"Because the Xiong family is the most powerful family in Mengyu County, they are only one step away from becoming the new famous family in Yu County!"
Yang Tianggang said quietly: "As long as the Xiong family can become a famous family in Yu County, it will be one of the first-class forces below the Shaotian Sect in the entire Yu County! The life and death of Mengyu County has nothing to do with them!"
The tyrannical Xiong family was like a huge mountain, which made the four martial arts monks in the hall breathless. After another moment of silence, Zhang Tiejiang said: "What about the other two powerful people in this county, the Ning family and the Yu family? What do people say?”
Yang Tiangang didn't need to answer this time. Xu Sanniang on the side guessed: "I'm afraid the Ning family and the Yu family won't embarrass the Xiong family at this time!"
Zhang Tiejiang asked puzzledly: "Why, aren't you afraid that the Xiong family will turn over them after becoming a famous family in Yu County? Besides, the county's Linggu production has been reduced, and what the Xiong family has done, aren't Ning and Yu the same?" loss?"
Xu Sanniang smiled bitterly and said: "It is precisely because the Xiong family is at the critical moment of being promoted to a famous family. If anyone wants to embarrass them at this time, the Xiong family will definitely risk their lives. That's why the other two families have taken action. Besides, Ning and Yu both have real-life monks. They are a powerful county, and the losses caused by the huge locust plague are only a 30-40% reduction in production. The Xiong family only reduced the grain tax by one-third, probably to take care of the emotions of these two families! "
Yang Junshan listened to the words of several warrior realm monks in the hall. What was different from what they thought was, why did the Shaking Sky Sect agree so easily to the Xiong family's approach
Naturally, the Shaking Sky Sect would not fail to see the principle of taking advantage of the situation, but the Shaking Sky Sect still acquiesced in allowing the Xiong family to do this. At most, it only allowed the Xiong family to charge forward and take the blame for the Shaking Sky Sect. It can be seen that the fundamental reason is not greed for dreams. The reason for this little spiritual valley in Yu County is because the Shaking Sky Sect really has an extremely urgent need for this little spiritual valley!
From the red rust rough stone incident to the current grain tax incident, Yang Junshan seemed to see a huge creature standing on the edge of the cliff trying to grab every straw to save his life. He would not even estimate whether the slender straw could survive. bear its huge weight.
With Yang Tiangang's intervention, Tuqiu Village's grain tax collection was completed quickly, which was expected by everyone. However, this was not the case in other villages. The production was originally reduced by two-thirds due to the giant locust plague. After the Shantian Sect's grain tax was promulgated, it can be said that the entire villages in Mengyu County were filled with complaints.
However, the Shaking Sky Sect had great prestige in the entire Yu County. Although Zhongling Farmers was reluctant, they did not have the courage to challenge the authority of the Shaking Sky Sect. In the end, they gritted their teeth and paid the full grain tax, not to mention collecting the grain tax. During the process, upper-level monks from the Shaking Sky Sect kept coming down to urge the investigation. Especially the Xiong family, because this matter was related to the fate of the family, so they patrolled the villages and towns in Mengyu County under the banner of the Shaking Sky Sect. Anyone who resisted Emotional spiritual farmers are often reprimanded, abused, threatened, and even beaten severely by these people!
In Huangtu Town, Tuyuan Village was the one who paid the full grain tax immediately after Tuqiu Village. The former mayor of Tuyuan Village was Qian Chunlai. After this man went to the town to serve, Tuyuan Village The village leader fell on his clan brother Qian Yinglai.
Although Qian Chunlai had squeezed out his biggest competitor Yang Tianggang this time, he wanted to get recommendations from Liu Zhenshou from the outer disciples of the Shaking Sky Sect. This collection of grain taxes was undoubtedly his best opportunity to perform.
It is said that Qian Chunlai caused a lot of anger in Tuyuan Village. There are rumors that an old spiritual farmer in Tuyuan Village was forced to death by Qian Chunlai's brothers because he did not want to pay the grain tax. Even within the Qian family, there was a dispute over money. Chunlai's actions have been criticized a lot.
However, when it comes to whether he can become an outer disciple of Shaotian Sect, Qian Chunlai obviously doesn't care about this expedition.
The negative impact that grain had brought to him, and under the suppression of the Qian brothers, the voices of criticism within the Qian family were finally suppressed. Only on the second day after the complete grain tax collection in Tuqiu Village, Tu Yuan The village's grain tax was also paid in full.
At this time, Qian Chunlai finally became a popular candidate for the outer disciples of the Shaotian Sect in the Wasteland. It is said that he also received the support of a direct descendant of the Xiong family, and that descendant of the Xiong family was also an outer disciple of the Shaotian Sect. .
The world of cultivation is generally in a state of shortage of cultivation resources, but cultivation itself is a process of failure to advance or retreat. Therefore, whether it is spiritual grain, spiritual wheat, or spiritual rice, which can produce large-scale and high-yield products with a short cycle, Crops have become the most commonly used items used by most low-level monks to assist their cultivation and improve their cultivation.
After spiritual cultivators reach a certain level, they plant spiritual grains not for food and clothing, but to at least maintain their own cultivation from declining when cultivation resources are scarce. Therefore, almost all spiritual cultivators will do this. I am so persistent in having my own piece of spiritual land.
Take a stone of spiritual grain as an example, it is only worth a few jade coins. However, using a few jade coins to practice will exhaust the spiritual power contained in it in just a few days. In these few days, the monk's cultivation level is even It may be improved because of this, but what about after using jade coins? Because they cannot replenish enough spiritual power for a long time, the monk's cultivation will begin to decline, and it will even decline to the point where it is not as good as the original cultivation.
But if these jade coins are exchanged for a stone of spiritual grain, perhaps the monk's cultivation level will not be significantly improved by eating the spiritual grain, but at least within two or three months before the spiritual grain is consumed, the monk will You can always maintain your own cultivation level without deterioration!
This is why ordinary monks often value Linggu more than jade coins!
As for the old spiritual farmer in Tuyuan Village who was forced to die, after passing the peak of his prime, not only had he lost the possibility of further improvement in his cultivation, but also because his physical body had begun to decline. If you want to keep your cultivation level from declining, you may need to replenish the amount of spiritual grains more than an adult.
And brother Qian Chunlai forcibly took away the remaining spiritual grain in his hand, which would only accelerate the aging of his physical body, the decline of his cultivation level faster, and the time before death would naturally be greatly shortened, so he finally found his body. Short-sighted.
A few days after the grain tax payment was completed, Yang Tiangang's mood still did not improve. He had a gloomy face all day long, which scared the brothers Yang Junping and Yang Junxin to avoid seeing their father.
Yang Junshan found Han Xiumei and asked, "Mom, dad is still worried about the outer disciples of Shaotian Sect?"
In Yang Junshan's view, it was a good thing that Yang Tiangang did not become an outer disciple of the Shaking Sky Sect. Although the Shaking Sky Sect was powerful, it was nothing more than a giant ship about to sink in the sea. Shaking the Sky Sect has cleared the relationship, and maybe they will be able to avoid disaster in the future.
Han Xiumei sighed and said: "Some words are just for outsiders to listen to. Your father's original merit does not need to be considered by collecting food taxes. What really prevents your father from becoming an inner disciple." The reason is because of your uncle!"
"Your uncle was accepted as an inner disciple of the Shaking Sky Sect because of his contribution to reporting the red rust rough stone. Since the Yang family has an inner disciple this time, whether it is the Shaking Sky Sect itself, or he is trying to become a disciple of the Shaking Sky Sect. All the big and small forces in Yu County do not want the Yang family to occupy another outer disciple spot, and there may be objections within the Yang family!"
When Yang Junshan saw his father, Yang Tian was half lying on a wicker chair, smoking and reading. Yang Junshan walked over and took a look.
He discovered that what Yang Tiangang was reading was an atlas about low-level spiritual herbs. Not only were there extremely realistic patterns drawn on it, but there were also relatively detailed instructions on the side.
