Chapter 750 (Finding Ways to Increase the Population)
Looking at Tang Wei, who seemed down, Wei Chang gently held her delicate hand and said, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously."
"Uncle Wei, I don't like such jokes," Tang Wei said seriously.
Wei Chang also noticed that the joke went too far, "Okay, I won't do it again."
"Uncle Wei, I want to have a child," Tang Wei decided to be bold. "Just tell me, will you give it to me or not? I won't waste time.""A child?" Wei Chang was puzzled. He had never thought about having a child before.
Tang Wei nodded, "Yes, a child."
"Let's talk about it after this mission is over," Wei Chang hesitated. Having a child was a big decision, and he didn't want to rush into it.
Tang Wei just wanted to enjoy the process of having a child, but to her surprise, Wei Chang didn't fall for it. What kind of man could be so straightforward!
After being in a relationship with a boyfriend for five or six years, and not even a hint of intimacy, how desperate must she be?
Love also needed nurturing; the two elements had to come together for complete happiness.
"Stop right there!" Just as they were talking about having a child, a city guard in bronze armour shouted.Wei Chang and Tang Wei looked at the scruffy-faced man, feeling puzzled. There were many people going into the city, so why were they being stopped?
The surrounding guards looked at them with disdainful smiles, as if they were used to this.
Mainly, Tang Wei's appearance caught their attention, making things difficult for her.
Wei Chang and Tang Wei were on a mission, so they had to be cautious.
"What's the matter, big brother?" Wei Chang acted skillfully, adopting a humble demeanour, which seemed quite convincing given their simple clothing, making them appear easy to bully.
"Where are you from?" The guard asked sternly, his eyes fixed on Wei Chang, seemingly trying to exert some pressure.
Wei Chang appeared "anxious and uneasy," pulling Tang Wei behind him, and Tang Wei looked scared, which pleased the guards, as they enjoyed seeing people fear them.
"Big brother, we escaped from Valoris," Wei Chang said 'apprehensively.'
"Valoris? Is that small place still around?" The guard sneered, seemingly uninterested in Wei Chang's reply.
Wei Chang lowered his head without saying a word, while Tang Wei tightly held onto his clothes, looking helpless as if seeking protection.
Their acting skills were impeccable.
The guard extended his hand, indicating that if they wanted to enter the city, they better be smart about it.
"Big brother, we don't have any gold coins on us," Wei Chang said.
"Then get lost! People like you entering the city only waste Divine Steppes's resources," the guard coldly replied, tightening his grip on the spear in his hand, as if he was about to take action against Wei Chang's reluctance.
Around them, there were others like Wei Chang, who heard the guard's words and had a slight change in expression, but they kept their heads down and quietly entered the prosperous Divine Steppes.
As Wei Chang was contemplating how to enter the city, a luxurious carriage suddenly stopped, and a melodious voice came from inside, "What's going on?"
Seeing the carriage's status, the guard immediately knelt down. It was the carriage of a count, a prestigious existence in Divine Steppes. Moreover, judging from the voice, it seemed to belong to the count's daughter.
It was rumoured that this count's daughter was a genius. Wasn't she supposed to be at the Supreme Spirit Sect? Why did she suddenly return?
"Miss, there's nothing wrong," the guard said nervously.
"As long as everything is fine," the girl's voice carried an elegant charm, and even from her voice, one could sense her kindness.
"You two, come with me into the city," the girl's voice sounded again, which relieved Wei Chang, as they were now entering the city through a proper channel.
Wei Chang and Tang Wei followed the carriage into the city.
"Uncle Wei, this girl in the carriage seems formidable. Should we take this chance?" Tang Wei whispered, seeing an opportunity.
Wei Chang's mission from Your Honor had only one purpose!
To make Divine Steppes send troops to attack the Voidless Empire, and Ye Hua wanted to start a war to establish his reputation in Northern Chill.
Of course, Ye Hua knew that when his Voidless Empire grew stronger, Divine Steppes would naturally come to attack. However, that would take too long, and he had to arrange for one of his own to enter Divine Steppes, spread rumours, and cause disturbances...
Wei Chang knew that Your Honor was eager for a war, so he needed to complete the mission as soon as possible.
The original plan was to spread rumours about the Voidless Empire inside the city, which would inevitably reach the ears of the Divine Steppes.
But encountering this powerful girl, Wei Chang had another idea.
"Let's see how the situation develops," Wei Chang whispered back, and the two followed the carriage as it went on.
Wei Chang and Tang Wei noticed that Divine Steppes was indeed prosperous and overcrowded. The housing prices must be exorbitant.
Compared to the Voidless Empire, Your Honor's territory was too desolate. Even if they attracted people from nearby villages, it was still sparsely populated, which was a fatal disadvantage.
Ye Hua was currently trying everything to increase the population. He even thought about arranging a monster to attack the city, flattening the other three kingdoms, and then sending all the people to his territory. That would be perfect.
But such a method seemed like cheating. Was Your Honor that kind of person? Of course not! He wanted people to come to his territory willingly.
He offered them various benefits, social security, and resident treatment. He would simply ask if they were coming or not!
The carriage slowly arrived at the western part of Divine Steppes. Wei Chang and Tang Wei noticed that this area was full of large courtyards and mansions, where the dignitaries lived.
Not far ahead, the carriage stopped in front of a mansion, and Wei Chang looked at the signboard.
Mu Manor.
At the bottom right of the signboard were two characters.
Countess.
"Uncle Wei, it's quite a big deal, a countess," Tang Wei whispered.
Wei Chang nodded. Men, sons, counts, marquises, dukes, and kings.
The Mu family was a count's family, and they were prominent in Divine Steppes.
As a maid got down from the carriage, she placed a small stool next to it and then reached out her hand.
A delicate hand gently held the maid's hand and stepped down from the carriage onto the wooden stool.
Wei Chang looked at the girl, who was probably not over twenty years old. Her skin was fair, and she had rosy cheeks, a graceful and ethereal temperament, beautiful without being flashy, and her whole body seemed pristine, like a white lotus bathed in snow on a mountain. A smile played at the corner of her mouth, giving her an approachable and sweet charm.
Mu Ran looked at Wei Chang and Tang Wei behind the carriage and was amazed when she saw Tang Wei. "Such a beautiful girl you have with you."
"We are..." Wei Chang began, and then, putting on his acting skills, he said, "Miss, my wife and I have just arrived in Divine Steppes. We are unfamiliar with the place, and it was thanks to the help of the young lady that we could enter the city. I may not know much, but I'm strong and capable of doing wood chopping and other laborious work. My wife can cook and prepare meals. We hope the young lady can take us in." Wei Chang said everything in one breath, then lowered his head along with Tang Wei, feeling a bit nervous.
