"Brother came here in a hurry, do you have something to tell me?" Zhang Ying asked.
"Can't I give my junior a ride if I have nothing to do?" Qi Feihu smiled.
The two laughed. It seemed to go back to the time when Qi Feihu sent Zhang Ying to Dongling country. There are people on the road, and the journey does not seem boring.
"How long has Brother Ruiyang been in retreat?" Zhang Ying asked. He didn't ask Master this question, but Qi Feihu. Master did not take the initiative to mention this matter, and Zhang Ying was not easy to ask, while Mu Qingling was not familiar with Ruiyang.
"According to calculations, it has been about three years." Qi Feihu said.
"It's been three years, and I don't know what happened to my brother." Zhang Ying said with a little emotion.
"Don't worry, it's all right now. One of his soul lamps is on. I inquired a little bit, and in his situation, the chance of breakthrough is very high." Qi Feihu said with a smile.
"Really?!" Zhang Ying was a little surprised.
"Well. The tribulation will be crossed very quickly. After the thunder calamity, you will either die or live. I won't kill you slowly for a few years. Now the brother has retreated for three years, and the only possibility is that he is recovering from his injuries."
Zhang Ying nodded. In fact, there is another possibility, that is, Ruiyang has not aroused Lei Jie all this time, and has closed himself to death just like the temple master. But this is not in line with Ruiyang's character. And as a junior, you always have to think from the positive side.
"If Senior Brother Ruiyang succeeds, we will have one more Foundation Establishment Elder in Hujuguan, and our Black Tiger lineage will be even stronger!" Qi Feihu said.
Zhang Ying smiled dumbly, what is the charm of this black tiger lineage, he didn't feel any difference in this identity at all, it was just a small group in the sect.
The two chatted and came to a valley with trees growing on both sides of the valley. Those trees were red sandalwood. Now it is the time for flowers to bloom, and the light yellow flowers are dotted in the emerald green.
Down the valley is a flat land, and the Red Sandalwood Kingdom is on this flat land. Most of the Seventeen Songling Kingdoms are city-states, and the Red Sandalwood Kingdom is no exception. There is only one city called Red Sandalwood City.
Red Sandalwood City has a radius of ten miles and a population of hundreds of thousands. Most of the people make a living by planting and grazing, and they are inconspicuous in the Seventeen Kingdoms of Pine Ridge.
Zhang Ying and Qi Feihu landed in the Palace of the Lord. The palace erupted immediately. As a subsidiary country of Hujuguan, they naturally recognized the style of the Shangzong. A man in a tiger robe hurried out of the hall surrounded by a group of people.
The Songling Seventeen Kingdoms honor the tiger. The clothes of the king are all tiger robes with the image of a big tiger embroidered on them, and the clothes of the ministers are the images of cats such as leopards and bobcats. In order to cater to Shang Zong, they also worked hard.
In fact, Hujuguan never cared about what they wore, it was just that these people added their own drama, but they used this set of things to distinguish classes, which was still useful for ruling.
"Li Zheng, the lord of the Red Sandalwood Kingdom, has seen the envoy of the Emperor!" The tiger-robed man knelt on the ground and saluted the two of them. He is also depressed, the Red Sandalwood Country is just a little transparent in the Seventeen Kingdoms of Pine Ridge, why suddenly Shang Zong's father sent a disciple to guard it, why does he have to guard this poor place.
Zhang Ying helped the lord up and said: "My lord, you are polite. I am Zhang Ying, the guardian disciple, and I need to teach you a lot in the future."
Zhang Ying's tone was very gentle, and the lord quickly said: "Don't dare, if the envoy of the last emperor has any orders, just tell me." Facing Zhang Ying, he didn't even dare to say that he was lonely.
Immediately, Zhang Ying and Qi Feihu were sitting in the hall, accompanied by Lord Li Zheng carefully. The Red Sandalwood Country was small and sparsely populated, far inferior to the Dongling Country that Zhang Ying stayed in back then, but they still tried their best to arrange a reception banquet, and Zhang Ying also tried to pretend that the guests and the host had a good time.
After the banquet was over, Qi Feihu left. At his speed, it only takes a quarter of an hour to go back to the mountain gate.
After the dinner was over, Zhang Ying invited the king to speak, but the king dared not refuse. So the two sat down in the main hall and started their first formal meeting.
"I don't think the Red Sandalwood Country is rich. What do the people live on?" Zhang Ying asked.
"The people make a living by planting and grazing. Although the Red Sandalwood Kingdom is not big, the land is fertile. The production can not only supply the people, but also have a little surplus. There are grasslands further north, which are suitable for grazing." The king said honestly. He is still a dutiful king, at least he knows what his country relies on to survive.
"I plan to let the Red Sandalwood Kingdom divert to grow medicinal materials. I don't know what the Lord thinks." Zhang Ying said.
"Once the envoy of Shangzong ordered it." The king's heart was bleeding, but he still had to agree. No way, Hujuguan is the boss here.
Zhang Ying smiled and said: "Don't worry, the lord of the country, Hujuguan has the duty to protect one party, and I will not harm you. Planting medicinal materials, it is inevitablewill affect food production. I have been responsible for the food in recent years. "
"Huh?!" Li Zheng looked at Zhang Ying in surprise, is this disciple of the Shangzong so easy to talk to?
Zhang Ying ignored him, but continued: "The Red Sandalwood Country is located in a valley, but it is a rare sunny and gentle place. I plan to interplant ginseng in the red sandalwood forest, Ganoderma lucidum in the high places, and Polygonatum in the low places." The three medicinal materials are the main materials for refining Yuan Qi Dan, which are just suitable for planting in hillsides and valleys.
When the king heard this, he immediately thought about it and said: "In this case, the land of the people will not be occupied, and the people can continue to grow food. It seems that there is no need for money and food from the envoy of the emperor." I thought that the fertile land would be used to grow medicinal materials, and the fertile land would not be occupied. Letting this disciple of the Shangzong toss about it would not affect people's livelihood too much.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ying shook her head and said, "That won't work. The planting of medicinal materials is not just a matter of sowing a handful of seeds. It will definitely cost a lot of manpower, and they don't have time to take care of the crops."
The king lowered his head in disappointment.
Seeing him like this, Zhang Ying felt much more comfortable. After all, he is a ruler who thinks about the country and the people. Those who directly agree to the whole process will not care about the life and death of the people.
"I will use the ghosts of Hujuguan to dig a passage between the red sandalwood country and Songling Mountain, so that the roads of the red sandalwood country can connect all the countries. I will set up formations in the red sandalwood country to make the weather smooth here. I will set up a trade center here , turning the Red Sandalwood Country into a commercial center."
Although Zhang Ying was a laborer in his previous life, he also knew that 'to get rich, build roads'. If the roads are not open, everything is fake. As for the manpower for road construction, Zhang Ying naturally thought of the hundreds of thousands of ghosts in the temple, so it would not be difficult to borrow tens of thousands of ghosts to build roads.
After the road is repaired, you can buy food from outside and sell medicinal materials. This place is close to the north, and you can still do business with the nomads in the north.
As for laying out the formation, Zhang Ying will consider adapting measures to local conditions to arrange a large formation covering the Red Sandalwood Kingdom. This is similar to a Fengshui formation and does not consume any resources.
The last business center, relying on Master Zhang's ability to make alchemy and talismans, can't it support a market? Even if I am gone in the future, the road here is open, and there are resources, can't it support a mortal trade center? (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
