'Dreams can't be eaten, and they can't be kept alive! Dreams will only be a burden, causing you to lose your current position, causing you to bleed in the face of reality, causing more humans to lose their lives for illusory dreams! '
Meng Yungui walked faster and faster as he chased after the Haotian Emperor and the rest. He thought to himself, 'Dreams are too expensive, and they need to be fought for with one's life. Dreams aren't worth a single coin. Anyone can claim to have a dream, but not everyone has the life to enjoy it!'
He caught up to the Haotian Emperor, and the Haotian Emperor was in deep thought. He suddenly said, "Heavenly Teacher Meng, you are in charge of the economy of Heaven, how long do you think the celestial coins can last?"
Meng Yungui pondered for a moment and said, "If they suck blood from other heavens, they can last for another ten years. If Heaven increases the celestial coins to buy minerals from other heavens, they can last for another twenty years."
The Haotian Emperor gave an 'oh', and his interest was piqued. He said, "Twenty years? Heavenly Teacher Shang, do you think the increase in celestial coins from Heaven can last for twenty years? "
Shang Pingyin stepped out and bowed. "I think the increase in celestial coins is like drinking poison to quench thirst, and it will cause the collapse of the celestial coins even faster. Now, a portion of the celestial coins in the ten thousand worlds are concentrated in Heaven and Yankang. The rest of the celestial coins are concentrated in the hands of the rich and powerful families in the ten thousand worlds. The people of the ten thousand worlds don't have much money in their hands. Increasing the celestial coins to buy the minerals in the ten thousand worlds will only cause the celestial coins to fall into the hands of the rich and powerful families. It will make the rich richer and push up the prices of goods. The poor will become poorer, and they will rebel. Doing so will only accelerate the collapse of the celestial coins. "
The Haotian Emperor took a glance at Meng Yungui and said, "What Heavenly Teacher Shang said makes sense."
Meng Yungui said indifferently, "Heavenly Teacher Shang is only acting based on intuition, and you haven't done any detailed calculations. I have algebra as proof. "
His vital qi transformed into algebra runes, and the data of the ten thousand worlds' trade appeared. Countless complicated equations were arranged, and countless algebra calculations were performed. It was incomparably precise, and it could be said to be breathtaking.
"Your subject is in charge of the Heaven's coinage, and I know the production of the Myriad Worlds like the back of my hand. Your subject has already accurately calculated the production numbers to a single digit!"
Meng Yungui said unhurriedly, "When the increase in celestial currency reaches a certain level, it will push up the price of goods and make the people unable to make a living. But as long as it is properly controlled, all of this can be avoided. On the other hand, Heaven has the right to mint money. They can use the additional Celestial Coins to buy Yankang's manufacturing factories and suppress Yankang. They can buy everything in Yankang without shedding a drop of blood. "
He turned his head to look at Shang Pingyin and revealed a challenging expression. He said, "Heavenly Master Shang, your algebra is only the traditional one. In terms of attainment, you are not better than me, right?"
Shang Pinyin looked at his Vital Qi Algebra equations and checked them one by one. He said to the Haotian Emperor, "Heavenly Master Meng's calculations aren't wrong. I've worried too much. However, when Heavenly Master Meng said that his attainments in algebra surpassed mine, I'm not convinced. "
The Haotian Emperor laughed and said, "Both of you are the strongest Heavenly Masters under my command. There's no need to fight over who is the best! It's just that these twenty years have made me a little nervous. I feel that there should be a discount. "
Meng Yungui bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
Shang Pingyin said, "Increasing celestial currency is one thing. Swallowing Yankang is another. As long as Yankang is swallowed, the universe will be unified. There will be no more worries about the collapse of the celestial currency. "
Meng Yungui shook his head and said, "Heavenly Master Shang, you're wrong."
Although Shang Pingyin had a good temper, he couldn't help but get angry after being contradicted twice. He said indifferently, "What advice do you have for me, Heavenly Master Meng?"
Meng Yungui said, "Just now, Heavenly Master Shang said that increasing celestial currency will only fall into the hands of the powerful families. Even if Your Majesty gets Yankang and allows the circulation of celestial currency to continue, it will still fall into the hands of the powerful families. The people of the universe will still rebel. It has nothing to do with whether or not you get Yankang."
Shang Pingyin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile that wasn't a smile, "Heavenly Master Meng, how do you think we can avoid this situation?"
Meng Yungui said, "I think that Your Majesty's biggest enemy in the world isn't Yankang, Mu Tianzun, Celestial Venerable Ling, and the rest. It's the powerful families that have accumulated endless wealth. In the myriad of worlds, countless powerful families controlled power and wealth. After a million years, the wealth of the universe has been concentrated in their hands, resulting in today's situation. They have more and more celestial currency in their hands, and the circulation of celestial currency in the universe is decreasing. Over time, the people are resentful, resulting in the chaos of the universe. The rise of Yankang is just a matter of bringing forward the chaos by a few years. "
Shang Pingyin snorted. "Heavenly Master Meng has said so much, but you only mentioned the cause, not the solution. I would like to hear Heavenly Master Meng's solution. "
Meng Yungui hesitated and didn't continue. He said, "I'm worried that I'll be punished for speaking."
The Haotian Emperor laughed. "I'm not a fatuous ruler, just say it."
Meng Yungui bowed and said, "The powerful families have too much wealth. No matter how much celestial currency we increase, it will eventually fall into their hands. The only solution is to abolish the powerful families. And the best way to abolish them is to make full use of their talents … "
"Impudent!"
Shang Pingyin said coldly, "Heavenly Master Meng, you're too impudent! Abolishing the powerful families, isn't the next step to be a reform? Your Majesty, Meng Yungui must be a spy from Yankang. Please give the order immediately to put this beast on the God Execution Stage! "
The other civil and military officials said, "Heavenly Master Meng is a human. He has evil intentions, deceiving people, and harboring evil intentions. Your Majesty, please punish him!"
The Haotian Emperor waved his hand and smiled. "Alright, alright, stop attacking Heavenly Master Meng. Heavenly Master Meng, you're too direct. It's not like how you used to be. In my Heaven, from the civil and military officials to the merchants and pawns in the Heaven, they're all powerful families. Even you're a powerful family. You've offended everyone in the Heavenly Court with that one sentence of yours! "
He said with a faint smile, "I'm also from a powerful family. You're trying to change the fate of the Heaven. Your words are inappropriate, but I won't blame you. I'll only confiscate half a year's salary. "
Meng Yungui's eyes dimmed. He bowed and said, "I accept the punishment."
The Haotian Emperor gave an order and said, "We'll do as Heavenly Master Shang said. We'll annex Yankang and increase celestial currency at the same time. Heavenly Master Meng, you don't have to worry about this. Leave it to Heavenly Master Shang. "
Meng Yungui said sadly, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The civil and military officials praised, "Your Majesty is wise!"
The Haotian Emperor returned to the palace and asked, "Is Mu Tianzun back? I'm still waiting for him to surrender and sign the contract. "
