The Rise Of The Tamer Family-Chapter 10
Chapter 10
There were countless dangers hidden in the Endless Mountains. Although relatively speaking, the Chen family would also not go deep into the mountains.
According to the distance that the Chen family had entered in the past, if not for the fact that the Genesis Patriarch guarded them day and night, none of the people who participated in the hunt would have been able to return.
Although Chen Xuan had broken through to the Genesis Realm, he had only just broken through after all. His strength was far inferior to their Genesis Patriarch.
After some consideration, Chen Yang decided not to hold a hunt.
The other elders nodded. This was exactly what they were thinking as well.
At this moment of great change, stability was still the priority.
“Is there anything else? If not, First Elder, let’s patrol the family business.”
“No problem.”
Immediately, under the lead of the First Elder, Chen Yang officially inspected the Chen family’s business. The first stop was Green Mountains outside Maple City.
As the most important industrial base of the Chen family, Green Mountains was naturally guarded by many clansmen. Moreover, they had specially hired array masters to inscribe array formations to ensure the safety of the Gale Wolf.
When Chen Yang and Chen Xuan arrived at Green Mountains, Ninth Elder and Eighth Elder had been waiting for a long time.
“Family Head, First Elder, let me briefly explain the Green Mountains business. This year, the sales of Green Mountains was a total of 2,300 spirit stones. After deducting the consumption of the Gale Wolf’s food, there are still 1,500 spirit stones left,” Ninth Elder said.
“So much food was consumed?” Chen Yang did not expect that the consumption of food alone had reached 800 spirit stones.
“Family Head, this is necessary. Only by feeding demon beast meat for a long time can the Gale Wolf’s growth speed and quality reach the standard.”
“If you feed it ordinary beast meat, not only will it grow slowly, but it won’t reach the standards of the Beastmaster Sect either. It can’t be sold,” Chen Xuan explained.
Chen Yang understood. “In that case, you earned another 500 spirit stones this year?”
“That seems to be the case for now, but I don’t think it will happen next year.” The Eighth Elder looked worried.
When Chen Yang saw this, he immediately became nervous. “What’s going on? Did something happen?”
“Family Head, it’s like this. The Green-horned Bulls will give birth next year. In order to raise the Green-horned Bulls, we have to leave some spirit stones next year.”
“I see.”
Hearing Ninth Elder’s explanation, Chen Yang could not help but smile bitterly. This was really a blissful worry.
“It doesn’t matter. I reckon that in three years, the first batch of Green-horned Bulls will be sold to the sect. At that time, Green Mountains’ spirit stone profits will increase.”
“Just hang in there for a while. It’ll pass soon enough.”
Chen Yang patted the Ninth Elder on the shoulder, indicating that they did not have to worry.
Not long after, the inspection of Green Mountains’ business was completed. Although Green Mountains’ business was the main business of the family, it was the most difficult place for problems to arise.
The more precious this business was, the less sordid it would be.
After bidding farewell to Green Mountains, Chen Xuan led Chen Yang to the Chen family’s second largest business, the Chen family’s farm.
“Family Head, our farm has a total of 10,000 acres of fertile land. What we produce now though is only ordinary rice, so we can only sell it for Great Qian Gold.”
“But with so much food, mutated spirit rice will appear every year. It can also bring considerable benefits to the family.”
The First Elder explained the business of the farm to Chen Yang as he pushed open the door.
In the Chen family’s farm, the tenant farmers were seriously plowing the Chen family’s farmland under the arrangement of the collateral disciples.
Many people in Maple City were willing to become the tenant farmers of the Chen family.
After all, the Chen family had already entered the ranks, and spirit stones were what they valued the most. As for the Great Qian Gold, it was barely tangible for them. They just needed enough to maintain their lives.
In fact, with the size of the Chen family, a ninth-grade family, there might be a shortage of spirit stones, but there was no way they could spend all the Great Qian Gold.
The Chen family, which was rich in Great Qian Gold, was naturally extremely charitable of these tenant farmers.
Although the land was not their own, the income of the tenant farmers was far higher than that of the other self-owned farmers in Maple City.
When they saw Chen Yang and Chen Xuan enter, the collateral relatives in charge of this place came up to them.
“Greetings, Family Head. Greetings, First Elder.”
“Alright, there’s no need to be so polite. I’ll accompany the Family Head to inspect the situation at the farm. Send one of you to follow us, the rest of you go do whatever you have to do.”
The First Elder waved his hand and dismissed these people. Then, he followed Chen Yang into the farmland.
The collateral family member in charge of following him followed behind without a word, waiting for Chen Yang’s question.
“How much spirit rice was born this year?”
Hearing Chen Yang’s question, the collateral family member hurriedly replied, “Family Head, according to my estimation, about a thousand catties of spiritual rice will be born this year.”
“Only a thousand catties?”
Chen Yang frowned. One acre of land could probably produce 700 catties of rice, but 10,000 acres of land could only produce 1,000 catties of spiritual rice.
In other words, not even a catty of spirit rice could be produced in an acre.
This kind of naturally mutated spirit rice was basically ninth-grade spirit rice. One spirit stone could buy ten catties.
Didn’t that mean that the entire Chen family manor could only produce 100 spirit stones?
Seeing Chen Yang frown, the branch family member felt as if he was in an ice cave. He could not help but tremble.
He wondered what he had done wrong to upset the head of the family.
“It has nothing to do with you.” Fortunately, Chen Yang saw the man’s nervousness and explained, which made the man heave a sigh of relief.
At the side, Chen Xuan understood what Chen Yang meant. “Family Head, this year is still considered a good time.”
“What do you mean?” Chen Yang looked at Chen Xuan.
“Family Head, for some reason, the spiritual energy in Maple City is much richer than in previous years. Even the amount of rice that mutated into spirit rice has increased.”
“If it were in the past, 250 catties would be considered to be pretty good,” Chen Xuan said happily.
Hearing Chen Xuan’s words, Chen Yang was relieved. “If only my Chen family also had a spiritual field.”
The spiritual field was a good thing. Not only did the rice planted automatically become spiritual rice that produced spiritual rice, but it could also grow spiritual herbs.
“Under the lead of the Family Head, I believe our Chen family will definitely have spiritual fields.” Chen Xuan flattered Chen Yang.
Chen Yang glanced at Chen Xuan. “You’re already a Genesis Patriarch. Why are you still sucking up to me?”
“You can’t say that.” Chen Xuan said righteously, “I’m just telling the truth. How can the truth be flattery?”
Immediately after, Chen Xuan put on a smile. “Besides, even if I become a Ningdan expert, I will always be loyal to the Family Head.”
“However, whether I can break through to the Ningdan realm will depend on the family head.”
“Okay, we will see.”
After inspecting the spiritual field business, Chen Yang sat at a stone table and stared at the endless fertile land.
What a waste.
This was the only thought in Chen Yang’s mind.
After a week of inspection, Chen Yang discovered that the people here cultivated farmland without any concept of fertilization at all. They relied on their natural growth.
The Chen family was not bad. They would buy some insect repellent medicine, but that was all.
