Chapter 42 Friends
After Yi Li left Luliu Village, Wang Dafu fell into busy territory construction again. This time it was a bit troublesome. He needed to build four buildings: inn, carpentry, wharf, and private kiln.
The inn is not a problem. Sister Gao is originally a chef and only needs to make special dishes. Wang Dafu has already thought about this. The white-scale hairtail fish in the Hesong River tastes delicious and has sufficient quantity. Just build a road from Luliu Village to the Hesong River. This white-scale hairtail fish can definitely become one of the best special dishes.
The carpenter needs a carpenter in the carpenter. Wang Dafu has sent someone to Bolan City to recruit a lot. I believe that with the superior conditions of Luliu Village (basic education, Tianxin), it is still very attractive to those facing breakthroughs or want to quickly improve their skills.
The situation of a private kiln is similar to a carpenter, and it also requires a potter. However, Wang Dafu thinks there must be something tricky about it, because if there is no clay ore, what should I use as raw materials? Of course, this is not a problem now. They found a very high-quality clay ore in the grassland.
Finally, there is the dock, which is very important to Wang Dafu. The famous saying "If you master the ocean, you will master the world" applies to everything. Of course, he is not as delusional as he plans to master the world now, but this does not affect his interest in the ocean.
"Designer..." Wang Dafu groaned with a headache. This kind of talent is now called his bottleneck. The most important thing at present is that both road construction and dock construction require the participation of designers, but this kind of talent is the most difficult to find. According to the beauty Zhen Da, there may not be one in the entire Bolan City...
At the same time, because the current situation is not obvious, he always has a bad premonition, so he began to seriously consider the issue of building fortifications.
The financial situation is not very tight. Wu Liang sponsored 100,000 gold coins. Although the expenses were very large during this period, there were still some leftovers. Wang Dafu now has a total of 25,000 gold coins on his book, and the estimated construction expenditure is 50,000 gold coins. Now the population of Luliu Village is close to 200 households. Even if the average income does not increase, the tax revenue can reach more than 25,000 gold coins. Moreover, according to Wang Dafu's estimate, the average income of Luliu Village today should be about doubled, so there is no need to worry about funds. The biggest problem is talent.
"Talent...Talent." Wang Dafu always talks about this sleep these days. He is really depressed and depressed...
After getting up in the morning, after washing up, Wang Dafu returned to the game again. He happened to see Xiao Xixi and a few miners going to mining while talking and laughing. Thinking of Elder Li asking him to have more contact with residents of the basic industry, he simply joined in. Their target today is the copper mine in Dangenshan. When they got there, Xiao Xixi and the others dug up, but Wang Dafu was dazed, recalling the last time that something happened here...
After a while, Xiao Xixi came over and asked about the last question: "I'll say to the village chief, why did you give the thousand-year-old copper mother so readily last time?"
Wang Dafu smiled slightly and said, "Where do you want?"
Xiao Xixi curled her lips and said, "Of course, we blacksmiths may not see a piece of mine mother in our lives. You are so big that you give it to someone without thinking. Of course, I'm not blaming you for giving it to Boy Yi, but others are pretty good."
Wang Dafu's voice fell: "Actually, I didn't want to give it to anyone at first, but every man is innocent and is guilty of being a silly person. Don't you understand this truth? We don't have the ability to protect the copper mother, so we have to use it as a favor."
Xixi didn't say anything, Wang Dafu continued: "You and the second brother Wang don't have the strength to build that piece of copper mother. The greatest use of it to us is to stay here to increase mineral resources. But Xixi, don't forget that although that thing is not precious, it is also a treasure after all, and people will inevitably be moved. And we cannot send a king-level master here all year round. Once someone comes to grab it, can we still keep it?" Xixi nodded to express his understanding of Wang Dafu's difficulties.
Wang Dafu touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "There is another thing. I always feel that the human demon we met here last time had some problems with cultivating the truth. He doesn't seem to be here to seize the treasure, at least he is not here to seize the bronze mother."
Xiao Xixi recalled and said, "Yes! He was asking us why we were trespassing in forbidden areas? If we were to pick up the copper mother, there was no need to do this. We would have taken away the things long ago when we talked to us."
Wang Dafu talked, "There is another question. Have you ever seen people running around with more than 20 storage rings on them?"
Little Xixi looked at Wang Dafu strangely: "What are you doubting?"
Wang Dafu thought for a while and said, "Xixi, you should have heard of Tianxing Sect and Daode Sect, right?"
Xiao Xixi nodded and said, "I guess everyone on earth knows that "Shenglong Road" has been popular for almost fifty years."
Wang Dafu smiled and said, "No matter what the reason is, we have offended the Moral Sect anyway, so we have to stand with Tianxing Sect. Let them solve their cultivators' affairs by themselves. We just need to develop Luliu Village well. If there is anything, we will ask Yi Li and the others for help. Don't forget that his senior brother is a very amazing person!"
Xiao Xixi looked him up and down for a while, shook her head and said, "I knew you wouldn't be so simple. It turns out that you want to use Yi boy. I remember that you seemed to have killed a person from the Moral Sect a long time ago, right?"
Wang Dafu looked at Xiao Xixi innocently and said, "How can you say that? I am really simple! At that time, it was mainly because I really couldn't handle that piece of copper mother. It was bigger than a house. I think it weighed at least dozens of tons!"
Xiao Xixi kicked him hard: "Die me, you have no complicated people in the world!"
The two of them were fighting together, and there were also a pair of brothers talking in the hall of the Tianxing Sect Mountain Gate.
A man who looked very ordinary, sat cross-legged on a cushion in the middle of the hall and asked Yi Li with a smile: "Junior brother, how did you get from going down the mountain this time?"
Yi Lexin nodded: "This time, I not only snatched dozens of storage rings from the newly acquired Yiren disciples of the Daode Sect, but also found several bottles of the best Monkey wine. The most important thing is that I also knew a Yiren Lord who was worthy of handing over. He accepted that he helped collect a thousand-year-old copper mother, and my Tianyan Glazed Lilac was found to start refining after finding 5 yuan of mine mother."
Yi Li's senior brother looked at him and asked: "Did you say a strange lord helped you? Tell me in detail"
Yi Li sat down on the cushion next to his senior brother and told him in detail about what he knew Wang Dafu. Because he had a good impression of Wang Dafu, Yi Li became more excited the more he spoke, but the more his senior brother heard him, his face became more strange.
After Yi Li finished speaking, he took out the hundred jars of Zuiyue wine that Wang Dafu gave him, his senior brother couldn't help laughing: "Haha, what a scheming guy, junior brother, you really know an amazing friend!"
Yi Li looked at his senior brother with some confusion and asked, "Senior Brother? Why do I think you are not praising me!"
The senior brother sat upright, looked at Yi Li and asked, "Tell me what is your main purpose for going down the mountain this time?"
Yi Li said in confusion: "Inquiry into the movements of the Moral Sect among ordinary people, test the strength of their alien disciples, and also find out if there are any materials you need!"
The senior brother smiled and asked, "Who found that piece of copper mother?"
Yi Li couldn't understand why the senior brother suddenly changed the topic, but he still answered: "It's me! But if it weren't for the help of the village chief, I might not have gone to get the bronze mother."
The senior brother continued to ask: "If you don't know that Feipei and Demon-Eyed Head Tuo also went there, would you go to get the bronze mother by yourself?"
Yi Li curled his lips: "If I hadn't heard that the two old monsters had also gone, would I need help? I don't take other waste materials from the Daode Sect seriously."
The senior brother blinked: "So who told you that the two old monsters have also gone?"
Yi Li opened his mouth wide: "It's the village chief...ah!" After pausing, Yi Li argued: "Senior brother, how can you think so? Our Tianxing Sect stipulates that if the local lord disagrees, we cannot take away the materials."
The senior brother raised a finger and shook it in front of Yi Li: "Please note, my dear junior brother, the full text of this regulation is. In the presence of the local lord, if the local lord does not agree, we cannot take away the materials. Then tell me who told the village chief where there is a thousand-year-old copper mother?"
Yi Li was already stunned: "It's me..."
"So who brought the village chief to the Tong Mother?"
“…it’s me…”
"Yes," the senior brother clapped his hands and looked at Yi Li's eyes seriously and asked the last question: "So if you don't tell him, will he know that there is a piece of copper mother there? Or if you don't take him, are you sure that you will take away the copper mother before he arrives?"
Yi Li could no longer speak and sat there dejectedly.
His senior brother stood up and patted his shoulder and said, "Junior brother, I find you are really tender! Your good friend exchanged a piece of Thousand-year-old copper mother that should belong to you and a hundred jars of ordinary wine. He replaced it with five immortal tools to arrange the Five Elements Thunder Tribulation Formation of the Heaven, two ancient Tianxin recipes, a bottle of top-quality Monkey Wine and more than twenty storage rings. Finally, he had a relationship with our Tianxing Sect. Under normal circumstances, just with his 100 jars of ordinary wine, I guess even our gate cannot be entered."
This made Yi Li feel mixed feelings. He sat there on the other side and his face was blue and white for a while. However, his senior brother ignored him and just picked up a jar of Zuiyue wine and looked inside with great interest. However, his face changed, and he put down the jar and said to Yi Li again: "Junior brother, you really know a great friend!"
Now Yi Li couldn't hold his face anymore, and he said with red eyes and hatred: "I didn't expect that I would treat him with sincerity, but he treated me like this, I..."
His senior brother waved his hand to interrupt him, shook his head and said to him, "When you first met, this person had tried a little bit of scheming to you, but his sincerity towards you was beyond doubt."
Yi Li was stunned when he heard this, looking at his senior brother with a questioning expression.
His senior brother said: "As an ordinary person, he can interact with a cultivator without being humble or arrogant. This kind of heroism is worthy of recognition; as a mere village chief, he can find a gift that is helpful to the cultivator by himself, and this ability is even more valuable; and as a friend, he can even try his best to think of future issues for you when preparing gifts for you, and this intention is absolutely not adulterated! Look at what this is?" He said that he handed over the jar of wine in his hand.
Yi Li took it and saw that there were two thin booklets in the wine jar. After taking it out, he found that these two books were - the technical book of wine-destroying techniques and the recipe of monkey wine.
The senior brother's voice came quietly: "With these two books, you want to empty the master and his friends, it's just a matter of time... Junior brother, you really know a great friend!"
Yi Li sat in the hall holding two thin booklets, feeling his eyes turned red again. His senior brother walked alone to a cliff, looked at the clouds in the sky in a daze, muttering to himself: "Is the Lord of the Yiren City? What an interesting person..."—
Finally, I finished writing this passage of cultivation. Readers probably didn’t expect that handsome Yi, who seems to have a lot of scenes, is actually just a supporting role? Haha, Benben writes an online game of management and construction. He won’t write half of it to write the protagonist cultivation. Please look forward to the next development of Green Liu Village. If you want to upgrade to a town, Wang Dafu still has a long way to go. Benben thanks all readers for their concern. Benben will continue to work hard and repay readers.
