Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes
Chapter 321. Chen’s choice
The Fan family of the Wu Kingdom first encouraged the Ji family to start a war with the Sun-Moon Alliance. Now that the war situation is unfavorable, the Fan family has lost its footing.
Fan just lost some men, and it will take some time to recover without breaking the bones.
But this has caused great harm to the Ji family. The Ji family needs to face real losses.
Two Nascent Souls in the clan went to explore the ruins of prehistoric civilization and never came back. Now only two Nascent Soul monks are left struggling to support themselves.
As for the other Ji clan members, they suffered greater losses in the war.
And the losses did not end there. After the Sun-Moon Alliance successfully occupied Chendu City, they continued to attack the Ji family's territory. They attacked the city and plundered territory along the way, with overwhelming force.
Seeing that the Ji family was in danger of being exterminated, the Ji family had no choice but to send envoys, all the way to the Sun and Moon Alliance to admit defeat and seek unity, and the other to the Chen family to ask for help from Chen Wujiu.
In a main hall of the Chen family, Chen Wujiu was sitting at the top, with two Nascent Souls sitting on the left and right respectively, and below was the powerful Jindan elder in the clan.
Everyone, the Ji family is now in danger of being exterminated. They have sent envoys to us to ask for help. Do you think we should save them or not?
Hearing this, more than a dozen Jindan monks below heard this and whispered to each other for a long time. Chen Song, the great elder of the Ji family, was the first to stand up and bow.
I am reporting to my ancestors that I believe that we should send troops to rescue the Ji family.
Nowadays, there are three pillars in the Chen Kingdom, and no one can annex the other. Only in this way can a balanced pattern be maintained.
Now we are at loggerheads with the Ji family. If the Sun and Moon Alliance is allowed to annex the Ji family, the strength of the Sun and Moon Alliance will definitely exceed ours.
I'm afraid that after Ji's demise, it will be our turn next.
When the time comes, how can we resist the Sun-Moon Alliance without the Ji family to keep us in check?
Chen Song's words expressed what many people were thinking, and many Jindan elders in the hall nodded slightly in agreement.
Previously, Chen State had three pillars, which was the most balanced and stable. If the Sun and Moon Alliance were allowed to grow stronger, the Chen family's demise would be imminent.
Even though Chen Wujiu and the Ji family had a hatred for killing their father and a hatred for the country's subjugation, in matters that affected the life and death of the entire family, they had to swallow their anger and send troops to rescue the enemy who killed their father.
Chen Wujiu glanced at the elders below,
You can see everyone's expressions of approval.
At this moment, his eyes flashed. In an inconspicuous place among the many elders, there was an 18th elder who was newly promoted this year, with a look of disapproval on his face.
Chen Ziyi, what do you think?
Chen Ziyi was suddenly called upon by his ancestor, and he was shocked. His hands trembled with fright, and the tea cup in his hand also spilled a little.
However, he quickly regained his composure, took a deep breath, and sorted out his emotions and thoughts.
For the record, ancestor, this junior does have some different ideas.
Buzz...
Everyone in the hall looked at Chen Ziyi, and at the same time there was a buzz of discussion.
“Young people just don’t know how high the sky is and how high it is.”
I remember that this eighteenth elder should be only over a hundred years old.
All of us here eat more salt than he eats spiritual rice.
My great-great-grandson happens to be about the same age as him.
…………
There were many discussions, but the most important thing was that I felt that what the great elder said was completely correct. I was disdainful that such a newcomer would have different opinions. This was a denial of everyone present.
The Great Elder Chen Song behaved very gracefully at this moment. He did not make any sarcasm and kept smiling, waiting for Chen Ziyi to express his thoughts.
Forefather Qi, I believe that if we send troops to rescue the Ji family now, we will first offend the Sun-Moon Alliance.
Moreover, this Chen Kingdom belongs to our Chen family. It does not make much sense for us to maintain the three-legged confrontation. Our Chen family's goal should be to regain the old land and restore the country.
So what if we offend the Sun-Moon Alliance? It's better than just sitting back and watching them become stronger and then annex us.
Someone in the main hall immediately refuted Chen Ziyi's point of view. As for the restoration of the country, everyone gave up hope. It would be good to survive now.
“This junior believes that today’s Sun-Moon Alliance is no longer what it used to be, and its progress towards becoming stronger cannot be stopped.
I believe you all know the news about the militia army and the puppet army that smashed the flying battleship that attracted widespread attention in the world of immortality some time ago.
As far as the junior knows, these two new things were created by the four elders of the Sun-Moon Alliance.
When Chen Ziyi talked about the four elders of the Sun-Moon Alliance, her eyes showed a bit of yearning, but she quickly restrained herself.
Speaking of this fourth elder of the Sun-Moon Alliance, he is truly an outstanding figure in the world. This junior once visited Ningjing County. Under his rule, it was completely different from other places. There were all kinds of new things, far more than just puppets and militia. Now What is revealed is just the tip of the iceberg.
Under his leadership, the Sun-Moon Alliance will surely become stronger in the future.
There is absolutely no need for us to become enemies of the Sun-Moon Alliance for the sake of a Ji clan.
On the contrary, we should immediately send troops to help the Sun-Moon Alliance and take the opportunity to annex Ji's land resources to strengthen ourselves.
Of course, this alone is not enough. The three-legged confrontation has been broken. The next step will definitely be a direct confrontation between the Sun and Moon Alliance and the Chen family.
We should seize the opportunity when the Sun-Moon Alliance is not strong enough, learn from Ningjing County, make some changes, and become strong as quickly as Ningjing County.
Chen Ziyi once visited Ningjing County and was deeply shocked by the changes that have taken place in Ningjing County.
The Sun-Moon Alliance is rising rapidly, and there is not much time left for us. We must seize the time to make changes.
Many elders in the main hall did not trust Chen Ziyi's words.
How much power can a mere Ningjing County have? Spiritual tools and puppets are just opportunistic.
Soon there will be other forces making the same thing.
We monks still put cultivation first and must not put the cart before the horse.
Junior, I sincerely ask all seniors to go to Ningjing County and take a look. Then you will understand that what I said is true.
Chen Ziyi knew that he could not convince the elders that such changes in Ningjing County had never occurred in the tens of thousands of years of the Zhou Dynasty's history. Only those who had personally inspected it would believe it.
This matter can be discussed later. I happen to be going to Ningjing County to order a batch of spiritual tools. It doesn't hurt to stop by and take a look.
In the end, it was Chen Wu Jiu who suppressed the matter temporarily.
Although the credibility of Chen Ziyi's words is unknown, some of them still moved Chen Wujiu, and he planned to go to Ningjing County to see it in person.
The next day, Chen Wujiu gathered several elders from the Chen family, dressed up like an ordinary caravan, and took a train into Ningjing County.
As a strong Nascent Soul expert, Chen Wujiu could naturally reach Ningjing County with just one escape technique, but he also knew the important role of this kind of train.
It is so convenient for transporting materials and personnel.
In addition to convenience, there are also manufacturing costs and operating costs, which are very cheap.
On this train, except for the special carriages transporting strategic materials and personnel, most of the other civilian carriages were filled with caravans coming from various places.
Some purchased raw materials from other places and sold them to Ningjing County, while others specifically purchased industrial products from Ningjing County and sold them to other places.
As soon as the train entered Ningjing County, Chen Wujiu felt completely different.
The fields here appear to be well organized and were obviously built through unified planning.
The water diversion facilities in the fields are complete, and each field has a canal flowing through it, ensuring that the harvest will not be lost in years of severe drought.
As for water diversion tools, he found that most of them were powered by zombies.
In addition, zombies are also widely used in various heavy physical tasks such as plowing fields and pulling carts.
When Chen Wujiu and others walked out of Ningjing County Railway Station, he saw the crowds of people surging around, and it looked like a prosperous scene.
A brief glance with his spiritual consciousness revealed that the small Ningjing County now has a population of at least four to five million people.
The prosperity level has almost caught up with Mingcheng, where the Sun-Moon Alliance's chief helm is located.
There are many small private workshops outside the city that produce some metal products and sell them to other places via railways.
Chen Wujiu discovered that the residents of Ningjing County were very wealthy, and almost everyone had enough to eat, including the tenant farmers outside the city, all of whom had rosy complexions and had obviously never been hungry.
Being able to keep everyone fed was a miraculous existence in the Zhou Dynasty.
Of course, Chen Wujiu was more concerned about the industrial park outside the city.
Entering the industrial park is like entering another world.
There are many tall buildings here, and some round tall buildings are still billowing smoke from the top. Chen Wujiu took a look with his spiritual consciousness and realized that these smoke-emitting places are called steel mills.
As for the inside of the steelmaking plant, there is a layer of isolation formation blocking it, and the spiritual consciousness cannot penetrate deeply. A forced breakthrough will inevitably alarm the opponent.
The rest of the train factories, spiritual tools factories, puppet factories, etc. were all equipped with formations to isolate his spiritual consciousness, making it impossible for him to explore the information inside.
In particular, several of them are more tightly defended. In addition to formation protection, there are Blackwater troops standing guard on the surface and Shadow Pavilion monks guarding them secretly.
However, from the flow of people coming in and out, the materials and goods used, and the number of finished products transported from inside, he could also infer that the scale of production here was definitely not small.
How many refiners are needed to refine so many finished products every day?
Chen Wujiu stayed in Ningjing County for three days and learned a lot.
Including Ningjing County's research institutes, the output of various factories in the industrial park, as well as Ningjing County's economic status, population composition and other information.
Now he also believes that Ningjing County will be a rapidly rising opponent and will definitely be a strong opponent in the future.
There is not much time left for the Chen family. If they cannot make changes in time, they will inevitably be annexed by the Sun and Moon Alliance in the future.
Chen Wujiu returned to the Chen family after a long journey and reconvened the elders' meeting.
Ji's 180 charges were announced in public.
Send troops to attack the Ji family from now on. I swear not to fight back until the Ji family is destroyed!
Some elders who didn't know what was going on were a little uncomfortable with the rapid change of the family leader, but Chen Wujiu's prestige in the Ji family was very high, and no one could refute his decision.
In addition, the eighteenth elder Chen Ziyi is responsible for setting up a research institute and establishing an industrial park.
This order is even more strange. Some people have not even heard of what research institutes and industrial parks are.
But Chen Wujiu doesn't care about this. If you don't understand now, you will understand it gradually in the future. If you want to know what's going on, you can learn and understand it yourself.
In any case, let’s set up the framework first. 16430/10028413
