On the third day, the large force of the Imperial Audit Office arrived.

In order to thoroughly investigate the accounting issues in Changshan County, after a series of exchanges of interests, the Imperial Audit Office dispatched their most elite team, along with numerous auxiliary members, totaling 1681 people, to settle in Changshan County.

For the auditing profession, this was an unimaginably large team.

As soon as they arrived, their leader, the Deputy Director of the Imperial Audit Office, Xiang Tianhe, arrogantly announced that they would take over all the statistics and auditing work in Changshan County, and demanded unconditional cooperation from the County Statistics Bureau and the Audit Department.

They also declared that they would implement the strictest audit standards. In order to ensure real-time and reliable data and to ensure full disclosure of the true situation in Changshan County, they would report the county's output to the Empire every week.

Lin Wen didn't pay any attention to them. After all, he didn't have to pay for these 1681 people. Old Xie even secretly increased the price of the food sold to the Imperial Audit team by five times. He dared to claim that a chicken leg with a little pepper and tomato sauce was a special chicken leg from the capital city, selling it for 30 yuan each without bargaining.

The people from the Imperial Audit Office were used to the prices in the capital city and didn't think there was anything wrong. They just kept complaining that the small place was inconvenient and that there was nothing here, and the food wasn't good either.

They rented a building as their office, and besides food, they brought all their own supplies and tools.

As the elite team of the Imperial Headquarters, they quickly completed the preliminary preparations and started their work.

All the departments in the county government were on high alert, and Old Xie and other leaders of the relevant departments were fully prepared for a comprehensive confrontation.

But as the leader of Changshan County, Lin Wen didn't take them seriously at all. He wasn't even in Huaizhen.

He went to Changle Town.

The first phase of the reconstruction of their homeland was nearing completion.

The new homeland was built three kilometers west of Changle Town, bordered by Changpai Village to the north, Niujiao Village to the west, and Changle Town to the east, covering an area of 18 square kilometers.

With the concerted efforts of over 300,000 people, they had spent nearly three months building over 90,000 houses in this mountainous and barren land. They had excavated over five million cubic meters of soil, built a sewage system over 40 kilometers long, and installed over ten thousand water pipes, power cables, and communication cables.

If one hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, it would be hard to believe.

Today, Lin Wen came over and shoveled the last bit of soil, sealing the final cement sewage pipe with a diameter of 1.2 meters. The first phase of the reconstruction of their homeland was considered a great success.

Thunderous applause and cheers erupted, and over 300,000 people sang their favorite song, "No New Changshan County Without Sheriff Lin," as they gathered at the large field outside the new town.

They were here to take the final step and distribute the fruits of their labor.

Houses.

Looking back, the 90,000 houses were neatly arranged in front of them, painted white, covered with red tiles, and equipped with bright glass, just like in their dreams.

Looking back at the past few months, everything felt like a dream. The flood came, the bad guys came, Sheriff Lin came. Life had its ups and downs, like a small boat in a river.

Just three months ago, no one would have dared to say that they could build such a large and beautiful town from scratch in this desolate land.

At that time, their only wish was to stay alive.

Now, not only were they alive, but they could also live better, with a promising future.

No one knew who started it, but everyone shouted together, "Long live Sheriff Lin!"

The sound shook the mountains and the countryside, followed by the loud playing of "Unity is Strength" in the mountains outside the town.

On the battlefield, Fang Dashan maintained order with 3,000 soldiers, and in front of them were over a hundred ballot boxes.

The disaster victims would draw lots to allocate houses on a family basis.

The houses in the town were divided into three types: large houses with a single floor of 100 square meters, medium-sized houses of 70 square meters, and small two-story buildings with 60 square meters per floor.

Adult males, as the main labor force and major contributors, were entitled to a free quota of 50 square meters. Women received wages and could make up the price difference at 100 yuan per square meter. If they didn't have enough money, they were allowed to owe the amount.

The selection of houses followed the principle of freedom, with more refunds and less supplements. For example, if a family had three adult males and they only chose a medium-sized house of 70 square meters, the government would refund them 8,000 yuan as compensation.

This was the fairest distribution method that Huang Mingxiao came up with after much contemplation. The disaster victims could choose freely. Those who needed more space could choose a larger house, while those who needed money could choose a smaller house. If they wanted to open a shop on the street, they could choose a small building.

All the houses had reserved space for expansion, making it very convenient if they wanted to add on. It wouldn't affect normal living.

This was also the ingenious design of the divine plan.

The entire town was filled with perfect reserved spaces, which not only didn't affect normal living but also made expansion very convenient.

The lively distribution continued until the evening. When the last victim happily took away the last 70-square-meter house, the entire resettlement work was declared successfully completed.

At this point, the 300,000 disaster victims finally officially had a new home.

They originally came from scattered villages in the western part of Changshan County, but they gathered together because of the flood. They suffered together, resisted together, labored together, and built their homes together. Emotionally, this was a rare fate.

But objectively speaking, it was also a rare opportunity. The flood destroyed the old order and gave Lin Wen an opportunity to establish a new order.

The development prospects of the new town far exceeded the numerous scattered villages in the mountains. Its geographical layout and arrangement would play a crucial role in the development of Changshan County.

These were the hidden benefits brought by the divine plan.

However, neither Lin Wen nor Huang Mingxiao realized this for the time being.As night fell, Fang Dashan, filled with a thousand emotions, and the staff from the Civil Affairs Bureau also left. They still had some finishing work to do and needed to prepare for the second phase of expansion in the future.

Huang Mingxiao couldn't find Lin Wen and thought he had already left.

However, he didn't expect that Lin Wen was alone, staying outside the wilderness of the town, laughing wildly in the unfathomable darkness.

Of course, Lin Wen wasn't crazy. He really didn't expect that the reconstruction of his homeland would bring so many good fortunes.

At the moment when the distribution ended, a huge number that he had never seen before flashed in front of Lin Wen.

Good Fortune +6101.

The huge number, accompanied by a huge golden light, not only blinded Lin Wen's gold-digging eyes but also exploded his gold-digging soul.

When this heavy good fortune merged into his body, Lin Wen felt incredibly fulfilled, as if his spirit had shattered the void and achieved immortality.

Good Fortune: 14501, Bad Fortune: 239.

It exploded!

So many heavy good fortunes made Lin Wen feel like he was ascending to immortality.

But that 239 of bad fortune was very annoying. But it didn't matter, given time, it would eventually become zero.

The golden and black characters disappeared into the void in a flash.

Another huge golden light spread out in front of him.

The third divine power, open!

Just like last time, three lines of extremely dazzling golden text hovered in the fairy mist-filled mid-air.

【Wisdom Sword Slashes Thoughts】

Wisdom divine power.

Love is groundless, how can there be love without feelings,

Never see again, do not tell the sorrow of parting.

Any opposite sex who has a good feeling for you, you will have true feelings with them. If true feelings are wasted, you will gain a thread of wisdom.

When you have a hundred threads of wisdom, you can form a wisdom sword. The wisdom sword ignores all defenses and directly causes damage to the divine thoughts and the soul.

The more wisdom threads that make up the wisdom sword, the stronger the wisdom sword.

If true feelings are reciprocated, it will produce mixed thoughts, which will lower the understanding and the time affected is determined by the understanding.

【Half Fate Cultivation】

Fate divine power.

The moon dew is fragrant with osmanthus leaves, the body is in love and lasts.

The way is full in the sky, only half if there is fate.

Enhance the perception of fate, at the same time, the increase of the line of fate will slowly strengthen the soul.

【Life Without Sunshine】

Heavenly divine power.

Clouds and mists rise and fall, the sun and the moon shine.

Love is useless, only to part.

If the period is fixed, all kinds of torment.

A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

No rain, no sunshine, only then can it last.

The lower the emotion, the darker the mood, the stronger the soul, and vice versa.

If the emotions collapse and the mood is chaotic, then the soul will disperse.

——

After reading the divine powers, Lin Wen's expression was quite wonderful.

【Wisdom Sword Slashes Thoughts】 is clearly a huge pit.

Only those with a natural bootlicker constitution are suitable for use.

And you can't lick blindly, you have to be able to lick out good feelings.

Only when you have good feelings and then give true feelings, and then be abandoned, can you gain a thread of wisdom.

In case the true feelings are reciprocated, it will produce more mixed thoughts to lower the understanding.

Perhaps only a perennial spare tire can be competent for this divine power.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with Lin Wen.

The most pitiful thing is that you can't even choose actively. As long as the opposite sex has a good feeling for you, your true feelings will go out.

This invisibly increases too many weaknesses. Even if this wisdom sword is invincible in the world, it cannot be used.

【Life Without Sunshine】 is also very pitiful.

Lin Wen studied it for a long time and found that its essence is to make you melancholy and depressed, but you can't collapse and give up on yourself.

Only by staying in a state of sorrow but not hurt can you gain strength, otherwise, it's all weakening.

This is completely contrary to Lin Wen's positive and uplifting nature. He has always been firmly moving towards the direction of slaughtering all immortals and dominating the cultivation world, and always believes that with his qualifications, as long as he can reach the cultivation world, no matter how tortuous the road is, he can ultimately win.

Unless his Dao heart is destroyed, this 【Life Without Sunshine】 is poison to him.

【Half Fate Cultivation】 Although it doesn't seem to have a very obvious effect, it is the only choice after being excluded, and it can strengthen the soul in the physical world, although it is "extremely slow", but it is a bit more than others at the start.

With his thoughts settled, Lin Wen's gaze locked on 【Half Fate Cultivation】.

With a light touch of his thoughts, in an instant, the other two disappeared into the void, and 【Half Fate Cultivation】 turned into a golden light and flew into the third item of the divine power background.

Next to 【No Colorful Phoenix in Body】 and 【Yosuga No Sora】, the four characters of 【Half Fate Cultivation】 lit up.

At the same time, a line of subtle numbers also emerged on its right side.

20000.

This means that the fourth divine power needs to be obtained after 20000 points of good fortune.

Lin Wen looked at his 14501 good fortunes and showed a happy smile.

However, he didn't notice that on the other side of the divine power, in the rolling black air, under the pure black number, 1000, there was another faint number.

252.

And at the top, his bad fortune: 239.
