"Li Gongzi, there have been more and more monks passing through our Qinggu Realm recently, when will the city gate tax be opened!" Guo Zui drank a little wine, but looked at Li Shi with a smile and said, "Even if Li Gongzi, you have a lot of money and don't look down on this little tax, but I, a small family, still count on this money to buy wine and drink, in my opinion, it's better to hang up the city gate tax!"

"Go, go, go, your eyes are falling into the eyes of money!" Li Shi waved his hand and said, "If you have this leisure, you might as well go and find out what's going on with the Lu family." Twenty-three large boats, and there are traces of the transformation of the Boundary River Shuttle, it has only been a few years since the merger of the Hundred and One Realms, and even such a large water boat branch has been made, it is obviously not an ordinary character!"

"Don't worry, I'll investigate as soon as they settle down!" Guo Zui took a sip and said, "As far as I know, they are the Lu family, one of the four major families in the East China Sea, Zhang Gu Zhu Lu, the East China Sea is basically famous for its tricks, among which the Lu family is good at the construction of large shuttle ships and organ cities, and the leader of this trip is the eldest son of the Lu family, Lu Tianyou!"

"Sounds like it's very strong?!" Li Shi heard Guo Zui's words, and only felt that Lu Tianyou seemed to be very good.

"The four major families of the East China Sea have joined forces to master the wealth of the seventh layer of the East China Sea and the armed forces of the sixth layer, and at the same time, they are willing to give and give generously, and they are inextricably linked with the scattered cultivation of the East China Sea.

"So, it's a family of the rank of the Lan Lei family!?" Li Shi couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

"It's weaker than the Lan family at its peak, and it's stronger than the current Lan family!" Guo Zui thought for a while, stopped his wine glass and said.

"Damn, such a big dog, what are you waiting for here, hurry up and visit, visit!" Li Shi heard Guo Zui's words, and couldn't help but have his eyes shining, now is the development period of Qinglian, and he can't wait to break off two cents of a penny, in this case, knowing that there is a local tyrant in his territory, whether he knows it or not, go and hug his thighs first!

"Hey......" Seeing Li Shi's excited appearance, Guo Zui smiled slightly bitterly, Li Shi's administrative level made Guo Zui have nothing to say, but this attitude of worshipping money made Guo Zui a little puzzled, after all, he was a monk from Kunlun, why did he value money so much!

At this time, Lu Tianyou took a few domestic servants, walking in this Qinglian Valley, stepping on the solid bluestone road, although the clean and tidy walkway is for mortals, but there is no common filth and smell in the past, looking at the endless stream of pedestrians, Lu Tianyou feels as if he has returned to the Pearl City of the East China Sea, no, even here is more lively and prosperous than the Pearl City of the East China Sea!

"Array pattern ......" Lu Tianyou sighed slightly, this Qingqiu Valley has a completely different feeling from all the mortal cities he has come into contact with in the past, mortals are still those mortals, but along the way, these mortals have unimaginable vitality, is it because the Qinglian Kunlun here has deliberately guided the mortals, or because the mortals here are different.

Lu Tianyou didn't know, but Lu Tianyou, as a monk who often participated in family affairs and was even responsible for the development of trade routes, could see the huge vitality and business opportunities of this vibrant Qinglian Valley, but Lu Tianyou was a little puzzled that he had seen all kinds of farmland reclamation, collection of displaced people, disaster relief and road repair, and even water conservancy project construction.

"Could it be that this Qinglian Kunlun is not a broken household, but a fortune boy with amazing wealth?!" Lu Tianyou guessed.

Li Shiruo knew Lu Tianyou's thoughts, I was afraid that he would die of laughter, in fact, the so-called money is money for people under the rule system, but for people outside the rule system, it is just a number.

And with 40 million labor in their hands, if they pay or something, it is definitely not enough, but let them create value by themselves, then they will find that with their labor, they will create more and more value, far greater than the cost of paying them.

At the beginning, Li Shi paid these mortals food, after all, for the mortals who had just ended the turmoil, there was nothing more secure than the food in hand, plus the work was settled every day, but people also recognized the food as currency. And this payment took about a month or so.

They soon found out that small shops around them had opened to buy daily necessities and food, although these small shops also collected grain, but the food was too heavy, and it was too inconvenient to trade.

At the same time, because the standard of Li Shi's meals for work is only to eat undead people, there is no luxury in the taste or something, at most it is a night of millet porridge to moisten your throat, and compared with those small shops, it is simply not a food for people to eat, especially the big and soft steamed buns in it, for mortals, it is simply the top delicacy, a proper temptation!

As there are fewer and fewer people eating lunch, Li Shi's government directly discussed with the people in these small shops, and the government issues food stamps and instrument stamps, and mortals take food stamps to eat steamed buns, and they can buy daily necessities with utensil stamps, because the quantity is large and preferential, so it is relatively cheap, and the government can be regarded as saving a lot of things.

With the introduction of the food stamp system, Li Shi then got a general equivalent exchange ticket between bills, that is to say, all food stamps, instrument stamps and other things can be exchanged for this special food stamp, and all kinds of tickets are unified, and all the shops under the command of Qinglian, when using this kind of bills for consumption, can be discounted, the entire Qinglian Valley will be completely occupied by this kind of general equivalent, and it is worth mentioning that the shops in the Qingqiu Valley are basically under the command of Qinglian.

Of course, this general equivalent that can already be regarded as paper money can also be imitated, but it is only a matter of cost.

However, the person who imitates it must be a monk, he first needs to refine the paper, and then he needs to imitate Kunlun's seal, and then there is Li Shi's miniature formation graphic range mark on it, and the most important thing is that after he worked hard to study this thing, he found that this paper is only limited to circulation among mortals, and cultivators do not use this paper currency.

Because after Li Shi researched the array crystal, he used the contribution system of the sect to make the transactions within the sect go in the direction of electronic money as much as possible, and also used the general equivalent of paper money, is that worthy of the face of the traverser!

Therefore, Li Shi consciously reduces the unnecessary physical wear and tear of money on actual resources, and tries his best to move money in the direction of virtual numbers, of course, this also needs to match the social level, Li Shi is not too overkill, after all, he is a cultivator and has reached the Jindan period, but his life span is 500 years to live, and the most important thing is time, slowly boil up, and he does not seek more to let the mortal world reach the level of the eighties and nineties It is always possible.

Lu Tianyou looked all the way, traveled all the way, whether it was as a businessman or a son of a Xiuzhen family, he could feel that the entire Qinglian Valley was very worthy of study, especially this feeling of being busy but not chaotic, prosperous and prosperous, Lu Tianyou could feel that in just a few months, the Qinglian branch had taken root in this Qinglian Valley, because the mortals in the entire Qinglian Valley almost recognized the rule of the Qinglian branch, in other words, the people's hearts were in hand!

For monks, the people's heart is actually very empty, at least because of the existence of extraordinary power in this world, there is no saying that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and even the individual power of the Yufu realm often has the possibility of subverting the organization.

But Lu Tianyou also knows that there is such a thing as the people's heart, so it will be much easier to do anything if you want to do it, especially for the sect, having the people's heart is equivalent to one more way out. And in such a short period of time, it was Li Shi who gathered the hearts of the people and mastered them, Lu Tianyou had to sigh, he was really a genius in the world.

And with this exclamation, Lu Tianyou originally thought that the Qinglian branch was at most just a nameless cannon fodder thrown out by Kunlun, used to resist Tianyi and Tianxing, but now looking at the changes in the Qingqiu Valley, Lu Tianyou at this time felt that if this branch had carried this wave of Tianxing and Tianyi, it would really be a pawn crossing the river, and he could run rampant!

Of course, this is only a possibility, in fact, in the eyes of any person of insight in the cultivation realm, the current Baiyi Realm will inevitably have a shocking battle that will finally determine the ownership of the Baiyi Realm, and the winner of this battle will definitely be one of Kunlun and Tianxing.

At the same time, the victorious forces are likely to stand out from the five greats, end the situation of the five parallel human races, and become the new leader of the human monks, because the Hundred One Realm already has the foundation for the cultivation of the Jade Mansion Realm monks, and the existence of the Jade Mansion Realm monks, for the top forces, this is the cornerstone of everything, this is the real cultivation world!

After Tianyi lost the battle of Qinggu and the battle of the Changfeng Realm, although he still has the background of the top faction, his momentum is low and his luck is inevitable, unless Tianyi can make a surprise move, otherwise the competition for this Baiyi Realm will not have Tianyi's share!

"The victor may be Tianxing or Kunlun, but in the end, it is unknown who can achieve the Jade Mansion with the Hundred One Realm, it's a pity that it is such a good place!" Lu Tianyou sighed slightly, only hating that he was not in Tianxing or Tianyi, or that the boundary of the unity of the hundred realms was greater, and it was good to be able to contact the East China Sea, so maybe his family would also have a chance to fight.

Yuanying needs not only personal cultivation to achieve the Jade Mansion, but also the luck of the forces to which it belongs, if there is no force to monopolize a realm, then there will basically be no Jade Mansion realm monks, even if it is a loose cultivation, it must rely on the organization to achieve the Jade Mansion, and it is this special condition that further contributes to the balance of individual force and collective power in this world!

As for Lu Tianyou, if his Lu family can suppress the monks of the Jade Mansion Realm, then the profits brought by him will definitely be huge, and his Lu family will open up trade routes along the Changqing River system this time, not necessarily to find an object worth suppressing.

Now it is popular, Kunlun is the water and the main vein, Tianxing is a three-star general, Tianyi is barely half, as for Qinglian Kunlun, he has never entered the Lu family's field of vision, but now that he has seen the Qinglian Valley with his own eyes, Lu Tianyou feels that the Lu family may not put Li Shi in his eyes, but he can make a bet on Qinglian, at least the cost of betting is very low!

"Lu Tianyou of the Lu family in the East China Sea is fortunate to be here, but I don't know that it is inconvenient for Fang Fang to meet the owner of your land!" Lu Tianyou slowly arrived at the government affairs hall while watching, and the aura on his body was revealed, as a monk in the Jindan period, no one dared to slack off!

The monk at the door didn't say much, the monk of the Jindan period was definitely not something that the little doorman could offend, so without saying a word, he immediately ran into the room, Li Shi and Guo Zui hurriedly came out to greet and welcomed Lu Tianyou in.

"The phoenix does not fall into the land of no treasure, our Qinglian Valley can be fortunate to let Lu Gongzi stay, but it is full of luxury!" Li Shi said politely, and after ordering someone to serve tea to Lu Tianyou, he asked his subordinates to retreat, and said calmly, "This tea is just some ordinary spiritual tea, there is nothing to entertain in the countryside, please don't mind Brother Lu!"

"Where!" Lu Tianyou smiled calmly and said, "If the Qinglian Valley where Li Gongzi is located is a rural place, there will be no prosperous place in the world, I happen to have a lot of questions, I want to ask Li Gongzi, and please don't blame Gongzi for being abrupt!"

"Haha, I just know that you must have a problem!" Li Shi laughed and said, "Please also ask Brother Lu to speak." ”

"With such confidence, Brother Li is really a very human being!" Lu Tianyou sighed when he heard Li Shi's words.

"I can stand the sycophants, and I will listen to the words of the teachings! If Lu Gongzi dares to say it, I will dare to respond!" Li Shi replied with a calm smile, "And since Lu Gongzi, as a descendant of the family, will come to see me, this in itself represents something, doesn't it?!"

Li Shi's arrogance and self-confidence made Lu Tianyou slightly startled, and then smiled, and said, "I think Gongzi misunderstood, I came here because of what I saw and heard, not because of the Lu family's instructions, I just represent myself!"

"Oh?" Li Shi was slightly stunned when he heard Lu Tianyou's words, and then laughed so happily that he laughed, in fact, it was just to hide his embarrassment, but Li Shi immediately raised his thumb to Lu Tianyou and said, "Lu Gongzi's eyes are really like torches, if you want to cooperate with my Qinglian, our Qinglian will provide the most preferential treatment to the collaborators!"

"I originally had this idea, but after seeing you, I had the urge to leave!" Lu Tianyou couldn't help but think of Li Shi's stupid appearance, especially the teeth that seemed to be shining, but he felt embarrassed by a thief, and he wanted to punch him.
