Protect Our Patriarch
Book 2: Chapter 48: Lady, do not plot to harm your own husband!Listening to Yunyang's grandiose words, Brother Mingda's face turned serious, with a hint of worry.
Master, don't be too rash when you say these words. Our little junior sister is not an ordinary eater.
"Mingda~" After Yunyang finished his grand speech, he glanced at his original beloved disciple, seemingly a bit disdainful, "Why are you still here? Shouldn't you be off doing tasks?"
Brother Mingda was somewhat surprised: "Master, I just came back from completing a task."
"Mingda, the situation is different now." Yunyang said solemnly, "We have an extra little junior sister to support. Go, do more academy tasks, try to pick the ones that make money."
"Yes, Master."
Brother Mingda's eyelids twitched slightly.
The situation seemed a bit bad~ But he couldn't disobey his master's orders, what else could he do but obediently comply?
After bidding farewell, Brother Mingda went straight down the mountain, embarking on his journey of grinding tasks to earn money.
After Yunyang's pressure subsided, Wang Lici's Dharma image also receded.
She looked somewhat uneasy, "Master, is there a problem with my bloodline?"
"No problem at all. You just need to eat and drink peacefully, no, practice peacefully. Leave the rest to your master and your senior brothers." Yunyang smiled at Wang Lici, his eyes filled with joy, as if he had found a treasure.
Our Yunyang lineage has gained such a good disciple, it's a cause for celebration~
Then, Yunyang sent messages to all his disciples, instructing them to pick money-making tasks in the academy, and to gather as much food as possible during the tasks.
With such care and consideration, Wang Lici's heart melted.
Master and senior brothers were so good to her. Fourth Uncle was right, the academy was indeed a good place, she made the right choice coming here.
......
Let's not talk about Wang Lici's carefree days in Yunyang's lineage, or how long her carefree days could last.
In the following days.
Wang Shouzhe spent his time in the academy's library with the disciple token given by Master Changchun, and with the help of Junior Sister Luwei, he consulted a large number of ancient maps of the Shenwu Dynasty.
Based on the structure of the large map and the changes in the sea and the mulberry fields, Wang Shouzhe finally determined the training location of the Shenwu Army of the Shenwu Dynasty.
However, this location...
Wang Shouzhe sighed incessantly, his mood becoming increasingly heavy.
It was deep in the foreign region, more than ten thousand miles away.
How dangerous was the foreign region? Not to mention ten thousand miles, even going in a thousand miles was extremely dangerous for a Xuanwu practitioner in the Lingtai realm.
The current autumn hunting team of the Wang's Clan could only go in five hundred miles at most.
Beyond this range, they would have to strengthen their configuration. More importantly, they would have to advance step by step, cautiously. Wang Shouzhe would not casually let his clan members take risks.
Moreover, going deep into the foreign region for tens of thousands of miles, they would inevitably encounter fifth or sixth rank beasts, and might even encounter seventh rank beasts.
Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now.
Wait until the clan's strength is stronger, then slowly advance in that direction.
After leaving the library, Wang Shouzhe returned to Changchun Valley.
However, as soon as he entered, he was stopped by a group of senior sisters.
"Junior Brother Shouzhe, do you still have those skincare and makeup products?"
"The samples you gave us last time were all used up, and our skin has indeed improved, becoming more hydrated."
"But it's a pity that there's too little."
A group of people surrounded him, chattering away.
"Ladies, please calm down." Wang Shouzhe took out a stack of booklets prepared in advance, "These booklets list the pictures and prices of those cosmetics, skincare products, shampoos, and conditioners. After I go back this time, I will try to purchase more precious raw materials and produce more. You can place orders through my nephew, Wang Zongsheng. Every half a year, I will entrust Qian's Merchant Group to deliver a batch."
Wang Shouzhe thought to himself: Nephew Zongsheng, this is all Fourth Uncle can do to help you, you must seize this opportunity~ freeweɓnovel.cѳm
"Half a year?"
The senior sisters were all disappointed.
"All of our senior sisters in Changchun Valley are naturally beautiful and have delicate skin. It won't matter if we use less for a while." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "Moreover, any senior sister from Changchun Valley who orders will get a 20% discount."
20% off!
The senior sisters' eyes lit up, and they all praised Wang Shouzhe.
After finally appeasing a group of senior sisters, Wang Shouzhe hadn't walked a few steps before he was surrounded by a group of male disciples from Changchun Valley.
"Senior Brother Shouzhe, the 'Witch No.3' vine seeds you gave us are really useful." One of the male disciples said excitedly, "Yesterday, after I sparred with a senior brother from Xiaoyao Peak, I beat him so badly. The junior sisters in our Changchun Valley also look at me differently now."
The other male disciples also expressed their excitement.
Men, who doesn't want to become stronger? Who doesn't want to show off their prowess in front of junior and senior sisters?
Just thinking about the girls cheering "Go, senior brother!" and "Senior brother, you're amazing!" made their blood boil.
They had never experienced such a soaring feeling before.
Not only was it thrilling, it was addictive!
"Witch No.3" was the seed of the vine array that Wang Shouzhe was currently using. As of now, only he could cultivate this seed, it was impossible for others to replicate.
A few days ago, at the strong request and anticipation of the disciples of Changchun Valley, Wang Shouzhe gave them some, allowing them to experience the power of a weakened version of the vine array.
Of course, due to the limitations of their bloodline, they could only activate it with the "Changchun True Scripture", which was much slower than Wang Shouzhe.
But these vine seeds were the result of more than eight years of slow improvement by Wang Shouzhe, and he had put a lot of effort into their rapid growth.
After his catalysis, when the vines finally condensed into seeds, they stored a large amount of energy. This allowed them to be activated with only a small amount of Changchun Xuanqi.
Therefore, these Changchun disciples were barely able to use "Witch No.3" in battle.
Seeing the male disciples of Changchun Valley staring at him with "thirsty" eyes, Wang Shouzhe gently reassured them, "Brothers, I didn't bring many seeds this time. Besides, these vine seeds are not easy to cultivate, so you have to give me some time."
"Here's what we'll do, everyone take a booklet first." Wang Shouzhe took out a stack of booklets and distributed them to everyone, "Every half a year, I will entrust Qian's Merchant House to bring a batch. If you have any needs, you can pre-order from my nephew, Wang Zongsheng."
In this way, Wang Shouzhe finally appeased these male disciples.
This was a strategy Wang Shouzhe came up with. Back on Earth before online shopping, people relied on these booklets for mail order.
And whether it's mail order or online shopping, it all depends on logistics.
Nowadays, Qian's Merchant House has branches all over Longzuo Commandery, and its scale is quite large, which has some rudiments of logistics and can barely meet the needs of mail order business.
Wang Shouzhe did have the intention to develop express delivery and logistics, but with the current strength and scale of Wang's Clan in Ping'an, they simply couldn't handle it. Even if they wanted to cooperate with Qian's Merchant House, they wouldn't even bother with you, even if you presented a business plan, it would just be making a wedding dress for others.
In the final analysis, the overall strength of Wang's Clan in Ping'an was too weak.
If one day, his younger sisters Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luoqing reached the level of a Purple Mansion expert, then Wang's Clan would have the qualifications to truly cooperate with Qian's Merchant House.
However, that would be at least two to three hundred years from now.
Suddenly, Wang Shouzhe had an idea.
However, this idea needed to be carefully considered.
There was no need to rush.
...
Afterwards, Wang Shouzhe stayed in the academy for another seven or eight days, expanding his network, before bidding farewell to his nephews, nieces, and two younger sisters.
During this time, he naturally learned that his grandniece, Wang Lici, had joined the faction of Vice Principal Yunyang.
For this, Wang Shouzhe secretly sympathized with the Vice Principal.
Fortunately, every member of the Wang's Clan had found their own path, and the future looked promising.
After saying goodbye, Wang Shouzhe's caravan slowly set off, heading back to Changning.
When they set off, it was early spring in February, but by the time they returned to Changning, it was already May. The weather was somewhat muggy and it was a rainy season.
Continuous heavy rain could potentially cause the An River to overflow, causing floods in the entire Ping'an area.
In the history of Ping'an Town, which has been around for over a hundred years, there have been two major flood disasters, and minor water disasters occur every few years.
Humans like to live near water, as both life and farming are inseparable from water. But when a flood strikes, it can cause great harm to humans.
Crop failure and house collapse are minor issues, but if too many people and livestock die after a flood, causing a plague, that would be truly terrifying.
Therefore, when Wang Shouzhe first arrived, he paid great attention to the water conservancy project of Ping'an Town.
Over the past eight years, he had ordered people to gradually understand the geographical situation of the entire Ping'an Town, not only making detailed topographic maps, but also painstakingly creating a huge topographic sand table.
Whether it was the pioneering work of the ancestors or the protection of the generations of ancestors, the family had deep feelings for this land. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Although Ping'an Town was nominally part of Daqian, Wang Shouzhe had long regarded it as his own territory, managing and building it from beginning to end as if it were his own land.
As soon as he returned, he heard reports that this year's rainy season was continuous, as if there were signs of a flood, and he immediately threw himself into intense work.
The huge sand table displayed the topography and landforms of Ping'an Town in front of him in great detail.
Over the past eight years, he had invested countless manpower and resources in water conservancy projects.
Fortunately, Ping'an Town was a small place, with the An River to the north, forming an arc to guard Ping'an Town, from the Broken Dragon Gorge in the west to the Falling Eagle Gorge in the east, Ping'an Town was about 140 to 150 miles along the river bank.Once the water level of An River rises, if there is any breach in the riverbank within a hundred and forty or fifty miles, the flood will pour into Ping'an Town.
Among them, the Broken Dragon Gorge to the west was the most annoying to Wang Shouzhe.
Because the terrain here is narrow, the gorge's mouth chokes the upper reaches of An River like a throat. This also makes the water flow in a section of Ping'an Town swift and fierce.
This wouldn't be a problem in normal times, but once the flood season arrives, it becomes a major hidden danger.
Behind Ping'an Town, there are the intertwined branches of Liuping Mountain, which isolate Ping'an Town from the outside world.
As a result, once the flood enters Ping'an Town, there is no flood discharge channel, and the water level continues to rise, which could potentially turn the entire Ping'an Town into a marsh.
Wang Shouzhe scrutinized all the terrains on the sand table, constantly deducing their weaknesses.
After a long time, Liu Ruolan brought some snacks and gently said, "Husband, eat something first, take a break."
"This Broken Dragon Gorge..." Wang Shouzhe grumbled, "I will flatten it one day."
"Pfft~"
Liu Ruolan covered her mouth and laughed, "My husband is really ambitious. When that day comes, I will work with you."
In fact, places like Broken Dragon Gorge are excellent for hydropower generation. Before he crossed over, the Three Gorges on Earth was such a project.
Of course, such a large water conservancy facility has its advantages and disadvantages, and its destruction of the ecological environment is quite fatal.
Wang Shouzhe temporarily put aside all distractions and tasted the "love snacks" made by Liu Ruolan herself.
Hmm.
It's still as unpalatable as ever.
But he still pretended to enjoy it as always: "My wife's cooking is really good."
"If my husband likes it, I'll take care of all your meals in the future." A happy blush appeared on Liu Ruolan's pretty face.
Wang Shouzhe's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Wife, don't plot against your husband."
Don't plot against your husband?!
Liu Ruolan's face gradually changed.
Oh no!
Wang Shouzhe's heart thumped, it seemed he had spoken without thinking.
