The layout of Yancheng is similar to that of the ancient feudal cities in China, with a distinction between inner and outer areas. The outer roads are muddy and the houses are low. The residents living here are all raggedly dressed and pale and thin. They looked at Zhu Yuncheng with panic in their eyes.

The roads in the inner city were paved with stones, the houses were magnificent, and the people passing by were dressed in gorgeous clothes with greasy faces. They looked at Zhu Yuncheng with curiosity in their eyes.

Zhu Yuncheng's eyes were calm, without any emotion. In his mind, no matter whether it was the Yancheng common people in the outer layer or the Yancheng nobles in the inner city, they would all become cheap labor in the future.

In the Salt God’s Palace, Zhu Yuncheng met the Salt God.

This beautiful girl with white hair, blue eyes, wearing a pure white robe and sitting barefoot on the throne reminded Zhu Yuncheng of an old friend.

"King Guili?" The Salt God Heuliah spoke in a gentle and leisurely voice, "Have you solved the issue of the Snow Mountain?"

Zhu Yuncheng bowed and said, "I have lived up to the trust of the Salt God. The disaster on the snowy mountain has been completely resolved by my master and me."

Heuliah's eyes flashed with surprise: "It's solved. That's great. Thank you very much."

Zhu Yuncheng never pulled the Salt God into the alliance with the three demon gods of Guiliyuan. This gentle demon god will not be of any use in the future demon war, but her fate can be changed. Istaru said that Inazuma's lightning is really useful, so we can look forward to it.

He went on to say, "This time, in addition to telling Lord Salt God about this matter, I also want to communicate with the Human King of Salt City."

At this time, the young man standing next to the Salt God said, "My father is in poor health. If you have anything to discuss with me, please do so."

"Fell ill at this time?" Zhu Yuncheng thought to himself, thinking that he must have really fallen ill. After all, people in this era were not so cunning, so he asked directly: "What's your name?"

"reasonable."

"Mingli, how much food do you have left in Yancheng?"

Mingli was stunned: "I don't know."

Zhu Yuncheng: "...then let your people who are responsible for controlling food come here."

Mingli shook his head: "We don't have such people."

Zhu Yuncheng was speechless: "Where do you usually store your food?"

"I don't know." Mingli still shook his head, which gave Zhu Yuncheng a headache. He realized that the young man in front of him was a second-generation who didn't care about anything, so he changed the topic and asked, "So how is your food recently? Is there any change?"

“Nothing has changed.”

"............." Zhu Yuncheng's heart was dead, and he also realized that these nobles in Yancheng didn't care about the lives of ordinary people at all, but only cared about their own quality of life. And Salt God, don't you see that your people are starving?

"Cough cough cough, Mingxi, meet the Lord God of Salt." A coughing sound came from behind. Zhu Yuncheng turned around and saw Mingxi walking in with someone's support.

"Mingxi, you, you are old." Heulia stood up and used the power of the devil to protect Mingxi's body. "What are you doing here?"

Zhu Yuncheng was speechless again, but when he thought about it, it seemed that for the immortal Salt God, he was already accustomed to the birth, aging, sickness and death of human beings so there was no longer any ripples.

"Lord Salt God, I am old but not useless. After a while, I will pass the throne of the Human King to my child." Mingxi's complexion has improved a lot with the nourishment of the demon god's power. Just now, when he heard the news that the Human King Guili had entered Yancheng on his hospital bed, he struggled to get up immediately and came to meet Zhu Yuncheng.

"Sensible, is he just a second-generation?" Zhu Yuncheng complained in his heart.

"King Guiliren, what do you want to talk to me about?" Mingxi asked with a cough.

Zhu Yuncheng looked at Mingli, who quickly repeated what he had just said. Mingxi frowned slightly and said, "King Guili, if we exclude your 20,000 troops, the food in Yancheng will be enough for all the people to eat for three months."

The old man is honest and it seems that he has been frightened by my Thousand Rocks Army.

In this case, Zhu Yuncheng was too lazy to beat around the bush: "Three months, but now it is winter, which means it is time for spring plowing, and you will have no food to eat in Yancheng."

Mingxi coughed: "When the time comes, I can only use salt to exchange for food from you, the King of Guili."

Zhu Yuncheng smiled and said, "But we in Guiliji are not short of salt now. The five million kilograms of salt you provide every year will be enough for Guiliji to use. We don't need you to exchange salt for anything."

Mingxi looked at Zhu Yuncheng in confusion: "So, what do you want?"

Zhu Yuncheng explained: "King of Yancheng, although we in Guili do not lack salt, we lack other things."

"What is it?" Mingxi asked hurriedly. It was a fact that Yancheng was short of food, and the only solution was to exchange food from Guili.

Zhu Yuncheng did not hesitate and immediately asked Qianyan Army to introduce porcelain, rattan baskets and other handicrafts, saying: "These are the handicrafts that Guiliji urgently needs at this stage. They are all made by humans themselves. If you agree, I will send some people here to teach you how to make such handicrafts. You can buy Guiliji in exchange for Mora, and then buy food or other things you need."

Mingxi tried to open his eyes wide, looking at the handmade products he had never seen before: "Can humans make these?"

"That's right." Zhu Yuncheng said seriously, "Just like cultivating land, humans can also do it, but the Mora sold for these handmade products is much higher than grain and salt."

"Really?" Mingxi didn't say anything, but his son Mingli spoke first.

"As subjects of the Emperor, not lying is the most basic contract we have made." Zhu Yuncheng said, "How about this? If you agree, I will go back and send craftsmen over now."

Mingxi closed his eyes, thought for a while, and then opened his eyes again: "Do I still have room to refuse?"

Zhu Yuncheng smiled and saluted to the God of Salt: "In that case, I will take my leave first." After that, Zhu Yuncheng turned around and left Yancheng, returning to Guili with the 20,000 Qianyan Army.

After returning to the Human King Palace, Zhu Yuncheng came to the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Ever since Ning Kuan took charge of the Qun Yu Pavilion, Zhu Yuncheng never took the initiative to meet him again, and the latter also never took the initiative to meet Zhu Yuncheng, concentrating on business matters.

Now, seeing Ning Kuan again, this chubby disciple of the immortal, now has a head full of white hair and a fur coat on his shoulders to keep warm. He lowered his eyes, looking at the documents in front of him, and occasionally taking a sip of the teacup beside him.

"Long live the King of Man." When his secretary saw Zhu Yuncheng, he immediately bowed and spoke respectfully.

Ning Kuan's hand trembled, and he looked up at the still young Zhu Yuncheng, and suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"This kid has really made great progress in his cultivation. He can achieve immortality like my master." He muttered to himself, then stood up.

"Ning Pang, don't be polite, just sit down." Zhu Yuncheng walked up to him and pushed him back into the chair.

Ning Kuan was not polite either. He looked at Zhu Yuncheng and continued to complain in his heart: This kid hasn't been here for several years. He must be here for no good reason. Does he want me to do something again?

To his surprise, Zhu Yuncheng sat next to him, looked at Ning Kuan quietly for a while, and then said, "Ning Kuan, do you have any heirs that you like?"

Ning Kuan became serious when he heard Zhu Yuncheng address him in such a formal way: "There are a few."

"Okay, let those people take over your position as the leader of the Qun Yu Pavilion." Zhu Yuncheng nodded, "You can retire and go home to enjoy your life."
