White Phoenix Territory, White Phoenix City Imperial Palace.
Bai Xiaowen and his companions sat together in a circle.
"That's about it. End of report." Bai Xiaowen picked up a crude clay teacup and took a sip of water.
"…"
Except for Zhen Mi, who paid more attention to her manners, the other companions all opened their mouths and were petrified. This lasted for a whole second.
After a short silence, Qiao Rui said in disbelief, "You're saying that not only did you thwart the Tang Territory's plot to invade the Shao Wei Plane, but you also tied the Shangqing school to our war chariot!"
Cecilia said, "You also kidnapped so many energy experts. Some of them are even stronger than me!"
Han Xu said, "Source Martial Sutra …"
Li Shuyi said, "There's still nearly 20,000 spirit crystals left! This doesn't make sense. You must have seduced that female sect leader! " She looked at Zhen Mi, who had been calm and silent. "Sister Luoshen, why aren't you surprised at all?"
Zhen Mi covered her mouth and chuckled. "I know my husband's ability."
Bai Xiaowen coughed. "Okay, let's stop joking … How's the situation in the territory during the month I was away?"
Zhen Mi reported first, "The situation is normal. The orphans are very diligent and have already harvested the first season's variety of vegetables. The rice grains will be harvested in about a month. At that time, I'll send people to select seeds and expand the planting area. I've already sent a group of skeleton workers to open up new farmland.
Han Xu said, "I used the tools I got from the trade to build a forge. The apprentices I brought out have learned how to smelt metal ingots, which has reduced a lot of work … Currently, the demand for metal products in the White Phoenix City Imperial Palace has basically been met."
Li Shuyi and Qiao Rui also reported on the mineral exploration.
Bai Xiaowen had designated the West River as the territory of the White Phoenix Territory. The mineral resources were really rich. In the past month, Li Shuyi and Qiao Rui had found two silver mines and one copper mine.
Furthermore, in one of the rich silver mines, a spirit crystal was found!
Although there were very few of them and they only occasionally produced Associated Spirit Crystals, it was still very exciting. If not for Bai Xiaowen being too abnormal and bringing back close to twenty thousand Spirit Crystals from the Shao Plane, this Associated Spirit Crystal Mine would have been the only source of Spirit Crystals for the White Phoenix Territory. Its status was incomparably important.
However, perhaps because of the Associated Spiritual Crystals, there were always some wild monsters in this rich silver mine.
These wild monsters were mostly mutated snakes, scorpions, and other poisonous insects. Their levels were generally around Level 12, and most of them were normal. There were a few elite creatures, and there was no leader among them.
The appearance of these wild mutated insects greatly affected the skeletons' excavation progress. The skeletons were not used to fight, but to do manual labor. They were no match for these mutated monsters that were as strong as evolvers.
Li Shuyi, Qiao Rui, and Cecilia would work together to clear out the wild monsters in the silver mine and protect the skeleton workers. However, the three of them had limited energy, so they could not stay in the mine forever.
After understanding the situation, Bai Xiaowen said, "This situation is very common, and we will encounter it more often in the future. These wild monsters are just ordinary poisonous insects, but they mutated because the Spirit Qi in the Associated Spirit Crystal Mine is too rich. The richer the mine, the stronger the mutated monsters … Therefore, the armies formed by many territories are usually used as mine guards. Some lords are worried about the loss of the mine guards, so they will send evolvers to take turns guarding the mine. "
"Hey, Xiaowen, how do you know so much about this?" Li Shuyi asked.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "I manipulated Li Feng … Well, he's an important person in the Tang Territory. I learned about this from his memory fragments."
"Then you should know more about the Tang Territory, right? How strong is this territory? "Li Shuyi asked.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "Don't worry. Although I only know bits and pieces from the memory fragments, the Tang Territory's expedition itself costs a lot, and it can't be compared to our own territory. Now, there are more than 300 warriors. If we organize them well, they will be more than enough to protect the territory. "
"Those three hundred plus martial artists should have come for the Origin Martial Sutra. We have to find a way to use the Origin Martial Sutra to motivate them to protect the territory, "Qiao Rui said thoughtfully.
Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "The Tang Territory has a territorial contribution system. Basically, it is to establish merits and earn contributions. Contributions can be used to enjoy some of the territory's cultivation resources. It is a kind of currency that is similar to Spirit Crystals. We can do the same. As for how to proceed, I already have a general plan. "
Bai Xiaowen planned to classify the people. Now, the 400 or so people in the territory were all level 1. As for the territorial contribution, he named it the "White Phoenix Coins" and ordered Han Xu to be in charge of the minting.
Level 1 citizens would receive a fixed amount of White Phoenix Coins (territorial contribution) every month. They could earn White Phoenix Coins by accepting low-level territorial missions. They could also join the territorial army and become an honorable soldier of the White Phoenix Territory. They could also receive a fixed amount of White Phoenix Coins every month as military pay.
Then, according to the time they joined the territory, the number of missions they completed, and their efficiency, they could apply to be promoted to a level 2 citizen after a period of time. Level 2 citizens could not only receive more White Phoenix Coins every month, but they could also accept higher-level missions with better rewards. Also, if a level 2 citizen joined the territorial army, they could obtain a higher military rank! Of course, their pay would also increase.
Then, there would be level 3 citizens, level 4 citizens, and so on.
As for the uses of the White Phoenix Coins, there were not many. Other than exchanging for time to study the Origin Martial Sutra, they could also be used to buy food, houses, cultivation herbs, and so on. In the future, as the resources of the White Phoenix Territory became more abundant, the uses of the White Phoenix Coins would become more and more widespread.
The aboriginals who joined the territorial army would not only receive White Phoenix Coins every month as military pay, but they would also be able to save a sum of White Phoenix Coins for food. This was because the territorial army provided three meals, and there were also barracks for accommodation.
Bai Xiaowen was basically telling all the citizens that joining the army was glorious and had many benefits.
Only by increasing the benefits of the territorial army could the citizens become more enthusiastic about joining the army. Only then could Bai Xiaowen strictly control the army and train a group of true Hua Xia martial elites.
If there was no such differential treatment, how could the free and undisciplined martial artists of the pugilistic world take the initiative to join the army and accept strict military discipline?
Bai Xiaowen used his brain to write a clear and strict set of rules regarding the citizen ranks, military ranks, and the corresponding rules of the territory. He did not wish for his territory to become like the Great Tang Territory in the future, corrupt and corrupt. He wanted to maintain high efficiency and high combat strength.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen still gave some preferential treatment to the experts in this batch of martial artists. This was also to give face to these famous experts.
