"Director Yun Cheng, I have been here for a year, and it is time for me to go back."

"Uncle Mingyou, be careful on your journey and remember to bring more salt."

Outside Guili City, a black-haired young man in white shirt and black pants waved goodbye to a middle-aged man with gray hair.

Behind the black-haired young man, there were two people, one fat and one thin.

This young man is Zhu Yuncheng, and the two people behind him are naturally his two generals, Zhu Xie and Ning Kuan.

"A year has passed."

Back at the Currency Bureau, Zhu Yuncheng lay in his chair and sighed. He placed his fingers on the table, closed his eyes slightly, tapped the wooden table gently, and began to recall the gains and losses of the past year.

First of all, the immortal's students have basically all successfully opened their minds, with the most opening three acupoints. Those who can be accepted as disciples by the immortal are naturally not ordinary people. In addition, the natural gems are abundant at this stage, so it is certain that all students will successfully open their minds.

After tasting the salt, the people of Guiliji began to go to the currency bureau to buy salt frantically. Forty thousand kilograms of salt were sold out as early as June.

Otherwise, Zhu Yuncheng would not have asked Ming to bring more salt. As for the reason for persuading the God of Salt, it was that he could exchange it for extremely precious jade in Yancheng from Guiliji, which could not only enlighten the people of the God of Salt, but also make a statue of the God of Salt. Although Ming was dissatisfied with the behavior of the God of Salt, he was still grateful and admired him for protecting the people of Yancheng. In addition, using precious jade to make statues was not just the patent of the people of Guiliji.

Just as Zhu Yuncheng was thinking, Ning Kuan and Zhu Xie walked in from outside.

"You're back, how are you doing?" After seeing Ming You off, Zhu Yuncheng asked Zhu Xie and Ning Kuan to promote the four thousand iron farm tools that Hanwu and Yun Lian had sent a few days ago.

Ning Kuan laughed and said, "Reporting to the Director, the farmers who have used the iron farm tools are full of praise and asked us how much we would sell them for. Zhu Xie and I dare not set a price, so we have asked the Kitchen God to collect these iron farm tools and come back later."

Zhu Yuncheng had already anticipated this. Iron items are much more valuable than stone items in every way. "First, send these iron tools to the market near Shimen, and tell the people there that if they are willing to open up new fields, the iron tools will be given to them for free."

“Ah?” Ning Kuan was stunned. “Director, this is not good. These cost us 40,000 Mora!”

"Ning Pangpang, these are just temporary sacrifices. They will be rewarded double in the future," Zhu Yuncheng explained.

Ning Kuan thought for a while and didn't know what Zhu Yuncheng meant by future returns. Seeing that Zhu Yuncheng didn't open his mouth to explain, he controlled his temper.

"By the way, Zhuxie, your child is born, right?" Zhu Yuncheng changed the subject and looked at Zhuxie and asked.

Zhu Xie nodded slightly. Having become a father, he was no longer as aggressive as before. He would immediately start to argue if something did not go his way. Now, he was more reserved: "Reporting to the Director, it is a boy."

"A boy, a boy is good." Zhu Yuncheng said with a smile, then took out three red envelopes from his arms, gave two to Zhu Xie and one to Ning Kuan.

"Why is the director giving us red envelopes again?" Ning Kuan looked at the red envelope in his hand in surprise. He remembered that when he and Zhu Xie celebrated their birthdays, Zhu Yuncheng gave them a red envelope and said it was a blessing.

Zhu Yuncheng explained: "The last time you received a birthday red envelope it was a blessing, this time it's a condolence."

The custom of celebrating birthdays has existed in Guiliji since ancient times.

"Consolation, what new word is this?" Ning Kuan complained in his heart, "Why don't you treat us to a meal? I haven't eaten salt for a long time."

"Director, why do you give me two?" Zhu Xie was puzzled.

"Oh, just think of it as a blessing for your newly born child, wishing him a prosperous life in the future like the red envelope!"

"In that case, why not give one to the Kitchen God as well?"

Zhu Yuncheng: "......"

Does he dare to send it to the Kitchen God?

"Yun Cheng!" Suddenly a familiar voice came from outside.

Zhu Yuncheng and the other two hurried out and saw the three immortals Liuyun, Minghai and Yixiao coming.

"Disciple greets Master..." Before Zhu Yuncheng could finish his words, Liu Yun threw a package in his mouth at Zhu Yuncheng's face, "Use the Wind Summoning Bell to the north of Guiliji. This time, I will be in charge of that area. If you dare to be late, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

After saying this, True Lord Liuyun spread his wings and left.

Minghai and Yixiao looked at each other in surprise, not knowing why Liuyun's attitude towards Zhu Yuncheng had changed. However, the Emperor had already given the order, and they were not allowed to ask any questions. They could only leave with their disciples.

The autumn harvest has begun. When the monsters smell the elemental breath in the mature rice, they will inevitably invade Guiliji in large numbers. Every time this happens, the immortal and his current disciples will go down the mountain to guard various places in Guiliji to prevent the monsters from harming the people.

However, Zhu Yuncheng was unsure about Liu Yun’s attitude towards him and the things she threw at him, and he didn’t know how he had offended her.

Never mind. Let’s think about this matter after the autumn harvest. The most important thing now is to ensure the smooth progress of the autumn harvest.

"Zhuxie, Ningkuan, I'll go first." After saying that, Zhu Yuncheng controlled the wind-calling chime hanging around his waist, took off from the ground, and flew towards the north of Guiliji - during this year, under Liuyun's guidance, Zhu Yuncheng had learned to control the wind-calling chime freely.

-

At this moment, in the northwest of Shimen, outside the farmland near Qingce Village, a dozen immortal students were patrolling and talking.

"I opened the second acupoint a month ago, and it feels much stronger than the first one. Now I can uproot a tree as thick as my waist. Not long ago, I encountered a purple slime and I blew it up with one punch. Hahahaha."

The immortal students no longer have to hold talismans in their hands and face monsters cautiously as they used to. After mastering the jade refining and enlightenment technique, their physical strength and reaction speed have been greatly enhanced. They have some reaction ability when facing sudden attacks from monsters, and can even directly lift boulders weighing tens of pounds to fight back, greatly reducing casualties.

For this reason, they were filled with gratitude towards Zhu Yuncheng, the director of the Currency Bureau who passed on the secret of refining jade to them.

As they were talking, suddenly the oldest of these immortal students stopped.

Seeing him stop, the others stopped as well.

When this stopped, everyone felt something was wrong.

"The ground beneath your feet is shaking?"

The oldest immortal student's expression changed rapidly: "Oh no, it's a rock dragon lizard!"

Hearing the name of Rock Dragon Lizard, all the immortal students turned extremely pale.

The Rock Dragon Lizard evolved from a young Rock Dragon Lizard. It was covered in solid rock armor and could use all kinds of elemental energies. It was far beyond the capability of immortal students like them to fight against, and was basically fought by immortals or their disciples.

However, Yixiaodaotian Zhenjun, who came here to guard, has disappeared to exterminate the monsters!

"How to do?"

"What else can we do? We have to hide first and see how many rock dragon lizards there are. If there are less than three, we should find a way to kill them. If there are more than three, we should let the people run away!" said the older immortal student.

But at this time, the ground beneath his feet was shaking more and more obviously, so much so that the small stones on the ground were shaken into the air half a person's height!

"this?"

"Roar!"

Before the dozen or so immortal students could react, they saw countless smoke and dust on the distant hills, and dozens of rock dragon lizards roaring and rushing towards them.
