Phoenix Descends – Queen with a Thousand Pets

Chapter 77



A lot of goods were brought into Mapo, and the Aeolus set sail for Mindanao.

It was a pleasant journey. In a few days, Fengshen docked in the open sea of the coastal plain.

Ling Qingyu took Zhu Weili and others ashore, and saw that the plain, which was still a wasteland when he left, had been reclaimed out of a paddy field. At this time, his eyes were golden and beautiful.

Ling Qingyu slowed down and walked slowly along the ridge to the village in the distance. He nodded unconsciously. It seemed that Argonne took good care of this place. The climate here was hot, and rice could be three crops a year. Although this plain was a narrow area along the coast, it also had tens of thousands of square kilometers, and typhoons from the northwest of the Pacific usually blew towards Luzon and Visayan islands, rarely landing on Mindanao. Therefore, compared with other regions, this place is more suitable for agricultural production, not to mention the abundant resources on the island. As long as we make good use of it, it is a very good base.

When some aborigines working in the field saw them coming, one shouted and ran to the village, while the other knelt directly in the field and saluted Ling Qingyu and his party.

There was still some distance from the village, and Agung brought people to meet him in a hurry. Seeing Ling Qingyu, the group also knelt down and saluted directly.

"What is this?" Ling Qingyu smiled and picked up Gong and motioned for others to get up.

"You are our great benefactor and our most noble master. Argonne is very happy to see you back." Argonne\'s eyes were full of tears and said. When the first season of rice matured, they realized what kind of life they got. They had enough to eat and wear warm clothes, and there was no threat to their lives. Such a day was beyond their dreams before. The whole village spontaneously carved Ling Qingyu\'s appearance into a statue of God for their desk.

Ling Qingyu, who had been offered up, did not feel at all conscious. He affectionately took Argonne\'s hand and walked to the village. As he walked, he asked, "how is your recent harvest? I think the field is only partially open."

"The harvest is very good. According to the measuring tools given by Mr. Huang, there are two buckets of rice with one stone per mu. It seems that we can harvest three times a year. Not only do we have enough rations, but there are many more, so we have not cultivated more fields. There is extra time. Everyone goes up the mountain to dig for gold and collect the spices you said." Argonne said with a shy smile.

One stone, two buckets, that is, the yield per mu is less than 200 Jin, which is still a little low. Ling Qingyu looked in the distance and saw that there were still large tracts of wasteland that had not been reclaimed. If all the coastal plains were reclaimed, wouldn\'t there be millions of mu? According to onemillion mu, one stone per mu is one million stones, and three million stones in three seasons a year. I\'m dizzy!

Yan San held Ling Qingyu from behind. Looking at her eyes turning white, she didn\'t feel funny. She probably went to settle accounts again!

Ling Qingyu calmed down, thinking that no matter how much grain is produced here, he will not be lucky to go to Dazhou, so he calmed down a little. Fengshen is a huge ship, and the dark cabin is only 30000 stone.

"Here we are, master." Argonne pointed to the largest room in the middle of the village and said respectfully.

In front of the house, the people in the village have gathered, kneeling on the ground and saluting Ling Qingyu.

Seeing that the number of people was more than when she left, Ling Qingyu couldn\'t help asking, "it seems that there are more people?"

"Yes, some people went back to the clan and told them, so two more tribes moved here. But don\'t worry, the master. I have made them swear to the gods that they are willing to give priority to the master before letting them in. Now there is a village not only here, but also there." Argonne said uneasily. After all, these people didn\'t get lingqingyu\'s consent. She was good at making suggestions and didn\'t know whether she would annoy the master.

"How many have come?" Ling Qingyu walked into the room and asked.

"Not much, just a hundred people." Argonne was unconscious of fear and replied more respectfully.

"Have the Ulans been here?" Entering the room, Ling Qingyu naturally sat in the first place and asked.

"No, some clansmen have seen their tracks on the mountain, but it\'s far away from us." Argonne stood at the bottom and bowed his head.

After looking at the aborigines who are still kneeling outside, Ling Qingyu said, "Argonne, let them get up, and then call together the chiefs of all ethnic groups. I have something to say, including those new comers."

"Yes!" Argonne bowed his head and retreated, let the people get up, then called several clan chiefs in, and asked the people to call other clan chiefs, and then ordered people to prepare food and drinks.

The chiefs of more than a dozen tribes gathered in the big room, excited, nervous and worried. Especially the two new tribes gave Ling Qingyu a big gift as soon as they came in.

"Everyone, please sit down. Sit down, please." Lingqingyu\'s gentle way.

The patriarchs looked at each other, and then at Argonne. Seeing that Argonne was sitting on the lower head, they also sat half of their hips on the lower position.

"This Mr. Zhu, as everyone knows, these two haven\'t met?" Ling Qingyu smiled at the new patriarch. Seeing that the two were going to get up and salute again, he pressed his hands and said, "it\'s the same now."

Glancing around the patriarch below, Ling Qingyu smiled: "I won\'t be wordy anymore. This land is rich. As long as it is cultivated, it is good land. I\'m going to establish a stronghold here, which is in the charge of Mr. Zhu. I\'ll divide your tribes into their own ranges according to your population. For the harvest of the fields in your own range, I only want 10% of the income as a tax, but each family should do some voluntary work for me according to their own labor force, such as collection, harvesting, and construction. Of course, Accordingly, we will provide you with better technical support. In this case, do you understand? "

Argonne was stunned for a moment, then translated the words and made some explanations at the same time. Each clan leader was stunned for a moment, and knelt down on the ground together.

Argonne also knelt in front of Ling Qingyu and said, "everything here is originally given by the master. We obey the master\'s orders."

"Ha ha, Argonne, you may still not understand," Ling Qingyu waved them up, and then said, "to divide your respective territories to avoid future disputes, I will establish our own city here. After you pay the tax, I will naturally ensure your safety, or do you think you can resist the URAs?"

auzw. Hula, kneel down again. Www. 68mn.

"Get up, get up." Ling Qingyu helplessly continued to shout them up, and then said, "this land is very large, and there are large river valleys across the mountains. If you like, I won\'t force you to stay. You can find a place by yourself. We also provide technical support, but we have to pay more." Even in later generations, Mindanao is a very sparsely populated area. Now, it is estimated that all tribes together will not exceed thousands of people. As long as there are enough armed forces, they are not afraid of turning against the water.

Hula, knelt down again, and all the clan chiefs shouted excitedly.

"Master, when we receive the favor of our master, we naturally want to give priority to our master. Master, please don\'t doubt us. We have sworn by God." Argonne kowtowed heavily. The tribes here are actually small tribes. If they are allowed to live and die by themselves, it will not be long before they are swallowed up by large tribes or by the jungle. Rather than being completely destroyed, it is better to obey Ling Qingyu and continue. Moreover, sincerely speaking, Ling Qingyu\'s conditions are very favorable.

"So," Ling Qingyu helped Argonne up and said with a smile, "I need Argonne\'s help to assist Mr. Zhu."

In three days, Ling Qingyu and Zhu Weili, together with Argonne and the clan chiefs, demarcated their respective territories. Basically, a tribe has 100 to 200 hectares of land, and they have also demarcated hundreds of acres of land for living. If they are willing to go to the edge of the land, they can get more than twice the land. Finally, a total of 2000 hectares have been divided out, and most of the fields between the tribes are connected, Two tribes who are willing to go to the edge promised to help them build houses in the local area, so that a large area of fertile land will be empty in the middle.

Ling Qingyu and Zhu Weili basically walked through the plain again, and then delineated some distance from the native population concentration, relying on the mountains behind, and the natural harbor in front of the dangerous terrain for the construction of strongholds.

When Ling Qingyu and Zhu Weili were trampling everywhere, Yang Zhao and Lam took people into the mountain, with local people as guides, tracked down the remains of urah, destroyed them all, and then went to the nearby tribes to have a look. Some of the very fierce and unfriendly tribes were also killed by them. So many times, some of the aborigines surrendered to them, were willing to be servants, and some moved into the denser jungle, To avoid these evil spirits.

"All cleaned up?" Yang Zhao shook the blood on the knife and asked.

"Yes, it\'s all cleaned up and won\'t be known to the head of the household." He Lidao. The head of the family is soft hearted and can\'t see this kind of killing, but if the head of the family wants to establish a stronghold here, they can\'t let any threat exist.

"Get ready to go back." Yang Zhao looked at the sky and said faintly. Along the way, he and Ling Qingyu became closer, but he knew that Ling Qingyu kept a distance from him, because he would go back sooner or later. She did not seek his commitment or give him a commitment. At the thought of this, Yang Zhao felt heartache.

What I can do for you is all there is now.

There are many people and great strength. There were about a hundred strong workers on the Aeolus. Oh, most of them were taken away by Yang Zhao, but there are hundreds of Aboriginal workers! But in a few days, the small village had some shape.

The village is built against the mountain, with a brick and wood mixed structure, and stones and wood overhead to prevent moisture. The house is spacious, unobstructed and very comfortable.

Zhou Tan took a fancy to a rock field on the hillside. There was an iron ore, copper ore and tin mine not far from here, which was just used as a foundry, so he asked people to cut down the surrounding trees to make building materials, which was just dual-use.

In the first half of the month, Yang Zhao brought people back, and the defensive fence around the village had begun to be built. With Yang Zhao and others, the progress was faster.

"Song Yu, you and Chu Cheng take people here, follow Mr. Zhu\'s orders and continue to build our village. When you are free, you can reclaim those fertile fields, and then pick you up when the Fengshen returns from Dazhou, OK?" Ling Qingyu faces the front two people.

"Yes!" Two people should be good together.

Fengshen made several trips to Fengshen Island, brought out the boat originally made by Huangjing on the island, brought Zhou Tan\'s smelting appliances and products on Fengshen Island, and then unloaded the giant crossbow as one of the village\'s fortifications. This thing can\'t be brought back to Dazhou.

Ling Qingyu went to his dark hole and took out the two jade pieces and gave them to Zhou tan. He was so surprised that Zhou Tan\'s eyes were almost falling off, even calling for peerless treasures!

Zhou Tan cut the ice jade into dozens of small beads in front of Ling Qingyu\'s face, and the warm jade was also cut into twelve jade pendants in front of Ling Qingyu\'s face, and some broken jade was made into channeling bracelets and bracelets.

"The head of the family, only one ice jade can protect the body from damage. This warm jade, which you take with you, is very good for your health. I really want to thank the head of the family. I can see such a treasure in this life." Zhou Tan sighed.

Ling Qingyu got the baby, and called Yan San and Yang Zhao into the room. Then he hung a piece of warm jade and said, "Zhou Tan said that this warm jade is good for your body. You two have a lot of old injuries. Take it close to your body and don\'t take it off." Remembering that there was another Yan Qi, he called Yan Qi in after pinching for a long time and brought him a piece of warm jade.

"Master, do you know how much this is worth?" Yan Qi looked at the jade pendant on his chest, and there was a gentle air on his chest.

"How much?" Ling Qingyu picked a smaller one and took it with her.

"The owner of luanjian mountain villa once offered a reward of 100000 liang of gold for such a piece." Yan Qi touched his neck and said.

"Wow! He\'s so rich," Ling Qingyu smiled at Yan Qi\'s eyes. "No amount of money is more important than your life!"

"In fact, if you don\'t do this, I\'m willing to work hard for you." Yan Qi patted her on the shoulder and said heavily. You gave me this. I\'m afraid I\'ll sell you even the dregs!

"Yan Qi, you are responsible for training the 16 nights and Shang Lu Qing pole and ye 11 Su mu." Yan San clapped his hand and said. Shanglu Qingpeng is two teenagers that Ling Qingyu gave him to teach. Both of them are fifteen or sixteen years old. It\'s hard to practice again. Yan San taught them some alternative Kung Fu. This time, when he returned to Dazhou, he was afraid that Yan Qi\'s wanted notice had not been forgotten, so it\'s better to stay here and train people.

"Ah?!" Yan Qi was stunned for a while. He also thought of what he had committed in Hangzhou, so he bowed his head and grinned secretly at the same time. Well, this is indeed a very good training base, boys, let seventh master hurt you well!

When the summer monsoon blows, the fully loaded Aeolus sets sail for home.

Yan Qi and his children stayed in Fengshen Island, while Zhu Wei left Zhou Tan, Huang Jing and Song Yu chucheng, and their party of 60 people stayed in Lingjia village on Mindanao island.
