Chapter 282 It won't give you a headache

"This way some people will become rich, but the majority of people will remain the same, and others will definitely be jealous."

"This is not conducive to the unity and development of the village. Such a thing is naturally not allowed. So I, the village chief, have thought of a good idea. Would you like to listen to it?"

When the village chief heard this, his eyes widened in disbelief: "What did you say? Have you thought of other ways to help the village develop?"

Seeing Lu Yu nodded affirmatively, the village chief widened his eyes in disbelief: "If that's the case, you can say whatever you want."

Lu Yu nodded, looked at the village chief, and said his thoughts seriously and slowly: "Village chief, is it that everyone hears the name of our Holy Soul Village?"

"I am very curious and want to know how the name of our Holy Soul Village came about."

The village chief thought about it seriously and realized that it was indeed the case, so he nodded and said, "It is indeed the case. Some curious people may even delve deeper into it."

Lu Yu nodded and continued, "Should I ask if the Soul Saint of the Holy Soul Village is still alive? Who is he? Where is he? Isn't that right?"

The village chief couldn't understand why Lu Yu originally said that he would help them develop the Holy Soul Village. Was there something wrong with the name of their Holy Soul Village?

Although he didn't understand, he still gave face and nodded. Lu Yu smiled and said, "That's right. We can use this as a gimmick to develop the village."

Not only did these words confuse the village chief, but Luo Shen also showed a look of confusion in her eyes. She couldn't understand what Lu Yu meant.

In fact, this is very common in later generations. It is just the traditional "farmhouse", but it cannot be called that here. Lu Yu said to the two people who were confused next to him: "Our Shenghun Village has the advantage of this name. We can definitely develop tourism."

"He has a large number of employees and there is no shortage of jobs, so there will not be any problem of disunity."

"There are many consumer items here, which can easily develop the economy... We must first create a good environment for our village."

“Let people like our village as soon as they come here, and then make it a reason for them to stop and watch.”

"For example, we can make up a story based on the legendary Soul Sage."

"…It is said that this Soul Saint's mother died not long after he was born, and his father soon married a stepmother."

"My stepmother also brought two older brothers. It's just the three of them, usually when dad is at home."

"They were very kind to this Soul Saint, caring about him and showing him great concern. But when Dad left home to work, their true colors were revealed."

"Not only did they not allow him to have enough to eat, but they also made him do a lot of hard work and did not allow him to go out to avoid having people help him."

"So at first, the villagers didn't know about their evil deeds, because the boy worked all year round and was covered in dust, so everyone thought he was just unclean."

"Later, someone deliberately made fun of him and gave him a humorous nickname. From then on, everyone called him the Gray Boy."

"It didn't last long. My father was working outside when he had an accident. We have been separated ever since."

"From then on, the gray boy's experience became even more miserable... Not only did he have no food to eat, but he was also often bullied by his stepmother and two brothers."

"But even in such a difficult environment, he did not forget to practice - yes, when he was six years old, he had already detected his martial spirit."

"However, the stepmother kept suppressing him and refused to let him practice because the two brothers she brought with her were far less talented than the gray boy."

"How could my stepmother allow him to practice and make him more powerful to make her two sons look dull?"

"But the boy in gray relied on his own efforts and learned about the methods of cultivation from various channels, and practiced diligently on his own."

"As a result, he actually cultivated his soul power slowly, but without the soul ring, it was difficult for him to continue cultivating..."

"As time went by, the people in the village gradually saw clearly the hypocrisy and meanness of my stepmother's family."

"They saw everything the stepmother and her two stepsons did, but they had no choice. In the past, because the boy's father was still alive, they had no way to intervene in other people's family affairs."

"Later, the boy's father died, and all the inheritance was in the hands of his stepmother. If they wanted to rescue the boy, it would mean that the boy would be separated from the family and become penniless."

"Just when they were hesitating, not knowing what to do to help the gray boy, the boy took advantage of his stepmother and took his brothers to the market to buy things."

"He sneaked out and took the initiative to beg the village chief and other villagers, hoping that they could help him and let him go out to practice."

"He has always been aware of everyone's concerns, but he is willing to give up everything at home as long as it allows him to go out and practice."

“When the villagers learned that the boy had cultivated soul power, they were extremely surprised, but they felt even more sorry for what happened to him.”

"So they helped him escape from his stepmother. It was also because of the kindness of the villagers that the gray boy achieved great success later..."

Lu Yu wrote this story in imitation of the later Cinderella: "In fact, this story is just a gimmick edited and hyped to get people to visit the village."

"… and even come up with an ending for this story."

Xiao Bai's voice continued: "For example, later on, this gray boy, after his unremitting efforts, eventually became a Soul Saint."

Even the village chief and Luoshen were very curious about this story. Luoshen continued to ask, "What about the stepmother and her two sons? How are they?"

Lu Yu thought for a moment and said with a smile, "When the stepmother learned that the boy had escaped, she was indignant at first. She thought that the boy could never achieve anything."

"But who would have thought that the news of the boy's success would spread back to the village day by day... until later, his name was known throughout Nottingham."

"Because he successfully became a Soul Saint, my stepmother and two brothers were extremely scared and terrified, so they fled with their family's belongings overnight."

"The gray boy also knew how to repay his gratitude. After his success, he returned to his village and thanked everyone..."

I learned that my stepmother and two stepbrothers had fled with their family assets.”

"As a Soul Saint, the boy did not hold grudges against them. If it were not for their abuse in the past, he would have developed a good character of enduring hardships."

"Perhaps his achievements would not be that high... so he just symbolically clapped his hands three times on a huge stone pillar."

"It symbolizes that he has punished his stepmother and two stepbrothers. This makes the villagers admire him very much, so he left his handprints."

"Of course, these traces, including traces of his past lives, must also be created, and some traces of the girl he grew up with and liked can also be added."

"This kind of storyline will be richer, more three-dimensional and more realistic."

Lu Yu was deep in thought while explaining: "...Of course my story is not perfect yet, we can continue to refine it later."

The village chief was somewhat puzzled: "Your story is very attractive, but there is no trace of such a person living in our village at all!"

"If the surrounding soul masters come here for the sake of reputation, but find that there is nothing they want to see, won't our Holy Soul Village be in trouble?"

Komari sighed helplessly in her heart - Alas, the village chief is a straightforward and honest man. Forget it, since he doesn't know how to adapt, I will teach him myself, which can be regarded as repaying his kindness to me.

So Lu Yu said to the village chief patiently: "Grandpa Village Chief, what you said is right, but who can tell the difference between true and false, false and true?"

"As long as we leave some traces in the village, we can let them figure out the rest."

"Besides, isn't this a legend circulating in our village? We didn't actively spread it around. Others just asked us about it."

"Who can tell whether this is true or false? Even if others find out it is false, what does it have to do with us?"

"Maybe it's just some old ancestor who lied to his grandson, but this is the explanation we have given for generations."

"How do we know that this legend is false? So it doesn't have much to do with us, right?"

The village chief's face showed some disapproval and doubt. Lu Yu knew that it would be difficult for an upright man like him to accept such an idea for a while, so Lu Yu tried to persuade him.

"Grandpa Village Chief, you want our Holy Soul Village to develop and allow more children to go to the Soul Master School and receive education, right?"

The village chief nodded slightly when he heard this. Lu Yu said again: "Although the location of Notting City is indeed a little convenient for us."

"The economic development is much better than that of villages in other cities, but it is only slightly better. It is not enough to support them to attend the Soul Master School."

"After all, we have been selling vegetables for so many years. If it really works, it won't be such a headache for you."

"Now, the surrounding villages cannot do this. Only our Holy Soul Village has this advantage."

"If you want to implement my plan, our economy will have to increase tenfold at least. In the future, the children of our Holy Soul Village will have a better future."

"As long as you have a martial spirit, you can practice!"

"Of course we don't have to go to the Soul Master School, but we can find some reliable Soul Masters."

"Come to our village to teach. As for those with good martial spirits, we will send them to the Soul Master School. The future development of our Wuhun Village will only get better and better."

This time, before the village chief could speak, Luo Shen asked curiously, "Is this really possible? Can we invite someone to come and give lessons?"

The village chief also tilted his head and looked at Lu Yu expectantly. Lu Yu nodded: "It should be possible. In fact, I have been wondering, why can't the sickle spirits and hoe spirits in our village be used as weapons?"

"When there is an invasion by foreign enemies or attacks by wild beasts, don't we all use sickles and hoes to defend ourselves?"

"It's just that this kind of martial spirit is not as powerful as swords and spears, and those beast martial spirits have stronger attack power, but I think as long as it is operated well."

"Their martial spirits can definitely fight, but when hunting spirit rings, they just need to choose the spirit rings that suit their situation."

"But the Soul Master School will not accept students like this, so we need to invite someone to come and teach here, just to serve our Holy Soul Village."

“In the future, perhaps our Holy Soul Village will open up a precedent for martial soul cultivation, and it will also become the village with the largest number of soul masters.”

"By then, even if we don't use the fictitious soul master to promote our business, I believe there will be a lot of people who will come to our Holy Soul Village because of our reputation."

Lu Yu's words completely touched the heart of the village chief, but he still asked with some concern: "But if we do this, will many people really come to play?"

Lu Yu nodded vigorously and said affirmatively: "After all, the number of people who become soul masters is still a minority. In Notting City, there are not only us and the people in the surrounding villages."

"Even many people in the city, most of them are ordinary people, and they are naturally curious about soul masters."

"This story is also inspiring, and I believe it will attract many people to watch it."

"If they want to visit the Soul Saint's former residence and see the three hand prints, they will be charged."

"Of course, if there are only traces of his life, it would be too dull, so we have to develop some other projects."

"For example, if they come from a long way and come to our Holy Spirit Village, do they want to eat?"

"Don't just bring some dry food with you. Let's find the people in the village who cook the best food and put them on the road we have to pass through."

"When making delicious food, the portion of each food doesn't need to be too large, and the price must be set lower. I'm sure many people will be unable to resist buying it."

"This will increase our income, and I believe that by then, the wealthy families in Nottingham who have a little money will also come to visit."

"We can also open another restaurant that looks a little more upscale. The food inside must be better, and we need to hire some decent-looking waiters."

"In addition, we can also add some games and activities, such as letting everyone search for traces of the Soul Saint's life at the same time."

"They can also collect stamps. After the collection, we can give them some small gifts, such as fruits and vegetables grown in our village."

"This can also help our village to increase sales of vegetables."
