Speed Up The Path To Immortality!
Chapter 97 Your Majesty, Gentlemen, I Am So Happy, Sheng Guo Is Rich.
Chapter 97 Your Majesty, gentlemen, I am so happy, Sheng Guo is rich.
Wei Zhongxian showed with practical actions that Elder Ji is really a very charismatic person.
Cao Ziming stayed with Ji Changsheng for two or three days, and Haoran Zhengqi had evolved to be very flexible.
Wei Zhongxian only followed Ji Changsheng for one day and one night, and his operational efficiency also improved rapidly.
After Ji Changsheng said, "I have suffered all the hardships, my Majesty is responsible for the infamy." Wei Zhongxian issued an order to confiscate his house.
In less than half an hour, Ji Changsheng sat in the middle and had already obtained the copied family information compiled by Wei Zhongxian.
"Elder Ji, it's a bit... shocking."
To be honest, Wei Zhongxian was ashamed.
He also likes to make money.
As a eunuch, he also took bribes.
But compared with these civil servants and generals from foreign dynasties, he felt that he really insulted the word "money greed".
He doesn't deserve to be a corrupt official.
Even his dead adoptive father, as a "genuine" "demonic demon", is not worthy of being a corrupt official.
"It's too exaggerated." Wei Zhongxian's outlook was completely changed: "There is a junior official who is only a fifth-grade official, and his family actually has eighty-seven sets of blessed land."
As soon as Cao Ziming came over, he heard Wei Zhongxian's words.
With a "pop" sound, Cao Ziming fell directly to the ground.
"How many?"
Wei Zhongxian understood Cao Ziming's reaction very well.
He also thought he had read the numbers wrong.
"Eighty-seven sets of blessed lands, and half of them are top-notch blessed lands... Mr. Cao, I have to ask a humble question, am I richer than you?"
Cao Ziming was stunned: "How can I deserve a rich man like Pengci?"
The most valuable thing about him is the sword in his hand.
But this was passed down to him by his master.
In the blessed land...he has nothing in the world of mortals.
There is a set in Danqing Pavilion, which belongs to Danqing Pavilion.
After he is sent to the Profound Merit Temple to communicate, he will be temporarily handed over to other disciples for use.
Needless to say, Senior Brother Cao is a pure proletarian.
Innate is very suitable for following Ji Changsheng to make changes...it is suitable for following Ji Changsheng to learn how to use Haoran Zhengqi!
“The most indignant one, the Minister of Household Affairs, kept saying that there was no Spirit Stone in the national treasury... It was true that there was no Spirit Stone in the national treasury, but 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stones were confiscated from his house.”
With a "pop" sound, Cao Ziming knelt down again.
He shed tears of poverty.
"Thirty-seven billion High Grade Spirit Stone, I have never seen so much money in my life." Cao Ziming murmured.
The Supreme Grade Spirit Stone can only be used by all major sects. It is only for practitioners to practice and is not circulated in the mortal world.
The limit that ordinary Independent Cultivators and ordinary people can obtain is the High Grade Spirit Stone.
However, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. As long as there are enough High Grade Spirit Stones, they can naturally be exchanged for Supreme Grade Spirit Stones.
Even in the world of spiritual practice, 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stones is an incredible number.
Let's put it this way, if someone donates 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stone to Profound Merit Temple, the visitor can personally treat this great philanthropist to a meal, and can award such a great philanthropist a charity medal.
Cao Ziming has indeed never seen so many High Grade Spirit Stones since he was born.
He was also refreshed in his outlook on life.
Then the anger grew and murderous intent raged.
"Junior Brother Ji, you are absolutely right. These people really deserve to be killed. Letting them live would be cruel to the people of the world. This is all the blood of the people of Shengguo and the Independent Cultivator."
Obviously, this was not earned by the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance through his ability.
"Before, when I followed Mr. Wei's team to ransack their homes, I felt a little pity for the families of the prisoners. Now that I think about it, how naive I was. I feel sorry for the families of these prisoners. In such a huge country, I don't know how many people have been affected by this. A swarm of moths ruined the home."
Cao Ziming was a little excited.
There was both shame at being soft-hearted just now and anger at these moths.
Junior brother Ji is so right.
What are the rules and etiquette for dealing with these moths? What do you mean by benevolence, justice and morality?
They should all be killed.
Ji Changsheng said nothing to Senior Brother Cao.
Senior Brother Cao has made rapid progress recently, and I believe he has strong adjustment ability.
Ji Changsheng was mainly looking at the quantity confiscated from Wei Zhongxian's house.
After a brief read, Ji Changsheng basically had the answer.
"It seems that the compensation for the Danqing Blessed Land is enough, is it enough?"
Wei Zhongxian nodded affirmatively: "Absolutely enough."
He saw the simple summary and knew that this was an astronomical figure.
The Spirit Stone problem that troubled everyone in the court was perfectly solved in his hands.
Wei Zhongxian found it ironic.
Those people always say that eunuchs like them are not good people.
Wei Zhongxian also admitted that he was indeed not a good person.
The godfather had just been killed by Ji Changsheng, and he immediately hugged Ji Changsheng's thigh and started licking it. This was certainly not something a gentleman could do.
But no matter how little he is, he feels that he is more human than these guys.
So shameless.
Too greedy.
"Elder Ji, we haven't finished confiscating the homes of these prisoners. At most, half of their property has been collected. They will be carefully counted later." Wei Zhongxian reported: "I am sure of my humble position. If I just pay the Danqing Blessed Land, I will definitely pay for it." There is plenty, and there will be plenty.”
Normally, in the past, he would have withheld half of the items like ransacking a house.
But now that he is working with Ji Changsheng, he has no intention of holding back at all.
Wei Zhongxian is now focused on the "Golden Jade Intermittent Pill" that Ji Changsheng promised him.
And as Ji Changsheng said, try to live like a human being.
With Ji Changsheng here and sweeping away all these evil spirits, Wei Zhongxian felt that he might really have a chance to be the kind of person Ji Changsheng named him.
"good."
Ji Changsheng patted Wei Zhongxian's shoulder approvingly.
Only then did he see Cao Ziming losing his composure.
"Senior Brother Cao, there's no need to be so rude. You'll get used to it when you see him more often."
Ji Changsheng had seen something even more exaggerated in his previous life.
An ordinary petty official would dare to steal nine figures once he has the power.
The most bizarre thing is that there are still people who only dare to be greedy but not spend.
The euphemistic name is poor and afraid.
Art comes from life.
What was shown on a certain TV show was really not an exaggeration.
In contrast, these things in Shengguo are not new.
"If I am not sure that I can extract Spirit Stones from these people's homes that are enough to compensate Danqing Blessed Land 'Ru Go', I will not do it easily." Ji Changsheng said sarcastically: "My confidence in these thieves has never wavered. , They can suffer the country, they can suffer the people, but they must not suffer themselves. We can only let us take action to suffer them."
Cao Ziming gritted his teeth and said: "You really have to suffer them. If they don't suffer, 99% of the people in Shengguo will not be able to suffer."
"Wei Zhongxian, continue copying, and copy out all the Spirit Stones they put at the bottom of the box. Senior Brother Cao, you follow the supervision. If you find someone who is truly impoverished, write them down silently. We will not let a bad person go. Nor does it wrong a good man.”
Cao Ziming was very moved: "Junior Brother Ji, I am really impressed that you can still maintain your sanity and calmness at this level. I just want to bleed into a river now."
He got a little carried away and just wanted to kill people.
Ji Changsheng is actually more murderous than him.
After all, killing people now is nothing but merit in Ji Changsheng's eyes.
However, the deep-rooted legal consciousness and the integrity of a righteous disciple still made Ji Changsheng insist on following the procedure.
"Senior Brother Cao, don't worry, let's go through the procedures. If you want to kill someone, you still have to have a decent reason. I'll find a reason for you."
"What reason?"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty and all the court officials."
This is what Ji Changsheng said, and this is what he did.
Three minutes later.
Jinluan Palace.
Ji Changsheng followed the normal procedure and asked the guard on duty to report.
After getting the emperor's permission, Ji Changsheng entered the Jinluan Hall.
Obeying the law starts with me.
As soon as he entered the Jinluan Hall, Ji Changsheng heard the familiar sound of quarreling again;
"Your Majesty, it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and I really can't transform the Spirit Stone."
"I know that Your Majesty cares about the people, but the national treasury is currently too full of resources to do so."
"Your Majesty, you can't think about everything for the people. Many people are very short-sighted and only think about their own land. They don't understand the difficulties of the court."
"Now our Sheng Kingdom is resisting the Ying Kingdom in the north, rejecting the Qi Kingdom in the south, and there are flood-stricken dragons in the southwest. One by one, they all point to the Spirit Stones in the treasury. Your Majesty, we really don't have Spirit Stones. It's hard. Let the common people suffer, the old minister is willing to bear the insult."
"I'll just say one thing - if your majesty can fill the national treasury, I can cancel the 'ru enough'. Now that the national treasury is empty and there is no Spirit Stone, everything is just talk on paper. It is absolutely impossible to cancel the 'ru enough'."
…
Ji Changsheng heard this and said decisively: "Your Majesty, gentlemen, I am so happy, we have the Spirit Stone."
"Um?"
Everyone looked at Ji Changsheng.
The prime minister, who was about to curse his mother, immediately swallowed the curse words.
Although he has not yet received the news that Ji Changsheng directed the bloody palace incident last night, it is already confirmed that Ji Changsheng killed the crown prince and the eldest princess of the East Palace.
The prime minister was very worried that if he scolded Ji Changsheng, he would go to accompany the prince.
Keep a steady hand.
Others thought the same thing.
Although you can't say bad words, you still have to question them.
"Elder Ji, what are you talking about?"
Ji Changsheng said seriously: "Aren't Your Majesty and the princes worried about the empty treasury? I'm here to bring you good news. Sheng Guo has money, so you don't have to worry."
"It's just... nonsense."
Shangshu Hube was tempted to use more dirty words.
But thinking about Ji Changsheng's illustrious record, he still only used "nonsense".
"Elder Ji, you are from outside the country. Please don't interfere in the affairs of the Sheng Kingdom."
The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance put Ji Changsheng out of political affairs in one sentence.
What Ying Hongye said is right.
There was a lot of talk and power struggle in the court today.
It's a pity that Ji Changsheng doesn't play power struggle with them at all.
"I did not interfere in the government affairs of the Sheng Kingdom. Your Majesty felt that the new king was lacking in virtue when he came to power, so he knelt down and asked this elder to come out and help him."
Ji Changsheng passed the responsibility to the emperor without any psychological pressure.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne and looked at Ji Changsheng sadly, but could not say a word.
Nowhere to speak of desolation.
The emperor didn't speak, and the ministers couldn't do anything.
The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue still reminded: "Your Majesty is young and ignorant, Elder Ji should understand. According to the "Immortal Gate Convention", a practitioner like you is not allowed to interfere in Sheng's internal affairs."
"Of course, anyone who knows me knows that this elder has always abided by the law."
Ministers: "..."
Hard to comment.
But I dare not say it is not.
Can only remain silent.
Ji Changsheng continued: "I'm not here to interfere in Sheng's internal affairs. I'm here to bring good news to you and your Majesty. Your Majesty, sirs, Sheng Guo is really rich."
The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue frowned and asked: "Elder Ji, I am in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. Is it possible that it is better for you to understand the state of the treasury?"
Ji Changsheng said patiently: "You know the national treasury, but you don't know the private treasury."
"Private treasury? What is a private treasury?"
This is the first time that the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance has heard of this word.
Ji Changsheng explained: "The princes saw that the national treasury was empty and the people in the world were in dire straits, so they donated generously to support the national treasury. In this way, wouldn't Sheng Guo have money?"
The Minister of Household Affairs laughed angrily: "Elder Ji, my official salary is meager and it is not enough to support a family. How can I support the state treasury?"
After the words fell, Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance felt that saying this was too disrespectful to Ji Changsheng, so he immediately added: "Of course, since Elder Ji said this, I will definitely respond. But I have no money left, so I am willing to donate 100 High Grade Spirit Stone, replenish the treasury.”
"Master Niu is truly a role model for our generation."
"I am also willing to donate fifty Spirit Stones."
"I'm probably seventy."
…
It is an unspoken rule in official circles that if it is a donation, your donation must not be more than that of your boss.
Otherwise you will be put in the shoes.
Seeing the ministers giving so generously, the emperor sitting on the dragon throne was very moved.
They are all loyal ministers.
Ji Changsheng was also very moved.
Even though their homes had been confiscated, they were still willing to donate the Spirit Stones they had stored outside.
Although the donation is not much, isn’t it worth being moved?
"Young masters are really loyal to the imperial court, but there is no need to donate money. This elder is not here to make apportionments."
Ji Changsheng's words made all the princes put down their worries.
It’s better if it’s not divided.
Ji Changsheng continued: "I said, I'm just here to announce the good news. Your Majesty, gentlemen, you were just discussing whether the Spirit Stone from the national treasury can afford to pay the compensation if 'Ru Suo' is cancelled. I assure you that at least Danqing Blessed Land For one family, the national treasury can definitely pay the compensation.”
"Elder Ji, don't make false claims." Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue frowned again and said, "I am in charge of the Ministry of Revenue and know the most about the Spirit Stone."
"Niu Shangshu, you only know one, but not the other."
"What's the second one?"
"Just now, Liumen just confiscated 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stone from Niu Shangshu's house."
Click!
It was a clear day and the sun was shining brightly, and he himself was in the Jinluan Palace, but Niu Shangshu still heard a bolt from the blue.
He subconsciously thought he was hallucinating.
"Elder Ji, can you say it again? I didn't hear you clearly just now."
Ji Changsheng is such a good person. Since Niu Shangshu asked him to say it again, he himself must satisfy the dead man's request.
"Just now, six gates gathered the internal guards, and they just took 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stone from Niu Shangshu's house."
Seeing Niu Shangshu's dazed eyes, pale face, and trembling body, Ji Changsheng knew that Niu Shangshu must be very happy and was very happy for him.
"Niu Shangshu, you have been in charge of the Ministry of Finance for so many years, and you have never seen so many Spirit Stones in the treasury, right? Don't worry, all this money will belong to the treasury from now on. The years of problems that have plagued the treasury's emptiness have disappeared. Cry out. It's not a sin for a man to cry. .”
Ji Changsheng feels that his heart is really kind.
He fully understood Niu Shangshu's ecstatic mood at this time.
"The 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stone alone is almost enough to compensate for the insufficient area of the 'Danqing Blessed Land'. Your Majesty, gentlemen, are you surprised? Hey, Niu Shangshu, you are so surprised that you almost fainted. Already? How is this possible? "
Ji Changsheng raised his hand and poured a burst of void water directly on Niu Shangshu's head to help him wake up.
How could you faint at such a happy moment?
Everyone should rejoice together.
Niu Shangshu came back to his senses and looked at Ji Changsheng with eyes wide open and lips trembling.
"Ji Changsheng, you ransacked my house?"
Ji Changsheng could not allow himself to be blamed for this, and corrected him seriously: "It was Liumen and Neiwei who did it. This elder never does such shameless things as competing with the people for profit."
Niu Shangshu's trembling spread from his lips to his entire body: "Did you really raid my house?"
Ji Changsheng thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Ruchao?"
"puff!"
Niu Shangshu was so angry that he vomited blood.
"If enough", is it enough?
He still had something to worry about.
So "like copying", is it copied or not?
Naturally, he had something to worry about.
Moreover, if the figure of 3.7 billion High Grade Spirit Stones was not confiscated, how could it be so accurate?
"Ji Changsheng, you must die a happy death!"
After speaking, Niu Shangshu really fainted.
This time Ji Changsheng did not give Niu Shangshu another awakening spell.
He just sighed softly and said happily: "Niu Shangshu fainted with joy. He has been in charge of the treasury for many years, and he has worked hard without credit. This elder understands his ecstatic mood now and will not care about him. Your Majesty , I am a philanthropic person who does not show blood. Sell me a favor and let Niu Shangshu die a more dignified death - Caishikou Lingchi."
Ji Changsheng, who was kind and charitable, made all the princes and His Majesty shudder at the same time.
The Prime Minister was the first to react.
He is the Prime Minister after all.
The psychological quality is still better than others.
He knew that Niu Shangshu could not be saved.
Thirty-seven billion High Grade Spirit Stones were searched from his home, and Heavenly King couldn't save him even if he came.
"Elder Ji is really compassionate." The prime minister first praised Ji Changsheng, and then immediately drew a clear line with Niu Shangshu: "On weekdays, Niu Shangshu is seen in simple clothes, but I didn't expect that he actually accepted so many Spirit Stones in private. He should be executed by Lingchi .”
Ji Changsheng praised the Prime Minister: "The Prime Minister still knows the general situation and considers the overall situation. No wonder his official position is higher than Niu Shangshu's, and his family property is more than Niu Shangshu's."
The prime minister's heart almost stopped: "Elder Ji, you are joking. I am completely different from a worm like Niu Shangshu."
"Yes, not many Spirit Stones were found at the Prime Minister's house." Ji Changsheng nodded and said, "Only a spirit card from the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce was found from the Prime Minister's house. The Prime Minister's wife explained that there are 9.8 billion High Grade in the spirit card. Spirit Stone.”
Having said this, Ji Changsheng once again praised the Prime Minister: "The Prime Minister's spiritual card did not exceed 10 billion. This is something I did not expect."
The prime minister's face was ashen: "I am a veteran of three dynasties, and my great ancestor personally gave me the iron certificate of the alchemy book. Why do the six gates and the inner guards dare to copy the home of this prime minister? Where is the national law? Where is the imperial edict?"
Ji Changsheng really didn't know that the Prime Minister had such a background.
He is a reasonable man.
So he said to the prime minister: "You want an imperial edict? Then I will ask your Majesty to write one for you now."
