In a vast pine forest, Li Banfeng sat on the back of a woodlice and slowly walked through the pine forest.
The woodlouse, also known as the watermelon bug, is also called the rice soup bug. It is a common multi-legged insect found in humid places.
This woodlice is very big, with a back that is more than two meters long and more than one meter wide. It can carry people and luggage.
Not only was it big, but it was also spiritual. This woodlice could talk. It was a very down-to-earth old man. It carried Li Banfeng through the red pine forest and only charged Li Banfeng 50 yuan in Huanguo notes.
Li Banfeng was also a straightforward person and directly gave the woodlice a hundred yuan.
But he was very curious about where this woodlice spent the money it earned.
"Young man, you don't understand. We have our own village. In the village, we have food, shelter, and a market. There are many places to spend money. Ahem…"
The weather was very cold and the wind was very strong, and the woodlice owner was choking and coughing.
The person is so old, but Li Banfeng still sits on his back, and he feels very bad about it.
It's not that he was too lazy to walk these few steps, but the woodlice uncle said that it would be fine if he carried Li Banfeng on his back, but it would be very troublesome if Li Banfeng walked alone.
The wine gourd confirmed what the woodlice said: "This is the iron-skinned dumpling bug. I saw it once somewhere else when I was young. In the new land, the iron-skinned dumpling bug is a rare kind creature. All kinds of creatures near its residence will give it some face."
"Sister, aren't you young now?" Li Banfeng touched the wine gourd.
"Your mouth is sweeter than honey." Jiuhulu sprayed a puff of wine mist.
Li Banfeng was chatting with Jiuhulu, and the old man asked, "Young man, who were you talking to just now?"
The woodlice couldn't hear the sound of the wine gourd, so Li Banfeng explained casually: "I like to talk to myself."
"I have a daughter who has the same problem. The village doctor said she had hysteria and that she was cured after taking three doses of medicine. You can go see our doctor someday. This disease needs to be treated early and it can be cured."
“Is there a doctor in your village?”
"Why not? She's a great doctor, pretty, a first-rate girl!"
What type of girl is this?
After walking for a full eight hours, the woodlice passed through the red pine forest and, as she had said, encountered no trouble along the way.
After jumping off the woodlice's back, Li Banfeng gave the woodlice another fifty, making a total of one hundred and fifty.
The old man felt bad and refused several times, but Li Banfeng insisted on giving it to him.
The old man sighed and said, "Young man, you are a good man. There is a golden shrimp pond in front. Are you here to catch shrimps?"
Li Banfeng shook his head: "What's so good about shrimp?"
"The shrimp is alive in the pond, but it will become dead if you take it out. After being dead for two hours, it will turn into gold.
There used to be a lot of people coming here to catch shrimps, but then Blood Tooth Mountain suddenly appeared, and no one dared to come anymore.
If you want to catch shrimp, don't be greedy. If you encounter small shrimp, you have to let them go. Catch at most a dozen. Don't anger the king shrimp. The king shrimp is more than a hundred feet long. It can lure people into the pond with one hook and chew even the bones."
Li Banfeng thanked him and turned away.
The old sowbread lady continued to wait for business at the edge of the woods.
A centipede crawled onto the woodlice's back, rolled up a piece of ocean with its tentacles, and handed it to the woodlice.
The old man used his tentacles to test the quality of the money and said to the centipede, "Brother, you have so much money, I can't make a change."
The centipede smiled and said, "You can keep it first. This is not the first time I have done business with you. I will give it to you every day in the future."
The woodlice carried the centipede into the red pine forest, chatting and laughing along the way.
Li Banfeng brushed off the snow on his body and came to the edge of the cliff.
This cliff is densely packed with caves, even denser than the insect holes on Li Banfeng's body.
According to the markings on the map, the seventh row from bottom to top and the sixth cave from left to right was the one he went to.
The cliff was difficult to climb, so Li Banfeng decided to rest for a day and drill a hole tomorrow.
He took out a Jinyuan Pill, ate it along with a Lanye Pill, and sat quietly under the cliff.
After more than ten minutes, Li Banfeng's body fell numb.
I am not afraid of numbness. The Tang sword, pendulum, wine gourd and silk earrings are all by my side.
But he didn't dare go back to his home to take medicine.
My wife's breathing was not very even last night. Judging from normal sleeping habits, she seemed to be about to wake up.
According to Li Banfeng's calculations, after taking this pill, he will be promoted to the third level of travel cultivation.
Next he will face a difficult challenge. He must learn the third level of travel skills and cross thousands of rivers.
…
In Haichiling, Toudaoling and every household in the city, people were cleaning with brooms, mops and rags.
Wiping off the dust and taking away the garbage are secondary. The main target of cleaning this time is the mosquito corpses.
The entire Toudaoling was littered with dead mosquitoes. After being cleaned up at night, there was a new layer of debris the next morning.
Lu Dongjun once said that the dead bodies of mosquitoes should be ignored.
But the people of Toudaoling never get tired of it. When they see the dead mosquitoes, they will pick them up, pile them up, and then burn them, thinking that this will eliminate the trouble forever.
And the process is quite satisfying.
As for the rest of what Lu Dongjun said, of course I had to listen to him.
Lu Dongjun asked them to go to the train station to queue up to receive food. They all went to the train station in an orderly manner and queued up honestly. No one scrambled for food.
Lu Dongjun asked them to make beautiful clothes for the New Year. Anyone who had some extra money went to Lu's Cloth Shop to buy cloth. They even bought out all the stocks in the largest cloth shop in Haichiling.
Lu Dongjun was preparing to open a factory. Someone had prepared the land for him, someone had contacted for equipment, and many people were waiting to work in the factory.
Lu Dongjun wanted to do more business, so local gangs, big and small, gathered together all the businesses that had been ruined by the insect plague and sold them to Lu Dongjun at low prices.
This is a token of allegiance to Lu Dongjun.
All the local gangs wanted to join Lu Dongjun.
Lu Dongjun is now the god of Haichiling.
Because he killed all the mosquitoes in Toudaoling!
Ever since he sprinkled the medicated white rice at the Shiweitian Restaurant, the mosquitoes in Toudaoling became extinct in a short time!
Late at night, drunk Lu Dongjun returned to the house, drank a cup of tea, and said to Wan Jinxian: "Old Wan, when will we start at Erdaoling?"
Wan Jinxian handed Lu Dongjun a list:
"Master, there is no rush for this. We haven't started the business in Toudaoling yet.
I have selected these dozen shops for you, please take a look first."
Lu Dongjun pushed the list aside and said, "Don't bother me with these trivial matters. I have already told the accountant that all business matters are left to you.
I'm telling you, you have to pay more attention to the Erdaoling incident. I've already discussed it with people from other states tonight. Within five days, the mosquitoes in Erdaoling must be exterminated!"
Wan Jinxian nodded and said, "Don't worry about this, but I heard that the He family and the Ma family have sent people to Haichiling, and I am worried that they will come here to pick peaches."
"Let them come," Lu Dongjun sneered, "and see if anyone will care about them in Haichiling!"
"Many people from Sanyingmen and Qingyun Society have also come."
Lu Dongjun spat: "Let them come, all of them come, I'll be waiting for them one by one!"
"The boss of the Chu family is here. He is not here to cause trouble. He is here to discuss business with you. We have received a lot of business, so he also wants to come and share a piece of the pie."
Lu Dongjun smiled and said, "Want to get rich with us? Sure, take him with you. Boss Chu has always been a sensible person, but his sister is too reckless!"
"Baihuamen and Jiang Xiangbang also want to discuss business with you..."
"Talk, anyone can talk. As long as you are sensible, you can have meat with me.
But there is one thing, I will sell them shares of the business I bought at three times the price. I will only sell them shares, and the price must be at least three times the price. If they don’t want to buy it, then forget it!
They want to open a new business in Haichiling, that's fine, but they have to give me half of the shares. If they don't want to, they can open the business today and smash the shop tomorrow. If anyone doesn't accept it, just give it a try."
Wan Jinxian bowed his head and said, "Master, I will listen to you."
Lu Dongjun shook his head and said, "Don't come to me for everything. I'm too busy dealing with all those reporters every day. Lao Wan, I'll leave these things to you!"
…
Outside the house, He Haisheng bought an evening paper from a newsboy.
The entire front page of the local newspaper in Haichiling was occupied by Lu Dongjun, and there was also a lot of news about him on the second and third pages.
He Haisheng looked at the layout of the house, pulled up the collar of his tweed coat, and disappeared silently into the night.
…
In the Lu family mansion, Monkey Qiu was also reading the newspaper. The news about Haichiling had already spread to Green Water Bay.
Lu Yuanshan, the eldest son of the Lu family, said, "Uncle Qiu, should we go to Haichiling?"
Qiu Zhiheng shook his head and said, "I can't go. Now is not the time yet."
Lu Yuanhai said: "If we don't go now, we will lose our business in Haichiling."
Qiu Zhiheng put down the newspaper and said, "The business has been lost. The shopkeepers of Haichiling handed over the account books to Lu Dongjun."
Lu Yuanshan glanced at Lu Yuanhai. It seemed that Qiu Zhiheng also had a lot of spies in Haichiling.
But Qiu Zhiheng was not worried about the current situation: "It's not just our family that lost business. The He family, the Ma family, and the Chu family all suffered a great loss. Let's see who can't bear it first."
Lu Yuanshan talked about another matter: "The head of Sanyingmen has invited me again. Should I go or not?"
Qiu Zhiheng nodded and said, "Go, but don't agree to anything from him. Talk to him slowly and wait until the matter of Haichiling has a result."
…
At Yuezhou Third Hospital, He Jiaqing sat up on the hospital bed.
In his ear, a man's voice was whispering: "Lu Dongjun is very prosperous now. He has completely taken over Toudaoling. He buys low and sells high in all kinds of businesses, making a lot of money."
He Jiaqing looked calm, and then asked, "Where is Erdaoling?"
“There are many families in Erdaoling who have come to see Lu Dongjun and pay homage to him.”
"What's the point of paying respect to the mountain? Where is their family's property?"
“No property has been handed over.”
He Jiaqing frowned and said, "If you don't give up your own property, it's all nonsense to pay homage to the leader. These people use these tricks every day, they are the scourge of Pro Province!
Can Erdaoling still be taken?"
"It's terrible. Let alone the second ridge, even the first ridge can't hold up."
"Don't hold on if you can't hold on any longer," He Jiaqing ordered, "Tell Lao Wan to close the net."
ps: How long can Lu Dongjun continue to enjoy his glory?
