Lu State, Shannan County
Now this place has become a core place of the Lu State. Although the Yancheng Academy has not been located here long enough, the entire Shannan County has prospered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Today, the total population of Shannan County has doubled in a short period of time. From 2.4 million to 5 million today. Even the houses in Shannan County have begun to become valuable.
However, Lin Feng had also seen the world in Yancheng, so he directly stipulated that houses and land in Shannan County could only be rented but not sold.
It can be rented for a long time and has the right to renew after expiration, but it cannot be sold.
To obtain permanent ownership, you must be a real person or the first generation of your family is still alive.
Now, just by collecting rent, Lin Feng can laugh happily every day. This kind of life is really full of hope.
Moreover, after the branch palace of Yancheng Academy was established, it also began to issue tasks. After a large number of nobles and Qigong practitioners arrived, they began to accept the tasks issued by the academy, and the Taishan Mountains slowly began to develop.
The Taishan Mountain Range is still very large, covering an extremely wide area, and the power of the earth's veins is extremely abundant. There must be demons and gods within it.
It's just hard to say whether this demon god belongs to the Tian family or the Lu state, and it may even be neutral.
In short, Shannan County today almost looks the same every day. In an instant, the local nobles of Lu State understood what Yancheng speed is!
In addition, a large number of brothers and sisters were also recruited by Qi Xin and came to the branch of Yancheng Academy to serve as doctors and wine ministers.
In Qufu Academy, you learned knowledge, and you have to thank your master.
The traditional master-apprentice model still widely exists in the three university palaces of Qufu, Luoyang and Donghai.
But here in Yancheng, the library model has already begun.
As long as you complete the task, you can obtain the corresponding permissions and then read the book yourself.
What should you do if you encounter something you don’t understand?
It's simple, pay someone to explain it to you.
If you don’t have money, then read more Yancheng journals. There will always be an issue that will cover what you want to know, so you can spend less money.
As for what to do if you really have no money, are not smart enough, and have no qualifications?
There is a saying that I, the Buddha, do not study but are poor. If you have no money and no qualifications in practicing Taoism, then what kind of Taoism can you practice?
I guess I can only act as an experimenter, mainly responsible for being experimented on. Through this method, you can slowly accumulate some knowledge, provided that your life is hard enough!
Along the way, Sun Bin looked more and more uncomfortable.
Soon, Sun Bin arrived at today's destination, a private room by the window on the second floor of a restaurant in Shannan County.
This restaurant is run according to the specifications of Yancheng, so Sun Bin is quite familiar with the restaurant.
Every restaurant here is equipped with formations, and there are more than one.
After observing for a while, Sun Bin was sure that most of this restaurant was not manufactured in Lu. It was most likely produced in Yancheng and transported here as a whole. Or first complete the production work of each layer in Yancheng, and then transport them layer by layer and put them together in Shannan County.
With the current number of Qi Refiners in Shannan County and their level of mastery of Taoism, it is impossible to mass-produce similar restaurants on a large scale, especially since each one is filled with formations.
Just like at this moment, Sun Bin was obviously sitting by the window on the second floor, but from the outside, there was nothing here, it seemed to be just a simple box with no one sitting.
Even if Sun Bin yells here, the sound will not spread.
Sitting upstairs, Sun Bin poured himself a cup of tea. Smelling the aroma of tea, Sun Bin nodded again: Yes, this is the one in Yancheng. Even the taste of the tea is similar.
But think about it, the tea itself is spiritual tea, and buying it on a large scale means that Yancheng can provide the same variety of spiritual tea on a large scale.
Tea is a spiritual spring, and small-scale spiritual springs are everywhere. Occasionally, you can buy a few kilograms or dozens of kilograms, and you can buy it in any county. However, large-scale spiritual springs, which can be used by 100,000 people every day and have a long-term supply, are sold to the outside world only in Yancheng.
The tea used to make tea is the spiritual spring of Yancheng. The tea itself is also the product of roasting the spiritual tea cultivated in Yancheng. Even the teacups are of Yancheng style. The teacup itself is also a magical instrument, a magical instrument specially used for making tea.
It can ensure that the temperature of the tea is always maintained at a suitable level, it can automatically brew tea, it can deepen the sweetness of the tea, and it can slightly improve the quality of the tea...
Every function is real. It is not difficult to achieve any simple function. As long as a warlock studies carefully, he can develop a magic weapon with similar effects. But at the same time, it is relatively difficult to have so many functions in a small teacup. It requires a lot of attention, which may require a Taoist priest to spend a lot of time and energy to try it slowly.
And this is just a difference above a small tea cup.
Thinking of this, Sun Bin sighed silently in his heart. For the first time, Sun Bin began to think about whether there was something wrong with him returning to Qi.
"The teaching materials in this academy are really good!"
"Besides, I don't believe it. Your family didn't buy the textbooks from Yancheng Junior Academy on the black market in the past?"
"I have bought it. The textbooks from the Yancheng Junior Academy, the descriptions of the breathing method, the elephant fist guidance method, and the visualization method of refining the gods, have reached the point where the skills are almost Taoist. That was the first time I read it When I arrived, I was astonished. I was thinking at that time, if the clan had such high-quality teaching materials when I was studying in the clan, maybe I wouldn’t have had so much trouble when I was born with mana."
"From then on, I always bought the textbooks from Yancheng Academy whenever I could. If I couldn't buy them, I would shamelessly go to others to copy them!"
"Then what were you feeling just now?"
"Of course I have to lament that in the past, the textbooks for this junior academy and all the textbooks for one school year in Yancheng were only a few hundred dollars. If you are a student, you don't have to pay."
"But here in the black market, in our country of Lu, I want to buy a complete set of original textbooks that have not been deleted. It costs at least 100,000 yuan for an academic year! As for Yancheng Junior Academy, the academic duration is ten years, and ten years plus At the same time, the black market must first be complete, and a million dollars is the minimum."
"Many times, you have to owe someone a favor in order to buy a book. Although it's not much, every time you go to someone else's place to copy, you have to bring a gift, so you still have to be grateful."
"This is just a textbook, now Yancheng Journal is also on sale."
"That's not right. In the past, Yancheng opened a shop in the capital, specializing in selling various periodicals."
"Furthermore, the goods in that shop were bought by the nobles of the capital, and ordinary people couldn't buy them. The locations on several streets around that shop were all bought by the great nobles, and ordinary people like you couldn't get in. Any product that appears inside is sold out as soon as possible.”
"How do you think the goods in the black market are exposed? Who do you think runs the black market? To put it bluntly, it is just another harvest of local nobles like us through the black market."
“A yellow-level journal in Yancheng costs 10,000, but on the black market it starts at 100,000.”
"Now, it's good. Yancheng has directly opened a branch palace in Shannan County, and Zhenren Qi is still in charge. Zhenren Qi is already a real person at a young age. Moreover, she is also a disciple of Kong Sheng, with a group of real people and first generation brothers. This time, those nobles finally couldn’t take over all the places near Shannan County.”
"Furthermore, I heard that not only us, but also many nobles from the Qi Kingdom next door are planning to use the roads in Mount Tai to come to Shannan County to purchase goods on a large scale?"
Hearing this, Sun Bin became a little unhappy. However, can such smuggling be banned?
It seems not possible!
The State of Qi used to be the descendant of Jiang Ziya, the Qi State of the Lu family.
Now it is the Qi State of the Tian family.
It seems that the person who calls the shots is either the Lu family or the Tian family, especially since the Tian family represents Qi, especially in today's Qi State. It stands to reason that the Tian family should be able to speak the truth and be the real master.
But Sun Bin knew in his heart that the local nobles of Qi State were always in a state of becoming bigger. The princes of Qi in the past dynasties were more like paper makers.
If we have to say why this is, we probably have to start with the conversation between Jiang Ziya and Zhou Gongdan.
In short, in that conversation, Zhou Gongdan and Jiang Ziya predicted the fate of each other's country.
Jiang Ziya said: One day in the future, the power of Marquis Lu will shift downward. Facts have proved that Marquis Lu has indeed lost his power, and the power of Marquis Lu has been in the hands of the ministers. But in today's era, the power of the prince is controlled by his retainers.
Zhou Gongdan said that one day in the future, the pills of Qi State might be usurped. Wasn't the current state of Qi usurped by the Tian family?
The predictions made by the two great sages millions of years ago have all come true.
Perhaps, these are the real wise men, whose eyes can directly pass through the long river of time, pass through countless historical mists, and see the real end point at a glance.
Therefore, even today's Tian family only has the same control over local nobles.
On the surface, they will definitely obey Tian's order. In fact, if they find out, it will be done by a temporary worker or a servant in the family: this is all the servant's own initiative and deceived me, the master, so I have now killed this servant with the rod.
Then what?
Then I'll be fined with three drinks, so I won't do it again.
Otherwise, what else could happen?
buckle
Hearing the knock on the door, Sun Bin quickly stood up and opened the door, and then saw Qi Xin, the dean of the Lu State Branch Palace of Yancheng Academy.
"Bin has seen the great sacrificial wine."
Qi Xin shook her head directly: "It's better to explain some things clearly in advance. Is today a personal relationship or a business matter?"
"If it's a personal relationship, then you are the academy's sacrificial wine, and I am the academy's grand sacrificial wine. We all knew each other in Yancheng in the past. So it's not impossible to have tea and chat with friends."
Sun Bin bowed his hand in a formal manner: "The person here today is Bin, the general of the Sun family of Qi State, and the purpose of today is peace talks."
