Chapter 148: Try
Chen's house.
The lights are shining.
The six great families gathered, as well as the small forces in the city, or some forces in the wilderness.
It's all together.
It was Xu Gu who gathered them.
After this period of recuperation, although Yanming City is a little deserted compared to before, it is really no longer turbulent.
There is no despair that could die at any time.
The heads of all the forces sat in the room, looking at Xu Gu quietly, without saying a word.
I don't dare to say anything.
Their fear of Xu Gu has long been deep in their bones.
None of them are stupid people, this meeting, nominally, is to discuss with everyone how to restore the prosperity of Yanming City.
But in this case, they all know very well, saying that it is a discussion, but in fact, they are quietly listening to Xu Gu's arrangement, and then doing it.
If there is an opinion, there is no need to have an opinion.
They are not qualified to discuss.
Seeing this, Xu Gu nodded with satisfaction, but he was not stunned, and said:
"This is the plan for the development of Yanming City in the future."
As he spoke, Ye Xuanxuan, who was standing next to Xu Gu, took out a stack of booklets from the storage ring and handed them out to everyone one by one.
"Childe, this ......"
After reading it, the head of the Li family hesitated: "According to the above plan, in the future, Yanming City will recruit 800 people every year to become the people in the city?" And arrange various positions? These people can come from the wilderness or from the mortal realm? ”
According to what is written in the booklet, in order to make up for the loss of talent in Yanming City and develop more prosperously, it was decided to give 800 places to move to Yanming City every year.
Not only him, but almost all the forces in the city frowned.
Yanming City has a population of only 100,000, an average life expectancy of 30 years old, and 3,000 people die every year, and the number of births is almost 3,000.
Eight hundred people are recruited every year, and those who are recruited will catch up with three percent of the birth population!
If it continues like this, it won't be many years before Yanming City will be occupied by scavengers and mortals in the wilderness!
Isn't the position of these rulers of the city going to be shaken?
How can this be acceptable to them?
"Childe, in the past, the quota for entering the city released by Yanming City every year was only thirty people, and this time, it has risen so much, will it ......?"
An old man in black, with a slender body, an ugly appearance, gray eyes, and some sour smell on his body, obviously because he had accumulated too much heterogeneity in his body, causing his body to be distorted.
He is an ancestor of the Wang family.
It is an order to be in danger, after all, today's Yanming City is in a great change that has not been encountered in a thousand years, if you are not careful, the Wang family may be destroyed and the inheritance will be broken!
He, like the head of the Li family, is a hard-nosed person who expresses doubts.
They are indeed afraid of Xu Gu, but compared to this fear, they are even more afraid of the decline of the family!
The other forces in the city also nodded their heads and showed their attitudes.
I am unwilling and unacceptable, so many people join Yanming City every year.
In fact, even the forces in the wilderness were terrified and trembling.
Their status has always been relatively low.
It has always belonged to the vassals of the six major families.
Now, although with the help of the turmoil in the underworld, he has a little right to speak, but he still has a humble status.
I never dreamed that I would be able to get eight hundred places to move to Yanming City every year!
That's nearly thirty times over!
If it's forty, or fifty, maybe they'll be happy, joyful, excited.
But that's too much!
It will definitely be suppressed by the forces in the city, and at the same time, the talents within their forces may also be lost in large quantities.
Xu Gu was not surprised by this result: "Who has an opinion? It's time to get out. ”
His expression was indifferent, and his words were calm.
But the scene suddenly fell silent.
The crowd fell silent.
This time, I'm afraid that not only will I lose my life, but the forces behind me will also be pulled out, right?
They knew Xu Gu's horror, and even Jiang Cang, who had broken through to the Baoyuan Realm, was beheaded!
"Very well, since everyone has no opinion." Xu Gu nodded and said, "Then discuss in detail which items are specifically tested."
"I'll give you a rough framework.
"If it's okay, we'll discuss the specific subjects in detail later."
"Childe, please!" Everyone didn't dare to have an opinion, so they could only listen to Xu Gu.
Xu Gu said: "The eight hundred places will be decided through the autumn competition."
"Big score adult and juvenile group.
"Probably more than a dozen subjects.
"The subjects of adult autumn are mainly divided into two categories: martial arts and literature.
"Martial arts, that is, force, if you pass the various assessments and enter the city, you will be mainly responsible for some battle-related work.
"Literature is a variety of skills, such as forging, refining pills, or medical skills, collecting medicines, drawing talismans, arranging arrays, etc."
"In the junior group, there is a certain age requirement. There is no need to assess their cultivation and skills. It only needs to test the bones, understanding, patience, etc., to prove that he has the potential, can become a great monk, or become a master of a certain skill.
"If you are particularly good, the age limit can be relaxed."
After Xu Gu finished speaking, everyone's eyes lit up.
This way of selecting talents is even more advanced than the assessment of the disciples recruited by various sects they have seen!
If it is, according to this kind of rule, select people who can move to Yanming City, and Yanming City may really be able to develop very prosperously.
But soon everyone was not interested.
After all, Yanming City is prosperous and powerful, and it has nothing to do with them!
In particular, in this case, it will also infringe on, greatly infringe on their interests!
"Yes." Although he was reluctant, he did not dare to disagree.
Ye Xuanxuan frowned and whispered to Xu Gu: "If you want to implement it, it may be a little difficult. ”
Ye Xuanxuan has experienced a lot of things in these events, it can be said that there are ups and downs, and the rest of his life after the catastrophe, his heart has matured, and he is a rare beauty within a radius of thousands of miles, and now it is even more attractive and tasteful.
It has attracted the attention of many power leaders.
However, seeing that Ye Xuanxuan and Xu Gu had a close relationship, Ye Xuanxuan was like Xu Gu's personal maid, so he didn't dare to have any greedy gaze anymore.
Of course, Xu Gu knew that it was naturally impossible to count on these people.
His idea was simple.
It is to build Yanming City into a city like an imperial dynasty, the Chen family is the royal family, the city lord is the emperor, and the city lord's mansion yamen is the court.
Completely put an end to the situation where the major families jointly control Yanming City.
The spring and autumn festivals will be compared, and they will all be alternative imperial examinations or college entrance examinations, and all people can participate, wilderness people, and mortals in the daughter country can also participate.
As long as you pass the assessment, you can enter Yanmingcheng, and then devote yourself to all walks of life to engage in production, no longer only pursue the promotion of force, improve production tools, improve production efficiency, Yanmingcheng become rich, it is also the top priority.
Since this is the case, it is naturally impossible to do nothing.
If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are rich, you will help the world!
Now, he doesn't have the power to change the world.
But the ability to change a city is still there!
Of course, these ideas must offend these forces, and if they want to implement them, in addition to bloody repression and violent implementation, they will also draw a big pie.
Xu Gu said: "Introduce someone to you." ”
Words landed.
A figure slowly walked out of the curtain.
It is the matchmaker of the daughter country, and the king of the daughter country, Jiang Changshan.
The two of them, one is a great monk at the peak of the mana realm, and their appearance and temperament have nothing to say.
And Jiang Changshan, as the king of the daughter country, naturally has a face that captivates the country and the city.
The two of them walked out, and everyone was stunned on the spot, a little surprised.
Xu Gu introduced: "These two are the nominal rulers of the daughter country. ”
The actual ruler, of course, is the Chen family.
"Daughter Country?" Everyone was slightly suspicious, although they had heard the title of daughter country, but they were confused.
Someone looked at the surging light on Jiang Changshan's body, and then raised his eyebrows slightly: "This is a mortal? ”
"Mortal?"
The crowd was shocked.
In the sect, or in the giant city, because of the need to plant the Holy Spirit Tree to isolate the heterogeneous matter and produce spiritual energy, mortals can be seen from time to time.
And they don't have this condition, most people have never seen a mortal for almost their entire lives, so they are naturally extremely surprised.
Xu Gu said suddenly: "There is a mortal realm nearby. ”
Swish!
Everyone stood up, and the excitement on their faces was not hidden at all.
The joy is palpable.
The value of the mortal kingdom is too high!
Just being able to produce a large amount of mortal flesh and blood, which can be used to irrigate and nurture the Holy Spirit Tree, so that Yan Ming City can be greatly protected from the invasion of heterogeneous organisms, is a great joy!
A mortal realm is already enough to support Yanming City!
With this Cave Heaven Blessed Land, their Yanming City may have a chance to develop into a giant city!
In this regard, the matchmaker naturally did not have any reaction.
And Jiang Changshan, the king of the daughter country, frowned and took half a step back.
Being stared at like this like a pack of wolves, it was hard for her to relax.
Xu Gu frowned.
The spirits on the field all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Jiang Changshan again.
Xu Gu said: "As everyone expected, near our Yanming City, we will also start planting the Holy Spirit Tree, and we will use a whole Holy Spirit Forest to surround Yanming City. Isolates heterogeneity and produces aura.
"These eight hundred places for moving to Yanming City are compensation."
Yanming City is a small place, just need to surround the city, the daughter has a population of millions in the country, if it is well maintained, it is not difficult to develop a population of 10 million.
Specially in Yanming City, a group of people were selected to set up an organization, which was responsible for raining and receiving the flood for the daughter country and ensuring that they were in good weather. and assisted the royal court of Zuo, governed the country, punished corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and so on.
There are no external enemies, and no internal fighting is allowed, and the people are still living very well and comfortably.
It can be done, sustainable harvesting.
In particular, the daughter country inherited part of the luck of the ancient daughter country, and the quality of mortals was far beyond that of ordinary mortal countries.
It only takes 100,000 mortals every year to make Yanming City isolate most of the heterogeneity and increase its aura.
I believe that it won't be long before many half-step Yuan Realm powerhouses will emerge in Yan Ming City, and there will be more Mana Realm cultivators, and their strength will be greatly improved.
"Everything has a price." Xu Gu said: "The daughter country sacrifices 100,000 mortals every year, and Yanming City is able to raise the Holy Spirit Forest and avoid the monks in the city from being tortured by heterogeneity. And the price is the number of places to move to Yanming City.
"These 100,000 people will know what kind of situation they are facing, and they will participate in the assessment, and they will not let them die in vain, and in the assessment, the 800 people with the best results. You will be given the opportunity to move to Yanming City and start your cultivation. And no suppression. ”
Xu Gu sighed when he said this.
That's all he can do.
Let mortals know the truth, sign up voluntarily, and let them participate in the assessment, and decide their fate with their own strength, rather than relying on luck to escape the bloodbath. And ensure that after moving to Yanming City, no one will suppress it.
At the same time, the retention ratio will be greatly increased.
One hundred thousand lives eight hundred, although it is not high, but it is already eight times higher than the survival rate of Xuanzhen Sect.
Other sects are even more ruthless, and the survival rate is often difficult to 1 in 10,000.
In fact, after these mortal disciples entered the upper realm, because they would be suppressed, the survival rate was very low, and even a peerless sect like Xuanzhen Sect could hardly have one in 100,000. Other small sects, let alone small forces.
He was able to do this far, and he did his best.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, everyone on the field changed color.
I feel that these conditions are too biased in favor of the mortal realm!
You must know that in the ranking of the status of the cultivation world, the status of the monks in the city is higher than that of the wilderness scavengers, and the status of the wilderness scavengers is much higher than that of mortals!
In their eyes, mortals are like ants.
And Jiang Changshan, the king of the daughter country who was nervous on the side, breathed a sigh of relief.
This gave the conditions, for them, it was a great joy.
Because, before, when Xu Gu did not wipe out the demons on Lao Mu Mountain in his daughter's country, they had to make offerings every year, and the people who gave them those demons were only much more than this!
Nothing good yet!
Now, not only can the country be stable for a long time, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, but those who are eager to ask for immortals can also have a reliable and safe way to ask for immortals!
"If these eight hundred places for moving to Yanming City are all given to the mortal realm, what about the scavengers in the wilderness?" Someone asked.
This is also a matter of concern to everyone.
Since they are dissatisfied with these conditions, but they dare not say it, they can only express their dissatisfaction in this way.
"The wilderness people also have to participate in the assessment, and if they fail the assessment, they will also be thrown into the Holy Spirit Forest. According to the proportion, one wilderness person can be worth ten people, how many people can be gathered, and how many places can be obtained. ”
Xu Gu said: "Of course, the elimination rate of wilderness people can be lower, and it doesn't need to be too high. As for the specific proportion and elimination rate, there will be a special agency to formulate it privately. In short, if you pay, you will be rewarded. If you get something, you have to pay for it. ”
This is the fairness that Xu Gu can think of.
Although, in terms of cruelty, it is not particularly fair. But in this world, it is no longer easy.
The crowd was silent.
They were protected by the Holy Spirit Forest, and they were no longer tortured by heterogeneity, and at the same time, the concentration of spiritual energy in the city increased, and their cultivation increase speed and upper limit could also be greatly increased.
And at the price, they will have to meet the influx of wilderness and mortals, competing with them for power and resources.
In fact, there are pros and cons, if they can seize the opportunity to recruit a large number of wilderness and mortals, and cling to the Chen family, there is also the possibility of recasting glory.
Thinking of this, everyone sighed, reluctantly accepted these development plans, and tried their best to implement them.
Because, all of them know that Xu Gu is a ruthless person, this is already the last concession, if you dare to play tricks, then there is no need to exist.
Seeing this, Xu Gu nodded with satisfaction.
Although this is a small step, it is just an attempt, but everything is difficult at the beginning, and this step is very important.
