Chapter 835: Relief
When the dignitaries who had been invited to meet all left one after another. The atmosphere in the entire hall suddenly became extremely dignified.
Feng Taiji and Zhao Yanran looked at Zong Shou with ashen complexions and some doubts.
Before, it was to save face for this guy, and I didn't want this person from Yuanlian Realm to see the differences between them.
Therefore, he never opened his mouth to interrupt the words that questioned Zong Shou.
At this time, the outsider is no longer there, so naturally it should be time to settle accounts.
"Your Majesty is so generous, the national tax has been reduced by a full 30%!"
Even after the battle in the deep underground lake a few years ago, Feng Taiji's temperament has calmed down a lot. At this time, there was a sense of sarcasm in the words.
As for the voluntary matter of the various countries, he was even more lazy to talk about it.
"There are also these kings chosen by your majesty. They are all outstanding people in Yuanlian Realm, full of ambitions. Once this generation of people takes power, they will definitely not be willing to be manipulated by others!"
Between the words, there is a slight worry. Surrounded by a pack of wolves, Zong Shou just didn't think it was enough trouble.
Zong Shou smiled heartlessly: "Brother Feng, what use is this national tax to us? Can it be used in the current situation?"
That Feng Taiji raised his eyebrows, the layman Jiujing collects the people's tax to support the army.
Without a huge army, it is really difficult to resist the invasion of the surrounding countries.
Immediately, my heart moved. For them, these taxes are really of little use.
There are only 300,000 soldiers, even if they are temporarily recruited in Yuanlian Realm. Even when he has been squeezed for hundreds of years and the people are in dire straits, he remains loyal.
Like Jiujing Layman, he recruited soldiers from his original small thousand world.
Now most of them have been taken away by those escaped spiritual monks.
"Looking at the seven countries alone, they really need to recuperate and let them take a breath. Besides, the people of the seven countries are in panic now. If it is not such heroes, how can they stabilize the situation within a month? Only mediocrity, I only know Obedience is good, of course. But now, we are in a dangerous situation—"
Knowing Feng Taiji, he is an extremely intelligent person, so Zong Shou only touched on it and didn't say much.
Feng Taiji was also thoughtful, his eyes didn't turn around, and a little bit of clarity flashed across.
That's true! The people chosen by Zong Shou, apart from their talents, all have the same characteristic - that is, they hold great power and have sufficient resources and contacts.
It is true that in the shortest possible time, he can control the overall situation, unite people's hearts, and resist foreign aggression.
Then the 20% tax is quite meaningful——
"This test is good, but it can only be used for now. There will still be some hidden dangers in the future. How will we control the seven countries in the future?"
"Why do you need to control, let these people be willing to work for us."
Zong Shou laughed: "It's not up to them!"
Feng Taiji thought, Sure enough, the 20% tax has restored the hearts of the seven people.
It also made the new lords of the seven countries have to do their best,
Now that he has become the king of a country, although his status is noble, he has completely lost the room for change.
If Dagan withdrew from Yuanlian Realm, then their courtiers might survive. The seven monarchs headed by He Daoren have no hope of survival.
Even if it is for your own life, you need to work hard together.
As for the future, if the Yuanlian Realm is in hand, there is no need to care about these seven people——
I thought to myself that this is probably the difference between him and Zong Shou, although this guy claims to be unwise, he is tolerant. He is also good at controlling the general trend, so that people will serve him whether they are willing or not.
Compared with this one, he, Fengmou, is indeed narrow-minded.
No wonder this person, in just a few years, has such a foundation.
Shaking his head slightly, Feng Taiji felt a lump in his chest, which finally disappeared.
However, there is one more thing that still needs to be carefully considered.
"That's all, but Feng Taiji really doesn't know, why does my Jianzong want to open a mountain to recruit disciples in this Yuanlian Realm?"
Zhao Yanran also snorted coldly: "And I, Cang Shengdao, when will it be Jun's turn to decide?"
In fact, as Zong Shou, he can naturally be the master.
But accepting people from Yuanlian Realm as disciples is always unimaginable.
But seeing Zong Shou blinking in confusion, he looked at the two of them in astonishment.
"Could it be that the two of you are more than that, that guy Cifang has already selected a site in the Yuanlian Realm, and is planning to open ten Buddhist temples in one go?
Feng Taiji raised his eyebrows, he had heard a little bit about this matter, but what does it have to do with them accepting disciples?
Zong Shou then asked with a smile: "Then let me ask you again, why did you come here? Is the conquest of other worlds to plunder resources, or to strengthen the foundation of the sect? After taking this world, how to defend it? Is Yuan Lian Outside of the world, Jianzong is not going to make further development?" The population of the cloud world is very limited. Really want to be like the Lu family, according to eight hundred worlds. Inevitably, countless monks and countless troops are needed.
Only the power of the cloud world can't provide it.
That Feng Taiji was stunned, apparently also awakened.
Continuing to open up the outer domains, I didn't think much about it.
However, it would be nice if there could always be such gains from the Yuanlian Realm.
The power of Jianzong's seven gates, a Yuanlian realm, can still be taken care of.
However, if there is some foundation in this world, it will undoubtedly reduce the pressure on the sect.
Disciples in this world can also choose the best ones——
Speaking of which, the same is true for Buddhism.
Thinking of this, he still frowned: "People in the Yuanlian Realm have different physiques from my people in the Cloud Realm."
"It's the same with minor differences!"
Zong Shou shook his head. He had always suspected that the people from the Cloud Realm might also have moved in from other regions.
Why are races so similar?
It seems that the Lu family is almost the same as the people in the cloud world.
"Brother Feng's ability, should we not be troubled by this exercise?"
Feng Taiji's teeth became sour when he heard the words, his complexion turned blue and white, and finally he clenched his teeth and said: "I have to ask the elders in Qiongjing and the sect to make a decision on this matter."
If Yunjie really agrees, this cultivation method will also need to make those holy and divine realm experts in the door have a headache.
He secretly felt that something was wrong, it was just a small attempt by Jianzong to follow Zongshou. See if you can plunder some resources from the outer domain to benefit the sect.
How come at this moment, it seems that something has changed.
Zong Shou laughed, most of the sword sects above the spiritual realm had traveled to foreign lands, and their knowledge was much wider than that of Feng Taiji. Then he looked at Zhao Yanran again: "In Yuanlian Realm, there is no Daoist Confucianism. There are not many places where people can let the common people preach. Isn't the environment here suitable for the spread of your religion? If you can fully rely on Yuanlian, Gu Ke will place one of the states in the hands of Cang Sheng Dao."
Zhao Yanran had a troubled expression on her face, she had no interest in the teachings of Cang Sheng Dao.
However, knowing these words, if those common people and Taoist disciples heard about it, they would be ecstatic, and even more excited.
Even those elders want to be happy. Most likely, it would be the comfort of the old man, who loves Zong Shou more and more.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Yanran couldn't find a reason to refute, and finally shook her head with a strange expression.
"It's tax cuts, apprenticeships, and the exchange of spiritual objects. How do you feel, this time we are not here to collect the world of Yuanlian, but to do good deeds?"
Fortunately, she was ready a month ago. If necessary, kill them in Yuanlian Realm.
She, Zhao Yanran, never lacks Shura methods.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I have always loved the people like my son, and established the country with benevolence and filial piety. Since the Yuanlian Seven Kingdoms are already vassals, then the people of the country should be treated as their own people. How can we do it? thing?"
Zong Shou heard the words with a straight face and a sonorous tone, as if he was very angry at Zhao Yanran's words. He also has a face full of justice.
"Yan Ran, you have to keep in mind that I can't bear the suffering of the people in the Yuanlian Realm, so I came from afar. To save the human race in the Yuanlian Realm, in the sea of suffering. What is it called? By the way, it is liberation! Even if the harvest is 20% To get some spiritual stones, that is also necessary to expel evil spirits."
Feng Taiji couldn't help laughing: "That's why your lord is planning to open a market under the Yuanjing Palace?"
Feeling for the first time. This Dagan Monarch is really interesting.
It is obvious that he came here for plunder, but he said it as if he was righteous.
I probably understood Zong Shou's meaning, and because I want to occupy the righteousness, I can only act like this.
At this time, he also had no objection. What Jiujing did in the past was to let the Seven Kingdoms pay tribute regularly.
Zong Shou's approach is undoubtedly much wiser. To barter means to exchange things of equal value.
But in the end how to set the price, but they still have the final say.
Furthermore, things that are scarce elsewhere are ordinary in the Yuanlian Realm. And there are many things that Yuanlian Realm does not have, and there are many things in Cloud Realm.
Exchange what is needed, and only earn the price difference, you can earn a lot of money.
Faintly realized that although Zong Shou's method was gentler, it could not completely control the Yuanlian Realm like Jiu Jing. But it is more subtle, and the final harvest may not be worse than Jiujing.
Gradually settled in my heart, it seems to be very good to act like this.
"Of course!"
Zong Shou slightly nodded triumphantly, with a teachable look on his face.
You can use gentle methods to plunder resources, so why do you have to be bloody and make trouble to the point of life and death?
He laughed again: "Gu's behavior is actually for the sake of your three teachings. Since you have participated, Gu naturally needs to take care of you! If you don't win the hearts of Yuanlian people, how can you spread the teachings?"
In the words, there is quite a taste of gratitude that you have to remember.
It was right that Zhao Yanran was speechless, and it was at this moment. Outside the gate of the hall, Ci Fang stepped inside and saluted solemnly: "Your Majesty is kind, my Buddhist family is grateful!"
He looked at Zongshou with a complicated expression. When I came here before, I was still worried.
At this moment, it is certain that Buddhism will flourish in Yuanlian Realm.
It is a blessing for Buddhism to meet such a king.
At the same time, within the cloud realm.
Kong Rui walked out of the house in astonishment and looked up. That is the huge silver dragon soaring and circling, the dragon's head held high, and the dragon's chant bursts, spreading across the four fields. And beside the giant dragon, is the phoenix shadow——
"Dragon Qi is blazing? It doesn't seem right——"
Kong Rui picked up the King Wen hexagram money, watched it carefully, and then his expression became more and more weird.
"Your Majesty, what did he do in the outer domain? It caused the dragon and the phoenix to crow?"
