Chapter 158 The Real 'Treasure Land'

With their consent, I rented a small second-floor building at the headquarters, and opened a "maternity and infant" medical clinic for them, named Jikuntang, for women.Similar to a maternity hospital in modern society, the first floor is a place for receiving customers and dispensing medicine, and the second floor is a consulting room. There are two independent consulting rooms. I asked the decoration team to help them to do soundproofing.

They recruited two more apprentices, girls aged twelve or thirteen.

There is another small room separated from the consulting room, which is a place for further examination.

There is also a delivery room and a nursery room in the hospital. In the backyard of the small building, a row of bungalows has been newly built in the backyard, which is regarded as the "inpatient department".

The money for the construction of the hospital is provided by the Demon Sect, and the person who built the church is responsible for the construction.

In this world and in this era, giving birth to a woman is like entering the gates of hell.

Maternal and neonatal mortality rates at the former headquarters were very high.

Now that there are doctors and they have money, I hope this situation can be improved.

The women in the headquarters are 100% supportive of the deputy leader who is working hard to improve the living conditions for women, and they are very enthusiastic to see me.

As for men, most people are willing to accept the change, and a few people don't accept it, but they only dare to scold me behind my back.

No matter how unconvinced they are and being stepped on by a woman, none of them dare to stand up and challenge me due to my strength.

Ximen Wuhen has newly created the post of vice-rector, and it is held by a woman. There are not a few people who have objections.

It's just that no matter what attitude they hold, no one dares to stand up and speak out.

One is afraid of Ximen Wuhen, he is the leader.

The second is to be afraid of me, I am invincible in martial arts.

Some of these people have gradually changed their original views after the conditions at the headquarters improved.

Some people still firmly believe that 'women can't do anything'. Under my leadership, the Devil's Cult will come to an end sooner or later.

It's hard for one person to be called a hundred people. No one talks about who is behind them. They scold me in private. I don't care about such a trivial matter.

As long as they just move their mouths and don't move their hands, everyone is still in the same boat.

If someone, out of dissatisfaction, does something that harms the development of the Devil's Cult and makes everyone rich together, then I can't ignore it.

How others see me and what attitude I have are all collected and disseminated by those men.

I know they don't want to hear bad things about me, and they go out of their way to create a positive image of me.

However, they all think that I am evil and awe-inspiring, and they don't understand why they are going against the current. Maybe everyone has the spirit of not hitting the south wall and not looking back.

When I came to this world, my original intention was to farm. Naturally, there was no reason why I asked others to do the farming instead of doing it myself.

So when the farming area is allocated in winter, there is also a piece of land for me to cultivate.

I was busy before and hired someone to help me plant it first. After a few days of free time, I am ready to do it myself.

After buying pastries with Yunzhou, we went straight to my place.

I originally thought that all the land in the Demon Cult's territory was the same, but after actually cultivating it, I discovered that the land within the mangrove forest is only fertile.

The mangrove area and the surrounding land, it is simply 'black technology' land.

Due to the cold climate in Tengxue Country, only one season of grain can be produced a year.

Planting in spring and harvest in autumn, this is the case every year, and it will remain unchanged through the ages.

But in the land occupied by mangroves, the crops began to grow wildly after planting, which frightened the experienced farming experts.

They come from all corners of the country, and they are all refugees from all over the world. They either defected or were bought, and came to the Demon Cult to make a living.

Nothing like this has ever been seen in their respective hometowns.

The temperature and humidity remain the same, the planting process and the techniques used are the same as before. Everything is normal, but the speed of crop growth has changed.

The first grain seeds planted in spring are harvested in summer.

They planted another batch in a hurry, and they expected to harvest another wave by the end of summer.

If they are lucky, they can plant another crop, such as vegetables with a short growth cycle, before winter comes.

Spring comes late in Tengxue Country. Normally, it would be sown at the end of April and harvested at the end of September.

The land of the Devil's Cult headquarters is obviously different from the land elsewhere in Tengxue Country.

No wonder it is called a 'treasure land', and I think of the 'Moguo' I saw in my travel notes.

The explosive growth of the population in the desert country is inseparable from the bumper harvest of grain, otherwise it would not be able to feed so many people.

The headquarters of the Devil's Cult was built on the ruins of the Mo country. Since the ornamental plants were first planted, no one has touched them.

With landscape plants, it conceals its special features.

Originally, I thought that the people of the Demon Cult liked flashy things, but now it seems that the people who founded the Cult may have other plans.

The crazy growth of food is equivalent to getting a double card for those who love farming, which is a great thing.

With enough food, they can grow crops with a long growth cycle. Generally, crops with a long growth cycle are more expensive and can be sold for more money.

Because it is not easy for ordinary farmers to get enough food and clothing, they will not grow these things on a large scale.

I did not sell the first batch of grain harvested, but asked someone to store it in the granary.

During the harvest meeting, Elder Gongsun asked me why I didn't sell these grains?
Since so much money was invested in the early stage, it must be paid back as soon as possible, right?
I shook my head and said, the farming business of the Devil's Cult has just started, so it's best not to let the matter of the 'treasure land' leak out.

There are patrols in the grain field area to keep outsiders away, so the outside world does not know when the grain will be harvested.

Because some people came to make trouble before, they only saw when we planted.

Fortunately, after teaching several waves of people, no outsiders came to spy or sabotage until the time of harvest.

As soon as I say this, everyone will understand.

The Demon Sect guards the treasure land, but they don't have enough self-protection ability. At this time, let others know that this is a treasure land. Can the headquarters still live a stable life?

Reach a consensus on the general direction, and other minor details will be handled by someone else.

For example, issuing a 'Secret Order' requiring congregants to keep secret about the crop growth cycle, or the records of the granary are top-secret documents that need to be stored in a dark compartment, etc., and so on.

Now the first wave of grain has just been harvested, and new seedlings have been planted in other people's fields. The land I contracted has not yet planted the second crop. I plan to use it as an experimental field and try to grow some fruits.

I bought the seeds a long time ago and brought them to the headquarters.

Yun Zhou ate up all the pastries on the way, so I shared some watermelon seeds with him.

Wan'er brought him clothes for work. There was a small shed on our field for farming tools. Yunzhou changed into coarse clothes and shoes in the shed, and ran into the farm with a small basket of seeds on his shoulders. The field is waiting for me to start working together.

I took a few lessons with the agricultural training class, and borrowed other people's notes to transcribe.

The knowledge they teach is easy to understand, all in plain vernacular.

I followed the steps taught above to dig holes and sow seeds. Wan'er dug holes and Yun Zhou planted seeds.

In the end we watered together, Yunzhou was really happy, and called 'ma'am' [-] times.

After planting the seeds, I took him to play in his field. In summer, the roadside was full of wild flowers. He picked a handful of foxtails for me, but he didn't pick any of the flowers.

Dare to love that he is still a person who cherishes flowers, Wan'er covered her mouth and laughed, and lamented that her young master's life was too difficult and bitter when he was smart, and he didn't expect to pay the price of IQ after all the hardships.

I thought to myself that IQ is considered good, and the price for the original body to be free is life.

Two people who have regained their lives in different senses go home to take a shower after planting the land, and eat at the newly opened restaurant.

The owner of this restaurant is also a woman, and she specializes in home-cooked dishes. The steamed buns she steamed are simply amazing.

It belongs to the kind that eats every day, three meals a day, and never gets tired of eating.

The skill of cooking is a bit poor, but the stew is very fragrant, and it is served with steamed buns just out of the pan. Yun Zhou ate two large pots of stewed vegetables and six steamed buns.

Wan'er entered the deep house as a maidservant since she was very young, and she was also a child and no one cared about her, and then she entered the dark guard camp for training. The two of them probably didn't know what "home" was like.

I fell into deep thought and planned to learn a few things from my boss. If I have free time in the future, it is also good to cook at home by myself.

I originally wanted to learn only a few things. I can't learn all the skills that the boss makes a living.

Unexpectedly, the boss wrote her cooking experience into a booklet and gave it to me as a gift.

She is also a woman with a hard life. To be honest, a woman who is not hard-fated is unlikely to come to the Devil's Cult.

Unless it is a family member of a certain elder or hall master, the women in the low-level congregation are generally in a bad situation.

Some were sold because their families were too poor to eat, and some escaped famine with their husbands or family members.

These two are not the worst, and restaurant owners are even worse.

Not only did she flee famine with her husband, the man was also a violent maniac.

Moreover, she was under strict supervision. She proposed to work as a cook or servant in a wealthy family, but was beaten up by her husband, who suspected that she wanted to escape from him.

There was a trick to be an 'auntie', so she wanted to go again, and this time she was beaten even harder.

Because all the workers were men, her husband suspected that she wanted to cheat and ran away with wild men.

In short, whenever she wants to work and subsidize the family, she will be beaten by her husband.

On the way to escape from famine, her mother-in-law got seriously ill. This time, her husband was finally willing to let her go, and sold her to the devil's sect in exchange for money to treat her illness.

She didn't know what the Devil's Cult did at the time, and thought she came in as a sacrifice, and thought she would die happily, so she didn't feel too sad.

After coming in, she made shoes in the garment department with her pretty good mending skills.

She was beaten by her biological parents since she was a child, and was beaten by her husband when she married. She is full of fear of 'family'.

Her days of sewing shoes in the Devil's Cult were also muddled.

Until last fall, I started to pay all members of the Devil's Cult, and she got the first "income" in her life.

The stagnant water in her heart was slightly turbulent, and this spring she saw several skilled women succeed in starting a business, and the turmoil was even bigger.

So with the encouragement of her good sister, she also rented the shop with the money she saved.

She doesn't know anything else, except that she is good at cooking. The front door she rents is not big, nor is it a store facing the street.

However, there was no place for these consumptions in the headquarters, and suddenly there are, even if it is because of curiosity, people will patronize.

The so-called wine is not afraid of deep alleys, and the meals she cooks are delicious and inexpensive. Those who want to work more at night and have no time to go home to cook, come to her to have a bite.

The first batch of grain in the beginning of spring is a bumper harvest, and vegetables can be grown casually at home, and the ingredients in the headquarters are plentiful.

The boss raised chickens and ducks in the backyard, and Bao Ma, who has a good relationship with her, asked her children to catch some worms while they were playing, and gave them to her to feed the chickens.

There is a river outside the headquarters, and there is a branch beside it. The water is shallow and clear, and there are small fish and shrimps.

Because it is too young to eat it, the children went to catch it and gave it to her to feed the duck.

The boss felt that she was alive again. To thank me, she wrote down her cooking experience and thoughts and gave it to me.

I was surprised that she could write. She said shyly that when she was a child, she had a childhood sweetheart brother who was the son of the village chief and a scholar. He would come back to her and teach her what he taught her in the school. again.

For the children of childhood sweethearts, studying secretly together has become the best memory of childhood.

Nai He grew up to be a teenager, the age to talk about marriage.

The village head looked down on her family, and told his son a well-matched marriage.

She was also 'sold' by her parents to an old bachelor who was 15 years older than her.

Maybe it was because that memory was so beautiful and precious, she remembered every word and every article that man taught her clearly.

It's easy for her to learn to read, and it's much easier for people who don't have zero foundation to learn.

I sent people to clean up the resort left by the former elders, clear out a courtyard, and build a library.

There is no need to put too many difficult books, just put some knowledge books, common sense books, and elementary medical books.

I will give this task to the person in charge of shopping, and the standard will be based on what he can understand.

Because the people in charge of procurement have some cultural background, but not many.

The school opened last year has achieved good results, and a number of students have graduated from the literacy class.

There is always a gap between people. Those who are smart and eager to learn graduate early, and those who fail the exam continue to study.

You can give up at any time if you want to, and the free school does not force people to study.

When Xia Yi was in full bloom, several elders and hall masters mentioned in a meeting that they wanted to build the city wall in autumn.

They are not afraid of someone coming to challenge them, but they are afraid of someone coming to burn and grab food.

"But the scope is too wide. We can't do it after 1000 years of cultivation."

The headquarters is full of people, including newborns and those who come to work, there are about [-] people.

And to enclose the grain fields with a wall, the wall must be at least five meters high, which is equivalent to enclosing the entire land within the scope of the big city and the surrounding suburbs.

Some people even proposed not to use stones, but to use metal smelted from magic stone mines to make bricks and build city walls.

After this project is completed, the city wall may stand for a thousand years.

But for those of us who remember it, it will take 1000 years to stand up.

After discussing and discussing, Shang Tangtang advocated that the general manager made a speech, and he suggested building a house outside the grain field.

Using 'residential houses' and 'villages' as walls can not only solve the problem of 24-hour guards, but also serve as a buffer zone.

When an accident occurred in the village, the police were immediately alerted, and the headquarters immediately sent support to prevent the intruders from entering the grain field area.

This idea is accepted by most people, but living outside the grain fields is very dangerous.

I'm worried that no one is willing to move there. Mr. Zhang believes that there must be a brave man under the reward.

As long as enough benefits are given, some people will be willing to take risks.

Oh no, it is to contribute to the Demon Cult.

Of course, each village also has a tower to defend the village.

The church members in the village are not ordinary people without kung fu, they are trained according to the standards of the militia.

I'm fine with someone willing to go, human walls are built faster than metal walls.
