In the following days, the entire Daxia was running like a giant machine. From the lower-level officials to the top leaders of the major departments, everyone became extremely busy.
The most important responsibility lies with the diplomatic department, and these officials will do whatever it takes to spread the idea to other kingdoms.
Even if they can describe their ideas eloquently and describe how useful and efficient they are, they still cannot successfully open up overseas markets.
Since everyone was used to using the communication talisman, they were not optimistic about the spiritual inspiration that appeared. Even those merchants who were interested in the spiritual inspiration offered ridiculously low prices.
If Daxia gives in, it will suffer a great loss. Therefore, Xia Changan's plan to make money encountered setbacks just at the beginning. This was something she had never expected.
It was another day of court meeting, and Yan Huazhang had no choice but to report the bad news to Xia Changan.
"Your Majesty! Those foreign merchants are really hateful. They are deliberately trying to lower the price, buying from us at a low price and then selling at a high price to make a fortune. Unfortunately, we don't have any big industries in those small kingdoms, so we are completely passive in this regard."
Yan Huazhang's words immediately resonated with the other ministers. Everyone was talking at once, but no one could come up with a useful solution.
The noise of the people in the court made Xia Changan, who was already uncomfortable with too many people around her, even more upset. So she naturally activated the mental intimidation.
The ministers immediately felt a tremendous spiritual pressure, which caused their heartbeats to accelerate and their pressure to increase sharply.
The court, which was originally noisy, suddenly became quiet, and all the civil and military officials knelt on the ground. They were nervous and surprised.
What happened to His Majesty? Why was he suddenly unhappy? Was he disappointed with their ability to do things and was preparing to punish them?
The ministers all lowered their heads, feeling hopeless, and thinking that their careers were doomed. However, Xia Changan's next words surprised them greatly.
"You are all pillars of Daxia. How can you panic when encountering such a small matter? It's just that you can't find a suitable local businessman to cooperate with. Is it worth it for you to be so depressed?"
Xia Changan, who had activated the Human Emperor Immortal State, exuded a confident aura. She only said a few words, and everyone in the court was refreshed.
Yes! It's just that they don't have the right business partners, not that their products don't have a market. Why are they so despicable?
However, without local merchants to help them open up sales channels, how can they open up the market on their own? There is simply no time to make enough money in the short term.
Just as everyone's morale, which had just risen, fell again, Xia Changan continued, "Do you think that relying solely on the power of Daxia, we can't break into the interior of each kingdom in the short term and expand Lingji's business?"
The ministers looked at each other, and although no one spoke, their reactions had already completely exposed their thoughts.
Xia Changan said angrily, "You are all as smart as foxes, but why are you so stubborn in business? Why do you have to cooperate with local merchants? It's just to increase your reputation. Daxia can do it on its own."
"We just need to send some people with superb acting skills and quick minds to the most lively places in the kingdom to show off the benefits of Lingji and increase its popularity. In that way, naturally a lot of businessmen will come to you and beg for cooperation."
Xia Changan said a lot of words in one breath. Fortunately, she had the support of the immortality, so she did not flee in panic. As for the ministers who heard her words, they were all stunned.
To increase popularity? Is this the way to do business? As expected of His Majesty, your brain is better than theirs.
The ministers felt that they had suddenly realized something. Thus, the court meeting of the day was successfully concluded. Everyone dispersed like birds and beasts, and went about their own business.
Xia Changan was left alone, looking disheveled. Are these ministers all workaholics? They were surrounding her just a second ago, but after they got the idea, they slipped away faster than the other.
But it's better this way, leaving her alone is more peaceful, and she can continue to repair the chain.
For more than a month, everything went smoothly. Those ministers no longer came to Xia Changan with sad faces to complain and ask for help.
Xia Changan felt very satisfied with this.
That's the right thing to do. If she were to be asked to handle all kinds of messy things, she would be so busy. The ministers' work abilities are still good, not bad.
Although there have been no major issues that the ministers cannot resolve during this period of time, there are still many miscellaneous small matters.
Every day, Xia Changan had to review memorials that piled up into a small mountain. She seriously suspected that the reason she had not died suddenly was because her cultivation was still decent and she had a strong spiritual awareness. These were very helpful for her to review memorials. That's why she was not overwhelmed by the memorials.
But this was not the job she wanted. She had to spend a lot of time reviewing memorials every day, so she had no time to repair the chain.
She had to think of an idea.
Over the past month, with the operation of the state machinery of Daxia, the school specializing in the study of psychic technology proposed by Xia Changan has been almost prepared.
With this institution, she can gather all the top scholars in Daxia to study ways to combine psychic power with technology.
Then the computer that she had been thinking about for a long time might have a place to go. With the help of computers, the cooperation between the various departments of Daxia would be simpler and faster, and her work would be less stressful.
Well, after the meeting, she will go to the school to inspect it.
Xia Changan had great confidence in the students of Daxia. After all, they were the most knowledgeable elders in the entire Zhongzhou region. In her opinion, with her assistance, it should not be difficult for the elders to work together to tinker with a psychic product similar to a computer.
Maybe because she thought that computers would be developed soon, Xia Changan was in a particularly good mood during the court meeting. For the first time, she did not dislike the large number of people in the court.
The ministers who came to the meeting the next day were all refreshed and rosy-cheeked. Seeing this, Xia Changan raised his eyebrows, thinking that he would probably hear a lot of good news the next day.
Sure enough, after the court meeting began, the ministers reported on their respective work progress one by one.
Someone reported: The task of increasing the popularity of the spiritual machine has been completed. Now everyone in other kingdoms knows that Daxia can refine a spiritual machine that can far surpass the communication talisman.
Someone reported that a large number of merchants from foreign countries had come to Daxia to buy spiritual machines. Daxia raised the price by a large margin. However, even so, the demand still exceeded the supply.
Someone else reported: After more than a month of operation, Daxia's treasury has shown a trend of turning losses into profits.
It's all good news indeed. Xia Changan sat on the throne and smiled, a rare moment.
