…
Late November.
After Achen led the Miao army away from the Blue Miao Daobei Village, they headed north along the river.
Along the way, he also instructed more than a dozen Miao villages in dangerous areas around the riverbank to move to higher ground before March of the following year.
The village chief and elders should tally up the required expenses and other supplies, report them to the head village chief, and then the head village chief will contact Shengtang.
...
December 7th.
Ah Chen and his companions went straight up the Qingque River and arrived at the Starry Sky Fruit Forest.
Today is the day that Achen convenes a meeting with the chief chiefs of all major branches of the Miao people in eastern Guizhou and the core members of the Miao tribes.
The orchard is now under complete martial law.
The Miao army directly replaced the original core elite Miao people's defenses, and no Miao people were allowed to approach the greenhouse on the side of the natural lake without permission.
Ah Chen hasn't had a good rest these past few days!
During the day, I traveled to various Miao villages to arrange things there.
At night, because there was no signal in the deep mountains, he could only rely on the secret techniques of Meng Axi, the Guibei Spirit Maiden who had always been silently by his side, to contact Amo, who was far away in Gangcheng.
After all, it's already December, and the port city is at a crucial juncture.
It's almost the end of the year!
Winter
The sky is getting brighter.
At this moment, Achen is on the phone with Amo from the floating point above his house in the Starry Sky Orchard.
Because in these remote mountains, there are very few places with a cell phone signal.
These days, I have to use Ah Xi's secret technique every night, and Ah Xi's body can't take it anymore.
Even now, standing right in front of Ah Chen, her face is still somewhat pale.
After all, that kind of secret technique for transmitting messages over long distances consumes a great deal of energy.
How could A-Chen not see A-Xi's devotion to A-Chen?
so--
He felt sorry for A-Xi.
But for A-Xi, as long as it can help the head of the household, she wouldn't hesitate to do anything, even if it meant over-consuming energy or taking her life.
…
"Ah Chen, a new round of attacks from international capital has begun! And it's still part of your plan."
Amo sounded tired on the other end of the phone, as if she hadn't had a moment's rest either.
Ah Chen said, "The next wave of turmoil will come in February. You should pay attention to timing."
"Don't worry, I know! It's just that the provincial secretary contacted me. What are your thoughts? Are you really not going to utilize the resources of the various counties?"
That's right, the provincial secretary already knows about the situation in Miao territory, after all, the amount of supplies purchased by Shengtang is quite large.
Over the past twenty days, Sheng Tang has temporarily erected more than a dozen large warehouses, all within the Miao village territory.
But the commotion was quite significant!
Someone had already reported this to Lincheng.
The provincial secretary contacted Amo.
Amo replied that they were preparing for Achen's succession next year, but the most senior witches in their Miao region had predicted through secret arts that there might be a natural disaster next year, so they also needed to prepare early.
Whether Amo believed it or not, he didn't care, since the Miao people's secret arts did indeed include the ability to predict the future.
It existed in ancient times, but the technique was lost later.
However, others are unaware that the Miao people's secret art of predicting the future has been lost.
To Amo and Achen's surprise, the provincial official preferred to believe it rather than dismiss it.
Since he couldn't contact Achen, he asked Amo to tell Achen to work with the other counties in the area to handle the matter together, but not to make it public.
After all, speaking about something unknown and without any basis will only cause panic.
At that moment, Ah Chen heard Ah Mo's question and said:
“The county magistrates of Tan County and Rongjiang and Tianjin Counties have all arrived and are downstairs now. I’ve been thinking about it, and since that person from Lincheng has said so, then let’s all work together.”
“Ah Chen, it’s best if you think this way. After all, this isn’t just a matter for Miao territory.”
"I know! As times change, we can't remain unaffected."
…
After exchanging opinions on this matter, Ah Chen and Ah Mo hung up the phone.
Go downstairs, --
Inside the main room, Tan Xian and two other men of similar age were already waiting. They immediately went up to A Chen when they saw him come out.
"Ah Chen, the Holy Maiden has contacted us, and that person from Lincheng has also called. What exactly is going on on your end? How many counties do you need to cooperate with?"
Clearly, Tan County and his group only received a call from above, but still didn't know what Ah Chen was up to. The person in Lin City didn't explain it to them in detail either.
But they were told that as long as the Miao people did not break the law, they would receive special treatment.
Leaving aside the extent of the Miao people's contributions to the development of eastern Guizhou, they are, after all, a minority group.
Ah Chen glanced at Tan Xian and the other two, and said, "I'll say it again: prevention is better than cure!"
"Gentlemen, any further explanation is futile! You will understand in the future, but today, there is an important meeting in Miao territory."
"You are specially invited to attend this meeting. No matter what we say, whether you believe it or not, you must not disclose it."
"please--"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Chen took the lead and walked out of the main room.
The three people from Tan County were still completely confused.
A thin layer of ice and snow had already covered the orchard.
Looking around, all that could be seen was a vast expanse of white.
The Miao people coming and going kept greeting Achen.
These days, wherever Mu Achen goes, the Miao people in each village are overjoyed and enthusiastic.
The Starry Sky Orchard was built by Achen and the Miao people from three different branches through hard work, and its current success is largely due to Achen's efforts.
He's been gone for months, and the Miao people miss him dearly.
At this moment, wherever he went, the busy aunties and girls would stop and stare at him expectantly.
