Chapter 609: Birthday

There are many big forces that do metal ore business with demons, among which the Warrior Alliance accounts for the majority, otherwise the financial resources of the Warrior Alliance can compete with the Demon Wizard Alliance?

Of course, among the four great families, the Dugu family and the Shangguan family have a part of the business related to metal ores, but in the face of a behemoth like the Warrior Alliance, the share of the two great families in metal ore is too small.

The best way to curb smuggling is to increase the price of metal ore, as long as the price is gone, in fact, the profit from this can still be made up by using a large amount, but no one is willing to raise the purchase price at this head, and the whole body will be moved, the price of metal ore is not only to curb smuggling, the same is to curb the rise of demons, and the demons who have no money can only use their limited money to buy the most garbage food from the hands of the human race, and such food is not eaten by the human race itself, and the price of selling it to the demon is still several times the price!

The human race is not only curbing the development of demons from economic, military and even cultural aspects, so for tens of thousands of years, the human race has come out of the devastated war and has become more and more prosperous, while the demons have always struggled in that big and boundless cold land, and the hatred has accumulated too deeply, and there is no room for resolution!

The vast majority of demons don't hate the cat spirit clan very much, they hate the human race even more, the human race forced them to come to this desolate place to survive, while they themselves enjoyed the most prosperous city and the most fertile land in the entire cultivation realm!

If the demons want to gain the same status as the human race, there is no other way out but war!

So the demons will launch a war against the human race every once in a while, although they all lose more and win less, but the demon has never given up, the strongest among the demons is like a forest, if it weren't for such a powerful threat as the demon, the human world would have been a pot of porridge!

Although the human race likes infighting, it is not stupid, it is okay to fight small, but it is not okay to fight big, so the formation of a Xiuzhen country will not perish after thousands of years, and the cycle of the change of dynasties in the Xiuzhen realm is much longer than that of the Suzaku Kingdom, at least ten times, and a big reason is because of the demon, the external enemy!

For the sake of Jin Xing Yuanzhu, this time the demon cultivated the true country, Ye Yu also had to go.

The Black Armor Army is an army that has been formed, and has formed combat effectiveness and fighting style, Ye Yu thought about it again and again, and decided not to revoke the establishment of the Black Armor Army, and formally established the Black Armor Army, in addition, he also carried out a drastic reform of the army of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, and reorganized the army of the Xiuzhen Realm on the basis of the original, in addition to the Inner Mansion Legion of Long Qianlong, the 600,000 troops of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom were cut, withdrawn, And into 400,000 people, Mu Guiying and the four major legions except for the Black Armor Legion, respectively, with the names of the four directions of the east, west, north and south as the names of the legions, integrated and unified all the military forces of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, and changed the bad laws, especially the privileges of the nobles of the family were greatly restricted, and above the court, Hu Shiya ordered the formation of the first cabinet of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, and revised the new "Qinglong National Law", for the first time in the law to clarify the rights and obligations of the emperor of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, and passed the first cabinet formation draft!

At this time, no one in the Qinglong Xiuzhen country dared to oppose Ye Yu at all, in fact, the Tearing Heaven City was now more like the capital of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, and the original national capital was more like an ornament!

Unless Long Qianlong is unwilling to regain the power that belongs to him, but that is basically impossible.

Ye Yu controlled the army with one hand, and he was using Huang Zongxi to control the country's financial power, military power and financial power in his hands, who could make waves?

Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom can be said to be Ye Yu's foundation, so he has to think about it to lay his foundation more solidly.

Hu Shiya's ability is quite outstanding, especially in military affairs, as long as Ye Yu is a little bit, she will understand, so she doesn't need him to worry too much at all, but in terms of government affairs, Hu Shiya is slightly inferior to Liancheng Yu'er.

Ye Yu had the intention to let Liancheng Yu'er go to the national capital to govern, but in this way, his family would be equivalent to controlling the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom Imperial Court, and he would be the emperor if he was not the emperor!

Huang Zongxi's ability is also good, he also has some prestige in the Qinglong Xiuzhen country, and he is also loyal to himself, so he can't chill people's hearts at this time, so Ye Yu put out the idea of letting Liancheng Yu'er go to the national capital to govern.

The eldest prince Long Xiang doesn't want to be this emperor, this Ye Yu is already very clear, what he prefers is to hide in his own laboratory and tinker with his things that fascinate him, recently, he is obsessed with alchemy, and clamoring to go with him to the demon cultivation country, you must know that most of the alchemists are in the north, and Long Xiang wants to go to the alchemy master to learn the arts!

Since learning that Cheng Jiao is his cousin, and Cheng Jiao is more suitable than him in terms of blood, inheriting the throne of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, Long Xiang said that he does not mind giving up the position of the crown prince to his cousin Cheng Jiao, which can be regarded as atonement for the wrong things his father did back then!

And Cheng Jiao himself didn't know that his brother-in-law was plotting with his sister who loved him to push him to the position of the prince of the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom!

After Yuan Li became the financial officer of Xuanrui City, she carried out drastic financial reforms in Xuanrui City, first of all, she reduced the taxes of merchants, and at the same time punished the nobles of the family who evaded taxes, and won the support of the people of Xuanrui City at once, and Cheng Jiao, this kid, was a flower messenger for a few days, and he actually stayed in Xuanrui City!

With Yuan Li's cleverness, how could she not know the intention of the city lord and Mrs. Cheng Qing to send Cheng Jiao over to escort her, but Yuan Li didn't have the heart to take care of her children's personal feelings at all now, so her pursuit of Cheng Jiao was neither too enthusiastic nor too cold.

Yuan Li is lukewarm, but it makes Cheng Jiao anxious, Yuan Li is worthy of him in terms of appearance and conduct, and he does have a good impression of Yuan Li, the man is handsome, the woman is delicate, it is easy to have a spark of love, but Yuan Li just doesn't call him!

This time back and forth, Cheng Jiao is familiar with Shen Gong Jackal.

"Da Shao, are you looking for us again Yuan Li, the financial officer?" asked Cheng Jiao, who was deflated, with a smile on his face.

The eldest young master never knocked on the door when he entered his study, and when he heard the footsteps, he knew that he was coming, and he was not in a good mood.

"Lao Shen, you say, does this Yuan Li not like men?" Cheng Jiao complained.

"How rare have you been rejected?" said Shen Gongyun, who consolidated the documents in his hand, closed them, and put them in a drawer.

"You, you still don't understand women, you come every day, why does Yuan Li ignore you every day?"

"Lao Shen, why don't I understand women?" Cheng Jiao said in a somewhat rushed tone.

"Hehe, Da Shao, don't be angry yet!" Shen Gongling smiled and said, "Let me ask you, do you know Yuan Li? Who is in her family, what kind of background, what she likes to eat, what she wears, and what kind of man she likes? Do you know all of this?"

Cheng Jiao shook his head.

"You, it's just hot with a shaved head, wishful thinking. Shen Gongyi said in the tone of a person who came over.

"Who said I was wishful thinking, I really like Yuan Li. Cheng Jiao retorted.

"This time it was your sister and Mrs. Cheng Qing who escorted Yuan Li to Xuanrui City to take office, right?" Shen Gong Jackal smiled and said, figuring out people's hearts, observing words and feelings, Shen Gong Jackal thinks that he is second, no one dares to admit that he is the first, he has been in the second prince's mansion for several years, which person does not need him to practice as an object, otherwise, how can he be the chief strategist of the second prince Longyin?

"Yuan Li has been by Mrs. Liancheng Yu'er for many years, and she is very familiar with Mrs. Cheng Qing, she must understand Mrs. Cheng Qing's thoughts on this trip, and if she is not interested in you, I'm afraid she won't be like this to you, although Yuan Li has just met, but she is a very capable woman, and she does things without delay, why would she endure your harassment again and again, and she has been bland to you?" Shen Gongyi smiled.

"Lao Shen, are you saying that Yuan Li is interested in me?" Cheng Jiao's heart suddenly accelerated.

"It may not be missed, but it is not far away!" said Shen Gongyun with a relaxed smile.

Cheng Jiao's mouth suddenly smiled like a blooming flower: "Lao Shen, you are really a cunning old fox, no wonder my brother-in-law admires you so much!"

When Shen Gongling heard this, he was even happier in his heart, and being appreciated by the boss was undoubtedly the happiest thing for a subordinate.

Yuan Li is indeed moved by Cheng Jiao, such an excellent man, although sometimes uncertain, but he has an indescribable vitality, not relying on his family to break out of the world by himself, this is Yuan Li's greatest appreciation for Cheng Jiao, if he is simply Mrs. Cheng Qing's younger brother, then Yuan Li will not even look at him more!

Yuan Li may not be anything in the eyes of Ye Yu and others, but in the eyes of the vast majority of people, it is where she is high, and Yuan Li is still a martial saint master, and her strength cultivation is not enough, so she can't look down on it at all.

If Cheng Jiao is not the kind of man who relies on others to support him, and more importantly, he also has the cultivation of a martial saint, so he can make Yuan Li feel a little bit about him, but if he likes it, I am afraid that there is still a lot of distance!

After getting Shen Gong's guidance, Cheng Jiao became much smarter, no longer revolving around Yuan Li every day, sometimes only going once in three days, sometimes longer, every time he went, Cheng Jiao didn't speak, just looked at Yuan Li quietly and affectionately.

In the end, Yuan Li was a little hairy by his staring, and took the initiative to talk to him.

After going back and forth, Yuan Li found that she hadn't seen Cheng Jiao for a few days, and she actually missed him a little, and the longer the time passed, the more this longing seemed to make her unable to extricate herself.

When a person is familiar with the existence of a person around him, and cares for him in every detail, this person suddenly disappears, and the other person will definitely have a feeling of discomfort, feeling the loss of the bottom of his heart, if this person is lost in his heart, this person suddenly appears, then nine times out of ten this person will go into the depths of another person's heart.

In general, love is born like this!

"Master, tell you good news!" Cheng Qing ran into Ye Yu's study excitedly, waving a piece of paper in his hand and shouting.

Ye Yu is reading a book about the geography of the Qinglong Kingdom, and wants to find some special places in it, so as to find the Pearl of the Origin of the Five Elements, so that the search for a goal is less than the need to run around like a headless fly!

"What good news can make you so excited?" Ye Yu put down the book with a smile.

"Cheng Jiao, this kid is on good terms with Yuan Li!" Cheng Qing said triumphantly, as if he had found his sweetheart.

"So fast?" Ye Yu smacked his mouth and said, "It's been less than a month, right?"

"Of course, it doesn't matter who my brother is!" Cheng Qing had a smile in his eyes.

"Let me see, what tricks does this kid Cheng Jiao use?" Ye Yu stretched out his hand and asked Cheng Qing for the piece of paper.

After Ye Yu saw it, he couldn't help laughing: "It seems that this kid has made some progress, and he has used it to capture and indulge in what he likes, no wonder he can hug the beauty so quickly!"

"Are you particularly unhappy, I heard Sister Liancheng Yu'er mention that she wants to let Yuan Li take you into the room. Cheng Qing asked teasingly.

"I'm not happy about anything, anyway, I didn't marry into our family, cheap Cheng Jiao's kid!" Ye Yu said.

"You men, you just don't know what contentment is!" Cheng Qing glanced at Ye Yu, but he didn't mean to be angry in his heart.

In the face of such accusations, Ye Yu could only smile awkwardly.

"By the way, master, when is your birthday?" Cheng Qing suddenly asked.

Ye Yu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?"

"I've been with you for more than a year, and I still don't know when you were born?" Cheng Qing felt that her wife was a little incompetent, and she didn't even know her husband's birthday!

Ye Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, if it wasn't for Cheng Qing to ask, he would almost have forgotten his birthday!

Regardless of the difference between the Yanhuang calendar and the Suzaku national calendar, counting the days, it will be his twenty-eighth birthday in a few days.

Ye Yu's birthday is August 16, and the first day is the traditional festival of the Suzaku people, the Mid-Autumn Festival, of course, this is calculated according to the lunar calendar of the Suzaku country, and if it is calculated according to the solar calendar, it is September 23.

Ye Yu is a traditional Vermilion Bird country, of course, he will not go to the Western Yuan calendar birthday made by Westerners, naturally it is the traditional lunar birthday of the Vermilion Bird country.

"August 16?" Cheng Qing heard this, and hurriedly pinched his fingers and calculated, "Oh, isn't there still six days to arrive?"

"Master, why don't we have a birthday party to celebrate?" Cheng Qing proposed.

Ye Yu shook his head and vetoed it, holding a birthday ball? That's a lot of waste, and besides, he is not used to any balls or anything like that.

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome, just call everyone back and just have a meal as a family. Ye Yu said.

"Okay, I'll go and set it up!" Cheng Qing also knew Ye Yu's temper, and he didn't like to have any dance parties or drinking parties.

"By the way, Elder Wang approved Confucius to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, for the time being, he just asked him to go to the third floor, as for the third layer or more, I need your approval!" Cheng Qing suddenly remembered something, and said back.
