After the System's embarrassment, Old Man Wei, who had taken the gold, hired three carriages from the dock and returned the ingot of gold.
Fang Ning was not surprised and immediately took it back. This was just a small test.
If one could be charmed by an ingot of gold, then it would be useless.
The group of people got into the carriages and headed to the Tower of Babel.
The carriages slowly traveled on the bumpy muddy road. It was obvious that there was no one repairing the road here.
After some time, the coachman said respectfully, "Young Master, we have arrived at the Tower of Babel."
Fang Ning stepped out of the carriage and looked up. In front of him stood a towering white tower that reached into the clouds.
Fang Ning stepped out of the carriage and looked up. A towering white tower stood in front of him, piercing through the clouds.
Because the tower really had half of its body in the clouds. The tower was surrounded by a high wall, and there were only four entrances in the east, west, north, and south.
The tower was surrounded by a high wall, and there were only four entrances: east, west, south, and north.
If it was a scholar, these bailiffs would bow and scrape. If it was a commoner, they would have to collect money.
Especially the craftsmen, such as musicians, doctors, and craftsmen, who were even more difficult.
Sure enough, no matter when, those who played with technology would not be able to handle those who played with management.
Fang Ning looked at the bailiffs carefully and found that they were all young people of sixteen or seventeen years old. They were definitely natives.
Fang Ning took a closer look at the bailiffs and realized that they were all sixteen to seventeen years old. They were definitely natives.
Fang Ning took a closer look at the bailiffs and found that they were all young people of sixteen or seventeen years old. They were definitely natives.
Fang Ning walked in with his people, and the bailiffs immediately greeted him respectfully.
Just as Fang Ning was about to walk in, a very anxious voice was heard.
"Young Master in front, please wait."
Fang Ning was not in a hurry. He turned his head and saw a group of bailiffs escorting Scholar Wang towards him. The leader was a person who looked like a county magistrate.
"Oh, if it isn't Magistrate Zhang?" Fang Ning asked calmly.
"Greetings, Young Master Fang. This villain has falsely accused you for no reason. I have already taken him down. Young Master, please deal with him!" Magistrate Zhang smiled flatteringly.
"Haha, what did Scholar Wang falsely accuse?" Fang Ning glanced at the disheveled Scholar Wang and asked calmly.
"This scoundrel dares to slander Young Master for practicing witchcraft, casting demonic spells, gathering people's hearts, and plotting a rebellion …" Magistrate Zhang glared at Scholar Wang fiercely, his eyes full of disgust.
Every single one of them was a heinous crime punishable by the extermination of one's family. However, none of this was out of Fang Ning's expectations. He had long known how evil people could be, and how evil they could be.
More often than not, the people who were most ruthless to you were the ones who were usually by your side. On the other hand, strangers didn't hurt you much.
"Why?" Scholar Wang asked in a low voice. "Why is it like this? That's right, it must be because of Squire Liu's background. I'm too stupid. Brother Feng clearly reminded me, but I thought the world wasn't as black as crows. "
Fang Ning looked at this former acquaintance and laughed coldly in his heart. This person was at death's door and still did not know what mistake he had made.
The imperial court would only be happy if he performed miraculous feats. This was because the people in the imperial court were still the people from the ancient times.
To them, power was naturally not as important as immortal souls.
What good would suppressing Fang Ning bring them?
There was no benefit at all.
They had seen the golden age of immortal souls. How could this imperial court be compared to such a golden age?
Now that an auspicious sign had appeared, how could they not worship it?
As for arresting and interrogating him, that was even more out of the question. After all, the main point of immortal souls had been summed up. At the very least, he couldn't be a bad person.
Fang Ning couldn't be bothered to get involved with this person. He waved his hand. "I'll have to trouble Magistrate Zhang to deal with him according to the law."
"Mm, the slanderer will be punished." Magistrate Zhang waved his hand, and a few servants dragged Scholar Wang away like a dead dog.
Seeing this, Scholar Feng opened his mouth to say something, but then sighed.
"Why, what do you want to say, Brother Feng?" Fang Ning asked playfully.
"Sigh, although Brother Wang brought this upon himself, his family is innocent …"
"Mm, the imperial court has recently issued a new law to abolish the practice of implicating others," Magistrate Zhang said hurriedly.
"Then I have nothing to say. Fortune and misfortune are determined by the heavens, and a man brings it upon himself." Scholar Feng sighed.
"Alright, let's go into the tower." Fang Ning couldn't be bothered with this kind of villain anymore, and walked straight into the tower.
"Hurry, hurry up and bring a chair for Master Immortal Fang. Bring some tea and snacks." Magistrate Zhang bustled about.
The group of servants was in a flurry of activity.
Lil Wu, Old Wei, and Scholar Feng looked at each other. It seemed that they, the regular followers, were completely outshone.
…
The Tower of Babel.
A group of people were waiting in the hall on the first floor, eagerly waiting for the immortal to come down.
Fang Ning went up to the 20th floor in one go. Of course, he did not walk. He was not that diligent, so he asked Sir System to open the elevator.
"This is the industrial information you wanted, but is it really okay to spoil things through excessive enthusiasm?" Sir System wondered.
"You don't understand. What do you mean by spoiling things through excessive enthusiasm? I'm someone who has operated civilizations more than a thousand times. I'm very experienced. "Fang Ning said nonchalantly.
"Then I'd like to see what you can do." Sir System said angrily.
Fang Ning copied the relevant knowledge of basic subjects, such as classical physics, chemistry, mathematics, and other knowledge, as well as the basic industrial chain, as well as the techniques to use extraordinary powers in a low-magic environment, and the combination of modern technology into a physical book, and then put it into the Jade Bracelet.
Then, he returned to the first floor and said to Magistrate Zhang, "Magistrate Zhang, report to the higher-ups. Just say that I've been given a gift by the heavens to change the world and rebuild the world."
"You're right, Master Immortal. I'll personally report to the imperial court." Magistrate Zhang said happily.
…
Three days later.
Fang Ning sat opposite the current imperial court's Minister of Power.
"I've seen your plan, Master Immortal. It's very good, and I've already ordered people to arrange it. Only by starting with the children can we change the world. You've really hit the nail on the head. "Minister Quan said seriously.
"Then it's up to you, Minister. Once it's done, the world will naturally reward you." Fang Ning said lightly.
Minister Quan wiped the corner of his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.
He was confident that no one was more afraid of the world after death than he was.
That was why he forced his 75-year-old body to not die. If it was a few years ago, when he was not even 40 years old, once he felt that his kidneys were weak, he would have thought of reincarnating …
After being a Minister for so many years, he did not think that he had done any evil deeds. He was conscientious in his work, not because he was a good person, but because he was in awe.
Unlike others, he had long felt that something as good as an immortal soul was unreal and could not last long.
After all, everyone knew how difficult it was for the wolves, insects, tigers, and leopards to survive in the wild. They lived precariously every day, and there was no reason for humans to be an exception.
This was the vision of a person who had climbed to a high position. There were many muddleheaded emperors, but muddleheaded ministers were rare.
Minister Quan and Fang Ning talked for a while, and both sides gained a lot.
There was basically no conflict of interest between the two sides. What Minister Quan wanted was nothing more than an immortal soul. After getting Fang Ning's promise, he was full of energy.
In order to prevent the old man from dying, Fang Ning specially gave him a bead that was used to nourish the body.
After that, Fang Ning once again lived a good life of eating, drinking, and playing in the Minister Quan's residence …
Why not look for the Emperor? It was very simple. The Emperor had a lot of things to do and did little work.
This was the experience that Fang Ning had summed up after more than a thousand civilization journeys. Do not look for the nominal Boss, look for the practical Second Brother.
At least before the Second Brother overthrew the Boss, the Military Advisors would be safe.
"Mr. Rich Boss, I finally understand how you got those thousand times of civilization experience. If it were me, I could do it too …" Sir System suddenly said.
"You should have heard of the story of Columbus erecting an egg, right? Before he broke the bottom of the egg, not many people would have thought that it could be done like this. "Fang Ning said in disdain.
"Uh, you're right." Sir System said honestly.
"Right, how did you trick the great green insect?" Fang Ning asked casually, "Has the family's finances deteriorated to this extent?"
"Now that there are no resources from the outside coming in, it's all internal circulation. Of course, I have to try my best to tap into my potential." Sir System said confidently, "The great green insect is so hungry that it's going into hibernation, so I took it over and reused it."
"So you stole it?" Fang Ning was shocked.
"Don't make it sound so bad. I bought it with the price of two meals, okay? I won't do that, but after eating, it still chose to hibernate. After all, it's all gone, "Sir System said resentfully.
"Sigh, the productivity here is low, we can't afford to support a labor force like it. Wait until I'm done with the new law movement, then I'll let it in." Fang Ning sighed.
"Up to you, I won't return it anyway." Sir System said firmly.
