In the fertile inland China, northeast China, and Hongzhou, a no-man's land, a new idea is now brewing - democracy.
More than half a year has passed, and the company that started out as a spark seems to have really become a raging fire.
The original Spark Trading Company has now become the Spark Group. With the support of businessmen and elites from the Shang Kingdom, the Spark Group has become the tenth largest force in Hongzhou by virtue of its industrial and commercial advantages, and continues to maintain rapid development.
In addition to the forces supported by the three surrounding countries, there are also several relatively large sects and families; but in comparison, the Spark Group has risen rapidly and has unlimited vitality, sweeping across Hongzhou in an unstoppable manner.
In business, the Spark Group has become the largest business group in Hongzhou, with a wide range of products, ranging from ordinary food to more exotic weapons, steel machinery, war machines, and extremely precious cultivation resources, including extremely rare liquid spiritual energy, spiritual materials, spiritual medicines, etc. from the outside world.
The emergence of these products allowed the Spark Group to influence and even indirectly control the situation in Hongzhou from a commercial perspective.
In terms of ideology, the chaotic Hongzhou welcomed a new ideology - democratic ideology; this ideology is not an ideology of self-cultivation, but an ideology of national construction and civilization. This ideology is like poison, which cannot be extinguished at all, and more and more people are beginning to accept this ideology.
They accepted this idea and fought for it; many oppressed slaves, civilians, low-level practitioners, and even small families and sects, etc., joined the camp of "democratic thought" and promoted the expansion of this new trend of thought.
This is a bottom-up change that has shown strong vitality from the beginning and is spreading rapidly. Especially after accepting democratic ideas, it can also obtain a lot of support from the Spark Group at a low price, which makes the situation even more uncontrollable.
Around Hongzhou, several countries were the first to be impacted, and the imperial power was actually shaken! It's not that all countries have not sniped and killed the top leaders of the Spark Group, but there are indeed masters and immortals inside the Spark Group! And even if the top leaders of the Spark Group were sniped and killed, the idea has spread out after all.
There are even many immortals and masters who have joined the wave of democratic thought. The Spark Group is the core of this thought and has begun to try to establish a "liberated zone".
Behind Hongzhou, in a remote place in the past, the Spark Group has built a brand new residential area with a vast area of hundreds of kilometers. This is not only a liberated area, but also the Spark Group's backyard and industrial production center.
The establishment of the liberated area means that the Spark Group has gained a firm foothold. It also means that a chess piece arranged by Li Xian has finally taken root!
Democratic thought is a sharp knife that has been inserted directly into the heart of the fertile land of China. It has penetrated deep into the bone marrow and is difficult to remove. What awaits the fertile land of China will be a storm of thought.
Compared with the "pseudo-democratic" constitutional monarchy of the Shang Dynasty, what Li Xian taught to Lan Yunhe and more than 3,000 people was true and absolute democracy, a revolution from the bottom up.
