I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 195 Chen's Xinhua Point! The viburnum trees will definitely be beautiful next year!
(Don't be so rigid about some things. Don't take one thing as the whole story. For things like stone tablets and stone carvings, as long as you can prove that they are family heirlooms, you don't have to hand them over. I added the text on the stone tablet that Baihua Palace gave to the Chen family because I knew some people would say that.)
……

Chen Han was genuinely surprised.

After thinking about it for a while, he even felt that the dust-removing formation recorded on this stone tablet was even more impressive than the stone formations of Zhuge Liang in movies.

After all, this +1 air freshness attribute is somewhat like transforming the local climate.

Moreover, for a tourist destination, the added advantage of fresh air is simply a super buff.

People travel to rejuvenate their minds and bodies, so a good environment is one thing, and good air quality is another.

Needless to say, the environment is exceptional; the feng shui of the house and the ancient architecture are unmatched by any other place.

There is still the "Ancient Tranquility Manual" now. As time goes by, many creative professionals who want to travel will probably think of the Chen family first.

The +1 air freshness attribute completely makes up for another shortcoming.

Another aspect is the scope.

Previously, the items Chen Han obtained were mainly effective within the sect's territory. This time, however, it's different. Although the effect is still primarily limited to the sect's territory, it also adds the attribute of affecting the location of the monument, which covers an area of ​​30 square kilometers.

This appears to be an extended, open version of the property.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes a lot of sense. After all, air is in a state of flux, and there is some knowledge about airflow and fluid movement in junior high school. So it is not surprising that the air in the Chen Clan's residence was modified and would spread outward.

Moreover, this effect naturally weakens the further outwards you go.

So, apart from the somewhat fantastical ability of the Stone Tablet Dust-Transforming Array to alter the air, everything else is quite scientific.

He already knew the location where the monument needed to be erected. After the prompt appeared, a map image appeared in his mind again, with a location marked for the monument.

This place is coincidentally the same area outside the Chen family's compound where they planted viburnum trees.

Chen Han immediately looked at the trigger conditions. Activating the dust-removing array patterns on the stone tablet with true qi was simple; he just needed to input true qi into the array patterns on the stone tablet.

The special locations in the game system have also been marked.

He had no experience with the special monument-erecting ceremony at this gate; he had never read about it before.

Therefore, the fabricated story he and the people from Chu County made about investigating the monument-erecting ceremony is now something they really need to investigate.

The Chen family possessed numerous Taoist texts, many of which concerned various rituals. After searching through the library for some time, they found a specific record of the ritual for erecting a stele.

Moreover, erecting a monument is not something that can be done casually; there are strict procedures involved, including choosing an auspicious day, selecting a site and orientation, offering sacrifices, worshipping and making offerings to the gods, ceremonial erection of the monument, and hanging red ribbons for blessings.

Choosing an auspicious day involves selecting the time for erecting a tombstone, avoiding inauspicious days such as the Three Killings and Double Funerals. Chen Han had some experience in this regard, after all, as the head of the Chen family, he had also studied some Taoist classics, so he was quite good at choosing auspicious days.

The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day to erect a monument.

There's no need to select a location, since the game system has already marked the location; we can just erect a monument there later.

Offerings consist of five items: incense, candles, paper money, fruit, flowers, and pastries, which are used to worship the gods.

The ceremony of erecting a monument involves performing a ritualistic stepping motion before the monument is erected, with others assisting and guiding the process. Items such as Zhenwu warding off evil coins, cinnabar, and five grains are placed under the base of the monument to symbolize good fortune.

Hanging red cloth is done after the monument is erected. A red cloth is hung horizontally on the top of the monument and tied tightly at both ends. It symbolizes joy and good fortune and has the meaning of warding off evil and disaster.

The process didn't seem difficult at first glance, so he sent a message to his junior sister, entrusting her with the task of preparing the things.

When Xiaoyu received her senior brother's message, she was editing a video with Xiaomi. She immediately complained, "I understand incense, paper money, fruit, flowers, and pastries, but what is this Zhenwu exorcising evil money?"

This really touched on her blind spot in knowledge; her senior brother knew perfectly well that she didn't like reading.

Beside him, Xiao Mi, dressed in a Taoist robe, smiled and said, "The Zhenwu Exorcising Evil Coin has the four big characters 'Zhenwu Exorcising Evil' on the front, and the Big Dipper is suddenly cut on the back, with a black tortoise and a red snake underneath. Go to the main hall and ask your auntie for it; she will definitely have it."

Xiaoyu knew this and quickly took action.

After instructing his junior sister, Chen Han put his phone away. Now he was just waiting for his uncle to bring people to plant the flowers. By the day after tomorrow, there would be enough flowers for the clansmen to plant in the courtyard and on the walls.

Activating the dust-removing array stone tablet and then using the Hundred Flowers Dew Talisman will give everyone a huge surprise.

Thinking it over, he decided to go out and check on the situation within the clan. He had only been out of the courtyard for a short while when he saw a man and a woman arguing, surrounded by many tourists who were taking pictures with their phones.

After all, in a tourist area like this, if a couple is arguing, there are bound to be onlookers.

There have been plenty of news reports about arguments at scenic spots in the past.

"Zhao Yan, tell me, did you cheat on me?" The girl kept punching the man, her face full of anger: "Otherwise, why would you have such bad luck at Chen's company, falling three times in a row?"

These words caused quite a stir among the surrounding tourists. Suddenly, they realized something important, and many began to discuss it quietly:
"Holy crap, the Chen family has this function too?"

"If it's true that doing something wrong will bring bad luck to the Chen family, then isn't having an affair a wrong thing to do?"

"Isn't the Chen family's place even more authoritative than the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

"..."

Chen Han wasn't surprised to hear this. Many couples had been so scared that they checked out and didn't dare to come back. This small punishment as a warning could indeed help people test their other half.

Once this insightful point gets out, it's likely that soon someone will use it to test their boyfriend or girlfriend.

At that moment, the man suddenly became angry: "I did cheat on you, I gave you 1 yuan a month for spending money, a car, and we saw each other a few times a month. Don't you know that?"

The girl was stunned when she heard this.

The surrounding tourists all started making noise.

This is absolutely amazing!

Chen Han opened his mouth, "This works?"

Outside the Chen family compound, the younger uncle was already leading the workshop staff in planting viburnum trees.

In the courtyard of the clansmen, one can also see clansmen moving potted plants and climbing flowers.

The Chen family had placed orders with the flower and plant base in Linhe County more than once, so the delivery speed was very fast this time as well.

At this pace, we should be able to finish by the day after tomorrow.

time flies.

The night passed.

When Chen Han opened his eyes the next day, the low-level spirit stone in his hand had been completely drained of its spiritual energy and had turned into an ordinary jade stone without any spiritual energy.

He only has one low-level spirit stone left in his warehouse. If this one is used up, he will have to rely on special spirit caves from now on.

The key issue is that this one spirit stone isn't enough to support him in opening up another of the eight extraordinary meridians.

He felt the game system should be more sensible and reward him with a few more spirit stones.

After getting up and washing up, Chen Han went down to the yard and saw the starlight floating inside the Moon-Gazing Rabbit's cage; the Moon-Gazing Sand had appeared again.

They put away the Moon Gazing Sand and then headed to the special spiritual cave. The second layer of the outer wall of flowers and plants around the pavilion had now mostly grown up, obscuring the inside, making it difficult to see the pavilion clearly from the outside.

Chen Han entered, where his junior sister and uncle had arrived first. After exchanging greetings, they sat cross-legged and waited for the spiritual energy to cleanse them.

After finishing his cultivation, he found himself alone in the pavilion as always, with a series of notifications in his mind indicating an increase in his willpower.

The people in the clan have already finished their morning prayers.

When he went back to his uncle's kitchen to prepare the medicinal meal, he also sent a message to his junior sister, asking her to bring some aloe vera and olive oil over later.

I promised the girls who sell lobsters yesterday that I'd give them some scar removal cream, so I need to make it.

On the way to my uncle's kitchen, I saw the excitement of the passing clansmen.

"Have you seen the salary sheet posted in the family group chat? How much is the salary?"

"My job is picking bamboo leaves. My base salary is 7500 + 500 for full attendance bonus + 1500 for bonus, totaling 9500!"

“You earn more than me. We only make 8000 in the workshop: a base salary of 6000 plus 500 for full attendance and 1500 for bonus.”

"It's alright. Although your workshop was busy last month, it was much easier than ours."

"..."

The wages for June have been calculated. Most of the clan members worked a full month last month, so the total amount due to full attendance bonuses and other benefits is quite substantial.

Of course, not every department receives such a large bonus; it depends on the situation and is calculated by Chen Xiaoyan's team.

Chen Xiaoyan has now compiled the salary information and sent it to the family group chat.

This is actually normal. Many companies pay salaries at different times, but you can usually see the salary statistics at the beginning of the month, and then just wait for the payday.

So today, everyone in the Chen family was all smiles. They really hadn't expected that perfect attendance and bonuses would amount to so much.

When I was working away from home, I never had such a good opportunity.

Now I am increasingly grateful to have returned, and even more grateful to that family head.

Several excited clansmen stopped respectfully to greet Chen Han upon seeing him.

Chen Han nodded in response and began preparing the medicinal cuisine in his uncle's kitchen. Just as he finished preparing the medicinal cuisine, Xiao Yu came over with aloe vera and olive oil. He also picked up the prepared spirit flower powder and started making a scar removal cream.

...

county.

Chu Ping and Chen Kai would get together as soon as they got to work.

"Director Chen, how's the investigation going?" Chu Ping asked as soon as they met.

This is what he cares about most right now.

Chen Kai shook his head and said, "I didn't find any useful information. I checked the county annals and looked back, but there was no record of Baihua Palace. However, I did find some resources, but I don't know if they are related to Baihua Palace."

As he spoke, he handed over a stack of documents.

"Let's go to the Chen family and see how the Chen family head is preparing." Chu Ping took the documents and went out, planning to review them on the way to the Chen family.

What he wants to know most right now is about that stone tablet. He has a feeling that the stone tablet is definitely not simple.

As the car set off for the Chen family's headquarters, Chen Kai saw his superiors looking at the documents, so he also took out his phone and silently scrolled through Douyin videos to see if there was any news about the Chen family today.

Currently, online discussions about tourism in Linhe County are primarily focused on the Chen family.

A video he saw today surprised him: "Take your boyfriend/girlfriend to the Chen family's place, and you'll find out if he/she is marriage material."

This surprised him. The Chen family did not worship the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Venerable, nor were they the Matchmaker God.

He was truly stunned after watching the video. Could it really be like this?
A girl saw her boyfriend fall three times in a row at Chen's, and she thought it was bad luck for him at Chen's because he was cheating on her.

The key issue is that the man really cheated on her, and it seems that the girl herself is the other woman.

Chen Kai was stunned. Are people these days so good at having fun?
When he saw the comments in the video's comment section, he was even more astonished:

"The Chen Family Travel Couples Group is now recruiting! Join Qingfeng Travel now for a 8% discount!"

"China Tourism, Chen Family Tour Couples Group Now Recruiting..."

"..."

He felt that Chen's area would soon see another small peak in tourists.

While others go through great lengths to promote tourism, Chen managed to attract attention and then tourists through such a bizarre method.

Not long after, the two arrived at the Chen family's residence and met Chen Han again.

"Welcome, leaders." Chen Han greeted the two with a broad smile.

After Chu Ping sat down, he couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch Chen, after a whole night, have you investigated the condition of this stone tablet and the dust-removing array? Could it really have special and mysterious abilities like in the movies?"

Chen Han smiled and replied as always, "Chu County, that's all nonsense. We should still believe in science. However, I have already found a suitable location for the monument and chosen a date for it to be erected tomorrow afternoon."

Chu Ping felt helpless when he heard this person immediately declare their belief in science, but when he heard that the other party had already found the location for the monument and even chosen the date, he smiled.

He didn't believe that the Chen family head truly believed in science as he claimed.

However, since Patriarch Chen had already said he believed in science, he didn't dwell on the topic any further. Instead, he asked, "Patriarch Chen, did you really make up the Hundred Flowers Palace that you mentioned in the video?"

"Yes," Chen Han replied with a smile.

You can't just say it was written by the game system and that he copied the game system.

Chu Ping said, "Chen Kai investigated some ancient county records and found that during the Qing Dynasty, a group called the White Flower Sect came to Linhe County and even visited the Chen family. Do you think this was the Hundred Flowers Palace? After all, there were some communication problems at that time due to differences in accents, dialects, and writing systems, so the Hundred Flowers Palace was recorded as the White Flower Sect?"

"Uh! I don't think so?" Chen Han really didn't expect that these two leaders were so concerned about this stone tablet, and even wanted to find traces of Baihua Palace in the history of Linhe County.

Moreover, he was certain that the White Flower Sect was not the Hundred Flowers Palace; it might be an evil cult, possibly a branch like the White Lotus Sect.

Having not received any definite information from Chen Han, Chu Ping and Chen Kai inquired about the situation regarding the erection of the monument. Chen Han then led the two out of the Chen family compound to the location where the monument was to be erected.

Upon arriving here, Chu Ping and Chen Kai were quite surprised to see the grove of magnolia trees; it could practically be called a forest.

"These are magnolia trees donated by tourists? There are so many!" Chu Ping was full of surprise. Moreover, he discovered that the Chen family was planting even more magnolia trees, and even other kinds of flowering plants were planted around the magnolia grove.

This interwoven scene, once all these flowers are in full bloom, will definitely be very attractive, especially the flowers of the viburnum tree, which are very beautiful.

With the addition of these flowers as embellishments, the beauty would be enhanced even further, making it an attractive attraction.

It's a pity that the magnolia tree has already passed its flowering period; it won't bloom again until next year.
