Chapter 69 New Land

Before discussing business, private detective Da Boyens asked one thing first: "Madam, with your identity and status, there are many capable people to do things for you. You don't have to ask me to do these three things.

Zhuo Yuling was silent for a moment and replied: "I don't want others to know about the last two things, especially the Lu family."

Da Boyens smiled and said: "The land reclamation work is done for the Lu family, but this is just a cover. The saving and killing people are done for you, madam?"

Zhuo Yuling frowned slightly: "I remember you didn't talk so much before, please tell me the price."

Da Boyens thought for a moment and put a price on the three things Zhuo Yuling proposed:

"The first thing is to open up wasteland. There is a price for it. The piece of land you want is worth three thousand oceans. Needless to say."

Zhuo Yuling nodded and agreed.

Daboyens continued: "The second thing is to find someone. This is very difficult, even harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

If a needle falls into the sea, it won't run around on its own, but your daughter is now avoiding the He family. It's not that easy to find her. "

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yuling felt unhappy, but there was no trace on her face: "Who did you hear that the He family wanted to kill my daughter? What did my daughter do to disgrace the He family?"

Da Boyens smiled and said: "Madam, there is no airtight wall in the world. This matter did not come from me, and you don't need to lose your temper with me. I just want to tell you that this matter is not easy to do."

Zhuo Yuling put out her cigarette and didn't dwell on the topic any more: "Just give me a price, and there's no need to say any more nonsense."

Da Boyens held out a finger: "Ten thousand oceans."

Zhuo Yuling asked: "Is it guaranteed to happen?"

Da Boyens shook his head and said: "If it's not guaranteed, but I can't find anyone, I won't charge you any money."

Zhuo Yuling nodded: "Okay, I'll pay the price you said."

"The third thing is to kill people. To kill this Li Banfeng, it's best to capture him alive..." Da Boyens thought for a moment, "The one alive is worth 20,000 oceans, the dead one is 10,000 oceans."

Zhuo Yuling picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She was silent for a moment and asked, "You need ten thousand oceans to kill a bastard? Do you think this is appropriate?"

She wanted to say how could Li Banfeng's miserable life be compared to Lu Xiaolan's.

But the words remained unsaid.

She would not compare Li Banfeng and her daughter.

In fact, according to the price offered by Da Boyens, Li Banfeng was worth more than her daughter.

Da Boyens looked through the information about Li Banfeng and said to Zhuo Yuling: "I don't know the details of Li Banfeng, and your information is not accurate, which means I have to take a big risk. "

"Why is the information inaccurate?" Zhuo Yuling frowned slightly.

Da Boyens was very patient: "Madam, your information says that Li Banfeng has no cultivation level, but as far as I know, he is an advanced cultivator."

"A cultivator?" Zhuo Yuling didn't believe Da Boyens, "How do you know he is a cultivator?"

Da Boyens smiled and said: "I said I just met him, do you believe it?"

"Have you seen him?" Zhuo Yuling smiled and shook her head.

Naturally, she wouldn't believe this.

Da Boyens did not know Li Banfeng at all, let alone have any contact with Li Banfeng.

Kodak Boyens thought that the person he met on the road just now was Li Banfeng, the man dressed in a coquettish way.

"Your price is too high," Zhuo Yuling lit another cigarette and shook her head, "Li Banfeng is not worth so much money."

"I don't care how much he is worth, but I am worth this price." Da Boyens adjusted his sunglasses.

Zhuo Yuling tried her best to control her emotions, maintaining a soft and lazy smile and said: "Da Binzi, I asked you to come because I thought about the friendship of our acquaintance. You don't know how to advance or retreat."

"Thank you, Madam." Da Boyens took off his hat, bowed again, and then lowered his voice and said, "I call you Madam because I think highly of you. Xiao Lingzi, you have become a rich lady, why are you still like this?" Are you jealous?"

The corners of Zhuo Yuling's eyes trembled, and her eyes showed a cold light: "Spider Bin, please be careful when speaking."

Da Boyens smiled and said: "Gecko Ling, you have to be sensible. If you can afford it, I will help you. If you can't afford it, find someone else."

Zhuo Yuling's expression changed, her laziness and indifference disappeared, replaced by unconcealable anger.

Da Boyens put on his top hat and still had a very gentlemanly smile on his face.

…

Li Banfeng was sitting in the gatehouse of Yujiazhai, chatting with the gatekeeper Lao Zhutou.

Li Banfeng said that he was Yu Nan's friend, and Lao Zhu believed him without any doubt.

"Boss Li, you look like our young shopkeeper's friend. She likes to wear men's clothes just like you."

Wearing men's clothes?

I am a man!

Why is this old man...

Li Banfeng touched his face and felt a smooth feeling.

What is this?

Blush?

Li Banfeng suddenly realized, no wonder the spider in the canyon wanted to call him madam, and the bloody bitch put heavy makeup on his face.

When did she move her hands and why didn't I notice?

"Mr. Zhu, could you please get me a basin of water so I can wash my face."

Lao Zhu is a long-term worker in Yu Nan's family. He joined Yu's family at the age of seventeen and has been working there until today.

Now that he is getting older and the long-term labor can no longer work, Yu Nan did not resign Lao Zhu, but gave him two rooms in Xindi and asked him to help guard Yujiazhai.

The so-called Yujiazhai is two rows of wooden houses, with seven or eight rooms in each row.

These two rows of wooden houses are very special. They are surrounded by endless forests and are pitch black. Only the place where the wooden houses are located is bright.

Li Banfeng looked up at the sky and found a little halo in the night sky, which was projected onto the Yu family's house.

Where did this light come from?

It fell to the ground without excessive divergence. According to Li Banfeng's understanding, there should be a light source with excellent performance and high precision in the sky.

But Lao Zhu's understanding is not like this.

"There was no skylight in the new land. Only after the land was reclaimed, the skylight would shine in."

"Skylight!" Li Banfeng was nervous for a while. He remembered the skylight he had seen.

Old Zhu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "It's not the light of the sky, this is the light that should be in the daytime."

Li Banfeng asked, "Was it pitch black here?"

"Of course not," Old Zhu sighed, "It's not easy for the young shopkeeper to run a cloth shop alone. He saved more than a thousand dollars and spent it all on this new land."

Li Banfeng couldn't understand even more: "Did you buy this land?"

"Buy? Where to buy it?" Old Zhu smiled bitterly, "The young shopkeeper hired six pioneers, each of whom was paid two hundred dollars. Five of the six died, and only then did he open up this land."

"Five of the six died? Can farming kill people?" Li Banfeng was stunned.

Old Zhu explained, "Opening up wasteland is not farming, it means living in the wasteland for three days. The owner first pays tribute and establishes an alliance, and then sends people in to open up wasteland.

The pioneers go in today and come out three days later. As long as there is light on the ground, the owner drips blood to leave a mark, and the land is opened."

What is this process?

Li Banfeng was confused.

After Lao Zhu explained it in detail, Li Banfeng had a better idea.

Yu Nan opened up this wasteland in three steps.

In the first step, Yu Nan brought offerings and offered sacrifices to the gods in the wilderness, and made a covenant with the gods. It is unknown which god she offered sacrifices to.

In the second step, on the day of the covenant, Yu Nan sent pioneers to live in the wasteland for three days and three nights with the offering table. As long as one pioneer survived, the land reclamation was considered successful.

In the third step, Yu Nan returned to the wasteland and left his blood on the ground as a mark, and the land became Yu Nan's.

In terms of the process, Li Banfeng roughly understood it.

But this process is unreasonable.

"Yu Nan hired six people, five of whom died. The last person who survived dripped blood on the wasteland, so wouldn't the wasteland become his?"

Old Zhu shook his head and said, "No, he didn't make a covenant with the gods of this land."

"Isn't it easy to make a covenant? Isn't it enough to put up an offering?"

"It still doesn't work. Our young shopkeeper has made a covenant with the gods of this land. The gods will not accept other people's tributes within three days.

If he makes a covenant in another place, it will be his own land. He has to pay for hiring a pioneer himself. He has to spend a thousand dollars to buy such a piece of wasteland. It depends on whether he is willing to do so."

Li Banfeng still didn't understand: "Since the pioneers are unwilling to buy it themselves, why did Yu Nan spend a lot of money to buy this land?"

Old Zhu sighed and said, "The young shopkeeper wants to leave a way out. No matter who we persuade her, she won't listen."

Li Banfeng didn't ask any more questions. Compared with the land reclamation, he is more concerned about Yu Nan's itinerary now.

"Old Zhu, when will your young shopkeeper come?"

Old Zhu thought for a moment and said, "You said before that they set off last night, and they will arrive tomorrow night at the latest."

"Two days and two nights?"

Old Zhu nodded, "Two days and two nights is fast."

Li Banfeng arrived early.

He was a travel cultivator, and it took him seven hours to get to Xindi.

But Yu Nan didn't have this ability. She also brought a group of subordinates with no cultivation and a pile of heavy belongings. It was really fast to get there in two days.

Old Zhu stood up and said, "Boss Li, I have cleaned up the house for you. Take a shower and rest for a while. I will go to prepare dinner."

When they first met, Li Banfeng just introduced himself briefly, but he didn't expect that Old Zhu didn't doubt him at all.

"Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad guy?" Li Banfeng asked casually.

Old Zhu shook his head: "This is Yujiazhai, this is the territory of the young shopkeeper. The young shopkeeper is protected by the gods. Bad people dare not come here. As long as the young shopkeeper drips blood on Yujiazhai, anyone who dares to break in will be crushed to pieces."

Li Banfeng was stunned: "Is there such a thing?"

...

Yu Nan and his subordinates were still trudging on the road.

This journey was slower than expected, because there were too many wounded soldiers under his command, plus Qin Xiaopang, who was only eating and sleeping, and hardly woke up.

A hundred miles away from Jiangyue Mountain, Yu Nan received news that the old house of the Yu family was burned down.

Although it was expected, everyone was still angry with red eyes. Wang Xuejiao cursed: "Geng Zhiwei, this bastard, must chop him up and feed him to the dogs! Shopkeeper, we won't leave, let's fight him to death!"

A group of people followed and shouted: "Fight them to death!"

"We can't spare Geng Zhiwei, that bastard!"

Yu Nan bit his pipe hard and said nothing.

Zhang Shiquan, the old warehouse manager, advised: "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Let's listen to the shopkeeper and say less."

After walking for more than 30 miles, everyone rested on the side of the road. A clerk came to deliver a letter and panted for a while and said: "Shopkeeper, Geng's medicine store was burned down. Geng Zhiwei's whereabouts are unknown. He must have been burned to death!"

Yu Nan was shocked and speechless.

Geng's medicine store was burned down?

Who did it?
