PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

Not to mention the cancellation of the century-old tax-free privileges of the Zuzu Pavilion, and then gave a list of taxes that need to be paid in a hundred years, not to mention what is recorded in the tax list, this kind of action alone has made the officials in Yuanzhou unacceptable, Yu Qian, Sun Wuhan and several people showed annoyance on their faces, although they did not dare to resist the Immortal Monarch Order of the Qingyuan Immortal Realm, but it was always okay to express their dissatisfaction.

And Yuan Dian took the jade slip, and his divine sense moved slightly to see the content inside, just a glance, Rao is Yuan Dian is mentally stable or stared straight eyes, with a look of surprise.

The taxes that the Immortal Monarch Hall paid to Yuan Dian, the lord, were extremely simple, that is, weapons, but it was because they were only weapons that Yuan Dian was surprised and annoyed.

The jade slip clearly lists the taxes that Yuan Dian needs to pay, a hundred years, with ten years as a time period, every ten years, Yuan County and Qizu Pavilion need to pay ten pieces of nine quenching psychic immortal weapons, one hundred nine quenching immortal weapons, two thousand eight quenching immortal weapons, five thousand seven quenching immortal weapons, ten thousand six, five and four quenching treasure weapons, and 20,000 spiritual weapons below the third quenching level.

After these clear numbers, the specific grades and quantities of those immortal artifacts are listed in detail, how many pieces of the nine quenching are the best grades, and how many are the eight quenching top grades...... and so on are clearly listed, and at the end of the jade slip, it is clearly stated that the immortal weapons below the rank provided by the Ancestral Pavilion must be refined into swords, guns, armor and other things used by the immortal army.

After reading this list of taxes, Yuan Dian immediately handed it over to Yu Qian, who was beside him, so that several high-level officials of Yuanzhou and Qizu Pavilion also knew about it, and his face was solemn, and he thought about it quickly.

For these taxes required by the Qingyuan Immortal Realm. Yuan Dian is also under pressure, as the owner of Yuanzhou and Qizu Pavilion. Yuan Dian naturally knew his family background and the ability of the Ancestral Pavilion to refine weapons.

Taking out such a number of immortal weapons in ten years was naturally possible with his ability and resources, but it was very difficult. Such a huge amount accounts for almost half of their output in ten years, which is undoubtedly a nerve-wracking for him.

Whether he wanted it or not, since the Immortal Monarch Hall had sent an envoy of this level to his territory to announce such a secret order, and this secret order was jointly issued by the three major Immortal Monarchs and the Immortal Realm Elder Council, then he categorically could not refuse, unless he wanted to fight against the entire Qingyuan Immortal Realm, but what made Yuan Dian dignified was not the taxes themselves.

The Immortal Monarch Hall and the Immortal Realm Elders Council would definitely not add such a heavy tax for no reason, and after making this decision, they would have to let the envoys of such a level announce it, which must have some kind of inside story implied.

As the lord of Xuanhuang. Yuan Dian naturally knew some things that others didn't know, the Qingyuan Immortal Realm began to collect taxes at this time, and only the immortal soldiers were levied on them, obviously preparing for a big war, and who was preparing for a war? Why do you want to prepare for war at this time? Yuan Dian couldn't help but think a lot.

At this time, Yu Qian, Sun Wuhan, Zhao Ben and other core officials of Yuanzhou had already finished checking the contents of the jade slip, and unlike the previous indignant posture, after seeing the content recorded in the jade slip, several people had resentment on their faces. But it was more of a shock, this time, several people remained silent, and finally passed the jade slip back to Yuan Dian's hands.

As a monk in the Qingyuan Immortal Realm. The core officials of Yuanzhou, Yu Qian and the others naturally knew what kind of existence the Immortal Monarch Hall and the Elder Council were? They also knew what the status of these four people was in front of them? Of course, they knew how the contents of the jade slips were excessive to them Yuanzhou and the Qizu Pavilion, but they were sensitive enough. Because the Immortal Monarch Palace moved down the Immortal Monarch's secret order, there is only one purpose for chasing taxes in this way. That's preparing for war, and it's preparing for a big war.

Although they don't know who they are preparing for. They still have much time to prepare, but they are clear that the top leaders of the Qingyuan Immortal Realm have made such a decision, and they can only obey, because the Qingyuan Immortal Realm is the foundation of their existence and their home.

It's just that when they thought of the hundred-year period of this tax and such a heavy burden, several people looked at Yuan Dian, and naturally hoped that the master of Yuanzhou and Qizu Pavilion could discuss it with the envoy of the Immortal Monarch Palace, they could pay the tax, but could they do it less.

Seeing the solemn look on Yuan Dian's face, Sang Qian, who had been silent, said with a bitter expression: "Lord Yuan, the territorial forces of a single Yuan Prefecture do not need to pay such heavy taxes, and there is no need for me and a few others to come forward together, but because Lord Yuan controls the Qizu Pavilion...... Therefore, so please take the responsibility of Lord Yuan. ”

"Lord Yuan, before making this decision, Yuchen Immortal Monarch had personally asked about this matter, and asked the old man to pass on a message to you, this time it was the Immortal Monarch Hall who broke his promise, and also asked Lord Yuan Haihan, in the future, the Immortal Monarch Hall will naturally compensate Lord Yuan. Yu Li Zhenxian also persuaded on the side, and moved out of the name of Yuchen Immortal Jun.

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Dian's face also changed, and he glanced at Yuan Zhenghao instead, and from the eyes of his own ancestors, Yuan Dian also saw a trace of helplessness.

Everything that should have been said has been said, and the eyes of several people are looking at themselves, Yuan Dian naturally knows that they are waiting for their statement, and after thinking slightly, Yuan Dian turned to ask: "Senior Yin, are there any other secret orders in addition to these Immortal Monarch Palaces?"

"Yes. Yin Chuanzhi replied, which made Yu Qian, Sun Wuhan and others feel nervous again.

Anyway, today's wicked people should be decided, and this order is not necessarily a bad thing for Yuan Dian, Yin Chuanzhi then said: "Before coming to the order, the Immortal Monarch Hall and the elders will attach great importance to the three heavy weapons equipped by your Yuanzhou soldiers, and the envoy will give an order, if you can refine the heavy weapons, the Immortal Monarch Palace can buy it, and you will buy as many as you want, the price is set by you, as long as it does not exceed the bearing capacity of the Immortal Monarch Palace, we can accept it." ”

When he first took over Yuanjun, Yuan Dian took out three heavy weapons: the God of War Bow, the Storm Crossbow and the Five Thunder Chariot to equip Yuanzhou's immortal army, and it was precisely because of this equipment that Yuanzhou had an advantage in the expansion of the three dangerous places around, thus seizing a large number of territories quite smoothly.

At the beginning, Yuan Dian was still able to equip the entire Yuanjun Immortal Cultivation Army with heavy weapons, but as Yuanjun became Yuanzhou and the territory expanded, the number of immortal cultivation armies under his control increased exponentially, and those heavy weapons were extremely resource-consuming, so it was impossible for all the troops to prepare heavy weapons.

After discussing and investigating with several generals of the military, it is not necessary for the army to be equipped with heavy weapons, as long as there is an elite immortal soldier to prepare heavy weapons in each station, so Yuan Dian ordered to deliberately reduce the refining and production of heavy weapons, so at present, only one-fifth of the border army in Yuanzhou is equipped with heavy weapons, even so, the consumption of those heavy weapons is also a huge expense for Yuanzhou.

It is precisely because of the existence of those three heavy weapons that the strength of the Yuanzhou Immortal Cultivation Army is far stronger than the soldiers of other surrounding countries, states and counties, plus the army has been fighting with those existences in the Red Sea Demon Abyss, the Ghost Wasteland, and the Bloody Dark Realm, so it has also exercised rich combat experience, and it has even been rumored that it is comparable to the combat power of the army directly under the Immortal Monarch Palace, and it is the strongest army in the Purple Sun Holy Land.

However, Yuan Dian had extremely strict control over the three heavy weapons, and it was strictly forbidden for Yuanzhou, Qizu Pavilion and the military to sell heavy weapons, so over the years, even if there was a small amount of heavy weapons flowing out, it was impossible to equip other armies on a large scale.

One of the reasons why this is the case is that the lethality of those heavy weapons is huge, if the large-scale outflow is obtained by the existence of the three major dangers, then the Yuanzhou immortal army will have no advantage.

The other is that refining those heavy weapons has a great consumption, Yuanzhou can meet its own equipment, but if you want to take out on a large scale, you can't do it, if you open the takeaway, with Yuanzhou's current resource strength, it can't support many buyers, after all, Yuanzhou can't just sell bows and arrows!

In addition, the most important reason is that the Qingyuan Immortal Realm Immortal Monarch Hall has extremely strict restrictions on heavy weapons.

Although some of the elite armies of the Qingyuan Immortal Realm are equipped with many heavy weapons, it is clearly stipulated that all heavy weapons, in addition to self-refining and use, more than 1,000 pieces of circulation in the territorial forces below the Holy Land need to be recorded, in order to avoid being monitored by the Immortal Monarch Palace, Yuan Dian can only take advantage of the situation, and it is precisely because of this order that although Yuanzhou is equipped with many heavy weapons, the Qingyuan Immortal Realm and the Ziyang Holy Land did not come to investigate.

But today, Yin Chuanzhi mentioned these three heavy weapons separately, and promised to buy them at a high level, the meaning of which is self-evident, it is already encouraging Yuanzhou to refine heavy weapons on a large scale.

Refining heavy weapons can be sold to the Qingyuan Immortal Realm, which is a good news for Yuanzhou, after all, Yuanzhou has a complete set of refining workshops and corresponding refiners for refining heavy weapons, as long as there are enough refining resources, you can start refining to bring more resources to Yuanzhou.

However, Yuan Dian turned to ask: "Senior Yin, can we replace taxes with heavy weapons?"

"No, taxes are taxes, and buying heavy weapons are two different things, and presumably Lord Yuan should also know that heavy weapons and immortal soldiers have their own uses, and it is impossible for any army to only have heavy weapons. Regarding Yuan Dian's proposal, Yin Chuanzhi clearly refused.

Instead of dwelling on the issue of heavy weapons, Yuan Dian asked again: "Senior Yin, the junior takes the liberty of asking, do the four leading shops such as Tianbing Fang and Dust Bingxuan have similar tasks as the Ancestral Pavilion of the younger generation?"

"Yes, this envoy can clearly tell Lord Yuan that no matter what background the four leading shopkeepers have, they have all received orders similar to yours, and because their background is far deeper than yours, the corresponding tasks are heavier. Faced with Yuan Dian's inquiry, Yin Chuanzhi gave a clear answer.

After nodding, Yuan Dian immediately stood up and bowed to several envoys, and replied solemnly: "The four envoys can rest assured, I, Yuan Dian, on behalf of Yuanzhou and Qizu Pavilion, promise to accept the secret order of the Immortal Monarch and guarantee the completion of the task." ”
