Now this valley has changed greatly after months of reclamation, dozens of acres of fields have been planted with grain, and the seedlings have grown very well, and in the autumn there will be a good harvest.

Everyone welcomed Chu Chen into a built house, and the people in the village knew that Chu Chen was coming, so they came out of each house and gathered in the house, and everyone who saw Chu Chen was extremely respectful to him and thanked him very much.

"I came this time to tell you that the new emperor of the Qin State ascended the throne and set up a name to collect all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes from the people, so that many people are now unhappy, and you are lucky to come to this valley. After sitting down, Chu Chen talked to everyone about the things up and down.

"Really, has the Qin Kingdom become like this now?" someone said in disbelief.

"Thirteen, tomorrow you go down the mountain with me, if you see that there are people who really can't survive, you will bring them to the valley, select some young people to pass on their martial arts, I think, the Qin Emperor is so uncaring for the people, forcibly expropriating and expropriating, only caring for his own pleasure, if this continues, sooner or later the world will be in chaos, and then there will be smoke, so it is good to let everyone have some martial arts to defend themselves, maybe one day you can also go to join the army, overthrow the rule of Qin, and re-establish a new country without oppression." Chu Chen smiled, ignoring the man's disbelief, his gaze fell on Yang Shisan's face and said.

"Yes, Childe. Yang 13 replied respectfully.

In the early morning of the next day, Chu Chen took Yang Shisan out of the valley, but after leaving the cave, Chu Chen did not take Yang Shisan down the mountain directly, but changed his direction and walked to the east, which was the direction of the Tianshan Mountain.

"Thirteen, walk all the way from here, you can lead to the Tianshan Mountain, where my son built a Taoist palace, and the people you bring up will only increase in the future, and when the time comes, the valley may not be able to live, so you will take them to live in the Tianshan Mountain. Chu Chen said as he walked with Yang Shisan.

Along the way, Chu Chen explained many things to Yang Shisan, including asking Yang Shisan to slowly form an army, pass on their martial arts, and place them in Chixia Mountain and Dongtian Mountain.

"Childe, will they just be obedient?" Yang Shisan said worriedly.

"Before you take them into the mountain, you have to make it clear to them, anyway, they can't live anymore, now there is only this way to go, if they don't agree, you can not take them up the mountain, they themselves will be forced to death by the king of Qin, no one can save them." Chu Chen smiled slightly.

The two of them walked and chatted in the mountains, and after about two hours, they stopped, and in front of them was a cliff, and on the opposite side of the cliff was a mountain range of mountains and peaks.

"Thirteen, on the opposite side is the Dao Tian Mountain, from this side there is a path down, along that side you can enter the Dao Tian Mountain, and my Dao Palace, under the third peak over there. Chu Chen pointed ahead and gave Thirteen a detailed introduction.

After the two rested for a while, Chu Chen took Yang Shisan to continue on his way, and almost an hour later, the two finally came to the peak where the Dao Palace was located, and looked down, only to see that the framework of the Dao Palace had been basically completed and had already shown momentum.

"What a big and bold Dao Palace!" As soon as the Dao Palace came into view, Yang Shisan couldn't help but marvel.

"When the Dao Palace is completed, I will put the grain in that house, and you can bring people to move it there directly in the future. Chu Chen pointed to a house below and said.

"Yes, Childe, Thirteen remembered. Yang Thirteen replied.

After that, Chu Chen took Yang Shisan to begin to familiarize himself with the terrain of the Tianshan Mountain, and by the way, took him to see a lot of karst caves, so that he could arrange for some people to live in these karst caves in the future, so as to facilitate the contact between the two sides.

After some familiarization, Chu Chen took Yang Shisan back the same way, but the two no longer chatted while walking as they came, but galloped all the way, and finally, when it was dark, they returned to Chixia Mountain and came to the outside of Chixia Mountain.

"Today we will stay in Chixia County for one night, and tomorrow you will start to walk around, and if anyone will go up the mountain with you, you will take it, but you must be a reliable person, lest your dwelling be leaked out and cause unnecessary trouble. After entering the Chixia County City and finding an inn to live in, Chu Chen told Yang Shisandao.

"Childe, rest assured, Thirteen will never lead bad people into the valley. Yang Shisan nodded solemnly.

"I'll leave tomorrow morning, go around by yourself, it's a thousand taels of silver tickets, you can buy whatever you want. As Chu Chen spoke, he took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels from his body, which was the silver ticket he exchanged in the Qin Kingdom, not the silver ticket of the Heavenly Kingdom.

"No, sir, Thirteen can't be accepted!" Yang Shisan didn't dare to take it, because Chu Chen had already given them too much, although he grew up in the countryside and had never read a book, but he didn't dare to forget his mother's teachings for a moment.

"In the future, there will be more people in the valley, and there will definitely not be enough food to eat, so you will recruit troops and horses for me and collect this silver. Chu Chen smiled and said, this thirteen is really simple and honest, he didn't see the wrong person.

"Okay, please rest assured, these silver thirteen will never be spent indiscriminately!" Yang Shisan took the silver ticket and assured Chu Chen.

Late at night, after everyone in the inn had fallen asleep, Chu Chen quietly left the inn and returned to the post house in Huzhou.

In the following days, he stayed in Huzhou County, and after the Dao Palace was built, he began to frantically buy grain in the surrounding counties and hoard the house in the Dao Palace.

Qin has always been very wealthy, so Chu Chen can still collect as much grain as he wants for the time being; Qin Xing has added several kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which are like beasts in the eyes of those tenants, and in the eyes of other people who have their own fields and lands, it is nothing, so there should not be a huge turmoil in Qin in the next year or years, so Chu Chen has no other plans for the time being, just sit back and watch the clouds roll up.

Yang Shisan visited Chixia County, and there were really many people who were willing to go up the mountain with him, most of these people were people from the same town as him, and their annual income was barely enough to maintain food and clothing. Staying where you are is only a dead end, and there may be a chance of survival when you enter the mountains.

In the past two hundred years, the Qin State has been bent on resisting the Great Zhou in the south, and has not launched attacks on other countries, so the domestic population has increased sharply in the past two hundred years, reaching an unprecedented three billion, and therefore there is a situation where there are more people and less land, so many people choose to be tenants for the rich to make a living, therefore, the number of tenants in the Qin State accounts for almost one-third of the country's population, however, Qin Xing doesn't care about these, he thinks that the Qin State is very strong, if it were not for the Great Zhou in the south, the Qin State would have already unified the entire Xingyun Continent.
