Chapter 620 This Is up to Me
At the entrance of a restaurant on Yunsheng Road in Jiacheng District, a man kept looking into the restaurant.
The waitress came out and said, "Boss, what do you want to eat? Come in and take a look."
The man shook his head. He didn't want to eat. He was still looking into the restaurant, which made the waiter feel embarrassed. This man is well-dressed and clean. He doesn't look like a beggar. What on earth is he looking at? Tang Yuan determined the identity of this person through surveillance footage in a temporary boarded house next to the road. "The target person appears, Team 2, take action immediately!"
After giving an order, a group of people went out and held the man down. The man was startled: "Tangyuan, what do you want to do?"
Tangyuan lowered his voice and said: "We are on a mission, Shen Jingye. Please come with us." Tangyuan's judgment was very accurate. This man was Shen Jingye.
He stayed in Hulucun for half a month and finally chose to return to Yuezhou.
This restaurant on Yunsheng Road in Jiacheng District is the entrance for Shen Jingye to enter Hulu Village. According to the rules of Hulu Village, where to enter and where to exit. Li Qi sent security team members to guard this place in shifts. As soon as Shen Jingye came out, he also I want to go back and see Hulu Village again.

While Shen Jingye was still feeling sad, detectives from the security team arrested him.
This made Shen Jingye very angry. No matter what happened, he was still the director of the Dark Star Bureau. How could anyone in the Bureau attack him? With Shen Jingye's cultivation, these security team agents couldn't control him at all, and it was not difficult for him to escape.
But Tangyuan reminded: "Shen Ju, it will definitely not do you any harm if you come with us." Shen Jingye said nothing more and followed everyone back to the bureau.
In the afternoon, Chen Changrui visited Shen Jingye alone. Shen Jingye could no longer hold back his anger: "Old Chen, what do you want to do? If you want to deal with me, do you have to wait for a higher-level document? At least remove me from my post before you can touch me, right? ?”
Chen Changrui turned off all the monitors and said to Shen Jingye: "Applying for the bureau, every next step is very important. You must remember that you did not come back by yourself. It was the Dark Star Bureau who spent thousands of dollars through platooning and squatting. I worked so hard to get you back.”
"Nonsense, which one of you is looking for me?"
"Applying for the Bureau, this is all for you. You must cooperate. I have a specific work plan. There are also detailed work traces from the Investigation Department and the Security Team. All our work can withstand investigation.
You must remember that while you were tracking Calabash Village, you accidentally entered the dark dimension and were attacked by unknown spherical creatures. I will send you the photos and dimensions of the spherical creatures in a moment. Be sure to remember it,
In the process of fighting unknown creatures, you found a source of water and some moss in the dark dimension space. Relying on this bit of food to support you to this day, the Dark Star Bureau agents found the entrance to the dark dimension space through repeated investigations, and took you from Rescued from the dark dimension...
Chen Changrui explained the incident in detail. Shen Jingye frowned and said, "Old Chen, do you know where I have been these days?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know, Shenju, I believe what I just told you is true." Chen Changrui said it awkwardly, but his meaning was very clear. Shen Jingye thought for a moment and said, "There is something going on here. I'm afraid it doesn't make sense. You found the dark dimension where I am, and you acted without permission from your superiors?" Chen Changrui nodded and said, "It is indeed an act without authorization. This is Director Li's order. He said that he acted without authorization. He's taking care of it!"
Shen Jingye asked again: "Now that you have found the dark dimension space, after rescuing me, won't you take the next step?" "The next step has been planned, and we will conduct an in-depth investigation into the dark dimension space. "
Shen Jingye said in astonishment: "Where can you find space?"
"It has been found. The light bulb and the others found it first. The tracker has been locked there. A special operations team even went in... Chen Changrui told the whole story, and Shen Jingye understood what to do next.
He was also a little worried: "If I can persist for half a month in such harsh conditions, some problems may be exposed."
Shen Jingye has always claimed that he is a white kid. He can persist for half a month in such a double beach environment. This is not something that a white kid can do.
Chen Changrui whispered: "Director Li has warned you, but you refuse to acknowledge it and say that you relied on your own fighting ability and experience to persevere. No one can find any flaws in you."
Shen Jingye was worried: "Is this all Bureau Li's idea?"
Chen Changrui nodded and said: "If you can't trust me, can't you trust him?" "Where is Director Li?"
"He is in San Toucha. During the period when you were away, we had a big incident, which was related to the entire Huan Kingdom. This matter was saved by Bureau Li."...
San Toucha, the city of sinners.
Li Banfeng, wearing protective clothing, stood on the city wall more than eight meters high, looking down at the city.
In terms of area and population, Sinner City is considered a big city in Puluo Prefecture, but seeing the buildings in this city, Li Banfeng couldn't connect it with a city anyway.
Almost all the buildings in the city wall are cement bungalows, with exactly the same size, shape, color and spacing.
This style reminds Li Banfeng of Qianliangfang, but the house in Qianliangfang has a human touch. There are stairs in the house and a yard outside the door, and it looks like a way of living.
There is nothing in the Sinner City. A cement house can accommodate more than 30 people at most. Looking at the height and size of the three-headed man, he can't even stand up straight in this house. It is really hard to imagine how these 30 people were squeezed in.
There are gambling houses, theaters, teahouses, wine shops, and dance halls in Qianliangfang.
There is nothing in the Sinner City, not even a market. Private transactions are a felony in the Sinner City.
According to Liao Zihui's introduction, there are only three types of buildings in the Sinner City, one is residential, the second is toilet, and the third is workshop. The three-headed man eats and sleeps in the residential house, defecates in the toilet, and works in the workshop. This is all their lives.
Li Banfeng said, "Do people from your customs office also live in such houses?"
Liao Zihui shook his head: "Our people live underground, including important materials, mainly to avoid the sun. Brother Li, the people have been selected, and we should go to the station soon."
Li Banfeng looked at Liao Zihui, frowned and said, "It's only 20,000!"
Liao Zihui nodded and said, "It's 20,000, the approval from the top is 20,000, and the rest will be discussed in the car."
Li Banfeng prevented the spread of fungi from Neizhou in Huanguo, and obtained special drugs and cured most of the patients. For this credit, Waizhou was not ambiguous about the reward. They first allocated 20,000 Santou people to Li Qi, and also gave Li Qi the right to free trade in Santoucha.
This free trade right is not small. In the past, the four major families did not have the power to enter Santoucha at will. Going to Santoucha once required approval from the customs office. If you want to do business in Santoucha, you have to go through a very complicated application process.
Li Banfeng didn't quite understand at first, what good things are there in Santoucha, and why do you want to do business here?
After asking Ma Wu, Li Banfeng realized that there are so many good things here. Due to the long-term erosion of the sky, there are a lot of rare treasures here. Find a few stones on the mountain and grind them into powder, which can be used as medicine to accumulate Daoyuan.
Moreover, all industrial products in Santoucha are very cheap, mainly because Santoucha has sufficient labor.
In addition to these two rewards, Li Banfeng's position has also been promoted. He is now a whole level higher than Shen Jingye and half a level higher than Guan Zhengyang. It stands to reason that the position must be adjusted when the rank changes, but Li Banfeng refused to adjust his position. He insisted on staying in the Dark Star Bureau.
In fact, Li Banfeng didn't care too much about the job. He was still concerned about the three heads. The upper level approved 20,000, which was indeed in place, but Liao Zihui still owed him. "Shen Jingye has returned. Where are the three heads you promised to give me?" Liao Zihui said, "The three heads in the Sinner City all have identities and are registered one by one. You asked me to give you 10,000 people. How can I have the courage to do that?" Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Are you kidding me?" Liao Zihui shook his head repeatedly, "Director Li, this is too polite. I have been in Pro Province for so many years. I am a nail. How can I deny my words? I dare not give the three heads in the city, but there are plenty of three heads outside the city. I have already selected these 10,000 people. This train will send them to you!" This attitude is still decent. Li Banfeng was worried that there was something else going on here, so he asked first: "What's the difference between the three-headed people in the city and outside the city?"
"In terms of appearance and physique, there is actually no big difference, but the three-headed people outside the city have no food to eat, and they are always hungry, so they are thinner than the people in the city." "You mean, people outside the city live worse than people in the city?"
"That's not right!" Liao Zihui nodded repeatedly, "Go to Shangsantoucha and ask around. How difficult is it to have a full meal? How many people can risk their lives for a meal?"
"How many three-headed people are there outside the city?"
"I don't know. Some say there are 300,000 to 500,000, some say 600,000 to 700,000, and some say around a million. They have no identity and live in a place with no identity. Without a fixed place to stay, they don't want to enter the City of Sinners, and they can't leave Santoucha, so they can only fend for themselves here."
Li Banfeng suspected that they might not be unable to get out, and Santoucha should have a special entrance and exit: "I heard that many poor people come to Santoucha every year to enter the physical practice. Do these people have to apply for a road permit through the Customs Defense Office?"
Liao Zihui shook his head and said: "If they have money to apply for a road permit, they don't have to be physical practitioners. The way they come to Santoucha is generally to steal the line by trucks.
Santoucha does not produce coal, and there are trucks carrying coal going in every day. As long as they pay two dollars to the coal escort, they can send people to the car when the coal is loaded. "Li Banfeng has also experienced the matter of lying on the coal car, and more than once.
Liao Zihui continued, "Santoucha has to send out a lot of goods every day, and it is not difficult to send people out of Santoucha. However, no matter how brave the escorts are, they dare not send the three-headed people out. Once they are discovered, they will lose their jobs and go to jail. So, brother, I am really taking a big risk to send you these 10,000 three-headed people."
After a while, Deputy General Envoy Tang Huanjie got on the car and said to Liao Zihui, "General Envoy, the goods are loaded." Liao Zihui ordered to drive, and the 30,000 three-headed people and Li Banfeng arrived at Lushui City together.
As before, Liao Zihui arranged a steam car to transport the three-headed people all the way to Sheqiao Village. When they arrived at the village, Liao Zihui completed the task and took people back to the customs defense hall.
There were too many three-headed people this time, and all expenses had to be prepared in advance. Fortunately, there were people to meet them here. Xiao Yeci and Lu Chunying brought people here, and Juanzi from Qiqiu City also brought people here.
Juanzi came from the City of Sinners, and she knew many of the three-headed men who came this time.
She led everyone to thank Li Qi, and all three people knelt on the ground to kowtow to Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng's eyebrows stood up on the spot. Mengzi greeted quickly: "What are you doing? Get up, Master Qi won't let you kowtow!"
It was quite difficult to lift up 30,000 people. Li Banfeng asked Juanzi: "How do you usually manage these people?"
Juanzi replied: "When we were in the Sinner City, every time we asked, there was a person in charge, called the house chief. There was a house chief for every house, and there was a third house chief for every three houses. If one person makes a mistake, three house visits will lead to the same crime. ...
"Okay!" Li Banfeng waved his hands repeatedly. This management model sounded uncomfortable, "We won't build any houses. A hundred people will be appointed a centurion, and a thousand people will be appointed a commander of a thousand. The commander of a thousand will be appointed by our Qiuqiu City. Each person is in charge, roughly divide the meal into one, and arrange for everyone to eat first. "
The first meal of steamed buns and cooked food was very simple, but this meal was very luxurious for the three-headed people, especially the three-headed people outside Sinner City. They had not had a full meal for a long time, and their health was worse than the three-headed people in the city. The leader was much thinner, so they were only willing to eat half of the meal, and hid the remaining half on their bodies for the next meal.
Xiao Yeci and Lu Chunying arranged a place for the three-headed people to live in. They were busy and contributed a lot.
Every time the three-headed men came, these two women helped a lot. It would be unreasonable for Li Banfeng not to express his gratitude.
But the situation of the Lu family is a bit special. Lu Chunying is taking pills and practicing diligently every day. Currently, she is only a second-level travel practitioner. Xiao Yeci barely reached the third level and has not learned the techniques yet. If these two women were forced to take over the land, they would definitely not be able to hold it, but Li Banfeng still allocated two thousand people to Lu Chunying, and they used these men to open up the wasteland.
The next morning, another group of guests came to Sheqiao Village.
Sha Dingzhong, Rong Sijiao, Xie Laizi, Banma, Dui Shuangliu, and a group of local gods from the new land came. Some of them brought elixirs and some brought magic weapons, claiming to congratulate Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng could tell the intention at a glance. These local gods were all coming for the three-headed man.
Sha Dingzhong was the oldest and was the first to stand up to discuss business with Li Banfeng: "Those who followed Qi Ye earlier were all very popular, but we few had no vision and couldn't even catch up on the soup.
Now Master Qi has brought another good helper. If we haven’t touched this fortune yet, we have to rely on our own ignorance.
Seventh Master, we will take care of the He family's territory, we will help with the Chu family's territory, not to mention the Fifth Master's territory. Whenever something happens, we will do our best to help.
I'd also like to trouble Master Qi to take a group of people to our territory and open up a few more pieces of land on our territory so that we can see the light. From now on, Master Qi will be here to tell you the truth, and we will be ready to listen to your orders at any time. "
Puozhou spoke openly and crisply, which was very pleasant to Li Banfeng's ears. But the scolding street woman glanced at Li Banfeng and shook her head slightly.
The other earth gods expressed their willingness to follow Li Qi in the future. Li Qi neither agreed nor said he would not agree. He found someone to arrange a meal for the earth gods. He found a private house and called a few of his close friends and relatives from the new land. They discuss countermeasures.
These people are Street Woman, Liang Wucai, Baishou Lian, Peeping in Bafang and Chi Liuhe. They were all Qiu Luoye's subordinates originally. There is also Duan Wuchou who has been by Ma Wu's side and didn't come today.
These people have been in Xindi for many years and are familiar with the conduct of these earth gods.
The street-swearing woman spoke first: "Master Qi, don't listen to Sha Dingzhong's nice words. This man behaves like a sand man, so you must be careful." "What is a sand man's style?"
The scolding street woman said: "Whenever you ask him to do something, he will definitely stir up a gust of wind and sand, covering the sky and making it look very powerful. When the dust settles, a layer of floating soil will be added, and the situation will remain the same."
Liang Wucai knew something about Rong Sijiao, and Liang Wuxian said: "Master Qi, Rong Sijiao is a capricious person. He used to be brothers to Master Qiu, but later he fell out with Master Qiu because of a trivial matter.
It would be fine if he told the matter face to face, but he had to wait for Master Qiu to stab him in the back during the war.
Mr. Qiu had just been defeated by Mr. Shui at that time, and there were not many people left under his command. He led his men and ran over to poach the ten miles of land from Mr. Qiu. Li Banfeng frowned: "Did Brother Qiu give it to him?" "
Liangwu shook his head and said: "Master Qiu didn't give it, so I was ready to fight him desperately. At the critical moment, it was Master Shui who set a trap for Rong Sijiao and tricked him into Master Qiu's realm. Master Shui and Master Qiu teamed up to beat him up." After a while, from then on, Rong Sijiao never dared to show his face in front of Master Qiu, and Master Qiu never blushed with Master Shui again." After hearing this, Liangcai sighed softly and said in a melancholy tone: "Master Qiu and Master Shui, these two men may be the couple in the previous life."
Hearing Liangcai's words, Liangwu frowned and didn't want to say any more.
These days, Li Banfeng traveled back and forth between Puzhou and other states. Some things were done too hastily, and he didn't even bother to understand some people and things. Today is the time to get to know Li Banfeng well. When Li Banfeng left the house, several local gods hurriedly came to greet him.
They were not in the mood to eat, and were all waiting for Li Banfeng's answer.
Li Banfeng asked first: "If I send people to you, are they ready for food and accommodation?" All the local gods looked at each other, and Xie Laizi spoke first: "I'm ready for food and accommodation. There are arrangements.”
Others Xie Laizi dared to say this, and they all agreed: "We are also ready, and we promise not to let you suffer."
"Are you all ready?" Li Banfeng smiled, "Okay, then I'll go door to door. Thank you, brother. Let's go to your house first?"
"Okay, okay..." Xie Laizi didn't have the confidence to speak, "Let's not be in a hurry. Master Qi, please tell me how many people you will give me first, and I will see if the accommodation arranged is enough." Li Banfeng said: " You must have an idea of the accommodation you arranged, wait until I see it!"
"There's no rush. You can watch it anytime. Let's take care of that first..."
Before Xie Laizi could finish speaking, Liang Wucai walked up to Li Banfeng and said, "Master Qi, I'm very familiar with Brother Xie's territory. I'll take you there."
"Okay, let's go." Li Banfeng picked up Liangwucai and was about to set off. Xie Laizi stopped Li Banfeng: "Master Qi, I'm not ready yet. What I just said is that I have this job." mind.”
Everyone nodded together: "We all share this sentiment. These three-headed monsters are your subordinates, Master Qi. We must not let them starve or freeze."
Li Banfeng put aside his doubts, looked at everyone, and said very seriously: "They are not monsters, nor are they my subordinates. They are my brothers and sisters. I cannot bear to see them suffer."
When he said these words, everyone around him looked over. The three heads all suspected that they had heard wrongly. Li Qi actually called them brothers and sisters.
Li Banfeng looked at a group of land gods, and then said: "Excuse me, everyone, go back and tidy up the land. When everything is ready, come and talk to me again." Sha Dingzhong wanted to explain, but suddenly he heard someone shout: "Seven Master, we are ready, we will have food and shelter, and we will never treat our friends badly."
Li Banfeng smiled, turned around and called Baishou Lian: "I know a master in cooking and I've always wanted to introduce him to you. This is the one I'm talking about." The cook came.
Baishou Company hurried up to say hello. The two of them exchanged a few polite words before the cook got to the point: "Our young lady has been prepared for a long time. She has all the food, clothing, housing and transportation. She is just waiting for your favor."
The cook belongs to Meng Yuchun, and Meng Yuchun is also eyeing the three-headed man.
Li Banfeng asked the cook to rest for a while. He returned to his home and went directly to the station.
Meng Yuchun's boundary is connected to Li Banfeng's. There is a station on Li Banfeng's boundary, and it is a large station that can stop for an hour. Li Banfeng went to Meng Yuchun's territory. Without any polite greetings, he directly asked the reason: "What do you want the three-headed man to do?"
"Open up wasteland!" Meng Yuchun answered very frankly, "I also want to turn my own land into a legitimate land!" "Have you considered it? You have to think clearly about the consequences."
"I haven't thought much about the consequences. It's useless to think too much. Qiu Luoye didn't think about anything at the beginning, but he did it. I have to think about it all the time. Even if this opportunity is missed, I will miss it."
"Okay, take me to see the residence you prepared for the three-headed man."
Meng Yuchun took Li Banfeng to an open space next to the maple forest, where she built more than 500 wooden houses. Li Banfeng asked: "Did the monsters from the earth help you to repair this?"
Meng Yuchun shook his head and said, "Are you kidding me? I'm looking for weirdos in the land to build houses for land developers?
You ask them who is willing to do such a thing? I asked Zhang Wanlong to repair this, he has many people under his command. "It's quite a lot. It is estimated that one acre of land can produce hundreds of seeds.
Meng Yuchun opened the warehouse again: "I also bought food from Zhang Wanlong. It is enough to feed two thousand people for a month. After eating, I will go to Zhang Wanlong to buy it. Not only will there be food, but I will also provide wine and meat."
Li Banfeng was very satisfied with Meng Yuchun's preparations, and he took out the deed written in his home. After Meng Yuchun read the deed, he was a little stunned.
"Afraid?" Li Banfeng was about to take back the deed.
Meng Yuchun held down the deed: "Don't be afraid, I'll sign it!"
After pressing the bloody fingerprints, the matter was settled. Meng Yuchun asked Li Banfeng: "How many people are you going to give me?" "Three thousand, I will send people here after the year." Li Banfeng put on his jacket and left Meng Yuchun's territory .
..
Upon hearing the number three thousand, Sha Dingzhong and other local gods became restless.
Li Banfeng asked these local gods to go back and tidy up the land, but they refused to listen and forced Li Banfeng to give them an explanation.
The temptation of the three thousand three-headed people is very great, and the efficiency of land reclamation is quite impressive. More importantly, these three thousand three-headed people can directly gather the popularity of the new land to become a regular place. Qiuqiu City is a ready example.
Sha Dingzhong said: "Master Qi, you said that we were not fully prepared. We admit this. We came all the way and didn't bring back a single person. You dismissed it with just one word, and now it has been given to Meng Yuchun." With three thousand people, aren’t you being a bit unfair?”
Before Li Banfeng could speak, the scolding street woman spoke first: "Lao Sha, are you being unreasonable? The manpower belongs to Master Qi, and Master Qi can help whoever he likes. Do you need to look at other people's faces in this matter?"
These two words of scolding a street woman can't be scolded by Sha Dingzhong: "Master Qi, we don't dare to show your face. We are here to show our loyalty to you, but we don't know that you don't care about us." ”
This was so beautifully said that it made Li Banfeng unable to get off the stage.
The scolding woman looked at Li Banfeng. She didn't know how to deal with this situation.
Li Banfeng glanced at everyone and first explained Meng Yuchun's situation: "The reason why I sent men to Meng Yuchun is because Meng Yuchun has true feelings for me." "I also have true feelings for Master Qi!" When he said these words , Sha Dingzhong didn't blush at all.
"Okay! I believe in your affection!" Li Banfeng took out the deed, "Everyone, I have two conditions. As long as you agree, I will send my manpower to you after the year.
First, these people from San Toucha are my brothers and sisters. They can help you, but they are not your subordinates.
Secondly, since I help you open up wasteland, I have to make the final decision on some things on the land. The specific things are very clear in the deed. If you press the bloody fingerprint, I will send it to you after the new year. "
Sha Dingzhong took the deed and looked at it. The first article said: "No matter when or what happens, the land boundary shall not be handed over to Neizhou, and the land gods shall not obey Neizhou's dispatch."
Li Banfeng reminded: "Don't take advantage of any loopholes. Don't talk about handing over the land to others. Is it okay for others to hand it over to Neizhou? This is definitely not possible. It is written clearly at the back of the deed. As long as the land belongs to Neizhou, it will be considered a betrayal of the alliance." Broken promise!"
The Earth God stopped talking. Li Banfeng smiled and said, "If you don't want to sign the contract, then please come back."
Sha Dingzhong did not finish his words: "Master Qi, since you are sending someone after the new year, I will come back and give you an answer after the new year." All the local gods followed suit and said they would give an answer after the new year.
The local gods of Xindi are the most difficult type of people to deal with in Puluozhou, not because of their fighting power or their scheming, but because of their wavering stance.
Most of the local gods in Xindi only have half of the deed in their hands, and the other half of the deed is in Neizhou's hands. To put it bluntly, half of their lives are in Neizhou's hands, which is doomed for most of them. Most people cannot escape the control of Nevada.
Meng Yuchun dares to sign the deed, does she have a way to get out of Neizhou?
Of course she didn't. She saw Qiu Luoye's successful example and wanted to follow suit, but the cook was not too optimistic about the current situation.
At dinner, the cook and Bai Shoulian were cooking together. Li Banfeng had a feast and drank two glasses of wine. The cook said sincerely: "Master Qi, as long as a thousand square meters of Miss Meng's land are opened, she will probably be invaded." The state is on the lookout.”
Baishou Lian shook his head and said, "I don't think it will cost a thousand square meters. Look at the appearance of Rong Sijiao. This kid must be holding something bad in his heart. He will probably have to file a complaint with Neizhou within two days."
The cook sighed: "Brother, you are not only good at cooking, but also have good eyesight. I think Rong Sijiao is really capable of doing this kind of thing. How will Miss Meng deal with it then?" Baishou Lian advised: "Brother, don't worry, Since Master Qi agreed to Miss Meng, he must have made plans for the follow-up matters.
By the way, where has Master Qi gone? "
While the two were talking, Li Qi disappeared. ..
Chu Er took stock of the New Year's goods and ordered the land to stop land reclamation, and everyone prepared to celebrate the New Year together.
After calculating expenses and business income, the exhausted Chu Er was looking for Paramount's account book, and Li Banfeng handed it to her. Chu Er is no longer sleepy.
"Brother Qi, are you looking for me?"
"It's not just to find you, it's mainly to find your dad." Chu Er was not very happy: "Why are you looking for my dad?" "Business!"
Chu Er smiled: "What kind of business do you have with my dad? Do you want to buy me away?"
"That's not true," Li Banfeng shook his head, "I want to buy something more valuable." Chu Er lowered his head and looked at Li Banfeng with his eyes rolled up: "Brother Seven, think about it after you think about it." PS : Now is a good time, Li Qi wants to do something big.
