Behind me is the earth

Chapter 461 459. Building Consensus and Guarding the Way

After the war with the Daru people, the army did not return to Wuzhou, and the First Army was still stationed in Yueyang County.

The Second Route Army reorganized its troops in Jinshan County.

They will then be dispatched nationwide in accordance with the unified arrangements of the Ministry of National Defense.

Although the war was over, the war with the Daru Kingdom was not.

In the coming time, it is foreseeable that there will be many wars.

It may be that Daru's army continues to send large armies to fight, or it may be a high-frequency frictional war.

At this time, what Qi needs to do is to maintain a strong determination, continue to accumulate internal strength, develop itself, and actively prepare for war.

After returning to the palace, Ren Pingsheng held a simple court meeting, and the court unified his thoughts.

Most of the senior army officials in the military department are now at the military base in Jinshan County, Chujiang Province, and the naval officials are at the naval base in Dongyang County. Most of the people currently in Qifeng City are civil servants from various ministries. The main topic of the court meeting is the next economic development. Development has set a tone.

We will focus on developing Wuzhou’s economy and support Qingcheng and Yile counties to continue to develop industrial production.

Vigorously promote Dongyang County to develop finance and maritime trade.

At the same time, the Ministry of Finance and Taxation collaborates with other ministries to promote infrastructure construction in western provinces and improve people's livelihood. The Ministry of Civil Affairs focuses on strengthening the data assessment of local officials on local household registration and land allocation, social stability, economic development, ideological education and other aspects.

State-owned enterprises represented by Qixing Group invest in southern and western provinces.

Relevant policies such as land, taxation and subsidies, as well as financial support such as loans and guaranteed financing, have been introduced to encourage private business gangs and firms in the province to invest in and build factories in western provinces to expand production.

It is planned to establish new industrial bases in Sanjiang County and Jinshan County.

Both places have natural geographical conditions, important mineral resources, excellent transportation resources, human resources, etc., and have the basis for establishing industrial bases.

Open and build Huaqiang County of Guangnan Army as an outlet to the sea.

First of all, there is already a basis for sea trade here. The sea merchants on the South China Sea are no weaker than Zheng Shaoguan of Dongyang County.

Secondly, the area is bordered by the Nanyang Kingdoms and prosperous maritime transportation routes. Once the construction is completed, it will soon prosper, and its future development potential will even exceed that of Dongyang County.

Finally, the hydrological conditions here are also suitable for building a port.

“These plans sound very exciting, but there are many contradictions and difficulties in their implementation. Everyone needs to do detailed research before they can get started.

While working, you must keep your head down and keep your head up at the same time.

After the court meeting is over, after returning home, each ministry will come up with practical plans. Those who cannot decide on their own should work together to manage the issues together, break down the barriers between departments, form a special working group, jointly formulate a plan, and report to Zhongshu Pavilion.

This is a major event in the next five to ten years. Once a decision is made, it cannot be changed easily. Before starting, you must clarify your thoughts and do everything possible. "

Ren Pingsheng said after reading the record of the results of the court meeting.

This record is not only a summary of the issues discussed at the meeting, but also a draft of the development plan.

After the collection is completed in Zhongshu Pavilion, it will be distributed to the ministers of various ministries, and some will be picked out and published in the Qi State Monthly Report.

After the court, the officials walked on the stone bricks and went out.

There were not many officials attending the court meeting, only ministers from various ministries and a few important department directors from each ministry.

They all have a deep understanding of Qi State today, so they can also appreciate the value of this plan.

"In the past few months, Director Zhou has been conducting research in various places. It has been really hard and he has lost a lot of weight."

When Zhou Lanshan was walking down the steps, his colleagues came over to chat with him.

"When you work for the king and for Li Yuan, you should do your best. A little hard work is nothing."

Zhou Lanshan said.

"Director Zhou thinks that the tone set by the court today will be possible?"

the colleague asked.

"certainly!"

Zhou Lanshan nodded affirmatively and said: "This is what the adults of various ministries have gone through countless arguments over the past few months. It is also a plan that has been carefully thought out by the king with great wisdom and strategy, and promoted by the king and ministers. , there are many difficulties, but as we work together, what can't we accomplish?"

When my colleagues heard this, they also smiled brightly and said: "Of course, of course."

He remembered that Director Zhou was a loyal and fanatical fan of the King and a capable general.

However, he was also influenced by the energetic Director Zhou, and he began to have greater confidence in the future development of Qi.

People are ultimately affected by their surrounding environment.

Today's officialdom in Qi is thriving and people are united. Officials in this environment will also be affected by this high-spirited political atmosphere and have more energy and momentum.

Some veterans of the old days also sighed inwardly. In the new dynasty and the new atmosphere, there are not so many constraints and there are not so many rules and regulations, but there is a fault-tolerance and error-correction mechanism formulated by the king. Therefore, there are fewer intrigues and there are more capable ones. The incentive mechanism created by mediocrity allows officials to free their hands and feet to do practical things and focus on their careers.

Taoist priest Yunlong Guanqingyuan saw officials coming out one after another on the street outside the palace gate.

He is not good at the so-called fortune-telling, but he is good at observing people. From the mental outlook of these officials, he can see that Qi State is prospering.

He was very satisfied with his vision and chose King Qi as the Qianlong in advance.

Now, this "Great Immortal Lord" has gradually developed the power of a flying dragon in the sky, and is about to usher in the time to unify the world.

But what is distressing is that this Qianlong did not reuse him, and even had a strong defensive mentality towards him, as well as Yunlongguan and Tianyiyi. This can be seen from the fact that the other party fully supports the development of Yunmen, but suppresses the preaching of Tianyiyi.

For this purpose, Taoist Priest Qingyuan went to the palace and even among the ministers, but failed to achieve very good results.

By now, many ministers have seen the king's thoughts and have adopted a respectful attitude towards Taoist Priest Qingyuan. This made his preaching in Qifeng City even more difficult.

"What is the reason for this? Because I, the Heavenly Path, failed to provide enough help? Or are you worried that my Heavenly Path's preaching will affect the imperial power? Or is it that the king is not happy with my Taoism deep in his heart?"

Taoist Priest Qingyuan was puzzled.

After all the senior officials left in their cars, Taoist Master Qingyuan walked towards the palace.

Behind him, there was a silent woman. She was wearing a blue robe, with fair skin, clear face contours, and clean and delicate facial features. A wooden hairpin was inserted diagonally in her bun, and a few strands of hair were hanging down. She tucked it behind her ears, looking neat and tidy.

Taoist priest Qingyuan entered the palace gate and ordered: "Don't say too much for a while. If the king asks you, just answer whatever is asked. If you don't ask, don't say more."

"Understood."

The female Taoist nodded.

Entering the palace gate, although Taoist priest Qingyuan has moved out of the palace since the Yunlong Temple was established in Qifeng City, he still has the palace's badge and does not need to report before entering the second palace gate.

As soon as he entered the palace, he encountered a group of patrolling guards in bright armor and carrying rifles. Each of these guards exudes an extremely strong aura, and the leader has "qi" flowing and surging around his body. He is obviously a warrior who has cultivated his internal strength.

Compared with before, with the development of Ren Pingsheng Group, there are abundant talents, and the security force has further increased.

"The rapid emergence of Yin Yuan realm warriors has a lot to do with Yunmen. A mere single Yin Yuan sect with only two disciples left, in such a short period of time, it has become one with nearly a thousand martial arts halls and several A martial arts sect with thousands of disciples and tens of thousands of registered disciples.

If I, Yunlongguan, were treated like this, why would I be wasting my time now? "

Taoist Priest Qingyuan couldn't help but feel envious when he thought of this.

He felt like he got up early and rushed to the late market.

Nowadays, the king's attitude towards Yunlong Temple is to both develop and contain, to use and to guard against. He can feel the king's attitude, so he feels very uncomfortable.

With Yunmen, which received full support, it was like the sky and the earth.

"No matter what happens today, we must reflect the value of Tianyi and get the support of the king."

The reason why Taoist Priest Qingyuan is confident today is because he came with the sincerity of Tianyi Dao.

While he was waiting in Guo'an Zhai, thinking about what to say for the next meeting, Ren Pingsheng had a very sumptuous dinner and walked in all directions to Guo'an Zhai.

"Your Highness, stay safe!"

Hearing the slow footsteps coming from outside, Taoist Master Qingyuan immediately stood up.

The female Taoist behind him followed suit and bowed down to greet Ren Pingsheng who walked in from the door.

"Stay flat."

Ren Pingsheng enthusiastically helped up the Qingyuan Taoist and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days. The Taoist is in good spirits. I think he will improve his realm again."

"Thanks to His Highness, Pindao has now reached the threshold of refining energy and becoming a god. Perhaps in the next few years, he will have the opportunity to touch the gods and be introduced to the path."

If refining energy and transforming it into spirit means entering the Taoist gate, then refining energy and transforming it into spirit means truly entering the path.

"The Taoist priest has a smooth road, which is really enviable to others. The country of Qi is also lucky to have the Taoist priest protecting it."

Ren Pingsheng sat down on the main seat and put a high hat on his head.

"Your Highness is really ashamed of Pindao. He has followed the king for several years and has not made much contribution. This has always been a matter of shame for Pindao.

However, now that the poor Taoist has reached the threshold of refining gods, he also has the ability to consecrate gods and spirits. He can consecrate the gods of nature, compile and train the Taoist soldiers of the five elements, regulate the smoothness of mountains and rivers, provide for the harvest of grains, make the weather smooth, the grains are abundant, and the people live in peace. , the people are happy, the country is prosperous, the society is prosperous, and the military is victorious. "

The Taoist priest from Qingyuan, with his wide robe and wide sleeves, bowed to the ground.

"oh?"

Ren Pingsheng looked serious, straightened his sitting posture, raised his hand, and suddenly an incredible force lifted up Taoist Master Qingyuan: "Taoist Master, please elaborate."

Taoist Master Qingyuan then sat down gently, stroked his beard and said: "Tao gives birth to one, gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives rise to all things. There are many roads in cultivating the Tao, including smooth roads and straight roads, and there are also tricks to protect yourself. , protect Taoism.

Among them is the talisman technique, which is the technique of protecting the Tao. Consecrating gods and refining Taoist soldiers is the magic of protecting Taoism. It is also the art of Taoist disciples walking around the world, sorting out mountains and rivers, and safeguarding humanity.

This is recorded in the Taoist scriptures and has long been lost to research. But after Pindao touched the threshold of refining the gods, after testing, he found that it was exactly the same as what was said in the Taoist scriptures, proving that what was said in the Taoist scriptures was true! "

As he spoke, a piece of talisman paper appeared in his hand. The cinnabar on it shone with the luster of metal crystals: "This is a golden talisman. Tattooed on the body, it is like wearing golden armor. Swordsmen cannot attack the body, and evil spirits cannot harm it."

Ren Pingsheng waved, and the magic talisman in Qingyuan Taoist Master's hand flew into his hand with a "swish".

He looked at the runes on the yellow talisman carefully, imitated the runes on it, and drew them in the void. The golden spirit power was forced to be trapped by the power of thought, and a golden rune was formed in the void. Floating in the air, the golden light is bright and visible to the naked eye.

"ah?"

The female Taoist behind Taoist Master Qingyuan couldn't help but exclaimed, with an incredible look on her face.

She has never seen someone who can draw a talisman successfully in one go, let alone someone who can draw a talisman in the void.

The scene in front of her simply shattered her outlook on life and made her doubt her own practice.

Ren Pingsheng glanced at her: "Here comes someone!"

The gate of Guoanzhai opened immediately, and two guards walked in: "Your Majesty!"

Ren Pingsheng waved his hand, and golden runes shot out from the air and were imprinted on one of the guards.

Suddenly, golden light flashed, and the golden light flashed on the guard's skin.

At the same time, the yellow talisman in his hand was thrown out and stuck to another guard.

"You guys practice it and let me see how defensive the talisman is."

Ren Pingsheng said.

"yes!"

Both of them are high-level warriors and are very familiar with the techniques of exerting force. They work closely together as comrades, and they are not afraid of accidentally hurting each other's life.

Pulling out the dagger, they practiced head-on.

"bass!"

When the dagger scratched the skin of the opponent's arm, it suddenly made a sound of metal friction, as if the blade had scratched a steel plate.

After practicing dozens of moves, Ren Pingsheng already had a relatively detailed understanding.

"Go ahead."

Ren Pingsheng asked them to go out.

"After the rune is activated, the golden aura continues to dissipate. This rune will not be used a few times, right?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

With such runes, it is okay to supply a special unit, but it is difficult to promote them on a large scale and exert greater value. As for the special forces, Qi State has three major organizations: Night Cat, Divine Arrow Division, and Guard House, which have absorbed a large number of strangers, warriors, and fairies. This rune can only be regarded as the icing on the cake.

"If you consecrate the gods, build temples, and offer incense, the runes will naturally connect to the gods, and the Taoist soldiers will be able to maintain them day and night.

For example, if runes are tattooed on Taoist soldiers and temples of natural gods are built in military camps, Taoist soldiers can naturally be endowed with the aura of the five elements through the gods. "

Taoist Priest Qingyuan introduced.

A power bank?

Ren Pingsheng thought.

According to Qingyuan Taoist Master, this temple dedicated to the gods is like a power bank, attracting the five elements of spiritual energy to charge the Taoist soldiers. Even if the spiritual energy is consumed in battle, it can be replenished around the temple.

But building a Taoist temple?

Still want to build in the military?

Ren Pingsheng looked at Taoist Master Qingyuan who looked expectant. Although his face was calm, there was a bit of chill in his eyes.
