After learning the information he had just received, Lin Mo felt his heart race.

Earn one point per minute; one point equals one person.

If we do a simple calculation, there are 24 hours in a day, and 60 minutes in an hour, that's 1,140 minutes.

In other words, you can gain over a thousand subordinates just by sleeping for a day?

Holy crap, Lin Mo felt completely numb.

In ancient times, population was synonymous with military strength; in the age of cold weapons, it was all about having a large population.

Humans are labor force, capable of production; when trained, they become soldiers, war machines.

The population in ancient times was not like that of modern times. During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the population peaked at 13 to 14 million households, which is 63 million.

The technology of the Xia Dynasty was similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, and its total population was around 60 million.

If this system is calculated, it can acquire 520,000 people per year.

This thing gives birth faster than a sow, which takes over a hundred days to gestate before giving birth.

Furthermore, you can also customize the age?

It's important to understand that in ancient times, technology wasn't as advanced, and raising a child was no easy task.

Even among those born into royalty, many princes died young.

It really is the Dynasty Conquest System.

I glanced at the system and saw that the points mall was not yet unlocked, but the introduction showed that there was an option to exchange military rations.

Lin Mo chuckled inwardly again. In the era of cold weapons, supplies were the first thing to be delivered before the army could move.

Throughout ancient Chinese history, there are countless examples of how the outcome of battles was altered by the availability of military supplies.

The most relatable event was the Battle of Wuchao, where Cao Cao burned Yuan Shao's supplies, thus achieving a victory against overwhelming odds and unifying the north.

At the same time, even without war, food is a country's most important resource.

In ancient times, what did ordinary people work so hard for? Wasn't it just to have a bite to eat?

Due to the lack of advanced technology, in ancient times, when natural disasters caused famine, people would resort to cannibalism.

Back then, for just one pound of grain, teenage girls would willingly marry sixty-year-old men.

The ability to redeem food with points is simply incredible.

So here's the question: how do you earn points? By sleeping!

This method left Lin Mo speechless, "Is this the legendary 'lying down and living a flat life'?"

He was reminded of those trashy game ads on Earth: "Start with a dog, AFK and become a tycoon..."

I shook my head to bring my thoughts back to the present.

"Here comes another question: does closing your eyes count as sleeping, or does it mean you have to be sound asleep?"

At this moment, the system seemed to recognize Lin Mo's thoughts and immediately popped up a semi-transparent option box.

[Would you like to go to sleep immediately?]

"Holy crap, you can fall asleep at this hour?"

Perhaps due to excessive excitement, Lin Mo forgot that he was in the Great Xia Golden Warm Hall.

Driven by curiosity, he clicked "Yes!"

The next second, the Great Xia court was shocked!!!

Because Lin Mo fell asleep without any warning.

And he fell asleep standing up, in a very strange way…

"Minister Lin?" The Empress frowned and said, "Minister Lin?"

The Minister of Revenue, who was standing nearby, panicked upon seeing this, shouting, "Lin Mo, wake up!"

He nudged Lin Mo's body anxiously, but the other man didn't react at all.

"Outrageous!" Li Hu exclaimed angrily. "How dare they sleep in the imperial court! This is utterly lawless!"

As he spoke, Li Hu stepped forward and shook Lin Mo forcefully. "You brat, wake up!"

Another minister couldn't remain calm. He stepped forward and grabbed Lin Mo, shouting, "Wake up!"

Strangely, Lin Mo was like a person in a vegetative state who was breathing; no matter how hard you shook him or pinched him, he just wouldn't wake up!

Upon seeing this, everyone, including Wei Maozhen, was speechless.

What's going on?

I've never seen anything like it in my entire life!

About a minute later, Lin Mo woke up, without any warning!

"Which bastard pinched me!" Lin Mo shouted as soon as he woke up.

Upon hearing this, the court fell into complete silence; you could hear a pin drop.

"Damn it, I'm in the Golden Palace of the Great Xia Dynasty!" Lin Mo realized.

"You insolent fool, how dare you sleep!" the favored courtier cursed again. "What is your punishment?"

Lin Mo thought for a few seconds, then asked in return, "Does the Great Xia law include such a crime?"

"you…"

Silence fell upon everyone again.

Yes, there's no such provision in the law that saying one should be punished for dozing off in the imperial court.

After a long pause, Wei Maozhen finally spoke slowly, "I just asked you, if I were to grant you the land of Shu, would you accept it?"

As expected of the Empress, she can remain calm even in such an awkward situation.

At the same time, you are indeed ruthless.

You give a piece of barren land to the meritorious officials who helped you expand your territory, calling it a reward, but it's more like expulsion.

But now that I have a system, it's actually worked out by accident.

The more remote the area, the better it is for me to utilize the system to develop, train troops, and arm myself.

Then build high walls and store up plenty of grain. Once you are strong enough, attack the capital and demand justice!

Otherwise, if over a thousand people suddenly appeared in a single day, wouldn't they be considered monsters or ghosts?

Lin Mo grinned and immediately bowed again, saying, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Wei Maozhen's expression changed, and he began to scrutinize Lin Mo carefully.

"Why is he happy instead of angry?" Wei Maozhen was somewhat puzzled.

Given the Lin family's military achievements, they could easily incite the court officials to refuse, or at least express dissatisfaction.
