In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Inside the room where the Luo Family Patriarch resided.
At this moment, Luo Ping was sitting quietly in the main seat, silently flipping through a report in his hands.
In front of him, Hu Min stood in silence.
“How is the growth of the crops outside Qingshi Town?”
After looking through the report for quite some time.
Luo Ping then asked Hu Min in a low voice.
“Family Head, the crops growing in the fields outside Qingshi Town are doing extremely well.
“In about half a month at most, the first harvest can take place.
“After the first harvest, our Luo Family’s food reserves will see a substantial increase.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Ping nodded silently before asking, “How is the construction of the outer city of Qingshi Town coming along?”
After pondering for a moment, Hu Min replied in a low voice, “Family Head, ever since those monks disappeared and the Buddhist followers gradually faded away, the construction of the outer city of Qingshi Town has been progressing significantly faster. Perhaps in less than half a year, the construction of the outer city can be completely finished…”
Upon hearing this, Luo Ping nodded again.
Moreover, due to his son, Luo Chuan, being engrossed in the path of formation magic,
Nowadays, many matters
No longer require his handling.
Most situations are now being managed by this lad, Hu Min.
Simultaneously, it allowed Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, to recognize Hu Min’s capabilities.
Hu Min had both ability and loyalty.
If this loyal hound wished to climb higher, to stand above countless others,
Then Luo Ping would grant his wish.
“As the territories under the Luo Family’s command gradually increase, and the number of cities under our control grows, it’s becoming nearly impossible for me alone to manage everything.”
“Therefore, I’ve been thinking of emulating the system of the Da Feng Dynasty.”
“And this Qingshi Town…”
“No, to be more accurate now, it should be called Qingshi County.”
“The position of Magistrate of Qingshi County…”
“Would you be willing to take it?”
Upon hearing this, Hu Min was initially stunned, then his face showed a deep shock.
He hadn’t expected
That Luo Ping would make such a decision.
“What? You’re unwilling?”
From the main seat, Luo Ping’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Thunder and rain were both acts of grace from the sovereign.
So, in reality, Hu Min had no better choice than to accept.
“I, I am willing.”
“Thank you, Family Head…”
Once Hu Min regained his composure, he immediately knelt down with his head pressed to the floor.
His eyes were slightly red.
From the beginning, when he blocked Luo Chuan’s path and chose to follow him,
Hu Min had this day in mind.
If the Hu Family didn’t want him,
He would cling tightly to the Luo Family’s coattails and prove his worth in front of them,
To let his father, Hu Da, realize
That his decision was wrong.
He had made a mistake.
And now, Hu Min had finally gotten what he wanted.
He had risen to stand above countless heads.
Even the Hu Family where he had come from,
In the face of Hu Min’s forthcoming status, had to bow down humbly.
…
Noon time.
A fierce sun hung high in the sky.
At this time, the outdoor temperature was unbearably hot.
If you stepped outside onto the streets,
You would clearly feel waves of intense heat washing over you.
Even more so, when your skin came into contact with these waves of heat,
You would feel a pricking sensation.
However, it was somewhat different inside the Luo Family’s territory.
With the existence of Cooling Charms, no matter what time it was, the Luo Family always maintained the most comfortable temperature.
…
Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
In the yard where the Ancestor of the Luo Family resided.
Now, beneath a stone pavilion,
Fu Qiu, Deputy Sect Master of the Spirit Medicine Sect of Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect, sat quite comfortably.
Sipping tea,
He enjoyed closing his eyes leisurely.
The temperature was too comfortable.
This environment also made it hard not to indulge.
Even the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect where Fu Qiu came from wasn’t as comfortable as the Luo Family Clan Land.
“Luo Brother, so what’s the matter you called me for this time?”
After finishing the cup of cool tea in his hand,
Fu Qiu finally raised his head and asked Luo Changfeng in a low voice.
“I have an idea…”
Luo Changfeng murmured softly.
“An idea?” Fu Qiu looked at Luo Changfeng with some confusion, asking softly, “What idea?”
“Fu Brother, since we lack spiritual medicine for alchemy, why not grow our own spiritual herbs?
“This way, we can be self-sufficient.
“And if we have a surplus, we could even sell them. Wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?”
…
Luo Changfeng’s words slowly echoed in the courtyard.
After listening to this,
Fu Qiu sighed softly and shook his head saying, “Luo Brother, your idea is indeed nice, but this task of growing Spiritual Roots is not any simple matter…”
Luo Changfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, asking in a low voice, “I’d like to hear more about it.”
After contemplating for a moment, Fu Qiu continued, “The reason why spiritual medicine is referred to as ‘spiritual’ is mainly because it contains the spiritual power of heaven and earth. Every breath of spiritual medicine is imbued with the ultimate principles of the cosmos…”
