One Step to The End: 1272 Ancient Soul Tower

Luoyang City Chickens and Flying Dogs danced all night. Almost the whole city was hunting for monsters. In the end, five of them were hacked to death, but the ones who died were all little monsters. The big monsters such as the white snake did not show up at all. The four-faced demon and other things are still dormant in the city.

"His grandma's! After tossing all night and not sleeping, he has to go to the court..."

The civil and military officials came to the outside of the imperial city one after another. A night rain made the weather cool. The weak people put on leather waistcoats, and the normal people put on jackets. I brought breakfast to eat at home, and if I didn't bring it, I bought it nearby and ate it now.

"Good morning, my lords, let's eat two bites if you haven't eaten, oily and spicy..."

Zhao Guanren, who was dressed in court clothes, rode a horse, followed by not only a carriage, but also servants pushing two steaming dining carts. The servants quickly unloaded the folding tables and chairs from the carriage, directly outside the palace gate Set up stalls on the square.

"Ouch~ just in time, bring me a bowl of noodles..."

The king of Yujiang trotted and sat there, only to hear the sound of "chuck" from the dining car, and a strong smell of chili oil permeated everywhere. Many officials sneezed several times, but they were surprised: "This is What kind of spice, why is it so choking?"

"Chaotian pepper! Much better than dogwood..."

Zhao Guanren sat down and took out cigarettes to distribute. Datang people love to eat chili and sashimi, and even if they catch a loach, they will cut them into slices for you. Vegetables are hardly green.

"Hey? Mr. Yin, where did you get eggplants in such a cold weather? Why do you still have cucumbers and lentils..."

Prince Qin picked up a cucumber and took a bite. Only then did everyone discover that there was a cart of fresh vegetables, while Zhao Guanren smiled and said with a cigarette in his mouth, "Of course it's grown by our town magician. If you like it, take more. This is the first fresh vegetable!"

"Hey~ This spicy guy is really **** fun, cool! It's cool..."

A military general raised his head and shouted, his face was flushed from the spicy food, and all the civil and military officials gathered after hearing the words. In the cold weather, eating chili would have warded off the cold, and then a bite of crunchy cucumber, And the grilled eggplant with garlic, it almost turned a group of people over.

"Brothers of the Shenwu Army, all come over to eat a couple of bites and warm up..."

Zhao Guanren stood up angrily and said hello. The guards guarding the gate had long been drooling. Hearing this, he ran over immediately, lined up beside the dining car and waited, and Zhao Guanren sacrificed his death. utensils, Tremella bird's nest soup in a glass bowl.

"Huh? This carved glazed bowl is so transparent, it's worth a lot..."

“Boom~”

Before a minister's words were spoken, King Yujiang was scorched and smashed a bowl. Everyone immediately felt distressed and regretted. Liuli was a by-product of copper refining. No matter which dynasty it was, it was considered a luxury. Not to mention the rare frosted glass bowl.

"Uh~ I'm sorry! This king slipped, how much money, this king will pay you..."

King Yujiang rubbed his hands embarrassedly, but how could he know that Zhao Guanren held out another set, all of which were low-quality goods at nine yuan and nine free shipping, put them on the table and smiled: "A set of six bowls and six dishes, you give it to me. A cost price, twenty taels of silver will do, and the rest is yours!"

"No! This king is sincere in making compensation, you say the real price..."

Wang Yujiang and others didn't believe it was so cheap at all. Who knew that Zhao Guanren held out two more sets and a few colorful glasses, and said, "Currently the output is small, and the price is indeed a bit high, so I can make five sets a day. Hundred sets, the cost will be cut in half again!"

"Five hundred sets a day? Only twelve taels..."

Everyone opened their mouths in horror and picked up the glass products to look and beat. Although the workmanship is not close to the exquisite, the key is that the materials are rare and cheap, but the actual cost is not even a tael of silver.

“Haha~”

The King of Yujiang suddenly reacted, got up and scolded with a smile: "Well, Sir Yin, no wonder you dare to promise to turn losses into profits. It turned out that such a huge golden mountain was quietly hidden. These glazed bowls are represented by this king, no one Don't fight with this king!"

"It doesn't matter if I say this, whoever the emperor says is who is who, everyone

Let's eat quickly..."

Zhao Guanren smiled and sat down to eat the soup, everyone took the glass bowls to serve it, but when it was time to open the palace gate, no one came in, everyone gathered around the dining car and feasted, even the eunuchs and inner guards in the palace All ran out to see fresh.

"Mr. Wei!"

Zhao Guanren suddenly found out that Chen Guangda had come out, he picked up a set of the most shrewd glass products, handed it over and said politely: "Please, Mr. Wei, present it to the emperor, this is a new product made by the government, a set of twenty-two , if you allow us, we will start work!"

"Master Yin! You can't talk nonsense, our family is not the chief eunuch..."

Chen Guangda took the tone of the result and said something, Zhao Guanren deliberately wondered: "Isn't it? Then why did I hear that Eunuch An wants... Forget it! There are talented people in Jiangshan, waiting for Eunuch An to take care of his life, You must take his class!"

"Ha~ Don't listen to the rumors, Mr. An is very healthy..."

Chen Guangda waved his hand arrogantly, and asked the guards to carry away two baskets of vegetables. He bowed his hands to the officials before leaving, but the officials started to talk about it. It was the same, I was stunned before queuing up to enter the palace.

"Your Majesty has a decree! Xuanbai officials have an audience..."

Chen Guangda stood in front of the main hall and shouted, and the civil and military officials were all stunned. Some people hurriedly chased after the **** and asked, "Why did Eunuch Wei announce the decree today, why don't you see Director An?"

"I'm sick!"

A young **** deliberately said loudly: "Wasn't the four-faced demons rioting last night, Director An was wearing a single shirt and went up to the tower to watch. He was frightened and drenched in heavy rain. In the middle of the night, he couldn't get sick. I don't know if Tang's life is going to continue... alas~"

"So that's the case! Mr. Yin is still well-informed, and Mr. Wei is young and strong..."

The princes and ministers finally came to their senses and took turns to go up the steps to greet Chen Guangda, but this was really not Chen Guangda's poisonous hand. The **** An Da was always cautious and could not find an opportunity to poison him. As a result, it rained heavily. Got drenched.

"Long live my emperor, long live..."

A hundred civil and military officials entered the hall and knelt collectively. Zhao Guanren is now a fourth-rank official, kneeling in the position behind the civil servant, but he has long practiced a set of slick skills, with his hands on the ground and his knees Not touching the ground at all in the robe.

"Being flat! If there is something to play, if there is nothing to retreat..."

Chen Guangda stood under the high platform with a high-pitched voice, but no one could see that he was a fake eunuch, and the old emperor probably didn't sleep for a long time, and actually sat on the dragon chair and yawned. Fortunately, officials reported that the demon beheading It is no longer a boring political affair.

"Father! The national teacher was almost killed last night, which shows the ignorance of my court teacher..."

The king of Yujiang stepped forward and said: "Last night, Yin Shilang was fortunate to turn the tide, and only then did a monstrous disaster averted. It is indeed a shame to let him be in charge of the bureaucracy. He is in charge, and the government is second!"

"The monsters have blatantly murdered my court teacher, I really want to give them some color..."

The old emperor patted the dragon chair and said: "From now on, Qianniuwei will be merged into the Demon Suppression Division to serve as the demon slayer, and then the elite mage will be selected by the major temples to serve as the demon suppressor. The two complement each other. What do all the Aiqing think about jointly protecting me in Tang Dynasty?"

'Huh? ’

Zhao Guanren was stunned for a moment, and quickly calculated the pros and cons, but someone immediately said: "Your Majesty! The Suppressing Magic Division should not only protect the safety of my gods, but should go deep into other prefectures, otherwise the prefectures will not be able to protect themselves, and they will definitely Become a breeding ground for evil spirits!"

"Hmm! That's very true..."

The old emperor nodded and said: "Yin Shilang! You are able to work hard, and you can't slack off in the administration of officials. You are also fully responsible for the Ministry of Suppression and Magic. I will send you a few smart people as assistants. Work together to formulate a charter, and submit the number of personnel required by each state, as well as the overall plan!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhao Guanren went out to salute without being arrogant or arrogant, but the old emperor came again: "I have already seen the jade pass five-color glazed bowl you just presented

, but such a treasure is so cheap, I don't think it's inappropriate. All the Aiqings have also tasted it, right? "

"Your Majesty! It's really cheap..."

A prince jumped out immediately and said loudly: "Liu Li is my unique skill in the Tang Dynasty, and many countries and small countries coveted it. Although low capital is a good thing, selling it at a low price is a waste of treasure. Erchen thinks, then A set is at least five thousand taels!"

"cough cough..."

As soon as the old emperor took a sip of tea, he almost spit it out. Chen Guangda hurriedly went up to put a handkerchief on him. The old emperor wiped his mouth and raised his head, giving him an angry look.

"Imperial Father! It's too expensive for ordinary people to buy. If you can't sell it, you have to pay for it. The loss is the court..."

The King of Yujiang said loudly: "Selling at a low price is also a waste of treasure. It is better to openly attract business from the private sector. Merchants seek profits. They will give the most reasonable price, and they will pay to expand the scale, dump overseas, and earn gold and silver. To strengthen the prestige of my Tang Dynasty, I don't have to pay a penny from the court!"

"Huh?"

The old emperor was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he praised: "Not bad! It's wonderful! It seems that my son has been diligently studying and practicing hard recently, and he has made great progress. You also share the worries for Yin Shilang, and it is up to you to attract investment. Come and be in charge, and recruit everything that the officials make!"

"My son will lead the way!"

King Yujiang bowed excitedly, and several other princes looked at Zhao Guanren one after another. He must have come up with this idea, otherwise King Yujiang would not even know what "dumping" means.

"King Ning! King Yan! Step forward to listen to the decree..."

The old emperor followed up and said: "Tubo ganged up with rebels and messed with my Tianzhu Road. The rebellion has already appeared. I ordered you two to lead the way of troops and horses to go to Nanzhao and Jiannan to supervise the army respectively to assist Longyou Road. If you attack the Tubo, if the Nanzhao Jiedushi has any changes, you two can kill first and then play!"

"My son takes orders!"

The two princes stepped forward and knelt down excitedly. This was a big credit for Bai Jian, and it also had the advantage of taking the opportunity to win over local generals.

"Yin Shilang! Zhang Duwei! You two come forward together..."

The old emperor suddenly waved his hand, Zhao Guanren and Xia Buer looked at each other, and went out to stand with some doubts.

"The two of you were originally from the same school, but now you are both working for the court, so small conflicts should be put aside..."

The old emperor said with a smile: "I want to announce two big happy events, one is that I want to betrothed Princess Changle to Zhang Wuji, from now on he will be my court's concubine Zhang, and I will give the concubine a house, with Princess Changle lives together in Luoyang City!"

"Thank you for your grace, my son-in-law is grateful..."

"Don't be in a hurry to be happy, you are not as sophisticated as your senior brother, I have to sharpen you..."

The old emperor said loudly: "Zhang Concubine! I ordered you to lead 3,000 iron cavalry to the Anxi Duhufu to read my will, and assist Zhao Jiedu to go to Tubo to quell the rebellion, and the expedition will be on the same day! Waiting for your triumphant return, I and the princess will take care of you personally!"

"The minister obeys the decree! Wuji is determined to live up to the grace..."

Xia Buer pretended to be excited and knelt down on one knee. The old emperor nodded and looked at Zhao Guanren. Zhao Guanren knew that he was about to serve a big dish. No matter how capable he was, how diligent and loyal he was, the old emperor and his back The Luo Zhimen will not make him feel better.

"Yin Shilang! Last night, you turned the tide, killed the four-faced demon, and the people in the city raved about it..."

The old emperor smiled and said: "I want to reward you well, and immediately promote you to be the magician of the town of magic, the third grade, give you the surname Li, seal the prince of the town, and three thousand households in the food town!"

Zhao Guanren secretly said in shock: 'My dear! The surname has been changed for Lao Tzu, it seems to be a big move! ’

"The Shangqing Temple has been changed to your dojo, given the name Zhenmo Temple, which can receive the incense of believers all over the world, and you will be given an ancient soul tower..."

"Ancient Soul Rescue Tower? Where is..."

Zhao Guanren raised his head abruptly, Chen Guangda and Xia Buer were also instinctively surprised, but they didn't show any abnormality under the pressure One person suddenly looked up and then dropped down quickly...
