All systems have been changed, which is like changing from a primitive tribe to a capitalist society in an instant, which is difficult for many original believers to accept.

There have been changes in finance, as have major adjustments in employment.

All personnel appointments must be decided by the head of the hall, and when he first left the Central Plains, the Holy Flame Hall also established a system similar to the Eleven Elders, but as soon as he entered the Holy Flame City, this system was immediately canceled.

More importantly, there is one more thing, the treatment of dragons is even more unacceptable.

Dragons can only be worshipped by one person, and no one is allowed to worship for any reason. At the same time, the dragon became the exclusive domain of the hall master, and no one was allowed to enter to meet the dragon, and he made the dragon cultivation pool a forbidden place.

Later, a lot of forbidden places were added inexplicably, and for what reason, multiple forbidden areas had to be set up. The owner of the hall has never been announced to the outside world, and after the most difficult years, most people have become accustomed to life here, and even more accustomed to the Holy Flame Hall when all the rules have been broken. Everyone is accustomed to this kind of one-word way of doing things, and there is no need for all the people of the Holy Flame City to participate in anything. Although there are a lot of changes, there is one thing that has been retained.

Even the name has not changed since the day of separation, in fact, the first hall master has the ability to change the name to a new one, but he has not done so.

At that time, the power of the Holy Flame City could intimidate all the neighboring countries. Because he came with a lot of Central Plains culture and technology in his time, and these people each had unique skills. This made the surrounding neighbors feel terrible, and from time to time neighbors would come to visit the Holy Flame City.

To the relief of these people, the successive bishops of the Holy Flame City had not expanded half of their land outward. Before the Holy Flame City came, this land was a no-man's land, and no lord or country had ever come here to plan the territory. No one claims to belong to anyone, and no one has included this place in their territory.

The Holy Flame Hall occupied this area by such a coincidence, and the origin of the land is very strange from the current point of view.

Since it cannot be called a country here, the head of the hall is still the head of the hall, let alone a king or an emperor. Don't look at the power of the hall master to act as the emperor, when the financial power is monopolized, all internal and external expenditures are kept secret. I can't guess how much money will be left in the end. ”

"How could you not know these things if you are the hall master?" Throughshan asked.

"When I take over, there is only one term for the Holy Flame Hall. At that time, the Holy Flame City had been deserted for nearly a hundred years, and the ancient buildings had long since been replaced by newly renovated buildings, and the original appearance had long since disappeared without a trace.

When I was appointed as the master of the hall, the Holy Fire Hall was defeated in the small room where I live now, and the only way to enjoy the glory of the past is to look through the original archives and classics, which is not the same as the glory heyday of the past. Shao Kang said regretfully, "The first two directors did their best to build the Holy Flame City, and every brick and tile needed for the construction of the Holy Flame City cost one or two silver, don't look at such a huge amount of money or accumulate a lot of wealth." I heard from Uncle Shi that he may have accumulated 50 million taels of silver at that time, but no one knows whether this money was consumed in the later period. ”

Seeing the wide eyes of Guanshan and Yuan Shouyuan, Shao Kang said with a smile, "These riches are nothing, the more important reason why the Holy Flame City can develop is that he has a large group of Central Plains people who are proficient in commercial transactions. Their commercial prowess had connected all the city-states here, and although there had not been a single armed invasion, the city-states had been miserable with their shrewd commercial looting. Business success does not stop change, it accelerates it.

Although there have been many changes, at least everyone has received wealth and comfort. At the same time, it also makes the Holy Flame Hall stronger and resists the invasion of many forces. The city construction is no worse than that of the Central Plains city-state, and the creation of the Holy Flame City can be regarded as ingenious. In his third term, however, he was a man who was kind on the outside and tyrannical on the inside. He was on a par with any tyrant of any generation, and on his first day in office, all the heroes and veterans who had gone to the banquet were executed in the banquet hall. Murder is never foreshadowed, and work is done according to the mood. A few people did not attend the meeting due to poor health, thinking that they could escape, but this one did not give these people a chance to rejoice for too long, and they were also not spared, and they were strangled to death in the hospital bed. And at the same time, the people who accepted the previous term were massacred, and all the remnants of the previous term were removed, and the whole city became restless for a while. ”

"This pervert, since the king is cruel and unkind, it's against her mother." Yuan Shou scolded.

"It's no longer possible." Shaokang said, "It was easy to rebel at first, after all, there was no regular army at that time. However, after two generations of construction, it has become more and more difficult, and it turns out that there is no army in the hall, and in the event of an invasion, all the people are soldiers. The armed forces are also uneven, and they can cope with small conflicts, but if they meet the regular army of the imperial court, they are completely vulnerable. So the whole congregation moved here and began to form its own army, which was the most rapid of many changes. Everyone thinks that in order to survive here, they must first strengthen their hard work. The establishment of a regular army, coupled with the prevailing Western fire at the time, was a battle that ordinary armies could not handle. ”

"That's all you have to endure like this?" Yuan Shou asked unconvinced.

"Of course I won't endure it like this, someone will always stand up and give back to the tyrant." Shaokang is colorful. "This is the fifteenth year after the third term, and there is a more resourceful one. He is the fourth successor, although it is sudden for the third master, but for the fourth master, he has been preparing for fifteen years. He spent fifteen years supporting the new star forces, cultivating talented newcomers, and winning over the important ministers around the hall master. Until the time is ripe, one move will lead to the enemy. The fourth hall master moved faster than the third, taking control of the whole city in just a few hours, and the hall master fought with his own guards until the last moment. They were besieged in a miniature castle built by the hall master himself, trying to rely on strong fortifications to defend against the attack, and the battle lasted only two days, using explosives to blast the main fortifications. Entering through the gap, none of the Hall's main guards survived. After the final identification was confirmed, the third hall master was also beheaded. Everyone was carried away by the victory in front of them, and all those close to the third hall master were slaughtered, and the third hall master was summarily killed without any interrogation. He killed his predecessor in such a hurry mainly because he was afraid that someone would use his name to rebel against him. ”
