In the famine, others ate Guanyin soil, but he had space to build a farm.

Just as Lin Kunlun was rushing home in a hurry, on the other side, Chen Jun was standing in the study, facing the harsh reprimand from his father, County Magistrate Chen, feeling uneasy.

In the study, County Magistrate Chen, sitting on a rosewood chair, frowned, his eyes revealing an indescribable worry. He looked at his son in front of him, with a complex emotion in his heart. Chen Jun stood aside, looking nervous, he could feel his father's heavy mood at the moment.

"Chen Jun!" County Magistrate Chen's voice suddenly sounded, with a bit of severity. He sighed and continued: "Now the Dakun Dynasty may be facing a big chaos."

Chen Jun was shocked. He had never seen his father look so serious. He couldn't help but ask, "Father, what happened?"

County Magistrate Chen took a deep breath and said slowly, "The court has received news that they will officially start collecting taxes this year. Not only will they collect taxes on land, but they will also collect taxes from the north to fight the enemy. This time, the court completely ignored the drought in the west and increased the tax amount. There is news that many people in the northwest have begun to flee their hometowns to avoid taxes. I'm afraid that this situation will soon happen here."

Chen Jun was terrified when he heard this. He knew what this meant. For those of them who had a lot of property, the most feared thing was troubled times. Once troubled times came, they might become penniless in an instant.

"Then...what should we do now?" Chen Jun asked anxiously.

County Magistrate Chen was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about a solution. He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said slowly, "Right now, food is the most important resource. How much food do you have?"

Chen Jun's heart tightened. He knew the importance of this question. He hesitated for a moment, then replied in a low voice: "There are still some... but not many."

County Magistrate Chen nodded, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He stood up, patted his son on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Jun, you must remember that we must act carefully now. In troubled times, self-preservation is the most important thing."

Chen Jun felt a little relieved. He knew his father's ability. Since the investigation had already begun, the whereabouts of the missing food would be found out sooner or later.

However, his worries did not dissipate. He knew that in troubled times, even if they found food, it would not guarantee their safety. He remembered what his father had just said, that in troubled times, the most important thing was to protect oneself. He took a deep breath and decided to be more cautious and not to be careless.

At this moment, Chen Jun suddenly remembered another thing. He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Father, I heard that Sun Ying wanted to transfer his casino to me recently, and I have agreed to the deal with him. What do you think about this matter..."

Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Chen frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Although casinos are still a good business at the moment, as the disaster becomes more and more serious, I'm afraid not many people will gamble. And no one can predict the current situation. Maybe one day these properties and shops will become a burden. You should find a way to cancel this deal."

Although Chen Jun was somewhat unwilling, he also understood that his father's analysis made sense. He nodded and agreed, "Okay, father, I will find a way to contact Sun Ying to cancel this deal."

After saying that, Chen Jun turned around and left the study. He looked up at the sky, which was clear without a single cloud. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. With such weather, this year's harvest might be bad again.

At this time, Lin Kunlun was resting at home. After a night of rest, he rushed to the mountain early the next morning. When he left, he also took two bags of wheat with him, saying that he was going to hide them in the mountain. However, he actually put the wheat into his own space.

Since he got the Ganoderma last time, Lin Kunlun's space has expanded a little. At this moment, he stood in a quiet place on the mountain and let his senses enter the space. He saw that the space was well organized by Xiaolu, and the places for planting herbs and crops were clearly divided.

"Master, how is it? I have taken good care of this place!" Xiaolu raised his head happily and said when he saw Lin Kunlun coming in.

Lin Kunlun looked at the herbs and crops that were growing well, and couldn't help but sigh at Xiaolu's strength. At the same time, he also found that the range of the space had obviously expanded a lot, at least by more than ten meters, so the space had increased by at least several hundred square meters.

"Xiao Lu! This space has expanded again! I wonder if there are any rewards or items that were previously stored here!" Lin Kunlun knew that his perception range had also expanded a lot. But he still wanted to ask, is it possible that the items that were previously stored here would appear?

"Got it, there is something here! But it's not a treasure, just an ordinary soft armor! I would have forgotten it if you didn't mention it!" Xiaolu suddenly said! He waved his hands, and something similar to ancient underwear appeared in front of him.

"What is this! You said it was soft armor!" Lin Kunlun looked at the thing floating in the air that looked like underwear. It looked like men's underwear made of white cotton cloth.

"Yes, master. This is a piece of soft armor. Although it looks ordinary, it is actually made of a special material that can withstand the slashing of swords. Although it is not as good as those high-level magic weapons, it can be regarded as a good self-defense item in the mortal world." Xiaolu explained.

Lin Kunlun was moved when he heard this. In this chaotic world, such soft armor can indeed provide him with a layer of protection. He reached out and took the soft armor in his hand. It felt soft but tough, and it was obviously not an ordinary item.

"Thank you, Xiaolu. This soft armor is very useful to me." Lin Kunlun said gratefully.

Xiaolu chuckled and seemed very happy to be able to help his master.

As the spiritual power of the space became more abundant, Lin Kunlun's body was able to move in and out of the space freely.

Lin Kunlun put the soft armor in his arms, ready to find an opportunity to put it on and try it out.

"Master! I have expanded the area for you to grow crops! These crops can mature once in about a day outside, so I turned all the crops into seeds and planted them! However, the spiritual energy that the crops can provide is too little, so please collect more useful herbs, preferably some spiritual herbs! Only then can the scope of the space be larger, and those fairy treasures can be used by the master!" Xiaolu saw the most satisfied expression and said with a smile.

"Of course! Right now, I haven't established a firm foothold in this world yet! When I develop in the future, I will collect a large number of aged medicinal herbs and spiritual herbs!" Lin Haoyue promised immediately. With this space, as long as the scope of the space is larger, it can get more food and grass. At that time, not only can it ensure that my family will not starve to death, but also rely on these food and grass to feed more people. Maybe it can also form a team.

Speaking of food and grass, Lin Kunlun didn't see the food he had collected. He couldn't help but ask Xiaolu curiously.

"Xiaolu, where did all those years go when I took them in?"

"For the items the master puts in, I have opened several small compartments in this space! As long as the master wants something, it will appear in front of him! This is actually the most basic function of the Fairy Jade Gourd," Xiaolu said with a smile at this time.

Lin Kunlun couldn't help but try it. He didn't store anything in the space, just the food.

"Little Green, let me see the food!"

As soon as Lin Kunlun finished speaking, he saw something similar to a storage compartment appear in front of him. The compartment was filled with a lot of food.

"Xiaolu, how much food can you exchange for this storage grid?"

"The space of this storage compartment actually depends on how much space the owner has developed! Although the storage compartment is suitable for a single compartment, the space it occupies is still the overall space! Theoretically, as long as the owner has enough spiritual energy, there will be no problem even if all the food in the world is put in it!" Xiaolu said confidently.

"Xiao Lu, does that mean that we can form our own little world here in the future?" Lin Kunlun said excitedly. It was magical to be able to control a little world.

"Master, if you want to form a small world, you need to work harder! My previous masters didn't do it! To form a small world, it must have its own energy source! That's what you call the sun! And all creatures at all levels need to have a balance!..." Xiaolu said a lot about the requirements for forming a small world. Lin Kunlun shook his head. He had just solved the problem of eating, so how could he think so far. But this space still gave him a lot of surprises.

Looking at all this, Lin Kunlun couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart. He knew very well that with such a magical space, he would definitely be able to carve out a world of his own in this chaotic world.
