Chapter 266: In full swing Lack of money again
At the beginning of April, the cold in the north quietly receded, and a little green appeared everywhere, and some early-growing wild vegetables had begun to grow.
Xingchen Ling, three hundred orcs have already returned, and 10,000 acres of vegetables have also been sown. In addition, 10,000 acres of land, the pattern is still the same as last year, 1,000 acres of grain, and the rest is planted with sunflowers and sesame.
The construction of the new town is in full swing, the laying of the ground is finally completed, and the construction of the foundation has begun. The Duan family father and son were very excited, Jiang Xingchen asked for a lot of facilities, shops, bathhouses, restaurants, hotels, singing and dancing venues, and even large venues such as racetracks, which made the budget increase again.
The more work they do, the more money they earn, and the second tranche of five million has been invested one after another, so they don't have to worry about financial problems.
When the money is in place, the motivation of the craftsmen is high, so the construction of the town is progressing very quickly.
To the north of the Star Realm, in a large hilly area, thousands of people are clearing out weeds and low shrubs.
The villagers and lords of the other territories were shocked, could it be that Jiang Xingchen was rewarded again and expanded his territory, but he didn't hear the news.
Jiang Xingchen stood on the hill, looking at the thousands of people scattered on the hilly slopes to the north, and his heart was surging. Originally, he wanted to grow flowers in the hilly areas to expand the bee population, but without the permission of the Empire, he could not blatantly open up the wasteland, so he could only scatter the seeds and try to make the planting look wild.
Now with the Emperor's will, he can open up the land in a bright way, and the number of flowers will also increase greatly, which will be of great help to the expansion of the bee population.
As for the over-harvested three-thirds of the grain. Don't worry at all, there is still a month before the spring ploughing at the end of April, which is enough for him to make grain seeds containing vitality. It's handed over to the Marquis of Dingbei.
In terms of rhetoric, he has already thought about it, and it is still the same as last year, so that the world commercial house can get grain seeds from Xuanyuan Tianzong. Then swap it out so that your secrets don't leak!
"Brother Xingchen!" the little cat girl greeted at the foot of the mountain, her figure flew up, and she reached Jiang Xingchen's side in a few vertical leaps. It's staggeringly fast.
The old man watched from the sidelines and sighed again and again: "Genius, really genius." In a year's time, I didn't see how she cultivated, and she broke through the realm of internal qi and reached the first level of condensation...... It's all just in time for the first snow girl of the year!"
When I thought of Tang Chuxue. The old man couldn't help but be angry. He worked so hard to help her get the strings. But this girl didn't even send a letter, and completely ignored his words.
Jiang Xingchen, this kid's demonic assets, his future achievements are limitless, and he has a gentle temper, except for a little black belly, he has no other problems, he is definitely the best candidate to be a husband, what does this girl think?
"Brother Zhanhong, look!" the old man was depressed here. Catwoman stretched out her palm, holding a giant bee the size of her palm. The body releases strong fluctuations of vitality.
"Nima! The bee actually cultivated into a demon beast, it's ...... Those who are with the kid are all demons!" The old man secretly sneered, and then was stunned, and snorted twice: "How can I tell myself too!"
Jiang Xingchen and the little cat girl glanced at the old man strangely, and at the same time shook their heads in confusion, their eyes focused on the huge queen bee.
The queen bee broke her pupa last month, but Jiang Xingchen had just come back and hadn't had a chance to see it yet.
"It's so big, it looks really strong!" Jiang Xingchen was extremely happy, and reached out to take the queen bee from the little cat girl's hand, and a gathered vitality was refined and poured into the queen bee's body.
"Xiaoxiang, why did you bring it out, won't the bees blow up their nests?" Jiang Xingchen asked as he looked at the queen bee carefully.
"No, the queen bee I took away, the bees are at ease, hehe!" said the little catgirl brother.
The queen bee enjoyed the gathering energy, as if extremely excited, and vibrated her wings vigorously, making a buzzing buzz.
"By the way, has this queen bee laid eggs?" Jiang Xingchen asked, this was what he was most concerned about, representing whether the entire bee colony could become a demon beast.
"Eggs!But they haven't hatched yet, I've been collecting royal jelly these days, trying to see if I can breed a few more monster queens!" Xiao Xiang said, her eyes flashing with excitement.
"Okay, take me to see the beehives!" Jiang Xingchen held the queen bee and walked down the mountain with the little cat girl.
The beehives had long since been moved out of the cellar and placed in the back hills, where countless bees buzzed and fluttered among the early-blooming flowers and wandered among the wild fruit trees.
After Jiang Xingchen arrived, he opened the beehive, put the queen bee back, and then sent a large group of gathered vitality into the beehive.
There were more than 20 beehives in total, Jiang Xingchen opened them one by one to watch, and then released his gathering energy.
The old man didn't approach at all, he looked at Jiang Xingchen and the little cat girl from a distance, and sighed in his heart: "It's really evil, they turn over the beehive like this, why don't the bees sting them! Moreover, they can still command the bees to act...... It's okay if it's just the little cat girl, but it's also an orc, and she's born close to animals. But what about Jiang Xingchen, how can he do it?"
The ability of the two to command bees really made the old man envious. Go out with hundreds of thousands of troops, rush forward and back, and the enemy will be frightened without making a move, what a wind!
Gollum swallowed his saliva, though he also wanted to learn and try it. But when he thought of Zhao Danqing's tragic situation last time, he still retracted this thought.
After reading all the beehives, Jiang Xingchen also felt a little tired physically, and he gathered more than 20 groups of vitality in a row, and he couldn't bear the success of the Yuan Control Array!
"Brother Xingchen, when will the hillside on the other side of the hill be completed? With the flowers on this hillside alone, the development of bees has come to an end, unless it is summer, more than 6,000 acres of sunflowers ......" Catwoman asked quickly.
"Hehe!" Jiang Xingchen patted the little cat girl's head and said, "Soon, at most half a month, you can plant! In a month or two, flowers can grow!"
"That's great!" the little cat girl cheered, as if she saw the bee population expanding, and then greeted Jiang Xingchen, and jumped up and ran to see the beehive.
Jiang Xingchen shook his head with a smile, turned around and came to the slope of the back mountain, and entered the planting site of the Gousickle.
Now there are hundreds of spp., and the newly planted ones have grown up, and a small amount of sap can be extracted. The wall has also been rebuilt and enlarged a lot.
Han Xiaowu was here, and when he saw Jiang Xingchen coming, he also accompanied him in to watch.
Seeing the green and shining hook sickle, Jiang Xingchen smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, in his eyes, these were piles of citrine coins and yuan stones. Because of the method he invented, the juice of the sickle was divided and taken, and he could take thirty bottles of juice every month, which could be sold for at least 600,000 yuan.
600,000 yuan a month, 7.2 million yuan a year, more than growing vegetables. These 100 scythes have now become the main source of income for his business.
Told Han Xiaowu again that he must pay attention to safety, and Jiang Xingchen left with the old man to see the situation of the wild pheasant.
Because it is free-range, there is no change from the wild environment, and many small pheasants hatch from the wild pheasant eggs in winter. Jiang Xingchen walked among them, and from time to time he could see their shadows flashing!
After walking for a while, the old man suddenly pointed to a bush, and said with a smile: "Look at it, wild pheasant eggs!" Boy, your judgment is right, wild pheasants really don't just lay eggs in winter, they usually lay eggs too!"
"Take a few, let's go!Go back and make dumplings, it's best to eat leeks in spring!" Jiang Xingchen also smiled.
"Hey!" the old man readily agreed, and ran quickly to pick up wild pheasant eggs.
This year's weather is warm, and the leeks are already growing well in early April. Jiang Xingchen cut a large bundle and returned directly to the lord's mansion, and then wanted to go to the river in the back mountain to catch some river shrimp.
Dumplings stuffed with leeks and eggs, fried river shrimp with leeks, thinking about Jiang Xingchen makes me drool.
However, before he went out, Grandpa Fu came to the door.
"Sir, we have no money!" the first sentence of the meeting, Grandpa Fu was blunt.
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Isn't it, is there no money so soon?"
"Sir, do you know how much the seven hundred wolves can eat, at least three thousand citrine coins of meat every day! Also, the food of more than two hundred children is getting bigger and bigger, and the orcs are also back...... Now, there are more than 3,000 people clearing the land in the hills, and it's all money!" Grandpa Fu complained loudly.
"But we have a lot of inputs!" Jiang Xingchen frowned.
In addition, there has been no war for a long time, and the sheep intestines of Zhaojia Pharmaceutical are no longer in short supply earlier, and their income is also declining! In the teahouse, Sun Sanqiang wrote that a large number of newly opened teahouses have stolen a lot of business, and now the attendance rate is less than 60 percent, and the only good thing is the musical instrument firm, but it cannot make up for the loss of other businesses......
"Aren't there still candles and sap?" Jiang Xingchen asked.
As soon as he said this, Grandpa Fu's expression became even more serious: "Sir, the candle and the scythe juice will not be returned at all, okay! You are all smashed in the Moon Shadow Kingdom!"
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but show embarrassment, this time he went to the Moon Shadow Kingdom, and he smashed into it at once. Originally, he calculated, and he would not be so tight. But who would have thought that suddenly there were 3,000 more people to open up the wasteland, and all kinds of businesses were shrinking, especially the teahouse, and the seat had plummeted to less than sixty percent.
"That...... If not, let's take a part of the second money for the construction of the new city!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"Sir, this won't work, now the progress of the construction family is extremely fast, and the money must be replenished at any time!" Grandpa Fu shook his head resolutely. Originally, Jiang Xingchen said that there was no problem, and he was full of confidence, but now that he looks, he is almost speechless.
Just when Jiang Xingchen was also in deep thought, pondering a way to make money, Du Rushan suddenly came to report that someone from the world's business house had arrived and brought what he wanted from the Southern Wilderness. (To be continued......)
