"I will leave a few legions to stay here. You go down to collect taxes with my orders. If any temple dares to disobey, then I will destroy the temple and destroy its orthodoxy! What I want is not discussion, but their obedience!
"
Lu Yu said these words calmly, and a chilling atmosphere suddenly filled the air.
"We will obey," said the Lord of the Stars.
Lu Yu extended his finger again and said: "Second point, condensing the temple's money is just drinking poison to quench thirst. I will introduce Dongsheng Bank to support you and acquire high-level sects, especially the weapon refining and alchemy sects, and completely transform them into
Officials have it.”
Official?
This is a new term, and many star owners have a look of confusion in their eyes.
Lu Yu explained: "From now on, these sects are no longer external forces, but industries directly owned by the government. The profits generated by these sects will be completely confiscated to support government operations and even feed agriculture."
A Star Lord was shocked and said: "My lord, do you want to recruit them? These people have ulterior motives. Even if we forcefully acquire them, I'm afraid we will have second thoughts."
Lu Yu said: "It doesn't matter, I will send people to assist you in investigating these. All acquired sects must be cleaned from beginning to end. First check the person himself, and then check his family background to ensure that he is innocent and serves the government. In addition,
The original sect leaders, deputy sect leaders, and elders of the sect will be given grades to officials according to their abilities and enjoy luck and blessings. With this in mind, they will not resist."
This is a new road that many people have never heard of before, so after Lu Yu finished speaking, many star owners still looked confused.
"I heard that my lord has done similar things in Dongsheng Galaxy. Almost all the weapon refining sects in Dongsheng Galaxy have been converted to government ownership. I think my lord must have some experience," said a Star Lord.
Others were immediately relieved.
Lu Yu's drastic reforms in Dongsheng Galaxy have long attracted the attention of the entire heaven.
But many people only know that such a thing exists, but they have no way of knowing the real details.
"Let these sects serve the government, and the government's income will be much higher in the future, even exceeding the agricultural tax!" Several Star Masters looked at each other, and they could all see the excitement in each other's eyes.
Before this, the government and the sect had always been two forces, incompatible with each other.
"To increase income, only secondly, these officials and sects must take responsibility. If there is a famine in a certain place, if these officials and sects are nearby, they should distribute food nearby to help all living beings."
"Especially spiritual veins and spiritual mines. These two categories must be completely monopolized by the government. All involved forces, no matter who they are, must be eliminated! In the Imperial Capital Territory, I will not allow any forces to release spiritual stones privately!"
Lu Yu said again.
This time, Lu Yu revealed his purpose.
Whether it is the abolition of agricultural taxes or the acquisition of sects, they are only secondary matters.
The most important thing today is to monopolize the output of spiritual stones!
Prior to this, most of the spiritual mines were controlled by the imperial court.
However, aristocratic families, sects, holy lands, and many forces have their own spiritual mines, and the spiritual stones produced are also different.
Lingshi is the hard currency of heaven, and for convenience, banks in various places usually issue Lingshi silver notes.
It's just that these banknotes are uneven. Although the imperial court has issued official banknotes, private banknotes are prevalent and it has no jurisdiction at all.
