I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 728 Acquisition
Although Prince Harder is His Royal Highness the Grand Prince, he should be the most likely person to inherit the position of King in terms of order.

However, he couldn't stand the old king's favorite son.

Therefore, it is still unknown which prince in Wudu can take that position.

The Ning family wanted to go to the west and north, although they were very poor there.

But at the same time, there are fewer disputes.

As a partner of the Ning family, John naturally didn't want anything to happen to Ning Pengpeng and the others.

After all, if something really happened, he couldn't explain it to Fourth Ning.

Although he took refuge in Prince Harder, he was still a businessman after all.

On balance, it is the best thing to let the Ning family hide out now.

Seeing that John agreed so happily, and thinking about the turmoil in the city during this period of time, Ning Pengpeng knew that there must be some action from above.

In this case, she naturally accepted John's affection, and left the manor with everyone the next day, leaving only some servants and slaves.

However, Ning Pengpeng did not expect that Anna would leave with them.

Anna was not aware of the abnormality in the city, but felt that she and Ning Jin'er really hit it off. Since Ning Jin'er wanted to go out to play, she naturally wanted to go with her.

She wouldn't say that it was because she heard how wild the men in the west were, so she wanted to open her eyes.

After Ning Pengpeng and the others left, about half a month later, the fog city changed.

Rao, Ning Pengpeng and the others were so far away from Wudu, and they also got news from Wudu in the town where they settled down.

This news made Ning Pengpeng couldn't help thinking.

Because, the old king died.

Then, Prince Harder, the first in line heir, and Prince Ide, who was most favored by the old king, fought for the throne.

In the end, Prince Harder won the throne with the support of Armand.

However, this throne is a bit wobbly and not so secure.

Because Prince Yide was not caught, but was rescued by his confidants and ministers who supported him.

Although he escaped from Wudu, it doesn't mean he won't make a comeback.

And Armand, who supported Prince Harder, was also a very big blow to him because of the previous monthly salary that caused the fighting among his subordinates.

The most important point is that some of his soldiers are now distracted.

Those who did not participate in the previous military battles also all played wisely to protect themselves.

If the knights are summoned by Prince Yide, it is still unknown whether the fog will be able to hold it at that time.

For Ning Pengpeng, since John has taken refuge in Prince Harder, she naturally hopes that Prince Harder can gain a firm foothold.

However, with Prince Yide around, Prince Hard probably didn't have the heart to think about anything else in order to deal with this younger brother.

For the Ning family, it might not be a good thing.

After all, when the snipe and the clam compete, the fisherman benefits.

Ning Pengpeng doesn't know who will win between Prince Harder and Prince Ide in the future, but in this struggle, she can fish in troubled waters.

Sure enough, on the road ahead.

The closer to the west, the large piece of land is covered with barren weeds.

As long as they asked a little bit, and learned that Ning Pengpeng and the others had the intention to buy, most of them would happily sell them at an ultra-low price.

Of course, there are also people who deliberately charge high prices because they don't look like people from here.

Such a person, Ning Pengpeng asked someone to go out directly.

Those who were not convinced wanted to sneak attack in the middle of the night, but Ning Yongkang and his guards beat the crap out of them.

It can be said that Ning Yongkang became famous in the first battle.

Later, when they arrived at the next town, someone had already inquired about Ning Yongkang's appearance, and when they saw him, they shrank their necks and dared not speak loudly to the Ning family.

I'm afraid that if this evil star is not happy, they will slaughter the whole town!
At the beginning, Ning Yongkang didn't know that he had got the title of evil star, so he was very happy that this group of people saw them very interesting.

When he later learned that the group of people who had been beaten up by him actually ruined his reputation outside, they almost made Ning Yongkang's nose crooked!
When Ning Pengpeng and Ning Jin'er learned about this, they staggered with laughter.

Later, seeing that Ning Yongkang was really angry, he smiled and comforted him. It is much better to be feared than to be bullied.

Thanks to Ning Yongkang's open-mindedness, thinking about what his grandmother and sister Jin'er said, it was true, so he put this matter behind him.

However, because of Ning Yongkang's reputation, it became easier for Ning Pengpeng to exchange pearls for land in the following towns.

After Ning Pengpeng bought four towns from those nobles, he stopped going west.

Although she knew that if she went further west, she could get more land and more slaves.

Ning Pengpeng felt that he couldn't become a fat man by eating in one sitting.

If the land covered by these four towns can be harvested well, it is enough to feed tens of thousands of troops.

Moreover, no matter how much land is exchanged, it will be useless if there is no one to manage and plant it.

She has to grow food in these barren lands before she can attract people.

Ning Pengpeng hoped that the towns he bought would not only have slaves, but also civilians who couldn't get enough to eat.

This time, Ning Pengpeng has already made up his mind about what to do next when he is going to the west.

So, when those lands were plowed, Ning Pengpeng asked Ning Jin'er to lead people to distribute all the corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes.

The crops passed from here to the Great Jin Dynasty came back to be planted again.

The local people are not unfamiliar with these crops.

However, because the land is barren, even if it is planted, the yield is not much.

Of course, the most important thing is to turn over a large amount of output, and the remaining amount is not enough to make seeds for the next year.

Originally, the big guys thought that the new master had some ability to keep them from starving!
Unexpectedly, the original crops were still planted.

Not even wheat.

You know, the bread made of wheat flour is the most commonly eaten here.

However, despite their disappointment, they discovered something different, that is, the method of planting was very different from what they had planted before.

In this regard, many people who have been farming all their lives have expressed doubts.

However, the land is not theirs, and they have to do what the new owner asks.

Otherwise, I'm afraid he will have to be kicked out of town.

Although the land here is barren, their ancestors have lived here for generations, and they can't do it if they are asked to move away.

Therefore, even if they have doubts and unwillingness, they have to do it.

Some people even cried bitterly while farming.

Thinking of planting like this, if the harvest is not good, how many people will starve to death?

　Ask for a monthly pass, please!
