Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

After Zhang He took over one county and fifteen counties, he reformed the administrative system.

First, he named his territory Heishui County, appointed Wei Peng as the county governor, in charge of the government affairs of the county, and Ma Gan as the county lieutenant, in charge of the army.

The fifteen counties under its jurisdiction, as well as Zhaoling City, are all under the direct jurisdiction of Heishui County.

This is very different from the previous system.

In the past, each county was only under the jurisdiction of Lu Bo's Mansion. It was an independent entity compared to the county town, and the county town had no direct jurisdiction.

In addition to the management system, the biggest change is the ownership of land and resources.

All land in Heishui County belongs to Zhang He. All tenants who farm land only need to pay 30% of the land rent to Zhang He, and the remaining income is at the discretion of the tenants.

Once this policy was implemented, all tenant farmers were happy except for the sad faces of the landowners in various towns and villages.

At this time, on a high-rise building in the center of Blackwater City, Wei Peng, Ma Gan and other high-level officials gathered here.

"Sir, all the reserve teams have been incorporated into the Blackwater Army. The Blackwater Army now has a total of 2,000 people, including 268 in the foundation period."

Ma Gan was wearing a heroic armor at this time and reported to Zhang He the situation of the Blackwater Army.

In order to cope with the upcoming war, the Blackwater Army finally expanded, and during this period, the number of soldiers who broke through from the Qi training stage to the foundation building stage reached more than one hundred.

"Fugui, how is the progress with the militia?"

"We originally had 10,000 militiamen. Recently, a large number of militiamen have been organized in various places. Currently, there are about 80,000 people. The goal of organizing 100,000 militiamen should be achieved soon."

Zhang He's territory has always had a tradition of training militiamen. He trained a total of 10,000 people in the three counties before him. After long-term training, these people also have a certain degree of combat effectiveness.

However, the militiamen are distributed in various villages, mainly for self-protection.

"Huya, please have one hundred thousand weapons made as soon as possible and deliver them to the militia for use.

In addition, another 1,000 spiritual tools will be created so that every village can have one. "

Spiritual tools are different from magic weapons. Ordinary people without magic power can also use them to release the power of spells during the Qi training period.

After years of research and improvement by the Huya team, the cost of refining spiritual tools has dropped a lot, and the utilization efficiency of spiritual energy has also improved.

"No problem, the task can be completed in one month."

Huya now has a large number of weapon refiners, and the weapons used by the militia are not demanding. There are ready-made molds, and it is easy to pour molten metal liquid directly.

"Sir, can I apply for 300 more seeds of Thunder Spirit Grass for experiments?"

Huya has recently become very interested in Thunder Grass seeds, and this is the third time it has applied for Thunder Grass seeds.

Mutated Thunder Spirit Grasses have always been planted in the Zhanghe Space, and some ordinary Thunder Spirit Grasses have also been cultivated in the spiritual fields of Blackwater Town.

In addition to saving seeds, most of the harvested seeds were distributed to the Blackwater Army and militia.

Zhang He has always valued innovation and research and development. In addition to weapon refining, the team led by Hu Ya is actually equivalent to a scientific research institution.

Regarding Huya's request, Zhang He agreed without thinking about it, "I can give you 500 pills. What do you plan to do? You might as well tell your thoughts and listen."

Huya scratched his head in embarrassment, "I was just wondering if I could connect dozens or hundreds of Thunder Spirit Grass seeds together and make them explode at the same time."

"It's just like gunpowder. The explosion of the same amount of Thunder Spirit Grass seeds is a thousand times more powerful than gunpowder. If it can be freely combined like gunpowder and explode instantly, the power should be a thousand times more powerful than gunpowder."

Zhang He nodded upon hearing this, feeling that there was much potential in this direction.

Generally, monks use their spiritual consciousness to control the number of objects that can explode at the same time.

If Huya can succeed, the seeds of Thunder Spirit Grass will be equivalent to gunpowder in the world of immortality. The destructive power it can produce will definitely shock even the researcher Huya.

Moreover, he also has more powerful mutant thunder spirit grass seeds in his hand. The explosion of a mutant seed is equivalent to a foundation-building spell.

"Very good. As long as your research is successful, I will reward you with ten red-blooded spiritual fruits."

Several people present looked envious when they heard this.

The effect of the red-blooded spirit fruit on improving one's cultivation level is really great.

As senior officials of Blackwater County, most of the people at the scene had eaten the Red Blood Spirit Fruit once or twice. One Red Blood Spirit Fruit was enough to promote an early-stage Foundation Establishment person directly to the mid-stage Foundation Establishment stage.

That wonderful feeling is still unforgettable.

However, this kind of fruit also has a disadvantage, that is, the first one you eat has the best effect, and eating three or four in a row will have no effect.

After Huya's report was over, it was Meng Tiantian's turn to be in charge of alchemy.

The alchemy department is similar to the weapon refining department. In addition to daily alchemy, it is also responsible for research and development.

"Master Qi, after this period of research, we have successfully removed the ingredients in Ling sweet potato that can easily cause gas, and perfectly retained the aura and flavor of Ling sweet potato."

This was a task that Zhang He had given them before. Linling sweet potatoes had a large yield and tasted very good, but there was one shortcoming that was hard to talk about.

Especially after eating sweet potatoes, wouldn't it be a bad thing if the gas is released randomly regardless of the occasion?

Zhang He also attached great importance to this technology and immediately asked:

"Is this method complicated?"

This is something Zhang He is more concerned about. You must know that Ling sweet potato is a food crop, and Ling rice only needs to be cooked before it can be eaten.

“The method is not complicated, it only requires two more steps than drying sweet potatoes.

In addition, we also used spiritual sweet potatoes to make a kind of military ration, specially for the army of cultivators. "

As Meng Tiantian spoke, he took out a clay pot with a lump of something similar to noodles inside, which smelled very fragrant.

Zhang He felt a little familiar when he looked at it. When he saw Meng Tiantian pouring boiling water into it, he finally remembered, isn't this instant noodles?

However, he still listened quietly to Meng Tiantian's explanation. Generally speaking, it was similar to instant noodles.

While Zhang and He were consolidating their forces to prepare for the possible arrival of the demonic army, civil war still inevitably broke out in other parts of Lu State.

Many human forces often fight among themselves for inexplicable reasons, and they fight extremely hard, with countless monks dying in battle.

After Zhang He learned the news, he could guess with his toes that this was probably Shadow Demon doing something secretly.

He has arranged for the Shadow Pavilion to investigate, especially those families who took the lead in provoking trouble and the power of their families.

Let the Shadow Pavilion write down these people in a small book, and look for opportunities in the future to investigate in detail. If the shadow demon is possessed, Zhang He has no intention of letting go of these shadow demons who are causing trouble.

These shadow demons can be handed over to the Shadow Pavilion to practice assassination.
