The pills that Shi Iris took out were not the type that quickly restored true qi and healed physical injuries, but a variety of pills that could promote each other and be beneficial to the steady growth of spiritual thoughts, so that people could try to maintain the state they had comprehended during the battle, so that they could improve their cultivation.

According to the inscription on the inner wall of the pill bottle, Zhao Qing did not hesitate to take several of them, while feeling his cultivation progress about half a month ahead of schedule after the fierce battle, while listening to Shi Iris's introduction to the ram Wuxuan, he thought thoughtfully.

It seems that the secret organization behind Ram Wuxuan has quite limited support for him personally, and the upper and lower levels are relatively loose and free, as long as the strength reaches the level of Confucius, there should be no need to worry about subsequent retaliation, right?

After this battle, the special effects that come with the God of War Catalogue can shorten the time for me to break through to the "Lower Six Qi" realm slightly, and coupled with the preliminarily revived Cao Zijian, the overall strength can be regarded as steadily rising.

Speaking of which, the effect of the "Death of the Dead God" of the Cao Zi Sword seems to be very compatible with the "Five Aggregates Burial Heart Sword", and the next cultivation and the plan to further awaken the spirit of the divine soldiers may start from the spiritual aspect?

"After the diviners of each country confirm the death of the ram Wuxuan and reach a consensus, and the other party has accumulated a considerable reward over the years, you may be able to take this remnant and try to collect it."

Glancing at the charred figurines, Shi Iris only felt that this person's death was really a bit upside-down, but as the first "Six Qi" realm powerhouse killed by Zhao Qing, a peerless master in the future, she might be more well-known than before her death, thinking of this, she sighed with emotion and continued to speak:

"For such a master who can be ranked in the whole world, ordinary small countries, small and medium-sized forces, even if they encounter his attack, usually do not dare to directly issue a reward, so as not to be retaliated by the other party, but choose to be attached to the name of a big force that is not afraid of the enemy."

"Like this ram Wuxuan, the three great powers of Jin, Chu and Qi all have corresponding entrusted rewards, because it is the result of the sum of many forces, the total amount is naturally higher than that of a single force, and the attraction is greater, and because of the addition or withdrawal of funders, there are often fluctuations."

"As of the statistics at the end of last year, the rewards listed by the three kingdoms of Jin, Chu, and Qi should be 250,000 gold, 120,000 gold, and 95,000 gold respectively, and roughly there are also gifts of similar value to heavenly and earthly treasures, rare pills and other things."

"Among them, the reason why the Jin State is the crown of the Three Kingdoms is mainly because the Marquis of Jin, as the agent of the Zhou royal family, took the initiative to offer a reward of 100,000 gold for Zhou Tianzi to alleviate the difficulties of the other party's financial embarrassment, and show his strong strength by the way......"

Since King Ping moved eastward, due to the need to maintain the highest standard of etiquette and music in the face of a sharp drop in income, and took the lead in following the Zhou etiquette, the Zhou royal family became more and more poor, and often begged for money from the Jin State and Lu State, which still respected Zhou on the surface, which seemed very cold.

However, in the eyes of real insiders, as the co-ruler of the world for nearly 3,000 years, the heritage of the Zhou royal family is not so easy to deplete, and the more reliable statement is that the palace and temple of Zhou Tianzi are actually full of important weapons bound to the bloodline of King Zhou and the authority of the Son of Heaven;

It's a pity that with the second- and third-rate cultivation of today's King Zhou, most of them can't be stimulated and used, in addition to being indestructible and extremely difficult to destroy, they are not much different from ordinary bronze ritual vessels, and they can't be sold to other countries, so they have caused the current predicament.

There is also a theory that the Zhou royal family may have secretly obtained the inheritance left by the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, so it will spend thousands of years gradually revising the historical records, tracing the origin of their ancestor Houji to the Yellow Emperor, wanting to increase the legitimacy of the Zhou people and accelerate their cultivation with the help of faith and worship.

"But it's actually a bit of a hassle to get these bounties smoothly, right?" Zhao Qing's heart moved slightly, and he replied: "After all, in the past three hundred years, Qi Jinggong has been committed to competing with the Jin State for hegemony, while the Chu State has always been in a hostile relationship with the Jin State. ”

"Come to think of it, the bounties of these three countries need to be collected separately in their own capitals, which will take a lot of travel time and increase the risk on the way. It is even difficult to rule out whether there will be a situation where after receiving one, it will be difficult for the second family to give it. ”

"That's true." Shi Iris nodded and added: "Of course, if we add the negotiation of our Yue Guo Pedestrian Agency, it should not be a problem, and it is likely that the envoys sent to these countries can bring back the bounties they received when they return." ”

"But given the frequency of pedestrian envoys between countries, it will also take a long time to wait, months at least, years at most, and it is difficult to say whether at that time there will be a large number of forces who will withdraw their bounties by the time difference after divining the news of the death of the ram."

And such a shameless operation? Zhao Qing was also a little surprised, thought about it, and felt that it was not a bad thing for him to go out and travel and see the style of various countries, even if he couldn't get the reward he deserved, but he could meet new wanted criminals along the way, and he could directly receive the reward on the spot, how to stop it.

"Miss Zhao, our Yue Kingdom, although there was no relevant reward before, but if you have made such a great achievement, you will definitely be awarded the title of first-class sergeant, and it is the top configuration of 10,000 households and 1 million acres of food fields." As soon as the topic changed, Shi Iris introduced the real reward:

"As for the lord of the lower doctor, firstly, there are the old rules of the first king, and it cannot be sealed unless it is the realm of 'lower six qi', and secondly, if it is an exceptional reward, it will be in the spotlight, and it is easy to arouse the fear of other countries, and secretly persecute them, it is better to keep a low profile."

"The stomach clan now has no descendants who are both talented and justifiable, although the power is still huge, but the new head of the family will inevitably be difficult to master, so he only needs to find a backer who has the ability to help, and become a vassal of the other party, whether overt or covert."

"Help win over the new head of the Stomach family? It seems to be good, just a time difference to get ahead of the others. Hearing the meaning of Shi Iris's words, Zhao Qing's heart moved, and he immediately agreed, feeling that his harvest was really good.

Ram Wuxuan has been lurking in Yue Guo for many years, except for the miserable stomach family, it seems that he has not found out that his people have planned other conspiracy, so the merits that can be made by killing him are limited, not to mention that Ram Wuxuan was finally rescued by the secret organization's "Dream Citation", and the possibility of resurrection from the dead is not ruled out.

Therefore, being awarded the rank of first-class sergeant, or the highest level of 10,000 households, should be mainly based on the investment I have made in my cultivation talent. Based on the regulations of Yue Guo that "only the six qi realms can serve as doctors" and "the highest official position is only a doctor", the gold content is really not low.

Different from the large counties, large counties, other counties, large counties, and small counties directly under the management of the state, although the ten thousand households here are only equivalent to the size of a small county, the former is a public county, and the latter is a private county, and the lord has the right to rule his own estate, and can appoint officials, levy and collect taxes on his own, which is equivalent to an independent small country.

Like the Sui Dynasty where Zhao Qing stayed before, the food of the prince of Zhengyipin was also 10,000 households, but in fact, more than half of the households belonged to false seals, and they only enjoyed the taxes of these places, and had no right to appoint or remove management, nor could they be hereditary.

Although the mining in the Spring and Autumn Period can be hereditary, it does not mean that every mining owner can make his mining from generation to generation and enjoy it for future generations. In principle, the decree of the monarch applies only to the lord and the person to be entitled.

If one of the two sides dies, the new successor needs to re-establish the relationship between the feudal lord and the feudal, and if the strength is insufficient to keep the original territory, then naturally it will not be able to inherit the original fief in its entirety.

Theoretically, after confirming the area of the fiefdom, the monarch will not interfere too much in the population and acres of land in this territory, whether it increases or decreases, so that the 10,000-household town can develop to the point of 20,000 or 30,000 households, and the total value will be greatly increased.

It is worth mentioning that in the Central Plains countries, because the old doctors are powerful and occupy too much territory, and the newcomers have "no land to seal", the hereditary feudal food and field system is gradually changing to the Gulu system bound to official positions.

For example, when Confucius was an official in Lu, although he was at the level of "Shang Dafu", second only to the "Qing" of Sanhuan, he still did not get a fief, only a fixed Yulu.

Considering that land cannot be bought and sold freely, Confucius probably did not have any means of production and should be classified into the "proletariat", while Zhao Qing was about to become a rotten feudal lord class.

In addition, don't look at the "million mu" seems to be a very large piece of land, because the current Yue country is in a state of exemption from land tax, there is no rent tax in the mining estate, and the lord of the town only has the right of priority to buy grain for the people under his rule, and can earn some price difference.

If you have a bit of business mind, you can also set up a merchant market and handicraft workshop in the mining area, and obtain money through the development of handicrafts; Or, lease some of the fields in the eupup to outsiders who have no land, and people who think that "those who can work hard" and want to cultivate more.

Generally speaking, it is not bad for each family to have 100 yuan of money and food for the lord in the end, and when you add it together, the annual income will be about 100 yuan, and when the tax exemption policy is over and it is restored to the level of tithes, the income can probably be doubled.

However, for Zhao Qing, the income from farming is not in her eyes, and it is the biggest harvest to be able to have legal land to operate and develop industry and commerce.

……

"Find a younger disciple of the Stomach Clan, and use the name of master and apprentice to confirm the cooperative relationship between the superior and the lower, so that during the period when he is supported to sit in the position of the head of the family, he can take charge of the ancestral divine weapon for the other party, and assist in teaching the inheritance exercises of the Stomach Clan."

"In this case, the content that you and Zheng Dan originally wanted to cooperate with the Stomach family is unhindered." Seeing that Zhao Qing gave Zheng Dan and the others a few healing pills, so that they could gradually recover from the shock of "Ten Days of Cold River", Shi Irisan smiled slightly and continued:

"Normally, after the end of each season's festival, the king summons the wise men and talents recruited during this time, as well as the brave men who have served the country, to travel with them in a boat, talk to each other, and then issue official rewards."

"Generally speaking, the location of the 10,000 feudal fiefdoms is either a fertile and fertile land in the Great Tang of Fuzhong, or the area where the feuder's hometown is located. Conventionally, it's basically a two-way scenario, with both having their own advantages and disadvantages. But considering your potential, Miss Zhao, the choice is probably even greater. ”

"Millions of acres" of enclosed land refers to arable land naturally, and does not include mountains, rivers, castles, roads, and other areas between multiple cultivated fields.

If it is a flat terrain such as Fuzhong Datang, although there will be sorcerers who regulate the weather, so that the wind and rain are smooth, and the income from farming is stable, which is significantly higher than that of barren land in the mountains, the area of non-cultivated land attached to it is only two or three hundred thousand mu, and the buildable land is quite limited.

If it is sealed in Huiji Mountain, with the deserted village where Zhao Qing lived as a child, and divided to one million acres of fields, the overall area will be greatly increased, at least the area within a radius of more than 100 miles, although the income in the mountainous area is low, but the development potential should not be underestimated.

Zhao Qing is not sure which one to choose, because the demarcated area is unknown, and economic development is closely related to transportation convenience, but it is certain that the latter has at least one tributary of Ruoye Creek, or can be developed on water transportation.

The fathers and villagers who have known each other for many years often take care of themselves who have not yet gone out of the mountain, and now they are just returning the price, giving them a chance to make progress, and full of the past feelings.

In addition, it is obviously necessary to reduce the leakage of past information and firmly control the territory in order to prevent suspicious people from coming to investigate or deliberately disclose false information.

The best plan is to choose a number of areas that are not connected to each other, and on the premise of including the original village and deserted villages, and then take down the hidden mining areas that you speculate to exist.

"Actually, with the title of 'first-class sergeant', if you are willing to go out, you can directly serve as the deputy positions of Sima, Situ, Sikou and other subordinates second only to Yizai in a big city, and with a little training, you can govern properly, and it is very likely that you will be promoted to Yizai within a few years."

Shi Iris added: "The population under the rule of a large city, at least there are three or four million households, which is two or three grades larger than that of 10,000 households, and the actual influence is naturally much greater, so as to cooperate and exchange with its own mining estate, the effect can be described as quite good......

"Of course, this operation must be carried out in accordance with the "Law of the King" issued, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise the people under the rule can 'directly sue' the royal court, and the king will personally examine the problems and abolish the original position of the suspect."

"In terms of cultivation, although I am temporarily ahead of you, my talent is limited, and I don't know much. However, in the area of Vietnam's internal affairs, I think there are still many things that can help. When you have time, you can talk to me more! ”

Speaking of this, she suddenly realized that she might have a bad image, so she couldn't help but be silent for a few breaths, and then moved on to another topic: "Do you remember the day after tomorrow when Zhu Ying took you to Huiji Mountain to participate in the festival?" For various reasons, he handed the matter over to me. ”

"Two days after tomorrow, if you have any intention of leaving, you can come to the Shi Manor, forty-four miles northwest of this place, to find me, and I will take you to the vicinity of King Yu's mausoleum. The specific situation will be explained in detail when the time comes. ”

Leaving behind a jade plaque symbolizing her identity, Shi Iris turned and walked towards the Xuanbing passage that had broken when she came, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared, centering on the traces of her feet, and the trace of holy light spread out, merging into the thousands of flowers and plants covered by the Xuanbing wall.

I saw that these strange flowers and plants that were rapidly frozen gradually began to thaw, forming warm and insulated cavities around them, returning to a normal state, if it were not for the collapse of a hall in the manor, and the heavy refraction of the moonlight by the ice, it can be said that it is almost no different from before the war.

How does it seem that the other party has inherited the character of Shi Mai's treacherous and profitable?

made a general evaluation of this stone iris, Zhao Qing's heart moved slightly, thinking of Wei Zhi's paraffin righteousness and killing his relatives, Chu Zhishi's extravagant father killed himself, but he didn't underestimate Yu Yueshi's family, and he was able to profit as much as possible within the scope allowed by the rules, in fact, it was understandable.

As long as Shi Irisi restrains her desires, does not relax because she often wanders on the edge of the rules, and tries to break through the boundaries in vain like her father Shi Mai, and eventually drags others down, she can be regarded as a qualified partner to cooperate with, and you can take what you need.

As for trying to control the matter of the Stomach family, it is obviously quite troublesome to operate, the key depends on the degree of cooperation of the new head of the family, Zheng Dan has tens of thousands of subordinates here, let these people be responsible for peaceful negotiations, and he is responsible for deterrence by force.

Speaking of which, the Shi Hao appointed by King Chu Zhao has an official position of up to the level of a doctor, which is equivalent to the "Great Priest" of other countries, which can be regarded as a high power, and his power was strong for a while, and later he chose to commit suicide because he let go of his father who committed a capital crime, and his family should also have some background.

Chu Yue has a close relationship, and the Shi family that Shi bought may have a close relationship with Shi Luxury's Shi family? Could it be that a long time ago, the Shi family of Yue Kingdom was also a similar source to Fan Li and Wen genre?

Zhao Qing thought secretly in his heart, and led Zheng Dan and the others out along the Xuanbing Passage, only to see a wind-chasing horse outside that had been waiting there for some time happily raised its hooves, and let out a neighing that turned from worry to joy quite spiritually, and was about to carry them back the same way.

"A-Qing, thanks to you this time! I don't even know how to repay it......" Walking to the foal, Zheng Dan turned his head, his big clear eyes blinked, and his face was full of bright smiles, but he didn't notice the golden carp that reappeared in Zhao Qing's hand.

As if sensing the departure of the stone iris, the eyes of the little golden carp showed a sense of agility that was no different from that of a human, and suddenly bulged its gills, opened its mouth and spit out a huge bubble, the bubble rose in the wind, and expanded rapidly, enveloping the entire manor in an instant.
