Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

In the Immortal Palace, during the Great Court Meeting, Wei Xiaode and Liu Zhong stood quietly on the high platform, watching the ministers below performing there. After they performed for a while, Wei Xiaode coughed lightly, and then said: "His Majesty has spoken, and in the near future, our Immortal Realm Prices are rising too fast, which has seriously affected people's lives. From today on, the prices of all commodities are not allowed to be increased at will. Anyone who violates this will be punished."

As soon as Wei Xiaode finished speaking, He Tuizhi's expression changed. Just as he was about to step forward to object, he saw Sima Lang stand up and said loudly: "Yes, I respect your Majesty's will." After Sima Lang agreed, He Tuizhi It was too late to object. He glared at He Tuizhi with some dissatisfaction and said nothing, but he bowed and accepted the order.

When other officials saw that both of them had expressed their opinions, they immediately bowed to receive the decree. Even if the decree was passed, as long as the decree was passed, it meant that it had legal effect. Here in the fairy world All must be respected.

Wei Xiaode glanced at everyone, and then said: "Lord Prime Minister, Sir Right Prime Minister, Your Majesty also asked me to ask you two, when will the weapons of the Twelve Guards be allocated? The military salary of the Twelve Guards will be halved. Your Majesty will not Objection, but you seem to have never given the Twelve Guards weapons, right? What? Could it be that the Twelve Guards are not an army, right? Or do you think that they are training with bamboo poles, which gives you a lot of face? "

As soon as Wei Xiaode finished speaking, there were several muffled laughs in the hall. It was obvious that they already knew the nickname General Zhugan, so when Wei Xiaode said this now, they couldn't help but want to laugh.

He Tuizhi glanced at Wei Xiaode, and then said: "Yes, I will wait for Your Majesty's order to distribute ordnance to the Twelve Guards and Four Guards City defenders immediately after returning."

Wei Xiaode really didn't expect that He Tuizhi would agree so quickly. He was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "It's best, then I can return to your Majesty. Sirs, if you don't Well, I will withdraw from the court today."

He Tuizhi and the others did not speak. When Wei Xiaode saw that no one spoke, he loudly said: "Quit the court." As soon as his words fell, everyone bowed to the throne and then slowly withdrew from the court. .

He Tuizhi and Sima Lang walked out. In fact, the reason why they happily gave weapons to the Twelve Guards and Four Guards City troops was because they had already discussed it. They had already guessed that the Immortal Emperor would definitely let them The ordnance they gave to the Twelve Guards and Four Acropolis armies, they also had ways to deal with it. The ordnance they gave to the Twelve Guards and Four Acropolis armies were all eliminated by other armies, and they were almost useless. And the reason why they did this was because they were worried that the Immortal Emperor would give those weapons to other armies. You must know that the Immortal Emperor now controls a lot of armies, so of course they will not give the Immortal Emperor weapons at will. .

If the Immortal Emperor blamed them for this matter, they would have made excuses long ago. The Twelve Guards and Four Guards City armies have little combat effectiveness, so they can only use ordnance eliminated by other armies. If the Twelve Guards and Four Guards City armies If the people of the Four Guards City Army are not convinced, they can compare with other armies. If they win, then they will naturally get new ordnance, and the losing side will have to use the eliminated ordnance. I want to come to the Immortal Emperor. I dare not let them compete.

However, they did not discuss the matter of the Immortal Emperor not allowing the price of goods to increase in advance, so He Tuizhi blamed Sima Lang for agreeing too quickly. When he went to court, He Tuizhi left very quickly, and He did not speak to Sima Lang to express his dissatisfaction with Sima Lang.

Sima Lang walked behind, looking at He Tuizhi's back, his eyes flashed with coldness, but then he lowered his eyes slightly, and no one could see the coldness in his eyes. He slowly walked out of the hall, and then left After arriving at the Immortal Palace in the upper realm and the Immortal Palace in the lower realm, Sima Lang took a carriage and went to He Tuizhi's house. He Tuizhi had now returned to the talisman.

When Sima Lang arrived at He Tuizhi's house, he got off the carriage and walked towards He Tuizhi's house. However, he was stopped by the concierge of He Tuizhi's house. Sima Lang looked at the concierge, and the concierge bowed. He stood up and said to Sima Lang: "Your Excellency, my master is not at home, please forgive me."

When Sima Lang heard what the porter said, his expression became even colder. He snorted coldly and without saying anything, he turned around and got on the carriage and went back to the house. Sima Lang knew very well that He Tuizhi was at home. It was just because he became angry that he didn't want to see him, and this was what made him the most angry. He really didn't expect that He Tuizhi would treat him like this. In any case, he was also the right prime minister, and his status was not the same. No better than He Tuizhi, and not He Tuizhi's subordinate. What He Tuizhi did was really too much. Sima Lang felt that He Tuizhi seemed to be insulting him, how could he not be angry.

At this time, He Tuizhi was sitting in his study. In front of him, sitting a man dressed as a scribe. This man looked to be in his forties. He Tuizhi said to the scribe: "Wu. Sir, please help me analyze what your Majesty’s oral instruction means?”

This Mr. Wu is a think tank under He Tuizhi, named Wu Meisheng. He is not very strong, but he is very smart. He Tuizhi still attaches great importance to the opinions he puts forward.

Wu Meisheng twirled his beard and pondered for a moment, then said: "Dong Weng, this should be because His Majesty is worried that the decree he issued before not to increase agricultural taxes will lose its effect, so he issued a decree now, but this decree , but it is of great benefit to us." When Wu Meisheng said this, his eyes were already shining.

He Tuizhi immediately said: "Oh? Sir, please tell me carefully."

Wu Meisheng responded, and then said: "Dong Weng, during this period of time, the caravans formed by our major families and Dong Wei have been competing for merchants from various places. The number of merchants we both grabbed is actually about the same. But there are still most businessmen who have formed a chamber of commerce and have not joined either of us. If they want to survive the crisis of tax increases, they have only one way, and that is to increase prices to balance the tax increases. However, as long as the price of their goods increases, farmers will have to spend more money to buy anything, and the price of food has not increased. In this way, although farmers have a bumper harvest, their income has not Increase, on the contrary, they spend more money to buy things, and the extra money they spend is equivalent to paying taxes. Once farmers' living costs increase, then His Majesty's previous decree that agricultural taxes will not increase , naturally it became a dead letter, so His Majesty gave the order not to allow the price of goods to increase arbitrarily."

Having said this, Wu Meisheng paused for a moment, and then said: "But although your Majesty's decree has helped farmers, it has forced those businessmen into a dead end. They originally wanted to raise prices to survive this crisis. This is a one-time opportunity, but now that they have no way to raise prices, they will naturally not be able to survive this crisis. Then they will face the risk of bankruptcy, and this is our opportunity, because this law has always Come out, for those businessmen who are holding together, their last road is blocked. Even if they are holding together, it is useless. In the end, they can only wait to die, so there is no use for them to hold together. In this way, we You can take the opportunity to win them over, so there is nothing wrong with the Right Prime Minister agreeing to your Majesty’s decree.”

When He Tuizhi heard what Wu Meisheng said, his face could not help but darken slightly, but he still said: "Okay, thank you sir. Sir, please go back and rest first." Wu Meisheng also saw that something was wrong with He Tuizhi's expression, and he stood He stood up, bowed to He Tuizhi, and then retreated.

After watching Wu Meisheng retreat, He Tuizhi sat there and couldn't help but snorted coldly and murmured: "What a Sima Lang. He is indeed amazing. He actually knew what His Majesty meant so quickly." He said loudly. He said: "Come here, go and call the housekeeper." Immediately a servant responded and went to call someone.

At this time, Sima Lang also returned to his home and ordered the housekeeper to take advantage of the decree to start attracting people. He believed that this time they would definitely attract more people into their family.

What they didn't know was that at the entrance, Chen Xiwang and Ma Degong were sitting in the Xuanwu Space, reporting the matter to Zhao Hai. Chen Xiwang said to Zhao Hai: "Master, let's take advantage of the fact that we know this decree first. The opportunity has brought more businessmen to our chamber of commerce. The number of businessmen who have joined our chamber of commerce now reaches about six levels. Although these businessmen have joined His Majesty's camp on the surface, they have actually all joined us. Chamber of Commerce, as long as we give us a period of time, we can turn them all into disciples that we have killed with blood. In this way, we are equivalent to controlling the business here in the fairy world. And this time, the businessmen we control are still based on some sources. Material merchants are the main ones, and now in the Immortal Realm, there are already eight levels of merchants of various source materials who belong to us, which means that as long as we are willing, we can completely cut off the supply of source materials in the Immortal Realm."

Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Okay, well done, but tell them that the supply of source materials must not be cut off, and the people here in the Immortal Realm must not be alerted. This move of theirs must be saved until the end before they can use it. , using it now has no meaning, do you understand?" The two of them responded in unison.

Zhao Hai glanced at the two of them, and then said in a deep voice: "You two must be more careful in the future, and don't let anyone see any flaws. Also, although you have Dongwei under control now, don't fight with the blood." If you have too much contact with Zong, don’t arouse Wei Xiaode’s suspicion, especially now that Wei Xiaode has begun to suppress us, it’s even more important not to arouse his suspicion.” Both of them responded.

Zhao Hai then waved his hands, and the two of them stood up, bowed to Zhao Hai, and left directly. They couldn't stay here for too long. If Wei Xiaode found out, they might be suspicious of them, so they told the matter After finishing it, we must go back immediately. There is no way around this. Who makes the two of them more sensitive? If they are really exposed, the loss will be too great for the Blood Killing Sect, because then If so, the Blood Killing Sect would have lost its own intelligence network, and they would become deaf.
