Chapter 406 Autumn Wind Sweeping Leaves

In Zhengjing Village, the sky is dim.

When there are many people who have successfully opened up wasteland on a piece of land, and the sky and light cover each other, it will give people the illusion that this is not a new land.

Of course, the skylight in Xindi is not as dazzling as the sunshine in Zhengdi. The skylight in various plots is intertwined, which is not much different from the dawn in Zhengdi.

How many plots of land have been successfully developed near Zhengjing Village?

This matter needs to be carefully calculated.

Li Banfeng led the pioneers to a forest, more than five miles away from Zhengjing Village. Many houses and a restaurant could already be seen here.

Some hunters came to Zhengjing Village for the first time. They were curious about where the ingredients for a restaurant would come from.

There are not many edible things in the new land. In the past, most of the food in Zhengjing Village came from oranges from the orange groves, fish from the lake, and some edible beasts.

But the situation is different now. Many cultivators have successively successfully opened up wasteland in the surrounding land, growing a lot of food and raising a lot of livestock.

As the food became more stable, more people lived nearby, including those who opened up wasteland, hunted, escaped from disasters, practiced Buddhism, and made movies... The houses expanded from the village to outside the village.

When they arrived near Zhengjing Village, Li Banfeng saw two old people sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village, playing chess.

One is thin and the other is fat and burly.

The thin old man said: "Are you going to move or not? You have been watching this move for half an hour."

The fat old man pushed the chess piece: "What can I do if I can't move? I don't know how to play chess in the first place. Why am I still pretending to be here when everyone is here?"

These two people are Shui Yongquan and Qiu Luoye.

Seeing Li Banfeng, Qiu Luoye came up to him and called Li Banfeng aside: "Lao Qi, you brought so many people with you this time, do you need help from us two?"

Li Banfeng nodded and said: "There is something really wrong. People like Duan Wuqiu and Liang Wucai have made a lot of contributions to me. I want to keep these people by my side."

Qiu Luoye smiled heartily: "You can keep it no matter what I do! Ma Wu borrowed A Qin and Huo Ling from me, when will I care about him?"

"Brother Qiu, I'm not borrowing, I'm asking you for someone, and I even want their deed."

"It's easy to say, I'll give it to you, but they are from Xindi after all. You have to discuss with Lao Shui and use more techniques to cover them."

Shui Yongquan stood nearby with a smile on his face and never spoke.

Qiu Luoye frowned: "What do you mean? Lao Shui, you still want to increase the price? Lao Qi brought so many people today, why don't you help me with this little help?"

Shui Yongquan shook his head and said: "Looking at what you said, I am not ambiguous about helping, but can we slow down the land reclamation for a while?"

As soon as he said this, Li Banfeng was stunned.

How could Shui Yongquan have this attitude?

Aren’t the local gods looking forward to opening up wasteland?

Qiu Luoye couldn't understand either: "Why slow down? What's wrong with you, Lao Shui? Are you confused after drinking the morning wine?"

Shui Yongquan smiled and said: "Don't be anxious yet, let's find a place to talk."

Shui Yongquan built a wooden house on his own property. He usually pretended to be a hunter and chatted with the people around him.

After entering the wooden house, Shui Yongquan poured tea for the two of them. Qiu Xiangxiang pushed the cup aside, looked at Shui Yongquan and said: "We knew that Lao Qi was coming over today, so we agreed to come out to pick them up together.

If I had known you had other thoughts, I wouldn't have come out with you. I would have directly welcomed Lao Qi to my realm. "

Shui Yongquan frowned and said, "Qiu Xiangxiang, what you said is a bit off."

"What do you mean? What do you mean?" Qiu Luoye was really angry, "Are you trying to reach a high branch? Are you looking for someone else to partner with you? Do you look down on me or Lao Qi?

It doesn't matter if you look down on us. We won't take advantage of you. Lao Qi, I'll give you all the people you mentioned. I'll find someone to help you hide their identities. I still have good people here. I'll bring them all in a while. You can do whatever you want. pick! I, Qiu Luoye, act with conscience! "

Shui Yongquan waved his hand and said: "Old Qiu, this is not a matter of conscience!"

"What else could this be?" Qiu Luoye pounded the table and said, "No one came to open up wasteland in our poor place. How many people did Lao Qi bring to us? If you climb a high branch, you will throw them away. Yes, your conscience allows you to take it away and eat it yourself?”

Shui Yongquan sighed: "To tell you the truth, in my land, there are 10,900 pieces in one mile, of which 900 pieces were given to me by Qiu Luoye."

Qiu Luoye waved his hand and said: "Don't tell me this, I don't understand!"

"I didn't ask you to do the math, I did it for you," Shui Yongquan took out the account book, "On my land, a total of more than 2,700 pieces of land have been opened. On your land, , more than 2,500 pieces of land were opened!”

Qiu Luoye's face was heavy and his eyes were cold as he said, "Can it be said that the new land opened here is less than that over yours?"

Shui Yongquan said helplessly: "Do you need to say this? You don't know how to count?"

Qiu Luoye lowered her voice and asked Li Banfeng, "Am I right? It's less than him, right?"

Li Banfeng nodded firmly.

Shui Yongquan said: "What I mean by this is that nearly 30% of our land has been cleared. If we continue like this, Neizhou will notice us."

Qiu Luoye snorted and said: "Just pay attention, what are you afraid of? We open up wasteland according to the rules, can they control it?"

"The rules are not broken, but our situation is special. We are in deep ground, not shallow ground. I'm afraid that something will happen to us in Neizhou!"

Li Banfeng was stunned for a long time.

What is deep ground and what is shallow ground?

Very easy to understand conceptually.

Shui Yongquan explained: "The so-called depth means the distance from the right place. The new land that is close to the right place is called shallow land. The boundary between me and Qiu Luoye is far away from the right place, and there are several new places in between, so it is called deep ground,

Logically speaking, the closer to the main land, the easier it is to transport food, so the shallower the land, the more people will open up wasteland.

Lao Qi, please ask around along the way. Is there any land god whose land boundary has been opened to 30%? How much of the land next to Green Water Bay has been opened? As far as I know, it’s less than 20%!

Now we brothers have reached 30% of the depth of the territory. How can Neizhou not know about such a dazzling thing? If they knew, could they not cause trouble for us? "

Li Banfeng was curious: "How can they cause trouble?"

"It's hard to say," Shui Yongquan shook his head and said, "They might send someone out to look for trouble, or they might destroy our contract."

Li Banfeng was even more confused: "You said Neizhou sent people out to look for trouble. Can people from Neizhou come to Puozhou casually?"

"That's not possible," Shui Yongquan smacked his lips, "but they must have other methods. I haven't found out what they are."

Li Banfeng asked again: "You said they could destroy your deed. Your deed is buried on your land. How could they destroy it?"

Shui Yongquan said: "Little brother, you have never seen the deed, you only know one part, but not the other part!"

Who said they haven’t seen the deed?

I've seen two!

Of course, this cannot be said.

Shui Yongquan took a pen and paper and drew an arch: "This is what the deed looks like. This is proof that the land god occupies the land. All the major and minor events that happened on the land are recorded in the deed.

When I defeated Qiu Luoye, Qiu Luoye gave me thirty miles of land. There is a record of this. If you don’t believe me, let’s dig up Qiu Elephant’s deed and take a look at it. Every stroke of it is clearly written. Chu! "

Qiu Luoye spat: "Bah! Why don't you dig out your deed and read it?"

Shui Yongquan continued: "Not only the land cession is recorded, but also the land reclamation. Each piece is written clearly."

Li Banfeng remained calm. He thought Shui Yongquan was fooling around.

He has seen two deeds. There is no record of land reclamation in the deeds of Bashanzhu and Bei Wushuang.

etc.

Is there anyone clearing up wasteland in those two places?

That place is much more remote than the land of springs and autumn leaves.

There had been no pioneers in the land of Bashanzhu. Nectarine, He Yuxiu, and Zhang Wanlong succeeded in pioneering the land one after another. At that time, the land god had become Li Furong.

There is a high probability that there is no successful land reclamation in Bei Wushuang's territory, so Li Banfeng has not seen any records.

In this way, Shui Yongquan's words should be true.

"Are you worried that opening up too much wasteland will attract the attention of Neizhou?"

Shui Yongquan said: "There are a bunch of deeds here. People in Neizhou must be too lazy to read them. Suddenly there is a large piece of text on a deed. Those people in Neizhou must take a look."

Li Banfeng couldn't understand again: "Where are the piles of deeds?"

"They are hanging in rows in Neizhou's library." Shui Yongquan drew another arch. "The deed is divided into two halves. We have half in our hands, and Neizhou keeps the other half. The two halves of the deed are added to Together, they form a circle. If Neizhou destroys their half, it’s hard to say what will happen to our half.”

This time Li Banfeng understood.

The lady once said that the words on the deed could be seen in Neizhou. It turned out to be because the deed was divided into two and both sides changed simultaneously.

Hanging in rows, if there are any big changes, it is indeed obvious at a glance.

The lady changed the mountain master into Li Furong. This change is not too big and should not attract Neizhou's attention.

Probably not...

Li Banfeng felt a little uneasy, and suddenly heard Qiu Luoye say: "Don't talk about the ring yet."

Qiu Luoye seemed a little scared.

Is he sometimes scared?

Qiu Luoye looked at the gushing water and said, "Old Shui, what are you going to do?"

Shui Yongquan said: "There are a lot of people in our world. I have roughly counted them. There are more than a thousand people coming and going. This is all due to popularity.

With popularity, we can build up our cultivation, so why rush it? "

Qiu Luoye couldn't understand the numbers, but he knew that more than a thousand people would definitely not be enough: "How long will it take to accumulate cultivation by relying on these more than a thousand people? According to your approach, when can we reach the third floor?" ?”

"Why are you anxious?" Shui Yongquan was very patient, "We have five times the life span of ordinary people, so take your time."

The second layer above the cloud has five times the lifespan. This is the first time Li Banfeng has heard of this concept.

But this matter is not critical now. The important thing is that Shui Yongquan does not want to continue to open up wasteland.

Qiu Luoye was silent for a long time and walked out of the wooden house.

Amidst the heavy footsteps, the dead leaves remaining on the trees fell one after another.

He turned back and said to Li Banfeng: "Lao Qi, bring all your people to my territory and prepare to open up wasteland. After that, you can choose my men as you please."

Shui Yongquan frowned and said, "Qiu Xiangxiang, did you listen to what I just said?"

"No, I didn't hear a word of it," Qiu Luoye answered very frankly, "Old Shui, if you want to wait, just wait. You can wait any time.

I won't wait. Lao Qi is a noble person. God has been good to me and allowed me to meet a noble person. I have to be worthy of God. I will do this to the end! "
