Chapter 59: A New Beginning
"Still leaving?" Outside Sanyang County, Lu Xuan looked at Xu Yifan, who was carrying a simple bag.
"Hmm." Xu Yifan nodded: "I have said it a long time ago, but now the Jiang family has not done anything, it seems that Zhang Wang's efforts have been exerted over there, and it makes no sense for me to continue to stay here, it's time to say goodbye." ”
"Didn't find anything else?" Lu Xuan asked with a smile.
"Cultivation has become easier, recently I have a feeling that I am about to break through, it is not the same as when I was by the side of Shizun, the luck seems to be clearer, there are no side effects, it seems that the treasure of the Meteorite Valley has really been obtained by you." Xu Yifan nodded.
"Then you still want to go?" Lu Xuan was surprised, he thought that Xu Yifan was high and weak, and now he couldn't feel it.
"My word is not here." Xu Yifan shook his head and said: "The so-called Tao is people's perception of the world, not only human feelings, but also the nature of heaven and earth, the road I have walked, the wind that has passed, and the people I have seen are my Tao, although this luck is beneficial to cultivation, but it does not allow me to see the world better, now that you have no place to use me here, I can leave with peace of mind." ”
Lu Xuan nodded: "Senior brother has said so, I can't force it to stay, but you deserve this position of protector of the law, take it, senior brother will always be my unified person." ”
"Don't say that I seem to be an apostate, I am naturally a convert, if there is anything important, you can contact me at any time, no matter how far away, I will rush back." Xu Yifan was a little amused.
"This is natural, then wait for the next time you come back, you and I will have a good drink." Lu Xuan nodded.
Xu Yifan nodded, and his eyes fell on Huo Zhan, Li Xingzhi, Zhang Yuanrou, Yan Danfeng, and Zhou Fang on the side, these are the only remaining of Zhang Yuqing's official disciples.
"Senior brothers, cherish." Xu Yifan sighed, although he had been prepared, but when he really parted, he would still have a feeling of reluctance in his heart after all.
"Fourth Senior Brother, remember to come back." Zhang Yuanrou said reluctantly.
"Be careful on the road." Yan Danfeng's eyes were as sharp as ever.
"Next time we meet, don't be overtaken by me." Huo Zhan grinned.
"Save some money." Li Xingzhi instructed that he was probably the only one who hoped that Xu Yifan would get out of here quickly, and he had asked for a lot of money these days.
"Fourth Senior Brother, take care." Although Zhou Fang was reluctant, but more than that, he was happy, this flowery prodigal son was finally gone, if the sect leader also left, it would be even more perfect.
Xu Yifan glanced at Zhou Fang speechlessly, summoned the flying sword, and flew up: "Let's go!" ”
As his words fell, the flying sword turned into a long rainbow and headed straight to the east, and disappeared in an instant.
"Sect Master, there is a great drought in Yunzhou this year, although the fields have been divided, but the people's harvest this year is afraid that it will not be enough to survive the winter." As soon as Xu Yifan left, Li Xingzhi grabbed Lu Xuan to discuss the next matter, although the Guiyi Church did not arrange a county order, but there were all the capitals in each county, and in addition, there were missionary disciples of the Guiyi Sect every ten miles.
"Don't we have food in stock?" Zhang Yuanrou has been helping to design various instruments these days, and she is crazy busy, and when she heard the words at this moment, she couldn't help but ask.
"After all, it is limited, and it is easy to raise inertia by directly distributing food." Li Xingzhi shook his head and said: "The people will take it for granted, and it may help the growth of luck in the short term, but in the long run, even if it is not a major drought next year, if there is no food, they will be dissatisfied, and it will be difficult to take back the greed of the people's hearts once it is released." ”
"It's more than that." Yan Danfeng added: "There will be people who fish in troubled waters, and even organize to take more and occupy more, this is difficult to eliminate, I want to guide people to good, not only to have a good heart, but also to have enough means to punish evil, so that people dare not have evil thoughts." ”
During this time, he was in charge of the criminal law, and he acted vigorously and resolutely, whether it was a disciple in the sect or a common person, as long as he violated the canon, he would be severely punished, and the killing aura on his body was even heavier.
"Let's pay for work." Lu Xuan thought for a while and said: "In the past, we encouraged the rich to do this, but this time we have plenty of food in our hands, so let's start, repair the rudder in each department, and use the grain to hire the people to work, whoever has no food, they will come to work for us in exchange for food, and I will ask those rich families to find a way to buy grain back, and the price can be appropriately higher than in previous years." ”
"Isn't that conniving at them?" Zhou Fang was puzzled.
"It's not counting, it's no good, who will do it for you?" Zhang Yuanrou shook her head, she had been following Lu Xuan for so long, and she unconsciously began to think about interests first.
"Zhou Fang, you go and send someone to invite the heads of each family, come to me the day after tomorrow, I have something to discuss with them." Lu Xuan looked at Zhou Fang and said, Shangyang County has such a good geographical location, don't be a pity.
Why do you call other people brothers and sisters, and when you come to me, you call them by their names?
Zhou Fang wanted to ask Lu Xuan, but in the face of Lu Xuan, he always had an indescribable frustration, and finally nodded honestly: "Yes~"
"Let's go, everyone is busy, Senior Brother Nine, I just want to talk about what I told you last time." Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"Sect Master, can you arrange someone for your subordinates the day after tomorrow?" Yan Danfeng looked at Lu Xuan, he had heard Ergou say that Lu Xuan liked to play some exciting games, he felt that the torture hall could be introduced, and he was going to observe it.
"No, don't kill people today." Lu Xuan shook his head, the rich families in Shangyang County are now more obedient than the dogs raised at home, and it is a little inappropriate to take this set out again, so it is better to use it when we develop other places in the future.
Yan Danfeng nodded with some regret, clenched his fists and said goodbye, and turned to leave.
"I'm going to refine weapons for the Kamikaze." Zhang Yuanrou is not interested in this, she is now the master of the Divine Machine Hall, every time she makes something that is beneficial to the people or useful to the army, her luck will increase by one point, her current luck is more than the four major protectors, and refining things can improve her cultivation, if she continues like this, she is expected to break through to the middle stage of Jindan this year, and she has no time to pay attention to Lu Xuan's messy things.
"I'll go to the War Hall." Huo Zhan is also interested in luck now, and he almost spends his days in the battle hall with Yang Ao, Yang Ao trains soldiers, and he selects qualified ones to come out for special guidance.
"The Unification Church is now running more and more smoothly." Li Xingzhi followed Lu Xuan to the Lu Mansion and said with some emotion.
The current Unified Sect has a clear division of labor and is well organized under Lu Xuan's governance, and with the incentive of luck, there is no need for Lu Xuan to deliberately guide them, and all those who are outside will naturally know what to do better for themselves after perceiving the benefits of luck.
"At present, it is still managed in the form of sects, and in terms of the functions of each hall, it is necessary to gradually move closer to the imperial court." Lu Xuan sat down, picked up the teacup offered by the maidservant and said, "Those nine Confucian students, I will arrange for you to do things here in the future." ”
"If the Sect Master is canonized with that seal, I believe they will be willing to take the initiative to serve the Sect Master." Li Xingzhi took a sip of tea and said with a smile.
The benefits of the unity of the mountain and river seal and the god list have gradually been reflected, if the imperial court has this, I believe that as long as the operation is done properly, many problems can be solved.
"The luck of a county, you can't divide it like this, the most important thing now is to cultivate a few five-grade masters, so that we can have the confidence to compete in the world." Lu Xuan shook his head, in terms of the current volume of the Unified Sect, it is enough to set up these positions and add some of them, too much, and the luck of these people will be less.
"Sect Master, this is a plan that his subordinates have come up with these days, the most important thing for the Guiyi Sect at present is to strengthen the luck, and the luck of a county is limited after all, and now the drought in Yunzhou is not a good thing, but it is a rare opportunity for my Guiyi Sect." Li Xingzhi took out a notebook and handed it to Lu Xuandao: "You can use the way that the sect leader took root in the Guiyi Sect at the beginning, and first show favor to the people, and originally wanted to directly distribute food in the next place, but the sect leader proposed a good way today, we can promote the Guiyi Church in the surrounding counties in a similar way." ”
Lu Xuan took the notes and flipped through a few pages.
Li Xingzhi's writing is very comprehensive, including how the disciples preach in the local area, how to attract the people to believe in the Guiyi Church, and let the Guiyi Church take root in the towns and villages first.
This year is a dry year, so there is no need to rush to divide the land, but to let the surrounding people know about similar remarks, and wait until next year's people's hearts are stable, and then slowly spread out.
As for where the land of the Unification Church came from, it was naturally a voluntary donation from the local wealthy family.
In this regard, Lu Xuan must have a way.
Moreover, Lu Xuan's task was also to loot the wealthy households in Yunzhou and provide money to the emperor.
In doing so, you can not only get land, but also complete the transaction with the emperor, and at the same time win the hearts of the people, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone.
As for how the officials of other counties will deal with it, Li Xingzhi also has a detailed plan here.
Kamikado probes the news, figures out the problems of these officials, and helps them solve a thing or two in exchange for their ignorance.
Of course, the target selection should be clear, and the background should not be too deep.
A family like the Cui family of Shangyang County, which is backed by a big family, don't move for the time being, what the Guiyi Church wants to do now is to expand its influence, rather than immediately turning against the big family, so these families with more backgrounds will not provoke if they can not provoke.
Now is their incubation period, and even Li Xingzhi feels that it is best not to even fight the name of Guiyijiao, after all, the world has just experienced a catastrophe of Guiyijiao, and the people's attitude towards Guiyijiao has also fundamentally changed with the war of more than a year.
"It's done well, just do it according to Senior Brother's idea, and I will let Kamikaze Hall and Sandao cooperate with this matter." Lu Xuan closed the book, looked at Li Xingzhi and said with a smile: "This matter is controlled by the senior brother, but which county to choose first, has the senior brother thought about it?" ”
"The poorest one may be tasteless to others, but for my teaching, it is the best choice." Li Xingzhi said with a smile.
"Xiuwu?" Lu Xuan groped his chin.
Xiuwu and Shangyang are separated by a mountain, but it is precisely because of this mountain, rich Shangyang, bitter Xiuwu, businessmen are basically on Yang County, Xiuwu has no resources, there is no convenient transportation, the only thing that can rely on is farming, the rich here are basically big landlords, like Sanyang County, these wealthy businessmen, any one in Xiuwu, that is the existence of the richest man in Xiuwu.
"Okay, senior brother, let's do it, I'll solve the food matter!" Lu Xuan nodded.
Li Xingzhi smiled and nodded, he liked Lu Xuan's point, he was decisive, and his execution was super strong, he was willing to delegate power to himself, and immediately got up and said: "Then the subordinates will go and arrange it!" ”
