Chapter 682: Change
As for those servants and attendants, they were originally cultivators, and now they have all entered the foundation building period, and a few of them who only started cultivating later with the help of Ouyang Feng's magical exercises, and their progress is not small, and they have all cultivated to the high level of the qi refining period, I believe that it will not take many years, and there will be no problem in achieving foundation building.
Besides, those little children have grown up a lot in more than two years, the youngest has stopped having a runny nose, and the oldest is almost an adult, therefore, under the supervision of a group of old guys, the youngest children have also begun to cultivate, but these children are very playful, especially when they have nothing to do, they run crazy with Ah Zi Cat and Big Panya to the valley behind, and the entry of cultivation is not very fast, the highest is only the appearance of five or six layers in the Qi refining period, and the lowest is only two layers in the Qi refining period, and it has not yet started.
Speaking of Azi Cat and Big Panya, after the two guys successfully broke through and rested for a while, they began their unruly life again, except for eating and sleeping every day, the rest of the time was spent wandering around, and several times tried to leave home and go out from the valley behind, but to no avail.
More than two years, it is not a long time, but it is not a short time, Ouyang Feng and their retreat and cultivation have been very dull, but in the outside world, there are many major events that have shocked the mainland, and these have been learned by Ouyang Feng and others through Duode, who often comes to visit the door, and Yaheng and others, who come back from time to time.
First of all, with a steady stream of funds and sufficient supplies and a large number of manpower, the construction of Qingyuan City has basically ended, and now, the fishing village is a thing of the past, and a huge city has replaced the dilapidated fishing village and has become one of the few big cities on this road.
Moreover, because of the deal with the sea beast. The business of Qingyuan City is very developed. Merchants from all over the mainland have gathered. There are all kinds of shops all over the city, and with it, many tourists come to enjoy the different scenery of the sea, enjoy the beach and the sun, and some people are very interested in sea animals and deliberately go out to sea by boat. While going to several small islands around Qingyuan Island, I also watched the huge sea beasts frolicking in the sea, and this business was all monopolized by Captain Jack, who was in charge of transportation on Qingyuan Island.
There is only one reason why Jack can monopolize shipping, that is, the ships under his jurisdiction are all subordinate to the Qingyuan Guild, and the bottom of these ships has obvious identification marks. There is also the breath left by the ruler of the sea of Datou, and the sea beasts encounter these ships. You will know that these ships belong to friendly parties, and naturally they will not do anything bad to them, unless it is the people on the boat who annoy them, they will flutter a few times on the surface of the sea as a warning, if there is too much, such as some cultivators who feel that their cultivation is good, and they want to secretly hunt sea beasts, they are basically surrounded and killed by angry sea beasts.
For such an unruly person, of course, it is a death in vain, and the deck of the ship that Jack used to carry tourists is clearly famous for some things that need attention, and it is specifically mentioned that the consequences of angering the sea beast are at your own risk.
I don't know if you still remember Kuosang Island? It was one of the islands in the archipelago north of the original Ranjiao Island, which is now Qingyuan Island, and it was also the first target of Ouyang Feng and the others to counterattack.
Because the plan of the Centaur Alliance to attack from the sea was destroyed by Ouyang Feng, the Orion Alliance had already taken precautions, and Qingyuan Island became Ouyang Feng's territory and remained neutral, the Centaur Alliance had to give up this long-prepared plan, and the focus was put back on the mainland, and the Kuosang Islands were forgotten again, but Kuosang Island was not as quiet and unknown as before.
With more and more tourists sightseeing, and Qingyuan Island is not open to the public, these tourists want to go to the island to rest and play, so, under the coordination of the big shopkeeper Andoran, and the owner of Kuosang Island reached an agreement to open the Kuosang Islands, Qingyuan Guild invested, built a lot of resorts and a series of supporting facilities on the island, built the Kuosang Islands into a large sea park, and the tourists are very satisfied with this, the island not only should have, each building is high-end atmosphere, and the price is also very reasonable, so they have come to enjoy the scenery of Kuosang Island, enjoy the unique beach and sunshine hereใ
Kosan Island belongs to the Centaur Alliance, they have become a tourist attraction, and the defenders of Toothless Island, who are still alone on the desert island, look very red-eyed, but they have no choice, first of all, the Qingyuan Guild is basically not under the jurisdiction of the Orion Alliance, and furthermore, Toothless Island does not have the natural advantages of the Kosan Islands, and Andulan is not the kind of person who favors one over the other, but Toothless Island has a reef and a small beach full of gravel, there is really nothing to appreciate, even if it is developed into a tourist island, it is impossible to attract any tourists to go, investment, that is, there is no difference between money in the sea, and Toothless Island is very close to Qingyuan Island, for the safety of Qingyuan IslandAndulan didn't want so many strangers to land on Toothless Island.
In order to take care of the situation of the defenders of Toothless Island, Andulan took out a small amount of money to build several large warehouses on it, and also asked Yaheng, an expert in formation, to arrange a few forbidden ones to be used as the second warehouse of Qingyuan Island.
And the outpost team of Toothless Island finally has a part-time job, although the job of watching the warehouse is not technical, and it doesn't earn much, but it is a little bit more than what the alliance gave them, these sentinels who have been marginalized by the alliance are also satisfied in their hearts, and they also have more time and resources for cultivation, and their cultivation is slowly improving.
In contrast, the sentinels of the Kosan Islands are much more beautiful, they have nothing to do all day long, and they have more money in their pockets, so they go to some entertainment places on the island to pass the time.
Qingyuan Island, now this name has almost resounded all over the mainland, almost all cultivators and merchants have heard of such a name, but Qingyuan Island is very mysterious, except for some merchants who are close to the Qingyuan Guild, no one has ever landed on Qingyuan Island, even if they can't wait and see, because within a radius of twenty miles of Qingyuan Island, it is covered with all kinds of powerful sea beasts, even if there is a golden pill cultivation, it is absolutely impossible to sneak up.
Although most people have not been to Qingyuan Island, but some things about Qingyuan Island are still circulating in the world, some people say that Qingyuan Island is full of treasures, even if you pick up a stone and get it back, you can make an ordinary family turn over and become a local tyrant, and some people say that Qingyuan Island is full of all kinds of rare materials, and the precious night pearl or something is thrown everywhere, so you have to be very careful when walking there, if you step on one carefully, you will lose your family money if you are not enough.
There are still many rumors, although they are very exaggerated, but without exception they state the same fact, that is, there are countless riches on Qingyuan Island, but no one dares to do anything bad to them, because no one has that strength, and there are living examples there, even if they are greedy, they have to weigh their own weight.
In the first year of the trade between the Qingyuan Guild and the sea beasts, a mysterious guild that thought it was strong enough came to the vicinity of Qingyuan Island, and they originally thought that relying on the two Jindan-level wind magicians in the guild, they could sneak into Qingyuan Island with the ability to fly for a short time, and then snatch the ships of the Qingyuan Guild and take away the precious treasure. The plan is perfect, but the reality is cruel, although the wind mage is able to fly for a short time.
However, while they flew with the help of wind magic, they could not hide the powerful magic fluctuations, and they also underestimated the defensive power of the Qingyuan Guild, the two wind magicians swaggered and flew in the sky, crossing the blockade of the sea beasts, and just came to the sky above Qingyuan Island, they were shot and killed by more than a dozen arm-thick armor-piercing heavy crossbows that rose into the sky, and fell to the ground like a downed wild duck, turning into flesh, and not even a complete corpse was left.
The other people waiting outside the blockade of the sea beasts, but they didn't know that their hopes had been dashed, and they were excitedly discussing going there for recreation after this robbery, and they were covered by the magic of the sudden sea beast army, and in the end, there were a total of ten Jindan and more than twenty foundation building masters, and only three of them survived, and these three people were either missing arms or short legs, and at the same time, they were ruthlessly abolished by Yaheng and others.
In order to deter Xiaoxiao, Yaheng did not kill the three surviving guys, but sent people to watch them, hung signs around their necks every day, and wrote what they had done, and paraded them in the docks and markets to warn those who were greedy.
With the rise of the Qingyuan Guild, there are countless chambers of commerce that have come to discuss cooperation, each of which has strong financial resources and status, and at the same time, some small chambers of commerce that have maintained a good relationship before the strong aid guild has also begun to come to the door to pull relations, hoping to get some business, such as several business families in Ula City.
These business families are considered big businessmen in a small place like Wuwula City, but after coming to Qingyuan City, they are insignificant, those who run to the Qingyuan Guild Office all day long, any one of them comes out, they are all huge rich and business giants that they can hardly look up to.
Andulan is also the same as Ouyang Feng, he is a very nostalgic, very nostalgic person, for these friends who have helped them, and now the identity and status are rapidly improving the hot task Andulan did not put any shelf, enthusiastically went to the dock to greet him, and took a group of five people to Qingyuan Island for a visit.
The patriarchs of the five business families can be regarded as having seen the world, and they are also very pleased that Andulan still remembers this old love.
Along the way, Andulan accompanied everyone to stand on the deck to admire the vastness and vastness of the sea, and by the way, he also introduced some rare sea beasts that accompanied everyone to the side of the ship. (To be continued......)
