In the blink of an eye, another four years have passed. On Qifeng Mountain, it is very different from the previous desolation. Rows of adobe houses have been built at the foot of the mountain.

There is also a green brick courtyard covering several acres on the top of the mountain, surrounded by a three-foot-high wall.

This courtyard is a place exclusively for Zhang He to practice, and outsiders will not easily come to disturb him.

In the deepest training room, Zhang He sat cross-legged on the ground. After four years of hard training, he finally reached the sixth level of Qi training.

In addition to the cultivation base, after four years of growth, Zhang He's current height has reached about 1.8 meters.

At this moment, there is a spiritual spring in front of him, which is emitting a strong spiritual energy.

Since he placed the spiritual bead filled with space here, a spiritual spring has slowly formed on the ground.

The spiritual veins in the spirit beads are completely integrated with the earth veins, and a miniature spiritual vein has been generated in this place, which continuously generates aura.

In addition to providing spiritual energy and speeding up training, the spiritual meridian can also cultivate a small piece of spiritual field on the spiritual meridian for planting some spiritual plants.

Zhang He heard that the Guliang family has a spiritual field that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Many rare spiritual plants are planted in it, which is the basis for the Guliang family to pass on for tens of thousands of years without decay.

In this courtyard, Zhang He also cultivated a small piece of spiritual field, only half an acre in size. Some spiritual grains were planted in it, and the rice ears had turned golden yellow.

In addition to the small courtyard of green bricks, several barren hills around Qifeng Mountain have been reclaimed into arable land, with a total area of ​​more than 3,000 mu, and now all of them are planted with sweet potatoes.

Now is the season to harvest sweet potatoes, and many tenants are hunched over and shaving sweet potatoes in the fields.

Huge sweet potatoes were dug out and piled together, which looked particularly gratifying.

The total output of sweet potatoes in Qifeng Mountain this year is initially estimated to be 12 million kilograms, which is calculated based on the output of 4,000 kilograms per mu.

In fact, for sweet potatoes, the yield of 4,000 jin per mu is not high. If the water and fertilizer conditions are better, it is easy to reach 8,000 jin.

Just the sweet potatoes of Qifeng Mountain are enough to feed tens of thousands of people in this troubled time.

If he sold it for ten pennies per pound, he could also earn 120,000 taels of silver, or 120 spirit stones.

And his sweet potatoes are also processed into dried sweet potatoes and sold as sweet potato chips, which have higher added value and more income.

If this matter spreads out, it will definitely shock the jaws of countless people. This is an income that a Foundation Establishment cultivator will be jealous of when he sees it.

You must know that the City Lord's Mansion charges 3 million catties of grain from Heishui Town every year, which is already a heavy tax, and the tenants and landlords can't breathe.

If you collect four such towns, you may not be able to get the sweet potatoes of Qifeng Mountain.

In the entire Dehua County, there are only more than 20 townships.

These more than 20 townships are almost the source of income for the entire city lord's mansion, and they have to support a large group of children every year.

Zhang He was sure that if the news got out, the Gu Liang family would never let him go in the face of huge interests.

In order to keep this secret, Zhang He used all the tricks he could think of.

Now the farmers who grow sweet potatoes here bought them from the slave market. Since they bought them, they have been confined to Qifeng Mountain, and for any reason, they are not allowed to leave half a step.

While restricting the freedom of these farmers, Zhang Hehe did not treat them badly. It was best for them to enjoy it and not want to leave.

The first is to be able to eat enough. Just this, it is estimated that the tenant farmers of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty want to squeeze their heads to drill here.

How can the tenants in the world have enough to eat?

However, full of warmth and thinking, Zhang He also bought a lot of female slaves, so that these farmers can get married and have children here and multiply their offspring.

After having children, people will have ties, and it is no longer easy to say that they will run away.

Of course, it is far from enough to have a family just to have enough to eat. When a lower desire is satisfied, a higher pursuit will definitely arise. Human desires are never satisfied.

Therefore, while meeting the material conditions, spiritual education must keep up.

However, it is still in its infancy, Zhang He has not had time to do it, and everyone is just satisfied to have enough to eat. For the time being, a little backwardness in ideological education will not have much impact.

If you can eat here, you will be hungry when you leave.

"Hello son!"

When Zhang He walked out of the courtyard, a patrol hurriedly greeted him.

There are more than ten patrols set up on Qifeng Mountain. This patrol is specially responsible for guarding his yard and preventing outsiders from entering.

"I'm going out, you guys take care of the yard."

"Don't worry, son, don't even think of a fly flying in!"

The patrol members patted their chests and assured that these people were personally selected by Zhang He for training. They have been conscientious and conscientious over the years, and Zhang He is still at ease.

Zhang He walked down the mountain alone on horseback, and at the foot of the mountain a canal had been drawn from the Heishui River.

Several large waterwheels were erected on the side of the canal, and the zombies tied to the waterwheels rode the waterwheels day and night, and they didn't complain when the wind, sun and rain hit them.

Waterwheels lead the water to the mountain, and then follow several channels to irrigate the arable land of the entire Qifeng Mountain.

Zhang He glanced at the screaming zombies on the waterwheel from a distance, and felt a little regretful in his heart. If only the zombies could farm, he wouldn't have to spend so much effort.

But since two broods of zombies were wiped out a few years ago, the remaining zombies don't know where to hide.

When the zombies reappear, I don't know to what extent.

After Zhang He left Qifeng Mountain, he urged his horse to head towards Heishui Town quickly.

In the past few days, it is time to pay taxes to the City Lord's Mansion. He has to bring the most brilliant smile and send it to the door in person, otherwise he will be stabbed by the City Lord's Mansion again.

After several years of construction, the streets of Heishui Town have changed a lot, and the streets are covered with bluestone slabs.

The facades on both sides have been rebuilt and are now two rows of bright blue brick houses.

There were many pedestrians on the street, and it was much more lively than before, but UU reading www.uukanshu.com had nothing else, because the population of Heishui Town had increased by several thousand.

This is because many tenants and refugees heard that Mr. Zhang in Heishui Town was benevolent and righteous and did not like to oppress the tenants, so they took the initiative to vote.

Zhang He is all about taking everything according to the bill, reclaiming wasteland, and engaging in economic construction. All he needs to do is to invest some food in the early stage, and he will slowly pay back after a few years.

Back at Zhangjiazhuang, Wei Peng had already reported to him with a pile of account books.

"Sir, this year's land rent has been recovered. A total of 9 million catties of grain have been collected, 1 million catties more than last year."

Heishui Town has cultivated a lot of wasteland in recent years, and the grain output has increased year by year, so that Zhang He has enough surplus grain to do more things in addition to paying the taxes to the city lord's mansion.

"Okay! Well done, select 3 million catties of good food tomorrow, recruit a group of coolies, and prepare to pay taxes at the City Lord's Mansion."
