In the City Lord's Mansion, Wuxu asked Lin Leopard in detail, only to learn that there was actually a god who secretly ignited it, and he became a monk like this.

Wuxu hesitated, and then asked again, "I don't know where this exercise you learned came from?" Lin Leopard, but he didn't know, he only knew that at that time, Shenqian said that this method can be practiced by ordinary people, regardless of qualifications.

Regardless of qualifications, all can be cultivated? Wuxu was a little unconvinced, but judging by his expression, he was not lying. Wu Xuan secretly looked at his body with his divine sense, in addition to the extremely thin aura, his physical momentum was still the body of a mortal person, but, to Wu Xu's surprise, his Heavenly Spirit Cave actually opened a slight gap, and there was a small golden particle under the Heavenly Spirit Cave, like a seed. And the aura that was wandering in his body at this moment was floating out of this golden particle.

Wu Xuan was secretly surprised in his heart, and Xu Chuanshan hurriedly came. He also glanced at Lin Leopard with his divine sense, and then said with a smile, "Congratulations Lin Daoyou, Lord of the City, now that the monastery has been largely completed, and Lin Daoyou is a monk who has just been promoted from a mortal person, it is better to place Lin Daoyou in the monastery." ”

Oh, it's so fast? Well, it's really the speed of a monk, and in the snap of a finger, the flat ground rises from the tall buildings. Wu Xuan secretly said in his heart, thought about it, and then nodded and said, "Lin Daoyou, from a mortal person, without a teacher, to become a monk, you can go to the monk's academy first, and you should also have cultivation resources." ”

Lin Bao was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Wuxu and Xu Chuanshan.

As a result, Lin Bao became the first academician of the monastery.

Wu Xusui and Xu Chuanshan, with Lin Leopard, and Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Cuilu and others, went to the monastery together.

When I arrived at the land boundary, I saw a large building, centered on Niutou Mountain. Fangyuan covers an area of more than 1,000 acres. The halls, pavilions, pavilions, and even flower beds and pools are integrated into the original flowers and trees, and are faintly visible in the prohibition.

This prohibition, called the Northern Xuan Golden Bull Array, is arranged with 36 spiritual weapons, the upper should be the Taurus Star, the lower should be the Niutou Mountain, the stars gather qi, and the mountains hide the potential. Usually, cover the courtyard, illusion the starry sky, gather aura, if there is a foreign enemy to break through, it can even attract the murderous power of the Taurus star to kill it.

Xu Chuanshan led Wuxu and others to the top of Niutou Mountain. This is the center of the monastery and the hub of the Northern Golden Bull Formation. Around the top of the mountain, there are two towering peaks, which are the horns of the ox, but they are usually hidden in the forbidden and difficult to see with the naked eye. In the middle of the mountaintop, there is the core area of the monastery, where there is a large hall for deliberations, and the left and right side halls are the places for issuing tasks and distributing spiritual resources. The main hall and the left and right side halls are surrounded by many outbuildings.

Everyone entered the main hall, Xu Chuanshan opened a prohibition, and the entire monastery was immediately presented in front of everyone, and even the back mountain was also vivid. According to Xu Chuanshan's design, the six major sects, the monk annex of the three sects of Confucianism and Taoism, are on the left side of the front mountain below the main hall, and the monk annex of the three sects of demons and demons is on the corresponding right side. As for the Presbyterian Church and the Overseer House in the back, they are in the back mountain.

"Lord of the City, let's see" Xu Chuanshan, stretched out his finger, and looked at the picture in the air. I saw that the picture quickly zoomed in, focusing on a separate courtyard, "This is the other courtyard of Confucian monks, and from the perspective of his subordinates, Lin Daoyou is a Confucian monk and can live here." ”

Suddenly, Zhang Cui asked, "Dare to ask Senior Brother, but I don't know where I will stay in the future?"

Goku smiled and was about to answer. Xu Chuanshan looked into the air a little more, the picture flowed, and the scene of the back mountain immediately appeared, "You are the city lord's family, you can live in the city lord's mansion, or you can live in this back mountain." ”

Everyone followed his words and looked carefully at the picture, although the scenery of the back mountain was good, it seemed to be slightly barren, and only a few foundations were laid.

"Right Counselor, the back mountain will be the residence of the elders of the Monks and Presbyterian Council in the future, as well as some other important secrets, which must be carefully considered. Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly.

Xu Chuanshan smiled bitterly, "Zhu Jianjun, but I am wrong to wait." The back mountain is an extremely important place, and we naturally know that one is that spiritual resources are in short supply now, and the other is that many places in the back mountain are the residences of true spiritual monks. Although the true spiritual monks often have no fixed residence, they have their own requirements for each place where they settle down, and they often arrange the land by themselves. So I waited to think about it, and then I would make plans after the owner was determined in the back and all over the mountain. “

There is some truth in what Xu Chuanshan said. Zhu Yuanzhang did not nod secretly. Because I am afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang, he also likes to design a residence with his own hands and arrange prohibitions according to his own exercises and temperament, and he is not willing to live in a place that has been made by outsiders, so that it is comfortable, safe and private.

Xu Chuanshan, what he said makes sense. But Wuxu couldn't help but have a headache again. Although he had already said to Xu Chuanshan, everything was simple, and there were some things that the people who came in arranged according to their own wishes. But when the scene looks like this, it looks like a rough room. It's like having a New Year's dinner, saying that everything is simple, but there are not a few decent dishes on the table, and it is inevitable to mumble to yourself in the bottom of your heart.

Spiritual resources, spiritual resources, where to get such a large amount of spiritual resources? Just now, while looking at it, Wuxu also secretly estimated it. If you really want to build this monastery in a decent way, I'm afraid it won't be enough to spend all the money that I and Zhu Yuanzhang got from the Duobao Pavilion in the casino.

"But I don't know, what happened to the trade that Fairy Yu and the five great families discussed?" Wu Xuan suddenly asked Xu Chuanshan.

Xu Chuanshan thought for a while and replied, "It seems that there are some eyebrows, but 。。。。。。。 He stopped talking.

"But what? Xu Daoyou, don't have any scruples. Wuxu said immediately.

After listening to Xu Chuanshan's explanation, Wuxu was suddenly disappointed, "I see!" After a while, he couldn't help but ask angrily, "How can this be true!"

Last time, Xu Chuanshan told Wuxu that a large amount of spiritual resources were required to build a monastery, and after the city lord's mansion couldn't get it, Wuxu put his idea on the border customs and trade. This point, Wuxu also vaguely revealed to Xu Chuanshan.

But since that conversation, Wuxu has not moved, and Xu Chuanshan also vaguely guessed that Wuxu did not know much about border trade. This time, Wuxu sat on the main hall and asked, Xu Chuanshan naturally wanted to take the opportunity to wake up.

It turned out that the border trade between Yongzhou City and the Demon Domain was not at all what Wuxu imagined before. According to the experience of Wuxu's previous life, this import and export trade, in and out, every batch of goods can be taxed, plus other driving effects, can create a lot of financial revenue. In this case, the City Lord's Mansion has the spiritual resources to do things. This is also why Wuxu strongly supports this border trade. But on this Xuanyin Star, the matter of border trade is not the same thing at all.

The Xuanyin Star is the star of monks, although there are also ordinary people. This side of the customs trade, mainly spiritual trade, spiritual trade is naturally completed between monks or monk organizations, storage bags and storage rings these are the basic configuration, and the more rare and exotic treasures, the more secret the transaction. These transactions, the vast majority, are not and cannot be regulated, let alone commissioned, except in specific auctions. For example, the Heavenly Remnant Sect left the Qing Pavilion and did business in Yongzhou City all the year round, and how many spiritual assets were brought each time, who they traded with each time, and how much they traded, these city lords' mansions didn't know at all, and it was impossible to know. The Heavenly Remnant Sect left the Love Pavilion, and only needed to pay 1,000 spirit stones to the City Lord's Mansion every year according to the agreement.

As for the taxation of goods in Wuxu's impression, it is some fragmentary transactions of ordinary goods for ordinary people. (If it is a large transaction, there are naturally monks who put it in a storage bag or storage ring and fly around, but there is no way to verify it.) For example, today Zhang San brought dozens of animal skins from the Demon Domain, and tomorrow Li Si will transport a cart of fruits from Yongzhou City。。。。。 It is a serious tax, converted into spiritual assets, and the amount of it is very small in a year. Therefore, this part of the tax on goods is simply exempted.

In short, in a word, the customs clearance trade on the Xuanyin Star is directly taxed, and there is nothing to be fancy. The reason why Yongzhou City thrives by relying on border trade is mainly due to the pull effect of border trade, which gathers popularity and stimulates consumption.

To put it bluntly, the main source of local financial revenue in Yongzhou City actually depends on land rent, and the spiritual capital of every monk's business place in the city is paid. Once a year, it cannot be paid in advance, and the fixed amount is not easy to increase at will.

Is this the characteristic of the Monk's Star? It's just naked large-scale smuggling! There is a mountain of gold in front of you, but you can't see it.

After half a ring, Wuxu Fang came back to his senses, and asked Youyou, "In that case, why do the representatives of the three sects of their Demon Domain still propose to simplify the customs clearance process and procedures in front of the city lord, and what to propose to reduce tariffs?

Xu Chuanshan replied, "Now that Xuanyin Xing, the Great Zhou Dynasty and even the six major sects are all reforming and changing the law, all spiritual resources need to be handed over, so it is necessary to prohibit people from using the border customs to trade and transfer spiritual assets privately. As far as his subordinates know, the three sects of the Demon Domain have been jointly authorized to the Chamber of Commerce composed of Liqing Pavilion, Huixiang Building, and Strange Pavilion, and only they can represent the Demon Domain in Yongzhou City and carry out spiritual related business activities. In my big week, a new Tongyi Institute will be set up, which will be assigned to various places to supervise and handle relevant affairs. At that time, there will be some accounts that can be inquired about at the border customs and trade. ”

He said it a little implicitly, but it was understandable that he was enlightened. Because it is forbidden for someone to use the border to trade and transfer spiritual resources without permission, then in any case, on the bright side, there will be a list of spiritual resources. Therefore, on the same day, Fairy Yu proposed to simplify the customs clearance process and procedures, and proposed to reduce tariffs. Because according to the usual practice, although the taxation of border trade was determined by the Great Zhou court, or by the Tongyi Yuan in the future, Yongzhou City has a great discretion, of course, it depends on the multi-party game. And the reason why those families, as well as some loose cultivators, are all strongly opposed is because after the emergence of the newly formed Tongyi Academy, they are likely to be marginalized, and then they can only rely on some local forces to make profits through various joints. This also involves many of their previous entanglements of interests!

Wuxu instantly figured out this, and then said with a smile to Xu Chuanshan, "Could it be Xu Daoyou, who has already negotiated with them?"

Xu Chuanshan Fu smiled bitterly again, "City Lord, it's serious. ”

Wuxu was in front of everyone, and he didn't ask any more questions. After pondering for a moment, he said to Zhang Cuilu, He Qifeng, and the others, "Yongzhou City is not very peaceful now, so you fellow Daoists should stay here for the time being." Then he looked at Lin Leopard again, "The monastery grass has just begun, Lin Daoyou, one person is here, it is inevitable that there will be some inconvenience, if someone is with him, it will naturally be better." Confucianism and Taoism, the three religions were originally one family, and they can also confirm each other in practice. ”

Lin Leopard thanked him and left with Zhang Cuilu and others.

Above the main hall, there are only three people: Wuxu, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Xu Chuanshan.

Wuxu, exhaled deeply, slowly walked out of the main hall with his sword, looked around, and overlooked all directions.

Yongzhou City, in fact, is not big. There are no more monks and merchants in the city. Located in the northeast, adjacent to the Demon Domain, the cold and snow fly all year round.

Beyond that, it's the Demon Domain. The sky was scarlet, and the flying snowflakes were also stained with a little dark red, one after another, like a fleeting silent killing.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Chuanshan both felt Wuxu's murderous aura.

"These families in the city, there are still some loose cultivators, ignoring the laws of the court, corrupting the law, since the senior brother has succeeded in Qixing, he should be able to exterminate and confiscate everything. Zhu Yuanzhang, standing with his hands tied, said lightly beside Wuxu.

Subsequently, Xu Chuanshan also said, "The Three Sects of the Demon Domain should soon reach an agreement with these families, and even if the city lord is also the garrison general, I am afraid that some things will not be easy to change." ”

Wuxu smiled, "As long as the monastery can be completed, the meat will still rot in the pot." Let them mix first, the most important thing at the moment is the matter of the monastery. Xu Daoyou, could it be that the Monk's Academy, until now, there is only one monk in Lin Bao?"

Xu Chuanshan looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, "The three sects of the Demon Domain, the five great families, and those true spirit level cultivators have never expressed their position. The subordinates and Zhu Jianjun, as well as General Manager Li, have been busy for more than ten days, inside and out, and they have exhausted their tongues, but no one has come. ”

"Are they waiting for everything to be discussed before informing the city lord, and then depending on the city lord's attitude?" asked Wu Xuan Ning.

Xu Chuanshan did not answer, and seemed to acquiesce in Wuxu's guess.

"How can this be reasonable!" Zhu Yuanzhang roared angrily, "Senior brother, give me three days, I will take He Qifeng, Zhang Cuilu and others, kill them without leaving a piece of armor, and clean them up properly!"

Wuxu didn't know if it was okay or not, so he didn't answer. He looked into the distance.

Zhang Cuilu and others are flying around in the back mountains, seemingly familiar with and looking for a good place. The forest leopard, alone, in the courtyard of the Confucian monks, danced the spear again.

Wuxu sighed, shook his head, flew to the sky above Yongzhou City, and looked intently towards the City Lord's Mansion.

In a bush of flowers and plants, the cow er sat cross-legged, full of demonic energy. The flowers and plants withered, but his face turned rosy. Suddenly, he seemed to sense, retracted his breath, and looked up.

Wu Xu, put away his long sword, and flew down in front of him, "Congratulations to Daoyou, you have finally been promoted to a monk." ”

Niu Er, the first time he was disturbed, he almost went mad, then he opened his eyes, and the fierce light flashed, but then he lowered his eyebrows and said softly, "The predecessor is too famous, and the younger generation was just a layman, but by chance, he became a monk and a demon cultivator." Please also have mercy on the seniors, and the adults don't remember the villains. ”

Wu Xu, completely manifested his body, and said with a smile, "Niu Er, your creation, this city lord has been paying attention to it and can see it clearly. What is good and evil? It is nothing more than one thought to become a Buddha and one thought to become a demon. ”

Niu Er, tears suddenly rained down, "Lord City Lord, what you said is extremely true! Xiao Xiao has suffered a lot since he was a child, and now although he is a demon cultivator, he can't help himself, but in fact, what he thinks and thinks is how to serve the court and reimburse the city lord!"

Wuxu was dumbfounded for a while, and said in a deep voice for a moment, "If you have this awareness, the city lord will be relieved." Now, now that you have been promoted to a monk, you can naturally enjoy the treatment of a monk, enter the monastery, and receive a spiritual resource for cultivation every month. ”

Niu Er, turned over and thanked him, "The city lord brings the grace of reconstruction, Niu Er is unforgettable!

Wu Xuan waved his hand, "Don't be like this, this is what you deserve." After a pause, he made up his mind and said, "Of the five great families in the city, which one are you most familiar with?"

That Niu Er, bowed his head and thought about it, before he replied, "Lord Qiqi City, the five major families of Yongzhou, Niu Er is most familiar with the Nayelu family. ”

In the mind of the Yelu family, the face of Yelu Zhaoming, the head of the Yelu family, could not help but appear.

"The monastery was newly established, but the spiritual resources were insufficient, and it was necessary to raise many ways to spend it. Wuxu paused, and the conversation changed, "But the lord of this city heard that these families, through the border pass trade, skillfully robbed and accumulated countless wealth, it is really painful!

That Niu Er, with a blue face, gritted his teeth and said, "Qiqi City Lord, this is indeed the case! Niu Er had heard a lot about working in the Crane Dance Building of Yelu's house before. ”

Wu Xuan turned around, turned his back to Niu Er, and said quietly, "It's a pity that you have just been promoted to a monk. Perhaps you should go to the monastery first. ”

As a result, this Niu Er became the second academician of the seminary.

Niu Er immediately thanked him.

Wu Xuan flicked his hand again and helped him up, "You can be promoted to a monk because of a sword." The lord of this city will give you a sword today!"

After that, he sent out a short sword, which was full of demonic energy, and it was something obtained from the Demon Domain Casino Duobao Pavilion.

Niu Er, holding this short sword in his hand, thanked him again if he had obtained the treasure, and then said, "So that the city lord will know that the Yelu family not only has business dealings with the Demon Domain, but also has a lot to do with the Nether Star Duobao Pavilion secretly. ”

Nether Treasure Chamber?!

Wu was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "How did you know?"

Niu Er chuckled, a little mad, "The people of Duobao Pavilion are all from the Netherworld, and their clothes, speech and demeanor are very different from the people of the Xuanyin Star. The small, in the Crane Dance Building for decades, is to know. ”

Wu Xu, took out a real-level psychic pill, scraped a little powder with a flick of his fingers, and gave it to Niu Er, "This is a high-level elixir powder, if you can cultivate well, you can be promoted." When the time comes, it is not impossible that this pill will be given to you. ”

This Niu Er is just now just promoted to a demon cultivator, and he belongs to the mortal level. The real-level psychic pill, Rao is Wuxu only gave some powder, Niu Er was already a little unbearable, and suddenly, his divine consciousness was a little confused, and he danced with his hands.

His demonic aura soared, like flying into the sky, and he shouted a little frantically, "Yelu Lao'er!
