Supernatural: I have a small world

After completing the transformation of Qinghu Lake and the surrounding areas according to his initial expectations, Sun Cheng found that a lot of the seawater he had stored in the inner world had been used up.

In addition, this kind of environmental modification would take a lot of time even with his current cultivation.

Sun Cheng simply gave up for the time being, and went all out to transform several other important water sources in the west.

Zheshen first went to Nanshan, checked the formation, and made sure that the formation was continuing to operate stably.

Although Nanshan's heaven and earth aura is still thin, it is growing steadily.

After confirming that the formation was correct, Sun Cheng left Nanshan and flew to Xining Prefecture.

Because Nanshan is not far from Xining Prefecture, he arrived in the city of Xining Prefecture not long after.

After more than ten years, Sun Cheng came to Xining Prefecture again, and Sun Cheng really felt like he had come to a big city in the Central Plains.

Although located on a plateau with a relatively high altitude, the geographical environment is not too good.

However, in the past 20 years, with Sun Cheng's continuous investment, the city has become a pearl in the Northwest.

Because there are still some grasslands in the west, many ethnic minorities who have lived in the west for generations have the habit of grazing.

Therefore, the west is still the most important source of fur and wool in the Xia Kingdom, and even a lot of live sheep, horses, and cattle are sold from here to the Central Plains of the Xia Kingdom every year.

In the past many years, Jincheng, the capital of Gansu Province, which is not far from Xining Prefecture, has served as the gateway for exchanges between the west and the Central Plains.

At the same time, a large amount of fur, wool, and even beef, mutton, and horses were sold to the Central Plains through Jincheng.

Many tribes in the west also regularly go to Jincheng to purchase tea bricks, salt and even some porcelain, as well as other daily necessities.

However, with the rise of Xining Prefecture, these activities have now been transferred to Xining Prefecture.

In Xining Prefecture, the scale of the city is larger than some big cities in the Central Plains, and it just lacks a bit of historical heritage.

Sun Cheng was not in a hurry to see Zhu Qi and the others, but walked around the city with great interest.

In the past 20 years or so, the reason why this desolate northwestern town was able to rise up is naturally needless to say his credit...

From more than 20 years ago, it was determined to develop in the Northwest.

Sun Cheng began to invest continuously in the Northwest, and at the beginning there were only tens of thousands of taels of silver dollars per year.

After the war between Fusang and Tsarist Russia broke out, the investment has reached 20 yuan per year.

With the advent of the Republic of China, Sun Cheng's annual investment in the Northwest region has skyrocketed to more than 50 million.

It is conservatively estimated that in the past 20 years or so, his accumulated investment in the northwest region alone has exceeded 300 million taels of silver.

This amount of money, even if you look at the eastern coastal areas, is a huge sum of money.

Throwing it into the desolate west, the natural effect can only be described as immediate.

In this huge investment of more than 1000 million taels, Xining Prefecture has consumed at least [-]% of the funds.

It is no exaggeration to say that this current Northwest Pearl was built by Sun Cheng with money.

The population in the city of Xining Prefecture is increasing. Two years ago, Zhu Qi mentioned that the permanent population here has exceeded 50.

And Sun Cheng feels that after two years, this number may have broken through to 60.

The city is still the same as before, slightly messy.

However, there are many more differences than before, the most obvious being the various factories that can be seen from time to time.

Textile factory, fur factory, glass factory, 2.9 fruit canning factory, steel factory, arsenal and more!

All kinds of factories are now blooming everywhere in Xining Prefecture.

Most of them belong to the property of Sun Cheng's family.

However, there are also quite a few, which were established in the Northwest by businessmen who saw business opportunities.

It can be said that it is precisely because of these factories that the disaster victims who fled from the Central Plains and came to the Northwest in the past 20 years can have enough food.

After all, the European history of the past few hundred years has already proved one thing.

Only industry can absorb and feed more people.

Chapter 471: Goodbye, Zhang Sanlian (Full Order) Third Change

However, Xining Prefecture is not a holy place on earth.

Here, like Xia Guo, and other cities in the world in this era, there are also all kinds of darkness.

Walking on the streets of Xining Prefecture, Sun Cheng listened to the exchange of various slang and dialects from all over the world, and looked at the passers-by on the road. Although many of them had ugly faces, they still had a smile called happiness on their faces. .

His heart is still very heavy.

On the street, there are beggars begging.

Quite a few of them spoke with a Sichuan-Shaanxi accent and looked very sturdy at first glance, Brother Pao, who insisted on taking advantage of the hawkers on the street.

From time to time, it can be seen that although the patrolling soldiers are wearing military uniforms, they are not even walking neatly, but they are all showing off their might.

Even on the streets, many foreigners can be seen.

"It seems that in the past ten years since I left, this side has slacked off a lot."

Sun Cheng didn't mean to blame Zhu Qi and the others. After all, they were limited by this era, and most of them had no professional education. Being able to do this was considered pretty good.

Moreover, 11 they cannot directly interfere with Xining Prefecture.

Even the warlords who controlled Qing Province, part of Gan Province and the border areas were selected and supported by Zhu Qi.

It is inevitable that some of them will no longer be quiet and obedient after they feel that they have soldiers and guns in their hands.

Walking on the street, Sun Cheng is carefully observing the shortcomings of the city, and will make liquidation and changes in the future.

While walking on the street, I suddenly came to an intersection without knowing it.

There, at this time, there was an old man with white beard and hair, supporting a table, sitting there as if he was going to tell someone's fortune.

Sun Cheng hadn't been able to see the old man at first, but was just passing by, and suddenly heard the old man speak.

"The Taoist priest is really precious. I haven't seen him for more than ten years, but his voice and appearance have not changed!"

"Ok?"

Sun Cheng heard the sound, and then looked at the old man carefully.

Seeing that he was full of stagnation at this moment, there were even wisps of death between his brows.

The old man looks like he should be a hundred years old, and his face is covered with age spots.

He was wearing a pair of sunglasses, and seeing Sun Cheng looking towards him, he grinned at him, revealing a mouth that was missing most of its teeth.

It wasn't until this moment that he noticed that the owner of this old face had met him at the ruins of Heishui City more than ten years ago.

Then we went to the fake tomb of the Xixia Princess Zhang Sanlian, the legendary touch gold captain.

"So it's Mr. Zhang, long time no see, but he's still in good health!"

It was rare to see acquaintances, and Sun Cheng was also in a good mood.

Zhang Sanlian smiled and waved his hands, his hands were skinny like ghost claws.

"Not good, not good, if my old man still has some obsessions, I'm afraid it's gone now."

Sun Cheng only looked at his face, and knew what Zhang Sanlianzi meant.

He is now buried up to his neck in loess, and he may report to the underworld someday in his sleep.

But Sun Cheng also guessed because of this, the old man must have calculated something, so he came here to wait.

Nodding with a smile, Sun Cheng said, "Forget it, you and I are also destined."

"During all these years of retreat, I heard that old man, you went to Shangxiang to look for me."

"Since I saw you today, it means that your luck is not exhausted."

"Come on, old man, don't you invite me to sit at your residence?"

"hey-hey!"

Zhang Sanlianzi got what he wanted, knowing that half of what he asked for had already been achieved.

He immediately shouted: "Jiuyi, come here!"

As soon as the words fell, Sun Cheng saw a child squatting at the base of the wall not far away, got up and ran over.

"Father, you call me."

The child was a boy, and he didn't look very old, only in his teens.

But he should be a good boy, and his muscles and bones look stronger than children of the same age.

Zhang Sanlianzi smiled and introduced to Sun Cheng: "Master Daoist, this is my son Zhang Jiuyi."

"Jiuyi, come and meet the Taoist priest."

The ten-year-old boy looked Sun Cheng up and down carefully, and then he clasped his fists in salute: "Zhang Jiuyi, I have met the Taoist priest."

Sun Cheng raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that the three chains were really good.

Nearly a hundred years old, can still have children.

Seeing that this piece of nine clothes is full of heaven, I know that I am a blessed person.

He smiled and nodded at the moment: "It's a lucky one, but..."

Before Sun Cheng finished speaking, he saw a cloud of blackness in Zhang Jiuyi's eyebrows.

I think it must have been not so smooth when I was born. There was a certain death, but it was broken by a secret method.

It's just that the people who break the law are not good enough, leaving some disasters behind.

Seeing that he was talking halfway, Zhang Sanlianzi knew that Sun Cheng, a master of Taoism, must have seen something.

Immediately ordered his son Zhang Jiuyi to pack up all the things.

Then, hunchbacked, he led Sun Cheng to an alley not far away, and finally stopped in front of a courtyard with two entrances deep in the alley.

He went forward and knocked on the door a few times, and after a while, a woman who still had a charm opened the door.

Seeing Zhang San's chain, the woman hurriedly stepped forward to help her, "Master, you are back."

When she saw Sun Cheng, she couldn't help being taken aback. After all, it was the first time she saw him and she didn't know his identity.

Sun Cheng only glanced at her, and saw a red thread tied to Zhang San's body.

Immediately understood, this beautiful woman who looked at most 40 to [-] years old was Zhang Sanlianzi's wife.

Zhang Sanlian patted her hand and introduced her: "Hongyun, this is the Taoist master I mentioned to you."

The woman he called Hongyun suddenly realized, and a look of joy appeared on her face.

She quickly greeted Sun Cheng, "I have met the Taoist priest before."

Although Sun Cheng felt that this pair of young and old was a bit inappropriate, he also knew that in this ridiculous age, even more absurd things were rare.

At the moment, he just nodded slightly: "Madam, there is no need to be polite, let's go in and talk about it."

"Okay, please sir."

The three of them entered the yard, and not long after, Zhang Jiuyi, who had a thick head and a thick head, also came back carrying Zhang San's chain fortune-telling equipment.

He also entered the living room, and stood quietly aside after seeing the ceremony.

Seeing that he was well educated, Sun Cheng secretly nodded in his heart.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw that Zhang San's three gold-touching charms, which never left his chain, were all gone.

Immediately asked: "Old man, are your three apprentices all graduated from the teacher now?"

"Yes!"

Zhang Sanlian's skinny right hand subconsciously touched the direction of his chest.

In the past, those three gold-touching charms were hung on his body.
