Time is like a beautiful epiphany, always withering quietly when you want to appreciate it carefully.

Three days passed.

The town had become empty, and there was no one left to leave.

At night, except for Li Changjing's house, only the Su family in the center of the town remained, and the lights came out, and the rest of the place was pitch black and scary.

Some small villages and villages outside began to spread the saying that "Datong Town is haunted", and many people swore by it when they talked about it, saying that they clearly saw that there were a large number of ghosts haunted by Datong Town, with hideous faces, scattered heads, and green fangs, and they were all unjustly killed at a glance. Some people even say that the sound of gongs and drums is heard every night in the town, or the sound of some horns shouting to kill and charge, and they call these phenomena the most terrible omen.

Some parents have gone through the transfer procedures for their children, even the teachers in the school have resigned, the newly built hospital has been emptied, and few doctors dare to come back to work.

The town, which has been around for hundreds of years, is truly becoming a ghost town.

The local authorities sent many experts to investigate, and finally came to a vague conclusion: this phenomenon, which leads to the extinction of all living creatures, only appears within a five-kilometer radius of the town, in the shape of a circle, while outside the ring, everything is normal.

The solution given by the relevant departments is to carry out city-level construction within a radius of five miles of the town as quickly as possible, and pave all the ground with concrete, so that when there are more people and more residents, then the local traders will naturally buy the goods needed for life from farther away, and the tap water can also be picked up from farther away - in short, once the expansion is completed, the problem of the town becoming a dead place can be solved.

At the same time, the relevant departments contact the media and advocate foreign investors to come to Datong Town for construction investment, and the relevant departments must give the maximum return to the enterprise group that contributes money and effort in the early stage, such as buying land in the town, which can spend the lowest price; After the construction is completed in the future, no matter what kind of shop property is opened, as long as it complies with laws and regulations, all business licenses and other relevant documents will be given the green light and enjoy the highest priority service.

As soon as these preferential policies came out, Li Changjing was the first to respond.

Originally, he was ready to leave to return to Daye City, but after thinking about it, he still felt that he would stay for a while. After discussing with Liu Qingtan, he decided to take out all the three million funds that could be mobilized by the Changqing store, and also borrowed 20 million from Cheng Ruopeng, who was far away in Daye City, for a total of 23 million, all of which were invested in the expansion of the town.

The second person to respond to the call was Xu Huairou.

As the eldest lady of the Xu family, Xu Huairou made a few phone calls back, and the Xu family mobilized a large number of construction talents to come over and cooperate with the work of relevant departments.

The small hill on the side of the Xishan Yaotian was originally the object of razing, but Li Changjing, as one of the investors, also enjoys the land use right of the Yaotian - this is when Liu Qingtan first came, Su Bowen applied for it in order to win her favor, but later Liu Qingtan gave the right of use back to Li Changjing. With this dual identity, Li Changjing asked to keep the small hill where the medicine field was located, of course, it was very easy, and promised that the mountain would be built into a park in the future, so that it would be convenient for people to climb the mountain and the like, but the relevant departments not only did not object, but simply handed over the entire mountain to Li Changjing in the form of half selling and half giving away, so that he could use it reasonably for his own benefit and the people.

The third person who responded surprised Li Changjing, but it was reasonable.

Huo gentle.

Ms. Huo Jiasan, Chairman of Huo's Group.

Huo Qingrou, like Xu Huairou, took the initiative to contact the relevant departments, not only invested 100 million, but also bought all the houses in the north area of the town.

The addition of the two super families has caused an uproar in Daye City, and many people can't understand why the Xu and Huo families would fancy a small town that does not have much potential, even if the construction is successful, it is at most a third-tier small city, and if you want to really develop, it takes a long time to precipitate, such as Shenzhen Securities City, Gwangju City, Imperial Capital, Shanghai, etc., which one has not gone through decades to have the scale of prosperity and prosperity today?

In the face of many questions, Xu and Huo did not respond much.

And the Su family in the town, seeing so many investors pouring in, immediately smelled the hidden business opportunities, the concentration of the east area of the Su family, they killed and did not sell, and also contributed money and efforts, actively cooperated with the construction work, and strive to mix a white list, and when it was necessary for the relevant departments to stamp, they could give a green light.

More than 20 days passed in a hurry.

The changes around the town have been turned upside down.

What was once a crop field has become a vast plain, except for the West Mountain, where the medicine field is located, all the adjacent hills have been razed to the ground, and all kinds of large machinery work day and night, intending to complete the expansion of the area five times in three months, completely covering the dead area of the town.

During this time, Xu Huairou lived in Li Changjing's house, in addition to eating and sleeping every day, the most time was to watch TV in the living room, Li Changjing didn't bother to pay attention to her, in the mud not far behind the house, opened a vegetable garden, and sprinkled some vegetable and fruit seeds.

In the case that all the plants in the town are dead, Li Changjing's vegetable garden actually grows vegetables, and the growth is extremely fast, from seed to maturity, it is only less than three days, Xu Huairou is very surprised by this, combined with the situation of the medicine field in Xishan, she faintly feels that the reason why the town is full of strange things and the depletion of the spirit must be related to Li Changjing.

Of course, Liu Qingtan is very calm about this, a year ago, the medicinal materials in the medicinal field withered in a large area, and even botanical experts were helpless, and finally Li Changjing solved the matter by removing weeds. At that time, Liu Qingtan's reaction was similar to that of Xu Huairou now.

Not only that, Li Changjing also fenced off a place behind the house, raised some chicks, and let them chirp and peck here and there every day, and regularly feed and water, so he no longer cares, but unlike other townspeople, there is no way to feed them.

Another month passed.

In mid-October, Xia Keke, who had already gone to college, called back and asked what was going on in the town? Daye City was full of news about the town, and she could hear news about it dozens of times a day.

Li Changjing explained the current situation to her with a smile, saying that the construction of the town is much faster than expected, and the expansion of the area has almost been completed, and it will be completed in half a month.

Xia Keke secretly smacked her tongue, from a small town to a city, this is a very difficult thing just to say, she didn't expect to succeed in such a short time, which made her feel like she was dreaming.

In the end, Li Changjing told her that in another month at the latest, the two houses she bought would be able to get a very rich return.

Xia Keke just grinned and said that she believed in Brother Jing's vision, anyway, the house was bought, even if it couldn't be sold, it was a good choice to keep it for herself.

And just like that, another three days passed.

Li Changjing is quite idle, every day is to grow vegetables, feed the chickens, or after eating, go for a walk in the town with Liu Qingtan.

It's just that Xu Huairou will follow every time, and she will walk to the middle from time to time, separating the two, clasping her hands, swaggering, very domineering.

Li Changjing had seen Huo Qingrou a few times outside the town, and he was still a little surprised at that time, but he didn't expect that this beautiful woman like a stunner would come over in person. However, Li Changjing didn't have a good impression of her, and he didn't even bother to say hello, but Liu Qingtan went up and said a few words to her.

It can be seen that Huo Qing's gaze is quite complicated, and now the status of the evergreen shop is already in full swing in Daye City, and almost everyone in the circle of cultivators knows it. Lu Li, as the alchemist in the store today, has raised the quality of the pill to another level, plus the price of the pill is not rising, it belongs to the increase in quantity without increasing the price, so the business is more prosperous, I heard Lin Jia say that because the store is busy, it has invited two more salesmen and sisters, as for the Nantianmen in the Wanhe Center, it has long been a door, and there are few customers who go to patronize it every day, and the store is crazy about layoffs, and it is not far from going out of business.

Liu Qingtan sighed with emotion in her heart, I wonder if Huo Qingrou regretted her original decision? If you are still cooperating with Li Changjing, the former "Grant Changsheng" store must have spawned countless branches a long time ago, and it is more famous than today's Changqing store, right?

That night, after Li Changjing had dinner, he moved three chairs and took Liu Qingtan and Xu Huairou to sit on the roof of the building.

At first, Xu Huairou was still interested, thinking that there would be meteors at night, but after waiting for a long time, there was nothing in the sky except stars and the moon.

Li Changjing stood up with a bright smile.

In the night sky on a summer day.

The town is surrounded by a purple-green sheen, which is extremely magnificent and dazzling, like the legendary aurora.

The ghost town "Datong Town", which is passed down by word of mouth, appears in the air directly above the town, and a huge ginseng shadow that towers like a mountain once again, shining with golden light, towering into the clouds, overlooking the earth like a god and a man.
