The drizzle is continuous, nourishing the dry earth.
The originally dry weeds were soon wetted by the rain and fell down.
Chen An woke up from his sleep.
When he looked up out the window, he found that it was already very bright.
Now that I am in the room, I can hear the voices of neighbors outside from time to time.
All signs indicate that it is getting late.
Chen An looked at his wife and daughter who were still sleeping soundly beside him, and reached out to wipe the drool from the corners of their mouths.
Then, he spread his spiritual consciousness for a while.
I sensed that the concubines in the other two rooms were still asleep, sleeping very deeply.
"It seems that they worked too late last night and are so tired that they can't even get up now."
"You have to exercise some control in the future."
Thinking about it, Chen An got dressed and got out of bed, going to the kitchen to make breakfast for the first time in a long time.
Keep it simple.
Boil a few eggs.
Fry a few fried dough sticks.
Grind a few bowls of soy milk.
Finally, cook a small pot of vegetable porridge, and that's basically it.
"Everyone in Green Willow Lane!"
"Come out quickly!"
"Elder of the Bamboo Leaf Gang Law Enforcement Hall, Zhao Qingshan, Elder Zhao, there is something important to announce to everyone!"
Chen An was about to push the door open when a deafening shout suddenly came from outside.
The voice was very familiar. It sounded like the deacon of the Bamboo Leaf Gang who came to call everyone to the battlefield yesterday.
"Wow...wow...wow!"
Seeing that her daughter Chen Yue was woken up, she sat up from the bed and cried loudly.
Song Huaying immediately hugged her, touching her head tenderly and comforting her: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyue, mother is here."
"Ying'er, my husband, go out and have a look."
"Husband, be careful."
"Um."
As he spoke, Chen An gave his crying daughter a sleep aid, letting her fall asleep sweetly, and then pushed the door open and left the room.
When they came to the hall, they saw Wen Zhiyun and Gu Xinyue also coming out. They were obviously awakened by the shouting just now.
"Yue'er, go to the kitchen and make some breakfast."
"Yun'er, come with me to go out and take a look."
Chen An looked at Wen Zhiyun and Gu Xinyue and said.
Gu Xinyue was very obedient. She said "ok" and walked to the kitchen. She did not follow him out because she was curious about what was going on outside.
Wen Zhiyun didn't say anything and silently followed Chen An out to see what was going on outside.
When the two came outside, residents were already standing on both sides of the alley.
In the middle of the alley, there were several Bamboo Leaf Gang monks standing.
Except for one extra old man, the others were all familiar faces from the Bamboo Leaf Gang who had been here yesterday.
"That old man is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Bamboo Leaf Gang. He is a foundation-building expert, and his strength ranks among the top five in the Bamboo Leaf Gang."
Wen Zhiyun leaned into Chen An's ear and whispered this information to him.
Chen An nodded and said nothing.
Seeing that most of the residents in Green Willow Lane had come out, the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Zhuye Gang, Elder Zhao, soon spoke in a rich voice:
"Everyone, the war between the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Villa is getting more and more intense now. I hope that everyone can lend a helping hand to the Bamboo Leaf Gang and join us on the battlefield to charge and kill the enemy and defeat the Black Iron Villa."
"Of course, the Bamboo Leaf Gang will not treat you badly, and will reward you based on your performance on the battlefield afterwards."
"The worst reward is a year of free rent in the core area."
"Those who perform well can even join the Bamboo Leaf Gang and become stewards or deacons."
Elder Zhao did not waste any nonsense. He went straight to the point and announced the benefits of being a mercenary of the Bamboo Leaf Gang.
After that, they quietly waited for the response from the residents of Green Willow Lane.
However, the time for counting interest has passed.
Not only did the residents of Green Willow Lane not respond, many of them went back to their houses and closed the doors without giving any face.
What a joke!
No matter how generous the reward is, you have to live to get it.
It’s not like everyone doesn’t know what’s happening on the battlefield now.
In the past few days, the number of fallen monks in the late stage of Qi Refining alone has not been less than double digits.
With such danger, who would dare to become a mercenary?
Seeing that no one responded to his call, Elder Zhao narrowed his eyes.
Then he mobilized the spiritual power in his body to make his voice extremely penetrating:
"Starting from next month, the rent in Green Willow Lane will increase to 200 low-grade spiritual stones per month!"
What? !
Increased to 200 low-grade spiritual stones per month?
The residents of Green Willow Lane present all thought they had heard wrongly, and all looked shocked.
Soon, a resident asked:
"Elder Zhao, is what you said true?"
"Absolutely true!"
Elder Zhao's voice was extremely majestic, and there was no room for resistance.
After it was confirmed that the rent was really going to rise to 200 low-grade spiritual stones per month, almost all the residents of Green Willow Lane were furious.
"Elder Zhao, your rent increase is unethical. It's a special period now, even if you don't lower the price, how can you double the rent?"
"That's right, how can we afford such a huge increase?"
"This is forcing us to go to the battlefield in disguise, so we might as well move away."
"Elder Zhao, the Zhuye Gang's random increase in rent will damage the reputation of Zhuye Forest."
"This is so unreasonable."
The residents of Green Willow Lane protested one after another.
Everyone felt that the rent increase by the Zhuye Gang was very inconsistent with the rules and felt quite dissatisfied.
Elder Zhao was unmoved and said in a silent tone:
"The rent has been set. When the next rent collection day comes, I will come to collect it in person. Not even a copper penny should be missing."
After saying that, he turned around and left with the people who came with him.
Some residents couldn't swallow this breath and began to loudly incite the people around them:
"If the rent is doubled, doesn't it force us to go to the battlefield and force us to die?"
"It's a big deal! I can't live anymore!"
"I'll pack my bags now and move out of the Bamboo Leaf Forest today!"
"There is no master here, only a place for master!"
Many residents were already dissatisfied, and when someone incited them, they immediately shouted:
"It's okay to stay here, let's leave tonight!"
"I would rather die in the mouth of a monster outside the forest than die on the battlefield!"
"Who wants to move out today? We can form a team together so that we can take care of each other when we leave!"
As soon as these words came out, many residents responded and shouted to leave this bamboo forest that would only continue to squeeze the residents.
More and more residents were shouting, and the noise became louder and louder.
"In special times, anyone who dares to move away will be treated as an undercover agent who wants to tip off Black Iron Villa and will be killed without mercy!"
As Elder Zhao spoke, his foundation-building cultivation exploded in vain, and the powerful spiritual pressure instantly suppressed all the noise.
After feeling this terrifying spiritual pressure and the traces of murderous aura inside.
The residents of Green Willow Alley who were still clamoring to move out suddenly became silent. They dared not speak out in anger.
"You can take care of yourself!"
After saying these words, Elder Zhao left Green Willow Alley with the accompanying group of people.
After he walked away, Green Willow Lane became noisy again.
Some were yelling and swearing.
A bit sighing.
There were also people communicating in low voices, plotting something.
"What are we going to do next?"
Wen Zhiyun frowned slightly, feeling very pessimistic about today's sudden rent increase.
Chen An picked up one of her delicate hands, rubbed it and said:
"My husband is an alchemist. As long as he provides elixirs to the Bamboo Leaf Gang on a regular basis, he can be rent-free. There is no need to risk going to the battlefield yet. Let's take one step at a time and see what happens."
"Well, it's up to you."
Wen Zhiyun's cheeks turned red.
At this time, one of her delicate hands was being gently kneaded by Chen An, and the warm touch from her palm made her feel a little shy.
I feel embarrassed in such a public place.
However, she didn't want to pull back.
Because she enjoyed the current feeling of being obsessed with Chen An.
This makes her feel very happy.
