Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

This efficiency is simply astonishing.

”Even someone like the county magistrate and his advisors want to be renowned through the ages, yet there are people who cling to trivial gains, unconcerned about having their graves dug up after death. This is typical shortsightedness.”

Currently, Yuchi is unaware of the exact population of Xufu Town, but it is evident that the population has more than doubled, seemingly reaching around 200,000.

In his previous life, a population of 200,000 would be considered small, as some exaggerated neighborhoods housed millions. However, living and surviving are different matters. In these times, residences are spacious, and population density is far less than in his past life. This necessitates expansive town planning, requiring higher demands for roads, healthcare, and more.

”This isn’t the final effect yet. According to the advisors, once Xufu Town truly rises, all surrounding towns will be absorbed, and its population should reach around 1.5 million. With such a population, even if Xufu Town does nothing, outsider numbers will continue to grow. Once it reaches two to three million, it will be comparable to Jiangzhou City.”

”And once Xufu Town is renamed to Jiangnan City, its capacity for absorption will become even more exaggerated. Then I will relocate the Immortal Robe Pavilion from Jiangzhou City to Jiangnan City, and use some means to eliminate former figures like Yuan Wansong and Chen Weiran. This will not only avenge Xun Yu but also transform and assimilate Jiangzhou City from the bottom up.”

”Once Jiangzhou City is assimilated, how far away will other cities be? At that time, everyone from these cities will flock to my Jiangnan City, creating an even more picturesque scene... Yet, the stakes here will be staggeringly high.”

Yuchi swallowed, dodging a pile of dog poop and bypassing several rotting vegetable leaves on the ground. Heading toward the Wei Family residence in Xufu Town, it was obvious the town had a sizable population, but the quality was somewhat lacking. At least it fell short compared to his past life; efforts needed to start with the young, as the older generation, smug in their age, refused to listen.

At the very least, they shouldn’t be ”wandering around aimlessly,” it was too foul.

”The sewers definitely need improvement.”

...

”Boo hoo hoo!”

”Boo hoo hoo!”

”Uncle, you’ve finally returned!”

Little Ximo clung onto Yuchi, crying as if her whole world had collapsed, like Yuchi had been gone for thirty years and suddenly crawled out of a grave.

Mucus and tears spread over Yuchi’s shoulder as she wiped them on his clothes.

Little girl, I’m still alive... Yuchi embraced little Ximo, sensing her growth with his increased cultivation power. She was obviously eating well, and in another few years, she might surpass Shanlan in height.

Huo Yuluo: ”Just tell me if you like it!”

Yuchi: ”I do like it.”

”Uncle, where have you been? Did you miss little Ximo?” Little Ximo cried pitifully as if the whole Wei Family was mistreating her. Though she used to get along well with the maid, seeing her now approach, she shrunk further into Yuchi’s embrace, crying even louder.

It was as if the maid were a villainous figure, ready to prick her with needles.

The maid stood awkwardly beside, neither crying nor laughing, finding no one could take little Ximo away now that uncle was back. The little girl was incredibly attached to her third uncle, clearly aware of who was truly in charge.

”Thank you for your hard work,” Yuchi said with a smile to the maid. Her name eluded him, but he remembered she was chubby before leaving, now looking much thinner, even losing considerable hair. It seemed little Ximo was quite hard to handle.

”It wasn’t difficult!” the maid promptly replied, eagerly accepting the silver taels from Yuchi, her eyes lighting up.

It’s the truth; talking nonsense amounts to nothing. Even if you recognize me as your father or mother, what does it achieve? Better to receive some useful silver bits! With enough money, my life is yours.

”Haha, go rest for a while.”

Yuchi laughed.

The maid nodded repeatedly, clutched the silver happily, and left.

Soon, the sound of little Ximo, laughing like an air raid siren, filled the Wei Mansion. ”Gah gah gah gah,” such loud laughter, as if she had never laughed her whole life. Mischievous and clingy to her third uncle, she climbed from his embrace onto his shoulders, then onto his back, finally sitting atop Yuchi’s shoulders, grabbing his head and laughing maniacally.

”Only little Ximo is able to sit on his head; who else could do so?”

In Yuan’Er’s courtyard, the young girl had grown even more beautiful. Despite increased duties at the Immortal Robe Pavilion, she enjoyed a few months of peace, nurturing her beauty akin to an ideal classic beauty — elegant, exquisite, and exuding an irresistible kindness and gentleness.
