"Simon picks stars, these people will never dare to attack you regardless of their identity. However, you have to beware that they don't dare to do it openly, maybe secretly. For example, the territory assigned to you this time is centered on Huangshapo, with a radius of 100 miles. ”

"Theoretically, it seems reasonable for the three parties to jointly contribute land as a reward. However, this kind of tripartite junction, regardless of the zone, is more dangerous, not to mention, messy things will also be a headache. ”

Li Jiumu reminded.

"Oh?"

Li Chengfei didn't have time to look at the map after getting it, so he saw it at this time.

I saw that the map was divided into two sides, and the front was a map of the surrounding general trend, with the words "Liangzhou Mansion Map" written on it.

The map is relatively simple, only showing some important towns, mountains, rivers, etc. Liangzhou City, the Tomorrow Sect and the Demon Clan are all included, and it looks like a radius of about 100,000 miles.

Of course, most of them are inaccessible places such as the 100,000 Great Mountains and the Taliu Desert.

One of the small circles marked the place where Li Chengfei was located.

On the reverse side of the map, it reads "Tomorrow and tomorrow, Li Chengfei, a disciple of the outer sect of the Sect, is not a territorial map".

This piece of territory, with Huangshapo as the center, encompasses a radius of 100 miles, and the map is very detailed, marking villages, roads, mountains, rivers, streams, etc.

"Zhaojiazhuang?" Li Chengfei saw a familiar name on the map, and after comparing the position, he determined that this was the Zhaojiazhuang he was familiar with.

"This Zhaojiazhuang, if I'm not mistaken, it's Qi Xiaoer and Fei Junyi's village, right? Isn't there some kind of Zhao Jizi Immortal Master in this village? Li Chengfei asked.

"Not bad!" Li Jiumu nodded, "That's why I said that it's a mess here, it's a headache!" After the immortal cultivator builds the foundation, he must have his own territory. What is the purpose of being territorial? In addition to using the power of the earth spirit to cultivate, there is also the use of the land to produce food, incense, and so on! ”

"Even some territories will have ore veins, which can produce spirit stones, ores, etc. Of course, this kind of fertile territory is extremely sought-after, and it has long been occupied by the major immortal sects, imperial courts, families, etc., and ordinary people can't take their turn. ”

"However, because the immortal realm has been separated from the two realms forever until now, it has been eight thousand years. Not to mention the ancient period, in the past 8,000 years alone, various relationships have been complicated. ”

"For example, although your territory is nominally given to you, the population and land on the land may already belong to you. Take this Zhaojiazhuang as an example, the incense power generated by the population of a village has actually been harvested by Zhao Isozi. ”

"In fact, it's not just Zhaojiazhuang. Zhao Jizi has controlled the incense power of at least a dozen villages. If my prediction is correct, I am afraid that the incense wish power of every village and town in your territory is the owner's. ”

"And, because they were the first to come, their occupation has become a precedent. It's very difficult for you to get it back from them. But if you don't accept it, you won't get a single cent of incense. ”

"What is the incense wish used for? If I don't take the path of incense to become a god, don't I need incense willpower? Li Chengfei asked.

He has always felt that relying on incense to become a god is with the help of external forces, not a long-term way. Therefore, I didn't pay too much attention to the way of incense.

"The way of incense is unique and involves the beliefs of mortals. So, it's always been word of mouth. Once mortals are allowed to know the way of the incense wish, they are afraid that they will lose their faith, which will cause the incense wish power to disintegrate. Therefore, although you have experienced a lot of incense scriptures, it is normal for you not to understand the way of incense. ”

Li Jiumu paused slightly, took a sip of fairy fruit tea, and then continued:

"It's not just monks who follow the path of incense to become gods need incense willpower. Everyone likes the Incense Wish because it can be used to make burnt coins. Many monks use Dao vessels to receive incense wish power, directly transforming burning coins, and then can use the burning coins to exchange for any required cultivation resources. ”

"Convert incense wish power into burning coins?"

Li Chengfei finally understood why when he first entered the immortal realm, Li Dingguo and Hu Yan both chose to use coins to drive the Desert Boat, and were reluctant to use spirit stones.

Burning coins is less efficient and more expensive, however, the Castle Lord's Mansion can make coin burns...... Li Dingguo said so at that time.

Now, Li Chengfei knows how the City Lord's Mansion makes coins to burn.

Mortals are human mines!

"Yes." Li Jiumu nodded, "It is impossible for the vast majority of foundation building cultivators to have minerals or spiritual veins in their territories. The two main sources of income are incense and wishing; The other is the taxation of fertile land."

"But unfortunately, not only will you not be able to get the incense power, but you may not be able to get the tax revenue of the land."

"You mean, monks are exempt from tax and signed by?" Li Chengfei suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Not bad!" Li Jiumu said, "If I guessed correctly, you can have a good land in the name of a mortal, even if you are lucky." Most of them must have been attached to the names of Tongzi Realm cultivators, or even immortal cultivators. ”

"You won't get a penny of your taxes. But I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything. Because it has always been customary for mortal fields to be attached to the monks. Even the imperial court has a headache because of this. ”

Even today's saints have long known about this drawback, but they are helpless. Because this involves the interests of all immortal cultivators. Whoever changes this is the enemy of all immortal cultivators. ”

"It is said ......"

Speaking of this, Li Jiumu's tone was a little cautious, and he seemed to hesitate a little before continuing:

"Does Li Xiaoyou know how the emperor died?"

"I don't know."

"Drowned."

"Drowning?"

"Yes." Li Jiumu nodded, with a little irrepressible anger in his voice, and a little bit of depression, "The dignified Emperor Daqi, who got the royal secret inheritance, is a master of cultivating immortals, but he drowned in his own imperial garden. ”

"Shhh Li Chengfei took a slight breath of cold air between his teeth.

A master of cultivating immortals, but he drowned, which sounds like a joke. What's more, this is Emperor Daqi.

"Do you think this will cause an uproar?" Li Jiumu asked.

"Isn't it?"

"Nope!" Li Jiumu shook his head, "On the day when the emperor drowned, the court was as calm as ever except for the funeral for the emperor. The cause of death was given by the Tai Hospital, which was that the former emperor went mad while cultivating, resulting in a sudden heart disease, so he fell into the water and died. ”

The eunuchs of the palace also testified that the emperor liked to walk alone in the imperial garden. On that day, the emperor happened to retreat left and right, so no one saw the process of the emperor falling into the water. However, they did not see anyone entering or leaving the Imperial Garden, and the palace ban was not triggered. Therefore, from inside and outside the palace, to the court, there is no objection to this. ”

"Only Feng Hao, the Imperial Historian, thinks that the death of the emperor is suspicious. This Feng Hao is the champion of the department. After the palace examination, he practiced and took the wrong pill and was seriously ill and bedridden. The first emperor once visited him in micro-clothes, and personally took matters into his hands to remove the cold poison from his body. Therefore, Feng Hao felt the kindness of the emperor and was loyal to the emperor. ”

Feng Hao gathered a group of people to thoroughly investigate the cause of the emperor's death, and it is said that he also got some evidence. However, within a few days, there was a demon clan in the capital, Feng Hao was unlucky, and he met the big demon on the way down to the court and was killed by the big demon. ”

Since then, no one has dared to mention the matter of the emperor. Now that the Holy Lord has ascended the throne, there is no mention of the exemption of monks. And the exemption of monks from taxation is a taboo, and no one dares to mention it. ”

"So, Li Xiaoyou, even if you really can't collect a penny of land tax, you can't break this practice. This is a rule that even today dare not move. Li Xiaoyou, no matter who you offend, as long as you hide in my Jiumu Villa, I am confident that I can save your life. However, once you break this rule and break this taboo, you will be the enemy of all the monks in the world, and even I will not be able to protect you! ”

Li Jiumu deliberately emphasized.

"So, I have a hundred miles of territory, but I can't collect any money?" Li Chengfei's eyes narrowed and said.

"Not necessarily. For this land of a hundred miles, with its people, and its mountains and forests, is yours. So, you can tax your people. For example, let them go into the mountains and pick medicinal herbs for you. As an immortal master of this land, you are qualified to set a tax amount for the people. In addition to paying a certain percentage of taxes to the Lord's Mansion, you should be able to make a surplus. Li Jiumu said.
