Chapter 652: Stepping into the Holy Land of the West
Lu Yi didn't care about this matter anymore, flew straight into the air, and shouted to the demonstrators outside the Great Marshal's Mansion: "This king is Lu Yi, the head of Xiling Kingdom, but Kun and his henchmen have obeyed the law, and their crimes will be completely liquidated! This king guarantees that from now on, there will be no more excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes in Xiling Kingdom, and everyone will live and work in peace and contentment." Please disperse peacefully!"
Where have the people seen people who can fly, they all believe that Lu Yi is a divine envoy sent by heaven to save them, so they all kneel down and worship, and they all salute...... "Long live the king!"
......
The money of the Kekun forces is innumerable, and it took dozens of people nearly half a month to count it.
Lu Yi looked at the huge amount of wealth in the treasury, and couldn't help but secretly speak, and said excitedly in his heart: Xiling is just a small city-state with a population of more than three million, with this money, there is no problem with any welfare!
Therefore, Lu Yi used the money to build public hospitals, schools, and martial arts schools across the country, implement free medical care for all, and children receive free nine-year compulsory education, both civil and military. Under the advocacy of the government, Xiling Country has gradually formed the concept of equality between men and women, and even equality for everyone. The government has streamlined its administration and vigorously supported the development of agriculture, industry and commerce, with low taxes but high welfare, greatly improved people's livelihood, and a thriving social economy.
Lu Yi was determined to reform the governance system, so he selected a group of civil officials and military generals with both ability and political integrity, and set up governance committees at all levels to implement consultation and joint decision-making among civil and military officials.
Although the major town governments have retained the chief executive, the real power has been split up by the policy council, which has formed the effect of mutual supervision, which not only avoids the monopoly of one person, but also does not lose the efficiency of governance.
Lu Yi thought that after leaving, Xiling City would always have to have a principal to do it, so he examined several candidates and finally chose Liang Bin. This Liang Bin is indeed a handsome talent, and he is loyal and brave, never reluctant to do things, and he has a clear banner against Kekun in the early days, and after trying to raise troops failed, he was forced to take a group of followers to hide in the Broken Mountain Range for temporary refuge. He never gave up the forces to overthrow Kekun, and after receiving the news of the protests and riots of the people in Xiling City, he was afraid that there would be a large number of casualties under the suppression of the officers and soldiers, so he led his troops to kill him regardless of life and death.
Such loyal and brave people are naturally the best candidates for leadership in Lu Yi's mind.
Naturally, Liang Bin was appointed as the generalissimo by Lu Yi, and together with the Central Administration Committee, he formed the Xiling Domestic Cabinet, which was fully responsible for the operation of the entire country.
Liang Bin and the ministers insisted on building a palace for Lu Yi, and Lu Yi didn't object after thinking about it, and immediately took out all the imperial silver number cards that he had "robbed" in Yangxingguo. There is a lot of money on the card, and it is no problem to build a palace that is not too luxurious, but Lu Yi still said solemnly: "The money in the card is the total budget for building the palace, and it must not be overspent, you can do it!"
Even the money for the construction of the palace did not cost the state a penny, which made everyone's admiration for Lu Yi brush up to a new height, and they were all extremely admired.
Lu Yi saw that everything was on the right track and there was nothing to do with him, so he summoned the cabinet members to explain, and then drifted away.
The people of Xiling Country have finally lived a good life, and they all sincerely love their respected king, and feel that they are really happy to be a Xiling countryman.
......
Lu Yi's deeds soon spread to the central countries of the continent, and not long after, to the eastern countries...... Since then, in the central and eastern parts of the God's Forsaken Continent, Lu Yi's prestige is known to almost all women and children, and people believe that he is a divine envoy sent by God to bless the world.
......
The second Dividing Mountain Range stretches from north to south, tens of thousands of miles wide, separating the central part of the Divine Forsaken Continent from the Western Holy Land.
It took Lu Yi a day and a night to finally fly to the Western Holy Land in a cloud boat.
The Holy Land of the West has no governing power and little communication with the outside world, so people in other regions lack a basic understanding of it, and it can be said that it is just a legend.
Lu Yi is naturally blind to the situation here, and he can only see step by step.
After putting away the cloud boat, Lu Yi finally stepped on the land of the Western Holy Land, and suddenly felt the slight change in the aura of heaven and earth...... It is indeed more suitable for cultivation than the middle of the continent, but it is not as big as expected.
After walking for a while, a small town appeared in front of me.
It's a lively town, and the streets are bustling with people. People wore ancient costumes with wide robes and large sleeves, and spoke a different dialect.
Lu Yi used the cosmic civilization translator to interpret it, and soon mastered this dialect. This dialect actually comes from the same origin as Yangxing Chinese, but strangely, it is closer to Dongsheng Chinese, but the accent is different.
The race here is also similar to the situation on the side of Yangxingguo, mixed with all kinds of mixed races, and it is not clear which ones are the local aborigines.
The town has a three-storey building that stands out from the low-rise bungalows around it.
The door of the building reads "Red Makeup Chamber of Commerce", and Lu Yi walked in curiously.
It looks like a department store, with counters in the middle and goods placed on shelves on a wide variety of items.
There is only one saleswoman at each counter, but there are a lot of customers, and it is a little too busy.
Lu Yi wanted to find someone to ask, but he had to give up when he saw this situation.
After walking around the ground floor for a while, Lu Yi saw a staircase and subconsciously walked up.
But as soon as he walked up a few steps, he was stopped by a female voice, "Sir, the second floor is not a shopping mall, there is nothing to sell." ”
Lu Yi stopped, turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a woman in a red dress and a red dress.
The woman is in her early twenties, with long black and silky shawl hair, gray-brown eyes, long eyelashes, a delicate melon seed face, white skin like frost, a tall nose, pink red lips, plus a long pink neck, tall and concave figure...... An impeccable beauty!
"Oh, I'm sorry. Lu Yi smiled and said, "I just wanted to find a place to have a meal and rest, and I thought there was a restaurant upstairs." ”
"I'm sorry, we don't operate restaurants here, if you are looking for food, there is a local restaurant on the left corner when you go out, it is very local flavor, you might as well try it." The woman smiled professionally and spoke in an elegant tone.
"Okay, thanks. ”
Lu Yi walked down the stairs and when he passed by the woman, he sensed that her aura was a little disordered, so he inadvertently scanned it with his soul......
The woman actually has the cultivation of the early stage of the Soul Realm, and she can be said to be extremely talented, but it seems that something has gone wrong.
Lu Yi really couldn't help it, and said with a lot of mouth: "Miss, the exercises you are practicing now are not suitable for your physique, if you continue to practice, I am afraid that it will cause serious consequences, I strongly recommend that you choose the exercises again." ”
After that, Lu Yi walked out of the building by himself, turned left and walked dozens of meters, and found the local restaurant introduced by the woman.
When he entered the local restaurant, he smelled a strong aroma of barbecue, which made Lu Yi have a great appetite.
A guy greeted him and greeted him warmly: "Guest officers, we have a first-class box!"
Lu Yi saw that there were few customers in the store, and the environment was quite quiet, so he responded: "I'm alone, just sit in the lobby and eat." ”
"Okay!" the guy led Lu Yi to a small dining table and sat down, served a hot drink, and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"Serve a few of your best signature dishes, a pot of the best wine. Lu Yi said casually.
"Okay, the guest officer is satisfied!"
The man saw that Lu Yi was a high roller, so he was naturally warm and thoughtful, and quickly brought the wine and food.
The barbecue here is really distinctive, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the meat is fragrant, and it is quite delicious with the local flavor of the spicy sauce. The wine is soaked in elixir, and the aroma is overflowing, making it unforgettable.
Food and wine, Lu Yi ate and drank happily.
was eating happily, but saw the beautiful woman from the red makeup chamber of commerce coming over.
"Excuse me, sir, may I sit here?" the woman asked, still smiling, gracefully.
