Ancient God Prison - C218
Seeing that everyone was fine, Duan Yun calmed himself down, and then his gaze landed on the words of the imperial edict, and started to read: “Two days ago, I ordered Hu Rui to secretly visit the various places in Sect Master of The Celestial Demon Sect. Cha Li Jiuxiang is a disgrace to the public, and a disgrace to the people. It was especially quiet and elegant, its interior extremely dirty. After hearing the report, Gu Zhen became extremely angry, and the evil wind could not grow any stronger. He ordered General Zuo Ting Zhu to seal up the place and all the other buildings within the Heavenly Demon Sect. And from today onwards, after midnight, a curfew will be imposed within the Heavenly Demon Sect! ”
Reading the few lines of the command, Duan Yun had already understood. The revenge of the Qin Lie brothers had actually come so quickly. And it was a public revenge for a personal grudge, with a high profile. However, he was surprised by the sealing of the Clear Pavilion.
His Highness’s Hu Rui, however, was stupefied. Since when had he followed the orders of the Monarch to observe the lands of the main city? Why didn’t he remember that he didn’t say any vulgar words? Although this quiet and elegant building was a romantic place, the women inside did not sell themselves.
The officials looked at each other and fell silent. Only Hu Ze’s face was unsettled, and he fiercely glared at his own son. They did have clear houses that were unconventional, but they could not understand why Qin Lie was so serious and treated it as the first decree after he ascended the throne.
Everyone was puzzled, but no one could figure out Qin Lie’s intentions, so Lv You stood out and said: “Monarch, that five li of income tax is enough to support the usage of the Heavenly Demon Sect for three months! Moreover, most of those girls did not have much livelihood, so if Monarch thought that they were indecent, they could increase their taxes. “I don’t think there’s a need for this curfew …”
Qin Lie curled his lips, and then picked up three pieces of paper on his table. One of them said ‘It’s too lively at night’, one said ‘Population’ and the other said ‘Zhan Feng’.
After looking at it for a long time, Duan Yun finally understood what it was. With a different look in his eyes, he guessed, “Monarch said that it was too lively at night, and that it was not a good thing for my Heavenly Demon Sect. The curfew allows young people to go home and have children. My Heavenly Demon Sect relies on the high and mighty power of the Children. It’s fine if you don’t want the small money you get from a disgraceful business. It’s better to increase the population and maintain the prosperity of the various races! ”
Everyone immediately understood, so Monarch was not just avenging personal grudges, but instead issuing orders with deep intentions? Did he really go to investigate the people’s affairs last night? The atmosphere in the entire imperial court turned solemn and everyone’s expression changed.
This was especially true for the clan heads. All of their eyes were filled with surprise. Seeing the look in Qin Lie’s eyes, he felt even more admiration. Why didn’t they think of such a simple logic? Is that so? At night, the children in the family would become more and more wild. They had to hurry back and train diligently in martial arts so that they could accompany their wives and give birth to children to strengthen the clan. Curfew was truly a good plan.
Even Lv You flashed several times as he smiled and stooped down: “It is this official’s fault that you were able to see so clearly.”
Duan Yun immediately followed up, opening the second scroll as he read: “Gu Zeng inspected the growth of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Children s, until two years ago, it was already less than half done. Therefore, there was an order, under the control of Heavenly Demon Sect, for all couples who had an extra son, they would be rewarded with one Third Rank Beast Crystal. Those bearing three sons or higher will be supported by Heavenly Demon Sect. ”
The entire palace hall was once again filled with rumbling sounds. Surprise was written all over their faces. Having more children, he actually had money to take. Having a lot of sons can also be raised by Heavenly Demon Sect.
It could be imagined that in these days when Heavenly Demon Sect was flourishing, how could anyone not be happy? Lv You was also startled, if it was really as stated in the decree, then the expenditure would be exorbitant.
This was a good thing for the Heavenly Demon Sect. Even if he had to grit his teeth and tighten his belt, he would forcibly endure it. He kept on bowing and said, “This subject obeying your order! Monarch is brilliant, and even better than Monarch! ” His words no longer contained any traces of coldness or conflict from before. Not a single person in the palace showed any disapproval on their faces.
Just these two decrees were enough to win the hearts of the people. The majesty of the Monarch’s political strategy could be seen from this point.
Duan Yun was also impressed and respected him. Brother Qin Lie was really powerful. He opened the third scroll and said, “Gu Zeng has been studying in the Heavenly Path Academy for close to three years. He was well aware of the sufferings of the Martial Cultivator. As a result, after today, the solo general would open the Book Collection Hall and the books would be divided into five levels. Five copies of all the Children s in the Heavenly Demon Sect clan can be found on the first floor before they reach adulthood. From then on, there will be three to three thousand secret scriptures in the second floor, and they can be exchanged for merit points. ”
Hu Ze’s pupils shrank as he clenched his fist and raised his head to look at Qin Lie once more. The crowd in the great hall was once again in an uproar. Everyone was either shocked, impressed, or uneasy.
Within the East Wasteland World, almost all the forces of all continents have collected quite a few Profound Arts Spirit Arts and manuals on the martial way. However, these resources were kept secret.
In this chaotic world, the strong were respected. Only those with tyrannical strength and larger fists could command others. But if it was those Martial Cultivator s. He could also learn advanced martial arts and have a chance to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.
Then, how could the families of the Cities still have the power to control them? However, it was Qin Lie’s first time making a precedent. He didn’t care and only added contribution points in exchange for this condition.
Hu Ze did not know what would happen next. He only knew that in a short period of time, his Heavenly Demon Sect would definitely increase explosively, and his military might would double. The more time passed, the more power he would be able to accumulate. As long as Qin Lie could suppress it, he could control it.
Could he really be a genius? With that thought in mind, Hu Ze and Lang Kai looked at each other.
And Xiong Kui. His body slightly trembled and his face was filled with disbelief.
Duan Yun did not wait for everyone to regain their senses, and immediately followed up with the proclamation of his Fourth Order: “Whether it is training in the martial arts or training in Profound Arts, we will need the help of Spiritual Stone s and Spiritual Artifact s. From today onwards, any Children with Heavenly Demon Sect on their list, as long as they were guaranteed, would be able to borrow money from the Mayor Palace in order to break through into the next realm. For any member of the military, there is no need to guarantee. ”
Another bomb was thrown into the Chong Zheng Palace.
Hu Ze felt a bit of dizziness in his heart. He was worried about Qin Lie previously, and was not good at government affairs.
However, at this moment, he realized that he had still underestimated the abilities of this Monarch. The four decrees were all obviously linked to each other, and were all linked to each other. More ambitious!
The first two would increase the population and benefit the future. The latter two would allow his Heavenly Demon Sect to increase by millions more warriors. A few low leveled Martial Cultivator s could even rush to higher levels.
In the future, almost seventy percent of these people would be grateful to Qin Lie. Especially within the Heavenly Demon Sect, he would be even more loyal and devoted.
Even though it had touched the interests of many large clans within the city, the tiger tribe had suffered quite a bit of damage in the short term. However, with Qin Lie’s power now, no one would dare to oppose him.
Almost everyone looked at Duan Yun once again. In Duan Yun’s hands, he held a total of seven scrolls and seven orders. The first four were already a pleasant surprise, and the last three were naturally something to look forward to.
As expected, immediately after, Duan Yun continued reading: “Gu Zeng had made an oath on the Heaven Altar. I will definitely teach my Heavenly Demon Sect family to have an elder to rely on. However, even though they were both lonely Children, they couldn’t bear to see such a side to them. Today is the first day that the Silver Hall is going to be used to raise Heavenly Demon Sect. All the elderly, widows, wounded and handicapped. ”
Hu Ze and the rest immediately frowned. Adding on the previous few, this was not a small number.
The intention of Qin Lie’s order was undoubtedly good. Inside the Heavenly Demon Sect, there were many people who were either crippled or suffering because of their son’s death on the battlefield. But the old man’s crippled money, coupled with the four previous decrees, meant that the annual expenditure of his Heavenly Demon Sect was simply not enough to support him.
The truth was that Qin Lie was still too young, and his government wasn’t mature yet, so his thoughts were too simple. Duan Yun then began to explain and after a long while, he gradually understood.
Qin Lie implied that in the entire city, anyone who could support themselves should be allowed to voluntarily deposit some of their belongings in the silver village, whether they were wealthy or not. At a certain age, or when they were disabled, they would be deemed to have deposited some of their personal belongings into the village, and would receive a monthly allowance of gold and silver to support their daily needs.
Everything was voluntary and not forced. As for everyone in the army, they would all be paid on behalf of the Heavenly Demon Sect, without having to pay for themselves. The eyes of everyone in the hall lit up. He originally thought that it was Qin Lie who was going to increase the taxes in the city, so he completely relaxed.
Then, he began to ponder over the deeper meaning of this method. He felt that this method was not only miraculous and ingenious, but also feasible.
All of a sudden, they were all confused. Some of them were mumbling and calculating; their eyes were unusual.
Including Yi Yuan, all the generals in the army. They were all eager to give it a try and wished for nothing more than for Qin Lie’s plan. It’s better to do it right away.
However, the hall was strangely quiet and no one dared to speak. They all had expressions of anticipation on their faces as they stared at the dozens of ministers ranked at the very front. Especially the one on the left, the middle-aged man in his forties who wore a white robe and a scholarly crown.
Lv You closed his eyes and muttered to himself. After a good long while, he had everything under consideration. Only then did he take a deep breath and said: “Monarch was on the Heaven Altar that day, and I swore to name him as’ Clan ‘of Heavenly Demon Sect, that there would be no difference in status, and only in power. There was no difference in bloodlines, only questions. Let my people be good for their elders, good for their children, and free from fear of food and clothing. These five orders were more than enough to complete the day’s oath. not just the various parts of Demon Clan, it also benefited the Children s of Heavenly Demon Sect. This is also the stratagem of a strong sect. It can make your Heavenly Demon Sect strong, and make your Heavenly Dragon Empire proud in a few years time! ”
Originally, he had thought that Qin Chuan would win the most. This son of his could use any martial arts, and when working under Qin Wuya, he would always be able to do it flawlessly. Three days ago, Qin Lie had appeared out of nowhere and suddenly rose to prominence. With unparalleled power, he killed Qin Chuan and the others.
Although at that time, he knew clearly that this was the son of his benefactor, he was still worried in his heart. He was afraid that this young and angry Monarch did not know how to practice. Not only did it destroy his Heavenly Demon Sect, it also destroyed his lifelong ambition.
However, at this moment, he felt extremely fortunate. Even if Qin Lie’s plan was too radical in his eyes. Many details have not been taken into account.
Just by this alone, one could see that Qin Lie’s chest was filled with rich brocade. It was grand!
Today, only these five decrees could have two or three truths, and they could be called overlords!
But immediately after, Lv You’s tone changed again, “Monarch’s strategy is indeed good. However, Heavenly Demon Sect s have limited financial resources. Loan maintenance staff only needed a few years to maintain their loans at a daily rate. As for the retirement bank, it could also reliably lend and increase the value of all sorts of methods, and its Heavenly Demon Sect could also supplement money every year. However, both require a large amount of wealth. ”
Qin Lie smiled and picked up a piece of paper. The words on it were already written: “This money can be borrowed from me, two thousand Seventh Rank Beast Crystal. In the future, Heavenly Demon Sect will be paid in instalments. ”
Liluo, who was sitting in a corner of the hall and watching from the sidelines, looked at each other for a moment. He thought to himself that this Monarch was really generous this time and was truly willing to give it up.
“By the Monarch?”
Lv You was obviously startled, and could not figure out his Monarch’s personality. Previously, for the sake of a small sum of money, they had argued with him, refusing to budge an inch. But now, he had taken out two thousand Seventh Rank Beast Crystal.
He looked at the bottom of the slip of paper and saw a few small, unremarkable words, ‘20% annual rate’.
Lv You could not help but slightly nod his head. He finally understood that this person was definitely not one to be taken advantage of.
“It might work, but there are too many two thousand Seventh Rank Beast Crystal. My Heavenly Demon Sect will only need five hundred to squeeze! However, had Monarch ever considered who this person was? If there was no supervision over this money, it could be squandered for three to five years. How could he ensure fairness and not be favouritized by others? Although there is a patrolling Imperial Censor in the Heavenly Demon Sect, this subject does not think too highly of it. Furthermore, how can I guarantee that Mayor will not withdraw these two funds and use them for his own purposes? ”
Qin Lie raised his brows, and finally revealed a look of shock. This Lv You, being able to be promoted to Prime Minister by Qin Wuya, indeed had some ability. His words were aimed straight at one’s vitals.
He picked up a piece of paper from the same desk as before. Everyone’s attention was focused on one question — — I heard that the Heavenly Demon Sect has a system of agreement by the Patriarch?
Hu Ze was confused, but he patiently answered: “Yes, there is. Back then, when the Monarch persuaded the clans to listen to their commands, they all gathered at the foot of the peak of the Sect Master of The Celestial Demon Sect. If there is agreement among the various races, our sect’s plan will be annulled. ”
Qin Lie laughed in his heart, then waved his hand towards Duan Yun, ordering him to carry out the sixth edict: “From today onwards, rebuild the agreement between the various families, and monitor the implementation of this rule. From the various sects in the Demon Clan, one person could participate every two hundred thousand people and be set up as an elder. In exchange every five years, those with a population of less than two hundred thousand would automatically have a seat as an elder. The Homo Sapiens of the city can be pushed up, and every two hundred thousand people, one more seat can be won. Also, we need to build an astral stone palace in the Heavenly Demon Sect, which can be used by all clans for discussion. ”
The people inside the hall were all confused. There was nothing they couldn’t do about it. Those two huge sums of money were being supervised and naturally not bad. However, this was a bit too much. And there was also the Iron Gale Stone Palace, this building was not bad. Although it was very expensive, it could help people break through the Sky Realm and study martial arts. These people within the Heavenly Demon Sect have all been envious of the Qiongshan City for a long time.
Wasn’t it too extravagant and wasteful to use it as an Elder’s meeting place?
Even Lv You was equally baffled. However, after thinking about it carefully, he did not say anything else.
