Chapter 605 Teasing, Guidance, Tea Garden Expansion, Loss of Members

"Four two kings with two belts!" Zhao Danqing proudly threw out the last six cards in his hand.

Jiang Xingchen's face suddenly dropped three black lines. In his previous life, Mr. Zhao's sketch, he heard of such a card game, but he didn't expect that he would meet it today.

The old man and the second brother were also stunned, stared at Zhao Danqing and blinked, then pointed at Zhao Danqing and burst into laughter: "Four two kings come out, you Sabi..."

Zhao Danqing curled his lips, looked disdainful and said lightly: "Why are you laughing? Old guy, hurry up and eat the cards, you can still laugh... I really don't know where you got so much confidence before, don't you have a set of bombs in your hand? Cut, what's wrong with four two kings? I'll blow it a few more times, do you pay more money? This is how my buddy is, you won't beat you without bombs, I'll piss you to death... I'll give you back to me, you'll piss!"

As he said that, Zhao Danqing pinched his waist with both hands, raised his head and laughed, his whole body trembling... He was so proud that he ate fruit!

Jiang Xingchen's eyes twitched straight. This guy is not that he can't leave, but that he is pretending to behave, absolutely pretending to behave!

"Fuck!" The old man and the second brother couldn't help but swear, their faces turned black, and they rolled up their arms and sleeves and wanted to do it.

"You can't afford to lose, you know you're like this! Such an advanced game as Doudizhu is really not suitable for you..." Zhao Danqing didn't care at all, and looked sarcastic.

The old man made a move and shouted, "Who can't afford to lose? My ancestors can lose as soon as I can play. Isn't it just a card..."

He grabbed a few poker cards, but the old man didn't put them in his mouth, but turned his head to look at Jiang Xingchen and asked, "Boy, do you have no second deck of cards?"

Jiang Xingchen looked at the old man silently, smiled, took out a small box from his arms, gently placed it on the table, and then turned around silently.

"Puff!" Zhao Danqing and his second brother burst into laughter and covered their stomachs and lay on the table.

The old man was so happy to see Jiang Xingchen laughing. He just said he didn't have to eat anymore, but he didn't expect that he would take out another pair.

The old man froze on his face with a smile, then he became angry and rushed out: "Jiang Xingchen. I'm fighting with you..."

"That's just a box!" Jiang Xingchen said lightly when he rushed over.

"What?" The old man braked suddenly and his expression changed again: "Hahahaha, boy, you are still worthy of it, I will just say it. You can't look at me..."

"It's really here. I didn't have time to put it in the box!" Before the old man finished speaking, Jiang Xingchen turned around and placed a stack of brand new playing cards on the box!

The old man froze in place, his smile kept hanging on his face, and his mouth kept laughing like "hehe, hehe".

Zhao Danqing and his second brother stopped laughing and said to themselves: "This is too damaged. You can whip the corpse after repairing the knife..."

Jiang Xingchen smiled slightly at the three of them. He said, "You continue playing, and then quietly left the room."

After a long time, a shrill roar came from the room: "Little Wang Badan, I'm not finished with you! And you, Boy Zhao..."

Jiang Xingchen didn't know if the old man had played cards that day, so he asked Zhao Danqing and his second brother later, but they were all kept their mouths tight and never mentioned this. However, Jiang Xingchen did not regret his way of leaving at that time. It was the most unwise to stay and face the old man with anger that was overwhelmed.

In the days that followed, you could hear the old man shouting almost every day, and fighting a landlord was even more irritating than playing mahjong.

The game of Landlord Fighting is also popular in the Bauhinia and Iron Sword Mercenary Group. Now the territory is not busy, and it is the most leisurely time. You can hear the sound of landlords calling them to steal landlords from the two major mercenary groups every day.

Even the actors of Bauhinia Entertainment like to play a few games while practicing.

However, Jiang Xingchen told them that this game is limited to internal and that playing cards will be of great use in the future and cannot be spread out. Therefore, this game has not been made public.

Compared with the leisure here in Xingchenling, the outside world is busy. Most of the empire is affected by disasters, and post-disaster reconstruction is the primary task. You can’t watch a large number of civilians homeless.

The major lords invested huge amounts of manpower, material resources and financial resources, and the young lords also reluctantly paid to rebuild houses for the civilians under their jurisdiction.

It is also not easy for those territories that have not been affected. Now, spring plowing is just now, and it is the busiest time. You have to transport a large amount of materials to the affected territories. You can imagine how busy it is.

The most tiring one is the group of people from the Empire Power Center. Almost most of the officials were sent out to help the affected territories. Emperor Qiankun was so busy that he slept less than two months a day. It took a whole day to review letters from various territories.

If it's just physical fatigue, it's fine, but the key is fatigue. For so many days before and after this disaster, the Emperor was always in anxiety.

Most of the territory cannot be cultivated and faces a situation where there is no harvest. Even if Qi Yue takes these large grain-producing territories, the grain production of food will be reduced by half this year, which is not enough to eat at all.

In addition, the hostile eight kingdoms were also ready to move. Several small-scale conflicts occurred in the Second Legion, Third Legion and Fifth Legion. If they hadn't used grenades to shock the other party without remembering the losses, the empire would really not be able to withstand the war, because the logistics supply could not keep up.

Now, although they scared the other party, the major legions did not dare to act rashly, for fear that the other party would come over... For this reason, Emperor Qiankun also sent an envoy to the Orc Alliance, hoping that they would relax their suppression of the orcs of Xuanyuan Tianzong and the other two clans, in order to add some pressure to the eight kingdoms.

However, the relationship between the Qiankun Empire and the Orc Alliance is far inferior to that before. The Golden Lion did not agree to the Qiankun Empire's request. I relaxed the suppression. What if the other party did not put pressure on the eight kingdoms and took the opportunity to advance to the grassland?

The Golden Lion refused to agree, and Emperor Qiankun could only do anything. Fortunately, the eight kingdoms were a little scared at the way the Qiankun Empire used grenades in large quantities. I wondered how many grenade reserves the Qiankun Empire had, so I didn't dare to attack...

Before we knew it, it was mid-May and the Xingchen Leader became more and more pure. Although the new town is not big, it has dozens of square miles, and the number of tourists with thousands of people every day is really small.

Of course, Duan’s family, which started to build peripheral underground projects and tens of thousands of acres of arable land, were still very busy.

After a few days of rest, Jiang Xingchen has become busy these days. Xianning has made a second piano, and he has been guiding Zhang Di these days.

As a musical instrument genius, Zhang Di has always been obsessed with piano, but he knew that there was only one piano, which was used by Jiang Xingchen, so he did not dare to make requests to Jiang Xingchen.

Now that he saw the second piano being made, Jiang Xingchen handed over to him to play it step by step, Zhang Di was so excited that he was so grateful to Jiang Xingchen.

After learning that Zhang Di had obtained the qualification to play piano, his sister Zhang Xue burst into tears happily. The second person who played the King of Musical Instruments after starring, her brother's future will be extremely bright...

I have to say that Zhang Di is indeed very talented. Jiang Xingchen only needs to teach him twice a day and he can basically remember it. The rest is all calculated by himself.

Jiang Xingchen was very satisfied with Zhang Di's learning so quickly, so he didn't need to spend too long on Zhang Di. The expansion of the tea garden can also begin.

The hills were reclaimed, pruned, cut branches, and instilled vitality. The tea garden was expanded three times to reach forty acres. It was already May 20th.

At first, Jiang Xingchen was worried that if the area of ​​the tea garden expanded, his gathering of vitality would not be able to take care of it. But later he found that after the temperature-controlled pressure array, the effect of gathering of vitality was greatly improved, and small batches were wrapped around the roots of the tea tree and would not dissipate at all.

Jiang Xingchen, who was relieved, moved the ant nest here again and left it to Du Rushan to take care of it.

Originally, Jiang Xingchen planned to guide Zhang Di for a few more days and let him practice by himself. He was going to go to the Curse Land to see it. The development there has been several months, and he just learned about the situation from Han Xiaowu's letter.

But at this moment, Sun Sanqiang came back and brought bad news.

May should be the time when Xingchen Teahouse pays membership fees, but this time many members withdraw. Now there are only 30 members left in Hongyuan City, and Qi Yue led the same number of members. There are fifty people in the imperial capital, and nearly 70% of the personnel were lost in one go.

"At first, I thought there were new competitors. Later, I went to visit several people in person to find out that it was because of this flood that many families and merchants' businesses shrunk, so they had to make such a choice... Brother, what do you think should be done?" Sun Sanqiang asked.

Jiang Xingchen couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. He had just expanded the tea garden, and the teahouse of the big tea consumer lost 70% of its members. It's really memorable!

After lowering his head and thinking about it, Jiang Xingchen said to Sun Sanqiang: "Are there still dozens of people? Keep driving. Even if there are thirty people, there are three million a year, so you won't lose money!"

"Well! I think so too. The flood is only temporary after all! After all, it will recover in a year or two, and the rich people will come. It would be a pity to close the door like this!"

Sun Sanqiang was just talking, Grandpa Fu came. When he saw Sun Sanqiang, his eyes immediately shiny and pulled him: "Xiaoqiang, you are back just right. Have you just collected the membership fee? Hurry up and give it to me!"

"Don't call me Xiaoqiang, Brother Jiang said that it was a kind of insect!" Sun Sanqiang murmured, shook his head and said to Grandpa Fu: "Apart from the expenses of the three teahouses, I can only pay seven million this year!"

"Why is it so small? Shouldn't it be more than 20 million?" Grandpa Fu frowned.
