next day
Zhu Youfu finally took care of the tail, and completed the handover with Zhan Changfeng under the witness of Huang Duge.
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
After it was over, Pyi and the stewards of Huangdu Pavilion said goodbye and left without staying too long.
A group of red-crowned cranes flew through the air and quickly disappeared from the horizon.
Zhan Changfeng also felt that it would be many years before P Yi said goodbye, or even never again. She didn't seem to be someone who wanted to stay in Zangyunjian for a long time. Maybe she left Zangyunjian this time.
Zhan Changfeng thought of Yu Sheng, who had said goodbye to her, but she hadn't heard anything about her in the past two years, and she didn't know where the girl who said she was going to the elders meeting had gone.
The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is vast. Sure enough, only the endless mysteries are the ones she will never abandon or forget.
And she has stayed too long due to various constraints.
?P Yi's method, the world that the big fat doll showed her, slightly hooked her.
At first, she focused on discovering and understanding new things before she attained the great attainment of Taoism. She would at least wait until she reached the realm of supernatural power and comprehended more principles before trying to attain Taoism.
Establishing a foothold in Zangyun Stream for Shenzhou will only cost 10% of her energy. Just as she thought that after arriving in Hengdu, she would visit the Lower Sixth Academy, meet virtuous monks, and then travel around the mountains and rivers. Revealing Yinshuang, staying with Qingfeng Mingyue, waiting for the meeting five years later, and then going through the trial of the Holy Land Sect to find a higher truth.
But in fact, she was getting more and more involved and couldn't break free, so she had to plan her way out.
It's contrary to what you want, but you can't be impatient.
Zhan Changfeng even had the thought for a moment: After I leave, I will ignore the floods and the evil spirits.
However, turning a blind eye or hearing something when she was in trouble was definitely not her intention.
One of her goals in exploring the mysteries of the universe and pursuing the truth is to stand on top of the sky and control or even create rules and order. If she violates her own intention, cannot even solve her own dilemma, and blindly escapes, what qualifications do she have? Go further.
When you close your mind, you will see your own mind, and all wandering thoughts will disappear.
Island Master Zhu suddenly felt that the people around him became clear, like the morning light shining on the new earth.
He cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhan, I have to leave too. You can take care of yourself."
Zhan Changfeng nodded slightly, "Let's go."
She watched Zhu Youfu go away and stepped into the island master's mansion. Just now, her mood fluctuated at the words "goodbye", which was absolutely impossible before.
Is it really a symbol of promotion to the supernatural realm?
The master of the pavilion said that when life and death reach supernatural powers and self-consciousness awakens, in the early stage, there will be doubts about who I am. In the middle stage, all kinds of complicated and insignificant thoughts will emerge. , the state of mind tends to the Great Perfection, and the self-consciousness is completely awakened, or the state of mind is broken, and the mind goes crazy.
Zhan Changfeng was vigilant in his heart. If he really couldn't guard against it, all his previous efforts would be wasted if he thought wrongly.
I brushed my thoughts away and got down to business in a blink of an eye. The management of the military town on the housing deed island had to be solved.
Zhan Changfeng summoned the managers of various towns in the hall. There were fifty-five in total, but there were actually forty-one. Some declined, and some simply left for other places.
The forty-one people who came here were wondering what the new island owners would do with these towns. You have to know that before Zhu Youfu left, he took away all the treasury of each city and town, and they all had empty hands.
Some of them came here specifically to see how miserable the new island owner was. They felt in their hearts that Pearl Island was finished, and whoever wanted to do it could do it.
Some want to find a way out. I heard that the new island owner is the honorary patrol envoy of the Council of Elders and is fifth on the combat power list. His future should be brilliant.
Some people think that the city they manage can still be saved, so they come to see if the new island owner has any good ideas.
Forty-one people entered the hall one after another. Within a moment of gathering, they saw the new island owner coming. She had an ordinary appearance but a peerless appearance. She was sitting on a chair, unable to see, but they felt that they were being looked down on. Be able to restrain your voice and behavior without being disrespectful.
Zhou Qianming, Liang Yihuai and other city lords of the main city and acropolis had even more complex expressions in their eyes. On the day Zhu Youfu and Zhan Changfeng handed over, they wanted to find some trouble to show off their power, but in the end, they did not dare to look directly at her.
Compared to that day, she is much gentler today, but she is also really lofty.
However, the change of ownership of Pearl Island is related to their vital interests. At this time, they cannot be silent or submissive.
Zhou Qianming stood up first and said, "Island Master, I am the city lord of Mingyang's main city. My surname is Zhou and my first name is Qianming. I wonder what the island master's plans will be for the island in the future?"
Everyone agreed and pricked up their ears.
"City Lord Zhou is half the founder of the main city of Mingyang. I have heard about your achievements from Island Lord Zhu, and they are praiseworthy."
Her voice has a cold texture, coupled with a slow and determined tone, which is uniquely noble and lazy, making people unable to help but listen. Zhou Qianming held up his hands and said, "Island Master is very complimentary."
"You don't have to be too modest. Cultivators are easy to come by in this world, but cultivators who know how to run a city are rare. Unfortunately, Pearl Island has suffered a catastrophe. Its former prosperity has been lost, and decades of hard work are about to collapse. I can understand your feelings. , that you can come to me today instead of taking over the land or leaving to say goodbye, it shows that you still have a sense of responsibility for your town, even if some of you have no hope in me and just come to see me. It’s lively.”
Some people were touched and felt the same way.
Some people were touched and felt inexplicably embarrassed.
But they all felt that the new island owner was quite humane, so they continued to listen to what she would say.
Little did I know that the next paragraph would be a bolt from the blue.
"Currently, there are only 600,000 people left on the island. Some towns are empty, urban industries are stagnant or even suspended, and the island's military defenses are empty. I have decided to close some towns, leaving only two main cities and five acropolis in Mingyang, Heyuan. One month later, I will re-recruit the management personnel of these seven cities, and two months later, the population will be relocated. If there are special circumstances, they can be reported."
"Everyone, if you want to work under me, I will give you the specific situation of these seven cities later, as well as the scope of recruitment and assessment, job salaries. In the future, urban industries will mainly take the path of planting freshwater pearls, herbs and flowers, and the prospects will definitely not be It’s better than Pearl Island before. If you are dissatisfied, please find another job.”
Zhan Changfeng finished speaking succinctly and left, before the astonishment in the hall could burst out.
Wei Zhou Qianming hurriedly caught up, "Wait a moment, Island Master, is there anything else I don't understand?"
"you say."
Zhou Qianming himself has been a city lord for more than ten years, and he is also a monk who has completed the foundation construction. However, he cannot feel arrogant in front of this man who is obviously a head shorter than him. "Island Master, I can understand your choice to close some towns." , it is understandable that you are recruiting people again, and you have even thought about the way of urban industry, which is better than most people think about it, but island owner, don’t you think that what you invest is much worse than what you can gain? Is it worth it?”
The reason she bought this island to Bai Hen was to curb the power of Marquis Jinyi, and to the Corps was to develop the island.
But in the opinion of most people, it does more harm than good.
Naturally, she couldn't say that she was looking for a place to suppress, so she said, "I have a fate with Pearl Island, but she is no longer here. It doesn't matter if I guard the land she once loved for her. Besides, I intend to develop it." It will become my regiment’s base, so it’s actually convenient in terms of people’s livelihood. Soon, I will recruit the island army again here. I heard that your cultivation level is not weak. If you don’t want to do the job in the town, you can try to join the army. "
Zhou Qianming's eyes suddenly lit up. This was what he wanted to hear most. How could the rookie honorary inspector on the combat strength list not have the Corps Army? The Corps Army was the opportunity for him to achieve new breakthroughs.
