The next few days--
Every day, Achen went in and out of the mountains accompanied by Yang Aqi, the chief of the Qingmiao village, and the core group of Miao people.
He visited almost all of the dozens of villages in the vicinity, and even personally inspected all the routes.
They set off at dawn every day and usually didn't return until dark.
Jiang Ya and Yang Ayao also arrived at Sheng Tang's side.
The footprints Mu Achen left throughout the entire Qingmiao region made the Miao people feel that their future Miao king was about to make a big move.
As everyone knows, when Achen was working on the Starry Sky Fruit Forest before, he didn't watch it for this long as he did this time.
No matter which village Ah Chen went to in the mountains, the local Miao people would immediately follow and tell him about the surrounding area.
No matter what A-Chen asked, they would just tell him what they knew.
As for those secret and hidden places, although they did not hide them, they only told Ah Chen and the Holy Maiden Ah Mo in secret.
One week later--
That day, Ah Chen and his friends went up the mountain again!
This time, not only were elite Miao people carrying guns accompanying her, but several young women also accompanied Amo.
Balong Ancient Village in the early morning --
Clouds and mist rise from the valley, swirling upwards, while the rainbow-like clouds on the horizon seem to flow like feathers.
They were a group of a hundred people, all carrying dry rations.
They've gotten used to it these past few days, because Ah Chen and the others don't go back to the Miao village for lunch, and they don't want to waste time on a meal, so--
Every day before setting off, the aunties and girls of Balong Ancient Village would get up early to prepare a day's worth of food for the Miao men who were going up the mountain.
Today, they entered the mountains from the north side of Balong Ancient Village!
In the mountains and forests--
The bamboo grove is lush and green, and the birdsong is especially deep!
Looking down from the mountainside, wisps of smoke rise from chimneys.
The terraced fields are like brocade, and some Miao people are working in the fields.
Upon reaching the summit, one is greeted by a sea of clouds.
The spot where Ah Chen and his group were standing was shrouded in a sea of clouds, with several Miao villages appearing and disappearing in the mist.
As the first rays of dawn break through the clouds, the morning sunlight shines on the sea of clouds, like a thin veil!
It's breathtakingly beautiful and exhilarating.
Through the gaps in the sea of clouds, the lush greenery surrounding the Miao village in the distance seemed to blend into the sea of clouds!
The entire scene of the green seedlings resembles a huge ink painting, inspiring endless imagination.
"Hey, this location...we think we were here the day before yesterday!"
"This isn't just the third time we've been here!"
"If I remember correctly, Ah Chen has been looking around the area around here most of the past few days!"
"Could it be that Ah Chen has chosen this area?"
"That's impossible! This is in the mountains!"
Beside Yang Ahu, the core Miao people of Qingmiao asked in hushed tones.
Chief Yang Aqi was puzzled, because they had been racking their brains for the past few days but couldn't figure out what Achen was up to.
Alive?
What is alive?
Does he want to start a breeding business?
"Achen--"
The accompanying village chiefs, seeing Ah Chen gazing at the sea of clouds while sketching, curiously gathered around.
Yang Aqi asked, "Achen, have you chosen this area that you painted?"
"More or less, it's basically confirmed."
Ah Chen turned around and said, "Using the area behind Balong Ancient Village as the boundary, it extends northwards, covering more than twenty surrounding Miao villages, all the way to—"
"Do you see that over there? Ahead, there's a range of mountains where clouds are rising from the mountains. To the left, it connects to Wuling Village, and to the right, it's the range of mountains with the most streams and rivers that forms the boundary."
"Look, I've already drawn the map. All of these things circled in red are connected together."
This time, not only the village chiefs, but even the core Miao men all gathered around.
but--
After watching it, everyone was still completely clueless, not understanding it very well, and feeling utterly confused.
Finally, it was Yang Aze, who was well-educated, who stepped forward and explained it to everyone.
But after everyone heard this--
"Yang Aze, how dare you spout nonsense and mislead us all! I'll beat you to death!" Chief Yang Aqi immediately roared.
The other village chiefs also didn't believe it, because--
Yang Aze was very frustrated. "Father, I really didn't misunderstand Achen's meaning. If you don't believe me, ask Achen."
"Get out--"
"Father, ask Ah Chen!" Yang Aze was exasperated.
The hot-tempered chieftain of Wuling Village went straight for the kill, bumping Yang Aze with the butt of his gun, making Yang Aze wince in pain.
"Achen--"
"Ah Chen, this area you've chosen is all mountains and forests. There's no fertile land at all, not even a single good piece of soil. Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
“Yes, Ah Chen, what can you do with these mountains and forests? If you have to choose, choose fertile land.”
The village chiefs all wanted to give Ah Chen the best, and even Chief Yang said, "The scenery here is very beautiful, but in this forest... even if you want to raise Ah Chen, it doesn't seem like there's much of a chance."
Ah Chen glanced at Ah Mo beside him and said to everyone, "I know what I'm doing. Can you figure out how many acres this whole area I've drawn is?"
"Achen, does the area you drew include the Miao village and fields?"
"Not included! We don't want a single piece of farmland; it can't be used for this kind of thing. Those fields have other uses."
"Also, don't talk about Yang Aze like that so easily in the future. His explanations to you are basically correct."
Forehead--
Yang Aze has had it so tough!
