Paper, after all, it is difficult to contain the fire!

Especially, when Chen Xiong, a kid, didn't have much sense of secrecy at all, the valley manor owned by Chen Ying was quickly exposed.

It's actually quite simple......

After the New Year, the children of the Northland Jiangmen families, under the leadership of their parents, came to the Zhenbei Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, and by the way, it also meant to show their faces.

Those who can be taken by the head of the Northland Sect are naturally the most outstanding rising stars of their respective families, all of whom are descendants of the same lineage.

According to the usual rules, they are basically received by Chen Wu, the second son of the princess, and it can be regarded as an early connection of this age level.

Who would have thought, during the Chinese New Year, the barbarian side was not very peaceful, and a small group of barbarian elite soldiers infiltrated the hinterland of the Northland to burn and loot.

It is impossible to send a large army for this, but it cannot be left unattended.

As the lord of the northern land, Zhenbei Gong directly sent his second son, Chen Wu, to lead the elite men and horses of the border army to chase and besiege him.

Therefore, Chen Wu was not at home this year, so it was naturally impossible to come forward to receive the children of the generals who came to visit.

I don't know if Aunt Zhao's pillow is blowing in place, and Chen Longcheng, the cheap father, actually designated Chen Xiong, a kid, to receive these generals.

Chen Ying sat in the corner not far from the house's mother, and she could clearly see the fierceness in her eyes.

Tut......

He could only mourn for Chen Xiong in his heart, hoping that he could suffer less toss.

Here, Chen Longcheng and the housewife of the mansion, and the Jiangmen bigwigs who came to visit, as well as their family members, talked and laughed happily, but Chen Xiong and the children of the generals were making a fuss.

When the disciples of the generals saw that Chen Xiong was entertaining, they inevitably looked a little slack.

Chen Xiong was pampered by Aunt Zhao, and except for the two brothers-in-law and the third brother Chen Ying, the rest of the peers didn't care about it at all.

Not to mention, this kid's strength has improved by leaps and bounds in the past half a year, and it is when he is complacent, where can he accept the contempt of a cadre's disciples?

There was also that ill-intentioned guy fanning the flames, and in a fit of anger, he simply invited these disciples to the martial arts training ground to compare.

How could the disciples of the generals be afraid, so they naturally agreed to come down in a hurry.

When Chen Longcheng, the housewife of the mansion, and a group of guests rushed over when they heard the news, they were all shocked by the scene that happened in the martial arts training ground.

Chen Xiong was one against five, not only did he not have the slightest trace of defeat, but he even gained the upper hand with his rather fierce and domineering Thunder Running Knife Technique, which made it difficult for the disciples of the generals who were much older than him to raise their heads.

Chen Xiong used his hand as a knife, dancing out of pieces of knife energy, but it was quite shocking.

This kid didn't know how to hide his clumsiness, but he completely revealed his cultivation of penetrating the four strange scriptures and eight veins.

Those generals who were choked by the blow couldn't see it, but Chen Longcheng and the head of the Jiangmen family, where couldn't they see the depth?

That's what shocked them the most......

Chen Xiong is only how old he is, and he has the cultivation of the four strange meridians and eight veins, and his talent is even higher than that of Chen Wudu, the second son of the princess!

"Fourth brother, don't fight!"

Chen Ying knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, but he didn't mean to take the initiative to expose it, so he hurriedly shouted: "Father and uncles are here!" ”

Hey!

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiong, this kid was on the rise, and when he heard that his father was on the sidelines, his hands suddenly turned into an afterimage, and instantly blasted out eighteen sword qi, directly knocking over all the five opponents on the opposite side, and then he ran to Chen Longcheng proudly, and said with a smile: "Father, the child's martial arts are still in sight?" ”

"Not bad!"

Chen Longcheng nodded and said with satisfaction: "I don't want you to have such strength at such a young age, it's rare!" ”

It's so rare, it's just a bit of a demon!

The Jiangmen boss next to him didn't care about his own children, and he praised him continuously, almost blowing Chen Xiong into the first strong man of the younger generation.

Chen Ying chuckled and shook his head, turned around and quietly left......

He knew that trouble would be inevitable in the future.

Really......

After the door-to-door bigwigs and disciples left, before it was time for dinner, the mother-in-law of the main courtyard took the initiative to come over to greet him: Grandpa is invited!

Chen Ying's expression was calm, and he waved his hand to signal that Li Ma and Hua Hong Liu Lu did not have to worry, and then Shi Shiran went to the main courtyard.

When they arrived at the place, there were only cheap father Chen Longcheng in the main hall, the housewife of the mansion and Aunt Zhao, and Chen Xiong with a proud face.

After greeting the elders, he stood aside with bated breath, and did not mean to speak at all.

"Third child, don't you have anything to say?"

Seeing this, the eyes of the princess and the princess flickered, and she took the lead in asking: "The fourth brother said that his cultivation can improve rapidly, thanks to the treasure medicine you provided!" ”

"It's not a treasure medicine, it's just that the materials are quite precious!"

Chen Ying's expression was calm, and Mu Ne said: "The fierce birds and beasts in the hinterland of the Great Snow Mountain, I don't know why, one by one, their strength has increased greatly, and some of them are even stronger than Dan Jin martial artists, with their flesh and blood medicine, the natural effect is obvious!" ”

"How did you learn to make medicine?"

The expression of the princess's mother was still stern, but her tone was much softer, and Chen Ying's explanation was reasonable, but it made her less angry.

"In the miscellaneous books in the public library, there are a lot of medical books, and naturally there are a lot of prescriptions for medicine, I just draw a gourd in the same way!"

Chen Ying's expression was still wooden, and he explained unhurriedly: "Maybe it's because the materials are too good, even if my pharmaceutical methods are rough, the pills I make are very good!" ”

"Oh, I heard you say that, do you have other means?"

At this time, Chen Longcheng, who had not spoken, suddenly asked, "I heard that your valley manor has developed quite well?" ”

"It's okay!"

Chen Ying didn't feel strange at all, if the dignified town of Beigong, under the condition of conscious investigation, could not get the detailed information of the valley manor, he was not qualified to become the lord of the northern land at all.

He explained: "I am not interested in the Four Books and the Five Classics, but I have studied miscellaneous sciences, such as medical books, mechanical books and agricultural books!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and said slowly: "Use it to test it in the Valley Manor, the effect is okay!" ”

"It's not that you can, it's pretty good!"

Chen Longcheng continued to ask: "Then you can tell me in detail about the development of your valley manor, so that I can know it in my heart!" ”

The fart has a heart!

If you don't know, I'll write your name upside down in the future!

His expression was still wooden, and he nodded: "The valley manor is backed by the branch of the Great Snow Mountain, mainly to buy mutated fierce birds and beasts, I use their flesh and blood to refine qi and blood pills for sale, and use the silver money in exchange for the entire valley to rely on hired tenants to cultivate!" ”

"At present, the valley farm has 300 tenant households, and the population is about 1,500, and one-third of them are young and strong!"

"I have also used simple tricks to create a number of workshops powered by water power, which can basically meet the normal needs of daily necessities!"

"Right now, the edge wall is starting to be built on the other side of the valley, and there is still a little shortage of manpower, so I can only take my time!"

"Because of the manor's high price for the purchase of mutated fierce birds and beasts, where have a lot of retired soldiers of the border army gathered, as well as some of the disciples of the general branch, who specially went into the mountains to hunt mutated fierce birds and beasts, and exchanged some pills from me!"

After listening to his explanation, whether it was Chen Longcheng, the housewife of the mansion, or Aunt Zhao, they all felt that Chen Ying's valley manor was very simple.

They lost interest all of a sudden, and originally wanted to send someone over to take a look, or go over to see it themselves, but now it seems that it is better to forget it.

Chen Xiong's eyes widened on the side, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything.

Mingming Valley Manor is a pretty good place, where the people live and work in peace and contentment, the morale of the retired border soldiers and the children of the Jiangmen branch who are professional hunting is high, and the manor workshop produces an endless stream of products, and there is a thriving posture.

But in the mouth of the third brother Chen Ying, it is so mediocre.

What made him even more depressed was that what the third brother said was true, but it didn't feel right.

In modern times, this is a very well understood thing......

On the side of the valley manor, the upward channel is clearly placed there, and Chen Ying has also sown the seeds of the emigrants becoming stronger, as long as they work hard, they can eat enough and live a good life.

If you are more ambitious, then venture into the Great Snow Mountain to hunt mutated fierce birds and beasts, once you succeed, whether it is to exchange silver, or get a little pill for your own use, it is quite a good thing.

Although the number of retired soldiers of the border army gathered in the valley is only a few hundred, they are definitely the elite of the low-level soldiers, and they have all mastered the martial arts in the army that can be improved.

Because of the hunting of mutated fierce birds and beasts in the Great Snow Mountain, it can be said that the martial arts are flourishing in the valley, and that positive atmosphere can be very infectious.

But Chen Longcheng and the housewife of the Princess, as well as Aunt Zhao, looked at the valley manor owned by Chen Ying from the eyes of a normal fortress in the countryside of the Northland, or a small city, and naturally felt that it was ordinary and had no bright spots.

To tell the truth, although the Northland is vast and sparsely populated, the promotion channels for the people at the bottom are still quite scarce, and the best way out is to join the ranks of the Northland border army.

The resources of the major cities in the Northland have actually been firmly controlled by the gate.

The most important thing is that although the martial arts in the north are prosperous, the truly brilliant martial arts are all firmly controlled by the generals, and the common people and even the low-level soldiers of the border army have no opportunities and channels to obtain them.

In this way, a more stable class began to be formed, or a solidified class was more suitable.

It's just that the geographical location of the north is special, and it is a vast and sparsely populated environment, at least there is something to eat, so the contradictions between the classes are not intense, and the whole environment is relatively harmonious.

But the lack of an upward channel at the bottom makes the vitality of the entire Northland insufficient, and the atmosphere of the entire Northland is just like that, far worse than the thriving Valley Manor.

Chen Ying is clear about these, so he naturally won't take the initiative to break them......
