An acquaintance asked the monk why. The monk happened to have some wine and said, "I got a treasure map a while ago. When I looked at the location, I happened to have been there two days ago, so I went to touch it."
As expected, one hundred thousand spirit-gathering pills were dug out of the ground."
The people around him immediately exploded.
This is not the only example. Two days later, someone brought back one million jins of grain and 500,000 jins of iron from outside the city, making them all rich.
Every time I asked, I found it through a treasure map.
All cities are the same.
Suddenly, the Daxuan people, who had been embarrassed by resources for so long, all wanted to take a beating. The treasure map turned out to be real. So what are you waiting for? Go out of the city and hunt for treasure!
"Brothers, I know this place, let's go."
"There is another place I have been to. Let's take a walk. What are we waiting for?"
The monks went out in groups to hunt for treasure.
The craftsmen who have resumed work in the past two months put down their work and went hunting for treasures.
The shop was open for a few days but the business was not good, so it was closed and I took the waiter on a treasure hunt.
Officials also sent yamen to hunt for treasures.
Suddenly, everyone inside and outside the city joined the treasure hunting team.
If there was still a lot of risk in speculation before, treasure hunting is a guaranteed profit. Seeing that people are coming back with treasures one after another, who can still sit still.
In just seven days, the order inside and outside the city was disrupted. All businesses in the city were paralyzed. It was impossible to buy food, elixirs, and medicinal herbs.
Even the government officials and patrolling soldiers could not be found. They were all sent by officials of all sizes to hunt for the treasure.
When the soldiers guarding the city saw that even the officials were leaving the city, they gradually began to lose control.
"Brothers, we have to go through life and death all day just to get a few wages. How can we support our wives and children if we lose our lives?" A deputy general said to the soldiers below.
The soldiers had already been moved. After hearing this, they said directly: "We will do whatever the general says."
"I'm familiar with the place where this treasure map is hidden. I'll take you there. Once we get the treasure, we'll have to leave here. There's no place we can't stay." The lieutenant general said.
"Yes, let's go too."
"But what should we do if our family is implicated?" A soldier expressed his worries.
"Do you think there are still people under those officials now? Who doesn't want to hunt for treasure and make a fortune, who wants to be an errand." The deputy general said disdainfully.
"That's right..."
"Brothers, let's go and get out of the city!"
When the princes received the news, they couldn't control it. The temptation of the treasure was so great that their officials were not even willing to stop it. After all, they also wanted to make a fortune.
In such a war-torn era, everything is empty, and making a fortune yourself is the most beneficial option.
There was chaos, all the more than 20 states of Daxuan were in chaos, everyone was looking for treasures like crazy, and the city defenses were ineffective.
Later, there was even friction between states. Some people got treasure maps indicating that the location of the treasure was in a neighboring state. What should they do? Of course, call them.
The major princes gathered together in person to discuss countermeasures this time. The final countermeasure was to wait until these treasure maps were used up and when no more treasures could be dug out, the people would naturally live in peace.
Moreover, they also sent people to inspect these treasures and found that only one-fifth of them were real treasure maps, and most of them had nothing buried.
And the amount of resources that the black hand took away from their territory was far more than this. That person actually used only a little profit to fish, which made people's hearts scattered and couldn't get them together even if they wanted to.
This man has mastered the art of manipulating people's hearts to the extreme. Without even a single soldier, their city defenses will collapse. If they attack now, they will probably have no choice but to pack up and run away.
This treasure hunting farce lasted for a whole month, and people were exhausted. Most people did not find the treasure, and the few who found the treasure inevitably had competition from others and even internal strife.
Just like the previous speculation, the vast majority of people were losers, and because of the constant fighting, a large amount of elixirs and food were consumed, so not only did they not get anything, the city was also poorer.
The princes absolve everyone of their guilt and let them perform their duties, but this month has consumed people's perseverance. They are shrouded in the haze of despair and feel that their future is bleak.
It is difficult for people's hearts to be reunited when they are separated.
At this time, Mu Qianyu, who had been preparing for three months, launched a counterattack.
Three armies came out, one led by Wu Anbang, who led an army of 300,000 people out of Daya Pass to attack the southeast.
Along the way, Sikong Yu came out from Jiangbei Prefecture and also led an army of 300,000 to attack Hanzhou first and then various cities in the southwest.
Mu Qianyu personally took command along the way and led an army of 200,000 from Daya Pass to attack Zhongluzhou County and seize the imperial city ahead.
All the princes were panicked for a while. The treasure map incident had just passed, but their territories were still in a state of unexploitation, and the soldiers had not yet established city defenses.
Sikong Yu was the first to arrive at the city. When he arrived at Hanzhou City, he found that there was no city defense force, and a few soldiers were napping on the city wall.
The horn of attack sounded, and the hungry and desperate soldiers did not even want to resist. No matter what Zhou Bai ordered, the people below would obey and disobey.
Zhou Bai had no choice but to fight. He obviously didn't know Sikong Yu's strength. The third move between the two of them, his head was cut off by Sikong Yu's long sword.
Leng Haoran and Lan Jin shook their heads repeatedly, feeling that this guy really overestimated his abilities.
When Zhou Bai died, the guards of Hanzhou City even ran away. If they didn't guard, their lives would be important.
So on the third day of the siege, two flags were planted on Hanzhou City, one was the king's flag with the word "Mu", and the other was the handsome flag with the word "Sikong".
After the siege, Xiang Ziyou's Chamber of Commerce settled in Hanzhou. Suddenly, a large supply of food and pills came in.
The soldiers and civilians who had been hungry for a long time, and the monks who had been short of elixirs for a long time, felt the warmth of capital in an instant, and everything they had lost before was regained.
People were so happy that they almost shed tears. Only by following such a lord would one have a future, so the soldiers expressed their loyalty one after another, and even the people cheered and loved Mu Qianyu.
Mu Qianyu was well-known before Daxuan, and because he held the imperial seal, the people felt that this was the orthodoxy, and those who supported other princes were traitors.
This man's heart was drawn in so quickly that even Sikong Yu, who had read the art of war for so many years, was surprised. The three of his senior brothers occasionally talked together, and they also admired Beichen Ye's methods.
The other two armies were also so overwhelming.
Outside Daya Pass are the six cities that Qingzhou once lost. Mu Qianyu's soldiers dispersed as soon as they arrived, and they could not organize any combat power at all.
