After hearing Wu Zhao's explanation, Ning Chen immediately said: "Your Majesty is actually really worried that the Seventh Prince is coveting the throne. I can also help deal with this matter."
Wu Zhao sneered and said, "The relationship between you and my seventh brother is really pure."
Ning Chen nodded: "Purely a money relationship."
"What about you and me?" Wu Zhao asked along.
This kind of question is really not easy to answer.
Fortunately, Ning Chen thought quickly: "Whatever your Majesty wishes, I will listen to your Majesty."
In response to Ning Chen's opportunistic answer, Wu Zhao snorted coldly and did not continue to delve deeper.
After all, she is the emperor now, and she is responsible for the rise and fall of the entire dynasty and the human race.
"The main reason why I asked you to help my seventh brother open a business path is to fight against the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom and the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions.
Do you know what the real purpose of the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom and the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions is here?"
Although I haven't learned about this Ning Chen in detail, it's just that.
On the one hand, let's see if Emperor Shun is really dead, and whether Emperor Shun is paralyzing them by pretending to be dead to help the Wu Dynasty gather their luck.
After all, not everyone can perceive things about luck.
Even among the royal family, not everyone can sense it.
Only those who are deeply connected with luck can sense the changes in luck.
It's not that you can't fight with eight poles, but you can feel the changes in luck just by having a person with the surname Wu.
Even if there are people who can sense the changes in luck, they will betray this information.
The Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom and the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions are not completely believed. You have to see them with your own eyes.
On the other hand, it is natural to stir up troubles, cause some trouble for Wu Zhao, and create various rumors.
The more chaotic the Wu Dynasty is, the greater the benefits will be to them.
After listening to Ning Chen's words, Wu Zhao added: "These two points are indeed their purposes, but there is another purpose that is equally important. That is tariffs and trade."
Tariffs and trade?
Ning Chen had never thought about this matter.
The key is that Ning Chen doesn't understand what's going on here either.
Seeing that Ning Chen didn't understand, Wu Zhao patiently explained some of the techniques to Ning Chen.
After listening to Wu Zhao's story, Ning Chen also understood how important tariffs and trade were.
The Wu Dynasty had trade relations with the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom and the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions, and Ning Chen knew about this.
Although the Wu Dynasty had a vast territory, not everything could grow within the Wu Dynasty.
Many things, especially some medicinal materials, were not available in the Thirteen States of the Wu Dynasty. They were grown in the Buddhist Kingdom and the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom in the Western Regions, or even among the barbarians.
And these medicinal materials are essential items, whether they are martial artists or other cultivation systems, they must be needed.
For the medicinal herbs that grow on the barbarian side, the main method adopted by the human race is to plunder them.
Barbarians and humans are completely incompatible.
The barbarians have always taken the annihilation of the human race as their own duty, and the destruction of the human race's holy way as their main goal and policy.
Relatively speaking, the relationship between the Monster Clan and the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom is not so tense. First of all, let’s not talk about anything else, just the Holy Gate that everyone has seen, the most Holy Gate.
Therefore, the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom and the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions mainly focus on trade, supplemented by plunder.
After all, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a demon clan or a Buddhist country in the Western Regions.
They are not good at production, so they also need the food, silk and other basic items grown by the Wu Dynasty.
If both parties have needs, then this trade can naturally be achieved.
Such trade will naturally have pricing issues.
It's not just bartering.
It's just that this pricing power was exported by Emperor Shun back then.
As for whether it was intentional or unintentional, there is no point in discussing this now.
The pricing power is in the hands of the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom and the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions. Naturally, there is no fairness to the human race.
If the traded goods are converted into silver, it is basically equivalent to the Wu Dynasty using two taels of silver and only getting back one tael of silver from the other side.
At the same time, the management rights of the two important trading towns are not in the hands of the human race.
Therefore, when the human race makes transactions, another layer of management fees will be allocated.
If the entire loss is calculated, it is almost equivalent to the human race using two and a half taels of silver to exchange for one tael of silver.
Naturally, the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom and the Western Buddhist Kingdom are unwilling to give up on such a business that is sure to make a profit.
So the third purpose of their mission this time was to continue to let Wu Zhao continue the terms established during the Shun Emperor period.
But if Ning Chen can help Wu Ang open up business, no one will need to worry about this issue of pricing power.
Just leave it to the Holy Way to decide.
Be it the Wu Dynasty, the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, or the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions.
Everyone recognizes the holy way.
Therefore, if the holy way is truly created, there will be no issue of competing for pricing power.
Wu Zhao's explanation made Ning Chen suddenly enlightened.
These two products are also unprofitable and cannot be bought early.
Without such huge interests, both parties would not be so active.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I'm very familiar with things like opening up the Holy Path." Ning Chen assured him, patting his chest.
Wu Zhao nodded and continued: "One more thing. Remember I told you that I hope you will open a new movie to monitor the world?"
Of course Ning Chen remembers this. After all, these 100 points are very safe to obtain.
Ning Chen will definitely remember such a good thing.
Ning Chen nodded: "Of course I remember this, and I also thought of a nice name."
"What's the name?" Wu Zhao asked curiously.
"How about the watchman?" Ning Chen said the name with a look of anticipation.
"Watcher?" Wu Zhao frowned and repeated, "What a weird name."
Ning Chen explained: "The watchman is the night watchman. Your Majesty, don't you just hope that I can guard the night of Wu Dynasty for your Majesty and keep it safe?"
"Even so, I still think this name is not good." Wu Zhao still insisted on his opinion.
Since the boss doesn't accept it, Ning Chen has nothing to do.
"Then what name does Your Majesty think is good? I will explain first, the last name does not contain the word "factory". I have asked someone to approve my life before, and I am not compatible with a department like "factory"." Ning Chen told Wu Zhao in advance.
said.
Although there was no department called a factory in the court institutions of the Wu Dynasty.
But who knows if Wu Zhao will have a sudden idea and build something like a factory in the east or a factory in the west.
When you hear these two words, you will feel a chill in your crotch. If you work in it, even if you don't get stabbed, it will have a psychological impact.
Wu Zhao frowned and said, "You are talking about nonsense."
Seeing that Wu Zhao didn't plan to call the factory, Ning Chen felt more relieved: "Your Majesty, what do you plan to call the factory?"
Wu Zhao asked Ning Chen: "Are you going to change the name of your Baijia College? If you insist on changing some messy name, I won't stop you."
After hearing Wu Zhao's words, Ning Chen was stunned and said: "Your Majesty wants to establish a new department. What does it have to do with my Baijia College?"
Wu Zhao said: "The foundation of the department I established is your Hundred Schools.
I plan to let hundreds of colleges monitor the world.
Among the hundreds of academies, all are those who follow the holy path.
But at the same time, they are following different holy paths, so there can be no collusion.
Those who follow the holy path are relatively easier to convince the public.
Therefore, using hundreds of academies to monitor the world is the best choice.
At the same time, this is also beneficial to Baijia College, making it easier for Baijia College to establish schools in various places."
After listening to Wu Zhao's words, Ning Chen realized that he had completely overthought things.
What is the watchman, Dongchang, Xichang, Jinyiwei?
These are all things I think about too much.
What Wu Zhao thought was simpler and more direct, and at the same time effective.
Just as Wu Zhao said, hundreds of colleges have the same voice to the outside world.
But internally, because they follow different holy paths, there will definitely be competition.
If there is a competitive relationship, the purity of the team can be maintained to a large extent.
At the same time, because the students in Baijia College all follow the holy path.
Even if those under surveillance were resistant, they would not be able to tell Wu Zhao anything wrong.
Because Wu Zhao used these students who followed the holy path from Baijia College to do things, which was a selfless performance from the bottom of his heart.
In this way, it was directly avoided that Wu Zhao would set up a new department and rumors of tyranny would spread below, and at the same time, he also solved what he wanted to do.
As for people inside Baijia Academy, are they worried about being isolated?
What a joke.
It seems that without the right to monitor the world given by Wu Zhao, the students in Baijia College would not be isolated.
Giving such a right will stimulate the motivation of students within Baijia College.
Let them dig more and dig deeper into the problem.
It is best to solve these problems by pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, so as to get a little more dirty water for other systems of practice.
In this way, the Baijia system can obtain more resources.
Kill multiple birds with one stone.
And Ning Chen still can't refuse this matter.
Not only because of this matter, it is beneficial to Baijia Academy.
Mainly because Baijia College is the foundation for Ning Chen's survival.
Without Baijia Academy, Ning Chen’s Baijia Way would really not be able to continue.
The only thing that makes Ning Chen a little depressed is that he can no longer initiate prison edicts casually.
If this was possible, Ning Chen would go directly to the court to capture a few loyal ministers and get a few censors.
Why worry that your reputation as a sycophant will not skyrocket?
It would be really cool if we could trigger some more events.
Of course, Ning Chen must also admire Wu Zhao's ability.
I'm afraid Wu Zhao had already thought about today's step when he elevated Baijia College to a status equal to Confucianism and Taoism.
"Tomorrow morning at the court meeting, I will announce that I will give Baijia College the right to study and study. At the same time, as the dean of Baijia College, you will naturally be promoted to another level."
Ning Chen understood, this was to use promotion to seal his mouth.
"My lord, thank you for your kindness." What else could Ning Chen say, just thank him directly.
Although it is okay to refuse Wu Zhao's arrangement, rejecting Wu Zhao's arrangement would be tantamount to destroying the Great Wall. This kind of thing is not worth it.
Fortunately, this method can also establish the character of Ning Chen who is in opposition to the ministers.
In terms of character, Ning Chen still stands up.
Without any other matters, Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao also left Wu Zhao.
After leaving, Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao went directly to Baijia Academy.
In the more than two months since Ning Chen left, the new campus of Baijia College was planned by Liu Zhongzhi.
It has begun to take shape.
In addition to the Yin-Yang family that was first established, farmers' families, military families, and Legalists have all been established.
Although other places are still empty, some of the necessary infrastructure is still there.
All houses are built according to the same specifications.
At the same time, Ning Chen's dean's office was built in the center of the entire new campus.
Ning Chen met Liu Zhongzhi in the dean's office.
He told Liu Zhongzhi what Wu Zhao told him today.
Although Liu Zhongzhi has an upright character, that is only when it comes to matters between men and women.
He can still tell the difference between good and bad things.
What Ning Chen just told him was a great blessing to Liu Zhongzhi.
"This is a very good thing, Dean. Our hundreds of colleges have always planned to build schools in various places.
It's just because of the manpower issue on the one hand, and the cost issue on the other hand.
Now that there is support from the court, there is no need to worry about this cost issue.
As for manpower, I believe that once this news comes out, many people will be willing to join."
Ning Chen said to Liu Zhongzhi: "Senior brother, it's better for you to decide on this specific charter. In terms of candidates, I believe that senior brother can definitely select the right person.
Senior brother, you just need to remember one thing: our hundreds of colleges must be worthy of our own conscience.
We must resolutely fight against those evil forces. The people we send out must have the spirit of not being afraid of death and not being afraid of death.
Hundreds of academies have their strong backing. As long as there is a problem, we will definitely get to the bottom of it."
Since there is no new department, Ning Chen decided to be a righteous minister.
As for entrusting such a task to Liu Zhongzhi, who can't see the sand and women in his eyes, it is absolutely foolproof.
Ning Chen believes that the person chosen by Liu Zhongzhi is not much different from Liu Zhongzhi, but it is not too different.
Ning Chen wants to build Baijia Academy into a place where corrupt or honest officials will be frightened by the news.
Liu Zhongzhi, on the other hand, became excited after hearing Ning Chen's impassioned speech.
Liu Zhongzhi felt that he had not trusted the wrong person. Ning Chen was just like him, hating evil as much as he hated evil.
"Dean, don't worry, I will definitely fulfill my duties." Liu Zhongzhi said swornly.
Ning Chen nodded and said to Liu Zhongzhi: "I will put up a business sign in the next two days."
After hearing Ning Chen's words, Liu Zhongzhi looked happy and said, "The dean plans to open a business path?"
Ning Chen said: "It's not just me opening it, it's just helping others open a business path."
While Ning Chen was discussing opening a business road, there were also people from the demon clan and the mission from the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions who were considering matters related to the business road.
