Chapter 57: Ye Lu, the leader of Zhuhui, who was promoting the product, also had the same idea.
Ye Lu had the same idea.
The moment the moon slowly appeared, the moonlight shone down from the sky, and the moonlight was like water.
Ye Lu and his men had already moved the laurel tree down from the carriage, while the other three people on the other side had already dug a hole at the designated location, which was exactly where Ye Lu pointed out at the beginning.
The ghost scholar poured down the strange spiritual soil as Ye Lu said. The dark black soil with a faint strange aura poured out from the tree root container. As soon as it fell into the cave, it seemed to come alive and spread flat on the bottom of the cave. Then Ye Lu carefully took out the tree root container outside the laurel tree and planted the laurel tree in the mud hole.
The others slowly filled the tree roots with soil and watered them, all in one go.
Ye Lu then crushed a handful of swamp tree beads, and the broken pieces were gently carried by the wind to the roots of the laurel tree and fell onto the soil.
Under the moonlight, the laurel tree stretched out its branches, and the moonlight condensed on the leaves to form a light layer of frost.
"How do you feel?" Ye Lu asked Laurel.
The laurel tree's consciousness was more active than ever before. Upon hearing Ye Lu's question, it happily sent out messages such as "happy, like the moonlight, comfortable, the black soil is delicious", etc.
As soon as Ye Lu felt the message coming from his spiritual consciousness, he knew that the transplanted laurel tree was a good idea.
The spiritual consciousness was much more lively than when it was in the carriage before.
"Successful?" Uncle He Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ye Lu smile. This was what he was worried about.
Ye Lu nodded, a smile in his eyes, and said: "It likes it here very much."
"That's fine. After the laurel tree has taken root, let it grow. Before it blooms, you must remember to give it more strange beads. Didn't you exchange a lot of strange beads from the caravan? Don't be reluctant to give them up when the time comes. The white millet seeds will be harvested in a few days, don't forget." As soon as the work was done, Uncle He Qi didn't want to stay any longer, and he gave some advice before leaving.
Ye Lu escorted the three people down the mountain and said, "I understand."
Ye Lu knew very well that the most valuable thing among these three mountains was the laurel tree. How could he not treat it well?
Uncle He Qi was still a little worried, so he said, "If you have nothing to do in the next few months, why don't you come to my place? I'll teach you how to farm." His nephew had never farmed before, so He Qi was not at all reassured, fearing that his nephew would waste the good seeds and good land.
"..." Ye Lu was helpless. They didn't trust him.
However, he could also feel Uncle He Qi's good intentions. After thinking for a moment, Ye Lu agreed.
After all, white millet concerns their food for the next year.
At this time, Uncle He Qi finally left with satisfaction.
In the following period of time, Ye Lu began to get busy.
When he returned to the mountain, he had to help with the reclamation. After all, Uncle He Qi and the other two were just helping to remove the weird things and cut the grass, grass roots, tree roots and so on. They had to do it themselves. They had to use fire to burn the grass roots and fertilize the soil. Then they could continue to grow crops. The ghost scholar was busy building the house, and from time to time he had to coordinate the remaining weird food and supplies of the three people.
Anyway, all their things have been moved into the cave. They first installed a wooden door on the ice cave, and put the strange food boxes inside the door to keep them fresh. The three of them lived not far away, in three different places without interfering with each other. The other things were placed by the ghost scholar according to a certain pattern to ensure that the three of them could find them at the first time they wanted them.
Where is the playful person?
He is also busy. During this period he also has to cut trees, make boards for the house, etc.
During the day, Ye Lu would go down the mountain to the He family and listen to his uncles He San and He Qi taking turns to teach their planting experience. Sometimes, they would also call village elders who had experience in planting trees to teach Ye Lu together.
Gradually, Ye Lu began to understand some of the clues.
Back in the mountains, I can now tend the land properly.
As the days passed, the village distributed white millet seeds, three pounds per person. Ye Lu took the seeds and returned to the mountain. According to Uncle He Qi's method, he first cultivated a piece of land carefully, then raised seedlings, and finally divided the seedlings and sowed the seeds.
Ye Lu reclaimed nearly ten acres of land this time and planted millet on it, which was just enough for three people. The main focus of the three of them was to take care of the laurel tree, and they planted millet just to fill their stomachs.
Seedling cultivation and sowing are carried out in an orderly manner.
The other side.
Under a mountain range.
A caravan was waiting at the foot of the mountain. The leading man, a black-robed man, was tall, and the people around him were a section shorter than him. There were also several strong soldiers at the foot of the mountain, with fiery red patterns on their faces that looked like flames.
"Captain Zhu Hui, you can't go up!" The soldier on the left stretched out his hand, and the spear slid out automatically, blocking in front of Zhu Hui, and said in a low voice.
The soldier on the right raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "Captain Zhu Hui, I remember that you came out not long ago and set up a caravan on your own, right? Do you still have a share of the Guishi food?"
"According to the rules, our leader will not receive you without fifteen portions of strange food or more than three portions of companion strange plants." The soldier stated this reality in a calm tone.
Zhu Hui gave a bitter smile. If he had so much share, he wouldn't have waited here for so long.
The Fire Ghost Tribe was the first force he wanted to do business with. The Fire Ghost Tribe did not seem very powerful at first glance, and the mountain range it occupied in the west was only a medium-sized territory, far from being called a force. However, it was said that the Fire Spirit leader of the Fire Ghost Tribe had a certain relationship with the rumored Moon Spirit Tribe.
There are even rumors that the other party was once from the Yueling tribe, but because of his different awakening talents, he came out and established his own tribe.
The Moon Spirit Tribe is one of the most famous top powers on this continent. It is the best target in Zhu Hui's mind. Unfortunately, the share of strange food controlled by his caravan is too small. Even the Fire Ghost Tribe may not pass it, not to mention the Moon Spirit Tribe which is countless times stronger.
"It seems that there is nothing left?" The soldier also placed the weapon in his hand across Zhu Hui's front, and his intention to send him away was very obvious.
Zhu Hui had no choice but to take a step back.
Then, the two young boys Zhu Bai and Lu Hui grabbed Zhu Hui, who was about to go forward, and pulled him back, and said worriedly: "Boss, do we still need to go look for them?" This question was asked by the smarter Zhu Bai.
"Yes, yes, the soldiers of the Fire Ghost Tribe look very fierce. They will definitely not let us pass. Boss, if you get any closer, they will burn you with fire, right?" Such heart-wrenching words were obviously said by Lu Hui.
"Bullshit, they don't even dare to burn the boss, and they can't beat the boss." Zhu Bai said, not willing to be outdone.
Zhu Hui's strength is not low, and he is not afraid of the two Fire Ghost soldiers at all. It's just that they are here to do business, not to make enemies, so there is no need to fight and kill them.
"It's mainly because of you. Boss, I found something good this time." Zhu Hui's face turned dark. Now, he really felt that when the 70,000 leaders kicked him out of the caravan, they stuffed these two kids in just to take revenge on him. Almost every kid in Shizhu Village pretends to be obedient and sweet-talkers.
The only two little guys in this group who are so touching are all under his command. How can this not be considered a blessing?
"I'm so lucky to have you guys." Zhu Hui couldn't help but complain. He was afraid that sooner or later he would be pissed off to death by these two little brats.
"Boss, did you exchange the laurel leaves with Hecun?" The two young boys were not angry at the sarcasm. On the contrary, as soon as they heard Zhu Hui's words, they understood instantly. Their brains worked quickly, their eyes lit up, and they whispered: "Yes, yes, good things should be given to rich people. This fire ghost leader seems to be very rich. He must like it."
Zhu Hui was also beaming with joy, and said with certainty, "I'm sure he will be tempted by the laurel leaves. There are thirty leaves in total anyway, so let's take out a few to test the waters first."
"Wait, Boss, you want to..." Zhu Bai was not stupid. He understood what Zhu Hui said. He turned around and whispered to his boss: "Do you want to find a few more forces?"
"Yes, we only look for villages with signature strange food. Some forces have a scarce share of strange food, and they didn't even get the 70,000, but instead got it from other big businessmen in Shizhu Village. If we get these strange food shares, we can exchange them for anything we want. I'm using the bay leaves as a stepping stone." Zhu Hui waved his hand and expressed his thoughts.
"But don't we know the specific effects of laurel seeds? We only have the effect of bay leaves. What if we succeed and the laurel seeds are useless next time? We will definitely offend the Fire Ghost Tribe and even the Yueling Mountain forces behind the Fire Ghost leader." Green Gray poured cold water on him.
"I already have a solution for this." Zhu Hui raised his eyebrows, neither anxious nor flustered.
"Tell me, boss." Zhu Bai pulled Zhu Hui's sleeve, looked at the soldiers of the Fire Ghost Tribe not far away, and dragged Zhu Hui behind.
Luhui also looked at Zhuhui eagerly, wanting to know what good ideas Zhuhui had. He also liked the Fire Ghost Tribe, mainly because the Fire Ghost leader was too rich, and the people in Shizhu Village liked rich people the most.
"It's simple. Let's just say it directly." Zhu Hui kept the question in suspense for a while before explaining.
"Just tell me?" the two young boys said in unison.
"Yes, let's just introduce that we have a strange plant in our hands. The specific function of the leaves and the future share of the strange plant fruit are still uncertain. Let's see if the leader wants it." Zhu Hui said confidently: "Trust me, rich people don't mind taking a gamble."
"That's really good." Zhu Bai was completely moved. He followed Zhu Hui's idea and had countless thoughts in his mind. With strange food, their next caravan would definitely be bigger and stronger. By then, they would be the best when they returned to the village, eating strange food, eating their fill, and basking in the sun! !
They can also bask in the sun while enjoying the envious gazes of others.
No? Needless to say, they are indeed children from the same caravan, and they have exactly the same idea of ​​returning home in glory.
"Then what should we do next?" Zhu Bai did not object. Instead, he looked at the two fire ghost soldiers opposite with an especially friendly look.
"I'll go first, you know what's next!" Zhu Hui exchanged a look with the two young men, indicating that they understood each other. The three of them looked at each other and nodded in unison.
"Okay, I'll go first."
"Two young men, we have met before. We have come to the Fire Ghost Tribe to exchange things before with the caravan of 70,000 leaders. This time we really found something good, so we came to ask the Fire Ghost leader to take a look." Leader Zhu Hui came up to the two Fire Ghost soldiers and said with a smile.
"As for the share, you also know that the newly established caravan does not have so much share." Leader Zhu Hui looked somewhat helpless.
The two Fire Ghost soldiers looked at each other with some hesitation. It was precisely because they had met before and knew Zhu Hui's background that they allowed Zhu Hui to stay here for such a long time. If it were someone else, their ashes would have been scattered.
Zhu Hui has a good reputation. He is said to be the most talented and promising of the new batch of businessmen in Shizhu Village. He has already mastered several strange food trade routes early on. It is very credible to say that he has good things.
"Really? We are businessmen. How could we cheat?" Zhu Hui saw that the two were wavering and immediately stepped up his persuasion. He said, "You two just need to inform them that Zhu Hui, a businessman from Shizhu Village, has found a kind of moon-related strange food and requests to meet with the leader of the fire ghosts."
"Moon-type strange food..." The two Fire Ghost soldiers hesitated even more. Their leader would indeed collect them and sometimes even inquire about them.
Hurry up, Zhu Hui raised an eyebrow at the back.
Green Gray and Red White stepped forward together and without leaving any trace, stuffed two handfuls of strange food, fire wood seeds, into the hands of the two fire ghost soldiers. This was a kind of strange food of the fire attribute.
The two Fire Ghost soldiers reflexively took the Fire Wood Seeds in their hands. As soldiers, they also needed a lot of trick food. The Fire Wood Seeds were of very good quality. The two looked at each other and made up their minds. One of them turned his head and said softly: "Then I will go and report it. It's just that we don't know what the leader thinks, and we don't know whether we can meet you or not."
"That's right, that's right. I'm just sorry to bother you, little brother." Zhu Hui said with a smile. The two young boys behind him looked fine, not like the people who had just been given benefits.
The Fire Ghost soldier then turned around and walked towards the mountain. After an unknown amount of time, the young man looked at Zhu Hui with a strange expression on his face and said, "The leader is calling you over."
"Only three people are allowed to pass." The Fire Ghost soldier pointed at Zhu Hui and Zhu Bai and Lu Hui behind him, and said concisely: "The caravan behind you cannot enter. Sorry, the Fire Ghost Mountains have their own rules. The three of you? The leader has given extra permission for you to enter."
"Of course." Zhu Hui still smiled and said, "We are all familiar with the rules of Fire Ghost Mountain."
The two Fire Ghost soldiers then breathed a sigh of relief. They were unwilling to do this and offend people for no reason, but rules are rules and they had no choice.
"Please follow me."
Zhu Hui and the other two followed one of the Fire Ghost soldiers along the path up the mountain. In the distance, they could see a huge, pitch-black stone house. The stone house was so black that it looked as if it had been burned by flames. Even from such a distance, it still gave off a hot breath.
Zhu Hui looked at the stone house in the distance, subconsciously touched the box containing laurel leaves in his arms, squinted his eyes, and his mind was in a state of confusion.
"We're here." Not long after, the Fire Ghost soldier led everyone to the door of the dark stone house, turned around and said goodbye: "The leader has been waiting in the house for a long time, Chief Zhu Hui can go in directly."
Zhu Hui nodded, walked through the wide-open stone door, and entered the huge black stone house that looked like a small palace.
The furnishings in the house are decorated with various flame patterns, most of which are exquisite stone products, and only a few are bluish-white porcelain.
"Zhu Hui, long time no see." In the center of the room was a pitch-black stone table with various exquisite stone tools on it. Behind the table, a white young man with fiery red hair sat on a wide stone chair. He was supporting his chin with one hand, looking over boredly and said, "What good stuff do you have? Do you have to let me see it?"
