Fan Chixiu from the city was having a meal, and the table was full of delicacies.
Even in the Fan family, she had never enjoyed such treatment.
This greatly satisfied her vanity.
She was savoring a bowl of soup when she suddenly looked up.
She stretched out her hand, and two communication talismans fell into her hands.
After hearing the contents of the communication talisman, a smile appeared on her face. She finally had the opportunity to step onto the stage of the imperial city.
He waved his hand to let the servants leave.
She sent a message to Chen Shiyan, "Just stay there, let someone use a formation to block the strange phenomenon, and I will take care of the rest. I won't treat you unfairly. Maybe after this matter is over, you can pursue your sword path."
Whoosh~
A blue-green trail quickly disappeared from sight.
In the prince's residence in the capital city, the ninth prince was handling some official business.
The eunuch came closer.
"Your Highness, the Inspector has something important to present to you."
"Let him come over."
Soon, a monk in armor came over.
"Your Highness, someone below sent me a letter saying that something strange has happened in Qianyuan County. It is suspected to be a relic or a secret place."
"Arrange someone to investigate."
"Also, we received two communication talismans from the outer residence."
The Ninth Prince stopped his work and raised his head.
"Bum Chi-su?"
"Your Highness is very observant. It is indeed her."
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry about her."
"yes."
The Ninth Prince continued to concentrate on handling the official business of the case, as if he was very attracted to it.
In the government office in the prefecture not far from the Ninth Prince’s residence.
Huang Shangshan is talking to his colleagues.
Suddenly, as if he sensed something, he laughed and cursed a few words, then walked out.
There was no one around, so he waved his hand and a communication talisman appeared in his hand.
"Master, a strange phenomenon has appeared in Qianyuan County. We don't know whether it is a relic or a secret place. It has been blocked by monks from the government. We will find a way to get closer and report it then."
Huang Shangshan, with his hands behind his back, stood under a tree, looking at the sky.
"So you already knew about the situation there, right? I just don't know what you are planning."
"And that kid from Qianyuan County, I can hardly bear all the rumors. How can you still be at ease as a county magistrate there?"
"Do you really want me to end up like this?"
Huang Shangshan is a little worried now. He really doesn't want to have anything to do with the fight for the throne.
It's too dangerous.
But now he is the victim and has every legitimate reason to file a complaint.
The ancestor has urged him twice, and he is anxious. Originally, it was Chen Shiyan who was going to show up, but now the boy seems to be happy to do so.
"Alas, once we take that step, there will be no turning back for our Huang family."
He planned to find time to talk to the ancestor again.
......
Chen Shiyan soon received a jade message from Fan Chixiu.
Then he fell into deep thought in the inner court.
Should he do as Fan Chixiu asked?
As for the big pie that Fan Chixiu painted, he couldn't eat a single bite of it.
The secret ruins represent opportunities.
Where there is opportunity there will be struggle.
Where there is struggle, there will be life and death.
This is a vortex of right and wrong.
And he, his Qianyuan County is at the center of this vortex.
It's impossible to go to secret ruins. He just wants to collect taxes. Collect taxes?!
“Master Taishui is right, this strange phenomenon does need to be covered up.
But there is no need to keep it secret from others. I guess some monks nearby already know about it.
It’s not enough, we need more monks.
Make Qianyuan County a "tourist attraction".
Maybe I can make some money, and then I can just wait quietly for the secret ruins to reveal their true colors, and then those big shots will fight for them."
The more I thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.
Smack your lips.
What secret realm, what ruins, so illusory.
There would be countless cultivators fighting for it, and in the end it’s hard to say whether the things inside are worth spirit stones.
It’s not that there are no ruins that are empty when opened, and the secret realm is also lifeless.
It’s not as cost-effective as charging admission fees.
The plan worked!
He immediately went to the main hall and asked people to call Dou Zhengyuan, Wu Guiming and Yin Shiqing over.
As for Lu Xing of the Department of Rebirth, he could not order him around, although he was nominally under his jurisdiction.
But in fact, the Secretary of the County's Rebirth Department was directly appointed by the Prefecture's Rebirth Department.
He has a special status in the imperial management system and is only responsible for dealing with the affairs of dead monks. He is never interested in other tasks.
"Sir." Dou Zhengyuan's shout interrupted his thoughts.
"Now that we're here, let's cut to the chase."
"In the secret place or ruins..."
"Sir, there are ruins over there. We just asked the formation master to explore it." Dou Zhengyuan interrupted Chen Shiyan for once.
"Yes, that's the ruins. Dou Zhengyuan is in charge of setting up a large-scale formation to block the strange phenomenon."
"Sir, we may not have enough manpower."
"Wu Guiming, give him spirit stones and find some third-level formation masters from the county city. Don't be afraid to spend the spirit stones. I only have one request. The concealing formation is just for show. The focus is on the defensive formation and the psychedelic formation."
"Yes, sir." He didn't quite understand the county magistrate's order.
Shouldn't concealment be the most important thing?
"Wu Guiming, from now on, all outsiders entering and leaving the county will be charged a head tax of 500 spirit stones.
The prices of the courtyards and chain repair rooms rented out by the government have all been increased. Well... let's double them first.
Please notify all shops related to fighting, such as elixirs, spiritual weapons, formations, and talismans, and ask them to raise prices. I will personally set the specific increase, and you will notify them when the time comes.
Then make a batch of identity symbols and give them to the monks who enter the city. Those who hold this symbol can stay in Qianyuan County for a month. "
"Yin Shiqing, please note that if you want to form a team of monks who want to sign a contract with the government, you will need to pay 100 to 1,000 spirit stones. You can make the arrangements yourself.
In addition, we will issue some tasks and divide the areas. We will patrol around the island. If we see foreign monks, we will notify the tax collectors to collect the landing fee, 50 spirit stones a day, and give them a one-time identity token. "
"The above only include those below the Jindan level. I can't beat you masters at the Jindan level!"
"Okay, let's do it quickly. Zhengyuan, stay for a while."
"grown ups."
"You have the most important task. I will give you permission to connect to the county's formation. If there is any problem, use your seal to activate the formation. I will know that you have something wrong and I will handle it."
"Remember, the illusion array and the defensive array are very important. You must arrange them carefully. Let me know when they are completed."
"As you command, I'll go to the county town to ask for help."
"There is one more thing. Ask your family to find some people to spread the news that the ruins were found in Qianyuan County. Tell me more about it."
"Sir, there are too many monks coming. If we do this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to control them."
He knew the purpose of the county magistrate's several orders.
The purpose is to make some money from the ruins, but this thing has angered the public.
"I have my own plans, just do it, and you will benefit from it."
"clear."
Of course Chen Shiyan knew that he had angered the public, so he could only make a fortune before the ruins were completely unveiled.
As for whether the Jindan Zhenren and Yuanying Zhenjun will come, it depends on the situation of the ruins. They will definitely not come in the early stage.
When those big guys come, he will just stay in the county town.
While Chen Shiyan was taking action.
Cheng Qian was not idle either.
He concealed his face and found some ordinary people, asking them to spread the news that the ruins were discovered in Qianyuan County in the city.
It will probably take about ten days or half a month for a cultivator to actually go there and verify it.
It will be ready by then.
After finishing this matter, Cheng Qian sat in the courtyard and ate barbecue.
A glass of spirit wine.
"I don't care what your plans are. If you disrupt my plan, no one will be happy. You don't want too many people to know? I will just spread the news all over the city."
"Ruins? If you want to go in, you have to look at my face. If you want to come out, you have to look at my face too."
Before Cheng Qian came back, he made an appointment with the owner of Yunfu Pavilion.
We have a big deal to discuss tomorrow.
