Chapter 2883 The Third Cultivation Technique Exchange Feast
If we're talking about the places that have been toughest on migrating and transport teams, it's no surprise that it's the Great Wilderness Territory.
The major core legions of the Great Wilderness Territory, coordinating by land and water, not only plunder wealth and resources, but also kidnap people!
This greatly angered Dong Zhuo's camp, but unfortunately, no matter how they tried to stop them, the army from the Great Wilderness territory was able to escape successfully.
Enraged, Dong Zhuo ordered Li Ru to set up a trap targeting several legion commanders, hoping to boost morale and intimidate the Lin Mu tribe.
Unfortunately, all these schemes failed.
Later, Li Ru even sought out Guo Jia, who had been devising strategies behind the scenes, to negotiate.
The outcome of the negotiations surprised many people.
The armies of the Great Wilderness Territory will no longer attack migrating and transport teams!
Therefore, Ji Beiqin, Bei Tangxue, and others hurriedly sought out Guo Jia.
"Military Advisor Fengxiao, why has the war ended?" Ji Beiqin asked immediately after arriving at a temporary camp and meeting Guo Jia.
Guo Jia had secretly conveyed to them the suggestion to stop pursuing Dong Zhuo and to relocate the main force and the transportation department.
They all highly valued the suggestions and proposals from the Great Wilderness Territory, so they temporarily stopped.
"We made our demands, and they agreed, so we ceased hostilities," Guo Jia said with a faint smile.
Looking at the incredibly handsome and exceptionally intelligent man before them, the female lords, including Beitang Xue and Zhang Xueying, couldn't help but feel a stirring in their hearts.
Lin Mu is handsome, but not conventionally so. His profound knowledge and numerous world-renowned achievements are a definite plus. Guo Jia may not have any major news stories, but his striking good looks and legendary wisdom are formidable assets.
Both of them would be extremely popular and exceptionally handsome men!
Beitang Xue suppressed her admiration and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Fengxiao, would you be willing to tell us what our conditions are?"
"Of course... the condition is: homeless refugees..." Guo Jia paused here.
"Ten million households!" Guo Jia said quietly.
"Dong Zhuo, you're transferring ten million households of refugees to you?!" Zhang Xueying exclaimed in shock.
“How is this possible?! Where are there so many refugees?!” Zhang Xueying exclaimed again.
Let alone ten million households, even ten million people would be unimaginable figures.
Upon hearing this, Guo Jia smiled mysteriously.
Seeing the smile on Guo Jiajun's handsome face, Beitang Xue analyzed quietly, "Although there are more than ten million households in the migration procession from Luoyang, the capital, most of them are families of officials or relatives, or wealthy merchants, families of outstanding craftsmen, and so on. Although there are also ten million ordinary people, would they be willing to migrate?"
Clearly, she knew that the so-called refugees were just a facade.
She casually described the composition of the migrating team, clearly indicating that she had done prior research on this.
Guo Jia glanced at Beitang Xue with surprise. This extraordinary woman is quite something.
“Yes… millions of households—this would shake the very foundation of the people of Luoyang, the capital. Would Dong Zhuo agree to this? Would the people consent?” Ji Beiqin asked in a deep voice.
"There are quite a few ordinary people along the way... Xiliang has plundered them occasionally, and they may become even more rampant in the future. As for the ordinary people in Luoyang, the capital... they will become refugees," Guo Jia said meaningfully.
"Hiss!!" Everyone gasped upon hearing this.
They have figured some things out by now.
Previously, Dong Zhuo's camp rarely raided surrounding cities and towns because of the threat from the army in the Great Wilderness territory.
But once the external threat disappears, given the brutal and greedy nature of the Xiliang army, will they spare the people along the way?
"Mr. Fengxiao, is your plan a triple kill?!" Beitang Xue exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh? What makes you say that?" Guo Jia asked, raising an eyebrow.
"First, it weakens the foundation of the people in Dong Zhuo's camp, causing them to lose their potential for development; second, it causes them to lose the support of the people, allowing their army to plunder the countryside and plunder migrant households, thus shaking the people's morale; third, it protects ordinary people from life-or-death dangers, preserves the foundation for development in Shenzhou, and adds development potential to the Great Wilderness territory. How brilliant!!!" Beitang Xue quickly explained.
Everyone else was terrified upon hearing this. This plan was terrifying!
Guo Jia gave Beitang Xue another deep look. He had only mentioned it briefly, but this woman had already revealed several layers of meaning in his plan. She was quite intelligent.
“But with a strategist like Li Ru on the other side, how could they not discover the problem?” Ji Beiqin suddenly said.
"Of course they'll find out, but do you think they care? Hehe..." Guo Jia said with a faint smile.
“Those ordinary households have large populations and consume a lot of food every day, which would be a burden for the migrants. There are quite a few ordinary households around Chang’an City, and there is no shortage of people to farm.”
"Sometimes the locals even thank Dong Zhuo for doing this, because the farmland near Chang'an is limited, and the pressure of having so many farmers added out of nowhere is unimaginable."
"Moreover, after Dong Zhuo plunders, his wealth and resources will increase to a terrifying level..."
"It's just a matter of popular support and development potential... Their biggest concern is that it will boost our foundation," Guo Jia explained calmly.
Hearing this, everyone nodded thoughtfully. Each conversation with Guo Jia was incredibly rewarding. Being around a wise man truly had an influence.
"By the way, my lord just sent word that every thousand households of ordinary people can exchange for a spot to learn the Zhou Tian Transport Technique," Guo Jia suddenly announced loudly. "What?!" Everyone was shocked again upon hearing this.
Then, everyone looked at each other and remained silent.
Lin Mu had already used up about 180,000 slots by exchanging meteorites in Luoyang, the capital city. And now he's back again?!
Oh right, the previous spots haven't been claimed yet... and now they're offering again? It feels a bit like they're trying to get something for nothing.
"As announced before, there are still 120,000 spots available..." Guo Jia said calmly, as if he could read everyone's minds.
"Don't worry, the number of places to learn the cultivation technique will exceed your expectations, and we will definitely satisfy them!" Guo Jia said meaningfully.
He greatly admired his lord Lin Mu's actions.
The general consensus was to promote the service for free to quickly accumulate a large number of slots, but Lin Mu rejected this suggestion outright.
Free things can be very appealing at times, but they can also become a source of concern for some, leading to conspiracy theories...
However, things are different when it's exchanged for a large sum of money. Especially since nothing much happens after those from the upper classes exchange for it, it's much easier to promote to ordinary people because it has already generated a following!
Once these 300,000 slots are released, even more people will flock to them.
Even players on foreign servers are extremely enthusiastic about it.
Lin Mu accepted all offers of help.
"Where are we going to find so many households? Are we going to plunder them? Won't that cause karmic consequences? Won't it deduct our reputation?" Zhang Xueying hesitated and whispered.
"The Age of Chaos has begun, and reputation will no longer be deducted!" Ji Beiqin said with certainty.
The others looked at Ji Beiqin strangely, as if he had already done such a thing.
"I robbed some wealthy and heartless families," Ji Beiqin confessed frankly without hiding anything.
Goodness, they actually did it.
"You guys go quickly... This information isn't limited to you, but I can delay releasing it for a few days as a kind of benefit for you," Guo Jia said calmly.
"Since the people will suffer the ruthless plunder of the Xiliang cavalry anyway, why don't we take action to minimize casualties and preserve the national strength of our Huaxia region! Let's do it!!" Ji Beiqin immediately said.
In fact, after he knew he wouldn't be punished by the system, he looted many towns and villages while raiding Dong Zhuo's transport team.
He didn't commit much killing, after all, people can be bought and sold, and they can be sold for a lot of money.
Now that Lin Mu needs it, it's even simpler.
Afterwards, Guo Jia explained some details to everyone, such as where to deliver the goods, when to deliver them, etc.
They were even more excited when they learned that they could deliver the goods simply along the banks of the nearby Yellow River, without having to travel too far.
And so, the third weekly exchange feast for players began!
The first was the war in the Celestial Spirit Realm, and the second was the meteorite in Luoyang, the capital of the gods.
Thus, Ji Beiqin and his men, who had stopped attacking Dong Zhuo's camp, began to turn their swords against the townspeople along the way...
Although some bloody incidents were inevitable during the process, it was generally a good one.
Thus, the two prefectures of Hongnong and Jingzhao suffered an unprecedented and terrible fourth natural disaster: being trafficked, forced to leave their homes, and forced to become homeless!
The warlords of Guandong didn't attack, so why did they suddenly suffer such a calamity? Many people were baffled.
That's right, when Ji Beiqin and his men took action, they were still using the banner of the Kwantung Army.
Yuan Shao: Damn it... I've been burdened with such a terrible reputation!
Ji Beiqin and his men's actions could not be kept secret. At first, everyone was puzzled as to why they didn't pursue Dong Zhuo's wealthy group, but instead turned their blades on the ordinary people's homes along the way... Many of these families were even starving, let alone having any meat or oil to offer...
But gradually, things started to go wrong.
It's not just Ji Beiqin, but also Beitang Xue, Zhang Xueying, the Great Wilderness Guild, and others, so something's up.
At first, Ji Beiqin and the others resisted the pressure and didn't say anything, but after they finished looting some towns that were easy to plunder, they got together and started acting as middlemen.
That's right, two thousand households are exchanged for one spot to learn the martial arts technique!
The fact that they proactively revealed it gave them a three-day thrill, as a steady stream of civilian households were sent up by the player lords.
Some who established territories nearby even offered their own households as gifts in exchange...
This shows just how malevolent this wind is!
However, the more decisive you are at that moment, the more you will regret it later.
When the Great Wilderness Territory announced that one thousand households could exchange for one spot to learn a cultivation technique, they all jumped up in anger.
There was no time for them to cause trouble for Ji Beiqin and his group, because everyone had already started taking action.
There are too many people and not enough meat, so if you go late, it'll be gone... (End of Chapter)
