Chapter 182: The sincerity of the Tokugawa family, inviting the temple to Toei

It's just that compared to Tokugawa Hirami's doubts, Mrs. Joan is about to go crazy.

She's no ordinary person.

Rather, it's a, well, a witch, so to speak, or a magician.

It has an ancient and mysterious bloodline.

Lady Joan is not very capable.

But very distinctive.

She can see things that ordinary people can't, and this ability is called psisight.

After entering the palace.

Lady Joan's eyes were full of thunder.

Overwhelming!

It was as if I had come to the middle of the devastating sea of thunder.

Deep in the hall.

Yang Xu is like the core of this thunder sea, blooming endless thunder, like the sun hanging from the sky, and this piece of heaven and earth is integrated.

Under the blazing sun, a mythical beast lay prone.

The whole body is composed of blazing white thunder, as if it is transformed by thunder, and the body exudes a dazzling light.

I can't see what it looks like.

But just by looking at it, people can't help but feel numb in the scalp and weak all over the body.

It was an instinctive reaction in the face of apex predators.

Fear from deep in the genes!

Mrs. Joan's pupils constricted, looking at the scene in front of her, fine cold sweat unconsciously appeared on her smooth forehead, and her slightly powdered face became pale, nervous, frightened, and uneasy.

Even the breathing became faint and almost inaudible.

She had never felt such power.

So terrifying.

So scary.

It is completely impossible to peek into the depths.

I just feel that even heaven and earth have been suppressed, and this world has become a domain controlled by the other party.

"Roar~~"

As if sensing Mrs. Joan's prying eyes, the divine beast lying prone under the thunderous sun suddenly opened its eyes.

What kind of eyes are they.

It seems that the endless sea of thunder contains the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.

When the thunder beast opened its eyes, the heavens and the earth suddenly changed.

But I saw a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

"Boom~~"

Above the main peak, thunder roared.

The mountains trembled with the endless roar of thunder.

In the sea of thunder that Mrs. Joan saw, there were thousands of thunderbolts.

It was as if hundreds of millions of ferocious dragons were rushing towards Mrs. Joan.

Despair!

Fear!

Not even the will to resist could arise.

"Ah~~"

The rolling sea of thunder has not yet hit, and Mrs. Joan has lost her face.

She screamed and fell to her knees with limp legs.

This terrible scream attracted everyone's attention.

Yang Xu.

Jiang Yaoxi.

Bei Mingzhu.

as well as many palace maids and guards.

Of course, there is also Tokugawa Hirakai.

He looked at Lady Joan in astonishment.

I saw that she was trembling, her face was as pale as white paper, there was not a trace of blood, her eyes had lost their luster, and she looked overly frightened.

This situation left Tokugawa Hirami scratching his head.

It wasn't okay just now.

How suddenly.

Yang Xu glanced thoughtfully at the frightened Mrs. Joan.

The beauty flower is discolored, and it is still a beautiful picture.

Just now, the thunder beast spirit in his body was touched.

The source of the touch was none other than Mrs. Joan.

Yang Xu thought about it secretly and instantly understood what was going on. Mrs. Joan inadvertently spied on the Thunder Beast Elf, so it triggered a little backlash from the Thunder Beast Elf!

This made Yang Xu couldn't help but be a little more interested in Mrs. Qiong.

It's not about the body.

Rather, it refers to ability.

"Ignorant fool, with your little ability, you are trying to spy on my king."

Pei Mingzhu had a cold face and mocked Mrs. Joan mercilessly.

The mermaids are good at manipulating the sea, but the Kraken is good at soul magic.

They play with the soul and charm all beings. So what had just happened, she saw it very clearly, and she understood what had happened to Mrs. Joan.

Mrs. Joan was aggrieved.

She was born with this ability, and she didn't have a switch button.

It's not like I haven't encountered powerful Inhumans before.

But never saw anything like it.

The vision alone nearly destroyed her spirit.

Tokugawa Heikai suddenly realized, but was not surprised.

The ancient kingdom that even angels feared, if he didn't have strong strength, he didn't believe it.

He was more interested in Lady Joan's prying eyes than in this matter.

What did this woman see, and she was so frightened.

Madame Joan relented for a moment, and only then did she regain some of her spirits. She didn't dare to slack off, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Yang Xu again, and hurriedly explained nervously: "Venerable Lord Xu, I definitely didn't mean to snoop on you. My ability is innate, I can see things that ordinary people can't see, but I can't control my ability either. ”

"Please also believe in my sincerity, I absolutely have no disrespectful intentions, and I will never dare to give birth to such thoughts."

Mrs. Joan staggered to her feet and gave her explanation in Chinese. The speed of speech is extremely fast, for fear that if he is slow for a second, he will be misunderstood by Yang Xu.

She's really scared now.

That power was completely beyond her comprehension.

Yang Xu didn't know if what Mrs. Joan said was true or not, but it didn't matter now.

Mrs. Joan has learned her lesson.

That's not a bad thing.

At least, her attitude is now very respectful, even a little afraid!

Yang Xu said flatly: "The ignorant are not guilty, spare you once." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Mrs. Joan breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed.

She was really afraid that Yang Xu would blame her.

After all, this kind of thing can be big or small.

It may not seem like a big deal in modern times, but in the ancient past, or in myths and legends, there are similar stories.

Whoever tries to spy on the true body of the gods will be punished by God!

"Greetings, Your Majesty. I am Joan Elizabeth Emily, the Sunset Ambassador, and I am here to pay you my highest respect on behalf of the Sunset. ”

"Your divine light shines like the sun, and your power fears heaven and earth like the thunder of the sky."

After Mrs. Qiong calmed down a little, she bent down slightly and introduced herself to Yang Xu elegantly and decently.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have been able to connect this elegant and noble woman with the person who had just lost her mind.

Even Tokugawa Hirakai couldn't help but admire.

Terrible.

"Your Majesty, I am Tokugawa Hirakai, the patriarch of the Toei Tokugawa family, and it is my honor and honor to be here to express my respect to you."

Tokugawa Hirakai followed closely and expressed his respect to Yang Xu.

After the polite words, Tokugawa Hirakai directly stated his purpose.

"I have come to visit this time in the hope that your glory can shine on Dongying, and your glory can bless the people of Dongying. Let my fellow citizens bask in your radiance, receive the right guidance, and feel your kindness and tolerance, greatness and glory. ”

Speaking of this, Tokugawa Hirakai secretly glanced at Yang Xu, and his tone was a little nervous.

Such nervous emotions have not appeared in him for many years.

But at this moment, in front of Yang Xu, this celebrity, who has made countless people look up to him, is as uneasy as a primary school student who has made a mistake.

Very nervous.

And after listening to Tokugawa Pinghai's words, Yang Xu raised his eyebrows.

Something unexpected!

He had also guessed Tokugawa Hirami's purpose.

But I didn't expect that

Tokugawa Hirami is so understanding!

Going to the Dongying Development Temple, this is naturally an excellent thing. Where is Toei, on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, it can be said that it is one of the closest countries to Asahi Province.

It has the best geographical location for the early construction of the faith network.

In addition, Dongying has a huge population and one of the world's top economies.

If the temple can be developed here at will, there is no doubt that it can greatly promote the development speed of the Xuguo Temple and bring a huge amount of faith power to Yang Xu.

But didn't it come too easily?

Before I even asked, you sent yourself to the door.

However, the Tokugawa family gave such good conditions, and it is estimated that the request will not be small.

Yang Xu pondered: "That's it. ”

Tokugawa Hirakai's heart suddenly burst and he secretly took a deep breath.

If you want to let Xu Guo loosen up, you still have to pay some price.

However, if you can get the support of Asahikoku, it will be worth the cost. He believes that when Xuguo sees his sincerity, he will definitely consider developing to Dongying first.

After all, Xuguo's current strategy can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye that he wants to go to the earth to develop.

It's just that Tokugawa Hirakai didn't dare to wait.

The protection system of the Seagod Kingdom has collapsed, and who knows when the sea beast will appear in Dongying's land.

Although Toei is not the Tokugawa family's Tokugawa family, Toei's life and death, prosperity and decline are directly related to the wealth and safety of the Tokugawa family. It is impossible for the Tokugawa family to leave Toei because of danger, even if this can bring short-term safety, but the Tokugawa family that left Toei is still the Tokugawa family.

After thinking about it, Tokugawa Heikai directly gave the greatest sincerity.

"I understand that this request is very abrupt and very difficult for Your Majesty. But please also trust Your Majesty in my sincerity and in the respect that our Tokugawa family has for you. As a token of our sincerity in the Tokugawa family, we are willing to cover all the construction costs of the shrine in Toei, as well as other costs, in order to pray that your glory may envelop Toei. ”

Tokugawa Hirakai has a firm and decisive attitude.

Bearing all the construction costs of the Asahi Kingdom Shrine in Dongying is naturally astronomical.

But Tokugawa Hirakai is not a fool either.

When the Tokugawa family bought land, they naturally did not only buy the land for the temple, but also the land around the temple. The land for the shrine belongs to the shrine, and the rest of the land naturally belongs to the Tokugawa family.

How much profit the Tokugawa family will receive if they get these lands can be imagined by Tokugawa Hirakai.

Astronomical!

When the sea beasts come to attack, the land around the temple will be sky-high!

Soaring dozens of times, hundreds of times, it's easy.

At that time, the Tokugawa family will not only not lose money, but will also make money.

However, worldly wealth is not what Tokugawa Hirakai values most. What he cares about the most is the cooperation with Asahi Kook.

This partnership will greatly strengthen the ties between the Tokugawa family and Asahuki and bring them closer.

Yang Xu:.

He had heard that pie would fall from the sky, but he had never heard of gold falling from the sky.

Tokugawa Hirami's sincerity is simply not too sufficient.

not only took the initiative to pull Xu Guo to preach, but also gave money and land, what a boy who scattered wealth.

If Yang Xu didn't have any sense, he couldn't wait to agree immediately.

He said: "Your sincerity, Lone has seen it, but this matter Lone still needs to consider." ”

Tokugawa Pinghai's sincerity was so good that it made Yang Xu wonder if there was a conspiracy.

Of course, the most important problem is that although the mission to Dongying is in the plan of the Asahi Kingdom, this plan is relatively late.

Compared with the fertile soil of Dongying, Mermaid Market and Nanyang are better choices at this stage.

Poor and backward, people are ignorant, and they have a deeper fear of mythology.

To put it simply, it's a good fool.

And the current population of Xuguo, as well as the number of priests in the temple, are not enough to support the vigorous development of the Dongying market now!

This made Yang Xu very painful.

Obviously, the big cake sent to the door, but I can't eat it.

It's just uncomfortable.

If you give Xuguo another half a year, it's not that you can't go to Dongying.

Just now

Yang Xu shook his head slightly and sighed secretly.

It's just that the population of Xuguo is too small.

Tokugawa Hirakai chuckled in his heart, and a little panic flashed in the depths of his eyes.

What I feared most happened anyway.

Asahi is not satisfied with this chip!

However, it is normal.

It's just that such a bargaining chip wants to get the aid of Asahi Country, which is indeed a bit whimsical.

Tokugawa Hirami smiled self-deprecatingly, his thoughts spinning quickly.

This is already the greatest sincerity he can show.

After all, Toei is not from his Tokugawa family.

Land, money, was the only thing he could get his hands on.

As for other policies, or some more sensitive things, even if he wants to use them as bargaining chips, he doesn't have the right to do so.

But Tokugawa Hirakai did not dare to give up, and he could not give up.

This is Dongying's last chance.

It was also the last chance for the Tokugawa family.

This is the most important point.

Tokugawa Heikai thought about it for a long time, and instantly had an idea.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I know that the request just now is very presumptuous, but please see the pious attitude of the Tokugawa family and give us a little mercy. I will do my best to convince the authorities to openly support the development of the temple and support the spread of the temple in Dongying with official power. ”

"They will see your greatness, understand that your divine power cannot be stopped by mortals, and understand that the temple has an important role to play in Dongying that cannot be ignored."

In this regard, Tokugawa Hirakai is very confident.

When the sea beast descends, the U.S. Federation can't give Dongying more protection.

He believes in the choices of politicians who are controlled by the US Federation.

As for those who are still stubborn, Tokugawa Hirakai will find a way to make them decent and walk very decently.

And he also believes that when the sea beast comes, his compatriots will see clearly who is more trustworthy and who is the real savior of Dongying.

Tokugawa Pinghai gritted his teeth and said: "I am willing to dedicate seventy percent of the net profits generated by the land near the temple to the temple to help the poor and poor." ”

Seventy percent of net profit is not a small amount.

But Tokugawa Heikai believed that the remaining 30% of the profits would be enough to make the Tokugawa family richer and stronger.

After all, this is pure profit.

The point is that without Asahikoku, the Tokugawa family would not be able to monetize it.

No one cares about a wasteland.

Especially after the disaster struck, Tokugawa Hirakai could foresee how many people would choose to leave Toei. At that time, the price of land will fall sharply, which is an inevitable economic phenomenon.

Yang Xu pondered a little and understood why Tokugawa Pinghai was so generous.

The value of the land around the temple!

He chuckled and secretly admired.

It is worthy of being the patriarch of a large family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and he really has a unique vision, and he can find the business opportunities and profits contained in it at any time.

But he didn't hate Tokugawa Hirami's shrewdness.

For any transaction to be long-lasting, it must be a win-win situation.

Unilateral profitable trades cannot last.

Just like the trade of Xuguo in the mermaid market, why can it attract millions of people to come at the risk of their lives in a short period of time, it is not precisely because Xuguo has given enough profits.

Without enough profits, who will hunt the beast for the Asahi Kingdom?

Isn't that a dream.

Not to mention different countries.

Even if it's the same country.

If the state can't pay the salary, the people under it will rebel.

History has proven countless times that any group is nothing more than a collection of interests.

Yang Xu's mind turned and he responded.

"Exactly."

Tokugawa Hirakai has already given such sincerity, if Asahi has not responded, wouldn't he have taken the initiative to throw away the fat in his mouth.

As for the shortage of manpower.

Yang Xu thought of a simple solution.

Build a small number of shrines first, and slowly train priests to increase the strength of the Asahi Kingdom. For the time being, it is mainly based on the mermaid market and the South Seas.

Tokugawa Hirakai couldn't help but be overjoyed, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although most of the profits were ceded.

But it's worth it.

Unable to suppress his excitement, he knelt down on one knee and said gratefully: "Your Majesty, your kindness is as warm as the sun, and your glory will surely shine on the whole Dongying." ”

Yang Xu did not respond, and looked sideways at Mrs. Qiong.

Although Mrs. Qiong lowered her head, she did not dare to continue to look directly at Yang Xu.

But when Yang Xu looked at it, she still had a clear feeling.

Heaviness.

There was a faint roar of thunder in the air.

Just in the face of Yang Xu's gaze, Mrs. Qiong secretly smiled bitterly.

Tokugawa Hirakai gave too much.

So much so that she doesn't know how to speak now.

The sun does not set, and there is no such condition as Tokugawa Hirakai.

It's impossible to get it.

The sun never sets is a traditional Christian nation, and their belief in God has been passed down for thousands of years, deep in the marrow of the marrow, and deep in the soul.

Even if he proposed to introduce the temple to the sunset, he would be subjected to endless abuse and become a sinner in the eyes of the countrymen, let alone the conditions of the Tokugawa family.

It is not that Mrs. Joan is unaware of Tokugawa Hiraumi's thoughts and the means of making profits in them.

But the problem is that she is not Tokugawa Hirakai.

Her family doesn't have that power when the sun never sets.

As for the king, or any other family.

Mrs. Joan shook her head secretly.

Again, they wouldn't make such a decision.

At least not yet.

Otherwise, the sun never sets on a democratic system that will ruin them and leave their beloved politics forever.

Unless the sun never sets on the people who realize they have no choice!

But it will take time.

They are required to pay for their arrogance.

Madame Joan was silent for a moment, but finally spoke.

"I sincerely invite the Asahi Shrine to come and develop as the sun never sets."

Even if she knew it wasn't timely, it might even ruin her career.

But if she had to wait until the people paid the price, she would rather take a little responsibility herself. Although this will be infamous for a short time, people will understand whether this decision is the right one in the future.

It's just that in the face of the conditions given by Mrs. Qiong, Yang Xu politely refused.

Dongying is already the limit, and the sun does not set too far away.

And Europe is the traditional territory of angels.

Long-range combat is not in the interests of the Asahi country, and the current Asahi country needs to develop and stabilize, rather than risk going deeper.

The meeting did not last long, and Mrs. Joan was eventually disappointed.

However, Tokugawa Hirami was complacent.

When the two left Zhenhai City and arrived at Matou Island, thousands of reporters and anchors were waiting for them.

They come from all over the world.

From different ethnicities.

But today, they are gathered here for the same thing.
