045, If you don’t pay compensation, start a war!

"change?"
Seeing Wu Sifan's expression, Dugu Xiaotian was stunned.
"Your Majesty, do you think this edict is inappropriate?"
Dugu Xiaotian asked with a frown.
"Do you think it fits?"
Wu Sifan said calmly.
The first part of this edict basically denounces the crimes of the Great Yan Dynasty for sending people to assassinate him. This is a fact and there is nothing to change.
Wu Sifan is concerned about the subsequent compensation issue.
What Dugu Xiaotian wrote was to ask the Great Yan Dynasty to make compensation for this matter: one million top-grade spiritual stones, one top-grade spiritual weapon, three seventh-grade elixirs, and ten sixth-grade elixirs.
There seems to be nothing wrong with this compensation.
The popular currencies in the Eastern Barren Continent are mainly money and spirit stones.
Gold and some black iron can be compressed and refined into materials for making some weapons, but their value cannot be compared with spiritual stones, so they are only commonly used among common people.
1 tael of gold = 10 taels of silver = money.
But even a low-grade spiritual stone requires 100 taels of gold.
The exchange ratio for spiritual stones is 1:10.
1 top-grade spiritual stone = 10 high-grade spiritual stones = 100 medium-grade spiritual stones = 1,000 low-grade spiritual stones.
These spiritual stones, which can be used to assist cultivation, are the currency among monks.
However, the most common ones are mainly low-grade and medium-grade spiritual stones.
Due to the barren territory, top-grade spiritual minerals and top-grade spiritual minerals in the Eastern Barren Continent are very rare.
Even within the territory of the Dawu Dynasty, there are only three small top-grade spiritual mines discovered so far, each of which can produce about 100,000 top-grade spiritual stones every year.
Coupled with taxes from other places, the Dawu Dynasty's annual tax revenue is only about one million high-quality spiritual stones.
Magical weapons are divided into: mortal weapons, treasured weapons, magic weapons, spiritual weapons and legendary fairy weapons.
Ordinary weapons are ordinary weapons, and most monks use treasure weapons and magic weapons.
Due to the difficulty in making spiritual weapons, even the most common low-grade spiritual weapon would cost more than 100,000 top-grade spiritual stones.
The best spiritual weapons have a price but no market. They occasionally appear at some auctions, and they can easily cost millions of high-quality spiritual stones.
As for elixirs, they are divided into grades one to nine, corresponding to the nine realms of practice.
The seventh-grade elixir can be used to refine elixirs for use by powerful people in the Hedao realm.
Sixth-grade elixirs can be refined to be used by strong people in the Return to Void Realm.
Therefore, Dugu Xiaotian's request for compensation from the Great Yan Dynasty can be said to be a lion's mouth opened wide.
With so many things, it would be painful for any dynasty to take them out.
But after all, it was the Great Yan Dynasty that was wrong in this matter. They sent people to assassinate King Da Wu and were caught.
So as long as the Great Yan Dynasty doesn't want to start a war, this thing can still be taken out by gritting one's teeth.
But Wu Sifan originally wanted to use this incident to force the Great Yan Dynasty to go to war.
How could he accept compensation from the Great Yan Dynasty?
"Then what do you think is appropriate, Your Majesty?"
Dugu Xiaotian asked cautiously.
Wu Sifan sneered and said: "Ten million top-grade spiritual stones, ten top-grade spiritual weapons, and three eighth-grade elixirs!"
"that's it!"
"Tell Lord Dayan that if you don't compensate, we will start a war!"
"hiss……"
All the officials couldn't help but gasp.
Dugu Xiaotian twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, this compensation is too much... It is absolutely impossible for the Great Yan Dynasty to agree to it!"
"Then let's start a war!"
Wu Sifan said coldly: "Are we, the Great Wu Dynasty, still afraid of his great Yan?"
"this……"
Dugu Xiaotian suddenly realized that perhaps this was Wu Sifan's true purpose.
The officials also looked at each other in confusion, seeming to understand Wu Sifan's thoughts.
But Wu Sifan had no intention of explaining to them. He looked at Dugu Xiaotian, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Did you hear clearly what I said?"
Dugu Xiaotian was shocked and could only sigh helplessly, cupped his hands and said: "I obey the decree!"
Wu Sifan nodded, looked at the officials, and said, "Who else has something to report?"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
"speak!"
"The reform of titles and military system that the king mentioned before has been announced and implemented from the royal city..."
Next, all the officials came forward one by one and reported some issues that existed in the dynasty last month that required King Wu to personally review, so that Wu Sifan could make decisions.
However, all the officials kept in mind Dugu Xiaotian's previous advice, and no one dared to cross the bottom line. Even when they spoke, they were conscientious and cautious, and did not dare to go against Wu Sifan's wishes at all.
This made Wu Sifan feel more relaxed. It seemed that killing the hundreds of ministers today was still useful.

Two hours later.
The meeting is basically over.
After Wu Sifan finished handling all matters, big and small, he announced his resignation from the court.
The ministers left the hall one by one.
Soon, only Wu Sifan, Cao Zhengchun, Wei Eunuch and Li Chunfeng were left in the palace.
"Eunuch Wei, you go and do your work first!"
Wu Sifan looked at Eunuch Wei and said calmly.
Eunuch Wei twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at Cao Zhengchun and Li Chunfeng next to him, and sighed helplessly.
It seems that now even he is excluded from the king's trust!
Thinking of what the late king had told him, Eunuch Wei sighed deeply in his heart again, cupped his hands and said, "I obey the order!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
"Cao Zhengchun, how are things going in Dongchang?"
Wu Sifan withdrew his gaze, looked at Cao Zhengchun and asked.
"Your Majesty, the core staff, Lao Nu, have been selected and are being trained. They will be ready for action in half a month at most!"
Cao Zhengchun replied respectfully.
"very good!"
Wu Sifan nodded and said: "If you need anything, just report it. What I need is a sharp sword that can sweep the world!"
"Old slave accepts the order!"
Cao Zhengchun bowed and saluted.
Wu Sifan looked at Li Chunfeng and said: "Taoist Master, I have been practicing these past few days, and I always feel that the fortune of the royal city cannot be condensed and is disintegrating all the time. Does the Taoist Master have any good ideas to solve this problem?"
Li Chunfeng smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, I feel good. Now, although Your Majesty has the Heshi Bi and the God List to carry the great martial arts luck, there is nothing to suppress the luck. If you want to condense the luck, you must find a way to find something that can suppress the luck.
s things."
"A thing that suppresses luck?"
Wu Sifan frowned.
Li Chunfeng nodded and continued: "It's just that this thing that suppresses luck is extremely unsuitable to make and find. I suggest that the king build an ancestral temple first to support the golden dragon of luck."
"In the past few days, I will try to think of ways to transform the royal city's ground and build a formation. This can temporarily condense the luck, and at the same time strengthen the royal city, allowing the luck golden dragon to grow, so that it can be promoted to the dynasty in the future!"
"good!"
Wu Sifan nodded.
The system only said that it would unify the Eastern Wasteland and promote the dynasty within five years.
But he had no idea what conditions were needed to advance to the dynasty.
Now that Li Chunfeng knows it, it couldn't be better.
"Then this matter will trouble the Taoist Priest!"
Li Chunfeng hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, your words are serious. This is a matter for minor ministers. However, building the formation may require a lot of spiritual stone materials. Your Majesty needs to open the treasury to provide them!"
"No problem!"
Wu Sifan nodded and said: "Whatever you need, the Taoist Priest can just ask me directly!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Chunfeng bowed respectfully.
Wu Sifan took a deep breath, stood up and stretched, then suddenly looked to the north, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "I wonder how Dian Wei and the others are doing..."
