Chapter 149: Eloquence
Of course, Qianyuan Tianzun also heard the difference in taste, and he immediately stopped Qianzifeng's roar, and thought about Xuansheng's point of view with interest.
At the same time, many representatives of the Immortal Palace showed strong interest, and they asked Xuan Sheng to tell everyone how this sub-feudal system was different from before.
Xuan Sheng smiled slightly and continued: "After decades of fighting in the Immortal Realm, we have gradually understood that the current Immortal Palace is no longer a Immortal Sect. The era when the head of the sect led the disciples to only care about cultivation and carry forward the immortal method of the sect has passed. The battle between the Asgard Palaces is not only the spells of the various Asgard Palaces, but more importantly, the all-round competition of war capabilities! The number of soldiers, the collection of war materials, the transportation capacity, and so on ultimately determine the outcome of a war. Therefore, our previous sect model is not suitable for the needs of the fairy war at all.
Take our Nine Turns Palace as an example. In the past, it was Qianyuan Tianzun who divided the Nine Turns Palace into nine immortal domains, and each Heavenly Monarch completely controlled a fairy domain, as well as all the resources in the immortal domain, including mortals. Then send his own disciples to manage every mortal city. This has caused many problems, such as some immortal domains can raise 200,000 soldiers, while some immortal domains can only raise less than 100,000 soldiers. The money handed over to Asgard, and the refining materials are also very different. We always think that these differences are caused by the fact that each fairy realm resource is different, and the output is high and low, but in fact, it is not. The most critical reason is that each Asgard has its own set of management methods, and how it is managed is very arbitrary. And as the master of the Immortal Palace, he has no idea what the output of each piece of Immortal Domain in his hands is, how much potential he can tap, how many soldiers can he raise, and how much tax he can pay?
The cultivation of each Heavenly Monarch is very different, and his skills are high and low, not to mention that they are not familiar with the territory management that they are not good at? I have traveled all over the continent. The most obvious is the Tianhuan Palace in the Eastern Continent! His national teacher, Jiang Tianfeng, and I have compared in detail the difference between the sect's disciples managing the Immortal Realm and the officials managing the Immortal Realm. The number of soldiers raised alone has tripled as much, and the taxes paid have increased by as much as five times! After adopting the official system, the palace master of Tianhuan Palace already has a clear understanding of the birth and cultivation capacity of each of his immortal domains and each city. When it comes to the critical stage of the war, it is clear where more soldiers can be recruited and how many supplies can be provided. The ability to fight has greatly increased. You just saw that they formed an alliance with the Eight Desolation Palaces to achieve victory, thus ranking the second largest Immortal Palace, but you didn't see that during the entire war, they provided even more soldiers than the Eight Desolation Palaces, and the number of immortal rice and magic weapons supplied was twice as many as the Eight Desolation Palaces. Without their solid material foundation, how could the Eight Desolate Palaces be invincible? Even the Eight Desolate Palaces didn't know that most of the reason for their victory was actually Tianhuan Palace!"
Xuan Sheng talked eloquently, and many of the masters of the Immortal Palace were stunned, they had never known about these news, and they had really gained a lot! This gave them the feeling of being the true Lord of the Immortal Palace, and everything was under control!
The old man Qianyuan continued to ask: "Then how did the officials come into being? What does the sub-feudal system mean?"
Xuan Sheng continued: "Officials can be divided into different levels according to the size of the territory under management. Officials can be selected through many ways, and in the end, they will be ordered by the director of Asgard! The most important thing for the official system to continue is that every official must conduct an annual examination! Officials who meet the requirements can stay or even be promoted. Officials with poor talents are demoted or even replaced. And the division is for the high-ranking disciples of the Immortal Palace. According to their military exploits, they can be awarded different titles and enjoy different treatment. However, they are not directly involved in the administration of the territory. In this way, we can make the best use of talents, make the best use of things, use their strengths, and develop together!"
The old man Qianyuan slapped his thigh, "Xuansheng is really not a thing in the pool! The old man suddenly opened his mouth when he heard it!" Then he pointed to his second-generation disciples and reprimanded: "You all just want to fight for power and profit, and you always think about your own selfish desires! There is a difference of 108,000 miles between you and Xuansheng's knowledge!"
The lord of Asgard through the official system is equivalent to taking the power completely for himself. Of course, they are extremely satisfied! But those many second- and third-generation disciples who are the lords of the territory or the city lords who hold real power one by one are likely to become nothing! If they want to be prosperous and rich, they can only compete for military merits, this dangerous and extremely dangerous title. They suddenly started arguing.
Xuan Sheng smiled slightly: "As I just said, there are many ways to produce officials. If a disciple feels that he is very capable, you can also apply to be an official of a certain level. As long as you pass the corresponding inspection, you can manage this territory as this official, and there is even room for improvement. For example, you used to be just a city lord, that is, an ordinary third-generation disciple, but in fact, your ability can manage a fairy domain, dozens or hundreds of cities, with this system, you can be promoted to manage a fairy domain without having to be a city lord all the time!"
Some people continued to ask: "If you are not the city lord, will your income be much less?"
Xuan Sheng smiled, "Finally someone asked about personal substance. The advantage of adopting the official system and the sub-feudal system is actually aimed at the income! The sub-feudal system has a fixed income for each title, and the same is true of the official system. Unlike before, senior disciples only had a fixed monthly offering. If you want to earn more, you have to complete tasks. But the rewards for completing tasks are arbitrary. One day, a certain city lord did a good job, and the master praised and rewarded a high-level magic weapon in person. But the master's mood is different every time. The result is likely to be that a certain task was completed very ordinary, and the master rewarded a jade pendant worth a lot of money. And another time he made a huge feat, and the master rewarded him with a glass of spirit wine!"
"Then what if a senior disciple doesn't become a city lord and doesn't have any combat exploits?"
Xuan Sheng shook his fan: "If you don't become a city lord, and you don't have any military exploits, your income will drop a lot." However, the title is not only based on military exploits, but also can be obtained in a special way, Tianzun can have special rewards, special contributions, such as a certain disciple refining a new type of elixir, a new type of magic weapon, and so on. The title can be given to anyone, and Tianzun can also love the house and give the title to Wu, etc. ”
Suddenly, the disciple who knew clearly coaxed, "This method is good." For example, if we marry Mei Yu Feifei of Yunhai Jade Palace, and the two families become in-laws, then Mei Yu Fei Fei can also get a title! Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was greatly relaxed.
In fact, many high-ranking disciples really didn't want to be city lords, and they didn't want to participate in the immortal realm battle. They still have a way to go, and everyone is very happy.
But with all these measures, the only people who were dissatisfied were the second-generation disciples of the Immortal Palace, those Heavenly Monarchs who originally held great power. Because according to the previous regulations, they can automatically automate a large piece of the entire Immortal Palace, as well as all the output on the Immortal Domain! Not now, even if the title is at the end, it can only be divided into a territory, and there is only a few cities with less than one percent of the original area of the Immortal Domain. Even so, it is not possible to directly manage this territory, the officials are directly sent by the Asgard Palace, and the officials have the final say in collecting taxes and raising soldiers. And their own income has fallen too much, and the real power they value most is gone. It's just equivalent to a rich prince in the world.
Naturally, they didn't dare to contradict the master, so they aimed all the flames of hatred at Xuan Sheng.
In particular, the five captured Heavenly Monarchs couldn't bear to loudly reprimand Xuan Sheng for being young and talking nonsense. This is far from their expectations. Originally, I thought that even if I couldn't restore my Heavenly Monarch, the power of the Lord of the Immortal Realm would be acceptable to reduce it at most. Now the road is completely broken!
However, Xuansheng's complete set of feudal system and official system completely solved the problem of how to divide the nine immortal domains of the ten heavenly monarchs of the Nine Turns Palace, that is, no one will have an immortal domain in the future, either participate in the selection of officials to manage the immortal domain, or take a title with peace of mind and strive to overwhelm others in terms of military exploits!
Qianyuan was the happiest, Xuan Sheng not only solved the immediate problem, but more importantly, gave the Immortal Palace a long-term development plan! He asked eagerly, "Then when do you think our Nine Turns Palace will implement this set of methods?"
Xuan Sheng shook his head: "It's not right now, first, the details are not perfect, such as how officials are appointed, how they are selected and assessed." Even the most basic officials are divided into several levels, how big the immortal realm is managed by each level, and the division of titles and offerings in the feudal system, etc., all need to be recognized by all the Heavenly Monarchs and senior disciples. ”
"That makes sense!" Old Man Qianyuan swept his eyes over the disciples, "This conference is going to solve this problem. Now it seems that it is just a matter of details. The old man decided to divide the disciples of the Nine Turns Palace into a discussion group, each group was headed by a Heavenly Monarch, and all the disciples of the Nine Turns Palace were evenly divided into each group, breaking the boundaries of the master's apprentice group and discussing all the details equally. Within six months, each group came up with their own opinions. In the end, it was handed over to Xuansheng to sort out a practical plan!"
Xuansheng's series of methods are more thorough than the transformation of Jiang Tianfeng, the national teacher of Tianhuan Palace. Jiang Tianfeng only has an official system and no feudal system, and those second-generation heavenly monarchs are completely deprived of their rights, so Jiang Tianfeng is blamed in every way, and the reform of Tianhuan Palace can't go on, and it begins to gradually cause civil strife. Tianhuan Palace Palace Master Shuwen had to retreat a little, otherwise it would really provoke a mutiny!
After the Tan Shan Fairy of the Ethereal Palace informed Xuan Sheng of Xuan Sheng's reform plan, Chu Gong Miao was very worried that he would follow in the footsteps of Jiang Tianfeng and be hated by the second generation of disciples, those Heavenly Monarchs, and thus suffer accidents. So she has always maintained close contact with Xuan Sheng. Let him not be overly aggressive, but take his time step by step. Pay special attention to your own safety.
But Chu Gongmiao couldn't go to the Nine Turns Palace. She wants to stay to treat Luo Fansha, and she really has her own master, Feng Tong. Master Fengtong's illness is simple, and after Rixuan's conditioning, he is gradually recovering. And Luofansha is much more difficult.
Jade raises people, this is true. Not to mention this kind of jade treasure 10,000-year-old chalcedony! After being placed in an extremely cold environment for a long time and with the assistance of the Spirit Absorbing Array, Luofansha's black spot disease finally took a turn. The body no longer decays, it begins to heal slowly, and the dark spots gradually shrink. He was finally able to cultivate on his own. Now his soul has returned to his reborn body. The bones become crystal clear and the skin is warm and silky. The chalcedony coffin where his body was placed no longer smelled foul, all the stench was gone, and sometimes there was still a trace of aroma coming out.
Chu Gongmiao's long-hanging heart finally let go, and he was finally saved! Although Luo Fansha was still unconscious every day, the vital characteristics of the body were indeed recovering. She began to gradually remove him from the ice cellar where the ice palace was hidden and put him into her dormitory, and began to let him receive some sunlight.
Her main time now is to talk to Xuan Sheng about some topics of change in the fairy world, either to write a book, or to carefully look through Xuan Sheng's reform plan, and sometimes communicate with Xuan Sheng through the magic mirror.
Luo Fansha finally opened his eyes, but he was silent, looking at everything Chu Gongmiao had done.
The plan for the reform is still being refined, and after full discussion, the vast majority of the disciples of the three places gradually changed their views, and they found that in fact, they now have more choices, but in fact, they are the beneficiaries of the change! For example, disciples who don't want to be city lords can concentrate on cultivation to earn titles. If you want to be an official, if you do well, you can be a bigger official, not just limited to one city lord!
Unlike the Nine Turns Palace, other Immortal Palace masters actually participated in the discussion. After all, the actual situation of each immortal palace is different, so they are full of problems! For example, the Beixuan Palace and the Ethereal Palace do not have Tianzun, the sole owner of the Immortal Palace, so how can their changes unfold?
"This is very simple, you will treat your Immortal Domain as an independent Immortal Palace to carry out reforms, the key issue is not the rights of the second generation of Heavenly Monarchs, but the generation of a complete set of their own official system, how to better benefit the development of the Immortal Palace!"
Che Ming Jun didn't have too many opinions, he admired Xuan Sheng's foresight very much, but he spent more time accompanying Mei Yu Feifei and Mei Yushi to visit some palaces and scenery of the Nine Turns Palace, so as to increase mutual understanding with Mei Yu Feifei.
On the surface, it is quite stable for the time being, but secretly the waves are turbulent.
Jian Wanli, who was released from the Eight Desolation Palace, was convincing the two elder brothers to make trouble together and punish Xuan Sheng! His reason was very simple, "Xuan Sheng's approach seems to be for the development of the Immortal Palace, but in fact, it violates the traditional rules and creates contradictions within the Immortal Palace, especially between our second-generation disciples and masters, as well as between us and our own apprentices!" For example, a second-generation disciple has been assessed and can only manage one city, but his disciple instead manages a fairy realm and presses on top of his master's head, which is contrary to ethics and morality, and the elders and young are humble. ”
Qianzifeng was persuading the two brothers of the Bao family, "What do the Four Wounded Heavenly Venerables and Heavenly Ghost Military Divisions of the Eight Desolate Palaces say?"
"It's safest to kill this Xuansheng directly! It's best to let him have an accident!"
