Chapter 148: Family Business
With the wine recipe, Ding Xing began to refine a large number of 'Jade Emperor Jelly'.
He himself definitely gave priority to drinking.
In the past seven years, except for when he inquired about Hu Yanluo's news, he would occasionally go out, and the rest of the time he spent practicing in the cave.
Every day, I drink 'three-flavor snow wine' and 'Jade Emperor Jelly', refining both internal and external skills, and my addiction to alcohol is getting bigger and bigger, and of course, my magical powers are also increasing day by day.
At present, his cultivation is still in the early stage of the Xuan Fetus, but his mana is getting deeper and deeper, and it is estimated that if he concentrates on retreat for three or five years, he will be able to refine to the peak, and then he will be able to try to rush to the mid-stage realm.
His physical body has made further breakthroughs under the polishing of the 'Jade Emperor Jelly', once he runs the "Jade Demon Transformation", the original pale yellow skin will solidify piece by piece, like a crystal jade, glowing with psychic brilliance, making his whole person look like a white jade carving.
This is the second layer of the transformation of "Jade Demon Transformation", 'Demon Jade Radiance', after several years of tempering, he has completed the new transformation of the demon body.
His current law body defense is not much different from that of ordinary second-order demon beasts, and his external skills are considered to be a small achievement.
It's a pity that the 'magic eye' he got from the old demon with the pupil back then, he still can't refine it into the physical body, he quite likes the magic power of 'hand and eye to the sky', but he has never been able to do it.
He confessed to Ding Chenzhi, regularly went to Qishanfang to investigate, and paid more attention to the magic skills of the Fa Order, there was no news in the past few years, and this time Ding Xing was closed for another year, and I don't know if Ding Chenzhi has made any new discoveries recently.
Thinking about this in his mind, Ding Xing left the practice room.
Not long after he opened the cave ban, Ding Chenzhi rushed over to meet him.
He glanced at it and saw that Ding Chenzhi's cultivation had only made slight progress, Ding Chenzhi had drunk the 'Eight Fruit Flower Porridge' all year round, and his cultivation had only been cultivated from the eighth layer to the tenth layer during the Qi cultivation period.
This kind of progress is not fast or slow, the key depends on who you compare with.
For example, Shen Laohan, the steward of the village, was the same as Ding Chenzhi seven years ago, but Shen Laohan couldn't afford to drink the 'Eight Fruit Flower Porridge', and he is still standing still, and Ding Chen's cultivation is definitely faster than Shen Laohan.
However, compared to the inner disciples of the Qiongtai faction, it is definitely far inferior.
Last year, Ding Xing received a letter from Concubine Qiao Xi, who told Ding Xing a good news that she had built a Xuan Fetus, and said that her master Ji Zhenwei would soon replace the Great Patriarch and come to Mohe to take turns guarding the Qiongtai station, and she would also accompany her, so she could come and meet Ding Xing.
Ding Yingnan, who followed Ding Xing's side, and Ding Wangfan, who apprenticed to Hu Yanfu, are all improving their cultivation by leaps and bounds, in short, their cultivation speed is much faster than Ding Chenzhi.
"Bozu is about to celebrate his eightieth birthday, right?"
Hearing Ding Xing's inquiry, Ding Chenzhi was stunned for a moment: "There will be two more years, and I will be eighty!"
Ding Xing entered Jinlu Winery at the age of twelve, when Ding Chenzhi was already in his fifties.
More than 20 years have passed in the blink of an eye, if it is placed in the mortal world, Ding Xing has entered middle age, and the years are really unforgiving.
Ding Xing felt that Ding Chenzhi's lifespan was already quite dangerous, even if Ding Chenzhi took a lot of elixir spirit wine to nourish his body, as long as he couldn't build a Xuan Fetus, he wouldn't live to be 100 years old.
"Yu Ning has become her own son, she and Zhengqian have been by your side to deal with housework all these years, and they should be able to handle it properly, you don't care about the winery for the time being. ”
Ding Yuning had already married a few years ago, and Qiao Xiaogong of Shijing Tea House personally came to the door to talk to the matchmaker, and selected Qiao Zhengqian, a junior with good qualifications in his family, and directly let Qiao Zhengqian enter the Yuexing Winery.
Both husband and wife have experience in managing wineries, and they can completely replace Ding Chenzhi.
Ding Xing's meaning is to let Ding Chenzhi retreat and stop taking care of mundane affairs.
Ding Chenzhi does not have a sense of crisis that his longevity is about to end, he is already satisfied with being able to live to the end of his life, and before he dies, he can watch the Ding family grow stronger and stronger, that is, he smiles at Jiuquan, there is nothing he can't let go.
However, people fight for a lifetime, the gate of the Xuanfei period has not completely closed Ding Chenzhi, he still has a chance to rush through, he is willing to listen to Ding Xing's advice, but he said: "In the past seven years, my family's territory in Binghua Mountain has expanded tenfold, Yu Ning and Zhengqian can't control it, they are only in their twenties, and they can't focus on mundane affairs, which will affect their cultivation." ”
The new territory was all bought back from the nearby Xianzhuang.
Don't look at the Yuexing Winery has just been established, but the accumulated spirit stones are astronomical, no less than any immortal village of the Qiongtai Sect.
In the past seven years, a scissor has traded 'Wupi Daqu' and 'Jade Emperor Pulp' for Ding Xing in the Rolling Dust Mountains, and Ding Shaolei and his wife are far away in the Cangxia faction, and regularly trade spirit wine in Zhuzhuang, mainly 'Golden Dew Liquid' and 'Eight Fruit Flower Porridge'.
Therefore, Ding Xing did not use the spirit stones he collected from Mohe, and all the expenses for purchasing the territory came from the surplus from the sale of wine.
At present, there are too few children of the Ding family, and the recruitment of Zhuang people is very strict, resulting in the Yuexing Winery being vast and sparsely populated, and after another twenty or thirty years of development, the territory will continue to expand.
Unlike other wineries, what kind of elixir and spiritual fruit are planted in the Yuexing Winery is completely up to Ding Xing.
It can also be said that the thousands of acres of ice fields in the winery are basically cultivated on a large scale around the spirit wine required for Ding Xing.
For example, Bigu's 'Liuxia Wine' and Zhuyan's 'Ziluo Spring' were directly excluded by Ding Xingping, he felt that this kind of spirit wine was useless, and he did not let Zhuang people plant the required spirit fruits.
If the villagers lack this kind of spiritual wine, they can only go to the Zhuzhuang market to buy it, but Ding Xing has not treated the villagers badly, and every year when the harvest period comes, he will give a certain reward of spiritual stones according to the quality of the spiritual fruits and elixirs they pay tribute to.
Over the years, Ding Xing has drunk the 'Three Flavors Snow Spirit' and 'Jade Emperor Jelly' from his own winery, and the importance of the ice field to him is self-evident.
"Shao Lei went to Yuzhu Winery, there are no other children in the family, if Yu Ning and Zhengqian can't concentrate on housework, do you have to continue to take care of it?"
Ding Chenzhi said: "I want to call Shao Lei back from Yuzhu Winery, let him and Yu Ning take turns to manage the winery, and then I can retreat with peace of mind." ”
Ding Shaolei was sent by Ding Xing to the East China Sea to inquire about the news of Hu Yanluo, but in the past few years, there has been no clue at all, Ding Chenzhi felt that it was a complete waste to send Ding Shaolei out, so he wanted to recall the winery.
Ding Chenzhi saw that Ding Xing did not express his position, and said: "Zhen Zhi's predecessor of the Cangxia faction came once, her ink treasure was damaged, and she wanted to ask you to sacrifice, and she also has several friends, all of whom have found damaged magic weapons on the Mohe River, and all want you to help, these friends of hers are all from Xianzhuang under the jurisdiction of the Cangxia faction, you can ask them to come forward to inquire about the news." ”
Ding Xing originally placed Ding Shaolei in Yuzhu Winery, the original intention was to inquire about the traces of Hu Yanluo, and later Ding Shaolei took charge of it alone, and successfully sold several spirit wines brewed by Yuexing Winery into the Xianzhuang of the Cangxia faction, Ding Xing saw that he was keen to do business between the two villages, so he did not transfer him back.
At this moment, after listening to Ding Chenzhi's suggestion, Ding Xing said: "Nan'er went to the Cangxia faction, and when she finishes collecting the medicinal materials, let her return to the village with Shao Lei at that time!"
Ding Xing has cracked the wine recipe of the 'Jade Emperor Jelly', but the spirit wine of the jar of 'Huashen San' still hasn't found the original medicinal materials.
Ding Yingnan rummaged through all the Xianzhuang bazaars of the Qiongtai faction, and the herbs she bought back were useless, she had been in the territory of the Cangxia faction for the past half a year, Ding Shaolei was familiar with the local area, and accompanied Ding Yingnan throughout the process, which could save a lot of time.
