Chapter 82: One Year
Translator: 549690339
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
During this month, the Chen family continued to develop in an orderly manner. After a new batch of grain was harvested, Yang Chen rented the fields in the surrounding cities according to the plan.
He also recruited a group of farmers to help the Chen family grow food.
With the surrounding aristocratic families watching over them, there was no need to worry that these people would leak the secret.
At the very least, it wouldn’t leak out for a year.
A year later, the Chen family would no longer need to hide. At that time, it would not matter if the news was leaked or not.
As for Chen City, there were many more disaster victims in this month. They were all refugees from the surrounding cities.
With regards to this, the other families could only wait for the Chen family’s food to save them.
However, these four cities had a total population of two million. It was not easy to replenish this population and provide food for a year.
Even with the help of fertilizer, the yield per mu of farmland had already reached 700 catties.
However, because Chen City was close to the Endless Mountain Range, the number of farmlands cultivated was far less than other cities, only about one million mu.
If they were given all at once, Chen Cheng would have no more food.
Yang Chen immediately made a decision to give half of the food. After the next batch of grain was planted, the remaining half of the grain would be replenished.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith five cities and nearly eight million mu of farmland, not only would they be able to replenish their rations, but they would also have a lot left over to carry out the Chen family’s plan.
The four great clans did not refuse. They knew that only by backing down now would they be able to obtain greater benefits in the future.
Moreover, even if he used half of the food sparingly, it would be enough for a year.
The plan outside was in full swing, and Yang Chen did not forget about the things at home.
According to Qing Zhaoling, a month was enough for him to brew the spirit wine.
Yang Chen was really curious about the effects of the spirit wine that he had spent 100 spirit stones to brew.
In the courtyard of Qing Zhaoling.
Looking at the jars of spirit wine in the courtyard, Qing Zhaoling could not hide the smile on his face.
After five years, he could finally brew spirit wine.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Qing Zhaoling knew that it was Chen Yang.
As expected, after opening the courtyard door, Chen Yang and Chen Xuan looked at Qingzhao Mausoleum with smiles.
“Chen Clan Leader. I didn’t know that the family head had come and couldn’t welcome you. I hope you can forgive me.”Qing Zhaoling hurriedly opened the door to the maximum and then welcomed Chen Yang and the other into the courtyard.
Looking at the jars of spirit wine in the courtyard, Yang Chen smiled and said,””Brother Qing, can you let us see the appearance of this spirit wine?”
“Of course.”
Qing Zhaoling let Qing Zhaomeng hold a jar of wine while he opened the lid of the jar.
Immediately, a rich wine fragrance gushed out from the wine jar and entered the noses of the four people.
After taking a deep breath of the wine, Yang Chen said,””The wine is mellow, charming but not intoxicating. Spirit wine was indeed spirit wine. Ordinary wine was far inferior to it.”
Hearing Chen Yang praise the spirit wine he brewed, Qing Zhaoling could not help but laugh out loud.” Chen Clan Head, let me introduce the effects of this spirit wine to you.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble Brother Qing.” Yang Chen nodded.
When Qing Zhaoling saw this, he quickly introduced,””This wine is called Essence Wine, and it belongs to the ninth grade spirit wine. Its effect is the same as Essence Powder, and it can increase the cultivation speed of Qi Cultivating Stage martial artists.”
“However, in terms of effect, it can’t compare to the Spirit Essence Powder. After all, compared to spirit essence powder, the cost of this spirit essence wine was still a little low.”
This spirit essence wine could actually increase the cultivation speed of Qi Refinement martial artists!
“Lord Chen, are you satisfied with this spirit wine?”Qing Zhaoling laughed.
“I’m satisfied.” Yang Chen nodded with a smile and asked,””How much spirit essence wine can you brew in a month?”
“Master Chen, if there are sufficient resources, I can brew 30 jars of spirit essence wine a month. Each jar of spirit wine is enough for a Qi refining martial artist to consume for a month.”Qing Zhaoling said.
“Alright, let me know if you need anything. Oh right, I bought you a mansion opposite my Chen family. You can stay there first.”
Since Qing Zhaoling had already brewed spirit wine, Chen Yang could not put him under house arrest in the Chen family.
After hearing Yang Chen’s words, Qing Zhaoling’s face lit up and he
said,””Thank you, Patriarch Chen. My Qing family will definitely follow the Chen family’s lead.”
After taking away the spirit essence wine in the courtyard, Chen Yang asked his family to wait for Qing Zhaoling to go to his mansion.
In the following period of time, nothing major happened in Chen City. Other than some demon beasts coming out from time to time to liven up the atmosphere, everything passed smoothly.
The Chen family’s development was also flourishing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith the spirit wine from the Zhaoling Mausoleum, the cultivation speed of the young members of the Chen family had increased significantly.
As for the income from the spirit stones, Chen Die could refine a lot of Qi Returning Pills and Qi Explosion Pills every month. Now, the pill business of the Chen family was gradually catching up with the demon beast raising business, becoming the third carriage of the Chen family to earn spirit stones.
In terms of weapon refinement, Chen Shou had a weapon refinement manual. His weapon refinement skills gradually improved, and he had already begun to attempt to refine Grade Nine spirit weapons.
Although it seemed that there was still a big gap, as long as he continued, it was only a matter of time before he broke through to become a Ninth Grade Weapons Craftsman.
Just like that, a year passed peacefully.
In this year, in addition to the above-mentioned internal development, the Chen family’s food plan was already in full swing.
The seven million mu of farmland provided the Chen family with a large amount of food. This food served as a solid capital for Yang Chen to carry out his next plan.
Yang Chen, who had been cultivating in seclusion at home, left Chen City for the first time and headed north.
This time, Chen Yang’s destination was Qi City.
Qi City was quite famous in Nanyang County. It was known as the granary of Nanyang.
There were five million mu of farmland in Qi City! The farmland in Nanyang was only 30 million mu.
It was because there were so many farmlands that Qi City still had a lot of grain reserves when the famine came. It was much more carefree than other cities.
However, no matter how carefree he was, there would be a time when he would reach the end.
The two years of famine had completely depleted Qi City’s food reserves. The only thing they could rely on now was the food that the royal family had given to the Qi family to last them for a year.
As for why Yang Chen had come to the Qi family, it was naturally because he wanted to rent the Qi family’s land to grow food.
In the Qi family, the head of the Qi family downed a cup of wine with some worry. Then, he sighed deeply.” Sigh, what should we do?””
At this moment, First Elder walked in.” Family Head, the matter has been investigated.”
“Oh? Tell me.” Qi Family Head raised his wine glass and said.
“According to our informant, the Chen family found brown soil. It was said that a hundred catties of brown soil could produce millions of catties of grain.” “Millions of kilograms of grain? You must be bragging.” Qi Clan Leader said disdainfully..
