Everyone teased Zeng Xiaoxian again, but fortunately, Zeng Xiaoxian had a strong heart. Since he couldn't resist, he had already come to enjoy this kind of teasing in a unique way.
After having dinner with Hu Yifei and Zeng Xiaoxian, Zhou Yang transferred five million to Zeng Xiaoxian's account as the initial funding for the movie production.
There was still a long preparation period before the movie production began, and Zhou Yang naturally didn't have much time to stay in the Love Apartment world.
He told Zeng Xiaoxian that he would call him when the formal shooting started. Zhou Yang was just curious about how others made movies.
Leaving the Love Apartment world, Zhou Yang returned to the Multiverse Tower. At this time, there were already many customers in the Multiverse Tower. When they saw Zhou Yang, they all looked at him with awe.
After nodding to them, Zhou Yang walked to the second floor. As soon as he reached the second floor, he heard a series of discussions.
"Did you see that? This is the legendary zombie, transcending the three realms, not bound by the five elements, escaping the cycle of rebirth, an immortal existence," a wealthy businessman from the "Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" world said in amazement.
Being able to see secret manuals from various worlds in the Multiverse Tower was already enough to shock them. Now, even the legendary zombies were being sold in the Multiverse Tower.
"This is even more amazing, there's actually a ghost," a martial artist from the "Smiling, Proud Wanderer" world said, looking at a crystal bottle in the crystal counter with reverence. Inside the bottle, a black mist was constantly swirling. The Multiverse Tower could even seal and sell such fierce creatures as ghosts.
"What do you think I saw over there?" At this moment, a martial artist from the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" world walked up to the crowd with a proud look on his face.
"What?" His proud appearance clearly attracted the attention of many people.
The martial artist from the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" world cleared his throat.
"If you don't tell us, we'll go and see for ourselves."
Seeing him being so dramatic and teasing them, some impatient people pretended to leave.
"A spell, a spell from Mount Mao."
The martial artist from the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" world said.
"What?"
Everyone was amazed. The next moment, they all appeared in front of the crystal counter.
"Mount Mao Spell, basic spell, for catching ghosts and subduing zombies, value: 1000 value points."
Looking at the price tag, everyone's eyes widened. They didn't think the price was expensive, but rather that it was too cheap, just the same as a top-level martial art.
The Mount Mao Spell in front of them was what they considered divine magic, and it was so cheap?
However, cheap or not, they might be able to practice the Mount Mao Spell in the future.
"Ahem..." Zhou Yang cleared his throat to attract everyone's attention and explained, "This Mount Mao Spell only contains some basic spells. Moreover, in most of your worlds, it's difficult for ghosts to form, so you won't need the Mount Mao Spell."
Hearing this, the crowd didn't calm down but instead looked even more excited. With the store owner's confirmation, they were even more confident that the Mount Mao Spell could catch demons and subdue ghosts.
Even if there were no demons and ghosts in their worlds, there were in other worlds. They could descend like deities into other worlds to subdue demons and earn heavenly virtue.
Seeing the excited crowd, Zhou Yang didn't want to discourage them. Even if they cultivated the Mount Mao Spell to its highest level, they would only be as powerful as Uncle Nine, capable of dealing with minor demons and ghosts, but helpless against century-old ghosts or zombies.
"Store owner, can we buy a zombie?" a wealthy businessman from the "Romance of Sui and Tang" world asked cautiously.
"Of course, as long as it's for sale in the Multiverse Tower, anyone can buy it if they can afford the value points."
Zhou Yang reminded them, "However, it's best not to buy such dangerous creatures. See the yellow talisman on its head? If it's destroyed, the zombie will regain its freedom. The people in your world won't be able to deal with it, and if they are bitten, they will become zombies."
"Without emotions, without pain, without a future, without memories, they will be like walking corpses, unable to enter the cycle of rebirth, rejected by heaven and earth."
Those who were originally interested quickly backed off. Being unable to enter the cycle of rebirth and being rejected by heaven and earth was too much for these ancient people to bear.
Zhou Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that some ignorant and fearless person might buy a zombie and cause a "biohazard" in their world.
"Store owner," Guo Jing from the "The Return of the Condor Heroes" world walked up to Zhou Yang respectfully. He was respectful not because of the mysterious store owner but because Zhou Yang had helped him find a way to resist the Mongol army.
"Is there something you need, Guo Daxia?" Zhou Yang asked curiously, wondering if the Mongol army had attacked and he needed help.
"Following the store owner's instructions, I found the Bosuqiu snake in a valley near Xiangyang City, but I don't know how to raise it," Guo Jing frowned. The environment required for such a creature must be very strict, and any disruption could lead to the extinction of the Bosuqiu snake.
"Guo Daxia, you can seek the help of Master Yideng. He might know how to raise the Bosuqiu snake," Zhou Yang thought for a moment and said. In "The Return of the Condor Heroes," Yang Guo only briefly mentioned the appearance of the Bosuqiu snake, but Master Yideng could identify its species, so he must be very familiar with it.
"Thank you, store owner," Guo Jing bowed in gratitude.
"Store owner," a woman in green walked up to Zhou Yang, "I noticed that the Multiverse Tower is very busy. I wonder if you are still hiring staff?"
The woman didn't lower her voice, and the people around her naturally heard her clearly. Instantly, the atmosphere on the second floor was ignited.
"Store owner, I can endure hardship, I won't fight back if hit, and I won't talk back if scolded. I will serve the Multiverse Tower wholeheartedly," a burly middle-aged man patted his chest and promised.
"Store owner, I am knowledgeable, can write poetry, and can compose essays. Please take me in," a scholar hurriedly said.
"Store owner, I don't need any pay or meals. I will work my hardest for the Multiverse Tower," a thin man vowed.
"Store owner, my daughter, whom you have met before, can she do it?" Guo Jing even recommended his daughter.
"..."
"Sorry, the number of interns in the Multiverse Tower is already full. We won't be hiring any more interns for a while," Zhou Yang said, though he was secretly delighted.
Gao Yao, Bulma, and Sun Wukong were regular employees, and their compensation was handled by the system based on their contributions.
Zhou Yang naturally wanted to hire more interns, but the system didn't give him enough slots. He had to pay them, and who would pay? Only Zhou Yang.
Moreover, these interns needed a lot of communication. Gao Yao and the others could communicate in different languages, but other interns not in the system had communication barriers with most customers.
"Store owner, you can hire dimensional agents. We don't need any pay," a white man from the "Resident Evil" world suggested.
Seeing the crowd in the Multiverse Tower shouting that they would work for free, Zhou Yang wanted to kiss him, but unfortunately, he was a man.
Hiring more employees was something Zhou Yang wanted very much. Just like in the "Mr. Vampire" world, he could delegate this work to the dimensional agents of that world. He only needed to send a highly skilled Taoist, and his workload would be greatly reduced.
However, the idea of working for free, proposed by Zhou Yang, was very different from the crowd volunteering to work for free.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Zhou Yang "reluctantly" nodded.
