We Really Do Have a Common Enemy

Zhou Wanwan looked helplessly at the elm tree spirit and said, "Fine, you can leave if you want, I won't stop you, but you need to understand, you only have one chance."

The elm tree spirit retracted the roots it was about to run away from.

"Hey! This is just a joke, isn't it? You're not funny at all, you little brat."

I'll take you to the village now; they've dug several cellars there.

I'll lead you to find them all.

The elm spirit was very fast, leading them to more than 10 cellars in the village.

Zhou Wanwan dug out all the grain from the cellar.

The Chinese toon tree beside them cried out, "Sister, take me with you! I know they have several cellars on the mountain, with food and water inside!"

Zhou Wanwan nodded. Sure enough, there were three more cellars on the mountain, which were also found one by one.

Of course, there are more cellars in Zhou Family Village than just these.

That's all we could find for now. After doing everything, Zhou Wanwan left with her people.

She had no idea what those big trees were doing.

However, the next day, they discovered that many more houses had appeared in the mountain stronghold.

Tie Niu looked at the house in front of him and said:

"Wow, boss, you guys are way too fast!"

They built more than a dozen houses in one night, and the houses are quite nice.

Zhou Wanwan never expected that last night these trees would move all the houses in Zhou Family Village that looked decent back.

She coughed and said, "Just make do with it! After all, it's winter, so you shouldn't use these thatched huts."

The half of the mountain village on Tie Niu's side was still full of thatched huts and shacks; it was just too cold.

Tie Niu nodded quickly:

"Make them move today. I heard there was an accident at Azure Dragon Mountain Stronghold recently, and many people died."

Sigh! The Azure Dragon Mountain Stronghold is acting far too recklessly.

However, they recruited many more people.

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"Azure Dragon Mountain Stronghold acts too wickedly, leaving themselves no way out, which is definitely not going to work."

Although life is tough for us in Black Wind Stronghold, we won't do anything that's morally reprehensible.

Tie Niu nodded and said:

"Actually, that's what I think too. If we actually went to rob someone, maybe we could live a better life."

But we ourselves have come from a life of hardship, and we know how much suffering ordinary people endure.

So I ordered everyone to stop robbing for a living. I'd rather endure hardship and toil, and cultivate land in the mountains with my own hands.

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Your idea is quite good. It's commendable to still hold such a view in this world."

This is also why Zhou Wanwan accepted Tie Niu's offer.

Although Tie Niu also did some bad things, he had his own principles and bottom line.

After Tie Niu went to work, Zhou Wanwan went straight into the vegetable garden, which had been transformed into a series of greenhouses.

She went into the greenhouse and began converting energy directly. She felt that the speed of energy conversion was getting faster and faster.

Before long, the plants began to sprout.

Zhou Wanwan's vegetables are growing quite fast; the first batch is already almost finished.

There are also sweet potatoes. Zhou Wanwan has been to ancient grain stores, but she has never seen sweet potatoes.

In other words, sweet potatoes didn't exist in the Great Xia Kingdom; they were found in the mountains.

I wonder if it's a seed that someone left here, or something else?

Promoting these sweet potatoes on a large scale in Great Xia would actually have some benefits.

Sweet potatoes are drought-resistant and have a very high yield; with proper management, each acre can produce over a thousand kilograms.

Zhou Wanwan made sure all the vegetables in the last few greenhouses sprouted before going to the sweet potato greenhouse.

There was only one greenhouse for sweet potatoes. Zhou Wanwan looked at Liu Xiuyuan, "Why don't you dig out all the sweet potatoes in here?"

Liu Xiuyuan was taken aback and said, "Huh? These sweet potatoes haven't grown properly yet?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "It should be almost done. Let's dig some out and test them. If these sweet potatoes are good, then we can start planting more."

Liu Xiuyuan didn't understand why his young master was doing this, but he was obedient!

He immediately led a group of people to start digging up the sweet potatoes; he really hadn't expected the yield to be so high.

On this half-acre plot of land, a single stroke of the hoe unearthed a mountain of sweet potatoes, weighing an estimated thousand pounds, which made his eyes light up.

"Wow... the yield of these sweet potatoes is so high?"

Zhou Wanwan hadn't expected the sweet potato yield to be this high; it must be because her energy had a positive effect on increasing crop yields.

Zhou Wanwan arranged for people to plant all these sweet potatoes.

Zhou Wanwan taught the villagers to select sweet potatoes with smooth skin and uniform size for planting.

No need to wait until spring; simply bury the selected sweet potatoes diagonally in the furrows of the greenhouse, and they will sprout in twenty days, more than a month earlier than open-field seedling cultivation.

To achieve high yields, the land must be deeply tilled and leveled, and seedlings should be planted with a spacing of one foot between plants to avoid overcrowding and competition for nutrients.

They planted four greenhouses directly. Zhou Wanwan patted the dirt off her clothes and said, "This is good. When there are more and more sweet potatoes, maybe they can save many lives."

Zhou Wanwan went home to sleep, but Old Madam Zhou like her world had collapsed.

"The house... the money, it's all gone, sob sob sob..."

Who the hell did this? Are they trying to make my life miserable?

The village chief rushed over and said, "All our grain is gone! What are we going to do now?"

"Report to the authorities! Report to the authorities right now! These bandits, these robbers, I want them all beheaded!" Old Madam Zhou was furious.

Many officials came, but after investigating, they couldn't find anything out.

They said helplessly, "We really can't find the murderer. Isn't this a fortune teller? Why can't she figure it out herself? Why is she making things difficult for us?"

Old Madam Zhou was furious. If she could really predict the future, would she need this bunch of good-for-nothings?

However, this matter was very strange. She went directly to the county government office, Cheng Xiao looked at her with mixed feelings and said:

"You mean your house was also burgled? And your money was stolen too? I think there's something wrong with that."

Look! It seems like this murderer is targeting just a few of our families. Do we have some kind of grudge against this murderer?

Old Madam Zhou hissed and said, "We really do have a common enemy."

Jiang Wu suddenly said, "Zhou Wanwan..."

Cheng Xiao suddenly burst into laughter:

"You two mean, a little girl moved our whole house?"

Even if Liu Family Village is truly powerful, they probably couldn't do it.

You should know how many crossbeams are in my county government office. Didn't your family have over a dozen rooms moved away yesterday?

You're saying that even in Liu Family Village, it would be difficult to manage a dozen or so houses in one night.

However, I did hear some news: some people from Azure Dragon Mountain Stronghold said that Wanwan will be at Black Wind Stronghold this Zhou Wanwan.
