After resolving the two minor issues, a dignified middle-aged man stood before a screen. After seeing the satellite footage of Xu Jiujun's attack, he ordered, "Build a statue of this man!"
"For the admiration of all people!"
"His contributions are enough to deserve a statue in the capital!"
"yes!"
......
After three days, Xu Jiujun and the others still hadn't flown out of this celestial realm. Seeing that the time was almost up, Xu Jiujun said, "If you're tired, find a place to rest."
"I'm tired, I'm going to rest first."
"Don't call me if there's nothing wrong. I'll wake up naturally after I've rested enough."
After Xu Jiujun finished speaking, he performed another trick for everyone: falling asleep immediately.
"Do you think he has to pay a price for being so strong?"
"How do you know?"
"Look, he sleeps when he says he will. Think about it, every time he unleashes those powerful moves, he has to lie down to rest."
"Well... that's possible."
"But you're not afraid of him hearing this..."
"What are you afraid of? I don't want to hurt him." Yin shrugged and said.
At this time, Xu Jiujun's consciousness had returned to his body, and five days had passed.
It was just dawn when Xu Jiujun saw the Yang family busying themselves.
It seems that they are always busy, from sunrise to sunset.
Where did the old fox in the Daohua realm go?
It seems like I haven't seen it since I got here.
His spiritual sense locked onto Nan Yu, who was trapped in her boudoir. She was in tears at the moment.
"Brother Xu..."
"If you were still alive, would you want me to marry Yang Shang..."
Nan Yu's mental state was very bad, and the words "I'm going crazy" were almost written on his face.
"If I really want to marry him...either I die or he dies..."
"Haha, why not just pretend to be nice and kill Yang Shang first!"
"Brother Xu, you definitely don't want me to die in front of this scumbag, right?"
"Since you don't want me to do that either, Brother Xu, I have no choice but to kill him first. However, I probably won't survive..."
"The Yang family is powerful. Since Grandpa is willing to marry me to the Yang family for the sake of benefits, he will definitely not give up the Nan family just to protect me."
"But that's fine, this way I can come and accompany you, Brother Xu..."
Hearing these words, Xu Jiujun couldn't help but shudder and sigh.
Because of a joke, the other party has been holding it in his mind for so long. If I had kept my mouth shut at that time, would this have happened?
[Things have their own laws of development. Fate has made her meet the host, and the host is her calamity.]
If she can't get through, she'll be doomed.
[Whether the host joked with Nan Yu or not, she is destined to fall in love with you. ]
[If Nan Yu had not met the host, she would have been doomed to die the moment she entered the forest.]
[The host changed Nan Yu's fate, and her calamity became the host.]
[So no matter what, the host is Nan Yu's calamity, unless she overcomes it herself, or the host responds to her.]
【This is the end of this calamity.】
"So going to the Holy Demon Realm will be a disaster for me?" Xu Jiujun asked in confusion.
[I can only say that the host himself is a disaster. 】
“…”
"Well..." Xu Jiujun sighed. If that was the case, he would never be able to resolve the matter unless he stepped in.
Xu Jiujun came to the capital to taste the food, but found that the food was ridiculously expensive.
"Wow, boss, you're selling this super fresh shrimp bun for only three spirit stones, why don't you go grab it!"
Xu Jiujun was shocked. Although the extremely fresh shrimp was rare, one spirit stone was enough to buy one kilogram.
I don’t even know if there are two taels of shrimp meat in this bun, but you dare to sell it for three spirit stones.
"These are all super fresh shrimp from the river. The super fresh shrimp from the sea are all polluted and can't be eaten. The ones from the river are all priced this way."
"There are no more super fresh shrimp in the sea now. You think it's too expensive, and I think it's too expensive too."
"......" Xu Jiujun listened to the familiar dialogue and seemed to have thought of something. Finally, he sighed, threw a spirit stone to the merchant, said there was no need to look for it, and ran away, without paying any attention to the merchant chasing him.
Are you kidding? Even if artificially bred ones are that expensive, you still want to deceive yourself. Don’t you understand? There are quite a few of them raised in Zizai Tian.
It was not until Xu Jiujun took a walk around that he realized that this merchant was quite conscientious. He was selling spiritual fruits, and common spiritual fruits at that, at two spirit stones per pound.
After asking around, a young man finally told Xu Jiujun the truth: "It's because the taxes in the capital are too high. Even for vegetable sellers like us, we collect at least 30% tax!"
"Not to mention those who sell rice and spiritual fruits."
"From what I know, at least 40%."
"With these high taxes, prices are also rising. We poor people also want to have enough food. If we don't sell at a higher price, we can only eat one meal a day."
"Even though we sell such expensive food, we only dare to eat it twice a day. We basically don't eat at night, go to bed early, and eat it with breakfast."
After listening to this, Xu Jiujun understood. Regardless of the character of the emperor of the Hongmo Dynasty, at least because of his lack of strength, he could not compete for more resources, and even had to pay tribute to other dynasties in exchange for the stability of the Hongmo Dynasty.
But if this continues, the people of the Hongmo Dynasty will definitely not be happy. If they cannot overthrow the dynasty, the people will definitely leave and live somewhere else.
The Hongmo Dynasty is doomed...
