Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 441 Mountain Closure
The formation of a dragon vein does not mean it will never dissipate.

They can even be cut off by human intervention.

Xu Yue had only heard the story of Liu Bowen severing the dragon vein as a tale before, but after entering the world of cultivation, he learned that it was true.

With the dragon veins of the world severed, spiritual energy has become even thinner.

Spiritual practice is naturally affected.

However, Xu Yue understood this perfectly.

A knight-errant uses his martial arts to break the law.

No ruler wants more people like that.

But things are different now.

Nowadays, the leaders at the top are not only focusing on the domestic market, but also on the global market.

The country's demand for spiritual practitioners is also increasing.

After all, the giant mushroom cloud has deterred the world. A major war would not affect major powers, and there would be virtually no open warfare, but the covert struggles have never stopped.

The authorities still place great importance on spiritual practice.

Especially after Xu Yue's trip to Meili, the higher-ups have paid more attention to cultivators.

If there were more people like Xu Yue, then
If it were to start a war, they could probably behead the enemy leader before the war even begins.

That's a slap in the face.

If used properly, that might be the key to victory.

Why did Xu Yue receive such attention from higher authorities?

In addition to promoting rural revitalization, it is also related to its ability to provide resources and cultivate experts.

Xu Yue went down the mountain.

Shuai Ming was also accompanying them.

The conversation between Xu Yue and Guo Tianyou and others just now did not force him.

He naturally knew both Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji.

Although we haven't had much interaction, we're still fairly familiar with each other.

A famous feng shui master and consultant for many real estate groups.

He didn't believe in feng shui before.

However, I believe it now.

"Can we take this opportunity to promote it?"

On the way down the mountain, Shuai Ming suddenly asked about Xu Yue.

Xu Yue was somewhat surprised.

"How do you plan to promote this?" Xu Yue said with a smile. "Say there's a dragon vein near Qinglongtan? Aren't you afraid of being labeled as promoting and banning superstition?"

"Isn't it said that there are some disturbances when a dragon vein is formed?" Shuai Ming continued, "If there is such a gimmick, it should attract a lot of people to come."

"The tourist attractions must be very crowded right now, right?" Xu Yue said to Shuai Ming. "Things in the cultivation world aren't kept in the open."

Upon hearing this, Shuai Ming immediately understood what was needed and could only nod, abandoning his plan.

Dragon veins and such are matters belonging to the cultivation world.

If it gets out, then it doesn't matter.

However, if you use it to create hype or for publicity, then you're going to be in trouble.

Because the spiritual community cannot be brought into the open yet.

Aren't all those cultivation sects like this?

Traditional martial arts were vilified so badly before, but no real masters came out to vindicate them.

"They went to the mountains?"

Zhang Ruoxi asked Xu Yue a question, noticing his confusion.

She hadn't seen Xu Yue when she took the child to the lab before, and only later learned that he had gone into the mountains with Shuai Ming.

"The water level at Qinglongtan has dropped, and Shuai Ming was a little worried, so I went to check on it," Xu Yue said. "But it's good news."

"A dragon vein?"

Zhang Ruoxi nodded.

If a dragon vein were to form over Qinglongtan, it would indeed be a good thing for them.

"We'll invite Grandpa and the others then," Xu Yue said. "And your brother and the others too."

Zhang Ruoxi nodded.

If a dragon vein were to take shape and generate a surge of spiritual energy, it would indeed bring astonishing benefits to those who cultivate.

"Are you sure?"

Xu Yue continued to ask.

What should we grasp?
Naturally, this means breaking through the four realms.

"It's hard to say," Zhang Ruoxi shook her head and said, "The key is that we don't know what the spiritual energy tide is like."

Xu Yue nodded.

They had no idea what the spiritual energy tide was like, nor how much it helped their cultivation.

We'll have to wait a few days to find out.

That evening, Xu Yue sensed a change in the spiritual energy nearby.

"So fast?" Zhang Ruoxi said in surprise, "Didn't they only start setting up the formation tonight? It's already done?"

"I don't know about that," Xu Yue said. "It should be a feng shui formation that attracts all the surrounding spiritual energy. Only the surrounding villages have abundant spiritual energy, which is why it can do that."

"It seems Third Uncle sensed it too." Xu Yue's phone rang, and seeing that it was Xu Jianghe calling, he immediately laughed, "I forgot to tell them."

Xu Yue answered the phone immediately and told Xu Jianghe about the matter before Xu Jianghe could speak.

Then, I mentioned it directly in the group chat to avoid others noticing and calling to ask.

Is a dragon vein about to take shape at Qinglongtan?
Those who cultivate know that the location of a dragon vein is rich in spiritual energy, making it an ideal place for cultivation.

Even the most blessed and secluded places are no different.

The next day, Xu Chengyang made a special trip back.

"Is Ruoxi confident?"

Xu Chengyang asked.

If we were to say who in Peach Blossom Village is most likely to break through to the fourth realm, it wouldn't be Liu Chengji, Li Zhuting, or the like, but rather Zhang Ruoxi.

"We'll have to see how the spiritual energy tide unfolds," Xu Yue said, shaking his head. "We've never seen a spiritual energy tide before."

“I once read in an ancient book that the surge of spiritual energy after a dragon vein is formed is called a gift from heaven and earth,” Xu Chengyang said. “It is not only helpful to cultivators, but also extremely beneficial to ordinary people. Bring the child along then. Um, tell your third uncle too.”

"Oh?" Xu Yue said with some surprise, "Does the ancient book mention the range of the spiritual energy tide, or the concentration of spiritual energy, or anything like that?"

"Take a look yourself." Xu Chengyang tossed a file bag to Xu Yue and said, "The records aren't very detailed. However, whenever it mentions the formation of a dragon vein, it's always beneficial. We don't know how far the impact will be, but the key is to find the place where the spiritual energy surge erupts."

“Guo Tianyou and his team should be able to find it,” Xu Yue said. “Even if it’s not entirely accurate, it should be close enough that we can get there in time.”

Xu Chengyang nodded. He didn't understand feng shui, but that didn't stop him from knowing about dragon veins. Feng shui was the real expertise.

"Does the farming family have any knowledge of dragon veins?" Xu Chengyang couldn't help but ask.

In terms of understanding the earth's veins, the agricultural lineage is probably superior to the feng shui lineage.

Of course, this may be related to the lack of transmission in the lineage of Feng Shui.

Xu Yue shook his head.

His legacy consists entirely of cultivation methods and supernatural formations; it contains none of the "knowledge" he has.

Otherwise, Xu Yue wouldn't have gone around collecting agricultural writings and such.

He accepts anything from farmers, not just farm produce.

The methods of cultivation, supernatural powers, formations, and so on, have been lost to the river of time.

Xu Chengyang left, but Xu Yue also came to visit.

The document bag contained not the original ancient books, but rubbings and translations.

Many people have talked about dragon veins, which has given Xu Yue a deeper understanding of them.

Dragon veins are actually a variant of the earth's energy.

Or rather, it is the essence of the earth's energy.

Of course, dragon veins are not only earth veins, but also water veins.

In comparison, farmers don't have much knowledge about water veins.

After all, no one in ancient times would have thought that it was possible to grow crops on water.

However, it's not that they are completely unaware of it.

Farmers also possess aquaculture skills. Xu Yue's aquaculture operation is quite large.
The formations set up in fishponds and reservoirs are somewhat different from those set up in fields.

"Take a look too, Grandpa brought it over specially."

After Xu Yue finished reading the materials, he immediately gave them to Zhang Ruoxi.

Zhang Ruoxi is very talented.

It's not just that their cultivation speed is fast, but also that they learn those supernatural abilities and formations quickly.

Aside from that little girl Li Zihan, Xu Yue had never seen anyone more talented than Zhang Ruoxi.

"How many more days?" Zhang Ruoxi asked Xu Yue after reading the list. "Can I call my parents over?"

“Go ahead and call!” Xu Yue said. “But we have to be quick.”

A surge of spiritual energy erupted, bringing blessings to a wide area.

As for how wide it is, that naturally depends on the size of the dragon vein.

The size of a dragon vein is related to the water veins and the terrain.

Xu Yue didn't know how big this dragon vein was.

But they are definitely no less than Zhang Ruoxi's parents.

Xu Yue even planned to invite his second aunt's family, his uncle's family, and even Wang Haolin's family.

Of course, Li Zhuting and his group from Taoyuan Village would also be invited.

The spiritual energy tide has a wide range of benefits, but the closer one is to the place where the spiritual energy erupts, the greater the benefit.

Is there really no place nearby that can accommodate people like them?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruoxi immediately picked up the phone and called Zhang Zelin.

As for how to persuade him, Xu Yue didn't care.

Is business more important, or is health more important?
Different people really do have different choices.

However, Zhang Zelin and the others chose to put aside their work and rush over immediately.

Guo Tianyou and his group set up a grand feng shui formation, but Xu Yue didn't pay much attention to it.

However, it was faster than expected.

"Are you sure the spiritual energy vent is in this Azure Dragon Pool?"

It wasn't Xu Yue who asked this question, but Li Liang.

Xu Yue also notified the Special Administration Bureau about this matter.

They had a personal relationship with Li Liang, and the Special Administration Bureau also had people in Taoyuan Village, so they couldn't keep this a secret from them.

Xu Yue never intended to hide it.

Rather than letting the nearby flowers and plants benefit at a lower price, it would be better to let the Special Administration Bureau handle it.

"Not bad at all."

Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji exchanged a glance and gave a somewhat uncertain answer.

"It should be right here."

Xu Yue spoke up, explaining that his perception of dragon veins was inherently stronger than others, even those at the same cultivation level.

Moreover, his level of understanding is higher than that of others.

"When will the spiritual energy surge erupt?" Xu Jianghe asked. "Should we close off the scenic area? Could the commotion pose a potential disaster?"

Is a disaster possible?

If the commotion is too great, it's not impossible that it could trigger an earthquake or something similar.

How did Xu Yue obtain the Earth Spirit Orb?

Xu Jianghe was aware of this.

"There may be unusual phenomena, but they're unlikely to cause a disaster," Xu Yue said. "What do you think?"

Xu Yue then asked Li Liang.

Can you confirm the exact time?

Li Liang remained silent for a moment before asking a question.

If it causes unusual phenomena and is seen by too many people, it can be quite troublesome.

After all, we live in the era of social media, and it's not that blocking information is impossible, but rather very difficult.

"We can only confirm the approximate time."

Liu Chengji shook his head, then looked at Xu Yue.

“I can clearly feel the dragon vein energy, but I don’t know what level the dragon vein energy needs to reach before it erupts with spiritual energy.” Xu Yue shook his head and said, “Let’s seal it off. If the phenomenon is too big and gets spread online, it will be troublesome to deal with. We can determine the approximate range within a few days.”

"One or two days, I suppose," Guo Tianyou said. "If we have to close the mountain, it will probably take at least two days. Are you sure? Closing the mountain for two days would result in significant losses."

Even if the anomaly is too great and spreads online, the losses from closing the mountain will be more than enough to cover it up.

Even scenic spots can use this as a publicity opportunity.

The traffic is staggering!

"Let's seal it off!" Xu Yue shook his head and said, "You don't want a large group of people filming you with their phones while you're cultivating, do you?"

"Oh!"

Upon hearing this, Guo Tianyou immediately shook his head.

He didn't want it to be posted online.

He just said that.

These days, business at the scenic area is booming.

Moreover, closing the mountain for two days is not just a loss of two days.

Moreover, the losses may extend beyond just economic damage; they could also negatively impact the reputation of the scenic area.

However, since the boss, Xu Yue, didn't care, they cared even less.

"The mountain is closed? For two days!" Shuai Ming looked at Xu Yue in surprise and said, "This is too sudden! Many tour groups are already on their way. It's too late to announce the closure now!"

“You guys discuss and come up with a feasible solution,” Xu Yue said. “Losing some money is fine, just try to preserve our reputation. If all else fails, drag it out to Taoyuan Village and provide them with food and lodging for two days. Taoyuan Village is still quite interesting to watch during this time.”

"This"

Shuai Ming listened in silence, seemingly pondering how to handle the matter.

“It’s not a holiday now, so I don’t think those tourists would mind staying a couple more days,” Xu Yue said. “We’ll provide two days of food and lodging, waive the entrance fees, and if that’s not enough, we can give them some special gifts.”

"Is a complete shutdown absolutely necessary?" Shuai Ming asked. "What about the other shareholders?"

Xu Yue is not the sole shareholder of the scenic area.

Besides Xu Yue, Wang Haolin and others are also shareholders, as are relevant departments in Gong'an City.

“They all know,” Xu Yue said. “Besides, the military is involved in this matter.”

"Is that alright?"

"What do you think? Just make up some excuse like 'maintaining facilities'."

Before he could finish saying the name of the general, Xu Yue spoke up.

Are you kidding me? Trying to shift the blame for closing the mountain to the military?

This would indeed give those tourists an explanation.

Those tourists will definitely understand.

However, Xu Yue believed that would only result in more harm than good.

Upon hearing the name "Shuai," he gave an awkward smile.

He felt like he'd just had a moment of madness and said something stupid.

"I'll go back and have someone look into it." Shuai Ming nodded and said, "We need to deal with the tour groups, and we'll probably have to deal with the individual tourists as well."

"Let's go to Qinglongtan together then."

Xu Yue nodded and spoke.

His ability to command a reputation is quite good.

Not only is the scenic area here well-managed, but the desert tourism area is also managed extremely well.

“Okay!” Shuai Ming nodded and said, “I’ve discussed the expansion of the visitor center with Lao Tian, ​​and he has no objections.”

Xu Yue nodded.

However, it seems that Shuai Ming brought this up intentionally.

Shuai Ming left, and gave a self-deprecating laugh.

He gets a share of such good things, let alone Tian Yizhi.

Of Xu Yue's many businesses, the farm is the core.

Aside from the cultivators and the many managers, Tian Yizhi was undoubtedly the person Xu Yue trusted most.
