After the immortal disappeared

In this regard, King Yao still maintained his rationality and still did not allow his regular army to end directly.

The second news is that Miao Zhantian Temple began to contact the Situ family, the leader of the allied forces.

This is not good news. He Lingchuan frowned for a long time.

From his perspective, this is a two-way street. If Miao Zhantian wants to extend his power to the Allied territory, he has to go through the Situ family, just like the monarch of the Yao Kingdom more than a hundred years ago led the whole people to worship Miao Zhantian as their main god.

The war between the Allies and Visya seems to be gaining the upper hand now. Miao Zhantian may have seen the potential of the Allied Forces and thought it was worth investing in.

For Situ He, with the help of Miao Zhantian's strong influence in the Golden Flash Plains, the Situ family's leadership of the post-war Allied Forces will become more stable.

Situ He expressed to He Lingchuan more than once that their father and son hoped to use Bejia's power. And isn't Bega's ultimate power the god of heaven? If they can take advantage of the powerful righteous god Miao Zhantian, the Allies will be confident in their future actions in the Golden Flash Plains, especially in dealing with the Yao Kingdom.

He Lingchuan also remembered the goal of Situ and his son, which was to end Yao Kingdom's rule over the entire Shining Gold Plains and completely wipe out Yao Kingdom's influence. To achieve this goal, Situ He should at least not offend Miao Zhantian.

The problem is that He Lingchuan knows very well what kind of virtue the gods are. Once the allies agree to Miao Zhantian's request, they will eventually put chains around their necks.

Seeing him holding the note without saying a word for a long time, the soul-catching mirror couldn't help but ask: "Is there any great inside story about these two things?"

"Most people think that the source of the disaster in Flash Gold is the Yao Kingdom; before I came to the Flash Gold Plains, I also thought that the biggest obstacle to our development would be the Yao Kingdom." He Lingchuan shook the note and said, "Wrong."

The soul-capturing mirror plays its role: "What is that?"

"It's the God of Heaven." He Lingchuan said calmly, "To be more specific, it's Miao Zhantian."

"The gods' wishful thinking is that no matter how hard these forces fight to the death on the Golden Flash Plain, they will eventually have to believe in them." He sighed softly, "This has been true in the past few hundred years, with so many heroes and powerful people coming and going. Go ahead, the shining gold is still the shining gold, using flesh and blood to satisfy the needs of the gods. "

"So, if we want to truly win the Golden Gold Plains, apart from the Yao Kingdom, the real obstacle ahead of us is Miao Zhantian!" He Lingchuan said thrilling words in a calm tone, "We must weaken the influence of the gods on this land. , otherwise what we do will be just another reincarnation on the Golden Gold Plains.”

The true rise of Emperor Jiuyou must be directly proportional to the decline of the gods in Flash Gold.

"Hey, don't make it more difficult for yourself." Soul-Calling Mirror protested, "What you have to do now is already difficult."

"What I have to do is basically done." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "The next thing to consider is how to escape safely from the rapids."

"King Yao will not let you go." The mirror could see clearly at this time, "Even if you give him all your money."

He Lingchuan contributed a lot to the development of the situation in Yao State to the point it is today. The relationship between Yao King and Qingyang can no longer go back, just like the relationship between Yao Kingdom and Bejia can never go back to the past. When Yao King reacts, he will not let He Lingchuan go.

"So, timing is very important." He Lingchuan had no intention of giving away all the money he earned based on his own skills. "Everyone in the Yao Kingdom has gone crazy, and they are making great strides towards the end."

"Also, I always find it a bit weird that the Miao Zhantian forces want to infiltrate the Allied territory."

The mirror was puzzled: "Don't gods all do this, compete with each other for faith?"

"There's something wrong." He Lingchuan stroked his chin, "Miao Zhantian is not one of those little wild gods on the Shining Gold Plains. He is not only one of the righteous gods, but also a very important god among the Lingxu gods. Look at this in Yao Kingdom After more than a hundred years of efforts to build temples and worship it, it is still very dissatisfied, which shows how arrogant and greedy this god is."

"Such a righteous god, enjoying the worship and incense from the power of the Yao Kingdom, how could he ever look at the Allies in the past? Not to mention ordering his own temple to actively contact them."

Mirror Hypothesis: "Maybe it's because the conflicts in the divine world are getting more intense and the gods are paying more attention to the struggle for faith?"

"It's not impossible. But conflicts in the divine realm will most likely lead to turmoil in the human world. Don't forget that the Yao Kingdom is supporting Bixia in the war, but its soul master extends an olive branch to Situ He. This sounds a bit divisive. I guess King Yao may not know this yet.”

"Olive branch?" The mirror didn't understand what it meant.

"It's just a proactive show of goodwill." He Lingchuan pondered, "Situ He can get into Miao Zhantian's eyes. In addition to the increasingly stable position of the allies, I wonder if Miao Zhantian has other plans, such as supporting another party. power?"

Once the Allied forces defeat Visha, a new force will emerge in the central part of Golden Gold. Will this be able to enter the Dharma Eye of Miaozhantian?

He Lingchuan wouldn't find it strange if other minor gods took the initiative to contact the Allies. But by doing this, is Miao Zhantian a bit condescending?

It is the main god of the Yao Kingdom. It enjoys the worship of the most powerful country in Flash Gold. Does it still need to take the initiative to hook up with the emerging forces on the plains?

Well, unless...

The next day, Wang Fubao, who was working as a personal guard for Gu Lin in Tonglin Ji, sent back a message:

Tonglinji went to buy grain from four places in the southwest, but was told that it was out of stock.

This year's autumn harvest of new grain has been put on the market one after another. In addition to several large granaries such as Mangzhou and Taoshui, grain from other places has also been harvested and sold by farmers to grain merchants, thus entering the normal sales channel.

What He Lingchuan asked Tonglinji to do every minute was to buy grain from grain merchants.

This step is much easier than buying grain from government warehouses or from Lu Yuanzheng and others. Grain merchants of all sizes fight each other and are at most controlled by the guild. As long as the price is right, they have no reason not to sell.

But Tonglinji found that the grain in several areas of the southwest had been bought out earlier.

That was tens of millions of kilograms of grain.

Who bought it?

I don't know.

He Lingchuan is ashamed of this level. He is just a foreign businessman, and Tonglinji is not an organization of that magnitude.

The other party is really well-connected.

Gulin attached great importance to it and mobilized his own connections to inquire, but nothing came of it.

These people who secretly collected grain are not simple.

He Lingchuan got this information, thought for a long time, and just said: "Let's observe it."

In the next few days, Tonglinji reported several more news. The sources and output of several items of materials that He Lingchuan asked to collect have dropped sharply. When asked, they all said that someone else was collecting them.

He Lingchuan was anxious to turn money into materials and then transport the materials to fill the more than 50 storage points. What is the purpose of the other party?

Well, I don't know how many forces are acting in secret.

He Lingchuan always pays attention to market prices. In the previous two months, although the price of residential land in the new city has skyrocketed, the price of food, clothing and daily necessities of the common people has not increased much, and the market has always been in a state of supply and demand.

This is not surprising at all. The upper-class dignitaries, the middle-class merchants, and the lower-class civilians are all anxious to exchange the materials and goods in their hands for money so that they can go to Tianshui New City to get another piece of land or repay their debts.

Everyone is selling, even selling things that do not belong to them, so in a short period of time, the materials on the market will be extremely abundant, cheap and good.

He Lingchuan knew that if a country's production capacity was extremely strong, it would not be a bad thing to play like this, but it would promote the circulation of goods.

Money, it is valuable only when it circulates.

But the problem is, can Yaoguo's materials be endless?

It is a powerful country of shining gold, but in terms of size and national strength, compared with Mouguo and Beijia, it is just a child in front of adults.

The means are too advanced, which is not necessarily a good thing.

"The good things have been collected almost. If we continue to do it, it will inevitably attract the attention of the authorities or the other party." He Lingchuan decided to stop while he was ahead, "All material purchases will be suspended, and Gulin will collect Xuanjing for me, the more the better."

Xuanjing is a valuable commodity, which is often counted at ten thousand taels, and it is also convenient to transport, which is very suitable for him to cash in. And the price of Xuanjing on the black market has dropped a bit recently. He Lingchuan knows that it may be because a new round of Emperor Liujiang's outbreak is about to come, and it is said that it is still "unprecedented". The upper-class officials got the news and took the opportunity to sell some Xuanjing, otherwise the price would be lower at that time.

Since it is a commodity, there are rules for its price.

Soon, Gulin found clues:

Those who collect large amounts of grain are usually Kongbao merchants. Obviously, the tactics used by Tonglinji are also well-versed in the secret forces.

However, one of them still showed its hand and used a group of people Gulin knew.

The forces behind them did not sound very eye-catching. At least He Lingchuan had never heard of them. They were just a small local clan with the surname Shi. But Gulin was very serious:

"The Shi family has produced two generals in the past 20 years, both of whom have fought on the battlefield. Do you know who they were under?"

"Who?" He Lingchuan's curiosity was also aroused.

"Bai Tan, known as General Bai." Gulin said again, "We all know in the industry that the Shi family actually works for General Bai."

Bai Tan no longer fights, but still maintains the old relationship with his old subordinates in the barracks.

Even He Lingchuan was a little surprised: "Why is it General Bai?"

He thought it would be Qingyang.

Wouldn't it be good for Bai Tan to take his salary well, occasionally indulge his subordinates to take a little, and then give him a gift, and honestly follow the routine of Tianshui City officialdom?

He instructed his old subordinates to collect supplies everywhere, what do they want to do?

Gulin said again: "But they didn't collect much, at least I didn't find much, and it is not ruled out that they use it for themselves?"

"That means that there are more forces doing this in secret." He Lingchuan was relieved that he was not the only one who dug up the foundation of Yaoguo, and he was fast and fierce, "You just said that you couldn't find out their background."

"They are very clean and do things without leaking a drop of water."

"There is strength in numbers, interesting." He Lingchuan stroked his chin, "The Shi family is just an amateur who can be caught by you. The real crocodile is still lurking under the water."
