With a hint of curiosity, Chen Changfan tried to pour a drop of marrow fluid on the tip of his tongue.

The little lizard and the Nether Crocodile were both looking at it eagerly. Obviously they knew that this was a good thing and were also looking forward to it in their hearts.

Chen Changfan closed his eyes silently, quietly feeling the sweetness spreading from the tip of his tongue, and immediately all the drowsiness in his body disappeared.

Especially his arms, which had been tense and exerting force just now. Not only did the soreness and muscle tearing sensation disappear, but he felt a cool and comfortable energy flowing into his arms, which made him feel that his arms were much stronger.

He looked around and came to a huge rock weighing 200 kilograms. He exerted force with his arms and actually moved the rock off the ground.

200 pounds!

I still remember that before, he had a hard time moving a giant bony fish weighing more than 200 kilograms, but today he could actually lift a -kilogram stone in one go.

Could it be that this marrow fluid can also strengthen the body and make the physical fitness even stronger?

He has been taking the snake bone and lotus root soup these days, but the effect is not as good as before.

After all, the soup is mainly used to repair hidden diseases and injuries, and it has no obvious effect on increasing strength.

As he gradually went deeper into the mountains, his need for strength became more urgent.

Especially arm strength. The stronger the arm strength, the more powerful the longbow can be pulled.

A heavy bow with heavy arrows is almost indestructible!

By then, even if you encounter a scary man-bear, you can kill it with arrows!

After drinking a drop, Chen Changfan still felt a little unsatisfied, but he was very restrained and did not continue taking it.

The energy contained in this marrow fluid is extremely pure. If you take too much at one time, it would be counterproductive.

After all, the Netherworld Crocodile lying before him was a living example.

After putting away the small bottle, Chen Changfan was in a good mood.

This time, not only did he subdue the Nether Crocodile directly, but he also obtained the marrow fluid that can strengthen the body.

Moreover, he suddenly realized the method of taming beasts, which is simply a magical skill for a hunter who deals with wild beasts all year round.

In addition, wolfskin and butterfly grass are also very rare harvests.

But compared with that miniature coal mine, this is not a treasure of the same magnitude.

I don’t know how much coal reserves the mine has, but mining thousands of tons shouldn’t be a problem.

After all, this is an open-pit coal mine, which can greatly save mining costs, and its value is really difficult to estimate.

However, if large-scale mining is to be carried out, in addition to requiring a large number of workers, the mountain should be purchased in advance. Otherwise, by the time you have dug the mine, others will come and take advantage of it.

Moreover, his shelter is in this cave, so it is legitimate for him to claim this mountain as his own.

"Go back and ask Mr. Chai how much it would cost to buy a mountain."

He now has less than four hundred taels of money in his hand, and he estimates that there is still some distance between him and the money needed to buy the mountain, but it shouldn't be much.

He also caught some fish from the underground river and fed them all to the Nether Crocodile. Seeing that the Nether Crocodile was eating with relish, the little lizard also picked up a fish and began to chew it with gusto.

Chen Changfan signaled the two beasts to guard the place, then climbed up the rope and crawled towards the ground.

After a while, Chen Changfan climbed out of the pit and saw the setting sun casting a large shadow across the mountains and forests.

"We'll find a way to buy this hilltop tomorrow, and then we can start construction."

He silently memorized the location of the pit, then took the pony and walked down the mountain.

……

Qingshan County, Fangshi.

"The fish has been killed, take care!"

Old Wei had just seen off the last customer, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and couldn't help but grin.

"I made five taels of silver today. The fish stall business is getting better and better!"

Aunt Liu's hearty laughter came from the side. "Business at the noodle stall is good today. We sold a full 300 bowls!"

Just when the two were feeling happy, Chief Qian came up with a few fast-moving yamen runners and kicked over the wooden barrel on the ground, splashing the smelly dirty water all over Old Wei.

"Master Qian, what do you mean by this?" Old Wei's eyes were filled with anger, but because of the other party's status as the master, he suppressed his anger and asked.

"What do you mean? Humph!" Qian Ke snorted coldly, the fat on his face trembling. "Now all the vendors in the city are donating money to the bandit suppression, but only your Chenji Fish Stall and this snail noodle stall are not willing to contribute a penny. Your business is obviously booming, but you are not willing to contribute even a copper coin. Aren't you deliberately opposing the County Magistrate?"

Old Wei angrily said, "Since it's a donation, it's voluntary. If we want to donate, we donate. If we don't want to donate, we don't donate. Don't talk to me about the county magistrate!"

"Well, a mere vendor dares to disrespect the County Magistrate. Brothers, knock his stall down!"

Qian Ke is now under the guise of suppressing bandits, and with the support of Boss Shang and the county magistrate behind him, he has suddenly become very powerful.

In fact, few of these vendors are willing to donate money, so Qian Ke can't smash all the stalls at once. If he does that, will the market still be able to open?

But even if he couldn't collect the money, Qian Ke had many ways to make the merchants hand over the silver.

Today he brought the yamen runners to take action against Chen Ji Fish Stall, with the purpose of killing the chicken to scare the monkey.

The yamen runners received instructions from the county magistrate to fully cooperate with Boss Shang's donation plan, and Qian Ke was Boss Shang's boss in the market, so they all followed Qian Ke's lead, which made him very arrogant.

"Smash this fish stall and that stinking noodle stall!"

Qian Ke shouted at the top of his voice.

The yamen runners came forward one by one and started smashing and destroying things. Old Wei and Aunt Liu tried their best to stop them, and they were so anxious that they were about to cry.

This is their livelihood, how can they be willing to let it be smashed like this?

"Master Qian, wait a minute! Let me go back and discuss the donation with my boss. I'll give you a reply tomorrow, okay?"

Seeing that his hard work was about to be destroyed, Lao Wei had no choice but to beg Qian Ke in a humble manner.

As he said that, Lao Wei took out the money he had brought with him and prepared to give some money to Qian Ke to slow down the matter.

Qian Ke glanced at the purse, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he reached out to grab the purse.

"You still want me to wait until tomorrow? If you don't donate the money today, get out of this market immediately!"

At this moment, a strong hand reached out and firmly grasped Qian Ke's wrist.

Qian Ke felt as if he was being clamped by an iron clamp, and the bones in his wrist seemed to be crushed. The pain made him roll his eyes.

He turned his head and glared, only to meet a cold and gloomy gaze, and his heart suddenly panicked for some reason.

Chen Changfan sneered at Qian Ke and said, "Master Qian, you have such great authority! I want to see how you can get us out of this market."

As he spoke, he exerted a little force with his hands and pushed Qian Ke to the ground. His round body rolled on the ground for several times like a ball before stopping with his four limbs facing the sky.

"You even dare to hit the head of the neighborhood. Are you tired of living?"

When the yamen runners saw that Qian Ke was beaten, they immediately surrounded him and reached out to grab Chen Changfan's shoulders.
