Watching Yongtai City's first mercenary loading into the car, Tong Ruoran said worriedly to Chentian: "Sir, have you noticed anything strange?"
Chen Tian looked at her and said helplessly: "The situation is like this, and there's nothing I can do about it."
Of course, what the two people were talking about was the Curse of the Cricket. In order not to be exposed, Chen Tian could only mobilize his spiritual power to activate his consciousness. In just a short while, his hair had already turned black to the roots.
Fortunately, everyone's attention was on the soldier mercenary, and they all thought that he looked like this because of his battle with Brahma Tianlin and the sacrifice of Yang Shou, so they didn't notice anything strange.
Only Tong Ruoran, with a heart as thick as a hair, could see Chen Tian's changes at a glance.
"It's not a big problem. I will pay more attention to it in the future." Seeing that Tong Ruoran wanted to talk again, Chen Tian immediately stopped him.
In the end, it was Tong Ruoran who said worriedly: "Hurry up and find out the whereabouts of Brahma Tianlin. Let's leave for Yanshan as soon as possible."
"Okay, during this period I will also pay close attention to the training of Yongzi Camp and Nanxiang Army, and strive to take action as soon as possible." Chen Tian agreed.
Get on the carriage and return to Huangdan City.
The lanterns in the other courtyard have already started to light up.
After Chen Tian took a shower, he began to review the pile of official documents as usual. When he opened the documents just handed over by the city lord's palace, he found that Yongtai City was on the right track.
The biggest sign of this is that the Agricultural Supervisor has collected ten thousand stones of summer grain and grass, which shows that more than 200,000 farmers can no longer borrow official grain and are completely self-sufficient.
In this way, Hekunmen's research on the iron-spine piranha has greatly increased the yield per mu, but the massive resources invested by the city lord's palace have not been in vain.
In addition, the Changhe Water Canal was successfully completed and the mulberry fish pond was officially put into production.
The silk textile industry developed rapidly, employing more than ten thousand female workers. The cloth weaved was of high quality and very popular.
In addition to satisfying Luwu Mountain itself, it is also sold to Daigui Mountain. If it is sold to the snowfields beyond Yanshan Mountain, every inch of cloth will be worth a fortune.
At the same time, the Beicaoxi caravan also submitted a document, saying that the plan to break into Gusu City was going smoothly. In addition to the most profitable salt and iron business, the Limen disciples' income from the performance was ten thousand taels of silver.
However, it was very expensive to win over the refugees, which allowed the squires in Gusu City to make a lot of money and barely break even.
Based on this, Chen Tian gave instructions, indicating that refugees were a top priority. As long as the conditions were not excessive, we would attract as many refugees as there were, and we should go ahead with it freely.
In particular, tenant farmers who are having a hard time living can redeem their lives. Even homesteaders with small assets can spend money to buy their fields and let them settle down in Huangdan City.
In short.
As long as it can attract refugees, gold and silver are not a problem.
Of course, Chen Tian was not panicking because of too much money, but he was interested in the incense and telepathy behind it. He could earn more gold and silver, but the incense and telepathy was not easy to cultivate.
Now Yongtai City is in crisis, with the Yin family sending troops in the east and Brahma Tianlin hiding in the dark in the west. If there are people here who defect to the city, they will definitely be true loyalists.
The moonlight is blurry.
Silver shines through the lattice windows.
While Chen Tian was busy writing, Zuo Huangzhong, the head of the twelve yinyun elders, suddenly reported: "Honored God, Liu Guxue of Zhinongtang requested an audience."
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】
"Enter."
"Meet the God."
"What's the matter?" Chen Tian waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to be polite.
Liu Guxue's dress is very simple, with only a simple elm hairpin on her head, which makes her green double-breasted skirt look elegant and refined.
"Reporting to the Lord God, I have noticed frequent unusual movements in Shanglin Garden recently. It is probably caused by the leakage of earth energy."
"Elaborate."
"I noticed that Sister Zhuyun's complexion was getting more and more yellow. After investigation, I learned that most of the bamboo forests used to improve the soil were in bloom, and even the bamboo insects began to flee and migrate."
Chen Tian was startled.
It's not because I heard Liu Guxue calling herself a concubine. Although she is now compiling agricultural books in Zhinongtang and can barely be regarded as half an official, she is still a prisoner of war and her status is almost the same as that of a slave.
Chen Tian was surprised that the bamboo forest was actually blooming and bearing seeds?
Bamboo rice is an excellent food and an excellent medicinal material, but after it blooms and sets seeds, the bamboo forest withers and dies immediately.
If it hadn't been for the approaching earth energy, the bamboo forest would never have sought death, and the sister Zhujun mentioned by Liu Guxue would not have become haggard in body and spirit.
Put it this way.
There must be guidance under the ground in Shanglinwan.
Chen Tian thought about it and felt that this matter seemed to be closely related to the Hetan Cave. Although Shanglin Garden was more than three hundred miles away from it, the last time he let his spiritual consciousness go to conduct reconnaissance, he could not see the whole thing.
So.
It is entirely possible for caves to spread here.
It seems that the exploration plan of the cave is to be accelerated. There should be more than just miasma mountain ghosts in it, there must be a bigger origin.
Chen Tian rubbed his temples and thought about the incident in the bamboo forest. He felt that it had something to do with Qianji Pavilion's massive burning of Guigen mercenaries.
After all, not only did Qing Niu have to work hard to dig out clay, but the kiln also required a lot of firewood. Both of these would definitely make the Tianzhu Peak that had just collapsed even worse. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it made things worse.
"God Lord..."
"Speak directly if you have something to say."
"If it is true that the earth energy problem cannot be solved, can the sisters be transferred again?" Liu Guxue was a little timid. Seeing the pensive look on Chen Tian's face, she was afraid of offending him.
The Fairy of Plants, Trees and Flowers is very delicate, and her life is thinner than paper. If she really bores the extraordinary strong man in front of her.
You don't even need to kill them with a knife, you just need to ignore them, and then they will all be gone.
Thinking of this, Liu Guxue's eyes turned red, and the danger of her life made her breathless, but she didn't know what to do. She relied on Chen Tian's words to decide whether to live or die.
"Don't cry, I have a solution." Chen Tian put down the brush casually.
He pointed to the chair by the window: "Sit down first, drink tea and calm down."
Under the management of Hekunmen alone, Luwu Mountain has already had a bumper harvest of summer grain. If the autumn grain is blessed by more than a hundred plant and flower fairies, the output in one season can definitely last two years.
Doesn’t it mean to make farmers happy?
Wouldn’t the incense and thought power also come rolling in?
A thought flashed across his mind, Chen Tian must carefully raise the hard-won grass fairy no matter what.
"God has the virtue of good life, and the fairies of grass, trees and flowers are the refinement of heaven and earth. How could Yongtai City ignore it?" Chen Tian casually comforted Liu Guxue, setting the tone, and then said.
"I will immediately call in the famous doctors from Liu Yintang to stabilize the condition of Ms. Liu's sister Zhujun."
"Later, we will find out the source of the earth's energy leakage. As of now, more than a hundred plant and flower fairies from Zhinongtang will step up their care."
"Hekunmen not only cultivates fertile soil for it, but also uses jade dew liquid to replenish nutrients to ensure that the branches and leaves will flourish."
"Jade dew liquid? Is it the treasure that the deity bestowed upon me a few days ago?" Liu Guxue was surprised and happy.
Chen Tian nodded: "That's right."
"Isn't Zhinongtang going to Shanglinyuan? The chrysanthemums and eggplants you see outside are produced by them. I don't need to elaborate on them, but you also know the effects, right?"
"I know, I know." Liu Guxue agreed hastily.
In order to compile a farming book, the god gave him two bottles of jade dew liquid, so that he was not severely damaged by the collapse of Tianzhu Peak, but instead improved by leaps and bounds after half a month of recuperation.
If the jade dew liquid is really applied to the sisters' bodies, their lives will definitely be safe, and it may even nourish their complexion.
Think of this.
Liu Guxue was overjoyed. She hurriedly stood up and thanked her repeatedly, knocking over the tea table and spilling water stains all over the floor.
