Chapter 870: Chapter 27 The Wang Family Gains the Purple Abode! The Green Jiao Transforms into a Dragon (Seeking Monthly Votes)_2 Chapter 870: Chapter 27 The Wang Family Gains the Purple Abode! The Green Jiao Transforms into a Dragon (Seeking Monthly Votes)_2 Even though Wu Shengjun had tried every method to increase revenue and reduce expenses for the Commandery Prince’s Residence, nothing could withstand his father’s extravagant spending like water flowing in a river. What’s the most expensive thing nowadays? It is of course ideals…

“Your Highness need not worry,” Wang Zong’an observed quietly and said, “For this trip to Anbeiwei, I have already brought ten thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, enough for Yinglu for several years. For subsequent Spirit Stones, the Family Head has already sent people to make long-term purchases, so there’s no need to worry about the consumption of Spirit Stones for the time being.”

What a move, dishing out ten thousand Spirit Stones, which are worth a million Qian Gold! The Wang family had even considered subsequent Spirit Stones.

An Commandery Prince and his son looked at each other, both extremely surprised. Wu Shengjun was so relieved that it was almost disgraceful.

Being able to casually come up with a million Qian Gold proved that the Changning Wang Clan’s reserves were far deeper than imagined.

They knew that their Commandery Prince’s Residence, due to high expenditures and low incomes, would already be scraping the barrel if they were to dish out one million Qian Gold at once.

“This…” the complexion of An Commandery Prince turned slightly awkward as he said in a low voice, “Young Clan Leader Zong’an, your Wang family has brought so many talents and resources here to support my plan, I’m already very grateful. Asking you to also pay for the Spirit Stones… Never mind, let it offset the betrothal gift for Yiluo.”

As he spoke, An Commandery Prince’s face turned a bit red and hot, feeling as though he was selling his daughter. But who could blame the impoverished state of the Commandery Prince’s Residence now? As the saying goes, poverty curtails ambition, and even speaking takes an effort.

“Your Highness,” Wang Zong’an shook his head, his expression still as calm as water, “The betrothal gift is exactly that, how can it be mixed with other matters? The betrothal gift for Yiluo is already being prepared by my father and will definitely not disgrace the Little Princess’s status.”

“Additionally, my father mentioned that you need not worry about money. The struggle for the Emperor’s son is not an overnight affair. Your Highness only needs to focus your efforts on accelerating the development of Anbeiwei, and we need to produce results as quickly as possible.”

“Good, good, good~” An Commandery Prince, slightly excited, took Wang Zong’an by the hand and said, “I, Wu Mingyuan, will definitely not let down Master Shouzhe’s expectations. Zong’an, let us together show the world a miracle.”

Previously, when chatting with Wang Shouzhe, he was mostly happy to meet someone who shared his ideals. However, he really had not expected that the support and help brought by Wang Shouzhe would be so substantial.

“Your Highness, don’t rush. My father also had me bring some seeds.” Wang Zong’an said as he took out some small seeds. “These are root alfalfa, which have extremely developed root systems that can reach deep underground. They can withstand high and low temperatures and are highly suitable for planting in sandy soil, used for fixing sand and producing green fodder for cattle and sheep. Over time, they can also gradually improve the soil quality and can be used as a pioneer crop for managing vast sandy fields.”

“Great stuff, vast fields of alfalfa can rapidly form oases and significantly improve the local ecological environment,” An Commandery Prince exclaimed excitedly, mentioning the ecological environment.

This was a new term he had learned while talking with Master Shouzhe.

“Furthermore, though the drought-resistant Pearl Rice from Purple Abode Academy is good and quite drought-resistant, it ultimately isn’t perfect.” Wang Zong’an took out some seeds of pearl rice. “These belong to the ‘Fifth-generation Drought-resistant Pearl Rice,’ a refined version of the original variety. Not only is it more drought-resistant, but its yield is also fifty percent higher. The plants are also tastier and more nutritious when used as green fodder for livestock. These were developed by Little Senior Sister Green Fern after expending a lot of energy and time.”

“This… this is top-quality grain!” An excited Commandery Prince trembled, “I never expected that Green Fern’s Pride had already started researching this, and your Wang family could even obtain these seeds…”

He paused midway through his sentence, suddenly stunned, hesitating and sneaking a look at Wang Zong’an.

To tackle the Great Desert, he had been collaborating substantially with the academy over the years and had met Green Fern’s Pride several times.

He had also heard some rumors about “that gossip.”

Now in Longzuo Academy Changchun Valley, there were only two saplings of the Longevity Tree, one with Green Fern’s Pride and the other with Wang Zong’an, which pretty much explained things.

Additionally, Green Fern’s Dharma Shadow seemed to be a rare rose species while, it was said, Zong’an’s Dharma Shadow was a tree— not just Zong’an, but even Zong’an’s grandson, his future son-in-law Wang Anye, had a Dharma Shadow that was also a tree…

The more An Commandery Prince pondered, the more likely “that gossip” seemed to be true.

Why had the Wang family become so wealthy? Why did they have so many high-quality plant seeds? The gossip had made it very clear—it was because Wang Shouzhe, the handsome and noble-looking Family Head of the Wang family, had charmed the naive Green Fern’s Pride!

She had even borne Wang Shouzhe a son, who was sent back to the Wang family to be raised. To support her clandestine husband and son, Green Fern’s Pride had repeatedly broken the academy’s rules and sold out many of its interests…

She would occasionally stay with the Wang family for a while to reunite with her son! At one point, she even sent Wang Zong’an to Changchun Valley, where he stayed for over a decade.

The academy also considered that since Green Fern was destined to be great and had a broad future, it could only turn a blind eye, doing its best to conceal this affair.
