On March 20, a caravan came from the north, led by Su San, and arrived at the north entrance of Nanwu Prefecture. Gu Zuo had just sent away a few monks who had finished setting up the magic circle at the Eight Formations Gate of Pingdu, and he received the caravan.

Leading the caravan was the big shopkeeper of the Sanhe grain shop, Jindan monk Wang Sanhe. There was also a string of carts with the team, there were eighteen people sitting on the car, one was the head of the foundation, three qi refiners were assisted, and the rest were all strong men and women, with dark complexions.

Wang Sanhe personally inspected the land donated by Nanwu Prefecture, which was south of Shuangfeng Town and north of Shanliang, and was in the big array. Although the land has not been reclaimed, it is very fertile, which makes Wang Sanhe very satisfied.

The people of Sanhe Grain Shop were divided into two places, and fourteen skilled farmers began to build houses around the planned fields, and the remaining four people followed Wang Sanhe to take over the shop.

Watching Wang Sanhe take out more than 20 storage artifacts from his pocket, pour out bags of various grains, and watch these grains being stacked into the back warehouse, Gu Zuo's heart that has been hanging these days finally fell.

1,000 stone of grain, enough to eat for a long time, sure enough, I have food in my hands, and I don't panic in my heart.

Since the entry of Sanhe Grain Shop, a large number of caravans have arrived in Nanwu Prefecture one after another, which is the Yuanhe system cultivation sect that Gu Zuo has negotiated. The incense burner gate, the Hanshan faction, the ancient pond faction, the Wanqi Valley, and the Lotus Leaf Cave were all led by the head of the sect and stationed in their respective shops to receive the territory promised by Gu Zuo.

Even Shen Hongfu of Hongfuguan arrived with two disciples, and Gu Zuo promised to find him a place with elegant scenery and establish a Hongfuguan Courtyard, so that he could move his legs and feet in the future, and live on both sides in turn. After Shen Hongfu came, he went straight to find his friend Lingyuan Daoist, and the two disciples began to look for a place to establish another courtyard.

As soon as the Yuanhe sect arrived, Shuangfeng Town became lively. These sects are all small sects, and they don't have the experience of setting up rudders outside, but at this moment, they suddenly have shops in Nanwu Prefecture, and they all attach great importance to them, and they have more than ten capable monks, and they have the posture of rolling up their sleeves and doing a big job.

Each sect had disciples to tidy up the shop, and the head of the sect quickly gathered around Gu Zuo, especially Wang Hanshan and Gu Zhongchi, who were the most diligent and eager, for a very simple reason, they wanted to issue stocks.

That night, Gu Zuo set up a banquet to entertain the sect masters and proprietors, accompanied by the original governor. The banquet was set up, and even Wang Sanhe, who was the highest in cultivation, arrived, but Shen Hongfu did not come, Gu Zuo sent someone to invite him for the third time, but he still didn't invite anyone, but the Lingyuan Daoist passed on a word on his behalf.

"I'm busy preparing to open the third mine here, let Senior Brother Shen stay and help, your banquet will start first, don't wait for him. ”

Gu Zuo was very embarrassed, and said to everyone: "I have few people here, and the matter of mining is more urgent, Lord Shen Guan was left by the Lingyuan Daoist to mine, I'm sorry." But it's okay, let's drink first. ”

Wang Hanshan immediately said: "Pavilion Master Gu is not polite, our Yuanhe sect is watching and helping each other, you need manpower here Although I said, our Hanshan has sent twelve disciples, and they can share their worries for Pavilion Master Gu at any time." ”

Gu Zhongchi also said: "Anyway, being idle is idle, what is the need of the Gu Pavilion Master, Gu is the first to top!"

Gu Zuo hurriedly thanked him and raised his glass three times.

During the banquet, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Valley and the Lotus Leaf Sanren slowly put down their reserves, and talked with Gu Zuo about the future plans of their two sects, and there was a faint meaning of issuing stocks between the words.

Zhao Xianglu was still holding it during the banquet, not talking much, but suddenly improvised a dance in the music of several female disciples, the plump posture, graceful dance steps, and the flowing water displayed between gestures all showed the elegant and mature style of the middle-aged female monk, and everyone was surprised.

Lord Wangu praised: "When Zhao was young, he was a professor of music and dance in the Chang'an Workshop, and he danced for the Son of Heaven to see, and Wan Mou only saw it once eight years ago. ”

Gu Zuo could still sit down, hurriedly filled the wine glass, and personally raised it in front of Zhao Xianglu: "Gu Mou is fortunate to have the wonderful dance of Zhao Zhangmen, please drink this cup, I hope that Zhao's cultivation will be more advanced, and he will never be so beautiful today!"

Zhao Xianglu didn't take a cup of drinking, looked back and asked the disciple to pour a cup over, one foot on the ground, one long leg back, the delicate body leaned forward, almost crashed into Gu Zuo's arms, and actually put on a dance posture of a swallow into the nest, and sent the wine glass to Gu Zuo's mouth.

"This is the rule that we used to toast to the palace ministers in the Teaching Workshop Division, my sister is now older and her posture has declined, so I don't know if the Gu Pavilion Master is willing to hand over his arms, you and I will drink together?"

The audience immediately burst into laughter, and everyone high-fived and admired, laughed and encouraged.

Gu Zuo was urged by the sound of coaxing, smiled and wrapped the hand that raised the glass, and fed each other wine. Although Zhao Xianglu is nearly middle-aged, his appearance is not inferior to that of a girl, his posture is more graceful, and there is a three-point familiarity between his eyebrows.

Of course, Gu Zuo didn't make a move in the end, although Zhao Xianglu put on an intimate posture, but carefully pondering this posture, if you want to reach out and take advantage, you really can't take advantage of it!

But with such a time, Zhao Xianglu's previous coldness and rejection of Gu Zuo almost faded away, not only did it fade, but the relationship between the two seemed to be much closer. This is the advantage of mature female cultivators, which are comparable to non-male cultivators.

There are eight shops in Shuangfeng Town, and it is lively, but it is impossible to provide goods for more than 200 people in Nanwu Prefecture, otherwise they will all have to lose money, and it is not Gu Zuo's original intention to develop Nanwu Prefecture. Therefore, at the banquet, in front of everyone, Gu Zuo announced a policy:

Nanwu Prefecture encourages people from all walks of life to come to settle down, and those who are willing to settle in Nanwu Prefecture will donate houses and grant land, and for the sects that will introduce the people into Nanwu Prefecture to settle down, rewards will be issued according to the head, regardless of men, women and children, and one person will be rewarded consistently!

As soon as this policy was announced, it immediately caused a lot of discussion in the audience, and these leaders were all counting with their fingers to see how much they could profit.

Gu Zuo had been brewing for a long time in his heart, repeatedly calculating the needs, and after observing the efficiency of Gao Changjiang's master and apprentice in building houses, he finally made up his mind to recruit 3,000 households and 10,000 people within three years.

There is no doubt that the more land is granted, the more the harvest will be in the future. Nanwu Prefecture covers an area of more than 1 million mu, of which about 200,000 mu of arable flat land and more than 300,000 mu of hillside land can be developed, which is enough to accommodate 3,000 households.

The cost of donating a house is not as big as many people imagine, three rooms for a family, a circle of walls is enough, this kind of simple house is far from being compared with eight sets of Linxi shops, with the ability of Gao Changjiang master and apprentice, it is not a problem to build a hundred sets a month, and the cost of each set is not more than two. 3,000 houses are only 6,000.

As for the introduction fee for attracting people to naturalization, Gu Zuo prepared 10,000 yuan, this money gritted his teeth and spread out, recruiting people is better than anything else, as long as there are people, are you still afraid that Nanwu Prefecture will not be able to develop?

Moreover, this is a three-year plan, and it is spread out to 5,000 per year, which is not much!
