Chapter seven hundred and three: the meeting ceremony that came one after another
In addition to leaving behind jade slips, the county guard who was once a chamberlain also left behind three quaint keys, namely the long-coveted treasure management room belonging to Qiwu County, the location of the core array of the county formation, and the last one.
It's the key to the back door of the Sheriff's Mansion.
The front door is too conspicuous to come and go, and most of the entrances and exits are usually through the back door. Here is a small teleportation array, and the destination opposite is a group of private houses in the west of the city.
In addition, as the county magistrate who has full authority to handle the political and military affairs of Qiwu County, he is also qualified to have a room in the county governor's mansion, which is located in the northwest corner of the county governor's mansion.
The Sheriff's Mansion may seem simple and mediocre, but it is actually built on a solid fourth-level mid-grade spiritual vein. However, because most of the spiritual power is used in the maintenance of the city defense formation, it is inconspicuous and watertight.
That's all.
As long as the remaining spiritual power has not encountered a war and met the cultivation needs of the two monks, there will not be many problems, and it will have an obvious auxiliary effect on the improvement of cultivation.
Zhao Shoushou's only purpose in choosing to apply was to improve his cultivation. Since there is a sufficient supply of spiritual power here, he will naturally not abandon the near and seek the distant.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it really is a different kind of cave. It looks like just a small dark room from the outside, but inside it is a fully equipped cave. Such rich spiritual power is even higher than imagined." Entering the northwest corner
In the room, Zhao Shoushou couldn't help but sigh.
After being trained with sufficient spiritual power, the two cormorants "Quagua Gua" have smoother hair all over their bodies. Judging from their reactions, they are obviously very satisfied with the environment here.
The two little guys may have been staying in the spirit beast bag for a long time, and their cultivation strength has not increased significantly over the years. It is obviously very satisfying to be free again at this time.
"If the opportunity is right, it seems that I have to wait for an opportunity to find a spiritual beast tower of good quality." As the cultivation level increases, the requirements for various treasures are naturally increasing.
The Spirit Beast Tower is also a treasure specially used to cultivate spirit beasts, and there are miniature formations carved on it, which can continuously absorb spiritual power from the outside world and store it in a special space. Once the spirit beast enters it, it will not
There will be adverse effects, but you can still continue to practice there.
This special treasure can be regarded as a relatively rare magic weapon. Except for some monks who are good at controlling beasts, no one will refine it, because it requires the consumption of some special and rare spiritual materials, and the number of them in the world of cultivation is not very high.
That's too much.
Spiritual beast towers generally have four to six floors. Each floor is a separate space, which can be used to raise a kind of spiritual beast, and can also be used to shut down some monsters with special functions. It is also called a monster suppression tower.
Unpopular and relatively rare treasures need to be found bit by bit in the future by looking for special opportunities, and they will be stationed in Qiwu County for a long time in the foreseeable future. There is no urgent need for the Spirit Beast Tower.
.
Qiwu County is located in the hinterland of the Zhou and Song Dynasties. It has a vast territory, abundant resources, and a comfortable environment. It has six counties in total, each occupied by three sects and three families. Within the county, four sects occupy the southeastern part.
In the northwest and four directions, the county governor's mansion is located in the center.
These sect families are responsible for the management of the county and only need to hand over a certain amount of treasures in proportion every year. However, all military power is in the hands of the local government.
Guquan
In the following months, he has been in a very busy state. As the new county magistrate, his first priority is to take control of the five hundred patrol monks stationed in the military camp in the county city.
Before Zhao Shoushou officially took office, he was fully responsible for the county lieutenant who was also on the seventh level of Jindan. The transfer of power between the two parties was still quite primitive, that is, a fierce battle on the military camp and school grounds. In the end, Zhao Shoushou relied on his rich combat experience and solid foundation.
The foundation is even better.
The rest of the work was quite simple. Under his strong suppression, the county captain disappeared in despair, and the military camp soon changed hands.
Two months later, a brand new order was successfully established under his leadership, and the management order of the entire county was rapidly improved.
Zhao Shoushou once personally captured two early Jindan monks who tried to challenge the majesty of the patrol team, and decisively sealed them and forced them into the mines for labor reform.
It was precisely because of his strong style that the originally chaotic scene in Junchengfang City disappeared completely, and some thieves who specialized in robbing monks also disappeared without a trace.
In addition to the above-mentioned achievements, the most important ones are the mutual contacts and visits with various large and small sects and families.
After the county governor, who was once a chamberlain, completely stopped managing political affairs, the heads of various families came to visit him one after another. During the time they were welcomed and sent off, they only received a few gifts and already earned a lot of money.
These clans and sects are all local overlords who were born and raised in the local area. They have a large amount of resources in their hands, including mineral veins of various grades, spiritual fruit groves that have been cultivated through hard work, spiritual medicine gardens full of various spiritual herbs, etc.
Either way requires the consumption of a large amount of spiritual power and the payment of a certain amount of tax to the royal family. The fluctuations in the amount are all within the authority of the local monks in power. As long as they can be on good terms with each other, they will pay taxes every year.
This can save you a lot of money.
"Third-grade high-grade spiritual materials, third-grade mid-grade spiritual fruits, third-order top-grade elixirs, third-grade top-grade elixirs, and some valuable small items can meet the needs of the next three years of cultivation."
After cleaning up the miscellaneous meeting gifts in his storage bag, Zhao Shoushou couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and at the same time, he was once again grateful that he chose to join the recruitment and become one of them.
Among all the greeting gifts, the most precious one was a thumb-sized pearl with mysterious patterns, which came from a local Peng family in the county that specialized in raising clams.
The patriarch of the family is a ninth-level golden elixir monk and the strongest member of the family. He once came to visit and offered this pearl.
Pearls come from a kind of clam called Xuanluo Lingmu. They have the effect of gathering spiritual power and clearing the mind and calming the energy. Wearing it for a long time can increase the speed of a monk's practice. It may not be obvious on weekdays, but it can be clearly felt at critical moments. It is considered
An effect that accumulates over time.
The Xuanluo Spirit Clam is a rare mutated spirit clam. On average, only one appears in ten thousand, and it needs to be raised in a place with abundant spiritual power. Under Chongbao's bribe, he is naturally inevitable.
, promised to allocate a spiritual power equivalent to a third-level mid-grade spiritual vein to supply the Peng family's Lingbang Lake on the north side of the city.
According to the agreement reached between the two parties, he will be given a normal third-level high-grade pearl every year, and an additional third-order high-grade mutant pearl every ten years. In short, it can be said to be a steady stream of stable financial resources, regardless of mutation.
Pearls or normal pearls are worth a lot of money in the market, and they are widely used and have no worries about sales.
