Jiang Yao recruited three hundred mortal boys and girls, and of course it was not just as simple as being slaves. He was not an arrogant and lewd noble, so what was he doing with so many slaves?
His main purpose is to cultivate a core team to effectively manage the people, increase the output of spiritual rice, harvest the will power of heaven and earth, and strengthen the will power combat skills.
Will cultivating them delay my own cultivation breakthrough?
Won't.
Because practicing cultivation does not mean that the longer you stay in seclusion, the better. It is about having a certain degree. The so-called golden mean, too much is not enough. If you practice for too long, it may damage the meridians and spiritual points, which is counterproductive.
This is the same as physical exercise.
Therefore, although Jiang Yao practices diligently and is not lazy, he still has a lot of free time.
What do you do with this free time?
Of course, rich people use it for enjoyment, while poor people use it to make money and find resources.
Therefore, Jiang Yao is by no means neglecting his duties. He must always find something meaningful to do and not waste time.
He calculated that as long as the social governance level of the Han Dynasty was achieved, the annual income from spiritual rice would increase by hundreds of thousands of spiritual jade!
These three hundred people were all selected to be literate.
Although mortal society is at the lowest level, it has a certain degree of social civilization and writing is useful. In addition, since he is a descendant of martial arts, it is not surprising that he is literate.
"Chu Heng, pick out all the qualified ones first." Jiang Yao glanced at the three hundred seedlings.
Of course, Chu Heng could become an important household official only after Jiang Yao personally checked it. Without a word of nonsense, he took out the spirit-detecting talisman that he had prepared long ago.
This is a first-level talisman purchased by Jiang Yao in advance. It is much cheaper than the spirit-testing beads, but each one can only be used ten times.
The three hundred mortals breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the lord did not kill anyone to establish his authority and did not think he was evil.
When many people heard that their cultivation qualifications were being tested, their whole bodies trembled with excitement, as if they were in a dream.
The side spirit talismans passed one by one. Some people's talismans did not light up when tested, some emitted black light, and some emitted red light, but most of them were black light.
There are even a few that emit blue light.
Soon, all three hundred people had completed the test, and Jiang Yao already knew what was going on.
"Lord, there is one person above B, two people below B, thirteen people above C, and twenty people below C... There are a total of one hundred and twenty-three qualified people." Chu Heng replied respectfully.
One hundred and eight? Jiang Yao's eyes lit up and he looked amused. This is a good number.
By cultivating these mortals, you can get a group of the most loyal disciples, because you have completely changed their destiny, and you are their god.
In addition to teaching them the ways of herdsmen and the art of education, those with good qualifications should also teach them exercises and guide them in their cultivation.
When the disciples enter the warrior class, they will be used to teach more mortal disciples how to practice.
These people who have transformed from mortals into martial arts are the most reliable foundation.
The True Realm has never prohibited mortals from practicing. Mortals just don't have the conditions to practice. After all, many poor families will become mortals after a few generations. A very small number of mortals are still martial arts practitioners in their father's generation.
He teaches disciples in his own territory, and as long as the scale is not large, no one will meddle in his own business.
The so-called mortals are actually the descendants of martial arts cultivators. Many people are qualified to practice martial arts, and there are even many people with excellent qualifications.
Among the millions of mortals, there are still 300,000 people under the age of 20. There must be 20,000 to 30,000 people with cultivation qualifications.
This potential is huge, it just depends on how it is operated.
"One is on top, two are on bottom." Jiang Yao nodded, "Come forward."
Two teenagers and a girl stepped forward with trepidation and excitement. Their legs were weak and their bodies were shaking violently.
There are both great expectations and great fears.
They never thought that one day they would not only be able to enter the legendary lord's mansion, but also meet the god-like lord and have their qualifications tested.
Among the three, a handsome young man performed slightly better and at least walked normally.
The girl who performed the worst could not move her legs and could only grit her teeth and drag herself forward.
"Minions, my servants pay my respects..." The three of them stepped forward with great courage, as if Jiang Yao were an ancient dragon.
In fact, Jiang Yao has restrained the pressure of martial arts. This is entirely due to the pressure of status.
"That's all. Don't call yourself a slave." Jiang Yao raised his feather fan in the air, stopped the three of them from kneeling, and then looked at them.
A handsome young man, a dark and thin young man, and a pleasant-looking girl. All three of them were wearing kudzu clothes and had rough hands. They only relied on their youth and youth to hide their haggard look.
At first glance, he looks like a miserable serf.
I can’t help but feel a little confused about the ginger medicine.
Four or five years ago, I was just like them.
Not even as good as them, at least their parents are not fake.
Jiang Yao looked them over, then bullied the three of them that they were not martial arts cultivators, and unscrupulously used the powerful soul power of the Pure Soul Realm to sense their souls carefully, but did not detect any filth.
His soul is relatively pure and his character is not bad, which is good.
"You three, from now on, are my direct disciples." Jiang Yao showed a smile, "If you wish to become my master, please kneel down and salute."
What?
Personal disciple?
The lord, who is like a god-man, wants to accept me as his personal disciple?
The three of them were all confused. For a moment they thought they had heard wrongly, or thought it was an hallucination or a dream.
The handsome young man was the first to react. He knelt down on the ground with a plop, kowtowed heavily with a thud, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes! Yes! Disciple Jingxian, pay homage to the master! Pay homage to the master!"
Two lines of hot tears burst out of his eyes and fell to the ground. He tried his best to suppress the urge to cry, and his heart was filled with endless surprises.
Three generations.
Since the death of my great-great-grandfather, he was unable to become a martial artist due to lack of resources and became a mortal.
My grandfather and father were also slaves.
But many times my father told himself with both frustration and pride that his great-great-grandfather was a samurai and an adult who lived hundreds of years.
Generations of the Jing family have dreamed of becoming martial arts cultivators again. However, the hope is so slim and the reality is so despairing.
But today, he is actually going to be accepted as a direct disciple by the lord himself!
Jingxian knelt on the ground, clasping his hands tightly on the cracks in the bricks, looking at a little ant crawling on the ground with clear eyes, knowing that this was not a dream.
it is true!
The other two people woke up when they saw Jing Xian bowing down. They knelt down in panic together, kowtowed like garlic, and followed Jing Xian's trembling voice and said:
"Yes! Yes! Disciple Lin An pays homage to the master! Pays homage to the master! Woo hoo..."
"Yes! Yes! Disciple Lin Chan'er pays homage to the Lord! Pays homage to the Master! Yingying..."
Yu Yan couldn't help but be a little shocked when he saw the three people being so excited that they couldn't control themselves.
She finally understood why Jiang Yao didn't recruit martial arts disciples, but wanted to recruit mortals as his disciples.
Judging from the behavior of these people at this time, Jiang Yao is their reincarnation benefactor. As long as their character is not bad, they will be loyal to Jiang Yao in this life.
The qualifications of Class B are already excellent. With these three people following Jiang Yao, it should not be difficult for them to become masters of the martial arts in the future.
Jiang Yao Feather Fan lifted the three of them up with one move.
"Okay, since you want to worship me as your teacher, I will accept you as my direct disciples. My teacher's surname is Jiang Mingyao, and my given name is Zhongda. Do you remember it?"
The three of them nodded like chickens pecking at rice, and said with tears in their eyes that they remembered.
Next, there are thirty-three boys and girls with C-level qualifications.
Jiang Yao was cautious, so he still used his soul power to pass through each person, and then eliminated five.
These five people have dirty souls. They either have evil intentions or misbehave and are vicious. There is also a woman who has had affairs with several men.
"I will accept you as inner disciples..." Jiang Yao said to the remaining twenty-eight people with C-level qualifications.
The twenty-eight people were equally excited and could not control themselves, and they all knelt down and kowtowed to their master.
Finally, those with Ding and other qualifications were admitted as outer disciples, and some of them were also eliminated.
There are exactly one hundred and eight third-class disciples in total.
One hundred and eight? Jiang Yao looked amused. This is a good number.
The dozen or so people who had qualifications but were eliminated were all sent back without being slaves. This was a cruel blow to them. But who said their character was corrupt?
A young man with evil thoughts or a dissolute and misbehaving girl cannot stay in the lord's mansion.
The remaining people were all arranged as slaves.
Third-class disciples cannot call themselves slaves, they can only call themselves disciples.
"Chu Heng, I leave it to you to decide how they will arrange it. Even their families must be well thought out. In the lord's mansion, even if you are a slave, you must live a decent life." Jiang Yao will arrange the arrangements.
Leave the matter to the chief envoy.
"promise!"
At present, the disciples have just been recruited and they are not yet qualified, but the establishment of the Yamen still needs to be arranged as soon as possible.
"Send an order for mortals from each manor to recommend talented people who are literate and knowledgeable to gather at the lord's mansion." Jiang Yao gave another order, "Don't be harsh on the road, and you must arrive within half a month."
The Lord's Mansion is located in the center of the territory, only about five hundred miles away from the edge of the territory. Even a mortal can reach it in half a month.
After that, ginger medicine was spread to Zhu Yan, an official.
"My lord has met my lord." Zhu Yan was calculating the recent expenses of the lord's mansion. When she heard the news, she thought it was to report the accounts, so she came with the accounts.
"Zhu Yan, w mortals like this don't use spiritual jade, they can only barter, which is a lot of inconvenience." Jiang Yao handed Zhu Yan a picture.
On the picture is something that is round on the outside and square on the inside, with four words on it: Mingshan Tongbao.
Lord, this is...
She was confused, but she heard Jiang Yao continue: "I call this copper coin, and it is made of brass. You can develop the copper mountain, cast copper coins, and circulate them among the common people..."
Zhu Yan only understood what Jiang Yao meant after listening to Jiang Yao's words.
The Lord actually wants to use this copper coin as a spiritual jade for martial arts cultivators!
It's a good method. But can this method really increase the financial resources of the territory? Can it really increase the production of spiritual rice, spiritual silk, and spiritual tea?
What she doesn't know is that the monetary system is an important tool for improving productivity.
Jiang Yao waited for this warrior-consummate woman to finish digesting her words before throwing out the second one.
"In addition, I, Mingshan, will also set up a Mingshan Jade Shop. These are the regulations. Please read them carefully." A carved jade slip flew into Zhu Yan's hand.
Zhu Yan's consciousness swept in, and she was even more surprised.
It turns out that this jade shop is to store spiritual jade that is temporarily not used by martial arts practitioners. As long as one hundred spiritual jade is saved for one year, you will get the benefit of three pieces of spiritual jade, which is called "storage interest".
In addition, martial arts cultivators without resources can borrow spiritual jade from the jade shop, and they will have to pay an extra five yuan a year, called "loan interest."
The address of the Jade Shop is right next to the Lord's Mansion, which makes it easier for the Jade Shop to be protected by its army of soldiers.
In this way, the casual cultivators who store spiritual jades will not be afraid of being killed and robbed of their wealth, because their spiritual jades are all in the jade shop.
This method was something she had never heard of.
At first glance, it seems like a wonderful idea. But when I think about it more carefully, I feel that there are many flaws.
