Wuhui City has become twice as prosperous as before. During this period, the city lord was concentrating on planning to expand the city territory.
And the root of all this is because of that strong woman.
Water butterfly.
An ordinary person who had just broken through the Qi Refining Realm, but possessed extraordinary business ability. In just three months, she built the prototype of a commercial town based on Wuhui City.
In fact, Wuhui City was originally located on an important transportation road, on the Qinggu border, and could run through the north and south, making it a central place.
There is even a canal connection to the east.
In the past, this was the area hardest hit by the demonic domain, so people stayed away.
Nowadays, the Tianci Sect has risen, the disasters in the Demon Realm have been averted, roads for the circulation of human goods have been opened one after another, and business has recovered sharply.
In fact, not only Wuhui City, but also many large-scale chambers of commerce have sprung up in other countries and in many other towns.
The communication of logistics has gradually injected fresh blood into the dry blood vessels of the northern realm.
Zhang De'an is the only golden elixir expert in Wuhui City and the city lord of Wuhui City.
Back then, he was in the Foundation Establishment Realm and was the city lord of Wuhui City. All the way to Jindan, he was still sitting firmly in the city lord's palace of Wuhui City.
Speaking of which, Zhang De'an's resume is quite rich.
When he was still a small soldier, he followed Hu Nanyang in various battles, and finally ended up under Li Jiuchuan.
But when Li Jiuchuan left Qinggu, he did not choose to rebel.
I thought that Li Jiuchuan would kill him when the Tianci Sect's army came, but who knew that Li Jiuchuan not only remembered him, but even gave him a few immortal foundation pills, allowing him to continue to govern Wuhui City.
Even three months ago, the current emperor of Qinggu Kingdom, Lu Xiu Ming, specially summoned him and asked him to manage Wuhui City well. Not only did he praise his political achievements, but he also gave him many rewards, including Yuan Douyu.
.
at this time!
Zhang De'an stood on the top of the city lord's palace and sighed.
The pinnacle of life.
The golden elixir realm that was once out of reach, a realm that was once only possessed by great generals, has been achieved by myself.
Under his own governance, Wuhui City was bustling with traffic, and taxes were rising steadily. In addition to the national taxes paid to the imperial court, the money in the city lord's local tax treasury was also rising crazily.
Zhang De'an finally had spare funds to buy Yuan Dou Jade, and even bought a Qiankun Ring.
All of this is thanks to Boss Shui Die.
Strange woman.
The bigger her business gets, the more taxes she gets. It’s really a virtuous circle.
Of course, it is said that behind Shui Die, there is another powerful person... Zhao Yuanwai.
This person's appearance is very similar to that of the Young Master of the Tianci Sect, but his cultivation is a huge joke.
Three spiritual veins.
Zhang De'an inquired about the details of Zhao Yuanwai. Three months ago, this guy came to Wuhui City and was almost beaten for a few buns. It turned out that he was the boss behind Shui Die and had just left the caravan.
Zhang De'an also questioned whether this person could be Shaozong who paid a private visit incognito, and he was also worried.
But in the end, Zhang De'an and several staff members studied for a long time and finally overturned all speculations.
Except for Zhao Yuan, he has nothing to do with Shaozong.
First, news came from the Tianci Sect that Zhao Chu was practicing in seclusion and preparing to break through the Nascent Soul.
Not only did Emperor Lu Xiu Ming personally say this, but superpowers like Li Jiuchuan and Jing Qingsu also said it.
Secondly, in today's northern realm, many young men are trying their best to look like the Shaozong. Especially among some wealthy families, this has become a trend. Some pills for fine-tuning their appearance are also becoming more and more popular.
There is no way, besides Shaozong's superior strength, his biggest feature is his handsome appearance.
Mr. Zhao has a similar appearance, so he must have taken a lot of beauty pills and spent a lot of money on them.
Thirdly, this member Zhao, who has nothing to do but holds a star-studded stone, looks like he is afraid of death. He eats nine meals a day, whatever is greasy, he is simply a big mess.
Analyzing it piece by piece, we can see that this member of the Communist Party of China, Zhao, is just a rich dandy who has no ambition to make progress.
Zhang De'an was cautious and even went to visit Zhao Yuanwai in person.
Very disappointed!
He is just a young master who only knows how to eat and drink, and has all the despicable behaviors of a dandy. He and Master Shaozong are two completely different people.
Zhang De'an talked about a few cultivation issues in a circumstantial way, but Zhao didn't know anything about it and didn't have any ambition at all.
"It's a pity. It would be great if Zhao Yuanwai really paid a private visit to Shaozong incognito."
"I heard that many people in the Tianci Sect got acquainted with the Young Sect accidentally, and then they got an elemental weapon and soared into the sky. It's a pity that I don't have this fate!"
There was an endless stream of horse-drawn carriages on the streets, and the construction work in Kuocheng was in full swing in the distance.
People's hearts are not enough.
Although Zhang De'an is very comfortable in the Golden Core Realm, he also wants to break through to the Nascent Soul.
Unfortunately, opportunities are elusive and cannot come so easily.
…
Night.
Shui Die followed Zhao Chu, inspecting the cargo one after another.
In just three months, Shui Die has bought three streets in Wuhui City, and the place is filled with cart after cart of goods every day.
These goods come from all over the world, from all countries and cities. It is said that the sea is open to all rivers.
"Well, expand well, expand desperately!"
Zhao Chu patrolled slowly, opening the carriage from time to time and conducting formal inspections.
Within half an hour, he became impatient and left carelessly.
Nowadays, the Shuidie Chamber of Commerce has a great business. Shuidie even hired 10 foundation-building level experts at a large price to protect them at all times. Member Zhao is also very proud, looking like a second-generation ancestor.
No one noticed.
As long as Zhao Chu caressed the carriage, the goods in the carriage would disappear.
In these special carriages, there are star stones transported back from various countries in the northern realm.
The Shenwei Imperial Court in the distance, and the Yutang, Dignity, and Yanmo nearby all have carriages like this sneaking in.
There was only one truck at a time, and it was mixed in with a large number of valuable cargo convoys. Even if someone knew about it, it was just a normal transportation of star stones.
"Don't worry, benefactor, our chamber of commerce has more and more trade routes. I am actively working hard to communicate with other chambers of commerce. There are more and more Star Spot Stone Guilds, and they are becoming more and more confidential!"
Shui Die looked at Zhao Chu's back and nodded secretly.
She didn't know what Zhao Chu wanted so many star spots for, and she wouldn't ask.
"Shui Die, do you like that pretty boy?"
In the distance, Wang Qianpo squeezed his hand hard, his eyes filled with jealousy.
"Brother Wang, you are overthinking. You know my experience. How can a dirty person dare to covet anything? Member Zhao has been kind to me, and I am repaying the favor."
Shuidi smiled.
"This...uh..."
Wang Qian scratched his head in embarrassment.
Speaking of which, Shui Die used to be a promiscuous woman, and this member of Zhao didn't seem to have any interest in the opposite sex except for eating.
"Shuidie, don't call you dirty, your heart is cleaner than anyone else!"
Wang Qianpo said quickly.
"Hey, I know, I'm going to get busy. I heard that Brother Wang is about to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm?"
Shuidi asked.
"Well, thanks to your support during this period, I have so many Qi Hai Dan."
Wang Qianpo nodded.
"When I was in trouble, you were the only one by my side. Thank you."
After that, Shuidie left, and Wang Qianpo looked at her back, feeling absent-minded for a while.
…
Night!
Zhao Chu usually lay on the roof drinking wine, and sometimes he would get drunk and curse a few words.
During this period, Wuhui City's surveillance array flashed less and less frequently.
Three months.
The two holy places have collected a large number of Tianyuan treasures. Being so aloof, they have long ignored the existence of this group of ants in the northern realm.
"Ji Chi Holy Land!"
"Linlu Holy Land!"
"Everything you took from the Northern Territory, I will take back ten times or a hundred times."
Zhao Chu drank the wine in the pot in one gulp, and his words were filled with a chill.
Tonight, the number of star spots in the star field in his mind reached more than 250,000.
Since contacting Jing Qingsu two months ago, a steady stream of star spotted stones has been mixed in various ordinary caravans and arrived at Wuhui City.
Even Nie Chenxi and Qingtian Yi secretly investigated his whereabouts.
But they found nothing.
These star-streaked stones are hidden extremely deeply, and their origins are unmistakable.
The northern realm looks calm on the surface, like a pool of stagnant water, but in the dark world, there is intricate blood flowing.
Car after car of high-level Tianyuan treasures also passed through Wuhui City and arrived in the hands of Yuanying, the core of Tianci Sect.
Long-term cultivation with high-level Tianyuan treasures is also a way to advance the Yuanqi.
Jing Qingsu sent back the news yesterday that his elemental weapon has officially evolved to the intermediate level.
"It's coming soon. There are more and more trade routes. Jing Qingsu and the others are also secretly digging for star spot stone veins. The eighth level of the Nine-pole Star Chart is about to be broken through."
Although Zhao Chu's telekinesis power has not yet broken through the third level, it is currently at the peak of the fourth level.
His spiritual power is much stronger than before.
At this moment, his thoughts swept away, and in the distance, a prison formation lit up.
Ten days have passed, and natural selection is monitoring me again.
Zhao Chu chuckled lightly, lying on the roof, looking at the moon and stars in the sky alone.
Those surveillance formations would never notice that a vast starry sky appeared in Zhao Chu's pupils.
His eyes are like a mirror.
The stars in the sky are twinkling, and the stars in his eyes are also blinking.
…
"This man is completely decadent."
In Tianci Sect, King Yueluo sighed.
In just three months, for a monk above Nascent Soul, a snap of the fingers is not enough time for a retreat to meditate.
But for a mortal, it is enough that things change and people change.
After Zhao Chu returned to mortal life, he did not practice secretly, nor did he find a way to restore his cultivation.
He is really like a mortal, enjoying the abundance every day.
Comfort will completely destroy a person.
King Yueluo closed his eyes, too lazy to look at the eleven disciples of Qing Jie.
As a large number of Tianyuan treasures were transported back to Linlu Holy Land, many Nascent Soul breakthroughs occurred in the Holy Land.
However, the one who took advantage this time was Jichi Holy Land.
The pre-selected saint picked up for free is very powerful.
At the beginning, there were other pre-selectors in Jichi Holy Land who excluded and bullied her, but three months later, Qingxuanle was already the backbone of the pre-selected saints and saints.
Some people even claimed that Qingxuanle was qualified to stabilize the position of the Supreme Saint.
…
Another three months have passed!
Two seasons have passed, and half a year is enough for people to forget many past events.
The people of Tianci City who were expelled at the beginning rebuilt a new Tianci City.
The brand new city has completely returned to its original order, with Huang Gongyi as the city lord. The people of Tianci City seem to have forgotten the scars of being driven away.
The Nascent Souls concealed the matter of the Holy Land, and the people only thought it was an ordinary catastrophe.
Tenacious people face a new life with a smile.
Now the entire Northern Territory is peaceful and peaceful, without any wars or invasions from the Demon Territory. The world is bright and peaceful.
A peaceful environment will stimulate the development of business.
Compared to half a year ago, Wuhui City has doubled in size. The old city has not changed much, but the new city has completely become the Chamber of Commerce of Shuidi.
The daily circulation of goods has increased a hundred times compared to before.
The City of No Regrets is now a city of miracles.
Under the vast starry sky, Zhao Chu was lying on the eaves with a piece of grass in the corner of his mouth.
His spiritual thoughts were like a hundred thousand spider threads, spreading to every corner of Wuhui City.
Just now, Zhao Chu's Nine-pole Star Chart broke through to the eighth level.
And he also consumed more than 540,000 star stones.
"It's not enough, it's still not enough!"
"I was too optimistic and underestimated the difficulty of the third level of spiritual consciousness. The eighth level of nine-pole stars is not enough to break through the third level of spiritual consciousness."
"However, I gained a lot from this breakthrough. Perhaps...besides the Tianyuan treasures, there are some other things under the veins!"
Against the backdrop of the starry sky, Zhao Chu's eyes became even more mysterious and vast.
For half a year, he has been carefully moving around the bottom of the mineral vein, like a thin layer of ice.
But as his spiritual power became more and more profound, and after Zhao Chu broke through the eighth level of the Nine-pole Star Map, the illusion he arranged also completely blocked Lian Tianze's exploration.
And deep in the veins, Zhao Chu always felt that there was something else.
