The villain helps me build infrastructure

Ji Changlin followed Yan Cheng back to Qingyuan, and was directly arranged to be Yan Cheng's cohabitant.

He looked around at the furnishings in the house, and finally had the real feeling of escaping from Qu'an.

It's just that when he just entered the city, his surprised expression was too obvious, so Yan Cheng asked: "Are you disappointed with Qingzhou City when you arrive in Qingzhou City?"

Compared with Qu'an, Qingzhou is indeed far behind.

Ji Changlin shook his head and said, "I'm not disappointed, I'm just curious."

He asked Yan Chengdao: "You also came here from other places, didn't you?"

Yan Cheng nodded.

"Then are you disappointed?" Ji Changlin asked again.

Yan Cheng chuckled: "Of course I'm not disappointed. Although Qingzhou is not as good as Yangcheng, I like it better here."

Or to be more precise, Qingzhou is very poor now, and everyone can only eat enough and wear warm clothes, but Yan Cheng feels a completely different vitality here from Yangcheng.

Everyone here, from the city lord to the mortals working in the mining area, is extremely alive.

Maybe Qingzhou is an old, outdated, remote and poor place in the eyes of others, but in his heart, Qingzhou is a brand new, vibrant and hopeful city.

Yan Cheng hadn't read any books, and he couldn't tell the reason behind it, but his feelings were so real that he couldn't fake it at all.

Ji Changlin didn't understand the meaning of Yan Cheng's words at the moment, so he just nodded ignorantly.

Early the next morning, someone from the City Lord's Mansion came to register his information.

"What are you good at?" Ji Changlin thought about it all night yesterday, but he still didn't want to go hunting with the hunting team. It was not because of other reasons, but because he thought he could do something more valuable. Can refine weapons."

Wan Jie paused when he heard the words, raised his head, and asked in surprise, "You know how to make alchemy? Can you make weapons?"

Ji Changlin nodded: "I have learned since I was a child that pills can be used to practice some yellow grades, and the same is true for magic weapons."

Heaven and earth are mysterious and yellow, and the yellow rank is the lowest, but for ordinary Qi refining and foundation building monks, the medicines and magic tools of the yellow rank are enough.

If you sell it outside, you can also sell it for a lot of money.

Wan Jie happily completed the registration, and then asked: "Then are you willing to teach others?"

In the current Qingzhou, many technologies and knowledge are shared, Qingzhou people are used to it, but Wan Jie is worried that Ji Changlin is not willing to teach these things to others.

Sure enough, Ji Changlin frowned and said, "Do you have to teach?"

Wan Jie said: "Qingzhou City doesn't have such a regulation, but this year it will introduce a contribution point system. If you are willing, you should be able to get a lot of contribution points."

He heard from his master that the current city lord is planning to use the items in his private treasury as exchange items.

Although the city lord himself does not have such things as gold, silver, jewelry, and grains, he has many secret books on various exercises and miscellaneous notes on history books.

To put it simply, materials are not abundant now, so contribution points can generally only be exchanged for knowledge, not materials.

However, these are still under consideration, and naturally they cannot be said outside.

Wan Jie continued: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to. It's just that you can refine alchemy and weapons by yourself. I'm afraid you won't be too busy. If you can find some helpers, you can do some chores."

The previous two factories and the construction team all adopted the method of performing their own duties, so now Qingzhou people subconsciously have to divide their labor in everything they do.

Just like alchemy, the process is very complicated, and the most important steps can be done by yourself. As for other simple steps, if they can be handed over to others, then let others do it, so the efficiency will definitely be improved a lot.

After hearing Wan Jie's explanation, Ji Changlin was a little moved. He said, "I really need help."

Wan Jie said: "Well, how about this? The medical hall has been researching alchemy before. Although it has not been able to refine any pills, it has also improved a lot of pills. You can go to work in the research institute under the medical hall first. With the ability to refine elixir, the research institute can be justifiably independent."

Ji Changlin nodded, and he didn't ask about the remuneration either. He knew in his heart that he was able to get out of the sea of ​​suffering because of the help of the city lord and Qin Yue.

He estimated the value of his life. To repay this life-saving grace, he would have to work for free in Qingzhou City for many years before he could afford it.

But he didn't mention the remuneration, but Wan Jie said: "The supplies in Qingzhou City are not abundant now, so the supplies everyone receives are limited, but food and clothing can be guaranteed, and a place to live can also be guaranteed. When the supplies are more abundant, There should be extra rewards."

Now everyone in Qingzhou City can only guarantee food and clothing. It is impossible to live a good life like Qu'an in one step.

But Ji Changlin doesn't care about these, he doesn't like Qu'an, no matter how good Qu'an is, in his eyes, it's like hell, but in Qingzhou, everything is new, everything he has never seen before, here It represents his new life.

At the same time, everyone else also knew the news of the city lord's return.

When the city lord came back, their hanging hearts were relieved.

There is no city lord in the city, and it always feels like the backbone is missing.

The directors of the sub-district office were also called to the city lord's mansion for a meeting, and they were talking about the spring plan.

"It's already May, and there is no shortage of people at the mine vein. The repair of the house has to be put on hold for the time being. Fortunately, everyone is used to living in buildings now. For courtyards and villas, we will start construction in winter."

After Xie Ang said that, someone asked, "What about the mud factory and the masonry factory?"

Xie Ang smiled and said: "Speaking of these two factories, this time we went out and sold a lot of spirit stones from the inventory left by the house repairs, and received orders."

They produced a lot of mud and masonry at that time, but they didn't have time to repair the house, so they left them all. Unexpectedly, the sales of these things were quite good, and they could be sold at a high price.

The others also looked at each other in blank dismay, not expecting that these two things could be sold outside.

Xie Ang smiled and said: "It's just a verbal agreement. If people from other cities want to buy our mud and bricks, we can start work after paying the deposit. There is no need for now. The monks will go to the hunting team together. Ordinary people continue to go to the mine, and kindergartens, literacy classes, and qi refining classes are also the same as before, but the time has been adjusted."

"What about the food?" Someone asked again, this is what they are most concerned about.

Xie Ang said: "Everyone don't have to worry about the food. This time the city lord took us to Qu'an and bought a month's worth of food. If the envoys of Tianyuanzong don't come later, we can go to Qu'an again. "

After listening to his words, everyone was completely at ease.

"After a while, everyone will take the food back and distribute it, so that other people can feel at ease."

The daily necessities to be distributed had already been prepared, Xie Ang clapped his hands, and Wan Jie led the others out with a few storage bags.

"It's still the old rule. Everyone has to sign and sign. There can't be more or less. Everyone is old, so I don't need to mention it."

With this spring mobilization meeting, the entire Qingzhou city has returned to its previous order.

Jiang Qin was originally worried, but when she heard that the city lord had returned and brought food, her heart dropped.

As soon as she relaxed, she was accidentally caught.

"What are you cooking?!" Wan Jie looked at Jiang Qin in surprise.

Xie Ang was presiding over the meeting today, so he handed over the meal delivery to the city lord to Wan Jie. Wan Jie thought that it was his first time to pass the meal to the city lord, so he was afraid of making mistakes in the details, so he went to the kitchen half an hour earlier.

Unexpectedly, he discovered that Jiang Qin was cooking other things.

He hasn't given Jiang Qin the meat of today's spirit beast, so why is there a fresh piece of meat still dripping blood on the cutting board in the kitchen?

Jiang Qin's face turned pale with fright.

She was very careful on weekdays, but these two days the city lord left and no one came to look for her again, so she was no longer as vigilant as before. Who knew that she would run into Wan Jie today.

"I, I..." She was so nervous that she couldn't speak, and she couldn't think of any reason to prevaricate.

Wan Jie said decisively: "Don't explain it to me, I have to tell the city owner about this!"

The meat in Jiang Qin's hand was probably the monster meat that should have been thrown away.

The matter of stealing meat can be big or small, but monster meat itself cannot be eaten, and eating it is harmful to the body, so Wan Jie must not keep this matter a secret.

So Su Qiuyan soon found out.

"This is indeed the meat of the snow wolf." Su Qiuyan glanced at the meat, then asked Jiang Qin, who had been shaking her hair down, "Are you hungry for meat?"

Jiang Qin swallowed, and lied, "Yes."

Of course she is not gluttonous.

After her spiritual roots were abolished, her body deteriorated day by day. After sorting out the spiritual power of monster meat, it was no different from spirit beast meat. If she ate these meats for nourishment, her life span would be longer .

Her original intention was not to steal, but seeing that no one wanted the meat, it would be a pity to throw it away, so she came up with the idea of ​​stealing the meat.

Su Qiuyan sighed and said: "You used to be a monk, you should know that ordinary people can't take this monster meat at all, even if a monk eats it, it will cause spiritual turbulence in the body, even if you are greedy for meat, you shouldn't eat it." Eat monster meat."

Hearing him sigh, Jiang Qin became even more nervous.

Because she intuitively felt that the city lord was not sympathizing with her, let alone pitying her.

The city lord sighed, it should be an excuse not to believe her clumsy gluttonous meat.

Sure enough, Su Qiuyan said in the next sentence: "You have a secret, don't you?"

Jiang Qin's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned even paler.

Su Qiuyan continued: "You can take monster beasts, that's why you were kicked out of the Lieyang Sect and why your spiritual root was abolished, isn't it?"

Jiang Qin bit her lip and said nothing.

Su Qiuyan said: "Don't be nervous, I'm not interested in your secrets."

Even if Jiang Qin didn't say anything, he could probably guess something.

Since Jiang Qin dared to eat monster meat, either she has a way to sort out the chaotic spiritual power in the monster meat, or she can eat monster meat herself, no matter which one it is, it is indeed a troublesome secret.

Although Su Qiuyan said so, Jiang Qin didn't dare to gamble, she insisted with difficulty: "City Master, I'm really just greedy for meat, I thought, it shouldn't matter if I eat it once or twice."

When she was in the Lieyang Sect, it was because she exposed her secret that her spirit root was abolished.

That person didn't want other people to know her ability, and he didn't want her to use this ability to turn herself around, so she couldn't practice anymore in this life, and threw her to Yangcheng to fend for herself.

But what that person didn't know was that her ability was innate, and it had nothing to do with whether she cultivated or not, and it had nothing to do with whether she had spiritual roots.

But his goal was indeed achieved, and she didn't dare to reveal her ability without spiritual power.

But now...

Jiang Qin clenched her fists.

She shouldn't be able to get away easily today.

But the next moment, Su Qiuyan's words surprised her.

"I don't care why you can eat monster meat. Since you can eat it, then take some and eat it. Anyway, the meat will be thrown away in the end." Su Qiuyan said.

Jiang Qin almost thought she heard it wrong, her eyes widened: "City Lord, don't you want to hold me accountable?"

Su Qiuyan shook his head.

It was hard for him to find a cook. If Jiang Qin was really punished, he wouldn't care, just continue to eat Bigu Pills, but Qin Yue would definitely take this matter to heart and continue thinking about finding a cook for him.

In this case, forget it, it's just some monster meat, there is nothing to punish.

Jiang Qin still couldn't believe it, and asked again: "City Master, then you don't want to know why I can eat monster meat?"

Su Qiuyan sighed in his heart, there are too many secrets in this world, even everyone has countless secrets, he is really not interested in other people's secrets.

So he said, "It's really not very interesting."

So what if he knew Jiang Qin's secret?He is not interested in monster meat.

but……

Thinking of this, Su Qiuyan asked again, "You can eat monster meat, so can you let others eat monster meat?"

When Jiang Qin heard this, her mood was really up and down. Just now the city lord said that she was not interested in her secrets. She was not relieved, but the city lord started asking again.

Is this interesting or not?

She was about to lie when she suddenly caught a look.

That was Qin Yue standing beside the city lord.

Qin Yue glanced at her hand, and then showed a very dangerous smile.

The hairs on Jiang Qin's back immediately stood up.

For some reason, at this moment she felt that Qin Yue knew her secret!

Jiang Qin subconsciously swallowed the words she had just thought up.

Qin Yue said at this time: "City Lord, Wan Jie knows about her stealing monster meat, and Housekeeper Xie also knows. If you continue to give her meat, other people will know one day. Paper can't cover it." Fire."

Su Qiuyan knew that Qin Yue's words were for Jiang Qin, so he asked kindly, "So?"

Qin Yue said: "So it's very simple. If she wants to keep her secret, she'd better stop taking monster meat in the future. After all, the four of us don't have to pursue her secret. Others don't have to. There will always be someone looking for her Trouble."

When Jiang Qin heard this, there was something she didn't understand.

Qin Yue's meaning is very simple, if her answer dissatisfies the city lord, then she can no longer eat monster meat in the future.

But if she can get other people to eat monster meat, of course they can eat as much monster meat as they want.

Qin Yue looked at her with a half-smile: "The physique of being able to eat monster meat is really rare, and many people should want to study it. If the people of the Lieyang Sect find out, they will probably take you back from Yangcheng , I don’t know if the person who threw you to Yangcheng will ask about your situation.”

If you were talking about the pros and cons with her in the previous words, then it was a real threat now.

Jiang Qin took a deep breath, she knew that the city lord might let her go, but Qin Yue would never.

This young man, apart from seeing the city lord in his eyes, doesn't care about other people at all.

She was silent for a while, and finally resigned to her fate: "That's right, I can make other people eat monster meat as well."

Hearing this sentence, Qin Yue laughed.

He already knew Jiang Qin's secret, but it was useful to keep Jiang Qin, so he didn't intend to expose it, but since the city lord wanted to use Jiang Qin, he would not watch Jiang Qin lie to the city lord.

"City Lord, if Jiang Qin didn't lie, then most of the food problem in the city would be solved." Qin Yue said with a smile, "Every time the hunting team goes out, they can bring back a lot of monsters, adding up to at least two or three There are only less than 600 people in the city with a hundred catties of meat, so now everyone can eat meat."

This is indeed what Su Qiuyan was thinking about.

He really doesn't care about Jiang Qin's secret, but he doesn't eat meat, while others are still on the verge of food and clothing.

Now that they have no way to farm, hunting is also a good way.

He said to Jiang Qin: "As long as you can do it, even if the city lord of Yangcheng comes in person, I can protect your life."

Jiang Qin suddenly raised her head.

Su Qiuyan said: "Whether you agree or not is up to you."

Jiang Qin's heart beat wildly.

She really didn't expect that she could get the promise of the city lord.

Wasn't it because of this promise that she wanted to stay in the City Lord's Mansion?

Her throat was a little dry, and she couldn't help but confirm: "What the city lord said is true?"

Su Qiuyan said, "Why should I lie to you?"

Jiang Qin swallowed, suppressing the excitement in her heart and said, "As long as the city lord is willing to save my life, I'm willing to work for the city lord!"

Seeing that she was about to kneel when her knees gave way, Su Qiuyan flicked her fingertips, and a gust of wind lifted her up.

"You don't need to kneel. I will work hard on you in the future. I will ask someone to keep your affairs secret for you."

When Jiang Qin left, everyone was still dizzy, as if she was stepping on cotton.

Wan Jie saw her stumbling, but he was overjoyed, the comparison was really strange.

Did you say you were punished?She is laughing again.

Are you saying you were not punished?She walked away again absentmindedly.

Simply weird!

But the weirder thing was yet to come, because the city lord suddenly ordered that the monster meat from now on would not need to be thrown away, it would all be packed in a storage bag and handed over to him.

Now the monks of the hunting team were puzzled.

Until a few days later, the people of the City Lord's Mansion gave everyone a catty of meat.

"This..." The directors of the street office were stunned when they got the meat.

It is true that they now have much more spirit stones than in the past, but it is impossible to give meat to everyone. Besides, with this spirit stone, all of them should be used to buy food.

"This is monster meat." Seeing that everyone was really puzzled, Xie Ang explained, "In the past few days, the hunting team has hunted back a total of 23 monsters, and there are nearly 500 catties of meat after skinning, so everyone You can share a pound."

Although he explained, it was more frightening than not explaining.

How can monster meat be eaten? !

No matter how poor Qingzhou is, it won't commit mass suicide, right?

They would rather eat dirt than monster meat!

Seeing this, Xie Ang smiled: "The city lord has recently researched a method to sort out the chaotic aura in the meat of monsters, so of course this meat is edible, not only edible, but also no different from spirit beast meat. If you If you eat two taels, I’m afraid you won’t be hungry for a day.”

When everyone heard the words, it was like listening to a heavenly scripture.

Immediately, a monk asked, "Spiritual beast meat? You said what we are holding is spiritual beast meat?"

Xie Ang said: "You will know when you go back and eat, I will never lie to you."

Butler Xie really didn't need to lie to them, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, with a lot of questions in their stomachs, but they didn't know where to start.

In the end, Xie Ang said: "Don't worry, this meat is definitely edible, and you don't have to worry about food in the future. Although we can't grow whole grains, we can eat the meat of the monsters we hunt. There is meat to eat. It can fill your stomach, not to mention that there is spiritual energy in this meat, whether it is a mortal or a monk, eating it is good for you."

With Xie Ang's reassurance over and over again, everyone could barely feel at ease.

Butler Xie has said so, so it must not be a lie.

Thinking about it this way, everyone's mouths began to salivate. It's been too long since they haven't eaten meat, and they are very greedy.

It's just that Xie Ang still didn't forget to ask before everyone left: "Once the meat is eaten, the words will rot in the stomach. Everyone should know what to say and what not to say. If you let others People know that people in Qingzhou City can eat monster meat, so I don’t need to say the result, everyone should know that, let alone eating meat, it is possible for people to destroy the city.”

Everyone trembled when they heard the word Miecheng.

Only then did they realize the seriousness of the matter.

This matter really cannot be said outside, not only can't be said, but it must be a secret that all Qingzhou people rot in their stomachs!

Seeing this, Xie Ang felt relieved. There are not many people in Qingzhou City now, and they all survived the most difficult time together. Naturally, they will not deceive their own people.

If there is...

Xie Ang thought of the city lord's answer.

"If there are people who betrayed Qingzhou, they should be killed directly. The crime of treason will never be pardoned."

"As for whether someone will come to trouble me?"

"I can run and jump, and I can escape if I can't be beaten, but the people in Qingzhou City can't escape."

"So I don't hope that someone in Qingzhou City will do such a stupid thing."

Xie Ang didn't want to either.

Because he didn't want Qingzhou to disappoint the city lord.
