Rise of the Douluo Empire

Chapter 140 Sweeping Thunder

One month after the border war ended, the citizens of the Wuhun Empire had gradually adapted to this new country and began to live and work in peace and contentment.

Without the aristocracy as an exploitative class, the lives of the lower-class civilians began to get better. However, without the suppression of the aristocracy, the big businessmen who owned most of the capital began to engage in vicious competition, suppressing their opponents, and causing many changes in the market throughout the empire. Big fluctuations.

"Your Majesty, this is what we have learned. There are ten big businessmen in the entire empire, who control most of the trading market, and the finances of the Ministry of Household Affairs are affected by them.

These people were all merchants who had collaborated with the nobles to sell slaves. They were also the financial backers behind the Soul Fighting Arena and had strong financial resources.

Although the spirit fighting arenas were opened by spirit master forces in various cities, they were the ones who invested the funds behind them. Not only did these ten big businessmen have many spirit master bodyguards, but they also had connections with major spirit master sects.

During the Tiandou Empire, it was a powerful secret force, but now it is just more unscrupulous.If they were directly investigated and punished, it would definitely shake the empire's newly stabilized economic situation. "

Yan Shan held a long stack of paper in his hand and read.

He was ordered to inventory the population and the number of soul masters in the empire, sort out freight, trade and other matters, stabilize the market, and lay the foundation for the upcoming commercial law.But he encountered a problem halfway. From some of the illegal traders he investigated, he discovered the black hands hiding behind the scenes.

"Oh! There is such an energetic person! What is your opinion?"

Li Yao, who was sitting high on the throne, looked at the latest textbook compiled by Qiling Academy in his hand, turning the pages and reading it carefully.What Yan Shan said was not as interesting as the book in his hand.

"I think it's time to let it go for a while. After all, the empire has just been established and has just stabilized. If we deal with them directly now, will it cause the entire empire's economy to collapse and cause unpredictable losses?

Once the empire has passed this period, it will not be too late to take action against these people. "

He carefully stated his suggestion, which was a gentle way to handle this special period smoothly.

And he believed that as time passed and the empire became stronger and more stable, these people would no longer dare to do such dangerous things that disrupted the market and controlled the economy.

"Yan Shan, do you know? You are the one who followed me from the beginning and are good at business and financial management, so I will hand over the Imperial Household Department to you and I have great expectations for you."

Li Yao stood up on the throne and appeared behind Yan Shan in a flash.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love!"

He patted Yan Shan on the shoulder, asked him to straighten up, and said.

"But do you know where you are worse than others?"

Yan Shan was stunned and started thinking, but he couldn't think of anything for a long time.What makes him worse than several other ministers is his soul power level?

what is this else?

"Your Majesty, please make it clear that I didn't expect it."

Yan Shan stood beside Li Yao and asked.

"What makes you worse than them is your courage. This has something to do with your origin, but it is not impossible to change. If other people encounter this situation, they will never hesitate or show mercy. They are just a few businessmen. You What are you afraid of?

Even if killing them will affect the economic operation of the empire, will the majesty of the empire be trampled on by them unscrupulously?Don't expose your weaknesses to your enemies. As the household minister of the Wuhun Empire, you should have your own confidence. "

The buzzing divine voice echoed in the hall, and Li Yao's figure had disappeared. He had said what he needed to say, and it was up to him to be able to do that.

"Go find Xie Yue and Yu Tianheng!"

In the end, he reminded him that he was following his old man after all.

After Yan Shan left, he found Xie Yue and Yu Tianheng, and discussed together how to deal with these big businessmen who controlled the market.At Yu Tianheng's suggestion, the three parties were prepared to join forces and attack quickly to eradicate these people completely.

Minister of Personnel Xie Yue and Minister of Household Affairs Yan Shan did not mobilize the military power.But as the Minister of Punishment, Yu Tianheng has a security force under his command, so it is just right to use it here.

The security force, which was originally used to hunt down criminals, appeared in front of the public for the first time.Before the action, the three of them also loaned a group of senior soul masters to Wuhun Palace as backup.

"You can just let them go and clean out that group of people without any worries?"

Qian Renxue, who was standing at the highest point on the top of the suspended city, asked Li Yao, who was watching the departing security forces beside her.

"What's there to worry about? With their strength, how dangerous can it be to clean up a few trash fish?"

Li Yao replied calmly, just a few businessmen, how much force can they possess.

"You know that's not what I'm asking. When I was the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire, those few businessmen already had unimaginable wealth, but behind them stood the nobles of the entire Tiandou Empire, and the royal family took advantage of them. There is no way.

Although they have lost their backer now, the unfettered beast is even more dangerous.And just as Yan Shan considered, if these people suddenly lose control of the market, greater turmoil is likely to occur. "

The soft voice slowly expressed her worries.

"I have asked the Horcrux Academy to prepare. If the momentum goes wrong, the popularization of civilian Horcruxes will start early.

Moreover, Yueguan and the Horcrux Academy have used the abundant energy of the soul crystals and the Ice and Fire Secret Realm to cultivate a new type of grain, which is between plant soul beasts and ordinary plants.

Not only is the output high enough, but the quality is also excellent, which can improve the physique of the people. Although this process is relatively slow, as long as you persist, after a few generations, even among civilians, the quality of martial arts and innate soul power will be improved.

And this new grain will replace the original ordinary rice as a staple food and spread throughout the country. "

Never one to do anything uncertain, he calmly stated his plan and explained it to Qian Renxue.

He had a premonition of these things that were going to happen a long time ago, so he made preparations early, put new civilian Horcruxes on the market, and replaced the original grains with higher-quality grains.

No matter how the market fluctuates, it has nothing to do with the common people at the bottom. If the largest group of people in the country are stable, other people will not be greatly affected.

Therefore, those businessmen who try to control the empire with money and capital must die!

"So you've thought about it a long time ago, why didn't you tell me?"

A slight scolding sounded in his ears.

Li Yao, who was originally folding his arms and looking like he was strategizing, suddenly broke his guard when he heard this scolding and looked at the angry Qian Renxue.

"Don't fight...I forgot...I really forgot..."

"cha"

The two swords were crossed, and fire exploded.

"Ha! Guess whether I believe it or not!"

Raising his sword, the sword light flowed inextricably and was inextricably linked to Li Yaodou.

And in a certain big city in the distant empire, a bloodbath has quietly begun, and no one knows what happened.

All I know is that after just one night, the wealthy businessman who once spent millions of dollars disappeared and never appeared again.

They had no time to pay attention to these, because the empire began to implement a new national policy and began to sell wonderful Horcruxes to its citizens.
