Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 234 Island-wide Planning
Without Gu Leyou, Chen Jin could only create the god himself.As for the name, he planned to build an Izumo Temple in the city of Rakshasa Mansion.

Gu Leyou's biggest wish was to establish Taoist temples in various state capitals. Chen Jin's move was tantamount to paving the way for Taoist priests in advance.

After all, Gu Leyou and others will come across the sea sooner or later and take root on the island.

The construction of Taoist temples also requires people and money.

Chen Jin immediately told Cui Qizhao about this idea.

Cui Qizhao pondered: "Then who will be the master of this temple? It's a pity that Aunt Jian is not here. If she were here, she could support the facade."

Chen Jin smiled and said: "Aunt Jian is not good. Her image is scary and she is not good at management. Just look at the situation of Duanyun Temple in the capital."

"That's right. The poisonous skills she practices raise large groups of snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Keep strangers away."

"Actually, considering Aunt Jian's situation, she will develop better on the island. Why did you let her stay in the Central Plains?"

Cui Qizhao sighed: "She stayed voluntarily, saying she was not willing to give up all her foundation... There are not many people around me who can use it."

Chen Jin blinked: "Speaking of which, it's a good thing that General Hong came with us. Otherwise, I wouldn't know where to start."

Cui Qizhao said: "Brother Hong is indeed a capable general, but in the meeting, he couldn't display all his talents, so he simply dressed up as a beggar and played in the world."

Hong Youzhi used to be at the level of a general and was good at training and using troops. However, in the Tongwenhui, he had to keep a low profile and it was impossible to set up a military camp and regiment, so there was no room for him to use them.

At most, it's just some strategic planning.

But it was completely different when he arrived at Raksha Haizhou. With Chen Jin's status and orders, Hong Youzhi could recruit new soldiers and start large-scale military training.

As long as there is money to support it, over time, thousands or even tens of thousands of elite soldiers can be trained.

Cui Qizhao has obviously considered this prospect, but he also has concerns: "Shou Heng, Brother Hong has been training troops a lot, and now he is patrolling the streets again, in full view of the public. If he is seen by some informants, he will definitely report it to the court. "

Chen Jin replied: "It's very possible."

"Then if the imperial court has taboos and sends an imperial envoy to question you, or wants to transfer you, how should you deal with it?"

"Haha, to be honest, since I have chosen to come here, I am not happy to move."

"did you mean?"

Cui Qizhao's eyes lit up, and he thought of a lot at once, and his heart beat wildly: It turned out that Chen Jin's thoughts were so deep, and he thought so far.

But it shouldn’t be...

She established a literary association and wanted to fight against the military and return to civil society. That was due to her status and she had no choice; but what about Chen Jin?You obviously have a bright future, why do you take risks and do such arrogant things that may even lead to the death of the nine tribes?

Chen Jin explained: "Actually, I just want to plan a way out. I don't want to be caught by the people in the inner factory and sent to prison."

Cui Qizhao said: "If you were careful in your words and deeds, how could you be sent to prison?"

Chen Jin smiled and said: "That's not sure... If you want to accuse me, why bother? I have been in the capital for so many days, and I don't study behind closed doors every day. I have my own feelings about what I see and hear. Besides, I save I have passed you twice. For this crime alone, you will be cut to pieces."

Cui Qizhao: "...That's because I'm causing trouble for you."

"do not!"

Chen Jin waved his hand: "I remember what my teacher said. He was betrayed by his friends in Lingnan and committed suicide in prison. Later, he was used by the new emperor. I asked him, if you can endure the humiliation and bear the burden and don't hit the wall, what will happen? Wouldn't it be possible for him to recover, become an official again, and flourish? But he said: "With my temperament, after I become an official in Beijing, I will definitely not understand what the inner factory is doing, and I will definitely write a letter to remonstrate. Then what will be waiting for me?" What will happen?'"

Cui Qizhao was stunned: "Is he sent to prison?"

"That's right, then, which one would be better, running into a wall and dying, or being sentenced to prison?"

Cui Qizhao understood and sighed: "I would rather die."

Even she said this, so she knew that she had a reputation of being imprisoned, and being caught in it would be worse than death.Chen Jin said: "With my character, even if I don't save you, I will do something against the emperor's order sooner or later."

Cui Qizhao smiled brightly: "So you are very suitable to join the Tongwen Club."

"I am still different from you... Apart from this, you are right to remind me that I asked General Hong to train troops in Rakshasa. This matter will inevitably touch the taboo. We must make arrangements in advance. Not only must we build the city well, but we must also control the docks, etc. A key place. In my opinion, it is best to build a new dock and make it easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"..."

Cui Qizhao couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "You want to build a school, a new city, a Taoist temple...and now you want to build a dock. The few carts of money I brought are not enough for you."

Chen Jin coughed dryly: "It can't be said that it's for my own use, it's also for everyone. From now on, Raksha Haizhou will be the base camp of Tongwenhui. What a good thing."

Cui Qizhao curled his lips and said: "I have come over to you and become your subordinate. How can there be any Tongwenhui? You are tolerant. If I turn against the guest and occupy the dove's nest, wouldn't it be ridiculed by others? Alas, it's not me. We are reluctant to spend money, but we can’t help but spend it. We are sitting on nothing and it cannot last forever.”

"Of course I know, don't worry, a lot of money will come soon."

"You mean the mountains?"

Cui Qizhao is as smart as ice and snow, and can reveal everything at a glance.

Chen Jin smiled and said: "Exactly. The four major tribes have been entrenched in Rakshasa for hundreds of years, and they have plundered and squeezed out a lot of people's fat and anointing. As long as we capture them, we won't have to worry about running out of money."

Cui Qizhao said: "I heard that they are difficult to deal with."

"It would be a bit tricky if I was the only one, but now that you are here and we work together, why worry about making things happen?"

"Tsk, tsk, I finally heard it. No wonder you worked so hard to treat my illness and injuries. Do you want me to take action and sacrifice my life for you?"

Chen Jin said sternly: "I have already said that the foundation of this land is not mine. Everyone has a share, so why should we share it with each other?"

Hearing this, Cui Qizhao seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but blush: "You are an adult anyway, I can't disobey you. If you want to do something, just give it an order."

Chen Jin does have many ideas, but due to being alone and alone, it was difficult to take care of both, so he had to work step by step.Now, with Cui Qizhao and the others joining, we can move forward on multiple fronts.

The government office is a position, and Cui Qizhao is in charge, and it is already in good order; the Confucian Temple and School are another position, and Chen Jin and Master Lin are in charge of it, so there is basically no problem; the Fucheng military camp, security and defense, including the dock, etc., are all handed over to Hong Ambitious.

Hong Youzhi was not alone. He promoted and appointed several lieutenants and assigned them to lead their respective teams and perform their respective duties.

There were soldiers patrolling the city, and all kinds of weird incidents were immediately suppressed, and they didn't happen much anymore.

It can be seen here that the four major tribes represented by Cai Tongpan were not ready to completely break up with Chen Jin; or they were shocked by the majestic military momentum and were caught off guard .

No matter what, this is a good thing for Chen Jin.

When the situation in the city stabilized, people's hearts also stabilized, and at the same time, people's confidence in the government office was greatly increased.

this point is very important.

As for the location of Izumo-monastery, Chen Jin had already chosen it, and he was still looking for people from Lao Hu’s group.After they built the Confucian Temple, they were safe and well paid, and they were very motivated to work.When I heard that a Taoist temple was going to be built, I agreed without saying a word.

Chen Jin's current construction plan is to build the Taoist temple house first. As for the internal statues, they still need to be considered.

After all, he is not a Taoist, so he cannot copy the way of building a Confucian temple.

Many things are different, copied mechanically, and may be a joke.

Time flies, and soon the day comes to attend the Mountain and Sea Festival.

This time, Chen Jin and Cui Qizhao went hand in hand.
