Yan Rong's huge harvest made the other major village owners who were watching from the sidelines moved, and they kept thinking about what they could use to impress Qin Tian.

Wu Sheng, Xiong Ba, Jiang Di and others first proposed to supply some grain to Hanquan Ling, but Qin Tian had already obtained a large amount of grain, and the demand for food was not as urgent as before, so he only agreed to exchange cold iron for food, which made Wusheng, Xiong Ba, and Jiang Di very disappointed.

However, the treacherous and slippery Kou Liang found a different way, and after he came to the Cold Spring Collar, he has been paying attention to the situation here. He found that although the Cold Spring Territory was quite powerful, it had a key flaw, that is, the population here was insufficient, and the ratio of men and women was seriously imbalanced, so he proposed to use the population to exchange Xuantie with Qin Tian.

Hearing his strange proposal, Qin Tian was stunned for a moment, isn't this human trafficking?

Just as Qin Tian was stunned, Ram Shen and Fat Man Yan Qiu agreed to Kou Liang's proposal almost at the same time.

This defect of the Cold Spring Collar was discovered very early by Ram Shen, as the head of the place, although he couldn't think of a way to increase the population. For example, let some people recruit relatives and friends who are scattered, or recruit some refugees who have been displaced to escape the war. However, these measures are only a drop in the bucket and do not solve the fundamental problem. Now that Kou Liang's proposal was in his hands, he immediately nodded in agreement.

The fat man Yan Qiu also discovered this problem, and the energetic guys in his troops always couldn't help but talk about some topics about women when they were resting, and if they made other people itch one by one. Although the fat man has increased the training method, so that these guys have no energy to think about it anymore, but this method can only relieve the symptoms but not the root cause, and can only relieve the symptoms but not solve the root problem. So when Kou Liang made this suggestion, he also nodded in agreement.

Seeing Ram Shen and Yan Qiu's reactions, Qin Tian finally realized the seriousness of the problem. Now the Cold Spring Territory has a population of about 10,000, and although the expanded Cold Spring Territory can fully accommodate more than 100,000 people, Qin Tian has never had a sense of urgency in this regard, and he has not realized the serious problems caused by the population imbalance. Only then did he know that the problem needed to be solved in time.

So Qin Tian also nodded and agreed to Kou Liang's proposal, but he also put forward some requirements, mainly that the population provided by Kou Liang must come here voluntarily, and they can't arrest people by burning, killing, and looting, otherwise after these people arrive here, they will not only not be good for them if they run away in three days, but will have a lot of burdens.

Qin Tian clarified the way of trading, the population provided by Kou Liang had to go through a separate assessment of the Cold Spring Collar, and there was no problem before trading. If there is a problem, then refuse to trade, preferring less to more.

For the almost harsh requirements of the Cold Spring Collar, Kou Liang was not too worried. In this troubled era, there are still many people who are hovering in hunger and danger, if there is a relatively warm and safe place in the cold spring leader, he believes that there will still be many people who are moved, so he did not hesitate to agree to Qin Tian's request.

Seeing this, Wu Sheng, Xiong Ba, and Jiang Di all said that they would use the same conditions to get a deal in Hanquan, and Qin Tian also agreed one by one, and in the end, even Yan Rong couldn't help but join the deal, after all, no one would think that the treasures on hand were too hot.

The various transactions with the Shanzhai Alliance are very necessary for the Cold Spring Leader. Through these transactions, the major cottages and Hanquan Tie have formed a de facto chain of interests, transforming the relationship between the two sides from the original hostile state to the current de facto alliance state, so that Hanquan has led a big enemy and an extra helper.

In the main mansion of the Cai family in Cai Yi City, Cai Yong was sulking in his study, this time the Cai family not only lost the most important Cold Spring mining area, but also put the entire monk elder group into it, for this reason many people in the family have great opinions about him, even the city guard Cai Heyan, who has always been very respectful to him, actually dared to treat him without pretense, which made Cai Yong, who has always been high, not angry.

"Dad! You are not at fault for this loss, it is all to blame Cai Hezhong for his incompetence and loss of the mining area, otherwise he would not have let some Xiaoxiao take advantage of it. Cai Zhen cautiously persuaded his father.

Cai Yong glanced at his only son, then took a sip of tea to calm down a little, and said, "Hmph! Do you think I'm angry about the occupation of the mining area?"

"Uh, my father isn't angry about this, is it because of the matter of the Changcai Group?" Cai Zhen asked a little uncertainly.

"Cai Evil Lao'er has always been fighting with me openly and secretly, although I am a little sad about the fall of the elder group, but it does not make me so angry. ”

"Then father, why is that?"

"Why? Hmph!" Cai Yong sneered and looked out the window and said: "I'm angry because my Cai family has suffered such a big loss, and the people in the family don't want to unite to fight the enemy together, but they make some small moves behind the back, trying to pull me down from the position of the head of the family." ”

"What? Who has the audacity?" Cai Zhen asked in disbelief, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would dare to think like this.

"Hmph, who?" Cai Yong laughed coldly, a fierce look flashed on his face, and he gritted his teeth and said coldly: "It doesn't matter who it is! Anyway, dead people don't need others to know." ”

Seeing the grim expression on his father's face, Cai Zhen was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, so he could only shrink aside and pretend to be a quail.

After Cai Yong finished speaking, he found out about his son's abnormality, the disappointment in his eyes flashed, and then he said to him: "You prepare for it at the end, your grandfather will come back in a while, don't be embarrassed in front of your grandfather, he hates waste the most, do you hear?"

"Ahh......h He's back to deal with the people in the mining area?" Cai Zhen asked with a shocked expression.

"Not only the gang in the mining area, but even the gang in Heishi Village must be disposed of together!" Cai Yong's face became more and more ruthless, and the fierce color in his eyes appeared frequently, obviously even Yan Rong and the others hated it.

"Yes...... But...... Doesn't it mean that monks who have cultivated above the foundation can't participate in the struggle of the mortal world? Grandpa is a real person in the early stage of Jindan! Will it be ......?" Cai Zhen asked with a trembling face.

"Do you want to say that the law enforcement team? Hmph! Now that the troubled times are approaching, they still have to be busy! As long as we move quickly and don't leave any tricks, then even if the law enforcement team knows that we did it, what can they do?" Cai Yong sneered proudly, he also knew the law enforcement team very well, it was not a monolith, there was a lot of room for activities.

"Oh! That's right, will the other Foundation Building Stage elders come back together?" Cai Zhen seemed to think of something, so he asked.

"Of course, my Cai clan has suffered such a heavy loss this time, and many things have been involved, so naturally the elders of the foundation building period need to come back to deal with it. Cai Yong already knew what Cai Zhen was thinking, so he continued: "Don't worry, as long as your grandfather is still alive for one day, what can other foundation building elders do if they have opinions? This world looks at strength, his father is only a monk in the late stage of foundation building, and he can't shake your grandfather's status." ”

"Then should we take this opportunity to ...... him too" Cai Zhen also showed a hint of ruthlessness on his face, and he asked by licking his lips.

"Hmph, it's up to your grandfather to decide what to do with it. You don't have to act privately, his woman's mother's side still has some strength. Cai Yong warned his son, who had more than enough success and more than failure, that he didn't want him to do stupid things recklessly.

"Yes, I know! Father!" After Cai Zhen was reprimanded by his father, the person withered, and he hurriedly bowed his head in response.

"Well, you go back first! Prepare well, don't be ashamed!"

After sending Cai Zhen away, Cai Yong sat back on the chair and pretended to sleep, and from his constantly changing face, it could be seen that his heart was not at peace.

Cai Zong drove his flying boat and took the other eight foundation building elders of the Cai clan all the way towards the Xizhou Continent. His face was serious, the news from Cai Yong made him feel very bad, he didn't expect that Cai's troops would be so corrupted, a group of copycat bandits and a group of miners could defeat them, and also wiped out the remaining Qi Refining Period Elder Regiment, which was simply a big joke. If this matter spreads, it will definitely become a joke in the entire cultivation world, how can this not make him feel bad?

The flying boat pierced the sky like a meteor, flying straight all the way in the direction of Caiyi on the Xizhou Continent. The atmosphere inside the flying boat was very oppressive, and Cai Zong's bad mood also infected the eight Zhuji elders in the boat. As a monk in the foundation building period and a strategic force of the Cai clan, these elders usually have a huge shelf, but now they have chosen to be silent one by one, they all look at their noses and noses, and they look like they are meditating on cultivation, and no one will touch Cai Zong's moldy head here.

The flying boat is a magic weapon specially used for long-distance flight, and because it is very complex to make and the materials are very high-quality, its value is very high, and it is not something that ordinary monks can have.

This flying boat is a treasure that was bought by collecting the savings of the entire Cai family for many years, so it is the common property of the entire Cai family, because the Cai family now only has Cai Zong, the only real person in the Jindan period, so this flying boat is temporarily used by Cai Zong.

Although the flying boat does not have much attack ability, its defensive power is very amazing, and the flying boat presided over by the real person of the Jindan period can easily defend against the siege of three real people of the same level. Therefore, this is a coveted treasure for any real person in the Jindan period.
