With a word and a smile, He Yuxiu relaxed quite a bit, and everything was arranged properly, Li Qi went to the Soda Kiln.

At the factory, Feng Daiku was waiting outside: "I told Luo Lijun that the Defense Agency is preparing to move, Luo Lijun didn’t believe it and wanted to go out and see for herself."

Li Qi shook his head and said: "That’s not possible, she cannot leave that factory building, this rule cannot be changed."

The two entered the factory, Luo Lijun was pacing by the pool, seeing Li Qi arrive, she waved her antennae in welcome: "You say I’ve got to go out and see, it’s not that I don’t trust you all, I’ve brought the Contract Book, but I need to verify it somehow, it can’t just be whatever you say it is."

Luo Lijun actually brought two pieces of the Contract Book, Li Qi took the Contract Book and glanced at it, asking: "This is indeed a pair, right?"

"Of course it’s a pair!" Luo Lijun, afraid that Li Banfeng wouldn’t believe it, specially told him the method of verification, "After the Defense Agency moves away, I’ll give you the Land Seal, and also tell you the location of the new land, you can take the Contract Book to the new land and drip blood to verify it, both pieces will have a response, proving that there’s no problem with the Contract Book."

Li Qi was still uneasy: "We need to make it clear, this new land is entirely mine, you mustn’t leave behind any Curse Techniques, nor any other methods."

Luo Lijun brought out a Paper Contract: "As long as the Defense Agency moves away, we’ll set the Paper Contract right now!"

Looking at it purely from sincerity, this approach by the Inner State really leaves no room for criticism.

Li Qi certainly couldn’t let the River Snail leave the factory, but giving her no chance to verify also wasn’t fair: "Send someone from your side, don’t you have many people from Puluo State?"

The River Snail Girl thought seriously, contemplating who could be considered reliable.

After thinking for a long while, Luo Lijun mentioned a name: "Chu Shaoqiang, do you know this person?"

Li Qi nodded: "I do."

Feng Daiku also knew Chu Shaoqiang: "Why did you reveal this person to us? Aren’t you afraid we might trouble him?"

Luo Lijun said: "We’re doing a fair trade, I want to lay things out plainly, Chu Shaoqiang will arrive at the Soda Kiln within a day or two, by then, there’s no way he can escape your notice, since we’re being upfront, I ask you not to trouble him too."

It was indeed spoken honestly, and facts proved Luo Lijun’s approach was correct.

Feng Daiku had special methods, and coupled with the fact that the Soda Kiln’s territory wasn’t large, Li Qi could always quickly learn whenever she came.

Chu Shaoqiang arrived at the Soda Kiln the next day, stayed for less than half a day, and was discovered by Feng Daiku.

That evening, Luo Lijun found Li Banfeng again, with Chu Shaoqiang also present.

Luo Lijun said: "Chu Shaoqiang has already checked the situation, most of the Defense Agency’s manpower has withdrawn, I trust you all, today we’ll set the Paper Contract, give you the Land Seal, and tell you the location of the new land."

She prepared a map, which marked the location of the new land.

It was thought that the location of this new land was extremely remote, but Li Banfeng, having looked over the map, found it wasn’t far from Greenwater City.

Things seemed to be going too smoothly.

Both parties set the Paper Contract, and Li Banfeng collected the Land Seal; the new land was now in hand.

Chu Shaoqiang left with Li Qi and Feng Daiku as they exited the factory together.

Upon parting, Chu Shaoqiang warned Li Banfeng: "You need to be careful."

Li Banfeng asked: "What should I be careful about?"

Chu Shaoqiang looked around, then lowered his voice to speak to Li Qi: "A complete new land with the two pieces of Contract Book, I’ve never seen anything like it, to be honest, I’m quite envious,

certainly, I’m not the only one envy, there are definitely many who want this new land, getting it is one thing, whether you can keep it or not, ultimately depends on your own abilities."

Chu Shaoqiang left, and Feng Daiku also felt uneasy: "Young Master Li, the Inner State might still have a backup plan, we also need to stay vigilant."

Li Banfeng looked over the Paper Contract repeatedly: "To be honest, I really can’t see what hidden trick could still lie within."

Feng Daiku shook her head: "If the Inner State operated with such integrity, their reputation wouldn’t be so bad, it’s hard to say if there’s something hidden here."

Li Banfeng also knew things shouldn’t be so smooth, but couldn’t think of what other tactics the Inner State might have, after pondering for a long time, Li Banfeng asked: "I’d like to ask Miss Feng about a skill, how did you know Chu Shaoqiang arrived at the Soda Kiln?"

Speaking of this skill, Feng Daiku was indeed impressive, Ma Wu had mentioned before, as long as he arrived at the Pants Belt Pit, Feng Daiku would certainly sense it.

Feng Daiku laughed upon hearing this: "Young Master Li, do you want to learn?"

Li Banfeng understood, such an advanced skill certainly couldn’t be taught easily to others: "I never make people do things freely, Miss Feng, whatever conditions you have, we can discuss them."

Feng Daiku sighed: "The condition isn’t simple, the reason I can know about the territory is because I’ve planted Emotional Roots all over it, if Young Master Li wants to learn this craft, you’ll have to join my Taoist Sect."

This was indeed a bit difficult, Li Banfeng had already engaged in two businesses, opening a third would really be too risky.

Besides, even if a third business could be opened, it couldn’t be within the Emotion Cultivator domain.

Seeing Li Qi silent for a long time, Feng Daiku didn’t force it: "Young Master Li, with the Outside Provinces gone, the Inner State lacks restraint, it’s hard to predict how many changes there might be, I hope you’ll keep a close watch over the territory of the Soda Kiln."

After agreeing, Li Qi left the Soda Kiln, went to Greenwater City, found He Yuxiu, and first took her for a walk around the new land.

The territory was nice, with a high mountain, large forests, ample timber and stone, expansive fields, and in the future, once the Farming Cultivation is introduced, there’s land suitable for farming.
