Start with a blood-drinking sword and destroy the world of immortal cultivation
Chapter 46: Extravagant Spending
Ye Buwen walked through the palace avenue full of elite soldiers, the halls full of civil and military officials, and finally came to the dragon chair engraved with dragon patterns.

The dragon chair is majestic and exudes golden light.
It's just that this chair shouldn't be very comfortable to sit on.
The two armrests are more than one meter apart. When sitting on it, you have to open your hands to put them on it. Your elbows are hanging in the air, which makes sitting for a long time very tiring.
In addition, there are carvings on the backrest, which is probably annoying when you lean on it.
It's not that comfortable to work as an emperor.
Ye Buwen sat on it while complaining.
"My Emperor is supreme, long live my Emperor."
All civil and military ministers knelt down and worshiped. Their shouts reached the sky of the main hall and outside the main hall, neatly and powerfully.
Seeing the people below saluting him, Ye Buwen muttered: "Why does it feel so boring to be an emperor?"
The vanity of everyone kneeling down was not satisfied.
I didn't feel solemn and excited after watching the coronation ceremony held for me.
Even sitting on this throne has no sense of pride.
"Everyone, please get up. There is no need to salute me in the future. Just clasp your fists and salute."
"Since I sit on this throne, I will not hide my purpose."
Ye Buwen stood up, supported the table with his hands, and looked directly at the ministers.
"First, I will summon all the swordsmiths in the world to make me a famous sword that is number one in the Wu Kingdom and the number one in the Ten Kingdoms."
"Who can do this for me?"
A minister came out and said, "I, the Minister of the Ministry of War, would like to summon famous craftsmen to make swords for our emperor."
"good."
"Who is in charge of the national treasury and the imperial treasury?"
"Chen, Zeng Cheng, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."
"Okay, you take out all the precious ore materials in the treasury and allocate another 100,000 taels of silver as the swordsmith's reward.
Anyone who refines a good sword will be rewarded with one hundred taels, and whoever refines a fine sword will be rewarded with one thousand taels. If he can refine a sword that surpasses all the swords currently in the state of Wu, he will be rewarded with 20,000 taels of silver. "
"Hiss..." The ministers took a breath of cold air.
Rewarding anyone who can refine a sword 20,000 taels of silver is too generous.
"Your Majesty, this is not how the treasury money is used."
The Minister of Household Affairs said anxiously.
The one hundred thousand taels of silver have been allocated, and it is difficult for him, the Minister of Household Affairs, to move forward.
"It seems right. The national treasury is the money of all people and should be used for all people."
The Minister of Household Affairs almost cried when he heard this.
My emperor, you are truly a virtuous emperor. You have explained the way of governing the country in one word.
"My emperor is wise."
The minister of household affairs knelt down and bowed.
Ye Buwen wondered if this Minister of Household Affairs was very good at flattering people because he was always giving gifts.
However, he is not here to rule the country, he is here to suck blood.
He doesn't care what the official is like.
"How much money does Wu Lingqi's royal treasury have? Who is in charge of it?"
The minister of household affairs stood up and said: "Back to the emperor, the former emperor's private treasury is in charge of the eunuch of the internal affairs. It is estimated that there are three million taels of silver."
"Three million?" Ye Buwen was surprised.
Damn, this royal family is really rich.
"Where is the head eunuch of the house?" Ye Buwen asked.
"He committed suicide." Ouyang Zhan stood up and "committed suicide with loyalty to his master."
"Oh." Ye Buwen nodded unexpectedly.
"Old man, if he committed suicide, you can take the money from Wu Lingqi's private treasury. Wu Lingqi is your son-in-law, so it should be easy to get it out, right?"
"That's no problem."
"That's good. Since there is so much money, let's spend another hundred thousand taels to make the best gun for Ouyang Guogong."
Ouyang Zhan was flattered and shocked.
Your grandma is so good at playing, right?
Ouyang Zhan's grandson, the prince, was heartbroken at this moment. This is not your money, and it doesn't hurt at all to use it.
"In addition, take another 150,000 taels of silver and summon skilled craftsmen to make me the best armor. The person who can make the best armor will be rewarded with 30,000 taels of silver."
The ministers were shocked again.
Hao, Hao is inhumane.
The imperial treasury suddenly lost 450,000 taels of silver. Any emperor who dared to spend such money would be stabbed in the spine by everyone in the history books.
But Ye Buwen didn't care, he was the emperor just to spend money.
Without spending money, what kind of emperor would he be?
"People from the Imperial Medical Office, I will give you 50,000 yuan. You and your people will give me a month's time to refine those hundred-year-old ginseng in the imperial treasury into pills that enhance Qi and blood. medicine."
Ouyang Zhan stared at Ye Buwen with wide eyes.
You kid really doesn’t know what fifty thousand taels of silver is.
Those imperial medical offices can make elixirs for you to eat if they get this money.
"In addition, I will give you another 50,000 taels from the Imperial Medical Office to research elixirs that can strengthen bones and poisons that can destroy bones and flesh if I eat them."
"Hiss..." Ouyang Zhan gasped again.
He couldn't imagine how crazy the Imperial Medical Office would be if it received this funding.
"In addition, I want to collect all the martial arts techniques and all the immortal cultivation classics of the Wu Kingdom. The more mysterious, the weirder, and the more suspected the secrets of immortal cultivation are, the more they are submitted to me. The funding is 100,000 taels."
Another big move, the ministers were already shocked.
Only Ouyang Zhan's grandson was crying.
If Ye Buwen abdicates, all the money will be his.
"That's all I can think of for the moment. If you have any doubts, I'll leave the court without incident."
Ouyang Zhan said anxiously: "What about the zombies?"
"Wuyou. Give me the best knife, give me the best armor, and with me, the strongest person, you can kill like a dog."
"By the way, Minister of War, ask those skilled craftsmen to make me an iron can."
Ye Buwen compared it with his head.
"It's a little bigger than my head, and it can be easily put down, and it can't be pulled out after it's put down."
"Your Majesty, what's the use of this?" The Minister of War asked in confusion.
"Stupid, of course it's for zombies. Before fighting, put this thing on its head, so that it can't find the direction, can't move its mouth, and can't eat. Isn't it easier to kill?"
"If I can't kill the zombie, it can't eat people with this thing."
Ouyang Zhan clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Fuck, you still know how to do it."
"My emperor is wise." Everyone knelt down.
"No need to withdraw."
Ye Buwen walked down the dragon chair and said to Ouyang Zhan: "Old man, take me to the royal family's treasure house."
Ouyang Zhan was speechless when he heard this.
"The Wu family is so unlucky to have met an emperor like you."
"Who said that's the imperial treasury? I'm the emperor now, and everything in it belongs to me. Can't I take something?"
"Of course I can. I have to say, you have a really big appetite."
"Others want to get rewards and silver for meritorious service, but you want the accumulation of hundreds of years of the entire royal family."
Ouyang Zhan brought Ye Buwen to the imperial treasury deep in the palace, which was heavily guarded.
The imperial treasury was made of copper and iron, and was indestructible. Only the emperor had the key to open it.
But the key was still found by Ouyang Zhan's daughter Ouyang Ting.
Opening the imperial treasury, it was dark inside, the air was cold, and there was a chill.
The two lit candles and watched the treasures accumulated by the royal family for hundreds of years.
You don't know until you see it, and you know that the royal family is really rich.
Golden armor, golden sword, precious gold made into things that are only for viewing.
Then there are several boxes full of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as beautiful and expensive jewelry.
There were also precious and gorgeous porcelains.
However, Ye Buwen didn't care about these. Money and things were not as good as Xianwu.
Ye Buwen went directly to the weapon rack.
He picked up a gorgeous sword with Longyin written on it.
"Is this sword sharp?"
Ouyang Zhan said: "The Longyin Sword was a sword sent by the Chu State when the Emperor of Wu founded the country. It looks good, but no one has used it."
"It's probably not the best to use. This thing is not used to kill people."
Ye Buwen raised the sword, and he still hoped that it was a famous sword.
He came to the iron wall and stabbed it hard with the sword.
"Bang~" When the Longyin Sword was stabbed into the three-centimeter-thick iron wall, it broke.
Ouyang Zhan showed a regretful expression: "I said it was for viewing. What a waste of a precious sword."
Ye Buwen put the broken sword back on the sword rack in disappointment.
"If you want to find a magic weapon, look at those old and simple ones. Those are the good swords and knives made by famous craftsmen in ancient times."
After trying and breaking several famous swords and knives, Ye Buwen finally recognized a super heavy and thick door board knife.
Although this knife is not famous, it is big and durable.
This is the knife of a general with a butcher knife seventy years ago. It has never been bent after dozens of battles.
If 100,000 taels of silver can't make a good knife, this one can also be used.
At least it is heavy, big, and has amazing lethality, and it is a good knife for chopping trees.
For armor, Ye Buwen also chose a set of ancient famous generals' armor that fits him.
Use it first, in case the one made by the craftsman is not so good.
