It seems that the government is "taking advantage of others' kindness"!
Well, if we go by the law, the Luozhou governor is not considered to be cheating.
This piece of forest is indeed a "barren mountain".
However, the reality is that the so-called ownerless things are actually territories occupied by the Li tribe for hundreds of years.
Even if the government sells it to someone else, no one else can take it away!
The swords and arrows of the Li tribe are not vegetarian.
In addition, the Li tribe lives in the mountains all year round, dealing with snakes, insects, rats and ants all day long.
The witch doctors in their tribe developed many snake and insect venoms according to local conditions.
As long as people feel that the tribe has been offended, they will directly start anti-virus!
Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but suspect that these man-made poison gases might also be classified as "miasma"!
"However, since you've spent money, we can't let you suffer any loss!"
"How about this, you can harvest this sugarcane forest, but this forest still belongs to us, Li!"
Li Mingzhu had a very good impression of Gu Qingcheng. After listening to Gu Qingcheng's explanation, she knew that she had been deceived by the government and felt somewhat sympathetic.
She thought about it and waved her hand generously, indicating that she would not let Gu Qingcheng return empty-handed.
Gu Qingcheng felt more and more that Li Mingzhu was a very cute girl.
"Thank you! However, since this forest belongs to the Li tribe, I can't let you suffer any loss!"
"I have some use for these sugarcanes, so I'll buy them at the market price, okay?"
Gu Qingcheng is open-minded, and Li Mingzhu also feels that Gu Qingcheng is sociable.
"Okay! Then I won't refuse!"
"Of course, brothers should settle accounts clearly! Even if they are friends, they should not let their friends suffer losses!"
"You, you consider me a friend?"
"We are friends, aren't we? Otherwise, why would Sister Li be so generous to me?"
"Ah? You, you call me sister?" Don't you think I'm a barbarian, rude and lowly?
"Yes! I think my sister should be a few years older than me, so of course I have to call you sister!"
"...I, I'm twelve years old. How about you?"
"Aqing is nine years old!"
"Haha! Yes! Yes, yes! I am indeed older than you! Gu, Gu family's sister!"
Li Mingzhu was a little flattered and at a loss by Gu Qingcheng's enthusiasm.
In fact, Dawn Pearl is also a darling of heaven.
If Gu Qingcheng relied on her status as a noble lady from an aristocratic family and looked down on her as a barbarian, Li Mingzhu would not tolerate it.
Humph, we are all precious and raised in the palm of our hands, so who is worse than who?
She, Li Mingzhu, is the future leader of the Li tribe!
Than arrogant?
She will never lose!
However, Gu Qingcheng did not despise her. Instead, she sincerely wanted to make friends with her.
Li Mingzhu's heart felt as if it had been soaked in a hot spring, moist and warm, so comfortable and soothing!
The most important thing is that that "Aqing" also called her Ajie!
Hey sister!
Hehehe, even a noble lady like Aqing treats her as her elder sister.
Li Mingzhu just felt that Gu Qingcheng in front of her was the cutest and most caring sister in the world!
Huoshui: ...I'll just look, I won't say anything!
Alas, poor Dawn Pearl, such a simple, innocent and silly child.
Where had she ever seen a big boss like Gu Qingcheng who had a black heart but a sweet mouth?
Gu Qingcheng can even deal with the old foxes in the court clearly.
Not to mention a mountain girl like Li Mingzhu, whose eyes are full of clear stupidity.
Tsk tsk, without saying too much, just the word "sister" was enough to make Li Mingzhu so confused that she lost her mind.
If Gu Qingcheng didn't still have some conscience, that silly girl Li Baozhu would have handed over the entire forest!
"Really! Sister, I've told you, brothers should settle accounts clearly! You treat me like a sister, so I won't let you suffer any loss!"
"Also, I need a lot of sugarcane. If you really want to help me, please keep an eye out for me!"
"In the future, if your people are free, they can help me plant sugarcane."
Facing the enthusiastic Li Mingzhu, Gu Qingcheng had a bit of utilitarianism in her heart, but also a bit of sincerity.
She did want to use Li Bu, but this "use" itself was a win-win situation.
If they get sugarcane, the Li tribe can get copper coins, or daily necessities such as salt and cloth.
In addition, the Li Department of the Dawn Pearl is common knowledge to Gu Qingcheng.
If successful, she could manage all the Li, Liao and other mountain people in Lingnan.
This will also be a powerful help to her!
"Okay! I'll listen to you then!"
"By the way, we don't want money, I want salt."
Li Mingzhu is definitely not a naive person. She will not give up her own interests just because of a few nice words from a stranger.
Although he called her "A-mei", he was still thinking about the supplies that the village needed most.
"Sure! I'll give you the best fine salt!"
Since Gu Qingcheng wants to take over the Li tribe, he naturally won't make trouble over trivial matters.
Not only did she provide Dawn Pearl with the salt she needed most, she also provided her with the finest refined sea salt...
