Old Ancestor Kun Yuan thought for a mont, then shook his head, "Our Wang Family has been guarding this wild marsh for generations, and we have always paid attention to and explored it. Neither our Wang family's patrol team nor those Independent Cultivators risking their lives for resources have found any abnormalities in the marsh."
"Logically, that Green Jiao is very likely to have swum across from the other side of Peace River. Whether it ca here unintentionally or for a specific purpose, we are not sure."
"The intelligence of a peak Level Six Fierce Beast is almost no different from humans," Wang Shouzhe frowned slightly, "Fierce Beasts are very fond of their nests and will not leave unless forced to. Moreover, it has reached a bottleneck period... its biggest goal is perhaps..."
"Family Head Shouzhe's aning is... this beast is looking for a chance to advance?" Old Ancestor Kun Yuan revealed a keen glint in his eyes, "And this opportunity is likely in this Marsh? Correct, normal Fierce Beasts seldom migrate randomly. Even if they migrate or pass through, they would never cause such a fuss."
"Old Ancestor Kun Yuan, do you have a map of the marsh?" Wang Shouzhe asked.
"This..." Old Ancestor Kun Yuan sowhat hesitated, but finally took out a large map from his Storage Ring, "This map of the marsh is given to Family Head Shouzhe to repay for his life-saving favor."
This map is a detailed one of the marsh, handed down from generation to generation by the Wang family and continually improved. The terrain of the marsh changes quickly, with the rainy season and dry season differing, so it was extraordinarily difficult to create a map that includes the year-round cyclical changes.
"I just want to take a look and think of a way to deal with the Green Jao. I don't intend to encroach on your family's territory of the marsh," Wang Shouzhe laughed lightly, then took over and began to study the map in detail.
For the Wang family, they have already explored almost all of the area outside the thousand or so miles radius, ready to expand at any ti.
Why bother coveting the benefits of the Wang Family's territory?
This is Wang Shouzhe's way of the world. He would rather expand outwardly to develop his family than squeeze the local prominent families by internal friction. This is why, nowadays, the prestige of the Changning Wang Clan is in the ascendant in the Southern Six Guards.
Once other prominent families have beco powerful, they are all based on squeezing or exploiting other prominent families.
But the Wang family not only does not squeeze, but also provides better money-making opportunities, allowing the people in their community to live a more prosperous life, and truly implenting the great strategic thinking of first becoming rich and then leading others to wealthiness.
Subsequently.
Under the lead of the Wang Family, everyone first moved to a highland area where the Wang family's ancestors had established a safe spot and have maintained it. This area is on high terrain. Even in the rainy season, it is well-fortified and can withstand attacks from Fierce Beasts up to Level Four for a short period of ti.
Most importantly, this place is comparatively clean and doesn't require relying on Mysterious Energy to float in the air all the ti. People like Old Ancestor Longyan and Liu Ruolan would not like to step into the mud casually.
After a brief rest, Wang Shouzhe studied the map carefully and occasionally discussed with Family Head Chengye. Over the years, it has been Family Head Chengye handling various matters. Old Ancestor Kun Yuan, in the Advanced Stage of the Heavenly Human Realm, has always been indifferent to worldly affairs and only focused on Cultivation.
After half a day, Wang Shouzhe ca up with a plan: "Observe this Gourd Mouth, Family Head Chengye. During the rainy season, this area is a shallow marsh. But in the dry season, it becos a narrow gourd mouth. This controls the traffic like a throat, holding this marsh in its grasp. Now it's just the dry season, and the water level is shallow."
"All we need to do is build a large flood control dam within this Gourd Mouth, and we can completely seal off this marsh. Then we can drain the water through the dam, and in the dry season, we can use facilities such as water dragon cars to irrigate the marsh."
"In this way, we will have the chance to ta this large marsh."
Wang Shouzhe is best at planning. When his family was weak, he initiated the "great project" of dredging and farming. Although that project, when compared to the current Wang family, can only be considered as a small project, they all contributed to it with all they had.
"This..." Family Head Chengye, who was not good at planning, was puzzled and asked weakly, "Master Shouzhe, what's the use of taming the marsh?"
"Family Head Chengye, can't you see this?" Wang Shouzhe glanced at him, "The economic potential of this marsh is not small. Once it's thoroughly tad and managed, the annual inco could conservatively estimate to be more than a million Qian Gold."
M-More than a million?
The two Old Ancestors of the Wang family looked at each other. Isn't this an astronomical figure?
For the current Wang family, the gross annual inco is about 300,000 at most. Still, they have to cover the family's considerable expenses and the consumption for Old Ancestor Kun Yuan's cultivation. After all that, the family doesn't have any money left.
An annual inco of more than a million was sothing the Wang family dare not even think about.
If the annual inco is over a million Qian Gold, does this represent? Family Head Chengye looked at Old Ancestor Kun Yuan in surprise, his old man's resources for cultivation are enough. They could even accumulate so surplus to gradually buy the Rank Six Dan dicine, the "Spirit Communication Treasure Pill", needed for advancing to the Purple Abode Realm, and various auxiliary materials.
Even better, there could also be extra resources available for the youngsters of the family to cultivate.
