I really became a king.

Chapter 537 The Powerful Liu Family

After some "difficult" bargaining, An Ju finally got the stone. While he was relieved, he couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Then... well, will you really give me ten thousand acres of fertile land? You are not lying, are you?" Liu Guangqiu always felt that it was a little unreal. After seeing An Jucai put the stone in his arms, he asked uneasily.

"Don't worry, uncle. I will definitely give you what I promised you." An Jucai was helpless. It was indeed a scam, but if possible, he would like to experience this scam a few more times.

"Okay, as long as you don't lie." Liu Guangqiu smiled awkwardly, and then said, "My son-in-law is also working for Prince Yi's Mansion now..."

An Jucai didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at first, but he immediately realized that it was a warning to him not to embezzle the stones, otherwise his son-in-law would go directly to Prince Yi's mansion to file a complaint.

An Jucai glanced at Liu Guangqiu who was smiling awkwardly and shook his head slightly. He really didn't know whether to say that the other person was smart or stupid.

If he really wanted to embezzle this "treasure", the first thing he had to do was to get rid of his son-in-law.

Liu Guangqiu seemed to realize something at this time, and asked again: "I wonder where Steward Ding, who was in charge of the Dacun Royal Farm, is now? I heard that he was promoted?"

When he heard the name Dacun Huangzhuang, An Ju knew who this Deacon Ding was. He was none other than Ding Ren, who was now in charge of "Dark Falcon".

"Uncle, do you know Deacon Ding?" An Ju asked.

Liu Guangqiu rubbed his hands awkwardly, still smiling awkwardly: "We are not too familiar with each other, but sometimes we sit together to drink tea and talk, and we get along well.

My son-in-law was recommended by Deacon Ding, so he was able to work in Prince Yi’s Palace..."

An Jucai smiled bitterly in his heart, well, he had indeed been successfully threatened.

Deacon Ding is not comparable to his son-in-law Song Ayi. He is in charge of one of the two major intelligence sources in Prince Yi's Palace, and his power is even greater than that of the two chief stewards in the inner room.

"Back when we were at the Imperial Manor in Dacun..."

Liu Guangqiu wanted to continue talking, but An Jucai didn't want to listen anymore. It was obvious that Ding Ren was deliberately arranged by his own prince. If he continued to listen, it would be easy to violate taboos, so he could only interrupt.

"Uncle, don't worry. The ten thousand acres of fertile land and other conditions promised to you will be fulfilled tomorrow morning."

When Liu Guangqiu walked out of the tent, he still felt it was a little unreal. Was it so easy to get ten thousand acres of fertile land?

But then he felt a little painful, and he still wanted to keep the stone for his son so that he could go further in martial arts training.

However, he also understood the meaning of "it is a crime to possess a treasure". The Liu family had no chance of keeping the stone, and it would be good to have the support of Prince Yi's Mansion.

Because the steward Xiao An had already implicitly stated that Prince Yi's Mansion would accept the Liu family's favor and would protect the Liu family's peace in the future.

The current power of Prince Yi's Palace is no weaker than that of the eight secular dynasties, so it will not make promises easily.

However, this made Liu Guangqiu feel even more painful. What kind of treasure could be exchanged for this promise from Prince Yi's Mansion?

If I leave this treasure to my son...

Sighing secretly, Liu Guangqiu stopped thinking about the matter and walked home happily to discuss with his wife how to manage the ten thousand acres of fertile land.

That night, a memorial about Liu Guangqiu exchanging a treasure for ten thousand acres of fertile land was delivered to Jiang Yi's desk.

Jiang Yi read the memorial carefully from beginning to end, very slowly and carefully. Duo Luo and An Daohui were waiting nervously below.

After a long time, Jiang Yi put down the memorial, picked up the colorful stone again, looked at it over and over again for a while, shook his head and said, "It's just an ordinary beautiful stone." Hearing this, the two people who were waiting felt a little uneasy. Did they guess the emperor's intention wrongly?
But then Jiang Yi smiled: "Good job!"

Hearing these words, Duo Luo and An Daohui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, finally the job was not messed up.

Duo Luo took a step forward and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, the other party also wants a pasture and some money..."

Jiang Yi raised his hand to interrupt Duo Luo and said, "The ranch is inevitably involved in the warhorse trade, which is sensitive and complicated, so don't let him get involved.

As for money, don't give it to me. Ten thousand acres of fertile land is enough for me."

Duo Luo and An Daohui looked at each other. This was different from what they had imagined. They originally thought that their prince would definitely agree, but he actually refused.

They instructed An Ju to make the promise to Liu Guangqiu, but now they can't fulfill it.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yi said again: "You don't need to give the ranch and money, just give two rows of shops along the street."

After saying that, he stood up and walked to the Western Border map, pointed to two places and said, "One row is inside the Demon Realm Pass, and the other row is outside the Western Demon Realm Pass. You can discuss the specific locations on your own."

Duo Luo and An Daohui bowed in agreement. Compared with ranches and money, it was obvious that a shop was easier to pass down from generation to generation.

The weight of the Liu family in their hearts has become even heavier.

On the second day, the news that the Liu family used a treasure to return ten thousand acres of fertile land and two rows of shops spread throughout the Demon Realm. Most people were just envious of the Liu family, but many people were curious about what the treasure was.

Not only did they exchange for so many fertile fields and shops, Kongtong Mountain even spread the word. The meaning was very obscure, but everyone who should understand understood it.

Prince Yi's Mansion is personally endorsing the Liu family to deter those who have evil intentions.

After multiple forces joined forces to investigate, they finally found out a little bit of information.

This treasure seems to be given to Prince Yi to make up for the previously damaged Wu Ji. This can explain why Prince Yi's Mansion personally stood up for the Liu family. This is indeed a favor that cannot be measured by material money.

No matter what, with the help of this bounty order, the Liu family, which was once just an ordinary family, officially became the largest gentry in the Western Frontier Demon Realm.

Although not the richest, he definitely owns the most land.

Seeing that the Liu family's future had been settled, Jiang Yi shifted his attention to other aspects.

First of all, it was Wen Zong Avenue. Jiang Yi gave the books left by the great sage Wen Da from Yinshan Realm to Wen Zong Mansion. A group of Wen Zong strongmen, including the fourth Wen Zong ancestor, were overjoyed.

These books are exactly what the wild continent lacks. With these books, Wen Zong's foundation will become extremely profound.

The biggest shortcoming of Wen Zong in the Wild Continent was made up.

In the Yinshan Realm, it is just the opposite. The literary style is flourishing, but the great way of literature has never been awakened.

Therefore, the second step Jiang Yi had to take was to select a group of scholars who had awakened to the great Wen Zong Dao and go to the Taimang tribe to preach.

For this purpose, Jiang Yi specially summoned the fourth ancestor of Emperor Wenzong to the Jingqi Hall.
