Bringing the farm to another world

"To be honest, there are just too few people. If we were in the city of Buddha, the situation would be completely different."

"Yes, how have you been lately?"

"It's so easy, hahaha, I don't have to think about gathering soil every day anymore. And the magic array people are pretty good too. I'm not afraid to tell you, my current task is to plant underground palace flowers. Hahaha, I didn't expect that underground palace flowers can be grown and can even produce seeds. All the underground palace flower seeds that I sell are grown."

"Grown from? I really didn't expect that. Alright, I'm not afraid to tell you, I want to see the magic array."

"What is it?" Zhao Hai's voice suddenly appeared. Song Lin and Ling Feng both looked over and saw Zhao Hai coming down from upstairs. The two immediately stood up and bowed to Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai waved his hand and sat down in a chair. Then he looked at the two of them and said, "Sit down, don't be so polite with me. And you, Song Lin, don't be so polite either. Although you've pledged allegiance to me now, we were friends before and we'll be friends in the future. I've already said that by pledging allegiance to me now, you're actually helping me. When I become stronger in the future, I can help you have your own divine kingdom. Don't worry, I keep my word."

Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Song Lin responded. In his opinion, Zhao Hai's guarantee might be true, but it was uncertain when it would be fulfilled, so he didn't really care.

Seeing his expression, Zhao Hai knew he didn't believe him, so he didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned to Ling Feng and asked, "Ling Feng, are you here to retrieve the seeds of the underground palace flower?"

Lingfeng gave Zhao Hai a deep look, and then said, "No, I actually came to pledge allegiance to you. If you can really do what you say, and if there is an opportunity in the future for us to have our own divine kingdom, then I am willing to pledge allegiance to you."

Zhao Hai was taken aback, then looked at Ling Feng with some surprise and said, "Ling Feng, are you serious? You're the one who bought the most underground palace flowers among everyone, and you've been working as a middleman before, you must have made a lot of money, right? Why would you think of joining me?"

Lingfeng gave a wry smile and then said, "It seems that you all misunderstand. You all think that being a broker is very lucrative, but you don't know at all that being a broker doesn't actually earn much, especially for someone like me with no background. Those who come to the Black Sea to trade all have their own large magical artifacts and their own followers. Because you can't fight here, they usually send their followers to make the contact if they want to conduct a transaction. There are also some people who actually know each other, but because they don't trust each other, they agree to trade here. They don't need someone like me at all, so I don't earn much at all. Otherwise, I would have had my own divine kingdom long ago, and I wouldn't still be staying in the Black Sea."

Hearing this, Zhao Hai was taken aback. He then looked at Ling Feng and said, "So you really want to pledge allegiance to me? But if you do, you'll have to do things for me?"

“I know, I’ve actually thought it through these past few days. There’s nothing wrong with it. We’re all at the very bottom of the God Realm. If we can stick together and support each other, it will definitely be better than it is now.”

Zhao Hai looked at him and said, "But aren't we sticking together for warmth right now?"

"It's different. What we're doing now can't really be called banding together for warmth. Although we're an alliance, we still do our own things every day, don't we? But if I become your subordinate, I can help you with your work and allow you to have your own divine kingdom in the shortest amount of time. Once you have your own divine kingdom, you can develop followers. Once you have followers, you can have them help you collect resources. That way, you might be able to make your divine kingdom a large-scale magical artifact in a short time. If you can really make your divine kingdom a large-scale magical artifact in a short time, then you can help us in return, making it much easier for us to have our own divine kingdom."

Upon hearing Ling Feng's words, Zhao Hai raised an eyebrow and then asked, "Judging from what you're saying, you already have an idea? Tell me, what is it?"

Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Ling Feng smiled and said, "You're right. I do have my own ideas. I can give you your own divine kingdom in a short time. What do you say? Will you accept me?"

"Hahaha, good heavens, you knew I'd agree! I agree, from today onwards, you'll follow me. If there's a chance in the future, I'll give you your own divine kingdom." Zhao Hai laughed heartily upon hearing this.

Lingfeng laughed heartily, then looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Alright, from today onwards, I'll be your subordinate. My method is actually quite simple. Don't be fooled by the fact that everyone in our small alliance lives in the Black Sea. It's not because we've offended anyone and are afraid to leave; it's simply because we believe it's safer here, so we don't want to go out. But if we wholeheartedly help you, the situation will be completely different. We can open a shop in Buddha City. I've heard that not only are there shops for rent there, but many low-level gods also live there and can rent houses. We can open a shop there, specializing in selling Underground Palace Flowers. I think many people will be willing to buy them. You can't leave the Black Sea, but we can! We'll help you sell Underground Palace Flowers there. That way, we'll sell a lot of Underground Palace Flowers, and you can build your own divine kingdom in the shortest amount of time. Once you've built your own divine kingdom, you can help us in return."

Upon hearing Lingfeng's words, Zhao Hai understood what Lingfeng meant. He said, "I understand what you mean. Your idea is very good. Opening a shop in Buddha City and selling underground palace flowers is indeed a good idea. You are right. I can't leave Black Sea, but you can. However, with just the two of you, your strength is probably too weak, and it's still a bit unsafe."

At this moment, Ling Feng's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He glanced at Zhao Hai and then said, "We do have a few people, but we can bring in the others."

Zhao Hai was taken aback, then looked at Ling Feng with some surprise and said, "You mean, you want everyone else in the alliance to become my subordinates? You must be joking, that's definitely not going to work." "Why not? I think it's possible. We can bring everyone else in the alliance in, and we can all help you build your own divine kingdom as soon as possible. Then you can help us build our own divine kingdom in return. Isn't that a good thing?"

"But can people believe it?"

“We can sign a contract, if you’re willing. If we sign a contract, then everyone will trust you.”

Zhao Hai glanced at Ling Feng, then said, "Alright, let's do it this way. I'll call everyone else over and we'll discuss it together. If you all agree, then I, Zhao Hai, will definitely not let you down. If you don't agree, then forget it, pretend I didn't say anything."

Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Ling Feng said, "Let me go and try to persuade everyone first."

Zhao Hai waved his hand and then said, "No need, let me do it. If you do it, everyone will think I'm scheming against them. It's better to do it this way and make things clear face to face."

Zhao Hai then wrote to Lingzhu and the others, asking them to come over because he had something to discuss with them.

The three of them then sat in the living room of the Sky-Supporting Tree, waiting for the others. Soon, Lingzhu and the others arrived at Zhao Hai's place. Zhao Hai stood up and gestured for everyone to sit down. After everyone was seated, Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "I've invited you all here today because there's something I want to discuss with you all—the path we'll take in the future." He paused, then glanced at Lingfeng, and continued, "Lingfeng came to see me today. He said he wants to pledge his allegiance to me."

As soon as Zhao Hai finished speaking, Ling Zhu and the others were all stunned. Then they all turned to look at Ling Feng, who nodded, indicating that what Zhao Hai said was true.

Lingzhu and the others all frowned. To be honest, they really didn't expect things to turn out this way. Lingfeng was actually going to join Zhao Hai's side. This was something they hadn't anticipated.

Zhao Hai looked at them and then said, "The reason I called you all here is because there is something I want to tell you. To be honest, I had never thought of this before. It was Ling Feng who brought it up, and I feel it is necessary to tell you all about it."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "It's like this. Lingfeng told me he had a way to quickly have my own divine kingdom. Once I have my own divine kingdom, I will help him and Songlin build their own divine kingdom. I agreed."

Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Lingzhu and the others' hearts stirred. Zhao Hai looked at their expressions and continued, "However, we are short-handed, so Lingzhu proposes that all of you temporarily join us and become my subordinates. Once you become my subordinates, you will help me build my divine kingdom in the shortest possible time. Then I will return to help you build your divine kingdoms. This might be much faster than you building your own. Of course, this is just a suggestion, and whether you agree or not is up to you."

Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Lingzhu and the others were all stunned. Then, they exchanged glances, and Lingzhu asked, "So, do we need to sign a contract?"

His question surprised Zhao Hai, but Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Of course, of course we need to sign a contract."

Lingzhu looked at Zhao Hai and asked, "Then how do we calculate the value of the soil we already have?"

Zhao Hai said in a deep voice, "You can keep them yourselves, I won't take them."

"What if we give it to you? So that you can build your own divine kingdom as soon as possible? What would you do then?"

Zhao Hai was genuinely taken aback by his words, then glanced at Ling Zhu and asked, "Are you serious?" (End of Chapter)
