Qi Xin returned to Qufu Academy with great fanfare. On the surface, she was holding a banquet to thank her teachers, but in fact, she was telling the Tian family, the State of Lu, and the nearby countries: Yancheng is coming!
In this first batch, the fleet will transport 300,000 sets of mysterious armor!
Among them, 100,000 sets are donated to Qufu Academy, and the other 200,000 sets will be sold directly near Qufu!
Xuanjia is actually just a small thing, just the first batch of donated items.
From then on, the goods shipped by the Yancheng fleet to the Lu State were all labeled as donations.
Asking is a gift donated to Qufu Academy!
Who dares to prevent these goods from being transported openly? That is to go against the entire Qufu Academy!
Study successfully and repay the academy. What a positive topic. Who can stop it? Who dares to stop it?
Does Tian dare?
Is this because the fists of Qufu Academy are not strong enough?
The Tian family will definitely make some moves secretly. It could be an attack by monsters, monsters, or large-scale pirates suddenly appearing. It could also be a water turmoil or a big flood that washes all the ships to the depths of the sea. But it can't be... Tian disagreed.
And Xuanjia is just the first batch of goods, just the beginning!
In the future, in addition to Xuanjia, a large amount of strategic materials such as spiritual rice and spiritual springs will continue to be sent to Qufu of the State of Lu for sale.
The State of Lu may not necessarily buy these things, but the nobles of the State of Lu will definitely buy them.
We don’t expect the Lu State to become excited overnight, but as long as the nobles of the Lu State purchase spiritual rice, spiritual springs, black armor, and training methods for yellow-level Taoist soldiers on a large scale, in the future There are yellow-level Taoist soldiers everywhere in the Lu State, so it's not a big problem.
The strength of the Lu State can be strengthened to some extent, and the strength of the Yan State will also become stronger with the continued support of Yancheng.
These are all used to contain the Tian family and the Qi State.
Of course, these are also negotiation conditions.
As long as Tian's price is high enough, Yancheng will stop supporting Lu and Yan.
Secretly I may continue to support you, but on the surface these are all bargaining chips and can be negotiated.
There are many types of support in Yancheng.
Direct support of materials is only one way of providing assistance to Yancheng. In addition, you can also help issue bonds at the Yancheng Bond Exchange. There are many countries in the world that hate Qi, and there are also many nobles who hate Qi. It is absolutely impossible to expect them to stand up and be hostile to Qi. . But I still have the courage to quietly buy some Yan Guoqi War Bonds, buy some Lu Guoqi War Bonds, and buy some Song Guoqi War Bonds.
With money, you can buy various supplies and train strong soldiers.
To be honest, for large vassal states like Lu, Song, and Yan, there is no shortage of ways to train Huang-level and Xuan-level Taoist soldiers. Even for Xuan-level Taoist soldiers, there is more than one way to train them. But the problem is no money!
In a Xuan-level Taoist army, every soldier must be at least a scholar.
If a scholar only eats meat every day, he can only maintain the minimum consumption.
If a Xuan-level Taoist soldier only eats enough meat, then this Xuan-level Taoist soldier will be useless soon.
Xuan-level Taoist soldiers must eat Lingmi, drink Lingquan, Yancheng cabbage, and drink Yancheng Houer wine, so that they can be considered full. Best of all, you have to wear a set of black armor made in Yancheng, so that it can be considered perfect.
But for such a Xuan-level Taoist soldier, the daily food and drink expenses would cost upwards of a thousand dollars.
The one thousand yuan here is the one thousand yuan after Yancheng increased productivity and allowed Taoists to become producers and workers, constantly increasing output and lowering prices.
This thousand coins includes at least one pair of herbal medicines, which must contain at least a few spiritual herbs. It takes ten kilograms to eat spiritual rice. There are also spiritual springs and various magical weapons used in training Xuan-level Taoist soldiers...
One thousand yuan, this is still the cost price in Yancheng.
In other countries, even ten thousand dollars may not be possible.
Those with money cannot buy large-scale and cheap spiritual rice, spiritual springs, and spiritual grass, let alone those without money.
Materials such as spiritual rice can be bought in small amounts with money, but cannot be bought in large quantities with money. Only a crazy country would export strategic materials on a large scale. Therefore, even now, many countries think that Jiang Hua's brain is somehow wrong. Normally, with so many good things, the first reaction is to sell them to make money. This is crazy for thinking about money!
At least 10,000 yuan a day, which is more than 3 million yuan a year.
This is the cost of basic food, drink, and basic training, but a Xuan-level Taoist soldier cannot be locked up in a military camp all the time. In addition to basic training, there must be large-scale raids, and demons must be eliminated regularly. After practicing, you will see blood, and you will be rewarded during the holidays. A Xuan-level Taoist soldier can easily lose 10 million yuan in a year.
If it were a Xuan-level Taoist force of ten thousand people, it would cost one hundred billion a year to maintain it.
Even Chao Kingdom, which is a disgrace to vassals, has a Xuan-level Taoist army. In order to save money, a Xuan-level Taoist army often only leaves three thousand people in a truly large vassal state. The rest will be replenished before the war. Replenish your tone to 10,000, and then intensify your training.
In normal times, the great princes would raise as many Taoist soldiers as possible, but each Taoist army had a small number of soldiers. Only during wartime will the army be rapidly expanded and trained. Normally, I really can’t afford it.
It is a shame for a large vassal state like the Yue State. In the past, the central government collected less than one trillion yuan a year. With such a poor finance, how many Xuan-level Taoist soldiers could the Yue State support?
But it's different now. The country of Yue has become rich and prosperous!
"That's the thing. These are all bargaining chips. They can be used to negotiate with the Tian family. They can be discarded when necessary, as long as they are valuable."
"So, on the surface, this trip is to rescue the Lu family and negotiate with the Tian family for senior sister. In fact, it is to take the opportunity to trade bonds and expand Yancheng's many goods from the south to the north, enhancing Yancheng's influence."
"Whoever is willing to support Yancheng, who is willing to cheer for Yancheng, who is willing to accept Yancheng's school system and journal system, who is willing to accept Yancheng's weights and measures, and who is willing to accept Yancheng's standards, then Yancheng will support him!"
"Yancheng's support includes providing the opportunity to issue bonds, providing a large number of production and living instruments, and providing world-class agricultural planting technology."
"Yancheng also provides a series of supporting services such as sorting out the earth's veins, slaying demons, moving mountains and reclamating seas, leveling land, creating great plains, and developing large-scale water conservancy projects."
"In addition, Yancheng will also sell strategic materials such as Lingmi, Lingquan, and Yancheng cabbage on a large scale, and provide training methods for Huang-level and Xuan-level Taoist soldiers."
"There are also strategic weapons such as the latest generation Blue Bird, all of which can be sold to the outside world."
"The targets of the sale are mainly weak and small countries."
Hearing this, the farmer who had been chopping wood with an ax couldn't help but sighed and said: "Unknowingly, in your eyes, even countries like Song, Lu, and Yan have become A weak country or a small country?”
The State of Yan is a vassal state with the surname Ji, which has a long history.
The State of Lu was the feudal state of Zhou Gongdan at that time, and it was also the first-rate among many countries. However, this was back then.
The Song State was a remnant of the original merchants. It gathered a large amount of power from the previous dynasty and was considered to have a profound foundation.
But at this moment, Jiang Hua said that these three countries were just flags to contain Qi.
Hearing this, Jiang Hua smiled and said: "Today's world has gone through two changes. Now, it is undergoing a third change."
"Back then, King Wu defeated Zhou and after his victory, Zhou Gongdan governed the world with the method of enfeoffment, enfeoffed the princes of the world, and bound everything with Zhou rites."
"At that time, Da Zhou was the strongest, and the princely states imitated Da Zhou one after another. Whoever was most like Da Zhou would be the strongest."
"At that time, Lu and Yan were undoubtedly powerful countries. Song, as a remnant of the previous dynasty, was also a well-deserved powerful country."
"However, as time goes by, the Zhou rites begin to become unsuitable for this world. The more someone resembles Zhou, the more they will decline, and they will not be able to keep up with the new era."
"So, the first change began. This time, the vassal states began to adapt to local conditions and began to build systems suitable for their own countries. Neither Yan nor Lu followed up with this first change."
"When the countries changed one after another, and King Ping moved eastward, the world entered the era of hegemony."
"Ten thousand years ago, Master, you and your two uncles created the standard of Qi training. From then on, the five realms of Qi training spread all over the world. At that time, the second revolution began."
"The changes this time are mainly about the reform of Qi Refiners."
"For example, the State of Wu met Wu Zixu ten thousand years ago, and then began to reform. After the reform, the annual income soared from hundreds of billions to trillions, an increase of ten times. With money, the national power also changed. It became stronger, so three hundred and fifty years ago, Wu State had the capital and financial resources to explore prefecture-level Taoist soldiers."
"This time around, Lu and Yan failed to keep up with the changes!"
"The failure to keep up the first time caused the Lu State to decline from the first-rate powerful country in the world to the second-rate country. But at this time, due to its size and inheritance, it could barely be called a powerful country. Therefore, the Lu State and the Qi State were still Those who can fight come and go, and although they lose more and win less, they can win occasionally, which is a serious concern for Qi State."
"However, the State of Lu still failed to keep up with the second revolution. Although Qufu Academy is located in the State of Lu, the State of Lu did not make full use of these Qi refiners and did not carry out reforms. Today's State of Lu is not as good as the State of Qi. It is not even a threat. If Qi State is willing, it is possible to destroy Lu State, if Qufu Academy does not take action."
"But even if Qufu Academy is in the State of Lu, now Lu State is occupied by Qi State from time to time."
"The last ten thousand years can be regarded as the second change."
"And fifty years ago, ever since I shouted out the slogan of bringing Taoism into life and put it into practice, this third revolution began!"
"Fifty years ago, the way the Qi Refiners integrated into the vassal states made the Qi Refiners very uncomfortable. The traditional nobles also had a repulsive attitude towards the Qi Refiners at that time. The attitude of the princes towards the Qi Refiners was, It’s also mainly about utilization.”
"Today, fifty years later, the magical tools for production and living are famous all over the world. Yancheng's advanced agricultural technology is the best in the world!"
"Even the most stubborn country will not reject the magic weapons produced by Yancheng, nor will they reject the improved seeds sold by Yancheng, nor will they reject a series of products produced by Yancheng. They only feel that they have no money; they only feel that they have money. Less, rather than simply not buying it.”
Not buying?
Then wait for the country to perish!
"Nowadays, a large number of vassal states have begun to seriously recruit Qi practitioners, instead of just using them as in the past. Even the nobles are beginning to tend to let their concubines and daughters practice Qi. Qi can make money, practicing qi can support oneself, and practicing qi can help the family make a lot of money. Therefore, the direction of the wind has changed."
"The era when nobles and Qi refiners were incompatible has ended."
The problem that Zhang Zifang was once very worried about disappeared.
Of course, this is also because the following countries are in dispute today, and if they do not advance, they will retreat.
If there was only one country in the world today, even if Qi Refiners were of great value, they would be collectively boycotted by the nobles. Because at that time, the nobles did not need to increase productivity or so much spiritual rice. They only needed to ensure that everything remained unchanged for tens of millions of years to maintain their rule.
But who made it possible for there to be so many countries in the world today?
If you don’t make progress, if other countries do, you will be destroyed!
"For example, Yue State has seized the opportunity of the third revolution and its annual income has soared from hundreds of billions to two to three billion, which is comparable to the three clans of Han, Zhao and Wei."
"This is because the reform of the Yue State has not yet ended. Otherwise, the income of the Yue State would be comparable to that of the Jin State in the past. This sounds incredible, but if you think about it carefully, this is when Taoism comes into life, and Taoism transforms into What comes after productivity.”
"A Taoist priest can create at least one million dollars of value every day under the Yancheng system."
"A Taoist priest, under the Yancheng system, can create at least billions or even tens of billions of value a year."
"But if they leave Yancheng's system and let them go back to the past, to the state they were in fifty years ago, who would be willing? No one would be willing!"
"Now, what this disciple wants to do is to go to Donghai Academy and bring as many of the talents that you, Master, you have worked so hard to cultivate for thousands of years to Yancheng as possible. They are wasting too much in Donghai Academy, and they can only go to Yancheng , only then can we fully realize ourselves and have a brighter future.”
"Not only the Donghai Academy, but also the talents cultivated by Qufu Academy and Luoyang Academy over the past ten thousand years, we want them all!"
"This time, I want not only Taoist priests, but real people too!"
Hearing this, the farmer took the ax in his hand and struck the log in front of him: "You decide what to do, real person. Every real person has his own will. You go and discuss with them yourself."
"That's no problem. The key to a real person becoming a great real person is destiny. There aren't many other things here, but the destiny has long been exhausted."
"Everyone in the world says that this disciple is the son of destiny in this era, so I should just treat him as the son of destiny for once!"
