Chapter 19: Return to the Overworld
Xiao Yun only felt that after a whirlwind, he had been brought back to the main world by that mysterious Qi Fortune Treasure, and returned to his own room in the Lu Mansion, looking at this extremely familiar environment, Xiao Yun couldn't help but feel emotional, and a sense of intimacy arose, after all, this is the place where he has lived for two years!
After checking the Qi Luck Value accumulated by the mysterious ball in his mind this time, it was already more than six thousand, Xiao Yun was very surprised, he originally thought that it would be good to have two thousand Qi Luck Value, but he didn't expect that there would be so many!
This time he traveled to the world of books and swords, he didn't have too much contact with the Red Flower Club, and he didn't wantonly rebel and kill corrupt officials in the Qing Dynasty! It can be said that he didn't change the plot much, but he got so much luck, how could he not be surprised!
But Xiao Yun didn't want to think about it, although he didn't rebel and didn't help the Red Flower Society overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty, but he kidnapped Fukangan, forced Qianlong to give up attacking the western frontier, and signed a non-aggression pact, he plundered the treasure of King Chuang, and changed the fate of Huo Qingtong, Princess Xiangxiang, Cheng Lingsu, Hu Fei and a series of characters, how can it be said that it has not changed too much!
This time the luck points obtained again and again have been accumulated, this is more than six thousand, he Cui Dong purple-black ball returned to the main world this time and consumed five hundred qi luck points, if you want to Cui Dong again this luck treasure to cross the world, at least another five hundred qi luck points need to be consumed, and if you choose a world you are familiar with, it is no longer the kind of crossing that is randomly selected, and the required luck value is no longer five hundred, but needs to be tripled!
Although more than 6,000 qi luck points feel like a lot, but if he wants to bring someone back, Xiao Yun's current qi luck value is still too bad! He learned from that Qi Luck Treasure that it takes at least 10,000 or more Qi Luck points to bring someone back! And the person he brings must be willing, otherwise it will be impossible to bring people back!
This is a big limit, but Xiao Yun doesn't care, the people who can be worth it for him to spend so much money and want to bring back must be people he is very close to, and he also believes in him very much, and he mainly wants to bring Huo Qingtong to the main world, in this huge super martial world, in this magnificent era, this strange woman's talent can be thoroughly displayed, and she can also become Xiao Yun's real right hand!
Looking at the priceless treasures in the storage ring, Xiao Yun was in a good mood, and he couldn't wait to buy some cultivation resources to improve his strength!
Xiao Yun came outside and casually found a servant to ask about the time, and learned that only three days had passed, but he had been in the Book Sword World for three months!
In this way, it was simply too beneficial for Xiao Yun! He no longer had to worry about staying in the small world for a long time, which would affect some of the layout of the main world and delay some things! Moreover, his cultivation time could be several times more than others, how could this not make him happy!
In a prosperous area of Jinyang City, Taiyuan County, there is a six-storey restaurant called Juxian Building, the business is unusually prosperous, the guests come and go, the bustle is abnormal, and the service in the restaurant is particularly in place, the taste of various dishes is extremely delicious, in just a year or so, the branches of Juxian Lou are spread all over the nine counties and ninety-eight counties of the whole state.
Xiao Yun was dressed in white, and with his delicate and handsome face, he was simply a Confucian boy, walking on the street and making those young girls turn back repeatedly.
Xiao Yun leisurely came to the top floor of Juxian Building, where there were already several shopkeepers waiting there!
"I've seen Childe, this is Juxian Building's income in the past few days!, please take a look!" An old shopkeeper about fifty years old respectfully took out a few account books and handed them to Xiao Yun.
"Don't be in a hurry about this, what happened to what I asked you to do before! But there are results!" Xiao Yun casually took the account book and put it on the table, looked at a few people and asked.
"Childe, we have already investigated and inquired clearly! Among the nine counties in Bingzhou, Shangjun has all been occupied by the Qiang people, and Shuofang County, Wuyuan County and Yanmen County have also been partially occupied by Xianbei, especially Shuofang County has been occupied the most, and no one even dares to hold the position of county guard!" said another shopkeeper respectfully.
"It's so serious!
Xiao Yun was shocked, he thought that now that the Han Dynasty had not been in chaos, the alien races should not dare to offend the frontier, but he didn't expect that these alien races would be rampant to such a point!
"Can't you buy the county orders and county guard functions in these places, and how many taels of silver do you need?" Xiao Yun looked at a few people and asked.
While Juxian Lou is developing rapidly, it is also providing Xiao Yun with information from all over the place, and Xiao Yun ordered Juxian Lou to start collecting detailed information about the state and several counties around the state half a month ago!
"After our collection and investigation during this time, there are vacancies in the county magistrate positions in these three counties, which can be bought with money, and the position of county guard, only Shuofang County still does not exist, and other counties in the prefecture have it, after our actual investigation, Shuofang County has been plagued by Xianbei and Qianghu! Moreover, these alien races often plunder in Shuofang County, and now no one dares to take over the position of county guard in Shuofang County!"
"But there are the current details of Shuofang County, as well as the population and number of troops!" Xiao Yun's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he hurriedly asked.
"Childe, there are still eight counties in Shuofang County that have not been attacked by Xianbei and Qianghu, and the other counties have been occupied by foreign races, and there are currently more than 2.6 million Han people in the entire Shuofang County, and the remaining eight counties have a total of more than 100,000 troops!" A shopkeeper checked the information he had collected and said respectfully to Xiao Yun.
The area of this world is too large, the area of Shuofang County alone is estimated to be as large as the area of modern Qinghai Province, and now the Han population is only more than 2.6 million, which shows how seriously Shuofang County has been plagued by foreign races over the years!
"Okay, it's not bad, if I want to win the position of county guard in Shuofang County, how many silver taels do I need!" Xiao Yun asked anxiously.
"Childe, this may be a bit much, according to our inquiry, the imperial court actually offered a high price of 200,000 taels of gold! Childe doesn't want to buy the position of county guard in Shuofang County, this is a bit of a loss! And it is very unsafe there!" The old shopkeeper in his fifties hurriedly explained.
"Elder Fang, don't worry, I won't mess around! I'll leave first, you're busy!" Xiao Yun got up and shook his hand and left Juxian Tower.
"I think Childe wants to be an official!"
"But it's not, you said that you can't do it well with such a good living, what kind of official do you want to be! And you want to go to such a messy place! Hey!"
Several shopkeepers sighed at each other, expressing their incomprehension, several of them were found by Xiao Yun in the poor people of Bingzhou, Xiao Yun not only helped them deal with some difficulties, but also taught them a lot of things, and arbitrarily assigned to them, for Xiao Yun, a young owner, they didn't want anything to happen to him!
It's a pity that these people don't know that the world is about to be in chaos, and while the Han is not in chaos now, if Xiao Yun doesn't act quickly and is not ready! After the Han is completely chaotic, some things will be different!
If Xiao Yun wants to achieve a career in this super martial arts world, he must have an official position and a good territory now, so that he can recruit some generals and strategists!
Now in the imperial court, relatives and eunuchs alternate dictatorship, relatives are powerful, threatening the imperial power, the emperor in order to let the eunuchs restrain relatives, so that these eunuchs fly high, sell official beards, oppress the good, political corruption, and the people are not happy.
After the Yellow Turban Uprising, the imperial court's voice over the states and counties became weaker and weaker, especially the establishment of the state pastoral system, which made the power of these state governors and scholars more inflated.
As long as Emperor Han Ling Liu Hong has any accident, the world will immediately be in chaos and fall into a situation where the princes are vying for hegemony, Xiao Yun remembered that Emperor Han Ling seemed to have died a few years after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, although this world is a little different from the world he is familiar with, but Xiao Yun believes that Emperor Han Ling's death should be soon!
Moreover, with those treasures of the Chuang Wang, Xiao Yun can now be said to be wealthy, and it is not about the 200,000 taels of gold! He must now seize the time to cultivate his forces, recruit all kinds of talents, and prepare for the coming troubled times.
