Chapter 91: The Vacation Is Over

In the next few days, Li Xuan was basically on the road traveling back and forth between Tian Dou City and Chunqiu Winery every day.

After five or six hard days, he finally completed the procurement of all the supplies needed by everyone in the estate.

The purchased building materials are enough to finish constructing the entire estate, and the food procured can sustain over a thousand slaves for ten years.

These supplies are sufficient to keep the Winery running normally for several years, so Li Xuan no longer needs to procure large quantities.

After placing the last batch of supplies into the warehouse, Li Xuan finally relaxed, lying exhausted on a sack of grain; the nonstop travel of the past few days had drained all his energy.

Li Xuan suddenly heard footsteps; it was a child, presumably Li Bangchui.

"Bangchui, what are you looking for, brother?" Li Xuan asked Li Bangchui.

"Brother, I have bad news: your vacation is over; the day marked on the calendar has arrived," Bangchui's babyish voice came from behind Li Xuan.

Li Xuan froze in place upon hearing Bangchui's words; he hadn't expected time to pass so quickly.

"Sigh, Bangchui, how could you bring such bad news? I don't want to go to school," Li Xuan covered his face, unwilling to accept the fact.

"By the way, Bangchui, do you want to go to school? You can make many friends there," Li Xuan suddenly turned his head and asked Li Bangchui.

"I… I don't want to, I'm scared!" Li Bangchui lowered his head, nervously saying to Li Xuan; it seemed the little fellow was still very timid.

Originally, Li Xuan had considered taking Bangchui out to school to meet more people and make friends, which would also increase the little fellow's understanding of humans and thereby boost his cultivation speed.

Moreover, Li Xuan had thought that at Lanba Academy one rarely encounters any Title Douluo; while possible, the chance is small, so Li Xuan felt confident about taking Bangchui to school.

Li Xuan had also asked Bangchui about his past, but Bangchui stubbornly refused to reveal anything, so Li Xuan stopped probing and thus does not know what Bangchui experienced before and during Transformation Form that made him so timid.

However, since Bangchui now doesn't want to go to school, Li Xuan can avoid some trouble; having Bangchui continue cultivating in Chunqiu Winery is also a good thing.

With Douluo Number One and the Yunling Pill's boost, Bangchui's cultivation speed will not be too slow.

"Fine, then stay in the Winery to cultivate. Here are enough Alchemy Pills for you for the next two months; within two months I should be able to return," Li Xuan took out of the Void Pearl two large bottles, each containing two hundred Yunling Pill, and handed them to Li Bangchui.

"Thank you, brother!" Li Bangchui happily expressed his gratitude to Li Xuan.

"Take the Alchemy Pills to the Dan Room, then come with me to go out for a walk," Li Xuan waved his hand with a smile at Li Bangchui and then left the warehouse.

Stepping out of the warehouse, there was a bright corridor; on both sides of the walls hung stones that emitted light, illuminating the passage brilliantly.

This is Li Xuan's Underground Warehouse, consisting of twelve rooms, over a thousand square meters, three stories high; it stores two thousand tons of grain, enough to feed these people for ten years.

In the past half month, the Yellow Turban Warrior has completed the underground portion of Chunqiu Winery.

Besides the grain store, the most important part of the basement is the Wine Cellar; its space is three times that of the grain store, three stories high, covering three thousand square meters, capable of storing a large amount of wine.

There are also Li Xuan's private Treasure Room, Alchemy Room, Dan Room, Medicine Room, and Seed Storage Room…

Among them are many Secret Chambers, known only to the Yellow Turban Warrior and Li Xuan.

At this moment the Yellow Turban Warrior is excavating tunnels to connect the Winery with the surrounding villages and also to create an escape route.

Next, Li Xuan left the underground and arrived at a village surrounding Chunqiu Winery.

The village overseer, seeing Li Xuan arrive, immediately jogged to his front. "Master, you're here," the overseer knelt before Li Xuan and said respectfully.

"Stand up, make a quick trip, and summon the overseers of the other villages here; I have business with you," Li Xuan said bluntly to the overseer.

"Yes, master, I'll gather them right away," the overseer bowed his head to Li Xuan, then stood and jogged away.

Li Xuan did not enter the village, but found a shady spot for himself and rested.

Bangchui sat beside Li Xuan, taking out a small fan to cool him.

After a dozen minutes, eight overseers of varying height, weight, and build arrived before Li Xuan.

"Salutations, master!" the eight overseers knelt simultaneously and bowed to Li Xuan.

"Stand up, report the progress of land reclamation in your village," Li Xuan cleared his throat, sat upright, and looked at the overseers with an expressionless gaze.

These overseers are all slaves, and Li Xuan sees no need to give them a favorable attitude; being too kind to them can easily cause other problems.

"Master, Shui Village is responsible for three hundred Hundred Mu of fields; two hundred Hundred Mu need reclamation, and so far only eighty‑nine Hundred Mu have been reclaimed."

"Feng Village is the same, but the cultivated good fields amount to ninety‑six Hundred Mu."

……

The other six villages have similar progress, each under one hundred Hundred Mu.

"In half a month, reclaiming this much land is already good. Here is a booklet for you; have the literate villagers teach you how to make the soil fertile. In the future I'll plant something that requires fertile land, so you must carefully tend these good fields, understand?" Li Xuan snorted, speaking to the overseers.

"Understood, master," the overseers bowed again to Li Xuan.

"It's autumn now, and sowing is no longer possible, so this year's main goal is land reclamation and fertilizing. I'll be away for a while; during that time, any questions should go to Bangchui. While I'm absent, he can fully represent me," Li Xuan pointed at Bangchui and said to the overseers.

Li Xuan has already arranged everything, so problems are unlikely; if something does go wrong, there's nothing that can be done.

Bangchui is the being Li Xuan brought out to sit in the Winery; of course, Li Xuan doesn't expect Bangchui to decide anything, he merely serves as a mascot.

"Alright, the matters have been explained; I'm leaving now. I'll return after a while. Those who do well will be rewarded, those who don't will be punished!" Li Xuan snorted, then waved his hand to dismiss the overseers.

Then, Li Xuan took Li Bangchui to the Stable of Chunqiu Winery and skillfully harnessed a carriage.

"Bangchui, while I'm away from home, you must cultivate seriously and aim to break through Ten-level Cultivation early, manifesting the first Soul Ring," Li Xuan patted Bangchui's head, then hopped onto the carriage, ready to depart.

"Brother, stay safe and come back soon," Li Bangchui waved his hand at Li Xuan and said loudly.

Li Xuan smiled, waved his hand, and then drove the carriage back toward Lanba Academy.

After all, the vacation is over.

It truly played out a scene of a domineering CEO being hauled back to school.
