The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Pan Jun found it as soon as she looked for it. She drew out her sword and struck with a clang, and a small crack appeared on the exposed rock.

She thrust her sword in, and with a little force she pried it open, causing the rocks to break and fall.

Xue Shao picked up a piece, squeezed it, looked at it, and nodded: "It's lead gray, and the rocks on both sides are grayish white. It is indeed a silver mine."

He squeezed the stone hard, and it broke into pebbles. He couldn't help but curl his lips slightly: "The silver content is not low."

Chen Liutao and Qu Zhixing didn't know much about minerals, but they believed in Xue Shao, and their eyes suddenly changed when they looked at the stones.

The mine was very large and there were trees growing on it. Pan Jun obviously couldn't let Masuda Shinta give the entire mountain to her, so she inspected it carefully.

In Shinta Masuda's eyes, she wandered around the mountains, then went to the temple on the mountainside to discuss Buddhism with people. After that, she spent half a day in the village and half a day in the temple every day. It seemed that she liked the culture here and wanted to compete with the monks in the mountains, so she decided to stay.

After deciding to stay, she took Wang Cong, Miao Zhen and Zhang Weiyi to the mountain to survey the feng shui and choose a location for building a house.

Shinta Masuda followed them for two days and saw them walking around the mountain with all kinds of things in their hands.

He was a little confused.

Seeing that he seemed curious, Pan Yun waved and called him over to teach him: "We Taoists pay attention to Feng Shui when choosing a house. Cultivation requires communication with heaven and earth and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, the place where you live must be rich in spiritual energy; it must also be compatible with your own aura. Humans have five elements, and nature also has five elements. You need to make up for what you lack, avoid restraint and live in harmony, so you need to survey the five elements; and in order to live comfortably, you also need to survey the terrain. The so-called back to the mountain and face the water, it must be able to block the cold and avoid evil, but also be moist and auspicious, because water promotes life..."

He knew Feng Shui, so Masuda Shinta could understand up to this point, but Pan Yun then talked about how they should determine the direction, survey the good and bad luck of this direction, etc.

Shinta Masuda gradually lost his focus and looked dazed.

After Pan Jun finished speaking, he opened the water bag and drank a mouthful of water to moisten his throat, and asked, "Do you understand, Yitian-kun?"

Masuda Shinta smiled awkwardly, he heard but didn't understand.

He followed them for two days and found that he could understand each word they said, but not when they were spoken together.

Knowing that they were seriously looking for a residential location and had probably already decided to ship from Onsenzu Town in the future, he felt relieved and simply ignored it.

It was because of this speculation that when Pan Jun drew a huge circle on the mountain, although Shinta Masuda hesitated, he still agreed with a heartache.

This is a mountain. It cannot be cultivated and cannot be moved. There is nothing wrong with giving them the other half of the mountain. The houses they build in the future will remain here. Even if the people leave, the houses cannot move away.

Moreover, they would most likely have to build a road up the mountain. He knew about Pan Yun's behavior. She was very kind to slaves. When the time came to build the road, they would need laborers, and they would inevitably have to use the people living down the mountain. If they were paid enough, the people would also have an income.

Pan Yun asked him to make a land deed.

Since they have agreed, they must be generous and thoughtful and do everything well. Masuda Shinta agreed immediately: "Don't worry, Miss Pan, I can do it."

Pan Jun raised an eyebrow: "Don't we have to go through Shan Mingjun?"

Masuda Shinta said confidently: "In Omori Township, the Masuda family can take care of all this."

Pan Yun raised the corner of her mouth with satisfaction. It turned out that choosing the Yitian family was the right decision. She liked to cooperate with smart people so that both sides could get what they needed.

Pan Yun walked to the other side of the mountain, looked down from a high point, pointed at the valley and asked, "Does that piece of wasteland have an owner?"

Shinta Masuda walked up to her and looked down. It was a valley between two mountains, about ten acres in size, with lush green grass and a stream flowing through. It looked very beautiful.

Masuda Shinta understood instantly, his eyes flickered: "This place belongs to the mountain forest. If Miss Pan wants it, the Masuda family can decide to give it to Miss Pan."

"With so many slaves, they must have a place to work. I think this place has good sunshine, lush grass, and water, which is very suitable for farming," Pan Yun said, "They can also support themselves." The next day, Masuda Shinta delivered two land deeds.

Pan Yun was very satisfied, and then he said to Masuda Shinta: "The port must be built, but in addition to the port, we also need sea vessels. Yamana-kun has no sea vessels, so it is difficult for him to get involved in maritime trade."

Seeing her calm face when she mentioned it, Masuda Shinta knew she had a solution, and quickly said, "If we talk about the best seafaring technology in the world, it's still the Shangguo. The Ouchi clan has several ships that were replaced from the Ming Dynasty. They are called waste ships, but they can be used as long as they are repaired."

Pan Yun: "You want to exchange Ming Dynasty ships through me?"

Masuda Shinta hurriedly bowed and said, "Please help me, Miss Pan. If you need me in the future, just use me."

Pan Yun waved his hand and said, "It's not difficult for me to get a ship. I can give you one."

Shinta Masuda's eyes lit up.

Pan Yun said: "But you also know about the construction of the port. We came here for revenge and did not bring any money, so the five thousand taels of money for the construction of the port..."

Masuda Shinta gritted his teeth and said, "As long as Miss Pan can bring a ship that can carry 200 tons, our Masuda family will find a way to open the port."

Pan Yun: "I want half of the port's operating rights."

"This..." Masuda Nobuta hesitated.

Pan Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "A sea vessel costs much more than five thousand taels."

If it wasn't for the purpose of pulling the Yitian family into the water, she wouldn't have brought out a ship.

Masuda Shinta then took a deep breath and whispered, "I have to ask the elders at home before I can decide."

Pan Yun asked him to go back and ask.

Masuda Shinta left in a hurry.

Standing in front of the gate of the villa and watching him walk away, Pan Yun and the villagers passing by on the roadside nodded slightly, then turned and went in.

She asked Gao Zhiming, who was wielding a sword, "Have Wang Cong and the others returned?"

Gao Zhiming put away his sword: "No, you just let them leave the day before yesterday. It takes at least two days to get from here to Nanao Port, and two days to come back, right?"

Pan Yun nodded slightly and said, "Go and inform them that there will be a meeting in the yard in a quarter of an hour. I have something to tell you."

She paused and said, "Bring Zhang Weiliang here as well."

After a while, Zhang Weiliang was carried out and placed on the ground, with his back against the railing.

Zhang Weiliang: …

As if they felt that this was not good for a patient as seriously injured as him, Miaohe took out a futon and placed it aside. The heroes then carried him to sit on the futon and explained, "It's all because of Japan. There's not even a chair, let alone a bed, so we can only carry you out like this."

Zhang Weiliang silently pulled back his sleeves: "I don't mind."

Miao Zhen turned around and came back, saying, "Uncle Junior Master, the formation is ready."

Pan Yun clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention: "I know that you must be curious about why we came to Dasen Township. I am very grateful that you trusted me and followed me without knowing anything. Now that the land deed has been obtained, we will return to our hometown soon, so today we are open and honest."
