The man who has traveled through time and space for a long time is so scary
Chapter 422: Recluse in Jingnan Mountain
Jingnan Mountain, far away in the land of Min Yue, is said to have been a primitive and sparsely populated land.
The ancestors of the Lu family somehow knew that for thousands of years there had been a reclusive family that successfully avoided the world here, and their descendants flourished and spread far and wide to the island countries in Southeast Asia.
Although this is just a legend, Jingnan Mountain is still a good place to retreat from the world. So the Lu family left the Central Plains and went through hardships to live in seclusion in Jingnan Mountain in Minyue.
They followed the locals in clearing mountains and splitting rocks, expanding streams and diverting rivers, planting rock tea, planting fruit trees, shooting wild animals, and getting rid of vicious dogs. Gradually, they integrated into the lives of the locals. Their family's tea gardens of thousands of acres were built between the mountains. The originally barren Jingnan Mountain has undergone several generations of changes and has become a paradise of fertile fields and beautiful ponds. The secret craftsmanship of the Lu family has also been secretly inherited here.
"Yao'er, when you learned the family inheritance, you said you would go out to travel, but you didn't expect that you would be gone for ten years. During this period, the family has also undergone many changes, and some members of the family have moved out. Even your uncle's family has moved to a small island by the sea, and it is said that they own several fishing boats." The elder is already in his 80s, but his mental state is still good. He speaks slowly and sighs deeply as he looks at the young Lu Yao who is sitting respectfully in front of him. The family skills are all inherited by Yao'er. Yao'er lost his parents when he was young, and grew up alone without any worries. It is because of this that he can concentrate on studying skills. Today's Lu family is a hodgepodge of agriculture, fishery, industry and commerce, but he has also completed the entrustment of several generations and allowed the clan to survive!
"Elder, Yaoer knows well that times are difficult in this world, especially for large families. Our clansmen have already taken root here, and it is not appropriate to talk about letting them leave their homes again. Yaoer has been thinking about it for a few days before he proposed to take away some clansmen who have craftsmanship. In order to avoid separation of their families, we must take their families away and settle them down. I ask the elder to give Yaoer some advice." Lu Yao stayed at the elder's house for a few days after he returned to the tribe. He no longer had a separate home here. He brought his men back to the tribe, which caused a sensation among the clansmen in the first few days, but then everyone went about their own business.
Lu Yao was low-key enough, and used a few days to understand the living conditions of the tribe members. Unfortunately, the great uncle he wanted to meet the most had left the tribe and became a fisherman. Lu Yao guessed that his uncle's fishing boats were probably built by themselves, and he didn't know how they were doing. It would be great if he could find them.
"Yao'er, come with me tomorrow and see if you can convince a few young men who are still single. You don't need to settle their families, so it will be convenient for you to travel with them. It won't be a big family migration and it won't be a big deal." The old man is still the wisest. The elder of the clan listed all the bachelors in the clan as target persons right away.
"..." Lu Yao was speechless. He couldn't refute the elder's words. Unless they couldn't survive, who would be willing to drag their family along with them to face an unknown future? It's different for bachelors. They can't get married if they stay at home. Why not go out and try their luck? ! The elder had a good plan. The beads on the abacus were so bright that they bounced into people's faces.
"We don't want people with bad character, people with poor skills, people who are lazy and greedy, people with ugly looks..." Lu Yao figured it out, and he bluntly put forward many unacceptable conditions.
"You? You? You? What else do craftsmen need in appearance?!" The elder pointed at Lu Yao with a trembling finger. His hand was shaking very frequently, and half of the reason was because he was angry. He had lived for more than eighty years, and he had never heard that a craftsman had a requirement for appearance!? It was really rare!
"Grandpa elder, what do you think of the people I brought back? Every one of them is a heroic and brave man. If I don't make any demands, I'm afraid my brothers and sisters will feel inferior!" Lu Yao grinned, not afraid at all whether the elder was really angry or pretending to be angry. Once people let go of it, they will become thick-skinned.
"You little brat, you don't feel inferior to others, so why should they feel inferior to others?" The clan elder glared at Lu Yao angrily, then turned his head and ignored him.
"Hehe, my face is okay, elder, you can take a rest! I will go with you tomorrow, and I will leave in two days. I also want to go see my uncle." Lu Yao said with a smile. He even shamelessly touched his not-so-outstanding face. He already has a family, and his face is not that important.
"Hmph, go! Go! Go! Go away." The clan elder waved his hand to let Lu Yao leave without even looking at him. Then the old man sat on the bed and thought for a long time as if he was in a trance. At the end he sighed deeply.
Although the tribe survived, they lived a very difficult life. In this chaotic world, they could only huddle in the mountains and rely on farming to barely make a living. However, the sales of tea were not good. The price of tea purchased by merchants was repeatedly lowered, resulting in the low price of tea, and the tea farmers were miserable. It would be a good thing if Yaoer could lead some people to find a new way out. But the foundation of the family must not be shaken. Once there is a change, various problems will follow. I am old and just want stability. Yaoer is still young and it is difficult for him to bear the responsibility of the rise and fall of the family. He only needs to pass on the family's craftsmanship!
Lu Yao returned to his room and Hong Yi was already waiting. Hong Yi had been elusive these days and was often not seen. Lu Yao told him about the difficulties he encountered, and Hong Yi began to come out to see him more often.
"Sixth Young Master, I have already told the boss about our current situation. I think someone will come to help us soon." Hong Yi said this to reassure the Sixth Young Master. In fact, he had already asked his men to set up a contact point here. There are abundant tea resources here, so why not make use of them? Therefore, whether the boss has given instructions or not, he has paved the way. Tea merchants will be the best identity cover for their people.
"That's good. I will go with the elders to select people tomorrow. You can have someone check the selected people. I want to go to the seaside to find my uncle the day after tomorrow. If he is doing well, we can let them make a living here. We can set up a contact station with him. If he is having a hard time, I will take them away. Although our rivers are not as vast as the sea, there are also infinite possibilities." Lu Yao is eyeing his uncle's shipbuilding technology. He has to meet him in person before deciding whether to take people back. It must be said that Lu Yao has also gradually developed a mind for the overall situation. He also thought about setting up contact points, but he is still watching and taking one step at a time and has not implemented it.
"My lord, you are wise. I will arrange it as soon as possible!" Hong Yi said and left the room. He still needed to speed up the completion of the task before leaving.
