Chapter 999 Disappointed
"This is our annual income list for the past few years, as well as all our accumulated spiritual materials."
Zong Shou took it from Hu Zhongyuan casually, knowing that it was probably Ren Bo and Zhang Huai, and asked Hu Zhongyuan to bring it over. A trace of spiritual consciousness swept over and began to look it up attentively, but in fact, he didn't care much in his heart.
Zong Shou has ignored the government affairs of the Dagan Kingdom in the cloud world for several years.
What is the annual income, what is the status of the spirit stone veins, refining materials and elixir in various places at this time, and how much the army has increased. None know.
It is only known roughly, and it seems to be growing rapidly. After the Blood Cloud Cavalry has been hollowed out of the mines of the Blood God Iron, it has expanded to 20,000 giants, and there are another 27,000 sets of Blood Cloud Cavalry armor, which are still stored in the warehouse without an owner.
The simplified version of Tiangang Swordsmen and Tiangang Red Crossbowmen has grown to a scale of 360,000.
The number of innate powerhouses is increasing, and the real Huang Taoist soldiers are also being formed. What Yiqiu meant was that he planned to form 60,000 people at one time.
At this time, there are more than ninety spirit realm worshipers, and there are as many as fourteen fairyland monks.
I really don't know how I can afford to work hard at this time?
With such a huge investment in military power, the Senate Hall never objected?
Zong Shou shook his head secretly, but when all the information in the jade talisman was reflected in his mind by his divine sense, he was slightly taken aback.
"The production of low-grade immortal stones is 7,900 pieces a year. Is this true or not?"
Immortal stones must be condensed from ordinary spiritual stones by monks above the spiritual realm. And behind a fairy stone, there are often millions of spiritual stones consumed.
Seven thousand nine hundred low-grade immortal stones, even under his current control. The sum of the three middle thousand worlds is nothing more than that.
Hu Zhongyuan looked puzzled, and glanced at Zong Shou.
Remembering these, Dagan will send out letters every month to report to Yuanlian Realm.
But he didn't think about it deeply, and said excitedly: "It's because of the great spirit wave. In the past four years, there have only been two cloud lands. Forty-four large and medium-sized ore veins have been newly discovered, but now there is a shortage of mining personnel. These 7,900 immortal stones are all surplus! The preservation of spirit stones will be depleted, so several ministers of the country have agreed together. Please worship domestically, and nearly half of the excess spirit stones will be refined into immortal stones. According to what Zhang Huai said, next year's income .It should be doubled!"
Zong Shou's mouth opened slightly at once, and he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
In other words, just the income from this cloud realm can be worth 90% of all the territories outside the cloud realm?
Suddenly, there was a sense of disenchantment, feeling that he was working hard in the outer domain, and the income of the many territories he occupied was not as good as that of the cloud world at this time?
Kong Yao Zhang Huai several, resisted the containment and oppression of various religions and sects, and forcibly took down Nanfeng Yunlu. It is also in the south of Zhongyang Yunlu, extending tens of thousands of miles.
The increase of Dagan's land nearly doubled, and his achievements seemed to be no weaker than him.
It really deserves to be the top Great Thousand World, known as the 'Immortal World'!
The only strange thing is, according to his "previous life" memory. The psionic energy in the cloud realm, as well as the production of spirit stones, shouldn't have exploded like this.
Could it be that it was also because of him. This inspiration started to enter its heyday decades earlier?
His butterfly just fluttered a few times. He tried to change his own destiny, but caused a huge storm.
The number of spiritual stones has increased greatly, and other refining materials and elixir, etc., are naturally also growing explosively.
It's just because the time is still short, many natural materials and earthly treasures have not really matured because of the age.
But from the jade talisman, the number of various nouns listed still shocks Zongshou!
Compared with the cloud world, the world of Tianfang at this time is really not as good as——
I can't blame so many alien races from other regions in ancient times, they will covet this place.
There is a lot of information in this talisman, and the cultivation base that can be kept, and the spiritual sense only took a moment to browse through it all.
At this time, he couldn't help laughing at himself secretly, the king of a country, as he was, was really a miracle.
"Before this came, Duke Zhen asked me to hand it over to your lord. The Duke's intention was to expand the army by another 500,000 in the next year, with 100,000 yellow rank Taoist soldiers and 5,000 Blood Cloud Cavalry. Fifteen thousand black fox cavalry!"
As Hu Zhongyuan spoke, he carefully looked at Zong Shou's face.
"Seeing the chaos in the cloud world is imminent, I will not increase my military strength, and I will not be able to protect the country. At this time, I can afford it. It's just that this proposal was blocked by the Senate Hall and could not be passed. Although Prime Minister Ren agreed, he also agreed. Couldn’t convince a few councilors, so we had to shelve it.”
Fifteen thousand black fox cavalry? One hundred thousand yellow Taoist soldiers?
Zong Shou gasped, this Qiu Wei, what a masterstroke!
But after careful calculation, if next year, the production of Lingshi can be doubled again.
Really affordable--
At that time, only the cloud world. There are 160,000 Tiangang swordsmen and Tiangang red crossbowmen, and 50,000 Taoist soldiers of the Xuan rank.
This strength is already not weak, it was no more than that when King Xiang raised 200,000 soldiers and began to sweep the world!
With such a powerful army, defeating the big merchants should be as easy as flipping the palm of your hand!
Just when this thought came up, Zong Shou shook his head again.
The land under his rule is like this, the area under the jurisdiction of the great merchants and its subordinate countries is ten times as large as Daqian!
The dividends brought by Lingchao will only be more than that of Daqian!
The number of Dao soldiers increased will only increase.
He built the Dagan Immortal Dynasty by himself, thinking that he had the capital to compete with the big merchants.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the national power of the big merchants has also increased by at least ten times!
With a lot of emotion in my heart, I am very impressed with Qiu Wei's proposal for military expansion. Zong Shou agreed without even thinking about it in detail.
It couldn't be more clear that the cloud world at this time is indeed only half a step away from the chaotic world, it's just a fuse.
It is really gratifying for Qiu Wei to have such a vision and plan ahead.
Temporarily resorting to military force, there is nothing to do——
"The proposal to expand the army is feasible! But the details still need to be discussed."
After Zong Shou finished speaking, he threw a jade pendant to Hu Zhongyuan: "You take this and go to see Yiren, and she will make arrangements."
Hu Zhongyuan's face was immediately filled with uncontrollable surprise, knowing that the matter had already been done.
Zong Shou can appoint one-third of the councilors in the council hall.
Qiu asked him to come to see Zongshou, that's why he came here.
And after Zong Shou left, Xuanyuan Yiren, who directly controlled one of these counselors, was only obsessed with alchemy and basically didn't care about government affairs.
With the support of this part of the Senate, the proposal for military expansion will not be hindered.
※ ※ ※ ※
After inquiring about the situation in the Cloud Realm in detail, I know that in Dagan, except for Zhongyang, the newly occupied land in southern Xinjiang, rebellions are still happening one after another, and there are basically no military incidents.
Even Nanfeng Yunlu has gradually calmed down due to the political clarity and loose taxation.
No worries for the time being, Zong Shou left Hu Zhongyuan at the boundary river, and drove away alone on the Demon God Shuttle. While flying away, he secretly admired.
"Zong Yuan's son, my father really saw him right—"
When others are making great strides and entering the spiritual realm. But only Zong Yuan could bear his temper, stuck in front of the spiritual realm, and let others catch up.
With the spiritual method, he caught up step by step, and within a few years he reached the ninth level.
Then in a battle, he mastered the way of the unity of spirit and martial arts, and used this to break through into the realm of the spirit realm in one fell swoop.
Although it is a few years later than others, its potential is even more limitless.
At this time, due to the accumulation of accumulation, it is advancing by leaps and bounds.
Compared with him, although the rest of them entered the country very quickly, they lost some of their glory.
The demon-dispelling god shuttle has become the symbol of Zongshou, and when it enters the vicinity of the cloud realm, Zongshou no longer uses it, and walks with the sword, changing into Tanqiu's appearance.
The magic weapon of disguise that Wei Xu gave him back then is naturally outdated now.
But today's Zong Shou is a great power of illusion. There are mysterious fox supernatural powers, blood pupil illusion, and even more illusory states of mind.
After changing his appearance, he is the Holy One of the Supreme Realm. If you don't pay attention, you may not be able to see through it.
And as soon as he arrived near the cloud realm at this moment, he could feel dozens of divine thoughts sweeping here.
Identify the identity, part of it is taken back, and part of it is still lingering around.
Most of them had cold and malicious thoughts, and Zong Shou could faintly feel the compassion and cynicism of the masters of these divine senses.
Zong Shou paid attention to everything, and flew away in the direction of Cang Sheng Dao.
"Since Uncle Yuan Jing and Uncle Fan Meng have returned to the Cloud Realm, it's time for that girl to come back too? I haven't seen you for a few years, I miss you—"
The person she was thinking about was Su Chuxue. Without this girl by my side, I usually play and amuse myself, I really feel that life seems to have lost a great joy.
As far as the outskirts of the firmament, one can already feel the tense atmosphere.
All the magic circle restrictions were opened heavily, and there were pairs of monks patrolling outside.
Even Zong Shou was also stopped outside the forbidden formation.
Fortunately, there are still quite a few people who recognize the head of the Cangsheng Academy back then. After it is identified that it is not counterfeit by others, it will be released.
And when Zongshou was about to step into the realm of the sky. I saw a few people who were already waiting outside.
Two of them are Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan who came back one step earlier than him.
Among the other three people, one is a Korean prescription who has become full of vitality and has replaced all his white hair with ink.
It is clear that the calamity has passed, and he is already a person in the holy land. And the one in the middle is Wei Xu, the Daoist of the common people at this time. In the end, he thought it was Mingyu who he had met once.
The three saints are waiting here, and the lord is waiting in person, which is the highest courtesy.
"Junior brother, you really shouldn't come back this time!"
When Zong Shou arrived, Wei Xu turned around and walked side by side with him, with a dissatisfied expression on his face.
"Your intentions are very good, and the senior brother is also very grateful. It's just that this move is really unnecessary. Yuanlian World is now the only way out for the Cangshengdao, and it needs your care in the future. There is no room for mistakes. Why do you need it at this time? , get involved in this storm?"
Zong Shou frowned when he heard this. Could this Wei Xu be so disheartened and lazy?
In such a situation, what is the talk of crossing the catastrophe?
Holding his breath in his heart, Zong Shou's tone suddenly became cold.
"So this time, Senior Brother Wei doesn't even have the slightest bit? Not even the courage to fight to the death? Completely desperate?"
