Just when Wang Yuan was still thinking about how to tell the cold truth about "Salesman Long" to the little ghost girl whose life was already extremely miserable.

On the other side, the nine counties in Dengzhou Prefecture that had just crossed the water were all "lively".

Although there was a slight accident when the embankment burst last night, the flooded area was not satisfactory to the adults.

However, the subsequent "grain-for-land" policy still began to unfold step by step.

Especially in the other eight counties except Yunhe County, where the gap has not been closed in time so far, the people have long been mourning.

Huaiyuan County is located in the upper reaches of Yunhe County.

Many people wanted to cry when they saw the corn disappearing in the turbulent current and the little food left in their homes.

I could only take out my meager savings at home and go to the county town to buy some food to see if I could survive this difficult period.

But unexpectedly, we discovered that those grain merchants and large households who had grain in their hands wanted to exchange the grain in their hands for their flooded land.

Little did the common people know that the culprit behind the flooding of their fields was actually the same group of people as the backers behind these buyers.

We have already reached this stage, and the matter of selling land is not completely non-negotiable.

However.

"Three stones of corn per acre? Why don't you go and grab it?!"

"It's not that fast to grab!"

"Are you kidding me?"

After hearing the prices quoted by grain merchants and large households, they all couldn't help but widen their eyes and almost suspected that there was something wrong with their ears.

An acre of cultivated land that usually cost ten taels of silver was only worth three stones of corn to them!

You must know that before the floods hit the north this year, one stone of corn only cost six taels of silver. Even after the disaster, the most expensive grain prices in Dengzhou Prefecture only cost one or two taels of silver.

This is even worse than folding it in half.

Even so, the grain shop owners still uttered wild words:

"This corn is not available every day. If it runs out, there will only be wheat, corn and wheat bran in the warehouse.

Anyway, the whole Dengzhou Prefecture has the same price. Do you want to change it?

Besides, your rotten land has been soaked by floods. You think my food is expensive, but I also think your land is poor!

Poor guy, get out, get out!"

A group of farm men came to the city from Zhuangzi together and wanted to work together to find a way out. Because they were dissatisfied with the price of grain distribution, they were kicked out by the overbearing clerk.

The young man at the head looked back at the man in the grain shop who was blatantly mixing sand into the grain, his face flushed with shame and anger:

"What's our place? It's obvious that big families like you are eating people, but you still find it hard to eat us poor people!"

At this time, he happened to see the door of a restaurant nearby.

Just then, a figure wearing silk clothes, with a dark complexion and thick hands and feet walked out swaggeringly.

The person and the clothes don't match at all, and he looks a bit like a monkey.

But the restaurant owner nodded and bowed until he walked out the door. He was more respectful to him than to his own father.

He seemed to be in a good mood, and the man even threw a gold nugget as big as his thumb to the boss.

In exchange for a lot of gratitude.

"Isn't that Ma Laoliu from the neighboring village? Everyone is almost out of food. How come this idle and talented person suddenly got rich?"

Hearing this, a friend from the same village next to him interjected with deep envy:

"Second brother, I heard my cousin from the neighboring village talk about this.

Recently many people in their village have been spreading the word, but it was so bizarre that I only listened to it for fun.

I saw Ma Laoliu with my own eyes today and I believe that the rumor is probably true."

"Chen Sixi, you kid, stop talking nonsense, speak quickly, speak quickly!"

Under the urging of a group of people, Chen Sixi explained mysteriously:

"They said that there is a 'Mountain Spirit Temple' in the mountains at the junction of Huaiyuan County, Yunhe County and Ninghai Prefecture.

The Buddhas in that temple know the art of turning stones into gold, which can turn stubborn stones into gold and jade.

Some people have seen with their own eyes that there are countless gold and silver treasures hidden in the temple, and even all the Buddha statues are made of gold and jade.

If a believer worships the Buddha devoutly, he will not only be rewarded with gold and jade, but also have the opportunity to be given the [Midas Touch], and from now on, he will not worry about being rich when he eats and drinks!"

These words immediately made a group of friends feel excited.

It doesn't matter if I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but now that I saw Ma Laoliu's lavish wealth with my own eyes, everyone suddenly became wary.

What's more, their fields at home were flooded, and they were already forced to a desperate situation.

There is a huge opportunity in front of you, how can you give it up?

They consider themselves to be hard-working farmers, and they are much better than the useless guy like Ma Laoliu anyway, and they will definitely be more favored by the Buddha in the temple!

So, having made up their minds, they immediately followed Ma Laoliu quietly.

Walking out of Huaiyuan County, we walked through valleys and streams, walking from noon to evening, all the way to the "Mountain Spirit Temple" located deep in the mountains.

"Even in the palace, there aren't so many treasures, right?

It’s true that turning stones into gold and jade is true! We’re going to get rich, we’re going to get rich!”

Walking in the empty temple, their mouths barely closed.

There are walls made of white jade, paths paved with gold bricks, roofs made of emerald agate, and precious stones scattered on the ground as if they were free.

It seems that the entire temple is built with countless gold and precious jade.

Wealth and luxury are simply difficult to describe with poor words.

They were dazzled by the sight when they suddenly heard Ma Laoliu's flattering voice coming from the Buddhist hall ahead:

"Lord Buddha, do you think this is okay?"

"Well, grab it, don't move."

They quickly ran over quietly and leaned through the crack in the window to look inside the exquisite Buddhist hall.

Surrounded by thousands of ever-bright lanterns, there were at least dozens of handsome Buddha statues, regardless of gender, sitting on a golden platform with shining golden light and solemn treasures.

But in the corner of the Buddhist hall, Ma Laoliu looked a little funny now.

His hands were hung on the scale hooks and hung high by a large scale.

Butcher Zhang's family in Chenjia Village has a large scale used to weigh pigs, which is exactly the same as this one.

Ma Laoliu, who had recently thrown out a lot of gold and silver and gained a lot of weight, was hanging on it, just like the fat pigs waiting to be slaughtered in Butcher Zhang's house.

It made a group of farmers who followed him laugh.

But I can't help but wonder, is it necessary to weigh one's weight to learn magic?

Next to the weighing beam, a handsome monk, regardless of age or gender, moved the weight for a while and nodded to him with satisfaction:

"Yes, Donor Ma, you have been eating and drinking well these days, and you finally weighed one hundred and fifty kilograms.

Otherwise, how could such a good thing happen to you?"

Ma Laoliu, who was hanging on the scale, was still saying thank you:

"Thank you very much for your care, Lord Buddha. When I learn the [Midas Touch], I will never forget Lord Buddha's great kindness today!"

However.

The group of peasants hiding outside the window shuddered inexplicably when they saw the smile on the monk's face that was exactly the same as the gold and jade Buddha statues in the room.

Outside the mountains.

Woo woo woo

The Yin soldiers cleared the way, followed by the Yin wind, and four smiling paper figures carried a paper sedan and flew through the forest.

Wang Yuan, who was rushing back to Yunhe County from Shanyang City, was sitting in a sedan chair, thinking about what he should do next.

Different from the ordinary world, the basis for determining the successor to the throne in this world is not only the establishment of direct descendants, the establishment of elders, and the establishment of virtuous people, there is also an important consideration indicator.

——Fate, Qi number.

According to legend, there is a "Nine Dragon Wall" in the palace, which is the hub of the world's "Dragon Qi Dharma", which can be used to measure the world's Qi.

Because nine is the extreme number of yang, and five is in the middle.

Moreover, the earth has nine states and the sky has nine fields, so the system of the "Nine Five" is the system of the emperor.

Once the dynasty's dragon energy is not enough to light up the five divine dragons on the Nine Dragons Wall, even if the emperor's "Ziwei is destined to die", it will no longer be able to support the emperor's status.

When the artifact of Sheji is lost, the dragons in the world will compete for it.

Therefore, the amount of dragon energy is closely related to the ownership of the throne.

Why do they say that King Zhou Wenrui of Jing was an ordinary prince who came to Dabao by chance?
