Zhang Shen did not participate in specific things, but his memories of his previous life and his experiences in this life made him know how to prosper a region.
There are many unique small tasks in the ancient alliance.
For example, cultivating high-yield, high-nutrition crops, developing new fertilizers, building dams, etc.
At the beginning, these tasks were very puzzling, but after ten years, day by day, the food production in the Sand City area exploded, the population doubled, and the number of warriors surged like a tide.
The problem of population burden does not exist, and we are still a long way from proposing measures to curb it, and this limit may never be reached.
The Great Wilderness is too cruel.
The people who benefited the most from this process were not ordinary people. Zhang Shen did not dare to take the risk of popularizing basic martial arts.
But there is no doubt that the Ancient Alliance got the biggest piece of the pie.
Zhang Shen opened an opportunity and recruited a large number of hardworking and honest children from the people as disciples of the Ancient Alliance, cultivating their loyalty and teaching them basic martial arts.
These people are the future and backbone of the Ancient Alliance.
Zhang Shen walked around the city alone without notifying anyone.
He rarely bought some food to taste.
After he became a martial arts master, he rarely ate these foods anymore.
"It tastes pretty good." Zhang Shen praised. He couldn't compare to those great chefs, but he really thought it was good. He liked the flavor of home.
They walked and ate all the way until Li Zhao came looking for them.
Zhang Shen did not conceal his whereabouts and breath, but not many people knew him, so it was not easy to detect his breath.
Li Zhao is different. She often stays in one place, so how could she not be familiar with her master's aura
Ten years later, the 22-year-old Li Zhao had grown into an outstanding person. Her long-term high position had accumulated for her an extraordinary temperament, and her eighth-level cultivation had given her a strong confidence.
If she had not learned hidden martial arts from Zhang Shen, she would have attracted attention every time she went out.
Just like now, not many people noticed her, and Li Zhao's existence was ignored.
"Master, why didn't you come to see us when you came here?" Li Zhao said in a resentful and coquettish manner.
"Come and take a look. I'll come find you later." Zhang Shen said with a smile. He did not put on a very majestic attitude in front of his apprentice.
There is no need, the apprentice he chose is not a fool.
His ruthless and decisive side will not be ignored just because of his kindness.
"How does it feel to have witnessed the existence of Sand City for ten years?" Zhang Shen said.
Li Zhao said: "It's amazing, it has developed beyond imagination."
"Master, I have never seen a strong person like you who cares about ordinary people."
“I didn’t expect that they would burst out with such enthusiasm.”
Zhang Shen smiled at his apprentice's sigh.
“Eat it.” He pushed over a portion of tofu with green onions and a portion of stinky tofu.
"I think you haven't tasted it, try it."
Li Zhao had indeed never tried it. Mixing it with tofu was fine, but what on earth was stinky tofu? Could something so stinky really be eaten
After a little hesitation, she still tasted it.
It tastes surprisingly good!
Her eyes lit up.
"If you are sure that something will not harm you, you might as well try it. It will be good for you to experience more things."
Li Zhao nodded repeatedly.
It was already noon when the two arrived at the Ancient Alliance headquarters.
"Strange, where is Li Wu? He is usually very active and noisy."
Zhang Shen asked curiously. Unlike the steady Li Zhao, Li Wu was smart but also very restless, often causing ridiculous things.
Li Zhao was a little helpless. "He went to Hongyuan City to train.
Gone. "
"I guess he went to look for Xiaofeng and Miaohao."
"The three of them have a pretty good relationship." Zhang Shen said with a smile. The two little chubby boys back then are now handsome and elegant.
In the past ten years, the two little guys also came here to find Zhang Shen.
Unfortunately, the boring life in Luoshuijian is not something that ordinary people can live.
The two little guys couldn't stand it after only one month.
"Zhao'er, how many people are there in the Ancient Alliance and Hongyuan City now?" Zhang Shen asked.
Li Zhao answered with a rough number.
"We have developed well over the years. In addition to the warriors we trained ourselves, many foreign warriors have joined us."
"Very good, Zhao'er, notify Uncle Si and the others to come over. It's time to take action against Jiuchuan City and other places."
"Take action?" Li Zhao was quite surprised. "Master, are you?"
Li Zhao clearly remembered that Zhang Shen once said that they were short of manpower and strength.
Without the power of Zhendan, it is impossible to control such a vast land.
Zhang Shen nodded, "Just know it, don't spread it around, keep a low profile."
Li Zhao was ecstatic.
It is really exciting that the backing is becoming stronger.
Soon, Zhang Yu, Zhang Si, Lin Da and Li Zhong who were stationed at the Ancient Alliance all gathered together. They had already learned from Li Zhao about Zhang Shen's breakthrough, and the word "ecstatic" was not enough to describe how they felt.
This is so sudden and of such great significance.
I saw that they couldn't calm down their high emotions for a long time.
Zhang Shen had no choice but to repeat several times: "Calm down, calm down, just be happy for a while, don't lose your composure."
Unfortunately it was in vain.
The discussion had to be postponed until everyone's emotions had calmed down.
Endless wilderness, within the jurisdiction of Hongyuan City.
Three young people are going for an outing.
"Li Wu, you came here suddenly. Could it be that you couldn't bear the hardship of training and ran away?" Zhang Feng joked.
Li Wu looked as if he had eaten a fly, and said stubbornly: "Do I look like that kind of person? I have been practicing martial arts for a long time and came here to gain some experience and try my fists and feet!"
Zhang Feng and Zhang Miaohao smiled but said nothing.
They knew Li Wu's situation very well.
Li Zhao had high expectations for his younger brother, counting on him to build a prosperous Li family in the future, and therefore was quite strict with him.
All kinds of resources are tied to him, and the task of cultivation is very heavy.
Li Wu was also able to endure hardships and never complained about being tired or suffering, but after a long time he also wanted to relax.
"By the way, Zhang Feng, are you really practicing sword?" Li Wu asked in surprise. This friend had mentioned that he wanted to practice sword before, and he thought he was joking, but he actually did it for real? Is he so stupid
"Yeah, this idiot has been clamoring that he wants to fight with big brother in the future with swords and sabers, but now he can't even beat me." Zhang Miaohao joked sarcastically, not giving his younger brother any face at all.
The two were born from the same womb and often argued about who was older. Recently, Zhang Miaohao had pressed Zhang Feng and rubbed her several times, temporarily securing her position as the second sister. Whether this position would be stable in the future would depend on whether Zhang Feng was supportive.
Now it was Zhang Feng's turn to be unhappy.
"Humph, if you have the guts, put down your big brother's sword training experience and say this to me again! I promise I won't beat you to death!"
"Huh!?" Zhang Miaohao frowned and raised the Snow White Knife at his waist. Zhang Feng instantly became quiet.
Zhang Feng gritted his teeth, Zhang Miaohao was complacent, and Li Wu shook his head.
Since he has such a powerful brother who is good at swordsmanship, what's wrong with his brain that makes him want to practice sword
Li Wu understood Zhang Feng's arrogance, but he still thought it was stupid.
If it weren't for his family's martial arts,
Fortunately, his sister is also good at boxing and kicking, otherwise he would have to beg his sister to go to Lord Zhang to ask for some sword skills to practice.
The three of them were playing and fighting as they passed by one field after another.
"What a huge change." Li Wu didn't come here often. In the past, outside the jurisdiction of Hongyuan City were all poor mountains and bad waters, with poisonous insects and ferocious beasts everywhere.
There are only a few villages and tribes scattered here.
It is different now. Several wide roads connect the entire jurisdiction of Hongyuan City. Many villages and tribes are distributed around the roads, and many fields and orchards have been developed around these tribes.
The damage to the veins of the Endless Wilderness has affected the birth of warriors and natural treasures, but has little impact on other things.
"Indeed, these are all learned from the Ancient Alliance." Zhang Feng said. Due to their status, they can get access to many decisions made by the upper echelons of Hongyuan City and know the underlying reasons.
"It took a lot of effort to build these roads. In order to keep the monsters out of the area, a lot of power from Hongyuan City was involved."
"Speaking of which, how about we go to the border and take a look? Sister Lin You and the others are patrolling there."
Zhang Miaohao looked at Li Wu and Zhang Feng and said, touching the handle of the Snow White Sword with his hand.
The three of them had a tacit understanding and understood each other's meaning after a moment of eye contact.
The three of them walked away talking and laughing, and several figures were hidden in the dense forest behind them.
"Border line? That's just convenient for us."
Zhang Shen and Zhang Yu discussed it and started to take action.
"If you can subdue them in a low-key manner, do so. Don't kill too many people. But for those who are stubborn, don't hesitate. Just strike when you need to."
Zhang Shen's words set the tone for this operation.
A large number of troops marched towards Hongyuan City in a low-key manner under the cover of darkness.
Of course, with so many people mobilized, it is impossible to hide it from everyone.
Almost all the forces knew that the Ancient Alliance was going to make a big move.
The smart ones have already guessed something based on the direction the group was heading.
Zhang Yu and Lin Da stayed in Yousha City to take charge.
Li Zhao, Li Zhong, Zhang Si and others moved with the main force.
Zhang Shen took the lead.
The plan was planned independently by the Ancient Alliance, although Zhang Yu, Lin Da and others could also make decisions on behalf of Hongyuan City.
Hongyuan City will inevitably follow suit.
But Zhang Shen still needs to go over and explain first.
Three old men, Zhang Tianlong, Lin Wanfeng and Ye Shuang, held a secret meeting with Zhang Shen.
They unanimously agreed to Zhang Shen's plan.
Especially when they heard and confirmed that Zhang Shen had broken through to the True Dan level.
He had no objection to Zhang Shen's proposal that the Ancient Alliance should control the other five cities.
"Congratulations, you have a wonderful grandson."
"Congratulations, you also have a good nephew."
"You too, have a great grandson."
…
Zhang Shen did not join in the mutual flattery among the three old men.
It is most appropriate for the Ancient Alliance to control the other five cities.
Neither the Ancient Alliance nor Hongyuan City has enough manpower to extend their tentacles to every aspect.
It is possible to play a supervisory role and occupy a key position.
"In the future, Hongyuan City will belong to the three tribes, and the territory can be expanded. The young people of the three tribes can join the Ancient Alliance and become a member of the Ancient Alliance."
Zhang Shen was thinking, he wanted a lot, he needed a force to support him.
Hongyuan City is a family power and has its limitations. It is difficult to keep up with Zhang Shen’s progress.
This is also the reason why he established the Ancient Alliance.
In this way, he can recruit the talents he needs without too many restrictions.
