Chapter 151 – Concurrent Village
“Keeper Kong, Kong De Liang, so it’s him!”
At the beginning, besides Yang Junshan’s encouragement, Yang Tiangang also wanted to find other spirit grass seeds but it was not easy. On the other hand, it was easier to find the seeds.
What he did not expect was that after the second year of maturing, the county Great Cauldron Hall actually spread the news of them buying the strange fruit aigh price, following that, the Great Cauldron Hall released another batch of Fa Yun Pills with a medicinal efficacy that was only ninety percent of the previous batch. Although the medicinal strength of the pills had decreased a bit, the quantity had increased a lot, adding the fact that the price had also decreased, the Mengyu County bought a lot of them, and very quickly, all of the pills were sold out.
Very quickly, the news that the Great Cauldron Hall had improved the method of refining the cloud pill spread out. It was said that this method was at the cost of sacrificing ten percent of the cloud pill’s medicinal strength, so as to avoid the risk of repeatedly exploding the furnace when the pill was formed, greatly increasing the success rate, and the improved method was definitely related to the strange taste fruit.
Yang Tiangang, who was worrying that the strange fruit might be sold cheaply, immediately sent someone to deliver a batch of strange fruit to the Great Cauldron Hall when he heard the news. As for the three shopkeepers of the Great Cauldron Hall, at the same time that they were ecstatic, they also suddenly realized why Yang Junshan told them about the improved pill formula at that time.
The Great Cauldron Hall who had wanted to get to know Yang Tiangang, the new rising expert of the Mengyu County, immediately went to the Tuqiu Village to maketurn visit once it found out that Yang Tiangang had a middle ranked Ling Tian, and Yang Tiangang also promised the middle ranked Ling Tian in his hands to plant a strange fruit in two-thirds of the year. At the same time, the middle ranked Ling Tian of the Blacksmith Zhang and the Xu family also planted a strange fruit in their fields when Yang Tiangang had provided them with seeds.
Although the Great Cauldron Hall was quite famous in the Mengyu County, in truth, it had been two years since then. The three great clans of the Mengyu County were training their respective alchemists, and their actions were becoming more and more self-centered, trying to cultivate an independent system, and it just so happened that the majority of the middle tier Ling Tian in the Mengyu County were also in the hands of the three great clans. In the past, the Great Cauldron Hall was able to rely on its own fame and its ability to attract the three great clans to buy some urgently needed Spirit Grass from them.
This kind of spirit medicine was originally very rarely grown in the cultivation world. The three great families had even more strict control over it, and Great Cauldron Hall had no way of knowing where to start, so even at this time, Tuqiu Village’s seventy percent middle grade Ling Tian was becoming more and more precious in the eyes of the Great Cauldron Hall.
This year, the strange fruit had ripened once again, and the big shopkeeper of the Great Cauldron Hall, Kong De Liang, had even personally come to the Tuqiu Village to meet with Yang Tiangang, in order to discuss on the purchase of the spirit medicine.
“Yang Cunzheng, I heard that your esteemed village has had a good New Year, with great harvests, it is truly a joyous occasion!” From the sound of it, it was the head manager of the Great Cauldron Hall, Alchemist Kong De Liang.
Yang Tiangang’s voice also came from the hall, and said: “Haha, the year is not bad, not only is the spiritual valley’s harvest good, the growth of the spiritual herbs are also very good, and the strange fruit this year is ten percent more than last year’s. But the situation in the Mengyu County, right now, is afraid that the valley would harm the farmers!”
Kong De Liang laughed: “Yang Cunzheng is overthinking it, although Yuxian has already recovered from the two years of production, the vitality lost by the giant locust from last year’s battle will not be recovered that easily. The price of the spiritual valley will only rise a little, and as for the strange fruit, haha, I will take as many of them as I have available, so the price is definitely noroblem.”
“Manager Kong is generous!” Yang Tiangang praised, and said: “However, can we use pills to replace this year’s strange fruit?”
The conversation in the room became quiet, as though Kong De Liang was considering Yang Tiangang’s suggestion, or perhaps he was discussing it with someone else who came with the Great Cauldron Hall. After a while, Kong De Liang spoke in embarrassment: If we were to exchange the seven middle tier Ling Tian s in your village for spirit pills to settle the bill, then the quantity is a bit large. To hide it from Yang Cunzheng, seven out of ten of ten Great Cauldron Hall s this year will be pre-arranged for going out.
“However,” Kong Deliang’s voice continued: “From what I know, only two out of five middle tier Ling Tian s in your village that cultivate strange fruit are from the Yang Cunzheng family. I can use the medicinal pellets to settle the debt for the two halves of the Ling Tian s, the rest …”
Yang Tiangang laughed: “Haha, that’s great, we can settle the debt with the other thirty percent Ling Tian s, but I do not have only two points for the strange fruit, but three points for the Ling Tian s!”
“Oh?” Hearing that, Kong De Liang was overjoyed: “Could it be that Lord Village Head planted all of his Ling Tian s with strange fruits? I remember last year, I tried my best to persuade Village Head, but Village Head was only willing to plant two parts of the Ling Tian! ”
Yang Tiangang laughed: “Come, come, shopkeeper Kong, come with me to the backyard!”
One of them looked like a shop assistant, while the other one looked like an accountant. When the four walked out, they coincidentally met Yang Junshan who was returning home.
Although Yang Junshan’s aura had been suppressed, it could not be hidden from a third stage martial arts realm cultivator like Shopkeeper Kong. When he saw Yang Junshan appear in the courtyard, the Shopkeeper Kong’s face was still filled with smiles, but he immediately revealed a look of shock.
Yang Junshan took the lead and cupped his hands, “Senior Kong, long time no see!”
Kong De Liang turned to look at Yang Tiangang, and said: “Your son has an extraordinary spirit, truly is enviable!”
Yang Tiangang glanced at the muscular Wu Shuo behind Yang Junshan, laughed “haha”, and leaned to the side: “Please!”
Arriving at the Yang Mansion’s back, the group saw that a vegetable patch had been cut open beside the stone well. There were many strange fruits planted on it, and it was also about the size of a plot of land.
Kong DeLiang laughed, “This well must be Yang Cunzheng’s famous spiritual well, but I never expected that Yang Cunzheng would actually open a Ling Tian in the backyard of the house.”
Yang Tiangang laughed: “This middle tier Ling Tian was forcefully watered by the spirit well’s spirit water. If not for this spirit well, I am afraid that this Ling Tian no longer exists, Shopkeeper Kong, what do you think?”
Kong De Liang muttered to himself for a moment, then acted as though he had made up his mind, and said: “Fine, I will give you face no matter what, the Village Head’s three parts of the strange fruits are all settled with spirit pellets, and the remaining three parts with spirit pellets.”
Although Yang Tiangang knew that Kong De Liang’s actions were more of an act, but he still cupped his hands together and thanked: “Manager Kong is so righteous, I, Yang will remember it!”
The Yang family’s backyard was obviously nolace an ordinary person could enter. Yang Tiangang invited Kong De Liang to look at the strange fruit, and other than Yang Junshan, the only other person who came here was the assistant who worked with him previously.
Kong De Liang looked around, and pointed to the shop assistant: “I shall leave the matter of the strange fruit to him, he is my nephew, what pill does Yang Cunzheng wish to use to settle the debt, when the time comes you can discuss it with him.”
Seeing that Yang Tiangang had agreed, Kong Deliang walked two steps forward, and seemingly said in a low voice: “I wonder if there is an Earth Stone Village that is very close to your village?”
Yang Tiangang was startled when he heard it, and said: “There is indeed. The two villages are at the foot of the western mountains, with the Qinshui as their boundary.”
Kong Deliang nodded, “We are looking across the river. No wonder the county has news that they want you to merge two inches into one village.”
“Parallel Village?” Kong De Liang obviously had the intention of revealing this information to him, but shock still flashed across Yang Tiangang’s face as he said: “Brother Kong, where did you get this information from? Do you know who is the one claiming that these actions are not done in the village?”
Yang Junshan was equally shocked when he heard this. In his previous life, there had never been such a situation.
Kong De Liang replied: “Brother Yang, you still don’t know, right? Tuqiu Village is already famous in the Mengyu County, and in the past few years, your Tuqiu Village has been standing alone. There are plenty of people who are jealous!”
Yang Tiangang pondered for a moment, then said: “Brother Kong, please enlighten me.”
Kong De Liang waved his hand, and said: “I do not dare to accept your teachings, but I have heard that there are many families in Mengyu County that have returned the prefectural and garrison’s public lands, causing the families to lose their livelihood. The Wasteland Town’s deputy garrison has taken the initiative to request the county level to acceportion of the Spiritual Farmers … …”
“Deputy guardian?” Yang Tiangang laughed out angrily, and said: “Shi Jiutong has planned quite well, accepting these Spiritual Farmers probably took the opportunity to depend on a certain clan. Spiritual Farmers is a cultivator, and has also increased the power of the Earth Stone Village, and if I am not wrong, among these Spiritual Farmers, there might even be one or two Martial Realm Cultivator s. Hehe, in such a situation, to propose to merge the two villages with Earth Stone and Earth Hill, and with the support of a certain clan, and with the increase of his strength, I’m afraid that my Tuqiu Village has long drooled over his big fat body!”
Back then, when Yang Tiangang and Qian Chunlai were competing for the position of Guardian, unexpectedly, the position of Guardian fell upon the Meng Shan of Tu Meng Village. After that, when the situation of the Mengyu County was unstable, and the abilities of the Meng Shan was insufficient, he had once invited Yang Tiangang to be a Vice Guardian to lend him a hand. However, Yang Tiangang did not wish to get involved with the competition between the Heaven-Shaken Sect and the Mengyu County’s family, so he rejected it.
After sending Kong De Liang off, Yang Tiangang immediately informed the other two Martial Realm Cultivator s in the village about what happened with the strange fruit. After that, Yang Tiangang told the two what he had just heard from Kong De Liang.
“Parallel Village?”
The fiery temper of the Blacksmith Zhang was the first to explode, and he said: “How many Ling Tian in our Tuqiu Village, and how many spiritual valley do each have in our hands, can their Earth Village compare to them? And what if we split the Ling Tian again after the village? Seeing that the three mu of Ling Tian in the village is about to mature, wouldn’t that mean that their Earth Stone Village would take advantage of it? ”
Xu Sanniang muttered to herself: “According to Village Head, Shi Jiutong lured in an external force into the village, and they came prepared. I just wonder how the strength of the Earth Stone Village is now?”
These past few years, Tuqiu Village had been bustling, and many people’s cultivation had increased. This Xu Sanniang, after following Blacksmith Zhang, also broke through the first stage of the martial arts realm earlier this year.
Yang Tiangang said: “We have already sent people to scout, but Shi Jiutong will definitely try his best to hide the power of those people, and I suspect that the Martial Realm Cultivator will come to help us, we have to be on guard!”
