"Zhao Yun obeys!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to immediately form an army of spear-throwers using the new-style spear-throwing guns, with a number of 5. You must lead this spear-thrower army to diligently practice the 'war roar' tactics. In the future, I will wait to see this army The team shines!"

Zhao Yun bowed his head excitedly and said: "The last general takes orders!"

No wonder he was so excited, the same group of generals with similar qualifications and abilities as him, almost everyone had their own special forces.For example, Li Jing has the Black Armored Dragon Rider, Li Cunxu has the Silver Spear, Dian Wei has the Huben Army, and Huo Qubing has the Yunzhou Lion Rider. Only Zhao Yun has always commanded 30 forbidden troops.Although the hard work is high, it still lacks a little spirit.

And once there is this spear-throwing army, it will be different. This army that has practiced tactics will definitely be the core elite and mainstay of the Wei army in the future, and accordingly, Zhao Yun's chances of making contributions in the future will also greatly increase.

Zhao Yun knew very well that this was the result of Yan Hao's special care for him, otherwise he would not have entrusted him with the practice of warfare this time.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yun said with enthusiasm: "Your Majesty, I must lead the spear-throwing army to practice day and night, to be loyal to His Majesty, to shed blood for the Great Wei Dynasty!"

"Yes." Yan Hao nodded with satisfaction, "In this case, I will give this legion the title of 'Fire Spear', and hope that you will burn the enemy like a fire on the future battlefield!"

After leaving Zhao Yun with the matter of forming the Fiery Throwing Spear, Yan Hao returned to the bedroom, and Li Fuhai came to report that the alchemy materials collected by the local government had been transported to the royal treasury.

Yan Hao rushed to the imperial inner warehouse to have a look, and it was indeed full of various colorful minerals, and there were already dozens of large boxes of strange medicinal materials.

"When collecting these materials, did you take them by force and arouse public indignation?" Yan Hao asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs officials who were supervising the matter.

"Your Majesty, these ores used in alchemy are rare at best, but they are not of high value in the eyes of the common people, so it is relatively easy for the local government to collect them."

"It's just that rare things such as Xueli, Jianzhi, and Yufeng are regarded as rare treasures among the people. Even if the government is willing to buy them at a high price, many people are unwilling to sell them. Therefore, it is inevitable to take some tough measures when collecting them. However, according to His Majesty's instructions, we will compensate those who should be compensated in place, so this matter has not aroused great repercussions among the people."

After hearing this, Yan Hao sighed. Completing this task will inevitably cause some people's dissatisfaction, but he has tried his best to minimize the negative impact. After all, compared with the reward for completing the task, the loss of reputation is not considered. What.

At this time, several system prompts followed.

"Ding dong, the system prompts, congratulations to the host for completing the free task "Searching for Treasures". The reward points are 4 points."

"Ding Dong, since the host has completed all three free missions in the same batch, an additional 20% of the free mission pool points—2.4 points!"

"Ding dong, the system prompts that the host has completed the last free task, and the free task panel is cancelled. The new task panel will be released after the host completes the last phase of the task, so stay tuned!"

Chapter 527 Plantation

Finally, this task is completed!All of a sudden, he got more than 6 points, plus the original 1 points, now Yan Hao has a huge sum of nearly 8 points.This is of course something to celebrate.

The only pity is that the free mission panel has been cancelled, and he will not have any other missions to complete before he completes the stage mission of "Cultivating the Elixir".However, Yan Hao is not very worried about this. As the saying goes, there must be a road to the front of the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. It is impossible for the system not to give him a way to earn points after the update. Free missions and stage missions are cancelled. There will inevitably be new task mechanisms to replace them.

The only thing to be careful is that before the new task mechanism appears, the consumption of each point must be cautious.Points are a life-saving tool for him now. In the face of emergencies, points are the real life-saving straw. This has been confirmed in past experience.

Ever since, Yan Hao did not spend the points in his hand immediately, but temporarily saved them.Now he has 8 points + a beauty card in his pocket, which makes him feel more secure.

As for the completion of the task of "cultivating elixir", Yan Hao has no idea for the time being, so he had to gather together those Taoist priests who looked like charlatans before, and specially built an alchemy workshop with many cauldron furnaces for them Refining elixir.As for whether it will be effective or not, Yan Hao doesn't hold out too much hope, in short, it's good to try.

On the contrary, Yan Hao is more concerned about Zhou Wenbo, an old Taoist priest, but it is strange that he did not show up with his colleagues this time, which made Yan Hao murmur in his heart: "This old guy can't be an editor. Are you afraid of being discovered by me after telling a lie, so you ran away?"

But at this time, there was an exciting news for Yan Hao. Ruan Tong, who he sent to Nanyang to find clues some time ago, returned to Beijing and returned to his mission!

"Ruan Tong, how are you doing with the errand I sent you? Why did you return to Beijing so soon? Did you get nothing?" Yan Hao asked.

However, Ruan Tong beamed with joy: "Your Majesty, we are lucky. After arriving in Jietu Kingdom, I found a familiar rich businessman friend for help. Unexpectedly, I got it from an experienced scholar in his family. The clue is that the martial arts masters of Jietu Kingdom once gave Dawei a Savi bird to a sect called 'Star Luo Valley'. Your Majesty, as long as we can contact this Star Luo Valley, we should be able to get the two-tailed crow. whereabouts!"

"Star Luo Valley?" Yan Hao frowned.

"Yes, Your Majesty, but I have lived in Nanyang for a long time, and I am just a businessman, and I don't know anything about martial arts at all. Therefore, Your Majesty can only leave the following clues to others to find out."

"Well, you have completed this errand beautifully, and I will figure out what to do next." Yan Hao said appreciatively.

Ruan Tong then kowtowed and prepared to leave, but Yan Hao said, "Wait a minute, Ruan Qing, I have something else for you."

"Your Majesty, please order."

"Let's go, I'll take you to a place for a stroll." Yan Hao stood up and said.

The place where Yan Hao brought Ruan Tong was a tobacco and fairy tea plantation near the outskirts of Beijing, and Zhang Feng, the chief farmer, was accompanying him.

The three walked together in the plantation. Zhang Feng introduced to Yan Hao while walking: "Your Majesty, since you ordered your ministers to promote the cultivation of tobacco and fairy tea, I dare not neglect, and built dozens of plantations, most of which are concentrated in the south."

"In recent days, the first batch of tobacco and fairy tea are about to ripen. Those merchants have very good eyesight, and they can see that our two products will definitely sell at a good price, so they have already ordered all the tea and tobacco before they go on the market. It's all gone, and the treasury has received tens of millions of taels of silver in just one month!" Zhang Feng said with joy.

"Your Majesty, as long as we further expand the planting of tobacco and fairy tea in the next step, the imperial court's finances will generate a considerable amount of income in the future!"

Yan Hao nodded slightly. The hot sales of the two products, tobacco and fairy tea, were within his expectation.

A group of people strolled on the edge of the plantation, as far as they could see, the left half was green and densely packed with tobacco, dotted with purple and white stamens, which had a kind of elegant beauty; the right half was verdant tea trees, A burst of strong tea fragrance wafted by the breeze, making people feel like entering a fairyland.

Chapter 528 Star Luo Valley

Immortal tea, it is indeed an immortal tea!Yan Hao secretly lamented that the aroma of this tea is different from the bitterness of oolong tea, the mellowness of Longjing tea, and the thickness of black tea, but it also has the characteristics of these teas, with a unique and intoxicating fragrance.It's no wonder that this kind of tea will be looted by merchants. As long as they resell it to remote areas or even overseas, they can immediately reap doubled profits.

"What are they doing!" At this moment, Yan Hao saw two guard-like people sitting outside a pergola, holding a gray pipe to their mouths, and puffs of smoke rose.

Zhang Feng said: "Your Majesty, the people who take care of the Tobacco Garden have nothing to do these days. They will always smoke a few hookahs. Don't be angry. I will scold them now."

Zhang Feng obviously didn't understand the point. Of course, Yan Hao was not angry because these two people were being lazy, but because they were smoky and drunk, and the old photos of the late Qing Dynasty appeared in his mind.At that time, the common people were addicted to opium and hookah, and they were as happy as gods after a cigarette. All the fame and wealth and the complicated world were all gone, and only the temporary pleasure made them indulge in it.

Tobacco has poisoned many Chinese people, making them skinny and skinny, and completely losing their fighting spirit mentally. No wonder we were labeled as the sick men of East Asia!

Therefore, Yan Hao felt a strong sense of awakening!Although only ordinary tobacco is grown in the plantation, which is not a complete poison like the poppy plant, tobacco is also highly addictive. If it is sold on a large scale in the country, it is likely to have adverse effects on national health. Influence.

Thinking of this, Yan Hao said to Zhang Feng: "Zhang Aiqing, from now on, the sales of tobacco in the country must be strictly controlled within a certain quantity limit, and the sales shall be monopolized by the government. Anyone who illegally sells tobacco in the country is strictly prohibited, and violators shall be sentenced to death!"

Zhang Feng was startled when he heard this: "Why does Your Majesty make such a regulation? Is it too extreme?"

Yan Hao said: "Zhang Aiqing, this tobacco is poisonous, and long-term consumption will damage people's will, so we should try our best to place its market in foreign countries overseas, so as to avoid adverse effects on the people of our great Wei, and to protect people's minds. Earn silver from other countries!"

Zhang Feng didn't know much about tobacco at first, but after hearing what Yan Hao said, he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, and said immediately: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I must follow His Majesty's teachings carefully. The sales within the imperial court will be strictly controlled!"

"Okay, that's right." Yan Hao nodded.Regarding the issue of tobacco, it is enough to emphasize it once. After all, tobacco is not poppy, and as long as a little precaution is taken, it will not cause too much harm.

Later, Yan Hao ordered Ruan Tong, a red-capped businessman, to vigorously sell Dawei's tobacco and immortal tea to the Nanyang region, and Ruan Tong naturally readily agreed.After all, with his business acumen, he naturally saw the broad market for these two commodities. Cooperating with the imperial court would not only allow his wealth to skyrocket again, but also bring in huge tariff revenue for the imperial court. It could be described as a win-win deal.

After dealing with the tobacco and fairy tea plantations, Yan Hao returned to the palace, thinking about the "Star Luo Valley" sect that Ruan Tong had investigated.

Ruan Tong didn't know anything about martial arts sects, but Yan Hao now had a basic understanding of the major martial arts sects of the Great Wei Dynasty, but he had never heard of any major sect with this name.

Could it be that this Xingluo Valley is a hidden sect like Jianzong and Falling Sun Hall?

As it was related to the hidden sects of martial arts, Yan Hao naturally invited Feng to ask Wei.

"Your Majesty, why don't you see Shuang'er?" Feng Xiangwei asked in surprise.

After entering the palace, Yan Hao was favored by their master and apprentice together every time, and rarely loved alone, no wonder Feng Xiangwei was not used to it.
