Qiuxiang reported on the learning and growth of a group of children in Zhongfu.
Xia He reported on the progress and advantages of the martial arts realm of everyone in the mansion.
Tang Xiaoshu reported the details of his previous search for martial arts disciples and the disappearance of Chunyu...
Seeing no one stood up and came out.
Zhong Yan looked around and asked: "Is there anything else? No matter what, put forward the requirements and problems at the same time!"
Mrs. Li Yang quickly pinched her son secretly.
But Li Shangwen took the lead.
"Uncle, the child has something to report!"
Zhong Yan looked at him and couldn't help but smile. He hadn't seen this boy's handsome face for a few months and had darkened a lot. "Tell me."
"I heard that the number of casual cultivators in Wangcheng City increased by more than 600, and now the number exceeds 3,200. The cities of Heishui and Shunyi also have more than 500 people. On the contrary, we in Qingyang have the least..."
Wangdi is one of the largest cities in the northwest of the Yan Kingdom. There are more than five million residents in the city alone, and the population of the surrounding villages and towns is nearly 20 million.
Moreover, there is a Xiaofang City in the city, and it is normal for the scattered cultivators from Wei State to gather there.
As for the fact that there are more cities in Heishui and Shunyi than in Qingyang, Zhong Yan knew it was related to the 'Keqing Mansion' after a little thought.
The existence of the Keqing Mansion allowed the casual cultivators in the city to initially form an order, and the restrictions of the rules were naturally not liked by others.
It's not like the monks in other places in the city who can fight for fun even if they disagree with each other.
Accepting new things requires a process.
Zhong Yan dared to conclude that in a few years, as long as the 'Keqing Mansion' continued to exist, the stable order would attract a large number of casual cultivators to flow into Qingyang City.
From this point of view, Qin Ben is very far-sighted and dares to break the rules and try boldly.
In Zhongzhou, which is known as the "Holy Land for Immortal Cultivation", all the vassal states implement the "Ke Qing Mansion" management model. How can it be unreasonable?
"My child heard that there are more than sixty new female cultivators in the Yangquan Feixian Pavilion. They range from the first level of Qi Refining to the sixth level of Qi Refining. They seem to be female disciples from the 'Baihuamen' of Wei State..."
"My child heard that the Fire Cloud Sect assigned five hundred inner disciples to various cities in the sect..."
Zhong Yan raised his hand and said amusedly: "Why are you just hearing about it? Who did you listen to? What's the use?"
Li Shangwen laughed sarcastically, "I've heard a lot about it in the city. Last month I went to Yangquanfang City with Uncle Bai and a few others. I listened to what others said when setting up a stall."
After a pause, Li Shangwen clasped his fists and said seriously: "Uncle! In addition to the Fire Cloud Sect, all the major sects in the Yan Kingdom have made large and small movements. I speculate that there will be major changes and adjustments in the Yan Kingdom's immortal cultivation forces!"
Zhong Yan raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips and thought for a moment, then looked at Zhong Xiaozhong, "Has the news been collected from the cultivation community in Wei State?"
Zhong Xiaozhong: "Sir, Master Wen is right. I will give you a detailed information later.
The Wei Kingdom was currently destroyed by the war because of small sects and small families. The three major sects were not affected, and only some disciples became retinue mages and accompanied the army.
According to the usual practice, after the Wei Kingdom is completely destroyed, the sect will once again support the new country's court. Mortal wars cannot shake the foundation of the immortal sect unless other countries' cultivation forces destroy the sect in a large scale. "
Li Shangwen said: "But now, in addition to the alliance army of our own country, there are also armies from four countries gathered in Wei State. It is definitely impossible to continue fighting. After the peace talks, it will be divided into five parts, at least four parts, with the support of the Immortal Cultivation Sect of Wei State." who?"
"How can the territory that was fought for be given away so easily? The sects of the respective countries must have sent monks there!"
Li Shangwen affirmed, then added with a wink: "It is also possible that... the sects in Wei State will be disbanded and dispersed to other countries to become small sects or small families. The premise is that the sects of the four countries jointly exert pressure."
This guess is bold, but not impossible.
The territory of Wei State is larger than that of Yan State, with a large clan of 30,000 people, which is stronger than Yan State.
But if the four countries unite, the three major sects will naturally be unable to bear it.
The foundation of a sect and a family is spiritual veins, and the basis of development and growth is 'population and land'. The population transports spiritual disciples, and the land provides cultivation resources.
As Li Shangwen said, the territory gained will not be given back.
Zhong Yan looked at Li Shangwen and said with a smile: "You have made great progress, you can actually make such inferences from the mixed information."
"Thank you uncle for the compliment!"
Li Shangwen smiled and asked, "Uncle, which situation do you think is more likely?"
Zhong Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "It depends on whether the three major sects in Wei are strong enough."
He suddenly had a strong premonition - the war in Wei State was likely to trigger a major earthquake that would affect the cultivation circles of several countries.
It evolved to the end...even the current pattern of spiritual forces in the Yan Kingdom has changed!
Zhong Yan couldn't help but glance at Li Shangwen again, but this guy was better than his master, and his analytical ability was better than that of his father Li Henian.
"We will discuss this later."
Zhong Yan took the tea from Jiang Huan and took a sip, then looked at Li Shangwu, "Shangwu has something to say?"
Li Shangwu stood up and clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry to my adoptive father! My son has closed down all the businesses in the city, leaving only thirty elite disciples in the martial arts hall to be trained as retainers and guardians in the mansion."
"Without the large expenses of the martial arts school, the income from several fertile fields in the countryside is more than enough to cover the daily expenses of the whole government."
"My child is going to focus on martial arts first. When he breaks through to the Xiantian realm, he can then do some small business to make a living..."
Zhong Yan nodded slightly, it was quite lawful, but safe enough.
With the family fortune left by Li Henian, as long as he doesn't squander it extravagantly, it will be enough for the next three generations of the Li family to have enough food and clothing.
As for the next step, it depends on future generations, which is in line with Li Henian's last wish to "continue the Li family" before his death.
Zhong Yan looked at Li Shangwen, "What are your suggestions?"
Li Shangwen blinked, scratched his face and said, "Uncle, please give me some advice!"
Zhong Yan laughed angrily, this guy definitely didn't care about the family affairs, otherwise how could he not have any ideas with his intelligence.
However, the two brothers of the Li family now have the eldest eldest brother Li Yang and Li Shangwu in control of the Li family business.
If Li Shangwen participates too much, it will most likely cause internal conflicts and lead to feuding between brothers.
Zhong Yan pondered for a moment and said, "It turns out that the Li family's business in the city was maintained by your father's reputation and strength. Since we lack the confidence in this aspect, we might as well change our thinking."
"Three hundred and sixty, and he will be the number one scholar. Agriculture is the basis of livelihood. The Li family has a lot of fertile land in the countryside, so we can focus here."
"Although grain harvests and rents are not as fast as business in the city, and management is troublesome, the advantage is long-lasting and low cost. Nowadays, a large number of refugees and refugees are cheap labor, and the competition is much smaller than business in the city..."
"In recent years, the weather around Qingyang has been good and the harvest has been good. But just now you heard Xiaozhong say that out of the 127 cities in the Yan Kingdom, no less than 20 cities suffered from famine last year. The people were furious and riots continued."
"The prerequisite for stability is peace in the world. If war comes one day, only by holding food in hand can we not be starved to death and survive..."
Li Shangwu's eyes flickered, and he clasped his fists hard, "Yes, I will remember my adoptive father's teachings!"
It was quiet for a while, and no one spoke anymore.
Zhong Yan looked at the two unfamiliar faces.
Jiang Ping stood up and waved, "Twelve, Thirteen, Yunning, come forward too!"
Then he shouted outside: "Xiaoqing, bring them up!"
Not long after, ten people stood in a row in the hall.
The distinction between Jing and Wei is clear.
Zhou Yunning, Xiao Xuening and the two newly purchased girls from the Marriage Pavilion are all of heavenly beauty.
And the other six refugee slaves bought from North Street, although they were put on gorgeous clothes, their appearance was completely incomparable.
There is no doubt about this.
Ordinary women can't get into the eyes of the Marriage Pavilion, so how can they spend money and energy to cultivate them.
After a brief introduction by Jiang Ping, Zhong extended his hand and pointed at the two of them, and the other four were taken away by Xiaoqing.
"Husband, do you think you should choose a date to hold a wedding banquet..."
Jiang Ping said with a smile, noticed Li Yang's wink, and said: "By the way, there's Jingqiu, come!"
"Husband, Jingqiu is not young anymore, do you think?"
Yu Qingyao kept rolling her eyes, feeling extremely bored and speechless. How many are there? !
