I inherited a family fortune of 5000 years

Chapter 1105 First contract for 100 years
It seems to have found an outlet, or it may be that the intimacy Zhang Menglong brought to the little girl has infected the woman, and the woman seems to have opened up the chatterbox.

In fact, a long time ago, Lingyunzong was still very much loved by the people of the Shengjin Dynasty. The disciples of Lingyunzong relied on the skills they learned from the sect to fight against the strong, help the weak and fight for justice. royalty.

This situation has continued for a long time, until the last few years.

In fact, there is another very critical turning point in this matter, that is, 5 years ago, Ling Meng, the new suzerain of Lingyunzong, took over the entire Lingyunzong.

Even though Ling Yunzong had some resistance to the royal family before, and even had some ambitions for the entire Shengjin Dynasty, they still kept this idea deep in their hearts, at least on the surface, they were very good at it.

The people who went to Lingyunzong to collect taxes in the past have never been troubled by them, and they would even treat them with food and drink before sending them away enthusiastically.

But since Ling Meng became the new suzerain of Lingyunzong, the entire Lingyunzong has undergone earth-shaking changes.

They changed their normal routine and directly addressed the Shengjin Dynasty strongly. They regarded the imperial edicts from the royal family as fart, and even started to actively seek sex to cause trouble.

As for the cities around them, Ling Yunzong also allowed his disciples to feed on the common people, not paying for meals was just a trivial matter, and they even committed acts of burning, killing, looting and so on.

Some people reported this matter to Ling Yunzong, but no one paid attention to them at all. If those people stalked, they would even be beaten severely.

Soon, some local people thought of reporting this matter to the Imperial City. No matter how powerful the Lingyun Sect is, they are only a sect under the Shengjin Dynasty. Do they dare to go against the royal family?
It's just that they didn't expect that Ling Yunzong really dared to do it!

They directly blocked the surrounding cities, and even sent disciples to strictly guard the entrances and exits. Anyone who wanted to escape from these cities would be driven back immediately. spiritual place.

The reason why they were so panicked when they saw Zhang Mengyu and others was because both Qi Xiu and Qi Ning were wearing swords, and wearing sabers was the privilege of disciples of Lingyun Sect. Others were not qualified to carry swords in Lingyun City Dangling everywhere.

"Okay, it's really beautiful, it's as if my royal family of the Holy Jin Dynasty doesn't exist!" Qi Xiu was furious, and even the people around could feel his anger spreading.

"You are the royal family of the Holy Gold Dynasty?" The woman seemed to see hope for a moment, she knelt down on the spot, "My lord, please save our people of Lingyun City!"

"Don't worry," Qi Xiu promised, "This time we came to Lingyun City to trouble them!"

"Elder Sister," Zhang's dim eyes rolled, "Do you know how Lingyun City's daily food is provided?"

Qi Xiu looked at Zhang Mengyu curiously, why would he suddenly ask such a question?

"In the past, the people of their Lingyun Sect grew food and raised wild animals under the mountain gate to support themselves," the woman said, "but in the past few years, those farmlands have been abandoned, and our Lingyun City farmers have become the targets of their exploitation. "

"How to say?"

"They said that they bought vegetables, grains and meat from our farmers and herdsmen, but the money they gave was less than one-fifth of the market price, and they even provided them with a fixed amount of food in the name of Lingyunzong. Sales channels are nothing short of a joke!" The woman became angrier as she talked, because her family was farming.

"We're all farmers and we make a living selling what we grow, and they're pushing us to do that!"

"Then if that's the case, you might as well just stop planting."

"Of course we tried," the woman sighed, "but they brought people to force us to continue arbitrating and breeding. As long as we resisted a little, we would be beaten severely."

"Then what about your life?" Qi Xiu asked, if you follow this price, you won't be able to get back the capital, let alone supporting the whole family.

"They recruit workers from the people of our Lingyun City from within their sect. The people who go there do some hard work, but the money they get is only enough for us to live on, leaving us in a state where we can't get enough to eat but can't starve to death."

"This is simply raising people like animals!" Qi Ning heard that this Lingyun sect was misbehaving when he came to Lingyun City last time, but he was in a hurry, and he didn't understand it deeply. Just the tip of the iceberg.

"Elder Sister, is it convenient for me to take you there to have a look?" Zhang Mengyu asked.

"Of course it's convenient," the woman said, "We farmers and herdsmen all live in one area."

The woman took Zhang Mengyu and others through the bustling city, but this prosperity is only on the surface. On the edge of the city, there are stretches of fertile fields and pastures. The former farmers and herdsmen were quite rich. , but now, it has become the object of oppression at the bottom of society.

Zhang Mengyu and others walked into a village along the small houses. Only women, old people and children were left in the village. All men with a little strength were forced to go to Lingyunzong to do coolies.

Of course, there are some exceptions, but these people are all wounded, and those women and old people are bandaging their wounds and applying medicine with tears in their eyes.

"Adults, we don't have any good things here. You can try the wild vegetable soup we cooked!" The woman took a few clean bowls, and she seemed a little cautious. People in the royal family probably don't care about such things. Why don't you take a look?

Qi Xiu and the others, who were used to delicacies from mountains and seas, were indeed a little embarrassed, but they also tasted it. Although the soup couldn't compare with the delicacies in the palace, it was still extremely delicious.

"Fuck! This taste is amazing, right?" Zhang Menglong took a sip, and gulped down the whole bowl of soup, "Can you give me another bowl?"

"Of course!" The woman smiled gratifiedly. As a farmer, no one can refuse others' compliments on their crops.

"What a wonderful farmland and pasture!" Zhang Menglong sighed, because of the abundant energy, the vegetables grown in these fields did not know how much better they would make those junks from the seventh universe.

"No, it's too wasteful to feed such a good thing to those animals," Zhang Mengyu stood up, "Sister, why don't you contract all these fields to me!"

"what?"

The woman froze for a moment.

"I mean, I want all the vegetables you grow, the fish you raise in the pond, and the animal meat your herdsmen raise!" Zhang Mengyu said, "I'll give you twice the market price. "

"Aren't you kidding us?" The woman's hands trembled a little.

"Of course I'm not joking," Zhang Meng turned around and asked, "Qi Xiu, how much can this eldest sister's field sell for?"

Although Qi Xiu is an aristocrat, he has stayed in his fief for several years and has penetrated into the common people, so he still understands this.

"According to the area of ​​the field and the quality of the vegetables, the annual output value is about 200 Xuanyin."

The woman nodded, Qi Xiu's estimated price was indeed similar to the actual situation, and 200 Xuanyin was almost enough for their family's food and clothing for a year.

"This is 40000 Xuanyin!" Zhang Mengyu took out a large string of coins from his body, which was given to him by Wang Long before, which can be regarded as pocket money, "I will contract your field for 100 years. The vegetables are all mine!"

"Also!" Zhang Mengyu waved his hand, "Who is the owner of this fish pond? Tell him, I will also contract his fish pond, and that vegetable field, that pasture, I will contract for 100 years!"
