Three years later, the sun was blazing in the sky and it was scorching hot.
Song City was filled with joy.
In the inner city, monks at the level of Jindan Yuanying can be seen everywhere entering and exiting the city, watching competitions and browsing the scenery.
There are even monks who transform gods and refining voids, but ordinary monks can't see their true identity at all.
The reason why the city is so lively is because the Qinghu Merger Ceremony of the ancestors of the Long family is about to be held.
The ceremony was held in a relatively hasty manner, leaving only three years.
If teleportation is not done, many places in the Immortal Alliance that are far away from Song City may not be reachable at all.
The Long family did not plan to make a big deal, but negotiated with the Immortal Alliance to hold the ceremony as soon as possible.
A fused monk is the top combat power of the human race, and the Immortal Alliance will naturally not ignore him.
Even if monks from established forces hold a grand ceremony, the Immortal Alliance will also participate.
This is done to demonstrate the influence and strength of the Immortal Alliance.
Elder Xueqin, who once presided over the competition between Songcheng state leaders, came to Songcheng again.
Coming to Songcheng again after a thousand years, Elder Xueqin looked at the changes around him and sighed in his heart.
She knew that not only the ancestor of the Long family was fast in cultivation, but the family was also good at governance.
When I came to Songcheng today, it was the first time I could really feel the difference.
"Little friend Long Yuan, the old woman saw that there are many novel things in the city. Can you introduce them to the old woman?"
"You're welcome, elder. I will introduce you to the things in the city."
When Xueqin came this time, she brought many family monks with her, most of them were female monks.
Looking at the novel things outside, they are naturally curious as they often practice in the mountains.
Long Yuan pointed to the facilities in the city and began to explain.
These things were first arranged in Zhanlan City. After continuous improvement, they are now also arranged in Song City.
Clean and tidy streets, lampposts made of jade, well-proportioned houses, billboards with flashing text, etc.
Long Yuan introduced it very naturally, explaining the functions and design ideas together.
According to Long Dahai, these things can be told to others and even sold. The Long family still needs to be the family that sets standards.
In the past, Long Yuan did not understand what setting standards meant.
But as the Long family's wealth grew, he understood his father's words.
Nowadays, many counties in Songzhou are using the standard products set by the Long family, which brings huge amounts of wealth to the Long family every year.
As time goes by, the Long family's set of things has been passed on to several other states, and the market it has set off continues to expand, and the wealth will be further improved.
The Long family does not have a monopoly on astronomical wealth.
At the same time, it changed the lifestyle of the people under its rule, and also formulated a series of measures to prevent the people in the prefectures and counties from becoming freeloaders.
The more you work, the more you gain, the more you give birth to, the more you gain, the same for men and women, etc. Various ideas, with the governance of the Long family, are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The people of Songzhou have gotten rid of the plight of not having enough to eat and clothing, and can even live a prosperous life as long as they are willing to pay.
The fields that are harvested three times a year are enough for Songcheng to feed hundreds of millions of people.
The Long family has mastered the propaganda machine, and can directly let ordinary people know the content and ideas of its own policies.
There are monks such as the Questioning Heart Stone who are inspecting magical artifacts and implementing the Long family's policies. They dare not cheat easily during the execution of their tasks.
For the monks who uphold the Long family's policies, the Long family has always adhered to the idea of high salary and integrity, and provided a lot of subsidies, so that these monks can sincerely serve the Long family.
Under the rule of the Long family, among the lower-level village chiefs, township lords, county chiefs, etc., there are very few monks who dare to prey on the common people and treat ordinary people as slaves.
For this reason, the Long family once eliminated tens of thousands of village officials in one fell swoop.
The villagers are not required to do many facts, but they can implement the policies of the Long family. This is the principle of the Long family in recruiting village leaders, village heads, county heads, etc.
A Muramasa sage who practices normally and grows spiritual objects arranged by the Long family can earn more than a hundred spiritual stones a year.
This level is also an extremely high income among Qi practicing monks in the Central Plains region.
In addition to the monk's own chance income, after fifteen years of accumulation, he can redeem the foundation-building pill and try to break through the realm.
Therefore, after the Long family dealt with tens of thousands of village masters and other monks, they quickly replenished their manpower.
The entire Songzhou has been undergoing major changes quietly for thousands of years.
These changes are implemented by the Long family in the areas directly under their own control.
Later, because Longdahai suddenly closed down, it did not continue to expand.
Consolidating the achievements also stabilizes the hearts of the monks in the city.
Naturally, many casual cultivators had opinions on the Long Family's policies. In addition to the mindless monks who wanted to take revenge privately and planned to use violence to intimidate the Long Family, many monks reported the Long Family's matters to the Immortal Alliance.
However, the Immortal Alliance cannot interfere in what the Long family does.
This is because these things are all carried out in places directly under the Long family.
Becoming the lord of a state cannot only govern Songcheng and a state city.
Within Songzhou, one-fifth of the prefectures, counties, and townships are directly under the control of the Long family.
Regardless of the arrangements made by the previous state leaders, the Long family has the right to carry out its own reforms in these places.
If you can't meet the requirements of the Long family, the Long family will naturally not be polite.
Although the Immortal Alliance has opened up many new states and counties, most monks in the Central Plains do not want to go to those remote places.
There are many conveniences in staying in a place you are familiar with.
In terms of elixirs, magical weapons, inheritance, etc., the advantages possessed by the Central Plains are not comparable to those of newly opened places.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be many monks who would come to Zhongyuan County to look for opportunities to break through when there is no hope of a breakthrough.
Although these families or casual cultivators at the county level are not high in cultivation, they are still very relevant when they are involved.
But the Long family, a newly emerging family, will naturally not give in and handle their own affairs without the need for outside instructions.
When it was rumored that something happened to Long Dahai, there were many voices and methods of resistance.
After learning that Long Dahai had broken through to the realm of integration, these voices were immediately suppressed.
Many monks understood the situation and decisively embraced the Long family's policies.
With hundreds of years of development, many monks who have accepted the Long family's policies have benefited.
At the same time, the territory of Songzhou has become much more stable.
Many monks yearn for a stable cultivation environment. Songzhou can provide them with the safest and most stable life, which will naturally attract many monks to come.
When the report of the merger ceremony was about to begin, the monks in Songzhou, especially the local monks directly under the Long family, were spontaneously happy.
They knew that the Long family had a fusion cultivator, and the Long family's policy would become permanent.
As low-level monks, they will also benefit from it. In the future, special foundation building or golden elixir monks are very promising.
After all, in the spiritual world, as long as the wealth is in place, it can be expected to break through to the Yuanying monk.
Although this ceremony was short, it aroused the celebration of all the monks under the rule of the Long family!
