Chapter 178: Turn slaves into people·Chu people are endless

Along the long journey, you can see some gurgling water flowing to the outskirts of Yingdu, forming a place where water bodies intersect, which is the relatively prosperous farmland of Chu State.

As time passed, the surrounding land became more and more wild, and the road became very rough.

One day later, we arrived at a camp, which looked like a border defense place.

Feng Yun frowned.

Qu Yuan said: "Fengzi, after passing Jingmen, you will reach Dandi."

"The Lord of Chu has granted you the land of Yang in Danshan Mountain."

"Today we can rest at Jingmen, pick up some farming tools, and then enter the alchemy."

Jingmen?

"Let's rest for a day."

Feng Yun got out of the car and saw that under the afterglow of the setting sun, Jingmen was sandwiched between two mountains.

"This place is a fortress of Chu State."

Feng Yun looked at the situation and nodded secretly, but he found a terrain map at Jingmen and looked at the terrain of Dandi...

The next day, Feng Yun took his slaves and many armored soldiers out of Jingmen and entered the Dandi.

Another day, as the sun was approaching, Feng Yuncai led everyone to a mountain.

Feng Yun got out of the car and looked around.

He is holding a map of Dandi in his hand.

This place is the Yang of Danshan.

This is a piece of land between the Chu State south of the Han River and the angle between Jingshan Mountain. It is nearly two days' journey from the Chu State's capital of Ying, which is almost equivalent to the distance from Ying Capital to the Zeng State's capital.

The entire Dan Land is a flat land, but due to the geographical location and the special nature of the Dan Land, it has been abandoned for a long time. Feng Yun was the first person to be enfeoffed here.

Looking at the map, the Han River is to the north and east, and the mountains are to the south and west.

It is shaped like a basin, with gentle terrain, steep surroundings, and endless mountains as far as the eye can see. In the middle of the plain, there is a community of low mountains.

Standing on a low slope, looking eastward, you can see some water waves in the jungle, which should be the Han River.

"With a radius of fifty miles, Lord Chu originally chose such a piece of land."

It has a radius of fifty li, and its diameter is fifty li, and the enclosed land is a town.

When the Chu Kingdom was divided into viscounts, they were only fifty miles apart. Now, to allocate such land to Feng Yun... he had ulterior motives.

"Dan?"

Feng Yun has read the history of Chu.

The Chu State was originally on the side of the Han River, and was still far away from here. However, Xiong, the ancestor of the Chu State, led the Chu people south along the Han River and then came to the land of Jingchu. They respected Zhou and resisted the barbarians, and expanded and developed.

The old capital of Chu State was named Danyang.

Looking towards the Han River, Feng Yun remembered that on the other side of the Han River was the remote boundary of Zeng State.

When the Chu State went to Zeng State, they would not pass through here because it was too remote.

"Fengzi... This place was the first place that the Chu Kingdom occupied when it went south. However, the Chu people found that the land between the Yangtze River and the Han River was more suitable for Chu's expansion, so they abandoned this part of the land."

"If the wind can open it up, it can also become a good land."

Hearing the sound, Feng Yun nodded, scanned the desolate surroundings, and said: "Under nature, people leave and return to nature."

"I am alone, what do I need so much good land for?"

"Cuckoo..." The bird flew away in fright.

"Set up camp and let the soldiers pay attention to everyone's safety. I will observe the surroundings first and then make a conclusion."

"Nuo." Regarding obtaining such a piece of land, both Feng Yun and Qu Yuan knew Chu Jun's plan - a thick but empty seal.

But with the name "Dan", anyone who gets it will say that Mr. Chu is generous.

But in fact, not to mention a piece of Dan Mountain Yang Land, it is an entire Dan Land. It may seem big, but it is also in a frontier wilderness. It has neighbors with many countries and it is difficult to expand. It is a land that protects the land and is self-proclaimed.

.

If it weren't for the Kingdom of Zhou, I'm afraid there would be constant trouble.

visible--

To the west is the Jingshan Mountains, neighboring Quan State.

To the north is the angle between Hanjiang River and Jingshan Mountain, adjacent to Gu Country.

It is adjacent to the country of Lu across the river to the north.

It is separated by the Han River in the east and adjacent to Zeng State.

To the south is Jingmen, which is the major pass in the northern part of Chu State.

This time is like a captive place.

Feng Yun’s thoughts: The place of captivity…

On the side, dinner is ready.

Qu Yuan came with minced meat, which was delicious. The Yangyue prisoners of war around him were nobles. After a few days of jolting, they had already lost all their oil and water.

When Feng Yun saw this, he said to Qu Yuan: "Tomorrow I will let the armored soldiers take care of me and take these people to open up the mountains and forests, hunt and fish, and the women will stay nearby to tidy up the land..."

Feng Yun arranged them one by one and did not treat them differently because of their gender or their identities.

"You are now the chief minister of the Chu State. You cannot stay here for a long time. Go back quickly."

Before Qu Yuan could speak, Feng Yun continued:

"I remember that Lord Chu also rewarded me with five hundred gold. I will make a list and you will send some soldiers to Yingdu to purchase..."

"Just let Manwa escort you. You don't have to come again. I will naturally return to Yingdu after I settle down the Dandi matters. I have not read all the books in the Chu Palace."

…

After dealing with the fine lock matter, Feng Yun looked at the map again and found a river around the mountain. He began to find animal skins and drew pictures on them, just like when he was in Baiyue, he built Xunyang City in Yao.

Build a place here to house these people.

Naturally, his name, Feng Yun, cannot be called Dan or Danyang, otherwise the Lord of Chu would be afraid that he would be accused of being disrespectful.

"Huh..." The wind blew, rolling through the mountains and forests, the bonfire stirred, and terrifying sounds roared from all around.

"install…"

"From now on, this place will be called An. It was originally able to pacify the evil winds of a place and protect the human race of a place."

After that, finish eating the minced meat and continue drawing.

The diagram is easy, the layout is simple, simple and open, and there is no risk of excessive defense.

After all, the surrounding areas are already at great risk, so there is no need to add more and waste manpower.

"Fengzi, I just heard that Qu Dazai is returning to Yingdu. By the way, I brought the rest of the rewards and purchased important things for Fengzi."

Baili Xi stepped forward and bowed respectfully, and Feng Yun returned the bow.

"Sir, there is no need to be formal. I am not a nobleman now, I am just a traveler."

Baili Xi nodded, smiled and sat down slowly.

Feng Yun understood why Baili Xi came, and said: "I asked Dr. Qu Yuan to buy three thousand lambs, and I will give these sheep to you to raise."

"Three thousand heads!" Baili Xi was surprised.

"No, it doesn't have to be like this, Fengzi, how much gold does this cost!"

One piece of gold costs about fifty shell coins, while a lamb costs five shell coins.

These three thousand lambs are equivalent to three hundred gold.

In response, Feng Yun said: "Mr. Baili, look at..." Feng Yun pointed into the distance, and Baili Xi looked along Feng Yun's hand.

All he could see was darkness, and only the Han River in the distance was still glowing with silver under the moonlight.

"It's a deserted place. There's nothing there, just grass, trees, rocks, and uncultivated land."

"As for us, there are only about fifty people."

Feng Yun knew that those guards from the Chu State did not know how to farm, and he knew it very well.

"Since you don't have big power, use small power to survive first."

"Raising sheep means relying on the mountains. As long as you raise sheep and rely on farming here, why worry about not being able to survive?"

When Baili Xi heard this, he knew Feng Yun's plan and understood that it had been carefully considered.

"Since Fengzi has decided, I will do my best to shepherd Fengzi's sheep and make Dandi a prosperous place."

Hearing this, Feng Yun nodded.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Baili. Please also teach those dozens of people how to raise sheep. When these sheep grow up, no matter how many they are, sir, just go."

Bailixi thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

"It's a cold night in late autumn. Mr. Baili, please get into the carriage and rest."

Feng Yun stood up and helped Baili Xi up.

"Fengzi, you can't..."
