Chapter 300: Persuasion
At the end of February, the task column of the Tianlan Sect announced the candidates to go to the Forsaken Land, a total of seven people, led by Li Changsheng and Chen Shiyue, and the other five were also in the Divine Soul Realm.
They were going to leave in mid-March, and the gossip was spreading, and some people had already said that they would increase the tribute of Great Wei, which was actually mentioned two years ago.
Because in the past two years, the Tianxu Sect spread the news in the scattered cultivation, saying that the Great Wei is full of resources, and the force of the Great Wei is very weak, which has caused the scattered cultivation to flock to the top, and even the disciples of the Tianlan Sect are very jealous.
This news also finally reached the ears of the disciples of the Great Wei in the Tianlan Sect, and most of the people who came to the sect of the Great Wei were the elites of the Great Wei, so as soon as they saw the announcement, they roughly guessed what was going on.
"Senior Brother Land Rover, we should persuade Senior Uncle Changsheng in this matter, this is not a blessing or a curse to go to Great Wei"
"Senior brother, what's going on?"
"Senior Brother Land Rover, you were born in Yongdu City since you were a child, you don't understand local things, I am from Pingzhou, and Pingzhou has the most mines, and it is the most suffered, Pingzhou in order to make up enough tribute to the sect, Pingzhou has to levy 200,000 laborers every year to mine, die of exhaustion, die of illness, and mine disasters, and the people who die every year are not less than 1,000 people.
It can be said that the entire Great Wei has suffered greatly because of this incident, and now the sect is not satisfied with the current amount of tribute, and will increase the tribute, which will inevitably lead to more deaths.
And when I asked the Immortal Pavilion, there were officials in the DPRK and China who told me about this matter, and the people of insight in the court were already extremely dissatisfied, if Uncle Changsheng went to Dawei, he would inevitably be hated by others, and Dawei might rebel against the sect because of this, and then you and my family would suffer."
A disciple of Da Wei said to Land Rover that their feelings for Da Wei are very complicated, and they don't have much sense of belonging to Da Wei, but their sense of belonging to their family is very strong.
"Senior brother, then you say, what should I do, if you don't go to Changsheng, someone will go"
"Uncle Changsheng can go, but you must pay attention to the means, and you must not come by force, to ensure that Great Wei will not rebel, otherwise you and my family will suffer, there are not a few people with irascible personalities like the sect and Wei Jian Zhenjun"
The man said, they entered the Xianmen, they are all nobles in Dawei, most of the family members are in Yongdu City, if Dawei rebels, it will be bad if there is another Wei Jian, and if the sword goes down, Yongdu City will be gone, and their family will be gone.
"I understand, I'll persuade Senior Brother Changsheng"
"I also have to tell Jiang Cheng about this, he is the strongest person among us after all"
"Okay, I'll let him know"
Land Rover nodded, he was also worried about his parents in Yongdu City, if his parents died tragically because of this, he would also regret it for life.
······
"City Lord, I'm bothering you again"
"What's the matter?"
"Take a Leave of Employment"
"What to do, how long will it take"
"I'm done with the pills, I'm going to go out and buy some pills, let's take a month's leave"
"You even lie to me, why does it take so long to buy a pill, you want to go back to the sect?"
"The lord of the city is really powerful, you guessed it, go back and see your friends"
"Jiang Cheng, you are a smart person, I won't say much else, you have to be clear, what the sect wants to do, you are powerless to stop it, don't kill yourself"
"Jiang Cheng is not stupid, he naturally knows how to do it"
"Okay, then give you a month's vacation, keep a low profile, don't make trouble for me, I can't hold on to big things"
Zhang Qi replied, he guessed what Jiang Cheng was going to do at once, and he was quite pleased with this, so it seems that Jiang Cheng is not the kind of person who is ruthless and unrighteous, and it is better to have a human touch than to not recognize his six relatives.
Jiang Cheng was immediately overjoyed, and after taking leave with Zhang Qi, he quickly left Taoyuan City, sneaked all the way, and then returned to the sect in the teleportation array out of the high-priced city.
"Jiang Cheng, you came back so soon, I thought it would take you half a month to come back."
"It cost fifteen thousand spirit jade to come back in the teleportation array."
Jiang Cheng said that when he went to Taoyuan City, he was on official business and didn't need to spend money, but when he came back this time, it was a private operation, and there was no free teleportation array.
"You're so rich"
"Li Changsheng, have you persuaded you?"
"Persuaded, persuaded not to move, the sect should have promised heavy profits"
"I know, he won't move if there is no weight in this matter, help me make an appointment with him, I want to meet him"
"Okay, where to meet"
"Let's be in his cave"
Jiang Cheng said that he knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to give it a try, and if he didn't try his best, he would always be unhappy.
Early in the morning of the second day, Jiang Cheng came to Li Changsheng's cave, after Li Changsheng broke through the cave, his identity rose, and he could open a cave on a hill at the mountain gate, which could occupy about three acres according to the rules, so the medicinal fields and the like were all complete, and the environmental location was good.
"Mao Cui tea from outside the Yongdu City of Great Wei, Elder Brother try it"
After Jiang Cheng and Li Changsheng reported to each other, Jiang Cheng took out the specialty of Dawei, which was produced in a tea mountain outside Yongdu City, and its reputation in Dawei was not small, and many dignitaries and nobles also drank this.
"Jiang Cheng, are you here to persuade me?"
"Yes"
"It's useless for you to persuade me, the key to this matter is the sect's attitude towards Dawei, not me, the manager, I don't do it, some people do it, Tianlan Sect has no shortage of disciples, and there is no shortage of Dongxuan Zhenren"
"I understand, so my persuasion is not to let you go"
"So what do you want to say?"
"Does Brother Changsheng know how many people Da Wei has to die in order to make up for these tributes?"
"I've heard people say it, but Jiang Cheng, you also have to know that when Daxuan was destroyed by Wei Jian Zhenjun with a sword, millions of people died in Tianjing City, and after twenty years of scuffle, countless people died, compared to this, this person is nothing"
"What you said makes sense, so when I was in Dawei, I also suppressed those who rebelled against Xianmen, that is, the Xian rebel party, because I knew that unless Dawei had the strength to resist Xianmen, I could only accept the fact in front of me."
Jiang Cheng said, what Li Changsheng said made sense, if Great Wei didn't pay tribute, it would not be as simple as dying thousands of people every year, and Tianlan Sect would not show mercy.
"So what the hell are you trying to say?"
"Before I came, Great Wei was very corrupt and incompetent, asking the Immortal Pavilion to be arrogant, the imperial family was arrogant and incompetent, and the officials were mediocre and corrupt, and then I rose in Great Wei, and Li Hongsleeve joined forces to set up the emperor, we fought corruption, popularized education, rectified the imperial court, and stopped party strife, I could have easily overthrown your Li rule, but I didn't do it, do you know why?"
"Why"
"Because I still have a trace of kindness in my heart, I'd rather spend more time to transform Dawei than see too many people die"
"What does this have to do with today's events?"
Li Changsheng felt that he was dizzy, didn't he want to persuade him, why did he say this, and what did it have to do with today's events.
"Yes, I left someone in Dawei, and Li Hongsleeve was also there, I hope that after you go, don't interfere in Dawei's mission affairs, and at the same time restrain the people of the sect in the past, and in exchange, I will tell Li Hongsleeve to cooperate with you as much as possible and let you complete the task of the sect."
"People go to tea and cool, and you decide that you can still command them?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I'm serious, if the formal efficiency of the Great Wei Imperial Court is improved, even if the tribute increases, in fact, many people will not die, this is transitional, but the premise is that you don't force it, give the Great Wei time to react"
"If that's the case, I can promise, I'll go, just to complete the task, I'm not interested in Da Wei"
Li Changsheng nodded, if this is the case, he can indeed agree, he is in order to choose his own family after ten years, not to go back to be the emperor, the emperor of mortals has a fart meaning.
"Then it's decided, I'll wait here for a few days, and when this year's personnel arrive, I'll write to them and tell them to cooperate with you as much as possible."
"Thank you, we can also contact more in the future, there are too few people in the sect of Great Wei"
Li Changsheng raised his glass and said, Jiang Cheng has a great reputation, and this time he didn't persuade him with hatred, to be honest, he had a very good impression of Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng and Li Changsheng chatted for most of the day, and then left, Jiang Cheng went directly out of the core area of Tianlan Sect, went to the periphery, and after looking for three days, he finally found the people of Tsing Yi Wei.
"Sir, I've found you"
When Zhang Datong saw Jiang Cheng, he was immediately overjoyed and very excited.
"When did you come?"
"It came last year, slower than you"
"How do you live here?"
Jiang Cheng asked, Zhang Datong was a cadre who immigrated in Flying Bird Mountain back then, and later he directly joined Tsing Yi Wei, but he didn't expect Yang Shen to send him, he can be regarded as an acquaintance, and he is also a diehard fan of Jiang Cheng, so it will be easy to do.
Zhang Datong quickly answered Jiang Cheng's question, and after they came, they inquired about Jiang Cheng's whereabouts everywhere, knowing that Jiang Cheng was thousands of miles away, they didn't dare to look for it, because there were too few people here, so they started to operate here.
Relying on the resources brought from Great Wei, they still have no problem living here, and they have also developed some people, but they are all mortals.
"Have you established a communication channel with Great Wei?"
"Not yet, but it should be possible this year, Lord Yang will send more people, if there is a master, maybe he can cross the sea in other months, and he can establish a perfect contact channel"
"Okay, when the time comes, you can contact me directly, and I want to contact Dawei directly"
Jiang Cheng said, after calculating the time, there are still ten days, and the people of Dawei are about to arrive, Jiang Cheng decided to stay here, if he can meet acquaintances, it is the best.
If you can't meet an acquaintance, you have to bring his letter back, Dawei is very dangerous now, according to what he knows about Yang Shen and Li Hongsleeve, they are likely to resist violently, and Jiang Cheng does not approve of it.
Because Dawei really doesn't have the strength to compete with the Xianmen, after coming to the Tianlan Sect, he feels more and more the strength of the Tianlan Sect, not to mention anything else, there are at least hundreds of Dongxuan real people alone, how to fight, all the masters of Yongdu City can't be beaten together, so it should be admitted or admitted, and those who should be dormant will continue to hibernate.
