Chapter 318 New Expansion - A Good Opportunity for Development
Li Yan is naturally also paying attention to the group of players from the Dongfang Expedition who entered Fengxiang Mansion.
But now his focus is still on the gains from the Battle of Hexi.
Two thousand luck points is naturally a big income, which means more players can be recruited next month!
Although 4,400 players seems to be a lot, as the territory expands, it seems that many players are stretched thin.
Players are needed to fight wars, players are needed to govern places, players are needed to develop technology, and players are needed to do business.
Li Yan wished that the number of players would increase tenfold, but it was a pity that he had to eat food one bite at a time and save his luck points bit by bit.
Occupying Hexi will also bring Li Yan a fixed income of luck points, which can also be converted into players.
The capture of the Battle of Hexi also brought some blood back to Hexi, which had been ravaged by war.
Although the grain and fodder were burned, the captured livestock and horses were hard currency in these days.
These livestock and horses are the property of Tubo East Road, and now they have fallen into the hands of Li Yan!
The captured Tubo prisoners of war were also extremely important productivity.
The saltpeter mines in Zhangye and the iron mines in Dashuixia require a lot of labor.
Even in modern times, the mining industry is still a high-level industry, and the cost of employing indigenous people is huge. The mining progress of Zhangye Saltpeter Mine has not been fast.
With these Tubo slaves, there would be manpower to mine the mines, and they could also solve the labor shortage problem in Longyou.
More importantly, as the threats from Tibet and Uighurs are lifted, Longyou will inevitably usher in a period of stable development.
This was also the last period of development for Longyou before getting involved in the Central Plains War.
"System, I want to release a new expansion pack."
"As you wish."
Just when the general players in Hexi were still immersed in the ecstasy of getting rich overnight, a server-wide announcement suddenly appeared, triggering a carnival among other players.
[The new expansion pack - "Opportunity for Development" has been installed, and this update has been installed. 】
["Opportunity for Development", the Hexi War brought a good opportunity for development to Longyou. King Jianning called on players not to miss the opportunity and to vigorously develop Longyou! 】

[A new player organization, a company, has been opened. Players can open a company by depositing a certain amount of deposit to Wangfu Bank. 】

and exclusive rewards!】
[Beiting Player Hall and Gaochang Player Hall have been built. New players can choose this as their birth point, and old players can choose to resurrect here.]
[Jiuquan Player Hall, Zhangye Player Hall, and Wuwei Player Hall are already under construction, so stay tuned.]
[The price of contribution points exchanged for war horses has been reduced, and the price of exchanged controlled weapons has been reduced. Please check the specific prices in each player's redemption hall. 】
[New skill reward system, entry-proficiency-mastery-superior. Skills that reach proficiency and superior levels will receive skill rewards. Players are asked to develop balanced development and pay attention to improving skill levels!]
[A new professional level reward system is added. Players can obtain level rewards when their professional level reaches level 10, 15, and 20. Players are asked to continue working hard to improve their professional level. 】
With the luck points, Li Yan was naturally rich and powerful. He opened three new player halls and used the luck points to create several new systems.
The launch of the new system naturally attracted discussion among players, and almost all players opened the control panel excitedly.
Cui Tao also opened his own system, and he opened the system prompt.
"Presided over the logistics of Zhangye Battle, professional experience 200."
"Clean up the Hexi battlefield and rebuild Zhangye city defense. 100 professional experience."
"Your [official] level has been raised to level 15, and you will receive 15 contribution points from your main career level every month!"
"You have two unclaimed career treasure chests. Do you need to claim them?"
The dog planner has finally started working! For first-test players like Cui Tao, it is very painful to open up the Tang Dynasty.
When first-test players like them entered the game, this crappy game didn’t even have a game panel!
It is also by relying on these old players to continuously post on the forum that "Dog Planning" has perfected the system.
He quickly opened the career panel, and sure enough, he had accumulated two career level rewards.
A bronze treasure chest representing a level 10 career and a silver treasure chest representing a level 15 reward.
Cui Tao said to the system: "Open the treasure box."
The first thing to open was the level 10 treasure chest. As expected, the level 10 treasure chest contained nothing good. It only rewarded Cui Tao with an antique bronze statue from the Northern Wei Dynasty.
[Bronze Statue of the Northern Wei Dynasty: The kings and people of the Northern Wei Dynasty liked to cast statues for divination. This is an unearthed bronze statue of the Northern Wei Dynasty. It is a decoration that can improve the style of the room.]
These rewards have to be collected at Prince Jianning’s residence. Cui Tao murmured:
"The system is really stingy. The Northern Wei Dynasty is so close to us now. What kind of antique is it? It's not worth the round trip expenses to get a bronze statue."
"But fortunately, this thing can be collected on your behalf. Let's talk to Teacher Fang tomorrow and ask him to collect it when he passes by Shazhou."
Then Cui Tao opened the silver treasure chest with level 15 rewards.
This time, Cui Tao's eyes lit up. The future for the level 15 official career turned out to be a resurrection book.
The resurrection book is a good thing. Although Cui Tao has already redeemed it, it is always good to have an extra guarantee of survival.
Why is he, a civil servant who is not on the front line, giving out resurrection letters as a reward?
Could it be that King Jianning was afraid that they would be assassinated?
But at least it gives players more motivation to upgrade their professional level.
While the players were checking various rewards, the four people from the eastbound group finally delivered the 10,000 miscellaneous animals donated to the imperial court to Fengxiang Mansion with the help of the officials along the way.
Li Daoyuan has received a lot of attention along the way, especially after he happened to rescue the Uighur marriage envoys in Guyuan City. Li Daoyuan felt that there were always eyes staring at them along the way.
As the team entered the vicinity of Fengxiang Mansion, Li Daoyuan felt that there were more surveillance eyes.
However, Li Daoyuan didn't care and just urged the team to move forward. His mission was to send these livestock to Fengxiang Mansion.
The only thing that made Li Daoyuan unhappy was that the old Uighur man refused to leave.
I'm not a fool. Anyone who knows a little bit about the situation in the Uighurs will naturally know who wants to assassinate him.
What's more, the assassins who assassinated An Daxie's hairdresser were all Uighurs. This is almost obvious.
Prince Yehu did not want the Uighur proposal delegation to arrive at Fengxiang Mansion, so I reached an agreement to understand.
But in order to complete the task, An Daxiefa had no choice but to stay by Li Daoyuan's side.
He understood that Prince Ye Hu dared to assassinate him once in the Tang Dynasty, but he did not dare to assassinate him again in front of King Jianning's envoy.
Ida Xie's plan for getting a haircut was good, but when he saw the city wall of Fengxiang Mansion, this Uighur veteran who was proficient in Han culture became even more nervous.
It's more dangerous when we arrive at Fengxiang Mansion.
Before the Battle of Qingqu, the emperor was so confident in regaining the two capitals that he even refused Prince Ye Hu's "help" and allowed the Uighur cavalry to be stationed in Fengxiang Mansion for "repairs."
The emperor of the Tang Dynasty was still very stingy. Prince Ye Hu's army was a "mercenary army", and there was a price to pay for letting mercenaries go to the battlefield.
The Tang Dynasty couldn't even collect enough money to reward its own soldiers. If these Uighur soldiers won the battle and couldn't get the rewards, there would be trouble.
For the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, you can still "suffer a soldier", but for these barbaric Uighur barbarians, you have to marry them now. If you default on your debts, it will really cause trouble.
Therefore, the Tang court did not let the Uighur mercenaries fight in the Battle of Qingqu.
But now and then, the situation changed, and the Tang court had to rely on this Uighur mercenary army again.
In the barracks specially built by the Tang court for the Uighur cavalry, a magnificent tent was the residence of Prince Ye Hu.
In order to take care of the living habits of this prairie prince, the Weaving Bureau of the Inner Court of the Tang Dynasty specially made this huge tent using various silks and furs.
It is said to be a tent, but in fact the ground is covered with thick waterproof fur, making the tent very comfortable.
It's just that the owner of the tent was not in a good mood. Prince Ye Hu heard the news that An Daxie's hairdresser had arrived at Fengxiang Mansion, and he was so angry that he beat several servants again, which finally calmed down his irritable mood.
The one who was in the same bad mood as Prince Ye Hu was Prince Guangping Li Chu who was imprisoned in the Prince's Mansion because of certain "crimes" that could not be mentioned in the court.
Although the Battle of Qingqu did not bring any punishment to Li Chu, several personnel arrangements made by the emperor still affected the status of the prince.
First of all, the imperial court reassigned the left and right guards of the East Palace to lead the palace. This is an important position to control the security of the East Palace and the East Palace's army. This low-key replacement did not hide the smart people in the court. Rumors about the prince's fall from favor quickly spread.
Fengxiang Mansion spread.
However, since the Battle of Qingqu, the East Palace has indeed disappeared from the high-level political circles of the Tang Dynasty for a long time. It is no wonder that the court officials have such speculations.
What's even more subtle is that King Jianning donated livestock to Fengxiang Mansion this time, which just saved the court's emergency.
The emperor issued several decrees to commend King Jianning, which made the important officials in the court smell something unusual.
Li Daoyuan's eastbound group entered Fengxiang Mansion at this time.
