Chapter 69

The plan Jiang Yan and Little Ganyu discussed began implementation the next day.

The people of the original Qingce Village were somewhat uneasy.

Because although they knew the immortal named Little Ganyu was very gentle.

Their first impression of the Wood Spirit Immortal Lord was not good.

Especially since they had initially given the Immortal Lord the nickname "Man-Eating Immortal Lord."

This made some villagers lose sleep and appetite.

But as the decrees were implemented, the people gradually put their hearts at ease.

Jiang Yan not only treated everyone equally in the policies, but also frequently came to the fields to observe their farming conditions.

Seeing the people wearing thin, tattered clothes in weather that had not yet grown hot, the next evening he brought a large pile of neat and warm clothes and handed them over.

You ask where Jiang Yan got these clothes from?

Uh... you don't need to ask Jiang Yan.

Just look at the green smoke rising in the distance to know.

Jiang Yan went directly to wipe out a tribe of a Demon God.

Sometimes he even brought food, eating with them while discussing where there were problems and what needed improvement, and so on.

Usually, in places where unreasonable problems appeared, Jiang Yan would resolve them on that day or the next.

This caused the people living in Qingce Village to gradually come to love and respect this Immortal Lord who got things done and was benevolent to his own people.

Under Jiang Yan's protection, the people of Qingce Village felt a peaceful and tranquil life they had not experienced for nearly ten years.

Some even thanked Jiang Yan and voluntarily set up a longevity tablet for the Immortal Lord in their homes, worshipping it daily.

Of course, Jiang Yan did not know about these things.

Whether governing the region or caring for the people, Jiang Yan was actually following a widely circulated saying from his previous life.

【If you keep the people in your heart, the people will lift you high.】

The Immortal Lord's reputation was thoroughly established in the area around Qingce Village.

People from nearby tribes envied the life of Qingce Village residents and also envied them for having a kind and benevolent Immortal Lord to protect them.

But the Demon Gods scoffed at the people's thoughts.

Hah, kind and benevolent?

When he arrived riding the Great Buddha, I didn't see him being kind and benevolent!

Thus, as the quality of life for the people of Qingce Village improved, Jiang Yan's reputation in the nearby area reached a Terrifying Layer.

Many humans crossed mountains and rivers just to squeeze into Qingce Village, hoping to receive the Immortal Lord's protection and enjoy such a peaceful and beautiful life.

Yes, the mindset of the people in this era was simply that.

They just wanted to enjoy a peaceful life.

But in this age of war, such a thing was so luxurious.

As the number of people grew, Qingce Village gradually reached a state of being overcrowded.

The Millelith restored the professional military system, no longer engaging in farming, but needing to begin managing the safety of the people in Qingce Village.

But while the Millelith were fine at fighting, when it came to these civil disputes, Jiang Yan still intended to let professionals handle them.

He directly transferred a portion of the Millelith Guards from Guili Plains.

With the arrival of the Millelith Guards, the governance of Qingce Village improved significantly.

During this period, Jiang Yan also received a letter from Lady Guizhong.

"Morax has already handled the matter of the Dunyu Bell and returned to Guili Plains; he has signed a contract with Havria."

Regarding the matter of Havria, Lady Guizhong was very supportive.

As the Grand Steward of Guili Plains, Lady Guizhong immediately realized the importance of the Authority of Salt for people's livelihood.

With Havria's addition, the salt issue was directly resolved.

Furthermore, through Havria's Authority, Guili Plains opened commercial trade regarding salt with surrounding tribes.

Thus, five years passed in the blink of an eye.

After five years of recuperation and growth, the appearance of Qingce Village was completely renewed.

Golden rice fields emitted an enticing fragrance, and happiness smiled on the faces of the people.

"Hey, hey! Did you hear? The Immortal Lord is on the mountain to the east today!"

"Really or not!"

"Really! I saw it with my own eyes, how could I lie to you?"

"Nonsense! I saw the Immortal Lord today too! He was clearly on the mountain to the north!"

"How is that possible?"

As the sun set, a group of villagers walked along the smooth road, heading toward their own village, chatting and laughing all the way.

Since two years ago, Jiang Yan had not appeared much beside the villagers.

Qingce Village had already restored normal order, so naturally Jiang Yan had to begin his plan!

That was, the Qingce Village Chest Clearing Plan!

To be honest, the days without seeing the Immortal Lord were still somewhat unfamiliar to the people.

What is more secure than having the Immortal Lord by your side?

There was even a time when a craze to find the Immortal Lord swept through this group of people.

Forced by the situation, Jiang Yan could only appear and explain.

This made Little Ganyu beside him laugh at him for a long time.

And what is Jiang Yan doing right now?

"You little brat, stop right there!"

A furious shout echoed from the mountains.
