The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 23: Intent on Causing Trouble
As soon as Chen Huaiyang finished asking about Chen Jinshu's reward, the whole audience fell silent again.

Everyone turned their eyes to the two elders.

This made the two people, who were already feeling a little helpless and embarrassed, even more flustered.

Chen Huaiyang also sensed something was amiss and asked with a frown, "What are the concerns, elders?"

"Oh! The family did give a reward. But Elder Wen Yang and I felt that the reward was too little and could not praise Jinshu's achievements. So I discussed with Brother Wen Yang about adding something else." Chen Wenchang looked relieved, with a faint smile on his lips, and the embarrassment he had just felt was long gone.

His eyes also became clearer, making him look smarter.

"Yes! Jinshu has made great contributions this time, so he deserves a reward." Chen Wenyang said as if relieved, looking at Chen Jinshu with a smile.

"The reward given by the family is fifty spirit stones. We plan to give Jinshu a low-grade defensive orb, the Water Moon Orb, as an extra gift."

As Chen Wenchang spoke, he casually took out a bead as white as the bright moon from his storage bag. The bead emitted a bright luster in the palace, and a halo was derived.

Chen Wenyang took out fifty spirit stones.

When Chen Huaiyang saw what the two did, his face turned pale, he sighed softly, and his eyes gradually showed some sadness.

Chen Jinshu looked at the two people's actions at this time and was confused at first, but after seeing the vague look in his uncle's eyes, he quickly understood what was going on.

"These two are trying to drag her down in order to cover up their family's stinginess and negligence!"

The compensation for each spiritual farmer was only more than 30%. Even the spiritual farmer who owned five acres of spiritual land only received fifty or sixty spiritual stones in compensation.

However, the two elders not only rewarded her with fifty spirit stones but also a low-grade gem.

It should be noted that the price of a low-grade gem on the market is around thirty to forty yuan.

The one in front of me is obviously of high quality and should cost fifty or sixty spirit stones.

This means that the reward she personally received exceeded one hundred spirit stones.

How can the spiritual farmers feel balanced when they suffered heavy losses but only received a small amount of compensation?

The two of them are trying to shift the blame.

By then, Lingnong's attention will be on her, so how can he still care about the fact that the family's compensation is too little?

Chen Jinshu was terrified and glanced around at the spiritual farmers.

She discovered that these uncles did not have the resentment on their faces as she had imagined, but were staring at the two elders in front of them with hatred.

That look seemed to want to rip the person open.

Chen Jinshu felt relieved when he saw this. Although the spiritual farmers in Lingjiu Mountain were not very skilled, they were not stupid.

She must have sensed the malicious behavior of the two elders, who wanted to shift the blame to her, a little girl, so there was more hatred in her eyes.

When Chen Wenyang and Chen Wenchang saw Ling Nong's angry eyes, their hearts suddenly tightened, their expressions became complicated, and they fell into silence.

They just thought of a solution in a hurry and came up with a win-win solution that could both reduce Lingnong's dissatisfaction with the family and cover up the oversight.

Unexpectedly, these spiritual farmers didn't buy it at all.

They couldn't find the reason for a while.

"Brother Wenchang, Brother Wenyang! Although Jinshu has made great contributions, she doesn't deserve such a generous reward. Why not let her choose between these two?"

Chen Huaiyang noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly bowed to the two elders and said.

"This girl deserves this Lingshi Jinshu!"

At this moment, someone from the spiritual peasants loudly retorted to Chen Huaiyang. The man's voice was loud and clear, echoing in the spacious hall and reaching the ears of everyone present.

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused the strong emotions that had been pent up among the spiritual farmers.

"Jinshu deserves these rewards!"

"That's right! If it weren't for her, we would have lost everything this time!"

"Why can I only choose one reward after we've agreed on it?"

When Chen Jinshu heard the words of the spiritual farmers, his heart felt like it was being gripped by something. Although his expression didn't show it, his heart was already churning. His originally cold heart was wrapped in a pair of hands, and it became warmer and warmer. His face was dazed, as if he hadn't recovered yet.

Having lived in Ningyu Mountain for many years, I still couldn't get as much warmth as I did in Lingjiu Mountain for three months.

"I wonder what the two elders think?" Chen Huaiyang nodded with satisfaction after hearing Ling Nong's speech and asked the two of them.

Chen Wenyang and Chen Wenchang were both surprised. They looked at each other and finally nodded helplessly.

"Then give it all to her." Chen Wenchang said indifferently.

Chen Jinshu came back to his senses from his daze, walked forward and took the spirit stone and Shuiyue Pearl, with some disbelief in his eyes.

"Put it away quickly. This is what you deserve." Chen Huaiyang looked at her and said with a relieved smile.

"Thank you, Third Uncle!" Chen Jinshu bowed slightly and put all the things back into the storage bag.

When she turned around, she saw the smiling eyes of the spiritual farmers, which were the eyes of elders looking at the younger ones.

Although they did not get their share of compensation, at least they helped one person get the reward he deserved.

"Jinshu thanks my uncle and brother!" Chen Jinshu's eyes turned slightly red, and he suppressed his fluctuating emotions and thanked the spiritual farmers.

"Jinshu, you're too polite. You reported the locusts promptly. You restored the spiritual farm, which had been completely destroyed, to a state of recovery. We should thank you!"

"Thank you very much!" everyone thanked in unison.

"Okay! Go back after getting the compensation. I will lead a team to the market to purchase spiritual seeds in half a month. Those who need to buy spiritual seeds please come and register in two days." Chen Huaiyang sensed that the two elders were in a bad mood, and immediately spoke to the many spiritual farmers.

"Thank you, Elder!" Everyone responded in unison, and then dispersed and left.

Chen Jinshu glanced at the two elders and found that they were also looking at her with some doubt in their eyes.

I really don't understand why Lingnong wanted her to receive all the rewards. It was obvious that they were not very satisfied with the compensation.

She looked at the two of them with a mocking and even cold look, but it was all blocked by Mu Li's white gauze.

……

After returning to Plum Blossom Courtyard, Chen Jinshu took out the Water Moon Pearl as a reward from the storage bag.

The white jade bead in her hand was as big as an egg, but extremely round, with a white and shiny surface.

"I didn't expect to get a defensive spiritual weapon this time. I have all these offensive and defensive spiritual weapons."

Her face was filled with joy as she quickly injected her spiritual consciousness into the Shuiyue Pearl and began to refine it.

Half a month passed.

Chen Jinshu received a notice from her third uncle that they would set off for Hongxiafang Market at noon tomorrow, and asked her to make preparations early.

At this time, she was harvesting magnolia flowers in the spiritual fields of Lingjiu Mountain.

After four months of growth, it finally reached maturity. Although the concentration of spiritual power it emitted was not as high as that grown in space, it could still be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones.

She has decided to leave some space for growing magnolias and sell all the magnolias grown on Vulture Peak.

Of course, the best quality elixirs must be used to refine pills.

"We harvested 298 plants this time! That's pretty good." For some unknown reason, the roots of two plants rotted and they eventually died.

Then she cast the Spirit Rain Technique on the spiritual field that had just been harvested. After a while, the spiritual field was soaked, and some of the spiritual power that had originally dissipated began to slowly recover.

After returning to Plum Blossom Courtyard, Chen Jinshu came to the spiritual plant space with a thought.

I saw that all the acre of purple stamen flowers I had planted had matured. The petals were orange and the stamens were purple. The medicinal effects were mainly concentrated in the stamens.

"Well, sell some of the plants that are not growing well, and keep the strong plants to be used for refining Qi Condensation Pills in the future!" Chen Jinshu thought so, and then ran to the spiritual field and started picking them skillfully.

　Thanks for reading, everyone! There's one more update to come. I tested it today. I'm used to seeing how the results are, and I'm looking at 10,000 a day for the first half month. I can start earning 10,000 a day after completing four rounds of PK, which should start next month.
