During this period, Emperor Flowing Pulp came four more times.

The Panlong Wasteland is even more vibrant, and the golden fields on both sides of the road are endless, waiting for a good harvest.

He Lingchuan passed by Tianheyuan and found that the autumn meadows had turned into golden fields, high and vast.

The herdsman's dog still recognized him, wagging his tail and swiping a cigarette, barking around the horse's hooves.

I heard that there have been several heavy rains in the past six months, and there are a few more rivers in the field, with nine turns and eighteen bends, silky and blue, injecting infinite vitality into the grassland.

The ecology of the wasteland is completely changed.

Whoa, two swallows skim the tips of the long grass, chasing the insects that are getting sluggish in autumn.

He Lingchuan stopped for a long time, unable to take his eyes off the beautiful scenery like an oil painting. After seeing the ten fields and nine wildernesses in the Bo Kingdom in reality, all this in front of me is really refreshing.

It's his second home, and it's getting better and better.

On the way back to Panlong City, he also found that there were two more new cities under construction in the wasteland.

He used to drink horses near the great lake, and set up hundreds of large tents, and flocks of cattle and sheep.

It's a ...... Tribe?

He Lingchuan and others specially went in to shop, which coincided with the bazaar, which was full of people and booming supply and demand. They also fill a bag of warm milk that you can drink as you go.

Incense, really incense.

Hu Min was surprised: "Let's leave for half a year, right?" Why has the wasteland changed so much? ”

As he spoke, there were several loud, whistle-like sounds not far away.

He Lingchuan thought that someone had blown the horn, but the children in the market cheered: "The elephant is here, go out to see the elephant!" ”

Elephant?

The door panel scratched his head: "Wait, is there this thing on the Panlong Wasteland?" ”

They had all been patrols of the wasteland, and had roamed the land all day, but at that time, let alone elephants, there was not a single mammoth footprint.

He Lingchuan walked out with the crowd, and sure enough, he saw a group of behemoths coming towards the lake.

"Wasteland Elephant!"

The creature resembled the mammoth, or woolly elephant he had seen in an atlas of another world, two sizes larger than an ordinary elephant, with a light brown fur with stripes on the surface, and four tusks bent forward, like spears, and extremely powerful.

Fifty or so wasteland elephants are about fifty moving Roshan.

As soon as they approached, they blocked the scenery behind them.

There is a white elephant country in Bega, and He Lingchuan has also seen elephant demons in Lingxu City, and before they go into battle, they will wear thorn sleeves or nail rakes on their tusks, which is very lethal to the cavalry infantry.

Of course, this herd of elephants roamed and looked very gentle.

The two female elephants at the front, both with grayish hair, are clearly the elder leaders. They whispered orders, and the elephants avoided humans and livestock and went to the lake to drink.

The children ran around the elephant herd, and they didn't care. Two baby elephants wanted to play with the children and were called back by their elders.

The "baby elephant" is also a foot tall, what if a human child is trampled on it?

A man on the side smiled: "These wasteland elephants come to drink water every day." ”

It seems that the tribal humans and the giant elephants are at peace, otherwise the atmosphere would not be so harmonious.

He Lingchuan turned his head and asked him, "Excuse me, where are you from?" ”

"We are the Bitter Bamboo Tribe." The dark-skinned, short, but stocky man had the distinctive characteristics of the tribe, "We moved from the south to build a new city here. Once it was built, it moved into the city. ”

South?

The countries of the South?

Ah Luo was surprised: "This is to obtain permission from Panlong City?" ”

"Of course. If the host refuses to accept it, where can we come? The man gestured to the herd, "They're the same." ”

Yes, with Panlong City's control over the wasteland, if it doesn't allow it, let alone this group of elephants, even Zhu Erniang can't stay.

Early the next morning, He Lingchuan finally returned to Panlong City.

Passing by the south gate, he was surprised to find that the swarm of three corpses and insects that had originally roamed in the urn city was gone!

Looking up now, it's empty and there's nothing.

Others couldn't see the three corpse insects, but He Lingchuan knew that they had always been an important support for Panlong City's external defense, and they could screen out those who had malicious intentions towards Panlong City.

Why did the Red General take them all?

Aside from being busier and more new shops popping up on the streets, the city is no different from half a year ago.

Zhong Shengguang was not in the official office, so He Lingchuan went straight to the Shulu Academy.

The bluestone pavement was swept spotlessly, and the wooden hibiscus blooming in the corner of the wall was pink in white, like the smiling faces of children.

The old laurel in the golden autumn gently spread the flowers on the thick wall tiles, and once the breeze nodded, there was a fall of laurel like rain, and they were raised.

When he saw Master Sun, she was leaning against the wall, the autumn light wore the bottom of her sleeves, and the fallen flowers were independent, contaminated with the fragrance of her body.

"You're back!" Her eyes were full of surprise.

There were schoolchildren walking by, and she couldn't give He Lingchuan a hug.

"I'm back." In the dream, they had been separated for more than half a year, and He Lingchuan found that what he missed most was her smile, "Are you happy?" ”

Master Sun nodded vigorously, and his smile was like a wooden hibiscus in the corner: "Hmm! ”

"Then skip class!" He took a cinnamon from her thick black hair, "I'm starving, go eat with me." ”

"Okay." Master Sun smiled and groaned, "Let's go." ”

Ay? He Lingchuan was a little surprised: "Are you still the master who puts the first teaching work?" What happened in the past six months? ”

"It's time to start the autumn break today." Sun Fuling glanced at him, "The big kids are going home to help harvest the wheat." ”

"Was there such a fake before?"

"It's only starting this year." Sun Fuling said with a smile, "Many of the new students in the Shulu School Palace are all residents of the new city at the foot of the Chipa Plateau. The academy there has not yet been built, so they are borrowing here for the time being. As you know, there weren't many crops growing in that area, but last year they started growing grain. ”

In two years, eleven emperors have almost changed the landform and ecology of the Panlong Wasteland. Even the most barren Gobi is full of grass, and the wasteland opposite Panlong City has been turned into farmland, what is impossible?

I haven't seen it for half a year, and new restaurants have sprung up in Panlong City. They walked down a street, and seven out of ten were new.

The tastes of the north and south of the world are here.

Sun Lingling specially picked one and took He Lingchuan's hand and went in.

This restaurant specializes in steaming chicken, a clay pot comes up, the bottom is stuffed with charcoal, and a lid is added to it, and the hot water steam cooks the chicken and mushrooms in the pot, and then leaves it as a soup base.

Raw and original.

"This way of eating is spread from the west, but the pot is made of terracotta from the wasteland, and it has been popular in Panlong City recently."

He Lingchuan smiled: "It's actually catching up with the trend here." ”

It's not strange that Yuheng City is changing with each passing day, how serious is Panlong City? The people here have actually become richer in eating, dressing and playing.

Sun Fuling whispered: "I heard from the dean that there were businessmen who wanted to open a maze array in Panlong City, but Commander Zhong didn't allow it. ”

He Lingchuan understood as soon as he heard it: "The sound of dogs and horses, Panlong City is still afraid." ”

Panlong City can't tolerate such indulgent entertainment.

Sun Fuling sighed, her eyes were full of curiosity: "You know? Have you seen it this time? ”

How do you answer that? He Lingchuan scratched his head: "There is one in the Giant Deer Country, but it's not a good thing, it's very rough." ”

The Maze Array is actually an illusion change, focusing on an immersive experience.

Of course, the most popular content is never described.

He didn't lie, the Giant Deer Country did have a maze array, but it was very inferior.

The truly well-made, fake-and-true Maze Array had only been seen in Lingxu City. The façade is exquisite, the service is considerate, and the deep digging up is actually opened by the powerful people of the family.

Addictive things are the most profitable, and easy money often doesn't make the turn of ordinary people.

He quickly changed the subject: "By the way, why are there so many new things in the city?" ”

"Panlong City has reduced its rent and tax again. In the non-war period, and in normal times like now, the land tax and grain tax in the wasteland are reduced and reduced in stages, and the commercial tax is halved, and the burden on everyone is much lighter, and more money earned can be pocketed. ”

When the tax burden is reduced, everyone will have more money left in their hands and dare to spend it, and the market will naturally prosper.

He Lingchuan Daqi: "Reduced again?" ”

When he first entered the Panlong World, Panlong City's taxes were very heavy - because there was a war between the two ends of the three days. Although the military and the people work together, it is true that everyone lives in poverty, and the material conditions are not ideal.

Unexpectedly, it has only been a few years, and the people's money bags have swelled.

"In the past two years, the emperor's slurry has been frequent, and the price of grain has dropped sharply. Commander Zhong said that now the Panlong Wasteland and the Maohe Plain are abundant in grain, and they can even be sold abroad, coupled with the development of commerce and trade, and the substantial increase in tariffs and municipal taxes, they can already cover the financial needs, and there is still a surplus. Therefore, he hopes that the people's money is not so tight, and everyone can live a good life in a down-to-earth manner. Sun Fuling said with a smile, "As soon as this notice came out, firecrackers were set off all over the city." ”

"I see." He Lingchuan was moved.

Panlong City is so active in benefiting the people, which shows that Zhong Shengguang does not forget his original intention and still cares about the well-being of the people.

Unlike many high-ranking people, they gradually got lost in the long-term conquest and intrigue, and let the people sacrifice and sacrifice to get used to it, and no longer remember to put the people first.

Governing the people with benevolence and righteousness, He Lingchuan seemed to have a glimpse of the extremely powerful essence of Panlong City's Yuan Li.

But after he was moved, he immediately began to think about the meaning of this.

Panlong City's accumulation has been less than two years, the territory and army are expanding rapidly, and the financial and military expenditures have increased substantially.

Wars are fought with money and logistics. This point, Zhong Shengguang, who has been cooking without rice all year round, should know best, why didn't Panlong City take advantage of the best time to hoard money and grain, and chose to hide the wealth from the people?

Commander Zhong kept his truest thoughts deep in his heart, and of course He Lingchuan couldn't know everything. But he is well aware of the final outcome of Panlong City in history, so there is a speculation:

Could it be out of guilt?

He Lingchuan immediately thought of another person:

Cheap dad He Chunhua.
