Chapter 18: The Time Has Come

With Zuo Xiaoyou inviting the gods of the Heavenly Court to come to the banquet, looking at the list of people who came to the banquet, Zuo Xiaoyou probably had a number in his heart.

On the day of the banquet, Zuo Xiaoyou personally came forward, warmly received the gods of the congregation, and expressed his attitude straightforwardly: "If you do not give up, this king will not disappoint your good intentions." ”

With this sentence as the foundation, the gods who came to the banquet were relieved, and on that day, the guests and hosts were happy.

After a period of time, Zuo Xiaoyou stayed in his fiefdom and ran his own territory with peace of mind, and the more than 10,000 veterans who had been disarmed and returned to the field also turned into the people of his fiefdom, striving to create GDP for Zuo Xiaoyou.

And in this process, the Jade Emperor really began to install cronies in the Tianhe Water Army, trying to divide Zuo Agarwood's power over the Tianhe Water Army. But Zuo Agarwood took command on the spot and left, which was originally a good thing for the Jade Emperor, but what happened afterwards made the Jade Emperor completely panicked. The 100,000 Tianhe water army actually returned to the field collectively and went to the fiefdom of Zuo Xiaoright.

In the huge Tianhe, there were only two or three kittens left in an instant. This is not the worst, the worst thing is that without the Tianhe Water Army to guard the Tianhe, once the Chaos Demon God invades, how can Heavenly Court resist it?

The panicked Jade Emperor wanted to invite the agarwood back, but the Heavenly Emperor sat on the throne for a long time, and it was inevitable that he would have a heart of self-respect.

Although Zuo Xiaoyou received the support of more than eighty percent of the military in the Heavenly Court, he would not jointly resist the normal military movement of the Jade Emperor, so the 100,000 Tianhe water army was replenished, and the Tianhe military power, which had been controlled by the Zuo family father and son for hundreds of years, was also held by the Jade Emperor again. In this regard, the Jade Emperor was very proud: "Even without your father and son of the Zuo family, the widow can still protect the Tianhe." ”

In this regard, although there are many people who are angry, Zuo Xiaoyou and Zuo Agarwood are not in a hurry. The scope of the fiefdom on the left and the right is large enough, and it is easy to feed millions of people, the only problem is that the resources are scarce, especially the spirit stone, the output here is pitiful, without the spirit stone, it is difficult for the soldiers to quickly improve their strength, if the time drags on for a long time, the strength gap will also be caught up by other armies, and eventually lose the honor of the first strong army in the heavenly court.

In the face of this situation, Zuo Xiaoyou calmly formulated a series of investment promotion plans. One of the most tempting is that as long as you come, I will give you a house for free and a shop for free. All that is required is a percentage of the commercial tax, as long as you can bring wealth to the fiefdom, your food, clothing, housing and even security, all of which are responsible for the left and small right, to ensure that there are no accidents. If there is a real accident, it will give your descendants a hundred years of tax exemption and will be taken care of in all aspects.

When a series of attractive investment promotion plans spread, the immortals in the heavenly court who liked to make money couldn't sit still. In the Heavenly Court ruled by the Jade Emperor, although they can earn a lot of wealth, but the Jade Emperor viciously extracted their commercial tax as high as fifty percent, simply put, they earn a dollar, the Jade Emperor will take away five cents, and a dollar is still gross profit, if you remove all kinds of expenses, the Jade Emperor will take away five cents, they can leave two or three cents at most, so they have always hated it very much.

But now, with the introduction of a 10% commercial tax by Zuo Xiaoyou, and the provision of subsidies in all aspects, there are at least a thousand merchants in the Heavenly Court who have come to Zuo Xiaoyou's fiefdom.

Originally, these people didn't dare to imagine that Zuo Xiaoyou would fully fulfill their promises, but as long as Zuo Xiaoyou could fulfill half of their promises, they would also make a lot of money. But when they arrived at Zuo Xiaoyou's fiefdom and expressed their intention to invest, Zuo Xiaoyou immediately warmly entertained them, and then took out a large stack of requirements for doing business here, as well as a series of preferential conditions.

After these merchants learned in detail about the preferential policies for attracting investment, as many as forty percent of the merchants signed contracts on the spot, and took out the money to determine that they wanted to establish a trading bank here, and made a promise that as long as the economic benefits were good, they would make additional investments in the future. Zuo Xiaoyou happily accepted, and both parties were happy.

However, there are still sixty percent of the businessmen who can't make up their minds, saying that they want to go back to discuss, Zuo Xiaoyou is not dissatisfied, but warmly entertained them, and then sent a dart board composed of Tianhe Water Army to escort them back home safely, and this is a completely free escort, as long as they can create GDP for Zuo Xiaoyou in the future, the free escort will continue.

After they discussed with their families or partners, a large number of merchants decided to join Zuo Xiaoyou's investment promotion plan, and then ran to Zuo Xiaoyou's fiefdom with sufficient money and food, and after signing a business contract, Zuo Xiaoyou arranged them in the houses and shops they liked, so that these people didn't pay yet, and they got the houses and shops for nothing.

As the saying goes, if you treat me as a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman. These merchants were very grateful for the preferential treatment they received, and in the years that followed, they brought a great deal of wealth to Zuo Xiaoyou. Within a few years, as long as it is the dart bureau protected by Zuo Xiaoyou, the probability of safe delivery is 100%, and there is no casualty.

Under such circumstances, other big businessmen in Heavenly Court began to make a move, and they all invited Zuo Xiaoyou to cooperate with them to protect their business safety.

Of course, Zuo Xiaoyou is willing to cooperate, but cooperation must pay a fee, and with the success rate of the dart game he founded over the years, the price must be very high. But even so, compared with the probability of accidents on the way to the dart, these big businessmen still signed a cooperation agreement with the dart board, so the dart board was finally freed from zero income and became another big contributor to GDP for the left, small and right.

Under the development of everything towards a virtuous circle, the commercial trade in the fiefdom of Zuo Xiaoyou has become the most prosperous place in the heavenly court, and because this is the fief of Zuo Xiaoyou, even the Jade Emperor cannot take away a dime, so the money is owned by Zuo Xiaoyou, which also makes Zuo Xiaoyou more and more wealth in his pocket, on the contrary, although the Jade Emperor controls the entire heavenly court, but because he has ancient feudal thoughts, he looks down on merchants the most, so his treasury is becoming more and more empty, about fifty years or so, the Jade Emperor suddenly found that there is no money in the treasury.

The Jade Emperor was furious and immediately asked the household officials: "Where did all that money go?" ”

The household official was very aggrieved: "Your Majesty, just because the commercial tax is too high, all the merchants in the Heavenly Court have gone to the fiefdom of the Tianhe Heavenly King to do business, and without the commercial tax, the treasury will have no money." ”

The Jade Emperor was stunned: "How can this be? ”

By this time, the Jade Emperor had finally realized how important commerce was to a regime's taxes, and the people who could create the most wealth had now all gone to the fiefdom of the one he hated the most.

Although Zuo Xiaoyou has been disarmed and returned to the field for more than 50 years, Zuo Xiaoyou's prestige in the Heavenly Court military is still very high, and the Jade Emperor has tried to do it to Zuo Xiaoyou several times, but he has been resisted by military figures, so he has to endure it for the time being, but he didn't expect that Zuo Xiaoyou suddenly developed his fiefdom of poor mountains and bad waters into the most prosperous economic center of Heavenly Court when he was forbearing, and earned more than 80% of the wealth of the entire Heavenly Court, which was simply mad.

When the Jade Emperor began to reflect on his prejudice against commerce, after fifty years of wealth accumulation, Zuo Xiaoyou finally earned enough to support the military expenses of 100,000 troops to consume a hundred years, and had the strength to launch a mutiny.

But he didn't do it immediately, because what he wanted was not just to overthrow the Jade Emperor, but to keep the Heavenly Court system as intact as possible on the basis of overthrowing the Jade Emperor, so as not to face the dilemma of no one being available after registration.

So he was waiting, waiting for an opportunity for him to justify his troops. In ancient times, it was very important to be right, and if you were not right, you would not be good, and if you were not right, you would not be able to do anything. That's why in ancient times, there were so many people who had to ensure their righteous identity before the onset of the disease, and if they didn't have the coat of righteousness, they wouldn't succeed at all.

Now, although the Jade Emperor has been questioned and dissatisfied by the entire Heavenly Court, he is a rightful Heavenly Emperor after all, and no one can shake his rule until there is a person who can replace him.

It turns out that the choice of waiting for the right time is correct. A hundred years have passed since the last time 500,000 Chaos Demon Gods invaded Tianhe, and the Chaos Demon God once again gathered more than 300,000 Chaos Demon Gods to launch a third large-scale invasion of Tianhe.

And this time, the 100,000 Tianhe Water Army was completely unable to withstand the impact of the 300,000 Chaos Demon Gods, and just three days later, the Tianhe defense line was broken through, and the 300,000 Chaos Demon Gods frantically poured into the Heavenly Realm, launching an indiscriminate and bloody invasion against the Heavenly Court.

When the news reached the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, the Jade Emperor and the Manchu Dynasty were shocked. The Jade Emperor immediately panicked and ordered the Heavenly King of Tota Li to lead 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to block the Chaos Demon God, and then successively sent various Heavenly Kings to lead their generals to Tianhe to support. As a close confidant of the Jade Emperor, King Tota Li was miserable.

This guy is already a person with sparse skills, if it weren't for relying on a pagoda and the thick thighs of three children, he wouldn't have any chance to become a celebrity in front of the Jade Emperor. This time, the Jade Emperor sent him to the front line again to expel the Chaos Demon God, and the Heavenly King of Tota Li was numb.

In the past, when King Li sent troops, he would definitely bring his third son Nezha, but since the Tianhe incident, Nezha has never obeyed Li Jing's orders, and as time went by, Nezha didn't know what to think, so he didn't stay in the heavenly court, but ran back to the master directly, saying that he had the understanding of cultivation and needed to retreat for a period of time.

Hundreds of years have passed, and it has not yet been released. But as Nezha's father, Li Jing certainly knows what is going on with his youngest son. How can there be any perception in cultivation, it is clear that he feels that he is too despicable and shameless, and he is embarrassed with the Jade Emperor, and has done a great thing that the heavens are angry and resentful. In this way, the third prince of Nezha, who wanted to be embarrassed, was unwilling to continue to help the abuse, so after feeling guilty for many years, he chose to return to the door to find the master's enlightenment.

Taiyi Zhenren did give Nezha a lot of enlightenment, but in the end, he still hoped that Nezha could get through this demon by himself, so Nezha really went into retreat, but this retreat was within the maze set up by Taiyi Zhenren for him. This maze can almost perfectly simulate all kinds of false lives, Nezha can face his inner weaknesses in the maze, as long as he overcomes his weaknesses, he can successfully overcome his inner demons and further cultivate his Taoism. But if you can't overcome it, there will be no accident if there is Taiyi real person staring.

Now Nezha is still unable to get out of the maze, which shows what a huge blow that incident dealt to Nezha who had justice in his heart. However, because of his unacceptability, Li Jing led to an independent leader this time, and none of the generals in the army could compare with Nezha, and the strongest was only the giant spirit god who was played by Sun Wukong back then.

In this way, Li Jing led 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals to go straight to Tianhe, and when he was about to arrive at Tianhe, he found that the Chaos Demon God had rushed out of Tianhe and was directly heading towards Tianhe.

Li Jing was shocked and immediately shouted: "Array!" Get ready to meet the enemy! ”

It's a pity that the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals he led are simply peaceful and lazy wastes, with no fighting spirit at all, and in the face of the impact of the 300,000 Chaos Demon Gods, they suddenly panicked and collapsed after resisting.

And then the army responsible for supporting was also under the influence of these defeated armies, and it didn't take long to resist, and it was rushed to pieces, and hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals were gnawed by the Chaos Demon God, which not only wiped out the army power of the Heavenly Court, but also turned it into nutrition, making these 300,000 Chaos Demon God even stronger.

After three or five days like this, a quarter of the area of Heavenly Court was occupied by the Chaos Demon God, and within this quarter of the range, millions of soldiers and innocent immortals were eaten by the Chaos Demon God, causing the greatest loss in the history of Heavenly Court.

And Zuo Xiaoyou couldn't do anything about it, in order to transfer him away from Tianhe, the Jade Emperor directly arranged his fief at the other end of Tianhe, so Zuo Xiaoyou was far away from Tianhe, separated by the territory of the entire Heavenly Court, and it was impossible to destroy these Chaos Demon Gods in Tianhe.

Back then, the Tianhe Water Army led by him fought countless battles with the Chaos Demon God, and in terms of individual ability alone, the Chaos Demon God was much stronger than the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, and the reason why he was able to win more with less was only to take advantage of the strict military discipline and the skillful battle array, coupled with the Ten Thousand Immortals Great Array used at the last moment, which directly turned the fierce and powerful Chaos Demon God into fat in the meat grinder.

This also created an illusion for the other armies of Heavenly Court, that is, the Chaos Demon God was very weak, and even if he was stationed in the Tianhe Frontier, he would still be able to destroy the 'weak' Chaos Demon God.

But the ideal is plump, but the reality is very skinny. After enjoying hundreds of years of peace, when they finally began to face the Chaos Demon God by themselves, they finally knew the horror of the Chaos Demon God, and they also had the fullest understanding of the strength of the Tianhe Water Army led by the father and son of the Zuo family.

But, it's too late.
