nTranslator: 549690339

n“Naturally, we can’t trust all the information we gather. However, with a little brown soil, they should be able to grow a lot of food.”

n“Otherwise, the Chen family wouldn’t have so much food.’The Qi Clan’s First Elder said.

n“I’m going to pour it out, I’m going to pour it out.” Qi Family Head nodded.” Talk to the Chen Family and see how we can buy the brown soil.””

n“Understood.”

nThe Qi Clan’s Great Elder nodded. Just as he was about to leave, a guard suddenly came to report,” Reporting to the Clan Head. Great Eider, the Chen Clan Head wishes to see you.””

n“Oh? Just as she was thinking about him, he came. He really said that Yang Chen had arrived.”Patriarch Qi smiled and then looked at the guard.” Go, bring Patriarch Chen to the reception hall. We’ll be there immediately.””

n“Let’s go, First Elder.”

nIn the Qi family’s reception hall, Yang Chen held a teacup and tasted the Qi family’s tea.

n“Hahaha, the Chen Clan Leader has come from afar. It’s really an honor for our Qi Clan.”Master Qi smiled and cupped his hands as he entered the reception hall.

nWhen Chen Yang saw Master Qi enter, he also stood up and cupped his hands.”

nI came without informing you. I hope Master Qi can forgive me.””

n“You’re welcome.” Patriarch Qi sat on the main seat and then spread out his right hand.” Patriarch Chen, please sit.””

n“Chief Chen, may I know why you have come to the Qi family?”Master Qi asked.

n“Naturally, I’m here to help the Qi family solve their problems.”Yang Chen smiled and looked at Master Qi.” Master Qi, I don’t think 1 need to tell you about the difficulties that the Qi family is facing.””

nWhen Patriarch Qi saw this, his pupils constricted. Then, he laughed out loud.” Haha, Patriarch Chen is so happy. In that case, 1 won’t hide it anymore.”

n“I want the Chen family’s brown soil. I’ll take any amount of spirit stones.”

n“Qi Family Head is really rich and overbearing. However, this brown soil cannot be sold to the Qi Family.”Yang Chen shook his head.

nHearing this, Master Qi frowned and said with an unfriendly expression,”Is the Chen Clan Leader here to make fun of my Qi Clan?”

n“Master Qi, don’t be angry.” Yang Chen smiled as he picked up his teacup and took a sip.” Let me ask Master Qi, what do you want this brown soil for?”

n“Needless to say, it’s naturally to grow food. Wasn’t food the most precious thing now?”Master Qi said without hesitation.

n“In that case, why don’t you buy food directly?”Yang Chen smiled.

n“Buy food directly?” The Qi Clan Leader stared at Yang Chen.” Clan Leader Chen is willing to sell food to the Qi Clan?”

n“Of course. Otherwise, why would I ask you to come here?”

nHearing Yang Chen’s words, Qi Clan Leader pondered for a moment.” Clan Leader Chen, what are the conditions?”

n“The condition is that the Qi family has to rent all the land in Qi City to me. The rent is a year’s worth of food for the people of Qi City. The standard is two catties per person per day.”

n“At the same time, when the clan purchases food from the Chen family, we will reduce the price by 20%.”Yang Chen told Master Qi the strategy he had long thought of.

n“You want us to use spirit stones to buy food?”Qi Family Head was keenly aware of the blind spot.

n“Of course.”

nChen Yang picked up his tea again and took a sip.” Patriarch Qi, in this year, only spirit stones can buy food.”

n“If you don’t believe me, you can go to the Zhou Trading Company and the other large trading companies to take a look. Although they say that you can use the Great Qian Gold to buy it, when you really go to buy it, they will directly tell you that they are out of stock.”

nQi Family Head was silent. A few months ago, Qi Family Head had visited the Zhou Trading Company. Unfortunately, at that time, the Zhou Trading Company had already begun to use spirit stones to purchase food.

nNow that so much time had passed, the grain price had probably risen again.

nCompared to the trading firm, Yang Chen’s offer was already very generous. Not to mention, the Chen family would also provide a year’s worth of food.

nAt the thought of this, Patriarch Qi nodded slightly.” Alright, I agree to Patriarch Chen’s request.”

n“Then, let’s have a pleasant cooperation.” Yang Chen stood up and cupped his hands at the head of the Qi family.

n“Oh right, there’s one more thing. 1 want to rent the Qi family’s clansmen and generals to help me guard the farmland business.”

n“Of course, my Chen family will also send people over, but after all, it’s difficult to support them alone. In this regard, 1 hope that the Qi family head can help my Chen family.”

n“Then what is the rental price?” Master Qi revealed a profiteer smile.

n“Spirit stones, of course.” Yang Chen stretched out a finger.” A Qi Cultivating Stage martial artist, one spirit stone a year.”

nAfter Master Qi heard Yang Chen’s bid, the smile on his face grew wider.” How many people does Master Chen need?”

n“A hundred Qi Refinement Realm martial artists will do.” Yang Chen thought for a moment. If he was just guarding the farmland, loo Spiritual Stones would be enough.

nAfter all, although the Qi family had many farmlands, they were all in the same place, so it was more convenient to manage them.

nAs for the patrol realm, there were ordinary people in Qi City. As long as they paid a little food, these ordinary people could completely become guards.

nIt was the same for the long-term farmers. Anyway, the one-year period had passed, and the Chen family no longer needed to hide.

nMoreover, even if he hid it, Chen Cheng had never lacked food, and the other aristocratic families would find out.

n“Since that’s the case, why did the Chen Clan Leader come over to hand over the land?”Master Qi asked again.

n“In ten days, the elders of my Chen family will come here to take over.”

nAfter discussing the contract, Yang Chen left the Chen family and continued to fly to the other cities.

nThe Chen Family’s target this time was not just Qi City. Other than Liu City, which had been destroyed by the demon tide in Nanyang County, the rest of the ninth-rank aristocratic families were among Chen Yang’s targets.

nThese ninth-rank aristocratic families had a total of 20 million mu of farmland.

nIf he swallowed all of them, it would be an exaggeration to say that he could supply the entire Jiang Prefecture with 700 catties of rice per mu. However, it was still possible to affect half of the Jiang Prefecture.

nIf they were given a limited amount of food to ensure their survival and not lower the grade of their forces, they could also provide food for the entire Jiang Prefecture.

nIn just two days, Yang Chen had made a deal with all the ninth-rank families in Nanyang County.

nAfter dealing with the farming trade, Yang Chen returned to the Chen family and sent out all the elders in the family. Each elder was responsible for the farming of a city.

nAs for Chen Yang and Chen Xuan, they stayed in Chen City and waited for the Song family’s reaction.

nYang Chen also knew that the news of the Chen family having food had already been placed on the table of the Song family head.

nMoreover, Yang Chen had spread the news of Chen Cheng having food to the Song family. He planned to use the same method as the Song family to deal with the Chen family.

n“Master, when do you think the Song family will be desperate?”In the meeting hall, Chen Xuan teased.

n“I reckon that the Song family will only jump out of desperation in a year. After all, my master is still a big deterrent to the Song family.”

n“And even if the Song family is really anxious, they probably won’t attack me. Instead, they’ll send their ancestor to steal our so-called brown soil.”Yang Chen smiled.

n“Then how should we deal with it?” Chen Xuan asked.”

n“How should we deal with it?” Chen Yang’s gaze shifted to the direction of the Beast Control Sect.” At this time, 1’11 need my good friend Wang Shuo..”
