In the morning, Ling Ping'an woke up from his sweet sleep.
He stretched his body.
Meow!
The kitten, Bastet, who had been lying by the bed, also woke up and meowed at him in a flattering manner.
He stretched out his hand slightly and the little guy jumped into his hand from the ground.
He hugged it in his arms.
The kitten's body was very soft and its fur was very clean. It had a pair of cute amber eyes and looked adorable.
It was as cute as a little girl.
Ling Ping'an chuckled, "Little darling... the fellowship party begins today..."
"In terms of arrangements, we can go home in four or five days!"
Meow!
The kitten meowed briskly as if it was saying that it didn't like the imperial capital either.
Ling Ping'an shook his head, "Isn't there no other way?"
"Just treat it as coming here to complete a mission!"
In Ling Ping'an's eyes, coming to the imperial capital this time was similar to doing homework when he was in school when he was young.
It was a mission.
He just had to follow the procedure.
It could be considered as giving the royal family face and being worthy of the monthly allowance and subsidies.
He picked up his phone and looked at the time.
It was eight o'clock.
"Let's go down and have breakfast first!" As he spoke, he walked to the bathroom and washed up.
… …
Ouyang Jin held the cigarette in his mouth and leaned against the corridor wall outside the Yan Lou. He took a deep puff and exhaled a smoke ring.
Then, he looked at the person beside him.
"Tian San..." he asked, "Did you really find so many transcendent being spirit veins at Kunlun Mountain?"
The person called Tian San was a new friend he had met in the imperial capital.
He was Tian Jiyuan from the yamen of Xinyuan Technology Company in the imperial capital.
Just like him, he was a guy who was neither good at literature nor martial arts. He could only be a rice worm.
However, because he was from the imperial capital, he had many sources of information.
He could always get some resources.
Because he was the third in the family, everyone called him 'Tian San'.
Tian Jiyuan puffed out a smoke ring and said, "Kunlun Mountain has been sealed by the military and the Blackguard!"
"No one is allowed to enter!"
"I heard that the Blackguard and the cabinet are discussing organizing an international expedition..."
"They want to explore and develop the transcendent being resources of Kunlun Mountain!"
"Isn't that nonsense!" Tian Jiyuan couldn't help but complain.
"How can we show our own treasures to others?"
"Besides! What if other people see it and want a piece of the pie? "
Ouyang Jin listened and chuckled.
"What are you laughing at?" Tian Jiyuan asked.
"Tian San!" Ouyang Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "You don't know how to treat him!"
His family had been government officials for generations.
His father was a former cabinet minister of the Western Song Dynasty.
Ever since she was young, she was very sensitive to Zhengzhi.
"He's trying to recruit people!"
"He's also digging a pit for others!"
After the end of the hundred-year war, the Federal Empire continued to hold high the banner of 'all countries are equal regardless of their size' in accordance with the policies left behind by Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong. It became a timely rain for international justice.
The Federal Empire turned a blind eye to the internal struggles of various countries.
Because of the Founding Father's last words: Do not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.
But if anyone dared to invade …
The Emperor's Army would soon let him know what propriety and benevolence were!
With this, even the smallest country could maintain its territorial integrity and sovereignty.
No matter how big a country was, it could not easily deal with a small country with a population of a few hundred thousand.
That was because the invasion would definitely summon the Emperor's Army.
For the past two hundred years, the Emperor's Army had already used facts to tell everyone that they would attack whoever invaded.
Ordinary people could only see that the Empire's Army did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to attack the country. However, after helping the victims resist the invasion, they immediately patted their buttocks and returned to their homeland.
But the Zhengzhi knew that this was the most brilliant method.
The center of the Empire maintained the hegemony of the Empire without any effort and at the smallest price.
However, it would not cause anyone's dissatisfaction or disgust.
His own brilliance was at its peak.
The words of the Emperor's Army were even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Whether it was in the world, the Kunlun State, or even the Land of Qin.
If there was anything, they would look for the Great Xia. This became the first reaction of the ruling groups and people of various countries.
Therefore, the Land of Qin had to adhere to the legal system of the Holy Roman Empire.
Because only under the Shenluo system would the annexation war between them not attract the interference of the Emperor's Army.
But this would also lead to a problem.
If the party that was invaded broke the pot and announced that it would withdraw from Shenluo and become an independent country.
Then, it would ask for help from the Federal Empire.
Then …
There was no way to fight this war.
Therefore, the intensity of the war in the Land of Qin had plummeted ever since that Frederick the Great.
Tian Jiyuan listened and shook his head, "I don't care about this!"
"In any case, if my family doesn't get a piece of spiritual land in Kunlun Mountain and a foreigner gets it!"
"I'm going to the Zhou Hall and the Yan Hall to curse!"
"Even!"
"I'm going to the temples of Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong to cry!"
"Let's see if they're impatient!"
Ouyang Jin laughed when he heard this.
In the imperial capital, there were countless troublemakers like the Tian family.
These people were very capable.
Once they joined forces and caused trouble, the ruling cabinet would be disgraced.
It would also be very embarrassing.
However, the cabinet was not a fool. How could they be casually manipulated by others?
Therefore, Tian Jiyuan was just talking for fun.
Not to mention anything else, how could it be so easy to enter the Zhou Hall and the Yan Hall?
Were the security personnel useless?
As for the temples of Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong?
These former emperors' divine temples were guarded by retired generals.
Especially the Taizu Temple. Legend had it that after the previous commander-in-chief retired, he had been living in seclusion there.
Wouldn't it be courting death to touch his hands?
Ouyang Jin thought of this and changed the topic. He asked, "Tian San, I heard that the stars of Kunlun Mountain seem to be related to that Master X?"
"Yes!" Tian Jiyuan nodded, "I'm not sure about the specifics either!"
"But I heard that the stars of Kunlun Mountain were a gift from that Master X to thank the royal family for their hospitality!"
"That night, the Emperor Molasses that fell from the imperial capital was also closely related to that Master X!"
At this point, Tian Jiyuan sighed, "I wonder what kind of almighty he is!"
"In the past, when I was studying, I heard people say: An ordinary man is a teacher for a hundred generations, and his words are the law of the world!"
"I don't really believe it!"
"But now, I have to admit that there really is such a person!"
The stars of Kunlun Mountain had turned Kunlun Mountain into an extraordinary divine mountain.
Just the information that they had obtained from various channels had already made many people unable to sleep well last night.
The entire glacier, which stretched for dozens of kilometers, was transcendent.
Raging waves slapped the table, and countless spirit herbs and spirit flowers grew on both sides of the winding river valley overnight.
There were even people who found mountains of spirit jade raw stones in the lower reaches of the river valley.
Legend had it that the vice president of the Federal Empire's Academy of Sciences, a famous geology scholar, Wei Changqing, had been invited to Kunlun Mountain for an investigation.
After exploring a certain spirit mine, the grand scholar gave an estimate of the spirit mine's reserves: fifty thousand tons!
It was too terrifying!
50,000 tons of spirit mines!
The total output of all kinds of spirit mines in the entire Federal Empire last year was estimated to be less than 30,000 tons.
The output of all kinds of spirit mines in the world would not exceed 70,000 tons!
At least 50,000 tons of them were within the scope of the world.
In Kunlun State, for the sake of a mine with an annual output of 300 tons of spirit mines, they had fought for an entire ten years and more than two million people were killed or injured!
And now, in Kunlun Mountain, any random spirit mine had reserves of 50,000 tons!
Now...
The entire imperial capital was about to go crazy.
All the countries in the world were also going crazy.
Even Qin Lu was probably about to go crazy.
From the looks of it, there were probably many similar spirit mines in Kunlun Mountain.
Ouyang Jin estimated that this matter would probably completely rewrite the history of the entire world.
Unfortunately...
Ouyang Jin let out a long sigh.
He had met that Master X before.
But...
After one meeting, he understood that he didn\'t have that fate.
He could only obediently be his second generation.
He was waiting for death to come!
"If I had a better life..."
"Or if I was smarter..."
"If Master X was happy, even if he leaked a little from under his fingernails, my life would be considered complete!"
He sighed in his heart.
Then, he said to Tian Jiyuan, "Tian San, have you heard of the discussions in the imperial capital now?"
"That?" Tian Jiyuan asked.
"It\'s about the legends of the mountains and seas!"
"Oh!" Tian Jiyuan chuckled. "Are you also thinking about the overseas immortal mountains?"
The legends of the mountains and seas originated from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
There were all kinds of magnificent legends in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Among them, the overseas immortal mountains were the focus.
To be precise, they were the focus of the various transcendent being families.
Since the Kunlun Mountain had begun to transcend.
Then...
In the future, would the other famous mountains in the Classic of Mountains and Seas also recover?
And among these famous mountains and lakes, the most famous were the few immortal mountains that were illusory even in the legends.
Penglai, Fangzhang, Yingzhou.
According to speculation, these immortal mountains should be in the East Ocean.
If they recovered...
Everyone could not help but feel their heartbeats quicken.
Because according to past practice, the Blackguard would not interfere too much with these transcendent being resources that were not in the empire\'s territory and territorial sea.
Basically, whoever discovered it would develop it and own it.
They just had to remember to pay taxes.
The seabed beach that Fusang and Xinluo were fighting over was like this.
The Blackguard did not care at all and even tacitly agreed to the sovereignty that Fusang and Xinluo claimed over it.
They only requested that the two countries settle it peacefully.
Put aside disputes and develop it together.
Naturally, everyone could not help but have fantasies.
This kind of fantasy of getting rich overnight was something that everyone would have.
Looking at Ouyang Jin\'s expression, Tian Jiyuan smiled and said, "Naturally, everyone is watching this matter!"
"Didn\'t you see that the person who claims to be the successor of Grand Scholar Tesla and said that he was going to die on Mars is already speeding up his private satellite business?"
"Just this morning, my family got his prospectus!"
"Tsk tsk... 1% of the shares will have to raise 50 billion Chinese yuan!"
Ouyang Jin frowned when he heard that. "So expensive?"
"Yes!" Tian Jiyuan said, "My old man has made the decision! Invest! "
"I\'ve already asked my professional managers to start selling the Empire\'s bonds to raise funds!"
The Federal Empire had an extremely huge pool of national debt.
Now, it had expanded to a terrifying scale of 50 trillion Chinese yuan.
Just the interest expenses alone were hundreds of billions every year!
It was such a huge national debt, but the central government had never thought of paying it back.
Because the last cabinet chief who had intended to pay back the money was abandoned in the election.
What a joke!
He dared to pay back the Empire\'s national debt?
How dare he!
He didn\'t even think about it. What was the national debt for?
It was a proof of allegiance!
The Blackguard\'s rule was that every 100 million yuan of national debt bought could be exchanged for 100 points.
This was the only point that the Blackguard sold to the outside world.
All the transcendent being families were desperately buying. If they had money, they would buy national debt.
What was it for?
Was it points?
No!
It was loyalty!
It was the same for all the countries in the world.
Every year, the fiscal revenue and foreign trade revenue were basically invested in the Federal Empire\'s national debt.
Interest?
That was just incidental.
In fact, the act of buying national debt itself was a kind of submission, a kind of tribute.
So, which cabinet dared to pay back the national debt?
Which cabinet dared not to issue bonds?
If that was the case, it was basically telling the others that they were going to chop them up!
Why?
If they didn\'t let others borrow money, wouldn\'t that mean that they were going to chop people up?
Therefore, the national debt issued by the Federal Empire every year, even though the interest rate was already as low as less than 1%.
But there was still an endless stream of people buying it.
And the various families also habitually used their earnings on national debt and sold it when they needed it.
It was very convenient.
Things like national debt were even harder than cash.
After all, cash could be counterfeit banknotes.
But this national debt was a hard currency that was comparable to gold.
If there were a lot of them, they could even buy transcendent being spiritual items!
"You invested 50 billion?" Ouyang Jin was dumbfounded.
Tian Jiyuan took it for granted. "Of course!"
"Things like satellites are the future!"
"If we want to discover the possible transcendent being reaction in the vast sea, don\'t we have to rely on satellites?"
"If our investment can make us a step faster, that\'s enough!"
"What\'s more, Tesla Technologies is indeed a high-quality investment target!"
Ouyang Jin thought about it carefully and felt that Tian Jiyuan was right.
Nowadays, aerospace was a hot topic.
It also took advantage of the recovery of Kunlun Mountain.
Then the stock price of Tesla Technologies would definitely skyrocket!
This investment would definitely be profitable!
He heard Tian Jiyuan say, "Ouyang, if you have the heart, just take out a few million or tens of millions..."
"I\'ll help you operate it and subscribe according to the stock price my family bought!"
Ouyang Jin acted as if he didn\'t hear it.
His eyes were looking at a figure in the hall.
"Ouyang!" Tian Jiyuan patted his shoulder. "What\'s wrong?"
Ouyang Jin came back to his senses. He lowered his head and didn\'t say anything.
He only sighed in his heart.
That figure was a little familiar.
And the cat in his arms was a solid proof of his identity.
But...
Ouyang Jin could only watch from afar. He didn\'t even dare to approach.
Because that was a mighty figure!
And it was a mighty figure who had surpassed the Immortal God!
Since such a mighty figure had already made him understand that he was no longer fated.
Then if he went any closer, he would take the initiative to hate him.
He would be trampled to death!
… …
Holding the cat, Ling Ping\ 'an looked at the news on his phone.
There were two hot spots today.
One was that the descendant of the refugees from the Land of Qin, the chairman of Tesla Technologies, who claimed to be the successor of Grand Scholar Tesla\'s spiritual mantle, announced that he would raise another 300 billion yuan to realize his wish of\ 'dying on Mars\'.
In the end, the capital moved upon hearing the news.
It was said that he had raised enough money in two hours!
"Is the capital so easy to deceive now?" Ling Ping\ 'an shook his head.
He really didn\'t understand the matters of capital!
However, looking at the news and the high-spirited chairman, Ling Ping\ 'an had to admit that this man was well aware of capital and the psychology of the middle class.
The title of\ 'Grand Scholar Tesla\'s spiritual mantle\' was enough to attract attention.
Another ambition of\ 'I want to die on Mars\' was immediately pursued by the petty bourgeoisie.
Selling electric cars was especially efficient.
The other news was more interesting.
It was actually a follow-up to the Starfall Incident at Kunlun Mountain.
The Vice President of the Federal Empire's Academy of Sciences, the Dean of the Imperial Institute of Geology, and Grand Scholar Wei Changqing announced that they would launch international cooperation to conduct a scientific expedition to the Kunlun Mountain area.
Scientists from all over the world are welcome to participate.
"Did something really happen in the starfall of Kunlun Mountain last time?" Ling Ping'an thought as he watched the news.
Then, he looked at the comment section.
Basically, it had already been flooded by netizens from all over the world.
"On behalf of the Fusang Academy of Sciences, I announce that we will join Great Xia's expedition!"
"Please bring me Xin Luo!"
"The Ceylonese are ready!"
"Lanfang Gonghe firmly supports it!"
For all the countries in the world, every time they participated in this kind of activity initiated by the Federal Empire, it was equivalent to being one step closer to the Federal Empire of Xia!
Of course, there were also some discordant voices in the comments section.
"The Northern India Kingdom requests to join!"
Then …
This netizen from Northern India was scolded by trolls from all over the world.
The netizens jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
The concept of the world had long been fixed.
India was not one of them.
Naturally, this netizen's actions were seen as overstepping his boundaries in the eyes of others.
How could this be acceptable?
Ling Ping'an looked at it and shook his head.
To be honest, it was very difficult for him to understand why the netizens from all over the world were so hostile?
The people of Great Xia didn't say anything.
Instead, they jumped up.
All of them were furious.
It was as if that Indian netizen had done something heinous and desecrated the holiness in their hearts.
Was there a need to?
Ling Ping'an originally wanted to leave a message under that netizen to support and encourage him.
But when he typed, he found that the netizen had already deleted the message.
"Sigh!" Ling Ping'an also sighed helplessly.
There was no other way.
All the countries in the world were extremely contemptuous and vigilant towards India's behavior of wanting to join the 'civilized world'.
In the eyes of many people, India was a person from another world.
But people in India had something to say.
During the Tang Dynasty, Master Sanzang had traveled thousands of miles to communicate with the eminent monks of India.
In real history, the famous general of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xuance, had also held the Emperor's Day to supervise the internal and external military affairs of India.
Earlier, there was also Patriarch Bodhidharma, who traveled thousands of miles to the Central Plains to spread the Dharma.
From this, it could be seen that India was also a corner of the world.
It was wrong for you to fire people like this.
Unfortunately …
India was too messy, too poor, and too remote.
Basically, they had no channels to speak out in the world.
Other than war and famine, they had nothing to do with the news.
They could only rely on the international students to argue with people on the Internet.
However, it was difficult for these people to win.
That was because the netizens from all over the world could make them speechless with one sentence: Where is the Indian Buddhist Kingdom today?
Looking at the news, Ling Ping'an walked into the restaurant.
