Chapter 112: Chapter 94: (Revised) Reaping What You Sow_2
At this mont, Tang Shengcai was extrely grateful that he managed to establish a connection with Jiang Yuebai.
Jiang Yuebai escorted Gongsun Zhu and Hong Tao to the mouth of the valley. Gongsun Zhu said, "I heard from Hong Tao that you have found a way to resolve the over-reliance on Divine chanism Stones by Planting Puppets?"
Jiang Yuebai nodded, "Yes, but I have limited knowledge and still need to seek guidance from my seniors and continue experinting to validate it. Besides, with the minor competition approaching, I might not have the ti..."
"No worries, this matter has a profound impact on the path of farming. In the future, not only will Spiritual Cultivators use Planting Puppets, but those Inner Sect and Outer Sect disciples who grow their own dicinal fields will also rely on it. If you can eliminate the drawbacks, it will naturally be a good thing."
"However, since you are a disciple personally chosen by the Sect Master, who values you, you must not slack in your cultivation. The minor competition is more important. Other matters can be tackled slowly. For now, et the needs of Huaxi Valley first, and consider selling externally only if there’s excess. There’s no rush."
Jiang Yuebai bowed and expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, Great Elder, for understanding. No wonder Master Hong always tells
that you are the most considerate and working under you is extrely pleasant."
Gongsun Zhu chuckled, "You have a sweet tongue. Was Hong Tao coaxed onto the ship by your sweet talk as well?"
Jiang Yuebai grinned, while Hong Tao smiled silently beside her.
"Go back now. For matters related to the Woodworking Institute, seek Hong Tao directly in the future."
Jiang Yuebai bowed again and returned to the valley ahead of them.
After she disappeared from sight, Gongsun Zhu glanced at the pond beside them and said to Hong Tao, "You handled this very well. If the other people in the Inner Affairs Hall had even a third of your talent, I would not need ti to retreat and cultivate. Focus on your cultivation. If you catch up with your cultivation, this position will be yours sooner or later."
"Great Elder praises
too highly. This is all due to Jiang Yuebai’s abilities. To say it, when I ca by yesterday and saw the current Huaxi Valley, I was truly shocked. Who would have thought a re twelve-year-old girl could accomplish such achievents?"
Gongsun Zhu replied, "This girl is clever, with a bold mind and big vision, but she can be a bit reckless and presumptuous, thinking herself clever. You need to watch her closely in the future and guide her. Today, she chose
as her target to complain to, and I don’t mind. But if she were to encounter soone more devious, let’s wait and see."
Hong Tao thought to himself, Jiang Yuebai knows how to cater to people intentionally. Yesterday, she asked him a lot about Gongsun Zhu’s temper and preferences. She understands that people need to show so vulnerabilities or small flaws to make others feel at ease.
"Great Elder is right. I will make sure to watch over her in the future."
"Yes, you did well in this matter. The Spiritual Farming Puppet doesn’t count for much, but it is clever and benefits many. This way, we can finally achieve so results in broadening resources and conserving expenditure, fulfilling the Sect Master’s trust. Very good!"

In the Rice Flower Courtyard, Guo Zhen and the other two were like ants on a hot pan. When they saw Jiang Yuebai return, they rushed forward.
Shi Xiaowu, quick with his words, asked first, "Senior Sister Jiang, this Puppet was your invention. Isn’t it a big loss to just hand it over to the Inner Affairs Hall?"
Guo Zhen nodded, wanting to ask the sa. Although tricking Xiao Ankuo and the others today was satisfying, the loss seed too great.
Qii Yue watched quietly from the side, waiting for Jiang Yuebai to explain.
Jiang Yuebai sat down and drank so water, "You all understand the principle of a good person being targeted. Besides, the Spiritual Farming Puppet isn’t all that impressive. We just got ahead of the ga. Once others’ minds open up, who knows, they might invent sothing even more formidable. Besides, farming is our main occupation. Spiritual Vegetables and Spiritual Grains are consumables that we need to eat daily. But the Spiritual Farming Puppet? Once soone buys one, whether it lasts three or five years, or just one—if it doesn’t break, it’ll do. Initially, there’s profit, but once everyone has one, there isn’t any."
"It’s better to abandon this profit in exchange for the Sect’s protection. Now that the Inner Affairs Hall is involved, as long as the Woodworking Institute is here, who would dare to cause trouble in Huaxi Valley? Additionally, I’ve helped the Inner Affairs Hall this ti, so when we sell Spiritual Vegetables in the future, the Inner Affairs Hall will certainly give us so advantages."
The three were suddenly enlightened, looking at Jiang Yuebai with a more admiring gaze.
Guo Zhen praised, "I am much older than Junior Sister Jiang, yet I feel I’ve lived these years in vain, lacking Junior Sister Jiang’s keen perception and bold vision."
Jiang Yuebai smiled, "Brother Guo, there’s no need for self-deprecation. You’ve dedicated most of your ti to researching farming, while my mind is more adventurous, dabbling in many areas, making my thinking more agile. When it cos to farming, I still depend on Brother Guo."
Guo Zhen’s face turned red.
Jiang Yuebai took a sip of water, "Also, Master Hong helped negotiate a deal where I get ten percent of the Woodworking Institute’s sales of Spiritual Farming Puppets, with all materials provided by the Inner Affairs Hall. I am not losing out either."
"That’s good, that’s good." Guo Zhen was all smiles, and Shi Xiaowu nodded incessantly.
Qii Yue furrowed his brows and said, "Senior Sister Jiang, today you have truly offended Xiao Ankuo. He’s a treacherous man, and..."
"Speak freely."
"Three years ago, in Purple Cloud Valley, soone practiced an Evil Dao thod to boost their cultivation and hard three servant disciples. Although the Law Enforcent Hall later captured the Evil Cultivator and sealed their cultivation, imprisoning them in the Heavenly Prison Peak, I’ve always felt that this matter is connected to Xiao Ankuo. He’s been stuck at the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer for years and only broke through suddenly around that ti. The timing is too coincidental. It’s best if you’re cautious around him."
Another Evil Dao?
Jiang Yuebai’s gaze deepened. From Lin Suwan to Song Pei’er, now it’s Xiao Ankuo; Jiang Yuebai felt that a storm was brewing.
"Understood, I will be careful. Thank you, Qii Yue. Brother Guo, please run an errand with Xiaowu. Deliver a set of Planting Puppets and ten Divine chanism Stones to those Spiritual Cultivation Masters who didn’t cause trouble today. As for the others, we won’t sell a single part for half a year, and we will see how they behave after that."
"Alright."
After today’s events, Guo Zhen was utterly convinced by Jiang Yuebai’s leadership, obeying her every word. Not only him, but Tang Shengcai and everyone in Huaxi Valley also felt the sa.
"Qii Yue, co with
to continue learning about the manufacturing of Divine chanism Stones."
