In this system, the points spent are doubled every time you refresh.
After refreshing for the tenth time, you need to spend 100,000 points to refresh it once, but what you get out are all good things with high points.

"Empty the mall!"
Li Xiao immediately chose to buy them all.
Although everything is not cheap, I can't help but have a deep relationship with Ningyun. I'm not afraid of running out of points at this speed. Moreover, Ningyun will be promoted to princess soon, and the multiplier for points earned will increase again.
I originally wanted to bring out some fireworks, but I didn’t expect to find other good things.
Needless to say, the first item is that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Railways connect the entire Ming Dynasty, and it will be convenient to transport supplies.
There is also a very crucial point: Why was Genghis Khan, a genius of his generation, able to reach Europe and reach such a distance, but was unable to occupy other countries?
It was because transportation was inconvenient in ancient times and the mountains were high and the emperor was far away, making it impossible to manage.
In the age of cold weapons, the land of China was absolutely strong, and the land of China had been constantly fighting for thousands of years. The ancients had already practiced countless war skills.
Napoleon secretly learned the art of war from Sun Tzu to become so awesome.
Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty also has the strength to conquer Europe. The cavalry and crossbowmen can beat those stupid knights wearing heavy armor with fancy tricks.
But no emperor would do this, because after the war, it would be impossible to transport supplies back that far, and there would be no way to control it. It would be a thankless task.
But it would be different if there were trains. Then we could continue to expand our territory and gain access to countless resources. The Mao Xiong side, now called the Principality of Moscow, is very rich in coal mines, oil, and natural gas.
North Korea also has a lot of iron ore, copper ore, and oil.
India also has a lot of coal.
In short, with the railway, it makes sense to expand the territory.
Resources are being pulled back in large quantities.
In the future world war, what is the purpose of fighting?
One is to seize colonies and develop rapidly, and the other is to seize resources. Of course, there are other factors such as ethnic hatred, but they are not the main ones.
Can’t use many resources?
It doesn't matter, just occupy the land first, you will need it one day.
We still have great faith in our father-in-law's ability to fight.
The second item of fireworks doesn’t require much.
It's just for viewing and proving national strength, it's not of much use.
The third item is awesome.
A thousand white-feathered chicken eggs can hatch a thousand chicks. Eggs lay chickens, chickens lay eggs, endless.
Nowadays, Ming Dynasty's native chickens grow meat too slowly, and it takes half a year to eat meat.
But this white-feathered chicken is different. The coat color is mainly white, the feathers are soft and smooth, the body is larger, the meat is tender, nutritious and delicious.
The most important thing is that it can be released in one and a half months. If hormones are used, the product will be released faster. Of course, Li Xiao thinks it is better not to use this thing.
In short, with this thing, when I return to Peiping, the chicken farm should come into play.
The increase in productivity means a decrease in prices. Just like the previous textile machines, the price of chicken has been driven down so that people can eat meat and supplement rich nutrition.
"Wonderful."
This was the first time that Li Xiao felt the benefits of refreshing the system multiple times. He had never tried it before because the points cost for refreshing were too high.
"How about striking while the iron is hot and brushing it again???"
Thinking like this, Li Xiao refreshed the items again.
This time, you need to spend 200,000 points to refresh it once.
Soon, Li Xiao was stunned when he saw the items that had just been brushed out.
[Items refreshed in the system mall today:]
[1. In your country, a person of Suhui will be born, a famous general of the Han Dynasty: Huo Qubing. Consume 35 million points. 】
[2. In your country, a man of Suhui will be born, a famous general of the Qin Dynasty: Wang Jian. Consume 28 million points. 】
[3. One life extension pill can increase your life span by ten years. Consume 80 million points. 】
[Consume 40W points and continue to refresh items. 】
[Current points: 520W points. 】
"Wori, refreshed to the eleventh time, are the things that appear already so terrifying??"
Li Xiao was stunned. He couldn't afford it.
I’m so greedy, but I can’t afford it.
"Let's just strike while the iron is hot and see if we refresh to the twelfth time and see what other incredible things appear. I know I can't afford it, so I just watched it to satisfy my eyes."
This is the first time that Li Xiao has not had enough points.
With this in mind, Li Xiao continued to click refresh, this time spending 400,000 points.
After the refresh ended, Li Xiao looked at it again and was completely stunned.
This time I was really stunned! ! !

"I'm sorry, system. I was abrupt. Goodbye!!"
After Li Xiao closed the system mall, his little heart couldn't bear it.
The points spent later are terrifying, simply an astronomical figure.
But the effect is too strong
Li Xiao couldn't imagine what kind of horrific changes these people would bring about when they appeared in the current Hongwu era. The Ming Dynasty might really be proud of the world.
What is most important these days?
Of course it is talent, talent!
It’s true that I have so many good things.
But it is simply impossible for one person to do everything.
It is true that Zhu Di can fight, but he is only one person. He does not have three heads and six arms, and he cannot conquer the world.
Only with the help of these talents can a great dream be realized.
A song suddenly appeared in Li Xiao's mind: The whole world must learn Chinese dialect. Confucius' words make the world listen carefully.
In the past, Li Xiao felt that scoring points was of little use to him, but now.
"Ningyun, I miss you a little."
Li Xiao covered the two of them with a quilt.
Zhu Ningyun smiled shyly, thinking that the couple would get tired after living together for a long time, but it turned out that Xiaolang still loved her so much.
"Xiao Lang"
"Love you."
"I love you more."
These days,
Li Xiao spent the whole day with Zhu Ningyun.
Practice the Love Sword, or go shopping hand in hand, or paint together, write poems, go hunting together, in short, Li Xiao comes in different ways.
"Xiaolang, are we a little too tired of being like this?"
After a few days, Lian Ningyun felt a little tired again, and Li Xiao also found that the efficiency of points acquisition was declining.
"Sure enough, love still requires a little distance. It's because I'm a little utilitarian, so let's do it as before."
Li Xiao said to himself silently.
It's true that I love Ningyun, but even if two people fall in love, it won't work if they get tired of being together all day long.
"Why haven't you seen your father-in-law and Gao Chi come back these days?"
Li Xiao suddenly asked.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu came back from outside with a satisfied look on his face and said: "Dad and eldest brother have moved to the East Palace and are not the same as us. I went to see them yesterday and their eyes were black."
Li Xiao said hello and asked, "Gao Xu, what have you been doing? Are you feeling refreshed?"
Zhu Gaoxu twisted his neck and said: "You don't know, right? There is a new one called 'Blind Massage' in the city. It costs twenty taels of silver and half an hour. Oh my God, I just tried it. It's very comfortable, and my muscles and bones are numb." Once it is loose, those blind people will touch the acupuncture points and have routines, saying it is a traditional Chinese massage."
Hearing this, Li Xiao and Zhu Ningyun's eyes lit up. They didn't expect that the emperor's grandfather could do things so efficiently. In just a few days, he had already opened the business and received training and work.
Li Xiao asked: "How is business?"
Zhu Gaoxu said: "Business is so good that I joined the team because of my status as the King of Han Dynasty, otherwise I would have to wait for a long time. Not to mention, those blind men are really good, and they are much more comfortable than the maids in the house."
Zhu Ningyun smiled slightly, looked at Li Xiao and said: "Xiaolang, it's all thanks to you that those poor people have been saved."
Li Xiao smiled and nodded.
Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu was stunned, and then said in surprise: "Brother-in-law, is this your business? Wow, that's very profitable. Two taels of silver for half an hour, four taels for an hour, three hours a day, that's twelve taels. There are more than a hundred blind people there, so that’s one thousand, two hundred taels. After excluding the cost, you can earn one thousand taels a day. That’s thirty thousand taels a month. Brother-in-law, let me buy a share."
Since following Li Xiao, Zhu Gaoxu has become more clear about settling accounts.
Li Xiao: "That's your imperial grandfather's business, you go and invest in it."
Zhu Gaoxu: "Then forget it."
Li Xiao: "."
A few people returned to the room and sat drinking tea. They were so bored every day and had nothing to do.
"By the way, brother-in-law, tomorrow is the ceremony for dad to be crowned prince."
Zhu Gaoxu took a sip of tea and asked, "Have you finished the fireworks?"
Li Xiao nodded: "It's done. It's in the room. You can pull it with me tomorrow. You have to use a carriage to pull it. It's too big. I can't move it alone."
Zhu Gaoxu said: "That's good, brother-in-law is brother-in-law."
Li Xiao said: "That's not true."
I thought to myself, fortunately, I spent some time in the past few days to go to the fireworks workshop twice, so I shouldn’t be noticed.
Several people had lunch.
In the afternoon, a eunuch came to summon them and asked them to enter the palace and have dinner with the Holy Master.
In the afternoon, we walked towards the palace.
Also take a look at Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi.
Entering the Yangxin Hall of the Imperial Palace, the first thing Li Xiao and others saw was that Zhu Di had a sad look on his face, and Zhu Gaochi seemed to have lost some weight.
Obviously, he must have suffered a lot these past few days.
Only Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on the recliner next to him, smiling nonstop.
"Okay! Okay. I didn't expect that a small blind massage could be so profitable."
In the past few days, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer had to worry about state affairs. He took care of the matter personally and very quickly. He directly purchased several shops and asked the imperial doctors in the palace to personally train the blind men with Li Xiao's acupoint maps.
The blind men were all very willing to do so when they learned that they would have clothes to wear, a house to live in, and food to eat.
There are old and young blind people, and most of them are young people. After all, the old blind people with poor health are either fortune tellers, or they have died of starvation or illness long ago.
After these people had eaten enough, they still had some strength, and they all studied very hard.
It is true as Yao Guangxiao said, they are very sensitive to touch and are particularly good at grasping the acupuncture points of the body. In five days, they have almost learned it.
On the first day of business, Zhu Yuanzhang asked all civil and military officials to spend money.
Although it was expensive, hundreds of officials went there, and the effect spread immediately. How could there be a poor person who could make friends with court officials? Business was booming on the third day.
It is a good place for socializing. Once the room is closed, several people can enjoy massages, chat and discuss business. This way of socializing suddenly becomes trendy.
Coupled with the blind massage sign, it makes people feel very high-end and classy. Zhu Yuanzhang even mentioned it with his own hand, so the business will be even better.
Zhu Yuanzhang now looked at the accounts. After excluding the expenses and the remuneration to the blind, as well as the profits taken by the merchants, a net profit of 500 taels of silver was recorded in the account every day. How could he be unhappy?
If the income of five hundred taels of silver is stable every day, there will be 180,000 taels of silver a year.
You know, the current annual tax revenue of the imperial court is only 20 million taels. Money is needed for clan, administration, military expenses, river works, and relief.
"Hey, Li Xiao, you're here, your method is wonderful!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Li Xiao coming, he waved his hands excitedly and said, "Not only did the court get a sum of money, but it also solved the livelihood problem of a group of blind and deaf people. Not bad!"
The words fell.
Zhu Di looked at his son-in-law.
Emotional father had a happy day today, all because of Li Xiao's method.
He looked at Li Xiao and said: "Son-in-law, think of this method more. If you are not a family, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. This court wants money everywhere. It would be good to have an extra tael of silver in the account. I just want to go to the north." Yuan. We need to raise military expenses."
Zhu Di felt that he couldn't sit still and was exhausted, so he decided to let the emperor's grandson supervise the country and fight the war himself.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Di angrily and said, "Stop talking nonsense and do your job too slowly. You won't be able to eat in the afternoon."
"Oh" Zhu Di lowered his head and continued to correct the memorial.
Li Xiao smiled and suggested: "Your Majesty, why not find a few people to help His Royal Highness, otherwise it will be too tiring and hard work."
Hearing this, Zhu Di was moved to tears. Only the son-in-law's words are more effective. The son-in-law still cares about the orphan. My daughter did not marry you in vain.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "What ideas do you have, please tell me?"
Li Xiaodao: "We can set up an organization called the 'cabinet' and invite some bachelors who are good at handling government affairs to provide opinions, but we won't give them real power. They can just make up for any aspects of national government affairs that have not been considered." . This way His Highness the Crown Prince can feel more relaxed. Otherwise, it’s not a good idea to work so hard all the time. Sooner or later, your body will be exhausted.”
Zhu Di's eyes lit up and he stood up suddenly: "This is a good idea!"
Zhu Yuanzhang also thought for a moment and said: "You mean, he has the name of prime minister but no power of prime minister?"
Li Xiao cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty's words are sharp and clear."
Upon hearing this,
Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi both held their breaths
After waiting for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and refused: "No, it is up to us to decide the country we conquer. How can we let others get involved? Moreover, as time goes by and generations go by, if the grandchildren are not useful, this cabinet will be useless." They can still wield power."
Hearing this, Li Xiao deeply admired Zhu Yuanzhang's foresight.
He could actually predict what would happen next.
Of course, the cabinet has its good and bad qualities. The bad thing is, as Zhu Yuanzhang said, the cabinet will exercise power.
Later emperors in the late Ming Dynasty often did not meet with the cabinet and left matters to the eunuchs, who gradually gained power. In this case, if the cabinet bachelor wants to do something, he must first collude with the eunuchs, and he can still achieve his goal. Zhang Juzheng is the representative.
Upon hearing Zhu Yuanzhang say this.
Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi are like deflated rubber balls. This may indeed happen in the future, but it is true that they are tired now.
In the evening, the family sat around the table to eat. Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little sorry for Zhu Di. He gave him a holiday because he would have to attend the conferment hall tomorrow.
Good guy, when Zhu Di walked, he was faster than a rabbit, for fear that his father would regret it.
That night, Zhu Di finally had a good sleep.
Fast forward to the next day.
At the beginning of the conferment hall, Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu also attended in court uniforms.
In the conferment hall, the Ministry of Rites performed a solemn ceremony. Under the gaze of all civil and military officials, Zhu Di knelt down on one knee, and Zhu Yuanzhang put the crown prince's golden crown on him.
"The foundation of the country has been decided. Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"God bless the Ming Dynasty forever!"
As all the officials shouted, the prince was truly recognized in terms of etiquette!
Tweet, Tweet, Tweet, Tweet——
The sky is colorful.
It was the sound of fireworks starting to set off.
Even though it was daytime, the colorful light was still vivid, and everyone's pupils reflected this magnificent scene.
When the fireworks bloom, they seem to light up the sky. Red fireworks are like fire and blood, as well as gold, silver, purple and other colors of fireworks. They interweave and collide in the air, forming a gorgeous and colorful scene. picture scroll.
Pieces of brilliant sparks intertwined into a magnificent picture.
Just like thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, beautiful mountains and rivers.
All civil and military officials looked towards the sky and were deeply shocked by this scene.
Everyone watched intently, and the shock in their hearts was clearly visible.
"It's really the pinnacle of fireworks. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you won't be able to experience this magnificent scene."
Zhu Yuanzhang was fascinated by it and murmured to himself.
At the same time, a seed was sprouting in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, which was the progress in skills that Li Xiao had told him about in that sworn courtyard.
The advancement of skills can really bring about endless changes.
More than 20,000 fireworks combined to form a picture.
Finally, a dozen big characters stayed in the sky: [The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always be there, the Ming Dynasty will always be there]
A miracle appears like a miracle!
Who could have imagined that writing could actually appear in the sky!
"Oh my God, is this a blessing from God to Ming Dynasty?"
"This is an immortal descending to the earth. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been granted the title. God has given you a reminder!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is truly the unchanging cornerstone of our Ming Dynasty!"
Civil and military officials have never seen this magical phenomenon.
Everyone thinks this is God's masterpiece.
The ancients had some feudal superstitions. Liu Bang killed the White Emperor, so he became the emperor. But now that Zhu Di has been granted the title, writings appear in the sky. Seeing this with my own eyes, it is like destiny!
Li Xiao looked at this scene with emotion and looked at his father-in-law Zhu Di.
Father-in-law, my son-in-law is happy for you.
Thousands of years later, when future generations mention you, you are no longer a thief of the country. You have truly stood up and been recognized by everyone! !
This is the glory you, Emperor Yongle, deserve!
Seeing this scene in front of him, Zhu Di was full of heroism. He drew the prince's sword and shouted: "The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always be there, and the Ming Dynasty will always be there!"
Civil and military officials shouted: "The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always be there, and the Ming Dynasty will always be there!"
The sound resounded through the clouds and penetrated the sky!
Historians from far away found that no matter how clever they wrote, they could not record the shocking scene before them.
In the end, I could only write down a few words: The ceremony of Zhu Di being crowned crown prince attracted everyone's attention. It was destiny. On that day, a miracle came from heaven, announcing that the Ming Dynasty would last forever!
This should be the most impressive scene in history when a prince was granted the title.
Farther away.
Li Xiao took out his smartphone, pointed it at this scene, and recorded the whole process.
I thought to myself, when my father-in-law gets old, before he dies, I will show him the glorious days of his past, so that he can have some memories.
Isn’t this the role of the camera, to keep all the beautiful moments?
"Hey, brother-in-law, show me what you have in your hand."
"It's nothing, kids don't understand."
"Why are you putting it in your pocket? It's definitely a treasure."
"Gao Xu, don't touch the machine."
"Chicken? What kind of chicken? Look at it~"
After the ceremony for Zhu Di's conferment, it was Zhu Gaoxu who was conferred the title of King of Han.
The scene was much smaller.
Li Xiao casually spent 300,000 points to create a small firework to fool him.
Zhu Gaoxu had been looking forward to it for a long time, but in the end, only the word "Han" for King of Han came up, which made him a little disappointed.
Li Xiao explained that this man was not a simple man and represented the entire nation, which restored his spirit.
Zhu Gaoxu's title of vassal king meant that he was returning to Peiping, and the same was true for Li Xiao.
Because Zhu Gaosui was too young, he had to stay in the East Palace and wait for Zhu Di to ascend the throne before he could be crowned king.
In short, the family is leaving for a short time.
These days, in order to leave more memories in Nanjing, Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu teamed up to attend the morning court for a few days and took a few more glances at Zhu Di.
After all, I don’t know when we will see each other again this time.
To be honest, everyone was a little reluctant to give up, but there was no way, these were the rules of the dynasty, and Li Xiao couldn't change it.
Li Xiao is the Duke of the country and Zhu Gaoxu is the vassal king, so he is qualified to attend the early court.
It is worth mentioning that when the two went to court on the last day and were about to say goodbye and return to Peking, another major event happened in the court hall, which made Li Xiao stay for a few more days.
In the Yangxin Hall, Zhu Di frowned and cursed: "It's unreasonable. The test questions of the general examination were actually leaked. The officials in the court are becoming more and more bold."
"We must investigate carefully and get to the bottom of everything."
The same is true for Zhu Yuanzhang. He hates corrupt officials the most. The leakage of examination questions must be caused by entanglements of interests.
I'm afraid that many officials from the Ministry of Rites will lose their heads because of this.
"Grandfather, ask your grandson to investigate, and we will definitely get to the bottom of it!"
At this time, Zhu Gaosui stood up and felt that he should do something.
"Gao Sui, I didn't expect you to be so responsible."
Zhu Yuanzhang threw a gold medal over and said: "I will appoint you as the Imperial Guard of Qianhu, go and check it out for me!"
Zhu Gaosui was overjoyed and took the gold medal, "My grandson, do your best!"
It turned out that the examination held by the Ministry of Etiquette this spring was delayed due to Zhu Biao's health.
Later, Zhu Biao passed away, Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, reduced the vassal state, Zhu Yunxi ascended the throne, Jing Nan and other series of things have been delayed again and again, resulting in the conference not being held until now.
The time dragged on for too long, and the test question was leaked out for no apparent reason and was discovered by Jin Yiwei.
At this time, Zhu Di suddenly thought of his son-in-law, looked over, and asked: "Li Xiao, what do you think of this matter?"
Li Xiao thought for a while, since everyone trusts him so much now, let's talk about it.
Before leaving, he wanted to see if he could make any changes, so he said sternly: "It is not good for the country to recruit scholars with bad habits."
Zhu Di: "???"
Zhu Yuanzhang: "???"
Zhu Gaochi: "???"
Zhu Gaoxu: "Brother-in-law is right!"
Zhu Gaosui: "???"
