However, it wasn't just Li Yaoqing who brought surprises to Li Wei.
Li Yaotie, the blacksmith, didn't fall behind either.
Although he had lost an arm, it wasn't an insurmountable problem for a cultivator.
On the day this kid married Bai Rourou, the Su family presented a grand gift: a prosthetic arm. This prosthetic was a device attached to the arm that could perform simple movements using spiritual energy. However, the downside was that the silver arm was quite a bit ugly and couldn't perform flexible movements. Each movement required the consumption of spiritual energy.
But this was already enough for Li Yaotie to continue his refining!
[ Your descendant Li Yaotie, using 'Celestial Blue Stone', 'Thousand-Pound Sand', 'Gale Winged Tiger Bone', and 'Gale Winged Tiger Inner core', has forged the Black Iron Beast Blood Armor set into a mid-grade spiritual weapon! ]
"It's done, hahaha!"
Li Yaotie, having completed his first mid-grade spiritual weapon, excitedly came to the ancestral hall to report the good news, "Ancestor, although we only have one Gale Winged Tiger, but as long as I work harder to find materials from the Foundation Establishment stage beast, I can continue to forge mid-grade spiritual weapon!"
Looking at the freshly forged set of equipment, Li Wei nodded slightly.
It has to be said, that if a person has a little talent and pursues something they love, it's really easy to succeed.
Li Yaotie is such a person.
Look how happy this kid is... It's like he's getting married for the second time.
"Yes, and there's also the corpses of the Flamewing Bird, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Spider, and the bodies of those experts from Tailin Town buried under the Blood Beast Fruit tree. Soon they'll be nothing but bones. I can use them all for refining, hahaha!"
Hearing this, Li Wei didn't find it strange at all. After all, using human bones for refining is a very normal thing.
Soon, Li Wei's gaze fell on the equipment pavilion of Green Valley Village.
As the Li family and Green Valley Village gained a large amount of spoils of war, they were developing at a high speed every day.
There are already more than a dozen weapon-refiner masters in Green Valley Village, all of whom are Li Yaotie's apprentices.
He also gradually realized that a person's energy for refining weapons was always limited, so he began to cultivate a weapon-refining force for the Li family.
...
"Huh? They're already cultivating spiritual fields?"
Li Wei looked at the game screen in surprise.
Originally, Green Valley Village was full of farmland and raised livestock.
However, after the battle, only a portion of the farmland remained, only enough to supply daily needs. The rest of the farmland was completely leveled, and Li Wei saw in the picture that the villagers of Green Valley Village were burying spirit stones underground.
And some outsiders are inscribing formations on the farmland!
Looking at the event log, Li Wei finally understood the reason.
[After the war, Green Valley Village suffered a shortage of labor, and because they no longer needed to worry about food, Li Dalong decided to stop cultivating farmland. He found a way to cultivate spiritual rice from the Wang family's spoils of war, invited a formation master from the county, and began cultivating spiritual fields.]
[One acre of spiritual field requires 10,000 spiritual stones to maintain for ten years.]
[Your descendants have consumed 300,000 spirit stones to cultivate 30 acres of spiritual fields.]
Li Dalong asked him about this matter. Spiritual fields also exist on Earth. They produce rice, corn, and other grains filled with spiritual energy, which can strengthen the body and prolong life when consumed.
Ordinary people have a lifespan of less than a hundred years, but if they regularly consume spiritual rice, their lifespan can reach over one hundred and twenty years.
It can also slightly increase the speed of cultivation.
This kind of stuff is usually eaten by the rich. Coincidentally, we obtained a large amount of spirit stones from the Hu family and the Wang family. It's perfect for cultivating spiritual fields. Whether we sell it or use it ourselves, it's a good deal.
"When the family makes more money, it will be great if all of Green Valley Village is filled with spiritual fields."
Obviously, the thirty acres of spiritual fields are far from enough for Li Wei's appetite.
Then Li Wei continued to look at the event log.
[Wang Ergou, a villager of Green Valley Village, has broken through the first level of Qi Refinement!]
[Villager Cai Xukun broke through to the first level of Qi Refinement, and your descendant Li Yaowen rewarded him with the cultivation technique "Wang Family Body Tempering Manual".]
[Villagers...]
In a courtyard in Green Valley Village, Li Yaowen was sitting under a peach blossom tree, and the villagers of Green Valley Village were lining up in front of him."Fourth Miss, this is this year's tax silver."
"Is it the Wang family? Your family's Wang Ergou Fought bravely in Tailin Town last year, so you don't need to pay taxes. Also, since you have two children, please take a copy of the 'Wang Family Body Tempering Manual'."
"Thank you, Fourth Miss."
"Next."
"Fourth Miss, I'm here to apply to join the guard. I've reached the Qi Refinement stage."
"Application denied. You are the only one left from the Liu family. Alright, you go be an instructor first, teach the village children how to cultivate. You'll get medicinal soup as a salary, which can speed up your cultivation. When you have children, come apply again."
"Thank you, Fourth Miss."
"Next..."
After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, Li Dalong has obviously become a strategic-level master. He doesn't appear in public at all, and many things have been handed over to Li Yaowen.
However, this is the norm for families. Masters are meant to be hidden.
They are always cultivating in seclusion, and at the same time serving as a trump card for the family.
However, Handing over the family to Li Yaowen to manage was obviously the right choice.
Under Li Yaowen's arrangement, the entire Green Valley Village and the Li family have achieved such a peaceful and stable development. Everything is well-planned.
