Chapter 367: Settle the Score
Hmph! Zhang He turned his head and ignored this guy. How to say that Zhang He is also a deacon, if ordinary people dare to say the words "you don't understand" to Zhang He, Zhang He will definitely reply with a big slap - you don't understand what I beat. However, in the face of Han Changling, he could only snort coldly.
Han Changling didn't explain, he just looked at the ruins in front of him. In fact, Han Changling only understood after Xiao Hao's explanation: If you can consume millions of Qi Luck coins to awaken people's hearts, then it is more important than anything else. Wealth is something outside the body after all, it will always "rain and wind blow", but wisdom is different, this is a kind of "wealth" that can be shared, but can continue to grow, on the other hand, open the shackles of the soul, will lay a more long-term future for Xuguo.
This time, the chaos in the trading center was indeed a bit dangerous, even Han Changling understood that he almost capsized in the gutter, but after the crisis, Xiao Hao also achieved all his goals. It's a great harvest!
This will be the season of a great harvest in Xuguo! In the future, Xuguo will go further and deeper. Nowadays, both the Han Sectarian and the Mo family have put a lot of energy on Xuguo, which almost represents the future development direction of the Han Patriarchal Legalist and the Mo family.
Standing in the ruins, Han Changling and Zhang He also started the rescue, and with the participation of these two Danxin masters, the rescue activities were much faster.
Suddenly, at this time, a loud voice sounded, "Hello friends. I'm Xiao Hao. First of all, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of the entire trading center and Xuguo for this incident. We expected someone to make trouble, but we didn't expect that there would be 18 masters of the Sun and Moon Together. The strength we are prepared for is not sufficient.
But on the other hand, since it has already happened, we do not shirk our responsibility. Please take stock of your losses and go to the central square of the trading center after dawn, where Asahi will compensate you according to the highest value. And the people who died. Regardless of men and women, young and old, high or low, Xuguo will give a fortune coin or a thousand taels of gold as compensation.
If you are seriously injured, go to the central plaza immediately, and we will take care of the treatment. As long as you're alive, no matter what state you're in now. We can all heal. If you can't move, ask someone around you to help. For each person saved, we paid two Qi Luck coins or two thousand taels of gold.
Prepare yourself, and don't lie, we have the sun and the moon shining here.
Also, you have calculated in advance whether you need luck coins or gold. Luck coins are precious, but they represent danger. If your self-protection ability is insufficient, it is recommended that you choose 1000 taels of gold!
Don't worry, there is no time limit for this rescue. Right now. The soldiers of Asahi are patrolling here, and those who need it immediately call for help without paying any price. ”
Subsequently, in order to express it more clearly, Xiao Hao spoke several times in a row, which immediately made the entire trading center lively!
Everyone also stopped rescuing those materials that could not be rescued, and some seriously ill people who had not yet been rescued began to ask for help from the people around them, or the soldiers patrolling Xuguo for help.
What Xiao Hao did is destined to have far-reaching consequences, and this is the first time someone has said that you are doing business on my turf. The loss is paid by me, and it is paid according to the maximum amount. Even if it is the problem of commercial dishonesty caused by this. Xuguo is fully undertaken.
Countless desperate businessmen burst into tears, and when they despised merchants everywhere else, Xuguo here has achieved commitment and respect. Although the trading center suffered some damage this time, it ...... But it just happened to let Xiao Hao start his political activities.
Although this slightly exploits people's suffering, Xiao Hao's ability to do so is still popular. Virtually. Xiao Hao turned a bad thing into a good thing.
When the merchants and others came to the central square, everyone was stunned, although they believed what Xiao Hao said, but seeing it was another matter. The Mo family and the Han Zongfa family each had a master of the same sun and moon who was helping, and there were many Danxin masters and small masters of Purple Qi Dongsheng who were helping, and there were also people in the Purple Moon Pavilion who were helping. Shushan also helped rescue under the leadership of Qingyue.
In the most central place, these two treasure mountains are piled up indiscriminately - one is a bronze fortune coin with a height of seven feet, and the other is a real gold mountain, a golden mountain with a height of one zhang and a radius of seven feet, all of which are glittering gold ingots!
The little masters of the Mo family and the Han Sect family helped happily, interspersed among the people who asked for help. Yes, it is jubilant, because Xiao Hao used Qi Luck Coin to exchange a large amount of gold from these two masters, mainly Purple Qi Dongsheng, so that these guys don't know what it looks like to be happy. You must know that the preciousness of gold is only for ordinary people, but in fact, for the masters after the Purple Qi rises eastward, gold is just a bulky metal.
In the process of exchanging, Xiao Hao exchanged 1,000 taels of gold for a Qi Luck Coin to trade. You must know that in the black market, the price of a gas coin is basically 1,500 taels of gold, and 2,000 taels of gold may not be high. So, these cheap guys are the most active right now.
But in addition to profits, what makes these people more active is to participate in rescue activities. In fact, when we can, helping those who have a clear conscience is really a kind of spiritual harvest and enjoyment.
Precious health talismans smashed down one by one, these low-level health talismans that had been sold for 10 qi luck coins were like leaves, and they were used without cherishing them, bringing a little miracle every time, and these low-level health talismans were enough to restore ordinary people's crippled bodies. Also, countless people lined up next to them to receive luck coins or gold. Everyone calculates that if they have enough ability, they will go and receive Qi Luck Coins, and if they have insufficient ability, or if they lose less than 1,000 taels of gold, they will receive gold. The same is true for compensation for the dead and wounded, and for salvage.
"Wow......" Several businessmen were already rolling on the ground crying, originally thinking that this life was over, but they didn't expect that the peak would turn around! Xiao Hao's compensation here was really compensated according to the highest standard -- if he was doing business normally, then the freight, relationship fees, peer competition, and so on would be enough to cause a serious impact; but here, Xiao Hao was completely compensated according to the highest price.
Xiao Yuantang led his own Ministry of Commerce to carefully check all the information, this time is definitely an opportunity for the Ministry of Commerce of Xuguo to make a big appearance, and even a good opportunity to promote the business atmosphere of Xuguo; of course Xiao Hao will not give up this opportunity.
But this time, after all, it is the sun and the moon and the Hui masters, and all kinds of compensation are really a lot; A Danxin master shook his pocket, took out a delicate jade pendant, and with a bang, it was another golden mountain. Suddenly made countless people dizzy.
At this time, the propaganda team organized by Xiao Hao began to play a role, and the propaganda department specially formed for this time was attached to the prime minister and became a very important part of Haizhou's politics.
These propaganda personnel, who are active among the people, stuff folded papers that simply describe the bright future of Xuguo into everyone's hands. If only there was a chance. This is the newspaper and the propaganda team, don't look at this thing is very simple, but it is really effective, especially with the current rescue operation, which adds credibility.
For a while, some businessmen from other places were asking if they could settle in Xuguo. At this time, Dongsheng Shenzhou was like the Warring States period in another world, although everyone had differences in countries, ordinary people could basically move around freely, and everyone did not have a strong concept of the country. But Xiao Hao artificially set some conditions - if you don't set conditions to make things seem too simple, everyone won't cherish them.
There are even some business families who are preparing to move to Xuguo, and are asking about the relevant officials of Xuguo, various rules and regulations, and so on.
Of course, in the process of this propaganda. It is also inevitable to carry guns and sticks - such as mapping the miscellaneous family and the Li patriarchal family, beautifying the Han patriarchal family and the Mo family, and by the way to describe the beautiful future of the Xuguo; and finally a sentence - come on, let's create the future together, in the Xuguo, your efforts will not become a shadow, and there will be no more stupid aristocratic ruling class in the Xuguo.
Not to mention, this kind of propaganda is really effective, especially the businessmen who come here, basically all of them are big businessmen. The influence of these big merchants often exceeded that of the royal family - even in this feudal environment, but because of the wars of various countries. There are still a large number of multinational merchants in Dongsheng Shenzhou, who use various gaps between various nobles and royal families to obtain the soil for survival. It's just that this kind of survival is very tiring and dangerous, not to mention that if one is not careful, he may be killed, and he is often exploited by various nobles! If you want to say that class has the most complaints about the aristocracy, the merchant class is definitely the representative of it.
When Xuguo showed a little bit of an ideal world here, the merchants were moved! Xuguo is not just talking here, but has been doing this from the beginning to the present, and now he is taking out precious luck coins and millions of taels of gold to verify his promise.
"Hello, if you really want to know about Asahikook, you also want to join Asahikook. So can you wait a minute? We're going to rescue these wounded people first. When the rescue is over, we are ready to be here and answer all the questions. In front of the whole world. "Some of the elite soldiers of Xuguo who have undergone simple training are responsible for guidance and propaganda on the side, these people who have awakened a little supernatural power have also opened their minds and learned things quickly, and there may be a chance for purple qi to rise eastward in the future.
It's just that I don't know if in the Asahi Country, where even the luck has changed, will the purple qi rise or the rising sun in the future.
The entire rescue operation lasted for two days, and Xiao Hao paid a total of more than 500,000 Qi Yun coins, of which at least 300,000 Qi Yun coins were used to compensate for the interests of various goods and merchants. The total expenditure is as high as 500,000 Qi Yun coins, which is more than everyone imagined!
You must know that even the Han Zongfa family's annual liquidity is only one million Qi Fortune Coins, and Xiao Hao used up 500,000 yuan in just two days! That is, Xiao Hao has strong reserves, otherwise he will definitely be dragged down.
But in the same way, when the figure of 500,000 gas luck coins was revealed, Xiao Hao and Xu Guo's reputation suddenly reached its peak. In the eyes of the merchants, the disaster here was not deliberately caused by Xiao Hao and Xu Guo, but by the miscellaneous family, Li Zongfa's family, some lone rangers and conspirators (well, this is the result of Xiao Hao's propaganda, and the fact that Xiao Hao indulged in crime is well hidden in the propaganda);
When they first touched the luck coin, many merchants cried. And some foreigners didn't even dare to believe it when they got the Qi Luck Coin - you know, in the past, the Terrans strictly forbade the outflow of Qi Luck Coins, and even a little outflow was not something that these bitter low-level foreigners could get.
Although this was a disaster, under Xiao Hao's planning, it became a platform for Xuguo's propaganda, and bad things became good things in a blink of an eye. It has become the most important branch of Xuguo to officially appear on the stage of Dongsheng Shenzhou.
On the third day, Xiao Hao convened a congress of all merchants, and almost all the people came here at this moment, and there were as many as 150,000 people gathered in the vast square, including the human race, the barbarian race, the demon race, the sea tribe, and so on. Quietly waiting for Xiao Hao's speech.
When the young Xiao Hao stood at the top, it still caused countless exclamations, he was too young! The most important thing is that Xiao Hao is indeed extraordinary, in this more than two consecutive years of experience, Xiao Hao has grown from an ordinary person to a high-level master of the Purple Qi East, this is the elite of the human race.
Then there were countless cheers, and after the crazy rescue and compensation in the first two days, Xiao Hao had won the respect of almost everyone.
"Hello everyone. I am Xiao Hao. I'm sure many people have heard of me. But we don't have many opportunities to meet face-to-face. Today, I would also like to take this opportunity to talk about the general direction of development of Asahi in the future.
First of all, for the development of Xuguo, I advocate a spirit of contract.
In the past, we used to say that the whole world is not the king's land, and I want to say, this is!"
There was silence! No one expected that Xiao Hao would suddenly spit out swear words, but then some businessmen burst into laughter. And applaud Xiao Hao's words!
"Okay, be quiet, be quiet. I think. Wealth belongs to the people of the world, and there is a clear law in Xuguo that legal private property is sacred and inviolable.
In Xuguo, you don't have to worry about someone suddenly infringing on your interests with an inexplicable excuse, absolutely nothing. If any official dares to do this. You can resist, or you can file a lawsuit. In Xuguo, any tax and any action of the government are open and verifiable. Here, we perfectly blend the ideas of Han Patriarch and Mohist. Han Zong's Legalists pay attention to governing the country according to law. The Mohists pay attention to both love and love, which everyone knows.
And what we have to do is to let the law have love. In the past, the law was an instrument of the complete ruling class, and they did not have any provisions guaranteeing the rights of the people. Nowadays, everyone can see the laws of Xuguo! We have carved out all the legal stripes and placed them at the gates and traffic arteries of every county seat.
The kind of saying that any prince violates the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime, I clearly say here that Xuguo will not engage in any false name, and what we want to practice is a spirit of contract.
The spirit of the contract can be understood in this way.
Merchants have the right to trade freely, but you have the responsibility to abide by morality and the law, and you have the obligation to pay taxes. As a nation, we guarantee your safety and interests, even your dignity, and that you will not be treated unjustly after collecting taxes.
As a civilian, you need to farm with peace of mind, pay taxes, and serve in the military, and as a country, you must ensure the stability and happiness of the common people.
As soldiers, we need to defend our country, and as a country, we must ensure that our soldiers have no worries.
In addition, in the country, school-age children have the obligation and right to education, and the state needs to ensure that every school-age child receives an education. Both boys and girls have the right to education.
A country is not a qualified country if it cannot make its people happy, and if it does not guarantee that its people receive the right education, it is a country without a future, and if it does not guarantee the rights of soldiers, merchants, peasants, workers, etc., it is not a healthy country.
Ladies and gentlemen, the development of Xuguo requires everyone's joint efforts, and we welcome people with lofty ideals to join.
Today's development of Xuguo is obvious to all. Trade was free, a large number of school-age children were educated, and the commoners had their own land, free from the oppression of the degenerate aristocracy and gentry. We destroyed the city walls, opened up the rivers, and built the road that ran through the whole of Asahi for the sake of the present and the future. ”
Xiao Hao shamelessly moved the inaugural speech over, which immediately made the whole square lively.
A conspiracy brought by the miscellaneous family and the Li Zongfa family was cleverly used by Xiao Hao to completely establish the glorious future of Xuguo. I don't know what the Zali Patriarch who learned the news would think.
Of course, there were many businessmen present, and everyone could also detect the cold murderous intent behind Xiao Hao's passionate speech - be honest, don't blow up the thorns, otherwise we will have to exercise power.
But in any case, Xiao Hao's speeches still brought an unimaginable impact to the world. In fact, if it weren't for the support of the rights of the Han patriarchal family and the Mo family standing behind him. Coupled with this victory, coupled with Mao Yuanhui's sudden epiphany, etc., Xiao Hao really didn't have the courage to put forward such a comprehensive slogan. This is simply a provocation and a declaration of war against the traditional world.
It's just that as a qualified leader, there is a lot of planning behind any action. After Xiao Hao finished his speech here, only Xiao Yuantang was left to discuss with the merchants.
Three days later, at this time, Xiao Hao had already gathered in Xishan Town with Lan Hai and others. The next plan is underway.
"There seems to be something dangerous along the border. Xiao Haiyun reported his situation. The situation of border gates, the situation of the transfer of troops from the surrounding countries, and so on.
After Xiao Hao's speech ended, the countries around Xuguo had the greatest impact! In particular, the Song Kingdom, under the deliberate interference of the Mo family, used supernatural powers to spread the content of Xiao Hao's speech almost immediately, which immediately made the foundation of the Song Kingdom begin to waver; and Chen Guo in the south of Xuguo and Cai Guo in the north also began to panic -- everyone is not a fool, of course they know what Xiao Hao's speeches represent -- even if they can't know all of them, they can still know some of them.
Sheng Cong began to speak at this time: "Many nobles don't want to accept the current life, and they are involved in this civil strife. Local secession has already begun in many places. Some gentry squire bullies and so on. It is also the main force in it. There are also many merchants in the mix, and these merchants basically have aristocratic backgrounds.
However, I suspect that there must be the Za family and the Li Zongfa family working behind the scenes, otherwise there would not be so many people involved in the rebellion. ”
Li Yuxiang spoke at this time, "According to the situation under our control now, we have dug out most of the secrets. Even a few nobles who seemed to be honest were secretly helping. However, these guys are very cautious, and the way he helps is mainly in intelligence, wealth, and even providing military advisors, providing weapons, etc.
Presently. These nobles have all been mastered. ”
"So how do we move on now? are we going to focus on the frontier or the interior?" someone began to ask.
"If you go outside, you must first settle inside!" Xiao Hao's face was gloomy, "Now the internal situation is unstable. There are too many moths, and if they suddenly stab us in the back when we are fighting abroad, we are likely to collapse.
For the time being, we mainly focus on defense in external wars, and when necessary, we can even use a large number of Qi Luck Coins to defend, or retreat appropriately, and exchange space for time. Some important levels can be managed in a temporarily closed mode.
But this can't be the case internally. And this time we took the opportunity to let so many people jump out, how can we let them down! So don't miss any of these guys this time, and arrest all of them first, just to use them for sacrifice. ”
The simple words suddenly made the whole conference room gloomy. The last time Xiao Hao made a large-scale sacrifice. More than 140,000 prisoners were killed! And this time...... Well, it is estimated that there will be more! Because everyone knows that there are several large and small rivers and some lakes in the territory of Xuguo, and so on, all of which need to be "cleaned"! Of course, it is okay to use other methods, but it will take a long time and consume a lot of money; since there are prisoners, why not "kill two birds with one stone"?
At this time, Xiao Hao turned his head: "Mo Xinfang, you are the main person in charge of internal governance." How long will it take for you to give me a certain number to quell the civil strife and arrest all these people?"
This is a formal political forum, there is no personal relationship, and the Mexican side has to be really serious. Therefore, Mo Xinfang thought for a moment before replying: "One month! Ensure that all personnel are not missed, even those who send letters, even those family members, etc., are all arrested." ”
"Very good!" Xiao Hao nodded, his face suddenly showing a hint of ruthlessness, "People always have luck in their hearts. We have already made an embroidered cloth in the trading center, so let's make another bloody cloth now! According to the laws of the country, the rebellious Zhu three clans. Although it was more ruthless, this time I had to remove all the nails inside, even for babies and toddlers.
Of course, babies and toddlers are the real innocents......" (to be continued......
