I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 162 The area of ​​Thunder Bamboo Forest has increased! System modification complete!
【Yinfeng Cave Blood-Attracting Bees: This is a special blood gu that Yinfeng Cave is skilled at refining. The refining method comes from the tracking method of the Golden Silkworm Gu. It is said that the Golden Silkworm is the most terrifying gu technique of Yinfeng Cave. Even if a master hides his aura, he cannot escape detection and will be tracked.

The Blood-Attracting Bee, a type of blood gu, inherits the tracking ability of the Golden Silkworm Gu. As long as there is a residual aura that is locked onto within a certain range, it can be easily tracked!

Usage count: 3/3.

Unexpectedly, the invasion of the Demon Bees would produce something like this from the Yin Wind Cave.

The purpose of this thing is obvious: to track down and hunt down people. Within a certain range, it can make the target have nowhere to hide.

In the old version of the TV series adapted from Shushan, this thing had already shown its effect perfectly.

In reality, although this thing can be used three times, its effect seems minimal, since he doesn't need to hunt anyone down.

Unless some foolish person comes to cause trouble or sabotage at the Chen family's place and then runs away immediately, he might need this thing to find the person.

Then the other party will definitely have nowhere to escape.

I just hope that such unlucky people don't appear.

Just as he was thinking this, the game system suddenly displayed a game story prompt:

When you were controlling the Xuan Frost Lionhead Goose clan to eliminate the invading Demon Thief Bees, you discovered that one of them was carrying demonic energy and was blood red all over. It seemed to be from Yin Wind Cave, the infamous Blood-Attracting Bee. It seems that there are demonic people behind the invasion of the Chen clan by these Demon Thief Bees.

The other party may have their eyes on the Chen family's upcoming Demon Suppression Gathering, since the family has been gaining momentum recently, attracting the attention of major demonic forces.

However, the Green-Robed Ancestor of Yin Wind Cave is a powerful figure in the demonic path, clearly beyond the current capabilities of your Chen family. Therefore, you have decided to report this matter to the Shu Mountain Immortal Alliance!

Chen Han was surprised. He never expected that the daily Demon Bee Invasion quest would have such a plot development.

The Green-Robed Ancestor, that's the real BOSS.

At this moment, he was actually glad that he hadn't successfully traveled through time, because at least in reality, it was impossible for the Green-Robed Ancestor to actually appear.

Chen Dagou stepped forward and said, "Xiao Han, these Demon Bees keep invading us, and this cycle is really annoying. We should go up the mountain and find them."

"Uncle Big Dog, there's no need for this. Let them come if they want. We can play with them." Chen Han smiled and shook his head.

Just kidding. As long as the Demon Bee can still trigger quests and drop items, he'd love for it to come back more often, ideally several times a day.

That way he'll definitely experience the joy of getting tons of loot.

However, speaking of going up the mountain, he felt that he should go up the mountain. He looked at the white light shield that was still covering the Chen family.

The last modification to the 'Taoist Characteristic: Minor Punishment as a Major Warning' is not yet complete, and the shimmering light of the modification has not yet dissipated.

However, that's not important. What's important is that after the mountain became part of the Chen family's virtuous estate, the Chen family's territory expanded.

Previously, the materials used to make Leizhu Lingcha were from a bamboo forest controlled by the Chen family, which was classified as Leizhu Forest.

That bamboo forest is only a small part of this mountain. The entire mountain is now the property of the Chen family during the contract period, and there is also a bamboo forest area on the mountain.

Will this be automatically categorized as part of the Leizhu Forest?
So, we should go and take a look.

If, as he suspected, it is automatically classified within the Thunder Bamboo Forest area, then the Chen family's Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea production can be increased once again.

Thinking that he was also heading to the furnace room where Leizhu Lingcha was produced, he made a phone call to Shuisheng Bobo at the same time.

Uncle Shuisheng is in charge of the Chen family's specialty products department, which includes not only Leizhu Lingcha tea, but also the beehives for royal jelly once things stabilize.

Entering the furnace, it was bustling with activity. The clansmen making Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea chatted enthusiastically while coordinating the roasting process. There were roasted Thunder Bamboo Spirit Teas, and people were specifically assigned to inspect the brewed tea to ensure its success.

Because of initial concerns about production limitations, my uncle built several extra furnaces when he led the construction of the furnace room, and now more than half of them are still unused.

Therefore, if production is increased, there will be no problem with the furnace room.

What we lack now is not enough bamboo leaves.

The original bamboo forest of the Chen family has reached its current production limit; any further increase would be impossible as the bamboo leaves cannot keep up with the recovery and growth.

"Homeowner!"

"The head of the family has arrived."

"..."

When the clansmen saw Chen Han enter, they all greeted him respectfully and worked even harder to repay their patriarch.

After all, this job pays 7000 yuan, there aren't many hassles, you're surrounded by familiar family members, and most importantly, it's close to home.

It's fair to say that, apart from their own family, no one would offer them such good jobs.

They now deeply appreciate the benefits of having family protection, so they naturally treat the patriarch with great respect.

"Patriarch, please try this freshly brewed premium Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea." The clansman in charge of inspecting the finished product served him a cup of Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.

Chen Han took the tea and drank a sip. He immediately felt the special effects of the Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, nodded, and said, "Hmm, not bad!"

Afterwards, he also gave an instruction: "The processing of this Leizhu Spirit Tea must not go wrong. We cannot tarnish the reputation that our Chen family has worked so hard to build."

These words prompted the clansmen to assure them that there would be no problems.

As beneficiaries, they were even less willing to let the Leizhu Spirit Tea have any problems, otherwise they would lose their jobs and have to go back to working outside.
Chen Shuisheng arrived quickly and hurriedly asked, "Xiao Han, why is the call so urgent? What can I do for you?"

Chen Han smiled and said, "Uncle Shuisheng, bring a few people with me up the mountain. I've been looking through some ancient texts these past few days, and it seems that our family's feng shui formation relies on the geographical features of this mountain behind us. Recently, the energy of the formation has been overflowing, and it seems that it has also affected the trees and plants on the mountain. I want to go and see that bamboo forest on the mountain. Maybe the bamboo leaves can be used to make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea!"

"Really?" Chen Shuisheng's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"It's not certain yet, Uncle Shuisheng, you take some men and come with me first!" Chen Han instructed, then walked out of the furnace.

Chen Shuisheng immediately followed, and then called several people responsible for picking tea leaves to follow as well.

The mountain behind the Chen family is quite large, with one side bordering the Chen family and the other side bordering Shangyuan Village. The bamboo forest area borders Shangyuan Village.

Therefore, Chen Han led his men out of the Chen family compound and into the village.

The changes in Shangyuan Village are significant. The village roads have been cleared and are now very clean. The village paths have also been cleared and paved with stone slabs for tourists to walk on.

Some houses show signs of tourists coming and going, indicating that the village's homestay resources have already been put into use.

After all, the number of tourists that Chen's family is currently accepting every day is already beyond their accommodation capacity, and it has overflowed into the village's homestays.

In addition, a very large grass skiing project has been started on a private hillside in the village. Once the project is completed, tourists who come here will definitely go and try it out, since it's so close by.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, they could see that the village had already created a large pond. Chen Han knew that the village was going to build a fishpond to provide fishing for tourists, and even organize activities such as catching snails and loaches in the fields.

Some people say that tourists wouldn't be so bored as to come and do this?
No, on the contrary, it will.

Just watch a few short videos and you'll see how popular these kinds of activities are. Those tourists rolling around in the mud and having a blast would make people from rural backgrounds shake their heads in disbelief.

"Patriarch Chen." Guo Zhen saw Chen Han and the others and immediately ran over, panting, to greet them.

"Village Chief," Chen Han replied politely.

Guo Zhen took a couple of breaths and asked somewhat embarrassedly, "Patriarch Chen, I heard that the Chen clan is almost full. If the Chen clan needs to recruit more people, please consider the young people in the village."

This news cannot be kept secret if someone is determined to find out.

Now, most of the Chen family members who were working outside have returned, and some have gone to university and have good jobs. These people won't come back to sell their physical labor for a salary of 5000 or 7000 yuan.

Even if the salary is the same, 7000 yuan, those who do manual labor will go home to work without hesitation, but some people who sit in an office and get 7000 yuan while enjoying air conditioning will definitely not come back. These people even feel that doing manual labor is not respectable, even though they may not be able to save money on 7000 yuan outside.

After all, people have different environments, different upbringing and education, different experiences, and therefore different ideas.

Therefore, when the Chen family developed projects later, they had to hire people from outside.

Guo Zhen felt he wasn't capable of leading everyone to wealth, but he was good at helping them curry favor with powerful figures. So, upon seeing the Chen family head and his group, he hurriedly ran up to them.

Upon hearing this, Chen Han thought for a moment and then said, "Village Chief, to be precise, our Chen family is also registered in Shangyuan Village. If there's an opportunity, we'll definitely help the village out more." Just as the village chief said, the Chen family will definitely need to recruit people from outside when they launch any more projects.

For example, if we go up the mountain now and confirm that the bamboo leaves there can be used to make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, then we'll definitely need to recruit more people for the furnace. Those who are staying in the clan now and will be returning have basically been assigned to full positions.

The next step was to appropriately transfer the low-paid clansmen to the Leizhu Lingcha tea-frying position, increase their wages, and then recruit people to fill the positions previously held by these individuals.

Furthermore, once the rapeseed seeds are obtained, they will definitely be planted, and the planting area will be very large, requiring a large number of people.

When there are not enough people in the clan, we have to recruit from outside. This is a problem that Uncle Xiao, Uncle Da Gou, and Uncle Shui Sheng have also discussed.

The idea is to recruit from among relatives. After all, Chen has married off so many daughters and taken in so many wives. These families all have young people who need work and are very willing to take a job with a salary of 5000 in their hometown.

Of course, if these relatives can be recruited, there's no reason why villagers can't be recruited. Isn't there a saying that a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative?

However, whether it's hiring relatives, villagers, or even people from nearby villages in the future, supervision must be in place.

Those who perform well in the clan will definitely be promoted to basic management positions.

This is similar to how, in the past, when there was war and banditry, the Chen clan would gather young men from the surrounding villages, and the best members of the Chen clan would serve as captains of various teams of these young men.

In this way, the patriarch's orders can be thoroughly transmitted and every able-bodied man can obey commands. Otherwise, if the able-bodied men are gathered together, it will be difficult for them to exert their strength, let alone resist the chaos of soldiers and bandits.

Although we live in a new era where there are no rebels or bandits, some practices remain the same: we must use outstanding members of our clan to manage others.

"Thank you very much, Patriarch Chen." Guo Zhen was also excited upon receiving the reply.

He realized that the Chen family would definitely prosper in the future. By sticking to this powerful family, the young people of Shangyuan Village could also become wealthy in the village without having to wander outside, just like the members of the Chen family.

Guo Zhen didn't serve as the village chief for nothing.

After parting ways with the village chief, Chen Han continued to lead Uncle Shuisheng and the others up the mountain and into the bamboo forest.

He immediately instructed, "Uncle Shuisheng, go and pick some bamboo leaves from various places and mark the locations so I can see if I can make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea."

"Okay." Chen Shuisheng nodded immediately and led his men to get to work.

Chen Han also picked some bamboo leaves from under the bamboo stalks in front of him, then added them to his game inventory and checked the notes:

[Bamboo Leaves: These bamboo leaves may look like ordinary bamboo leaves, but they seem to have special uses!]

Chen Han was already somewhat pleased when he saw this note.

Because the bamboo leaves in that bamboo forest were just ordinary bamboo leaves, but these ordinary bamboo leaves were within the scope specified by the system. Only when they were used in the furnace specified by the system could the attributes of the Thunder Bamboo leaves be triggered to make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.

The system now implicitly recognizes this bamboo forest, which belongs to the Chen family, as part of the current notes.

Chen Shuisheng and his group were already very skilled at picking bamboo leaves. Before long, each of them had picked a small bag of bamboo leaves from different directions and showed them to Chen Han.

Chen Han pretended to inspect the bamboo leaves in each bag, then took the opportunity to collect some bamboo leaves into his game inventory. He noticed the same note in almost all of them:
[Bamboo Leaves: These bamboo leaves may look like ordinary bamboo leaves, but they seem to have special uses!]

With a look of delight, Chen Han instructed, "Uncle Shuisheng, immediately take people back to make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea from these bamboo leaves separately, and then check on the situation."

"Yes!" Chen Shuisheng nodded, a hint of joy in his eyes.

Judging from the joy on Chen Han's face, he could roughly guess that these bamboo leaves could also be used to make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.

Once it's done, the number of jobs with a salary of 7000 yuan per month that can be provided to the clan can definitely double.

This is absolutely great news.

The group hurriedly descended the mountain and returned to the Chen family.

As soon as Chen Han returned to the courtyard, his junior sister and Xiao Mi brought three girls to visit him. He had already met the lobster and the crooked-mouthed dragon king.

If he remembered correctly, the third one should be the one who was born with a poor limb coordination and always made a fool of himself when dancing, right?

This woman stands out among traditional Chinese beauties, and her male fans are totally obsessed with her.

As the head of the Chen family, it was normal for Xiaoyu and Xiaomi to bring them to visit. In addition, Xiaoyu and Xiaomi also wanted to discuss the performance with him.

The Chen Family Traditional Chinese Style event lasts for three days. The performances include those by members of the Chen Family and a few traditional Chinese style girls. The number of performances is limited, so it's impossible to put them all out in one day.

Therefore, the performances were interspersed over the three days, and Xiaoyu even went so far as to find the two demonic cultivators, Mingdi, and get them to perform for free.

It took more than an hour of discussion to reach a conclusion regarding the arrangements for this matter.

In the evening, Chen Han treated the three girls to dinner as a gesture of hospitality. After dinner, he went to the spirit field to continue modifying the spirit plant dew and watering the rapeseed. If all goes well, they should bloom tomorrow.

Back in his courtyard, it was completely dark. He washed up, took out a low-level spirit stone, and began cultivating.

Overnight, his true energy had clearly grown stronger. After heading out to a special spiritual cave to continue his cultivation, he climbed three old elm trees again to collect some dew and send it to his aunt.

It will take her time to recruit the palace guards and begin collecting dew.

However, the dew collected yesterday has lost its effect as rootless water after just one night, and even the trace of spiritual energy it carried has dissipated.

It seems that ordinary bottles are incapable of preserving water without roots.

After that, he prepared the medicinal meal and went to the spirit field again. Today, when he looked at the rapeseed planted, it was not only mature, but also had flower buds.

At this rate, they will all be in bloom by today, and then we'll just have to wait for the seeds.

Back in the courtyard, he thought about planting rapeseed flowers. It would be a great undertaking, and the planting area would be quite large. The cost of renting the land alone would be substantial, not to mention hiring workers and other expenses.

So, after thinking for a moment, he sent a message directly to Mr. Liu: "Benefactor, here is a merit-based property related to the dream of the Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable. Would you like to work together to interpret the dream of the Celestial Venerable?"

As soon as he sent the message, Mr. Liu immediately sent a voice message: "Yes, yes, Patriarch Chen. I returned to the group early this morning. Please give me the opportunity. I will rush back to pay my respects to you immediately."

Chen Han was satisfied with this person's attitude; the other party had clearly become a very devout believer.

After that, he picked up his phone and started watching videos. The videos that Douyin recommended to him today were all positive and uplifting, and worth liking.

If it weren't for the professor's boastful remarks at the end, the video would still be discussing the current state of modern youth. This professor quoted extensively from classical texts, belittling today's young people as utterly worthless.

Finally, with a sorrowful expression, he spoke for the young people's sake, offering them a message in the video.

It would be better to have fewer professors like Chen Hanjue. He's too much of a professor. He shouldn't always be giving young people advice. Young people don't need your advice; what they need is money.

I don't need any money, but a boyfriend or a girlfriend will do.

"Don't be so condescending all the time" is a piece of advice for young people.

Just as I put down my phone, I saw Uncle Shuisheng hurriedly bring people in, each of them holding a cup of tea.

Seeing this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he probably guessed what was going on.

"Xiao Han, good news, it's all done. All the bamboo leaves from that bamboo forest can be used to make Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea." Chen Shuisheng said, and had someone put the tea on the table.

Chen Han also took a few sips of each cup, and almost immediately he could feel the unique sensation that belonged only to Lei Zhu Ling Tea.

In other words, they were indeed all Leizhu Lingcha tea.

This is really good news.

The production of Chen's Leizhu Lingcha tea can be increased.

Almost simultaneously, the game information about the successful transformation through the minor punishment also appeared in his mind. Even the information about the sect's location on the mental screen was updated at the same time, showing upgrade requirements.

The effect of this minor punishment as a warning, as well as the new upgrade conditions for the sect's headquarters, truly surprised him.

Especially these new upgrade conditions, how do you even do that?
