"Brother, I don't understand your intentions. ”

With a slightly drunken sense of alcohol, Chu Yiming simply asked straightforwardly, and even skipped the honorifics he used on weekdays, but he was not drunk, and there was still a little sense of proportion between his words, he thought that Jiang Feng was his friend, although he did not add the word "only", but it was also considered a good friend, Jiang Feng visited the Chu Mansion several times, and Chu Yilin, who was the head of the Chu family, should have known about the existence of the other party a long time ago, so he should not let Si Guanghao provoke Jiang Feng on tonight's occasion and slap his face naked. Fortunately, Jiang Feng's skills are superior and he has won the fighting method, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, and his wonderful performance is very beneficial for him to expand his contacts in Zhenwu City.

"Our Chu family is not the same as before. ”

Chu Yilin did not directly answer Chu Yiming's question, but said a digression, "When my father was alive, he was in charge of all the spiritual lands of the sect, trying to cling to the people he befriended, I don't know how many, no matter what his identity and status, my father did not refuse to come." However, after my father's death, most of these people have dispersed, leaving only the families of tonight. What do you think of them?"

"What do you think?"

Chu Yiming was stunned, he had never considered such a problem, he was not the head of the family, he had never coveted this position, he had two lives, he had status, he had obsession, he had confusion and greed, but he had never had ambition, so he had not thought of thinking about the future of the Chu family from a higher perspective.

"yes, tell me what you think. Or frankly speaking, do you think they will help our Chu family to re-emerge?"

"Most of them do. The corners of Chu Yiming's eyes twitched, dispelling the ubiquitous memories of the past and returning to the affairs in front of him. In my heart, I went through the various families who participated in the dinner tonight one by one, except for a few families that did not make a statement, most of the rest were still some forces, at least near Zhenwu City, and their presence should not be underestimated. It's just that after Chu Anlan's death, most of the affiliated families located in East Pole City have dispersed, and it is still difficult to regain them.

"That's why I found someone to challenge that Jiang Feng. In the eyes of the Li Sect, the Asa Mountain Sect is only a small sect, and it is not worth mentioning for most of the guests tonight, the reason why they can still maintain a respectful attitude is for the sake of me and the face of the Ding City Lord, but I can't let them feel that it is a shame to be with you, a friend. ”

"Although he is only at the Xuan level and is only a small leader, he still has the strength to fight?" Chu Yiming realized the truth in Chu Yilin's words.

"That's right, only when the strength is equal, can you really make friends. Si Guanghao still has a certain weight in the hearts of these people, and this competition is a good opportunity for this friend of yours to make a name for himself. If he wins tonight, someone will really pay attention to him and the Assayama Sect. If you want to help him introduce, you don't just need to help them hold hands, that will only be ridiculed and despised by others, what you have to do is to put him in front of the stage, so that everyone can discover his light and heat for themselves!"

"I see. Chu Yiming understood Chu Yilin's painstaking efforts, although he was silent, he was a little grateful, but he didn't know if Jiang Feng could realize this.

............

Jiang Feng said goodbye to Chu Yiming the next day, and Si Guanghao, who promised to assume the responsibility of the Mongolian religion, also went with him as promised, Chu Yiming originally wanted to take the opportunity to explain one or two, Jiang Feng waved his hand casually, he had already figured out the joints last night, and the result of the victory of the fighting method was self-evident.

In addition, he also introduced two friends by the way, the former is called Cheng Pingqian, the second shopkeeper of the Cheng family's firm, and the latter is called Cheng Kewu, who is a wealthy gentleman, rich but a layman, and the jade business is very big. The two of them, like Liu Xiqing, both intended to go to the Qianshan Sect to do business, and Jiang Feng naturally welcomed them, hoping that as soon as they arrived in the Qianshan, they would contact him in time.

Of course, the other party will not really contact Jiang Feng, this gesture of goodwill is to hope that when encountering problems and unfair treatment, Jiang Feng can take care of it, this unspoken rule, everyone understands.

Si Guanghao was also in a very good mood, sweeping away the haze of yesterday's defeat, the two had just left the Chu Mansion, but a white-clothed monk stopped the two, and when they looked again, it was Shangguan Boliang.

After the rectification, he disappeared from the sloppy appearance he saw yesterday, the appearance of a handsome son, both the vigor of a young man, and the calmness of a noble family, dressed in a splendid white robe, which looks even more valuable. Many ordinary women passing by cast fiery glances at it. In contrast, Jiang Feng, who has a mediocre appearance, and Si Guanghao, who has "outstanding" thick eyebrows, are more than dwarfed.

"Master Jiang, are you going back to the sect?" Shangguan Boliang knew that Jiang Feng was temporarily living in the Chu family, and he wanted to send a message of worship as usual, but he happened to meet him at the door.

"That's right, I was about to turn around, and Shangguan Daoyou was looking for me?"

"If you want to turn around, I will walk with you. Solve your problem as soon as possible, and you can help me get the information I want as soon as possible. Shangguan Boliang turned around and avoided the burning gaze of a passing woman, "What, Si Guanghao, you are also here?"

"I'm going to the Asayama Sect to help. Si Guanghao recognized him, the two seemed to be familiar with each other, but it was a little wrong, "You don't want to be beautiful in retreat at home, did you suddenly figure it out?"

"No, I'm a very single-minded person, and besides, it's not hard for others. Shangguan Boliang had something to say.

And you believe the rumors. Si Guanghao's face changed obviously, "Since you are with you, then you can do a favor and go to the City Lord's Mansion to find a way, and we can fly directly to the Shallow Mountain Sect, how about it?"

"Why didn't you go, and your relationship with Xiaolan, the daughter of the deputy city lord's family, still use me to help?" Shangguan Boliang couldn't help but tease.

"Naturally, I said to help Master Jiang get it, of course, if you can't get it, I can also help. The two turned on the bickering mode, ready to expose each other's shortcomings, and no one let anyone.

"Okay, why don't we take the carriage?" Jiang Feng was afraid that the two of them would fight with their mouths here, and the images of the two of them were so distinct and outstanding, like fireflies in the night, and people passing by had a faint tendency to watch.

"I'll go!"

Hearing that Jiang Feng was going to take the carriage, Shangguan Boliang was much happier this time, turned around and quickly disappeared into the crowd, Jiang Feng and Si Guanghao waited for a while, Shangguan Boliang had already turned around, and threw two wooden tablets over, the front was engraved with the word "Zhun Xing", and the back was engraved with a twisted snake-shaped symbol, which should be a token that allowed the city sword to fly near Zhenwu City.

With this kind of convenience, Jiang Feng and the two of them quickly walked out of Zhenwu City, and as soon as they got out of the city gate, three streamers suddenly appeared, rushing to the northeast, flying at full speed, and heading towards the Qianshan Sect.

When the sun set, the three of them arrived in Luochuan, Jiang Feng called Wang Yi, the deacon of the Rolling Shutter Division, and Wu Chunhua, the deacon of the Rites Division, and instructed them to settle the two distinguished guests, Shangguan Boliang and Si Guanghao, and wait until tomorrow, the appointment letter of Si Guanghao will be prepared. The cultivation of the Xuan-level quadruple is not low in the Qianshan Sect, according to his own introduction, in addition to the Mengjiao, he is familiar with the spirit plant, the formation, the Danshu, and the refining weapon, but for the "refining weapon", Shangguan Boliang did not lose time in showing a disdainful gaze.

Naturally, it is incomparable, no matter how much Jiang Feng trusts Si Guanghao, he will not think that he has the same ability as Shangguan Boliang. It's one thing to know, it's another thing to actually do it.

Zhang Pule, the secular deacon of the Mongolian Education Division, has been unable to work normally in the Mongolian Education Department recently because of his ill health, and there are only a few ordinary stewards to help maintain daily affairs, Jiang Feng drafted the document appointing Si Guanghao as the deacon of the Mongolian Education Department overnight, and at the same time dismissed Zhang Pule, but the special case is special, his salary can be distributed until next winter, and a one-time salary of twenty second-order spirit stones is added, which can be regarded as a reward for his hard work over the years.

This time he went to Lizong and turned around in a few days, the desk was rarely clean, there was no message, and there was no report from various counties, Jiang Feng felt a trace of leisure as the head of the house, closed his eyes for a moment, and thought about the arrangements for the near future.

Needless to say, the four medium-sized spiritual veins are located in Dayi, Warm Valley, Donghu, and Beimu counties, and the ten small spiritual veins need to be considered, and the natural conditions must be selected to be quite good, so as to use the power of the monks to solidify the mundane and avoid all the mundane from pouring into the four counties, creating a large number of urban poor people and causing chaos.

took out a detailed map of the distribution of the counties and towns of the Asama sect, pondered it again and again, and finally finalized the ten market towns:

First, the dragon bone town in the southeast of Dayi County, which specializes in animal bone fossils;

Second, Beichen Town, in the south of Dayi County and northwest of Luochuan, has green crystal veins;

Third, in the western part of Luochuan, Guanquan Town, near the border of Lizong, has a cold water spiritual spring, which can nourish the spiritual field, although it is rented out, but the people are still there, and the edge of the spiritual spring, planting the barren-tolerant species of Linggu is also a good livelihood;

Fourth, Guhan Town, which originally belonged to the Hanshan faction, specializes in water jade;

These four towns are all resource-based market towns, which already have the foundation of mundane livelihood, building small spiritual veins, and sending spiritual-level monks to garrison them, which will help the development and stability of the local area, because the three towns of Fuyuan involve the secrets of the true spirit sage, and there is no real mineral vein, Jiang Feng does not plan to include these three towns in the plan for the time being, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Fifth, adjacent to Beimu County, located in the south of Xinde Town, whether it is a county or a special area in the imagination, the resources of monks will be monopolized by other sects or spirit cage chambers of commerce, it is very important to take a step back and establish a stronghold where your own monks can live in peace;

Sixth, Tuqiao Town, in planning, is the only way for Jincheng Pailelin City to go west to the Qianshan Zong Shang Road;

Seventh, Yuanyi Town, in order to avoid being too influenced by the Jincheng faction, selected Donghu County as one of the first three counties, but in fact, the geographical location of this array is more advantageous, located on the existing trade route between the Qianshan Sect and the Jincheng faction, and adjacent to the border;

Eighth, Zhanchuan Town, adjacent to the original Heishui Gate, now the Heishui Gate has been destroyed, if the trade route to the south of the Wei State is opened, after the poisonous spring swamp is drained, it must be through the place;

These four market towns, all located on the trade routes, and on the border, have small spiritual veins, not only to protect the land and the people, but also to properly attract foreign mortals, which is still very necessary for the Qianshan sect, which has few people.

In addition, the other two market towns did not have so much consideration, Jiang Feng planned to have one south and one north, even if it was to defend Luochuan. In the north, Caomiao Town was selected, where Nie Xiaofan was born, and in the south, Chumen Town was selected, located between Luochuan and Nuangu County, where He Yu was born. Presumably, out of love for their hometown, the two often patronize and take care of one or two.

After demarcating ten market towns, Jiang Feng called Zheng Luda, the elder of the general affairs, and Wang Xiandao, the elder of law enforcement, overnight, to entrust the two of them with a "huge sum" of one hundred third-order spirit stones, and instructed them to settle with Shangguan Boliang tomorrow, and instructed them to purchase all the materials, if necessary and at a reasonable price, as much as possible in the territory of the Qianshan Sect. As for Shangguan Boliang's labor income, Jiang Feng will negotiate with him again and pay on time.

Zheng Luda and Wang Xiandao had never seen so many spirit stones, their faces changed several times, Jiang Feng originally raised the construction of the small spirit vein, and the two naturally agreed with both hands, but at the same time, they also knew that this construction cost a lot of money, they originally thought that Jiang Feng would need a lot of time to raise funds, but they didn't expect it to be so soon, even the monks who led the construction of the formation were ready. I couldn't help but admire the head Jiang Feng in my heart, and I had three more points.

"Master, you must rest assured that Ruda and I will definitely do this well. Wang Xiandao rarely showed his determination, a month ago, he still had the idea of equal strength with the head of the family, and his skills were comparable, but now he thinks about it, he was still too naïve at that time, this hand, I am afraid that I will take my own life, and I can't do it.

"We will make a detailed list of the items purchased, but ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that the big treasury of the sect owes you a huge amount of money again. Zheng Luda said with a smile, four medium-sized small spirit veins, ten small small spirit veins, enough to make the monks in the sect excited, the caves opened up in them can basically meet the needs of the monks in the sect to rotate and cultivate, and there is even a surplus, "Do these caves also need mengong?"

"Xuan-level monks don't need it, spirit-level monks use the cave mansion in the four counties, and the normal tribute is enough, and the cost of the remaining ten small spiritual veins is halved. In fact, I still hope that the monks in the door will go around the country to have a look, increase their knowledge, and enhance the popularity of the local area. ”

"Yes, then according to the master. ”

Wang Xiandao put away the map, and preemptively responded to a sentence, his thoughts had already flown to the small spirit veins that were about to start construction, a hundred third-order inputs, the deployment of manpower and materials, is not a small amount, a few days ago Shen Junmao also complained to himself that the homeless people in Dayi County have nowhere to place, with this investment, presumably any ordinary person who is willing to make money can find some livelihood.

Sending Wang Xiandao and Zheng Luda away, Jiang Feng calmed down again, practiced the giant wood barrier skill for a long time, and then slept peacefully, and waited until the morning sun rose, and after breakfast, he invited Shangguan Boliang over.

"Shangguan Daoyou, take a look at what you're looking for, is this the person?"

According to Jiang Feng's memory, he played two prop symbols, and displayed the image of Wanqing in his impression, respectively, the former was the first to use the lotus magic weapon for divination, and the latter was obtained by chance in Pujiang Town, Chixiamen, the two are similar in appearance, but because of the different environments, there are slight differences, today, Shangguan Boliang is going to start helping the Qianshan Sect to build a small spirit array, in order to make him feel at ease, Jiang Feng plans to put the work of finding Wanqing on the agenda as soon as possible.

"It's her!"

Shangguan Boliang recognized the person in the portrait at a glance, he immediately took out a picture scroll painted with evening sunshine, and took a deep breath, "She has lost a lot of weight, and I don't know if she is doing well or not." ”

It's a good life, she is a multi-faceted spy, she won't die so easily, Jiang Feng almost blurted out, but thinking about it, this may hit Shangguan Boliang's fighting spirit, without knowing whether he knows the truth, Jiang Feng doesn't plan to stimulate him.

"I'll start looking for you today, how long will it take to build all the little spirit veins?"

"Three months. Shangguan Boliang said bluntly, "In Lizong, it may not take so much time, but the Assanzong lacks some necessary materials, Zheng Luda came to me in the morning and said your request, if you try to purchase from the Assanzong, it will take more time, otherwise it can be completed in two months." ”

"Okay, it's okay for three months, the Asa Mountain Sect is poor and weak, but it's causing trouble for Daoists. The construction of the small spirit array starts from Dayi County. Regardless of the outcome, I want to pay you when it is completed, I wonder if it is possible?" Considering the actual appeal of Wei Chengyu, a newly promoted Xuan-level monk, Jiang Feng chose the first place to start construction in Dayi County.

"No problem, I'm not short of money, if there are any clues about Wanqing, you can tell me. If you find a real person, I can pay you spirit stones. ”

What an infatuated person, this is the same as that Ye Mo, this evening is really a good skill. Shangguan Boliang obviously hasn't come out of his emotional wounds yet, and he doesn't know if that young man, Ye Mo, can get better? It is not an exaggeration to say that the "Love Demon" is the first enemy of the monk, through the phasing technique, Jiang Feng can see that this Shangguan Boliang's law is also considered good, and it is really a pity that he was delayed by Wanqing like this.

There is a knot in the heart, and the natural road cannot be reached.

But I can't persuade this matter, I haven't been thinking about Zheng Keyi's situation differently in the past few days? Sending away the troubled Shangguan Boliang, Jiang Feng entrusted Wang Yi to issue a sect mission to find clues to Wanqing, rewarding 20,000 tributes, such a big reward, I believe that all the monks in the sect will deliberately pay attention to this matter when they are near the Qianshan Sect and when they pass through other surrounding sects.

20,000 tributes, this must be the most rewarding sect task this year, right?

As for whether he can find it, Jiang Feng doesn't think about it, maybe he can't save twenty-seven third-order pieces, but he doesn't know if there is anything in Ye Mo's hand, if there is something sunny, maybe he can divinate one or two.

Should I go to Chixia Gate to find that Ye Mo? If I find it, I may save a lot of spirit stones.

Jiang Feng was hesitating, and Zhang Yang, a slim-faced guy, came to report that a guest from the Changning Chamber of Commerce had come to visit. Changning Chamber of Commerce?Jiang Feng immediately thought of Dou Jinqiu.
