On the hill outside the Dashang military camp, the screams rang for half the night before disappearing...
At the top of the mountain, Kong Xuan loosened his wrists and showed a look of satisfaction... Behind him, Dapeng was lying in the pit covered in mud, his body limp. Only his chest that swelled from time to time confirmed the fact that he was not dead!
"Brother...you value sex over brother..."
With great difficulty, Dapeng shook his arms, raised the bird's head with difficulty, and complained dissatisfiedly to Kong Xuan.
"Ha," Kong Xuan sneered: "What happened today, do you think it would be worse for you if my mother knew about it?"
Dapeng just recalled the consequences if Feng Mu was present at the scene, and shuddered subconsciously...
The Feng Clan has always been arrogant, it is extremely difficult to get married, and the fertility rate is still low... My brother, in the Feng Clan, is a bachelor who has always been in trouble! Now, it is hard to find a wife to be intimate with. If Mother Feng finds out, she will be ecstatic!
But if she knew that she, the younger brother, had ruined her brother's good deeds...
Dapeng swallowed again and looked at Kong Xuan's bird-like face with a flattering smile: "Hey, brother, I wish you and your sister-in-law a happy marriage and a son soon..."
"snort!"
Kong Xuan glared at Dapeng with dissatisfaction: "Stop talking nonsense, since you are here, then go back with me, and I will find a good job for you and make some merit..."
"don't want!"
Before Kong Xuan finished speaking, Dapeng shook his head... Are you kidding? Now that he has you and a sister-in-law, can he still survive? !
"Brother, I have my own plan!"
"You have a plan!" As soon as Kong Xuan saw Dapeng's generous look, his hands couldn't help itching and he wanted to hit him: "Stop talking nonsense and come back with me! If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not... …”
"No! Even if you are my brother, you can't decide my future life!"
Dapeng cocked his neck and turned it to one side, with that stupid tuft of hair on his head, giving him the appearance of an unruly young man.
Kong Xuan gritted his teeth, and when he couldn't hold back, he started to take action again... A gentle voice came from a distance.
"Kong Xuan, children are older and have their own ideas... As parents, we are more about guidance and education. Blind discipline is not good for children."
"Yunxiao."
Kong Xuan turned around, and sure enough, the clouds were slowly falling...
"But you don't know this kid..." Kong Xuan scratched his head and said in an indomitable voice: "He was born into a famous family, and he has both yin and yang... In terms of qualifications, he is not weaker than me at all, but look at him..."
"OK OK!"
Yun Xiao gently patted Kong Xuan's shoulder, telling him to shut up... then walked up to Dapeng, lifted him up, and dusted him off.
"Your name is Dapeng, right? I am your brother's future Taoist companion, Yunxiao."
Facing Yunxiao's gentle gaze, Dapeng felt a warmth in his heart, and his senses were extremely good.
"Sister-in-law, hehe, I'm sorry to interrupt your intimacy with your brother..."
"He's a good kid."
Yun Xiao showed a charitable smile and rubbed Dapeng's hair: "If you have any plans, you can actually tell your brother frankly."
"Sister-in-law, it's not that I didn't say it. Even if I did, my brother doesn't believe that I can succeed!" Dapeng looked at Kong Xuan with resentment... Kong Xuan glared at him, and Dapeng subconsciously hid Yun Xiao complained from behind: "Sister-in-law, look at my brother and scare me again!"
"Okay, Dapeng is tens of thousands of years old, why do you still control him so strictly! You should learn to trust him!"
Yun Xiaojiao slapped Kong Xuan's hand and gave him a lesson.
"That's right! Sister-in-law, you are so right!"
Dapeng echoed from the side, and Kong Xuan was so angry that the veins on his forehead jumped. Did this kid really think that someone was backing him? !
"Dapeng." Yunxiao turned around and looked at him seriously; "I believe you are a good boy, and I also believe you will do great things... I once heard a saying from the King of Human Beings, Dapeng was with us one day. When the wind rises, it will soar up to ninety thousand miles! I hope you will not let down the King of Humans’ regard for you!”
"Seriously? The great merchant king said this?"
Dapeng looked towards the sky excitedly, with stars shining in his eyes!
This is the first time since he was born that someone has spoken so highly of him!
"really!"
Yunxiao nodded heavily... Well, even though he only heard it from his heart, it still counted as something he had said, right?
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I have a plan, and I will definitely help the businessman king win this calamity! Just wait and see the result!"
Dapeng suddenly felt endless pride in his chest, patted his chest vigorously, and strode forward: "Sister-in-law, brother, just wait for the good news of my triumphant victory!"
Looking at Dapeng's satisfied and high-spirited figure, Kong Xuan felt a little uneasy in his heart...
"Yunxiao, Dapeng..."
"Believe in your brother! You are strong. How can your brother be weak when he was born with the same compatriot as you? Give him more trust!"
Yun Xiao patted Kong Xuan's arm and comforted... In front of him, Dapeng's figure became more upright.
However, he didn't notice the slightly strange look in his brother's eyes behind him... Just because after Yunxiao said those words just now, her voice sounded in Kong Xuan's heart again...
Yun Xiao: Let him try and fail! A child will not become sensible unless he is beaten several times!
Yun Xiao: I'm happy to win, but if I lose... Anyway, with you and me here, we can definitely save his life... Only after he completely failed did he realize that what we said was the golden words! Children always need to be beaten and educated by outsiders before they can mature!
Kong Xuan: Madam is mighty!
Yun Xiao didn't refute, but just gently held Kong Xuan's hand... Kong Xuan silently lamented for Dapeng in his heart: Hey, silly brother, your brother has been manipulated by your sister-in-law, do you think you can run away?
Similarly, Qiongxiao and Bixiao, who secretly followed their elder sister to eat melon in the dark, looked at Dapeng's straight back and shook their heads speechlessly... They originally planned to go out to teach Dapeng a lesson, but they also It goes out at this time... This child will be spoiled if it falls into the hands of the eldest sister!
We are in the same boat... I'll spare you this meal! ~
"Qiongxiao and Bixiao, after watching the excitement for so long, it's time to come out!~Hunyuan Jindou!~"
"Ah!~Sister, don't do it!~"
——
Not to mention the love, hatred and brotherhood of Kong Xuan and Yun Xiao's family on the high mountain outside Dashang's military camp... On the other side, the Central Chaoge morning court meeting was held, and Jiang Ziya presided over the court meeting as usual!
"Do you have any memorials to report?"
Jiang Ziya stood at the head of the civil servants, with Li Jing and Wen Zhong on both sides. The three formed the central court cabinet and presided over the affairs of the court when Emperor Xin was not at court.
Well, of course Di Xin is here, it’s just the three of them who have the final say...
In the nine halls, none of the ministers came out, waiting for orders.
Jiang Ziya frowned slightly and took the initiative to call out his name: "You Shangshu, how are the money and grain reserves of the Ministry of Household Affairs? Has the latest season's summer grain tax revenue been recovered from the national treasury?"
You Hun came out: "Money casting has just been launched, and a large number of gold, silver, and copper coins are expected to be promoted throughout Dashang after January. According to calculations by the Ministry of Accounts, the summer grain tax will be withdrawn in the future, and the unified change will be to collect money in the autumn, so as to promote currency . Specific measures will be sent to the cabinet in three days."
"Well... in addition to agricultural tax, commercial tax is also a top priority after the implementation of money! The officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs are a little tired these days, so they will go to the time formation to formulate the commercial tax as soon as possible. Remember, commercial tax is the big one, especially luxury goods Taxes and agricultural taxes need to be reduced or reduced as appropriate until they are eliminated! Everything should serve the people!"
Jiang Ziya thought for a while and provided suggestions for the future work of the Ministry of Household Affairs...
"Don't worry, Minister Zuo, the Ministry of Household Affairs has organized officials to enter the time formation and is studying the amount of commercial tax..."
You Hun nodded in response, indicating that they had been ready for a long time.
"Fei Shangshu, have the results of this year's official assessment been released?"
"It will take a few more days to make statistics..."
"Send it to the Menxia Province as soon as possible, and let the Menxia Province coordinate with the Jinyiwei to conduct an inspection... Big businessmen will not tolerate corrupt officials!"
"Yes, Mr. Jiang!"
"Lu Shangshu, your military department is preparing for war..."
"Shang Shu Zhao, the Ministry of Industry is the top priority..."
Jiang Ziya inquired about the administrative matters of the six departments respectively, checked for omissions and filled in the gaps, and put forward opinions...
After asking about the situation of the six ministries, Jiang Ziya put down the documents in his hands, took a step back, and gave up his position to Li Jing, the right minister in charge of military affairs, and Wen Zhong, the grand master!
"Now let's talk about the war with Xiqi."
Li Jing frowned and said, "Your Majesty has decided on a strategy. He will capture and kill the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chanjiao as soon as possible and lure the saints into battle!"
"Gentlemen, do you have any ideas?"
Lu Xiong, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, was the first to come out: "Prime Minister Li, isn't it inappropriate to directly lead the saints to fight?"
"Indeed," Jiang Ziya also objected: "Although we also have the support of saints, but according to what the king said, in a battle between saints, Tongtian will be against four...even if we now add Taishang, two vs three, but it does not include Jiejiao , Monster Race, our winning rate is only 70%, which is still a bit unstable."
"No, Mr. Jiang, according to calculations a few days ago, didn't the winning rate reach 98%? Why is it only 70% now?"
On the side, Grand Master Wen Zhong looked at Jiang Ziya in disbelief... Can this winning rate be lowered?
"The winning rate of 98% is based on the winning rate of taking away Xiqi in one wave with the spirit guns and cannons, plus the counterattack against Heaven..."
Jiang Ziya explained: "In this kind of war, the saints Tongtian and Taishang only need to entangle the two saints of the original and the west. Yunxiao, Jinling and other quasi-holy war powers can be estimated by entangling Duobao and others. If we only talk about saints In a big battle, the winning rate is only 70%.”
"Mr. Jiang's words make sense!"
Bai Ze also rarely spoke: "Besides, I highly doubt that once the saint goes to war, Dao Ancestor will come forward to mediate!"
Bai Ze's words silenced everyone... Even though they have Nuwa behind them, Daozu's record so far has been too dazzling. No one is sure whether Nuwa can really stop Hongjun!
Li Jing thought silently, thinking about the next strategic layout...
"Although as Bai Ze and Jiang Gong said, various accidents are very likely to occur... but now that the spirit gun and spirit cannon have been successfully debugged, if time continues, I am afraid that Dao Ancestor and Yuan Yu will react."
"Yes, I agree with Prime Minister Li! Daozu is Daozu after all, and his wisdom cannot be underestimated."
On the side, Jia Yue and Jia Shilang also nodded in agreement with Li Jing's opinion.
"Shilang Luo!"
After a moment of silence, Li Jing suddenly looked at the ranks of the engineering corps.
Luo Xuan came out of the queue and looked at Li Jing...
"How long will it take to fully equip the entire army with spirit guns and spirit cannons?"
Luo Xuan thought for a while and calculated silently: "One year! With the unified weights and measures, the production speed has been accelerated a lot. It can take up to eight months to produce and debug enough equipment for an army, and another four months. It’s time for each branch of the army to become familiar with new weapons and tactics!”
"One year... coin promotion, maybe all the efforts will be done?"
Youhun stepped out of the queue and replied: "In up to four months, the coin can be fully promoted in Dashang, and even radiate to surrounding countries and all races in the wild!"
The department of large merchants promotes coins, and it’s not just the internal affairs of large merchants that they are watching!
"I apply to be transferred to the Ministry of Accounts." At this time, Bai Ze spoke: "The King has recorded in his heart that economic war and currency depletion will be one of the most important strategic plans! I am willing to join the Ministry of Accounts and help guide the currency The implementation of prehistoric times!"
Li Jing, Jiang Ziya, and Wen Zhong looked at each other... In the past year, Bai Ze's performance in the court has been initially recognized by everyone, and he has been included in the Voice of the Voice organization... During the exchange of eyes between the three, there was already Decide!
"Good! Bai Ze was transferred to the position of Minister of Household Affairs, and together with Zhao Gongming, he will lead the transformation of currency!"
"good!"
You Hun didn't refuse. With a general like Bai Ze, there would be no problem in converting money into a wasteland!
"Another: Xia Zhao and Xia Shangshu are old and can be promoted to the cabinet and transferred to the position of Grand Master. Jia Yue and Jia Shilang are promoted to the position of Shangshu. They are mainly in charge of education and the ideological work of unifying the army!"
"no problem!"
Jia Yue nodded... In today's Dashang, everyone is looking forward to the day of promotion. The so-called promotion is not an honor, but more of a responsibility! Naturally, I don’t feel much joy, I just feel my shoulders are heavy and I have another responsibility!
"The rest of the ministries will proceed according to the plan at the beginning of the year! Remember, even if a war breaks out in a year, we must not relax our domestic development! Dashang is our basic base and cannot be compromised!"
"We obey the order!"
The ministers responded... Li Jing looked at the Military Aircraft Department and the Ministry of War again!
"The Ministry of War issued an order to transfer Huang Feihu, Er Lai, Zhang Kui, Zhang Guifang and other generals who can lead troops back to the center to cooperate with the Ministry of Industry to practice new weapons, train new soldiers, and prepare for the war!"
"yes!"
Lu Xiong, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Deng Jiugong (newly appointed), Commander of the Military Aircraft Department, responded in unison.
"Finally, we need a new batch of generals who can fight on the front line... Moreover, our descendants who stayed in Chanjiao to ward off disasters should also come back."
Li Jing thought for a few seconds, then raised his head and looked towards Menxiasheng...
"Shizhong Yang, are you willing to go to Xiqi?"
"I have my wish, but I don't dare to ask for my ear!"
Yang Jian smiled slightly and stepped out of the queue: "I am a real disciple of Yuding. Now that the battle between Dashang and Xiqi is urgent, it is time for me to return to my original position and assist Xiqi in the battle!"
"Well... I won't go into details about the undercover details. Based on your experience in taking charge of Jinyiwei over the years, you must have more experience than me... The only mission of this trip is to gain the trust of Xiqi and penetrate inside. Try your best to send Xiqi immortals and generals to the list to clear the way for the battle to attack the sky in a year!"
