Chapter 786: colleges and miners
??Chapter 786 Academy and Miners
??After Xu Lun and Liu Changsheng received Wang Hong's order, they sent a large number of people to various mortal countries to recruit some teenagers under the age of fifteen.
??The scope under the jurisdiction of Great Chu Immortal Kingdom is extremely vast.
??Each city of cultivators has a population of several million. In addition to these fifty-two cities, there are actually many smaller cities that are controlled by small and medium affiliated forces.
??Below the small town, there are many fairs for cultivators, just like small towns in the mortal world.
?? But this is only in the realm of cultivating immortals. Out of tens of thousands of mortals, there will only be one or two cultivators. It is conceivable how huge the number of mortals is.
??These personnel sent out to recruit people also need to find out the situation of the mortal world in the entire Great Chu Immortal, so as to facilitate future plans.
??Since Wang Hong had retreated for several months, every day there was a transport airship, loaded with curious children, and flew back to Jinlan City.
??These flying boats loaded with children landed directly on an extremely wide square in the city.
?? There is a huge plaque in the center of the square, with the words "Great Chu Immortal Kingdom Jinlan College" written on it.
?? Wait until the airship stops, and lower a row of ladders from the airship.
?? "Everyone listen to my instructions and go down the ladder." A kind-looking female cultivator guided the children off the airship with a gentle tone.
??After these children stepped off the flying boat, they stood in a magnificent square, which made these little hearts feel humble like ants.
??Among them are rich and plump young men who are well-clothed and well-fed, but more of them are poor children with tattered clothes, yellow and emaciated faces.
?? After all, everywhere there are only a very small number of rich people, supported by a large number of poor people.
?? In fact, being recruited into the academy is tantamount to giving these poor children a chance to stand up.
?? "Welcome to join the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom Jinlan College. From now on, you will be honored to be a member of the college."
??The gentle woman said in a timely manner, which immediately made these children feel a little bit of selflessness in their hearts.
?? "Everyone follow me first, and salute the founding king." The gentle woman led the group of children towards a huge statue in the square.
??This huge statue stands on the north side of the square, facing the south, with a mighty look.
??Everyone had already noticed this majestic statue on the flying boat just now, so they didn't ask questions or mention it for fear of offending.
?? "This is the founding king of our Great Chu Immortal Kingdom. It is he who led everyone to create the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, which is why the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom is prosperous today.
??As citizens of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, you will need to salute the king every day before morning classes. "
??Next, the gentle woman instilled a lot of great achievements about Wang Hong in these children.
??If Wang Hong was present, he would be so ashamed.
??Wang Hong is still practicing in seclusion, and Xu Lun came up with this idea.
??For the newly recruited children, in addition to teaching and practicing, of course, let them understand who gave them the opportunity to practice and know who they should be loyal to.
??Otherwise, if the talents cultivated by oneself have worked so hard, and finally have no sense of belonging to the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, wouldn’t it be a waste of work.
?? After saluting, the gentle woman brought these children into a residential area.
?? "Remember the number of each of you, and find your own bed in the order of number."
??Under the reminder of the gentle woman, these children found their own beds. When some poor children saw the expensive-looking quilts, they couldn't believe that these things belonged to them.
?? "From now on, the bed here and the cabinet next to it will belong to you personally.
??Everyone can put their salutes in the cabinet and follow me to eat first. The cafeteria here provides free food for twelve hours without interruption. "
??After entering the cafeteria, these children, whether they are rich or poor, are secretly swallowing saliva at this moment.
??The food here is divided into paid and free areas, and the free area is full of all kinds of delicacies.
??Even if it is the wealthiest of these people, many delicacies here have never been tasted by them.
??In addition to free food, there are also some food that is charged.
??They saw rice as big as a fist, small fish like crystals, golden thick soup, and various foods they had never heard of.
??When a white and clean little fat man took out a large piece of silver and wanted to buy a chicken leg with crystal clear flesh, he discovered that gold and silver were not accepted here, but something called Lingshi.
?? In desperation, he could only take away a crab about a foot in size from the free area.
??While these children were desperately stuffing their stomachs with food, two more airships loaded children recruited from elsewhere into the academy, repeating the previous process of the gentle woman.
??The same thing is happening in more than fifty fairy cities in the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom.
??After this period of time, Xu Lun and Liu Changsheng have quickly built academies in major cities, and these newly recruited children are directly sent to study in each academies.
?? The college provides free board and lodging, and some training resources are distributed.
??After the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom defeated the three major sects, they wiped out their savings, and now they are just using it to cultivate their own strength.
?? Moreover, the more than 50 immortal cities under his control will also generate a lot of income every year.
??For example, some caves in the city are rented out to the outside world, which can generate fixed income every year.
?? In addition, shops in the city need to pay a certain amount of taxes every month, which is also a huge benefit.
??In addition, in each city, there are some shops that are directly operated by the city lord's mansion, and they will also generate some profits every year.
?? There are also those affiliated sects who take shelter under the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, and need to hand over part of their income every year. This is also a customary rule in the world of cultivating immortals.
??Just the above income is enough for Great Chu Immortal Kingdom to cultivate a large number of immortal cultivators.
?? Not to mention the hundreds of ore veins, those spiritual mines are processed by the Ministry of Industry before being sold, and they can gain greater benefits.
??Now, with the full efforts of those captives, the mining progress of the spiritual mines is very fast.
??These captives are all cultivated, and the strongest have even reached the cultivation base of Nascent Soul.
??Although part of their cultivation has been sealed, they are still very efficient for mining.
??These captives felt that mining was also a very happy thing because they had just escaped from the fear of death.
??But after a long time, this sense of happiness gradually disappears. I am overwhelmed by heavy labor every day, so it is no wonder that I can maintain happiness for a long time.
?? Even because of this, they felt hatred in their hearts. They didn't have much resentment towards the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, but put all their hatred on the mine heads and soldiers who guarded them.
??Because these mine heads and soldiers used to be captives of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom just like them, but now they have become a mountain pressing on their heads.
?? Supervises their work every day, and often deducts their food.
??Let these captives feel that it was these mine heads and soldiers who took away their opportunities and oppressed them in turn.
??The mine heads and soldiers who are in charge of guarding them may still cherish a little old love at the beginning, which is a bit embarrassing.
??But after a long time, seeing these people who used to be equal to me, even those whose status was much higher than them, can only bow their knees in front of them now, the sense of accomplishment in my heart is beyond words.
?? These mine heads and soldiers gradually indulged in this sense of superiority, and the oppression of these former companions intensified.
??Originally, according to Wang Hong’s promise, these miners and soldiers only need to serve for three years, and then they can stay or stay as they please.
?? Now three years have passed in the blink of an eye, but these people have no idea of ??quitting and going home.
??It will be difficult to enjoy this sense of superiority after going back.
?? Such a result has led to increasing conflicts between the miners, the mine heads and guard soldiers.
?? But as a miner, it is useless even if he has an opinion. He can only endure it silently. A little resistance will only usher in a more cruel punishment.
??On this day, at the exit of a mine outside Jinlan City, a skinny foundation-builder monk was carrying a wooden frame about the size of Zhang, which was filled with freshly mined ore.
?? "Boom!"
??The wooden frame was placed heavily on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
?? "Can't you be lighter? The dust has splashed into my teacup, and I will punish you with a piece of bread."
?? A mine head guarding the entrance of the mine yelled and cursed.
?? "Please! I only ate half a piece of bread yesterday, please show me your hand and let me go."
??The Foundation Establishment cultivator saluted and apologized repeatedly. After they were sealed, they couldn't attract spiritual energy from the air, so they needed to get supplements from food.
??In this case, even Nascent Soul monks still need to eat every day.
?? "My tea is dirty, how can I let you go? And this is the rule."
??The head of the mine casually spilled a cup of spiritual tea on the ground, which made the foundation miner salivate. The spiritual power he gained from eating noodles for a day was not as good as half of the poured spiritual tea.
??The foundation-builder miner even thought that it would be nice if the tea just now was sprinkled on him, so that he could still get some light.
?? Just when the foundation-building miner wanted to say a few more good words and plead, he saw a large airship flying from the far horizon.
??The speed of the flying boat was very fast, and within a short while, it had already flown to the front. It turned out to be a flying boat with the national flag of Da Chuxian.
?? Wait until the airship landed, and a group of well-organized soldiers walked out from it.
??The mine head and guard soldiers, who were still majestic just now, saw the genuine Great Chu Immortal Kingdom army, and hurriedly went to greet them wagging their tails.
?? "Several generals have come from afar, and if they are lost, please forgive them!"
?? "We sent some mining puppets here this time, which can replace manual mining." Said a cold-faced general in the lead.
?? "These miners are also mining very quickly. Isn't this a waste of puppet materials, or I will urge you more in the future?" The mine head said with a smile.
?? "This is Lord Shangshu's arrangement, do you have any objections?" the cold-faced general asked coldly.
?? "Subordinates dare not!" The mine head quickly saluted and admitted his mistake.
?? "These miners have other uses, and I'm going to take some miners away today.
?? These are 500 mining puppets refined by the Ministry of Industry. You can place them in mines instead of manual mining. "
??The cold-faced general said, and took out a storage bag, which contained 500 mining puppets, which could replace 500 miners.
?? There were originally about 2,000 people in this mine, but now a quarter of them have been replaced by puppets.
??The cold-faced general was meticulous in his work. After delivering 500 puppets, he even inspected the puppets on the spot.
??Then call up the mining records of these miners, and select the 500 miners who mine the most.
?? "It's a great honor that you can all be selected by me and have the opportunity to become a soldier of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom.
??Of course, if anyone has doubts, or doesn’t want to go to the battlefield to fight, he can give up this opportunity and continue to go back to mine. I will never stop it. "
?? After the cold-faced general finished speaking, he waited quietly for a long time, and no one was willing to give up this opportunity.
??Up to now, no one thinks that mining is happy anymore. This is their only chance to get rid of their identity as miners and become a normal person. Who would be willing to give it up.
?? You know, there are countless pairs of eyes in the distance, staring at this place with envy, envious of them getting out of the sea of ??suffering.
??Seeing that no one chose to give up, the cold-faced soldier said again: "After entering the army, as long as you make military exploits, you can get rewards, and the rewards of our Great Chu Immortal Kingdom army should be the highest in the entire world of cultivating immortals.
??The ancient general above me was directly rewarded with half a fairy fruit by His Majesty for his meritorious service, and he is now practicing in seclusion. "
?? All of a sudden, everyone at the scene felt their hearts beating violently, and if they got any more excited, they would have to jump outside.
?? This is a fairy fruit. They heard that the reason why their sect fought against the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom last time was to steal their treasures.
??If the three major sects were informed of this matter, why would they fight any more? They would directly surrender to the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom. Maybe they would already be practicing while eating fairy fruits.
?? This time, the arrogant image of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom was deeply imprinted in the hearts of these people, and at the same time they felt that it was not a bad thing for them to fall into the hands of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom.
??Now they can't wait to join the Great Chu Immortal Army and go to the front line to kill the enemy and make meritorious service.
??The cold-faced general did not stay too long, and left with the 500 selected people, but made all the miners who stayed in the mine full of energy.
??Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. In the past, mining was for food, but now they have higher pursuits.
??Now the hard work of mining is all for yourself, for your own bright future.
??You dug a thousand catties today, but tomorrow I have to dig a thousand and one hundred catties.
??In a short period of time, the output of the mineral veins in various places in the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom increased sharply.
??Three years have passed since the end of the last war.
??Outside the Yanyun Gate, although the battle was not very intense, it would be fought once or twice a day.
??During the civil war among the human races on the Fengwu Continent, fortunately, other races were also fighting among themselves. The reason for the fighting was nothing more than the ownership of the treasures in the secret realm.
??The forces that obtained treasures among the various clans are transforming these treasures into strength.
?? Therefore, many forces have made rapid progress during this period, and monks advance almost every day.
??Great Chu Immortal Kingdom is no exception. During this period of time, it has made rapid progress and produced countless high-level monks.
