Those years in Konoha

Zhongzhou, the palace, the study room. The website 520xs updates quickly, the website page is clean, and there are few ads. I like this kind of website the most. I must praise it. 79xs.

Du Xianjin, the commander of the Qianji Guards, came in a hurry and went straight into the upper study. He knelt down towards the middle-aged man with a calm aura and a Chinese character face behind the imperial desk: "I have seen your majesty, Du Xianjin."

This middle-aged man with a Chinese character face is Ji Qian, the emperor of the Zhou Empire who controls the thirteen states.

The Great Zhou Empire had three Davids. One was the Redbud Guards, who were the emperor's personal soldiers. Their main duty was to protect the emperor. The second was the Black Dragon Guards. Their duty was to monitor all officials in the world and had the right to directly imprison officials. Therefore, Officials often change their expressions when talking about the Black Dragon Guard.

The third one is the Thousand Machine Guards. The duties of the Thousand Machine Guards are relatively mysterious. They only serve the emperor alone and mainly do some shady things. Therefore, among the three guards, except for the Bauhinia Guards, the other two guards do not have a very good reputation.

"All of you, please step aside."

Ji Qian said to the eunuch and maid serving in the upper study.

"Slave obeys orders"

Soon, the eunuchs and maids all left the study room, and Ji Qian said to Du Xianjin, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Du Xianjin said in gratitude.

"You came to see me, but there are clues to the matter." Ji Qian's eyes had a hint of hope.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the news from our Qianji Guard's spies lurking in the three holy places, the three holy masters have worked together to calculate the time and approximate scope of the temple's arrival."

"Okay." Ji Qian couldn't help showing excitement.

Du Xianjin continued: "The approximate time of the arrival of the temple is twenty-eight months later, and the area of ​​arrival will be in Yuezhou."

Ji Qian said loudly: "God is really helping me, this time the temple actually came to our territory." At this point, a look of thought flashed across his face, and after a long while he continued: "You can leave for Yue now. Regarding the layout of the state, I will give you a secret order, and if necessary, Qi Mingdong can mobilize the army to cooperate with you."

Du Xianjin said quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will live up to your Majesty's expectations."

"That's good." Ji Qian nodded: "But you have to remember that the arrival of the temple is not a trivial matter. It can even affect the national destiny of my country, so you must not be careless."

"Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. I will act with caution." Du Xianjin assured.

"I don't worry about you doing the work, go ahead"

"I resign"

After Du Xianjin exited the study room, Ji Qian fell into memories. A hundred years ago, the world was in chaos, and the Ji family was just a wealthy family. But that year, a temple suddenly descended from the sky.

The temple was born and the world was shaken.

A total of forty-nine people entered the temple, forty-nine people entered the temple, and only nine people came out.

But all these nine people became famous figures in the world. Ji Jichang founded the Great Zhou Empire and became the master of the thirteen states.

Liu Zhan founded the Han Empire and occupied fifteen states in the world.

Xiang Yunlong founded the Chu Empire and occupied twelve states in the world.

Lord Brahma created the Pure Heart Holy Land; Jiang Yunyan created the Dou Zhan Holy Land; Sima Tianji created the Yaochi Holy Land.

Although the remaining three are not as successful as the above six, they have all created their own sects and are now ranked third among the nine major sects.

The arrival of the temple does not take long, only ten days. After ten days, the temple will fly back to the sky again.

Since the first coming of the temple, everyone in the world has been looking forward to the coming of the temple again. After years of calculations, the three holy masters of the Holy Land who have entered the temple have finally calculated the time when the temple will come again.

Thinking of this, Ji Gan couldn't help but show a trace of worry on his face.

The coming of the temple is a good thing and a bad thing for the Great Zhou Empire. If the people of the Great Zhou Empire can get an opportunity in the temple, the national power will naturally become stronger and stronger. If it is someone else who gets it, once they get the opportunity, If people are ambitious, the world may become chaotic again.

After all, those who get the opportunity in the temple are those who are favored by God. Otherwise, the ancestors of the Ji family would not be able to establish the Great Zhou Empire so easily and divide the world between the Liu family and the Xiang family.

at the same time.

The two emperors of the Han Empire and the Chu Empire also received temples that would come to Yuezhou in the Zhou Empire in two years.

The world that had been peaceful for a hundred years began to have undercurrents.

After Song Yan robbed Du Heng, he took Qi Ling'er back to Qingfeng Village.

As soon as he returned to the village, Lao Bangzi came to report that the leader of the 108th village in the Black Wind Mountains, Lonely Yidao, invited him to a banquet tonight.

Song Yan was a little confused and asked Lao Bangzi: "Is there any reason for Guanyidao to invite me?"

Lao Bangzi said: "Master, you have forgotten that every year Lonely Yidao will bring together the masters of all the cottages to re-divide the territory."

After being reminded by Lao Bangzi, Song Yan remembered that this was indeed the case.

The village's income comes from two aspects. One is the offerings from villages near the Black Wind Mountains.

To put it simply, every month the villages in the Shanzhai’s territory will send a protection fee to the Shanzhai. After paying the protection fee, the Shanzhai will no longer rob these villages in their own territory. At the same time, if other bandits rob If these villages are destroyed, our village will still uphold justice for them.

On the other hand, the income comes from merchants, escort agencies, etc. in the territory where the village belongs.

Generally, chambers of commerce and escort bureaus that often travel within this boundary will choose to pay tolls on their own initiative. Therefore, the copycats will not rob them, but will only rob those chambers of commerce and escort bureaus that do not often pass by this boundary.

Of course, these infrequent chambers of commerce and escort bureaus also have strengths and weaknesses, and they would not dare to rob them if they were guarded by powerful warriors.

Therefore, life is not easy for small cottages.

Take the previous Qingfeng Village as an example. There are five villages in the territory. Each village can pay about twelve taels of silver in protection fees every year. The five villages together only cost sixty taels of silver.

I can receive about one hundred taels from the chambers of commerce and escort agencies that I often pass by.

Then through robbery, I can earn about two hundred taels a year, which means that if the three items are added together, the total income of Qingfeng Village is about three hundred and sixty taels.

But these three hundred taels have to feed more than 60 people in the village.

Based on the calculation that one person consumes two kilograms of grain per day, it will consume 60 kilograms per month, and a person of 60 will consume 3,600 kilograms, which is equivalent to eighteen taels of silver. So, it is only money to buy grain in a year. They all cost two hundred and sixteen taels of silver. People can't just eat without eating vegetables and meat. Therefore, every year, Shanzhai will spend more than three hundred taels of silver just on food.

The remaining dozens of taels of silver will be used to buy and repair some weapons. After all, we can't let our men rob with bare hands.

Therefore, life in Qingfeng Village was really tight in the past.

After seeing Song Yan remembering it, Lao Bangzi continued to remind: "Master, many cottages know the news of the death of the master, and our Qingfeng Village's territory is relatively good, there will definitely be people who want to take advantage of our territory, so , you must be careful when dividing the territory this time, and don’t let anyone take our territory away.”

"Don't worry, Old Bangzi, I not only want to keep our territory this time, I also want to grab more territory," Song Yan said confidently.
