Qingyundu is crowded with people. Two cement main roads running east, west, south and north divide Qingyundu into four parts, and the streets paved with bluestone divide the courtyards of different sizes into blocks. Most of the residents and families living in the northwest of Qingyundu were moved in when Qingyundu was established in the early years, so this area has an influence that cannot be ignored in Qingyundu.

As one of the earliest families to move into, the Chen family also has a place here. The residences of the Chen clan alone occupy nearly one-sixth of the land here! In addition, the six families of Lin, Feng, Zhao, Ping, Feng and Li, who are vassals, are top forces in Qingyundu.

In the more than 100 years since Qingyundu was established, nearly one-third of them were from the Chen family or the family associated with it, which can be seen as one or two.

Lin Zhiyu and his group turned from the main road to the streets and alleys. Looking at the familiar street scenes, they greeted people they knew on the street from time to time. The heartstrings that had been tense for many days gradually relaxed completely.

As they turned to the street where the Chen family was located, before they could reach the door, the crisp sound of horse hooves had attracted many people to stand at the door. Seeing that it was Feng Delu and his group, everyone couldn't help but show joy.

The middle-aged man with a short beard on his lips slowly walked down the steps and stood in the middle of the street. Feng Delu and others dismounted and led them without waiting for the horse to arrive in front of the door.

As we approached, the middle-aged man looked at everyone with joy and glamour, and laughed: "Old Feng, you are finally back. In the past few days, everyone is almost overwhelmed."

"Lord Chen, God bless you, Feng Delu has fulfilled his mission and brought everyone back." Feng Delu bowed and Lin Zhiyu and others also greeted each other.

This person is named Chen Xing'an. He is the elder of the Chen family and the owner of the hunting hall. He is mainly responsible for organizing teams to hunt, gather and other related matters in the New Kramakan Desert. He is the youngest brother of Chen Xinglong, the head of the Chen family. He has a prominent position in the Chen family and can be said to be above several people. Even in Qingyundu, he is a famous figure.

"The sandstorm a few days ago made everyone very worried. There were already seven or eight teams returning in the city, all of which were killed and injured. The head of the family mentioned you yesterday, worried that you would have a few things." Chen Xing'an patted Feng Delu on the shoulder and said with relief, "Old Feng, you are still capable, and you actually brought all these men back!"

"We will remember the love that the head of the family and the hall master have for everyone." Feng Delu smiled and said, "This time, it is God's blessing. Although we caught us off guard because of the sudden sand storm, some team members were separated, they all gathered together in the end. Especially the little seventh child of the Lin family and Lin Zhiyu, they could hunt a Kuiqing sand anaconda alone and led a saber-toothed lizard with me!"

Lin Zhiyu was undoubtedly the best performance this time, and Feng Delu was grateful that he was able to stand up in danger and solve the pursuit of the saber-toothed lizard, so he also intended to let him show off in front of the clan's manager.

There was a rumbling sound outside the door, and Chen Xing'an's eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled happily, "Okay, okay, this is really good news. Lin Zhiyu... Well, I remember you! Come, you follow me to the hall to hand over the task, and then bring the rewards to let your family go home to rest for two days. All of them will come back to the hall the day after tomorrow, and there will be another reward in the hall."

Everyone immediately cheered, and everyone thanked the Lord Chen for his compassion, and happily followed him through the side door and entered the Chen mansion and came to the hunting hall.

Feng Delu and everyone put out the prey on the horse one by one, and the headless Kuiqing Sand Anaconda was naturally placed in front, most conspicuous.

Chen Xingan frowned slightly. The Kuiqing Sand Cypress only had a torso, but no head of the Cypress. It was obvious that the wound was caused by a gunshot.

But then he felt relieved again. The number of Kwai Tin Sand Anaconda in the new Kramakan Desert is actually quite small, but the number of hunting every year is quite limited. It is because of the slightest movement of this thing, it will sneak into the depths of the sand. Although there is a master hunter who can capture the complete Kwai Tin Sand Anaconda, the head of the navy has nothing special except that it can completely confirm its identity.

The preciousness of Kuai Ting Sand Anaconda is its snake gall and snake flesh. Although snake skin and venom are also valuable, they are nothing compared to snake gall and snake flesh. Lin Zhiyu is only about twenty years old and can hunt Kuai Ting Sand Anaconda alone, and is already the best among his peers in Qingyundu.

Besides, after Feng Delu said, he also worked with him to attract a saber-toothed lizard, which is enough to prove that he is brave and resourceful, and may be the backbone of the Chen family's hunting hall in the future. Why should he be demanding now?

Chen Xingan looked at Lin Zhiyu in the team again, thinking about what kind of reward he would give him in a while to make him feel more attentive to Chen. Although he didn't know if Lin Zhiyu left this time, he caught the dead mouse, but he didn't mind paying more attention to him.

After all, a good hunter who can continuously hunt Kuiqing Sand Anaconda is like a money tree for the Chen family!

He couldn't help but remember the news that the head of the family mentioned to him a few days ago that the demand for Kwai Ting Sand Anaconda in the federal area has been rising, and there is a tendency to be intensified. If Kwai Ting Sand Anaconda had never had a precedent for captive breeding, otherwise it could have become a pillar industry for a family to settle down in the federal area.

Since the Federation has been killed in battle in order to expand its territory and to destroy ferocious beasts in the territory every year, a large number of adult men are killed in battle every year, so the serious imbalance of the male-female ratio in the federal population is also an unavoidable problem. According to incomplete statistics, the male-female ratio of minors in the federal population is still roughly balanced, but the male-female ratio among adults is about 1 to 1:5, and this ratio in the border areas is even more exaggerated, and there are even extreme places of one to five or one to ten. For example, Qingyundu, the male-female ratio is as high as one to four to seven!

In the decades after the human civil war, humans still worked hard to maintain monogamy, but now, this system has completely become a piece of waste paper. Whether it is the federal government or the five state governments, they always close their eyes and ignore it. Instead, they actually maintain the reality of polygamy through judicial cases and explanations.

In fact, social reality determines that it is not possible not to do so. If adult men continue to suffer high casualties for hundreds of years, if monogamy is still insisted on implementing monogamy, it will undoubtedly cause a large number of widows who cannot be remarried and older leftover women who cannot be married in the federal territory.

The reality also requires that humans must continue to expand their territory and ensure that the population grows as quickly as possible. Otherwise, once there is a large-scale natural disaster, humans in the Firefly Gazette system may face the desperate situation of genocide again.

Moreover, the inability of the physical and psychological requirements of a large number of women to be satisfied as they should be, which will also cause a series of serious social problems. For this, the parent star has had countless shocking precedents in the thousands of years of history. In order to maintain the stability of social order, the federal government dare not take this matter lightly.

Therefore, due to the mentality of taking the minority of two evils, the federal government clearly stipulates equality between men and women in the form of law to ensure the rights and interests of women; on the other hand, it turns a blind eye to some aspects, and will never ask if it is really distorted.

It can be said that in the federal territory, unless a man has a high vision or is really useless, he will be stressed out if he gets married.

This also creates another realistic problem, that is, the demand for a certain type of medicine in the market is increasing, and the drugs made with snake gallbladder and snake meat as the main ingredients are not only strong in the medicine, but also have almost no side effects, and undoubtedly become the darling of the market. It can be said that today's Kwai Ting Sha Nang noodle does not have to worry about sales. This is in Qingyundu, if this Kwai Ting Sha Nang is sent to the prefecture city or even the federal capital, it will not be surprising at all.

It’s a pity that he is not a child of the Chen clan... Otherwise, he might have fallen into the eyes of the head of the family and receive special care.

Chen Xing'an thought to himself, but looked at everyone with a smile on his face.

Among the crowd watching, someone looked gloomy and calm. He quietly retreated out, walked out of the side door of Chen's house and looked around, reached out to bring a young man over, said a few words in his ear, and the young man immediately walked away like flying.
