During the meeting, Jiang Sibai studied with his master as always, and his soul wandered far away.
Oh, and now Qiuniang beside him is also wandering in the world.
This lineage of inheritance is really solid.
Nowadays, the elders of Luo Yun Fairyland have retired one after another, giving up their power and positions to the new generation of second generation disciples.
As the second-generation chief disciple, Jiang Sibai naturally cannot be absent from various conferences and meetings.
And Qiuniang is now the person in charge of Xu State, so of course she cannot miss this kind of meeting about mortals.
"Now, please Qiu Shuangzi, please tell me."
Headmaster Yuan Ling suddenly mentioned a person's name.
Qiuniang is still confused, who are you calling?
Jiang Sibai came back to his senses and looked at his master with searching eyes, as if asking: Why does this name sound familiar?
Taoist Mo Shang came to his senses at that time and immediately kicked Qiuniang on the butt, causing her to stagger.
Headmaster Yuan Ling felt like he wanted to cover his face at that moment.
It’s so embarrassing. Is this really the disciple you taught?
And the three grandparents and grandchildren were really too much for her to bear.
She had no choice but to say again: "Qiu Shuangzi, please report on the recent situation in Xu State."
Only then did Qiuniang have a sudden expression: Her name is ‘Qiu Shuangzi’!
Then he started to say in a daze: "Xu Guo, it's very good there now."
Headmaster Yuan Ling felt discouraged for a while, and she said, "What's so good about it, and what are its shortcomings?"
Only then did Qiuniang come back to her senses and began to enter the state of mind and said, "That's right, Xucheng is very prosperous now, and many residents around Xucheng have begun to move to farther places."
"The newly succeeded King Xu is also very obedient and always regards me as his eldest sister."
"Ahem!"
Taoist Mo Shang couldn't listen anymore and coughed dryly.
Only then did Qiuniang wake up, and then she said with a smile: "King Xu is also organizing more people to open up wasteland. I believe that in another ten years, there will be many villages on the plains from the east of Xucheng to the coastline."
"In another hundred years, this place will be a prosperous place with a prosperous population."
"Even the Chu State next door has been eyeing us, and we don't know if they will come over."
Headmaster Yuan Ling nodded slightly after hearing this and said: "At least for now, the Purple Gold Immortal Sect is afraid of reaching out randomly because of Luo Yun's power."
Then she looked at Jiang Sibai and said, "Xiaobai, where is your Ji Guo?"
Qiuniang breathed a sigh of relief and then quietly retreated.
Jiang Sibai showed an expression of sudden surprise, then blinked his eyes and looked at Headmaster Yuan Ling with an innocent look on his face.
Headmaster Yuan Ling was speechless. What kind of people did he meet?
She could only repeat: "How's it going over there in Ji Guo?"
Jiang Sibai nodded and said absently: "Very good."
Yuan Ling: "..."
Could you siblings be a little more in sync?
She looked at Taoist Mo Shang with a fierce look. They are all good juniors brought up by this senior brother!
Taoist Mo Shang trembled at that time, then stood up and wiped his disciple's buttocks and said: "Junior sister, you have asked the wrong person. Xiaobai has been staying in the mountains during this period, how can he have time to manage his fiefdom and Jiguo."
"The affairs in Ji State are now managed by my second disciple Du Heng. According to what she said, the population of Ji State and Xilai Territory has been fully developed, and is no worse than Xu State today."
"The only doubt is that the land suitable for farming in Ji Country is limited, and it will not take a hundred years to reach the limit of development."
After hearing this, Headmaster Yuan Ling hesitated a little and said: "This is indeed a problem."
Then she sighed and said: "Speaking of which, these are things in the mortal world and should not be a problem for us."
"It's just that we who practice Taoism also cultivate virtue. In ancient times, people lived in the wilderness, and practitioners fought ferocious beasts and chopped thorns to create a place for the people to survive."
"Now that the great prosperity of humanity is approaching, practitioners like us should continue to think more about the people to avoid unspeakable things happening."
The so-called ‘things that cannot be said’ are war.
With more people and less land, it will inevitably lead to fights and even wars, which Yuan Ling absolutely does not want to see.
But how to solve this problem is really difficult for everyone to decide.
Yuan Ling has a big vision in mind, and this is what convinces everyone.
Now she has raised a large-scale problem, and everyone is working together to find a solution.
Someone immediately suggested: "It is better to let more mortals migrate to neighboring countries. Most of the neighboring countries need people, and we have too many people here."
Jiang Sibai didn't feel sleepy as soon as he heard this, and he immediately wanted to object.
However, Headmaster Yuan Ling has already said: "This is not possible. The people of Ji State and even Xu State have become accustomed to the system under our rule. If we let them migrate out, wouldn't it be equivalent to harming others?"
"As we all know, most of the nobles in the world treat common people as pigs and dogs. I'm afraid that the people we migrated to will all die tragically under the exploitation of the nobles soon."
"This is not practicing virtue, but committing evil!"
The man was a little embarrassed to be talked about by Headmaster Yuan Ling, but he was not annoyed at all. He was just troubled and said: "Then I really can't think of any good way. I can't let the three powerful officials of Ji State raise troops to fight for it.
The territory of another country, right?”
After hearing this, Headmaster Yuan Ling began to ponder and said, "This is an idea. Under our rule, there will soon be more people and less land, but the world is still vast and sparsely populated."
Then she still objected: "Actually, this is not a good idea. It is not a good thing to start a war all the time. Moreover, relocating people afterwards is troublesome and prone to trouble. It can only be regarded as a bad idea."
Everyone felt a headache again, and someone suggested: "Why not limit the number of births in Ji Country and curb population growth?"
Headmaster Yuan Ling objected at that time: "This is a bad policy. It is tantamount to completely vetoing Xiaobai's previous political orders in Jiguo, which is not advisable."
The proposer shrugged and said there was nothing he could do.
When Headmaster Yuan Ling saw that no one had any suggestions, he glared at Jiang Sibai and said, "You can't let us come up with a solution for your territory, right?"
Jiang Sibai was glared at and could only say: "Actually, my previous decree was to encourage childbirth, which is indeed inappropriate."
"Now that the population is sufficient, these decrees can be cancelled. Instead, it is better to encourage business value and allow the excess population to engage in handicraft production and business."
"In addition, we have been promoting fighting spirit. When the time comes, it will also be a development for more warriors who practice fighting spirit to protect the world of trade."
Headmaster Yuan Ling was happy when she heard this. She said: "This is a good idea, but this strategy is slow and may not be able to solve the urgent task."
"Tell me, do you have any other good ideas?"
Jiang Sibai couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard it, and then he could only do something simple and crude.
He said: "Since the urgent priority is the lack of land, then we will create more land."
"There are many Luo Yun veins in the Ji Kingdom, so there is not much complete land suitable for farming. Then we will level these hills and create farmland!"
"By the way, it just so happens that the soil left behind by the flat mountains can be used to fill in the sea, and a lot of land can be filled in."
The whole place fell silent for a moment.
I have to say that Jiang Sibai's idea is indeed simple and crude, but it is also a practical method.
Practitioners are the most productive force in the world. They move mountains and fill seas. It's simple.
It’s just that no one had this idea before.
After Master Yuan Ling came to his senses, he nodded happily and said, "I knew you were the only one who had this pattern in Luo Yunxian."
Therefore, the first topic of this meeting has been discussed.
"Then comes the second topic. The Yunmo Jedi suddenly came out in force and launched a fierce attack on the three righteous schools in the southwest. How should we deal with this matter?"
