"Yaoguang, Yaoguang?" Grabbing Liu Yaoguang who had fallen to the ground, Ling Dong called out anxiously. Without thinking, a vigorous and gentle green Gang Qi was sent into Liu Yaoguang's body.
However, after circulating the Gang Qi, Ling Dong frowned. The situation in Liu Yaoguang's body was normal. Even her blood essence was not lost much. However, Liu Yaoguang had fainted on the ground again! "Husband … I'm fine … I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after some rest!" Liu Yaoguang said with difficulty.
"Yaoguang, you used the ancestral Soul Controlling Blood Talisman. What kind of loss did you suffer?" Ling Dong asked anxiously. At this time, Ling Dong was already regretting it. Did he go overboard just now?
In fact, when the two Heaven-dipper Realm old women were being stubborn, Ling Dong could have beaten them into submission with a thunderous force. As long as Ling Dong beat the two old women into submission, Liu Yaoguang wouldn't have to deal with this matter at all!
However, at that time, Ling Dong was extremely angry with the old woman who neglected her duties. At the same time, he also wanted to see Liu Yaoguang's opinion and had the intention to control Liu Yaoguang.
This woman, especially a woman like Liu Yaoguang who was smart and had her own power, if he didn't teach her a lesson, she might do something on her own one day.
Ling Dong took this opportunity to tell Liu Yaoguang his position in some aspects. Family was definitely a taboo for him, Ling Dong! If Liu Yaoguang dared to kiss his family in the future, she would have violated Ling Dong's taboo!
"Husband, I'm really fine! As for the specifics, about the Soul Controlling Blood Talisman, wait a while … I'll tell you in detail! "Liu Yaoguang glanced around. Her meaning was clear. There were too many people here, so it was hard to explain!
"Alright!" Ling Dong nodded and explained to Ling Yuanshan, who was a little nervous about his daughter-in-law. After all, in Ling Yuanshan's opinion, this daughter-in-law that Ling Dong brought was hurt for the Ling family. If something happened to her on her first visit, where would he put his old face?
"Father, we can't delay any longer. Immediately arrange for people to take over the Wang Family's business in Nanshan County and eliminate the remnants!" Pausing for a moment, Ling Dong added, "Father, you mustn't be soft-hearted in eliminating the remnants of the Wang Clan this time. You must be ruthless and annihilate them all. Otherwise, there will be no end of trouble!"
In Ling Dong's influence, although Ling Yuanshan was decisive in his actions, he was a little soft-hearted. In his previous life, when he lost in a family battle, this played a large part. Therefore, Ling Dong reminded him!
Ling Yuanshan's expression froze when he heard this. Ling Dong nodded heavily and said, "Dong-er, I know what to do! If we don't eliminate the Wang Family, it will be a disaster for our descendants! "
Seeing that his father understood this, Ling Dong was relieved.
"Oh, right. Father, I'll ask the garrison to cooperate with you. Otherwise, the Ling family might not have enough manpower!" After speaking, Ling Dong waved his hand and called Deputy General Xu over!
"My father wants to eliminate the remnants of the Wang Family. Do you know what to do?" Ling Dong did not treat Deputy General Xu well at all!
Deputy General Xu waited for Ling Dong to finish speaking before he hurriedly nodded and said, "Envoy, don't worry. I know what to do! I'll send people to set up checkpoints to hunt down the remnants of the Wang Family! In addition, I'll assign another five hundred soldiers to cooperate with Family Head Ling! If Family Head Ling needs anything in the future, just give me a call! "
Deputy General Xu's respectful attitude was almost inviting Ling Yuanshan to be the commander of the garrison!
Seeing that his son was so capable to make the usually arrogant garrison obedient, Ling Yuanshan did not hold back. He smiled and asked, "General Liu, can my Ling family's crystal ore tax return to the normal 10% in the future? The current 25% is a little difficult to bear!"
"What, 25% of the crystal ore tax?" Ling Dong's expression changed. Ling Dong knew that the government was exploiting them, but he did not expect it to be as high as 25%!
Seeing that Ling Dong was angry, Deputy General Xu's expression immediately became bitter. "Sir Envoy, Old Mister Ling, that has nothing to do with me. It was General Ma's doing. All the benefits have been split between them. You should know that Deputy General Xu has no power other than leading the troops! "Deputy General Xu immediately cried out in grievance!
The martial arts culture in Tian Gang Continent was very strong. Everyone had a few tricks up their sleeves, and there were many Xiantian Realm martial artists. Therefore, the tax collection in Tian Gang Continent was directly controlled by the military. Without the deterrence of martial arts, it was impossible to collect taxes!
"How about this, when I return, I'll return all the taxes that General Ma has taken all these years to the Ling family! And from now on, the Ling family's crystal ore tax will not be collected at all! However, the Ling family dominates the business world in Nan Shan County, so the business tax cannot be avoided. Otherwise, I will not be able to complete the task given by the higher-ups! "
Deputy General Xu raised his hands and promised, "Sir Envoy, please rest assured that the Ling family's business tax will be collected according to the lowest amount!"
When he said this, Deputy General Xu swallowed his teeth and blood! He could imagine that in the future, the Ling family would be a super rich tax payer in Nan Shan County. With this lowest amount, he would not be able to reap any benefits!
However, a quarter of an hour ago, he was still a small deputy general who had no benefits at all. A quarter of an hour later, he was able to sit in the position of a general and enjoy the benefits of a county. Although it was a little less, it was more than ten times better than before. He was satisfied!
Ling Yuanshan was shocked! This Deputy General Xu in front of him was giving away his benefits like the ocean! One had to know that the lowest tax was only five percent. Normally, ten percent was already very low. Most of the time, they would pay fifteen percent, and they still had to pay filial piety during festivals.
With Ling Yuanshan's experience in managing the family, he could calculate in the blink of an eye that with the current scale of the Ling Family's business, just by paying less business taxes, they could save nearly a million taels of silver a year! If the Ling family completely dominated the business world in Nan Shan County, they could save two to three million taels of silver a year without any problems!
Moreover, the mineral tax that was directly exempted was the biggest part. Ling Yuanshan estimated that saving sixty to seventy thousand taels of silver a year would not be a problem. It would only be more in the future! Not to mention other benefits, just the tax that was saved was already six to seven times the annual income of the Feng family, who used to be one of the three big families in Nan Shan County, along with the Ling family!
Ling Yuanshan also did not expect that a casual sentence from Ling Dong would bring such great benefits to the Ling family! Thinking of this, Ling Yuanshan felt a little proud!
Because all of this was brought to him by his precious son, Ling Dong!
After a moment of shock, Ling Yuanshan felt that he might have offended the military too much. He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Why don't we also pay the mineral tax according to …"
With Ling Dong's understanding of his father, Ling Yuanshan, he naturally knew what Ling Yuanshan meant. However, Ling Dong abruptly interrupted Ling Yuanshan's words.
"Father, don't worry about him! Deputy General Xu, as long as the Ling family's development is not hindered, I guarantee that you will be promoted another level in three years! After five years, I guarantee that you will be promoted two levels! "
Ling Dong's promise made Deputy General Xu ecstatic. Originally, he would not even be able to become a general in the local army. Now that he could at least be promoted by two levels, how could he not work hard for the Ling family in the future?!
Looking at Deputy General Xu's ecstatic expression, Ling Dong's lips curled into a cold smile. With his help, the Ling family would no longer need to care about the local army in three to five years' time.
When that time came, the Ling family's rapid growth would become a family power that even the empire would have to be wary of! Especially with the existence of a strong person like Ling Dong!
While the Ling family and the local army were working together to encircle the Wang family in Two World City, Ling Dong brought Liu Yaoguang back to the small courtyard where he used to live in the Ling family!
Even though the Ling family's courtyard had changed a lot in the past few years, Ling Dong's courtyard was still the same as before. Ling Dong saw that the rattan chair in the courtyard was still there. It looked a little old, but it was very clean! Someone must have been cleaning it every day!
"Yaoguang, you used the Soul-Blood Divine Talisman just now. Tell me quickly. Don't leave any hidden injuries in your body!" Ling Dong said with concern.
Hearing Ling Dong's concern, Liu Yaoguang's eyes turned red. Then, she revealed a bright smile. "I've embarrassed myself in front of you. It's just that those two evil servants were too outrageous! If they were still useful, I would have asked you to kill them! "
After a pause, Liu Yaoguang said, "Husband, actually, the Soul-Blood Divine Talisman is a treasure passed down from my ancestors. It is said that an ancient secret technique was used to control a servant's blood talisman. After it is made, it can control the servant's life and death.
However, after it is made, the blood talisman is stone-gray. If you want to punish a servant, you need to use Soul Blood to activate it. I'm not too sure about the specific damage. When my ancestors passed it down to me, they only said that it should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise, it will damage the soul! "Liu Yaoguang said.
"It will damage the soul?" When he heard these words, Ling Dong's mind suddenly became clear. No wonder he sensed that Liu Yaoguang's soul suddenly weakened.
If there was damage in other aspects, it might bring some trouble to Ling Dong. However, Ling Dong was not afraid of damage to the soul. With the Star Master Disk in hand, would Ling Dong still be afraid of damage to the soul?
Perhaps to understand Ling Dong's doubts, Liu Yaoguang continued, "Husband, once the Soul-Blood Divine Talisman is activated, it will be maintained for ten years before it will slowly fade into a stone talisman. If you want to use it again, you have to reactivate it! So, after ten years, you have to remember to reactivate it for Uncle Ling! "
"I see. Let's talk about it when the time comes!" Ling Dong's idea was very simple. After ten years, would the Ling family still need to use this Soul-Blood Divine Talisman to control the two old women in the Heaven-gang Realm?
"By the way, Yaoguang, this Soul-Blood Divine Talisman, did your ancestors pass down the secret method of making it?" Ling Dong's heart suddenly moved and he thought of this matter.
It was because Ling Dong saw that this Soul-Blood Divine Talisman was extremely powerful. If Ling Dong could get this secret method of making it, it might come in handy sometimes!
