Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Chapter 1333 Agreement, Wuhun Pyramid (3K)

Asking for recommendations and monthly passes

……

At this time, the clear voice of Chen Zixiu, the head of the Chen family and the old man, rang out: "Okay, Xiaojun, your plan is too radical and not feasible."

"How about this, there will be no academies in small towns. We will only build schools in county towns, middle towns, and those special key small towns."

"In this way, the number of cities in each county should not exceed 10, the total number of cities in the five southern counties should be controlled within 50, and the number of basic colleges should be capped at 100."

“One advanced vocational and technical college in each county should be enough.”

"Chu Xin, do you think this plan and scale are feasible?"

These cities are all regional central cities, and their influence radiates to several surrounding small cities.

According to Blue Star Dongguo, it has changed from county level to prefecture level.

On the surface, this layout does not seem to be outrageous in scale.

With a limit of 100 basic academies and a scale of people in each academy, the total number of warriors trained is about .

Compared to the initial idea of ​​25, the number has been significantly reduced to only %.

……

You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and if you take too big a step, you will hurt your balls.

Chen Xiaojun's strategies have always been like this, bold and groundbreaking, meticulous, interconnected, and each step can be considered ingenious, but also revealing a sense of urgency.

Chen Zixiu was indeed mature and steady. As soon as he made a move, he changed the situation.
His amendment was precise and just the right amount of soldiers.

It would neither embarrass the Xue sisters, nor be so inconsiderate as to cause the plan to fail in the womb.

Everything is arranged so logically and there is nothing wrong with it.

Xue Chuxin and her sister Xue Churan looked at each other in silence, then said after a moment, "This plan is feasible."

"However, the allocation of places for the academy's graduates and students must be made together with our Chang'an Military Region, otherwise we will not be able to explain to the Imperial Capital."

Chen Zixiu looked calm, nodded and said in a deep voice: "Okay."

"The Imperial Guard and the Chang'an Military Region will allocate these students together. Your military region can also take up more places."

"However, after they retire, we need to guide them to join the Royal Guards."

"Also, regarding the expenses, we will split them equally. What do you think?"

Xue Chuxin and Xue Churan exchanged glances quickly, and after confirming that everything was correct, they nodded slightly to show their agreement.

These soldiers do not graduate at the same time, but rather graduate over six years, so that only about 1.7 soldiers enter society each year.

The number of soldiers added each year is less than 1, with the Chen family and the Chang'an Military Region making the allocation, and a small number of students seeking to make a living on their own.

Even if the scope is expanded to the entire province, the number of new fighters added each year will only be 2.5.

This figure is well within the normal range of personnel losses and retirements in the provincial military region, and can be handled in the name of the Chang'an Military Region's reserve army.

Originally they had to recruit new soldiers every year, but now they have a fixed source, which saves them trouble and is more systematic and loyal.

It is worth mentioning that Xue Churan, as the deputy governor of the Chang'an Military Region, is in charge of both military and political affairs and is responsible for the dispatch of military supplies as well as reserve and reserve affairs.

The establishment of a warrior academy was within the scope of his duties, and even the related financial expenditures had reasonable reasons.

……

Seeing that they reached a consensus, everyone present felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

Even Chen Xiaojun couldn't help but smile slightly.

Xia Qingyun's charming phoenix eyes swept across Chen Xiaojun's face and chuckled, "My dear grandson, this is not your strategy of retreating by advancing, is it?"

Her words woke everyone up and made everyone's attention focus on Chen Xiaojun's face again.

Chen Xiaojun just smiled indifferently and did not answer.

Everyone present is an old fox, so even if he tries to argue now, it will be useless.

What's more, what Xia Qingyun said was not entirely unreasonable. He did have such thoughts in his mind, taking three steps forward and two steps back.

He is not a fool. With such a big project, he will definitely be boycotted.

It's nothing but empty promises.

Therefore, Xia Qingyun's next words hit exactly what Chen Xiaojun wanted.

"Xiao Jun, since the cooperation with Fasno Province has been finalized, can our Barak Kingdom also cooperate in this way?"

Xia Qingyun looked at Chen Xiaojun with burning eyes.

Chen Xiaojun was slightly stunned, and then subconsciously looked at Chen Zixiu.

After all, such an important decision still needs to be decided by Chen Zixiu, the head of the Chen family.

Chen Zixiu is such a great man that he would naturally not miss such a good opportunity to expand his influence and deepen cooperation.

He made the decision immediately and hit it off with Xia Qingyun, who nodded in agreement readily.

……

Xia Qingyun's eyes were full of agility, and she smiled as brightly as a blooming flower in spring. She suddenly said, "Chu Xin, I'm afraid that our Divine Bird Sect's Queyu team will soon reappear in the world and shine brightly!"

"Who knows, there may be someone who can have a great opportunity to reawaken their soul power."

Xue Chuxin was slightly startled. She had never expected Xia Qingyun to suddenly talk to her.

She subconsciously gathered her brocade cuffs, which were embroidered with a pattern of hundreds of butterflies flying through flowers. The delicate cuffs trembled slightly with her movements, like the fluttering wings of a butterfly.

Then, she opened her cherry lips and responded softly, "Sister, you are absolutely right."

The origin of the Queyu profession can be traced back to the period of the Tianshou Sect. At that time, the Shennong Sect devoted all their efforts and painstaking research to develop this unique profession.

This profession is aimed at those who have flying martial spirits but no soul power.

Their main means of combat is to use their hardened, weaponized wings to launch fierce attacks, and they can use their wings to glide briefly in the sky.

Among the many warrior professions, Queyu is undoubtedly a very high-end existence.

In fact, there is also a small group of Queyu people in the armies of their two provinces.

They are as swift as the wind and can be quite useful on the battlefield.

If a large-scale team of Queyu people were to be established, it would surely be something that a force like the Nihuang Ma family would be more than happy to have.

They will certainly be willing to donate generously and give out money to allow those who have lost their soul power due to malignant mutation to practice the early stages of Que Yu.

After all, this is a feasible way for those people to find a way out.

This kind of situation where there is no soul power due to malignant mutation exists in all major families, and there are not too many of them.

The Xue family and the Xia family are royal families with many branches under their jurisdiction, and the same is true.

……

In other words, each top-level martial soul is a pyramid-shaped martial soul system.

The main vein is at the top, and underneath it is a huge and complex martial soul branch.

From the seventh rank martial spirit onwards, the path to advancement becomes increasingly difficult and the time required is greatly extended.

During this long period of time, mutated martial spirits have continued to emerge like mushrooms after rain.

However, although these mutated martial spirits appear in endlessly, only a few can be truly passed down and inherited.

But if the timeline is extended to thousands of years, this branching system will become more and more like a snowball.

By the time a martial soul is promoted to the ninth rank, its branch system becomes quite large.

Of course, all of this has a crucial premise - these families must survive tenaciously in the cruel and ruthless world of soul masters.

The world of soul masters is ever-changing and full of crises. Not only are there unpredictable natural and man-made disasters, but there is also fierce competition for resources and territory.

The Chen family is a vivid example.

The reason why their branches live a comfortable life and are becoming increasingly powerful is closely related to their having taken the lead in competing for territory.

It is precisely by relying on the control of resources and the expansion of territory that the branch of the Chen family has been able to flourish.

In contrast, for most families, their branch spirits often live in the same area as the main line, with limited resources and territory, making it difficult to support many branch members.

In this difficult situation, the appearance of people without soul power became more and more frequent.

……

There are more people without soul power in the family, and they may take positive or negative actions based on their own situation.

Positive actions:

1. Find a way out
Learn a skill: Due to the limitations of soul power cultivation, those without soul power will take the initiative to learn skills such as business management and use family resources to start new businesses.

Join special jobs: Choose to join less demanding jobs such as intelligence gathering and family clerkships to play to your strengths.

Not to mention intelligence personnel, civil servants are a very common path, responsible for managing the family's accounts, paperwork, etc.

These things are too important and cannot be left to human hands. The family spirit master does not have so much time, so the best choice is to have a soulless person with family blood to do it.

Of course, becoming a professional fighter is also a path, but it is rarely taken.

Firstly, because the cost-effectiveness of resource utilization is not high, there are few pure family supporters, and many people do not even have the resources;
Secondly, it is too hard. Even if you are successful, your status in the family will increase, but it will not change unless the atmosphere changes.

2. Solidarity and mutual assistance
Establish mutual aid organizations: organize spontaneously, share resources, information and experience, and support each other when encountering difficulties.

Unite for rights: Realizing the power of unity, unite to fight for fair education, training opportunities and resource distribution.

3. Assisting the family
Provide logistical support: When the family is involved in a war or major event, purchase, transport and store materials to ensure the needs of the front line.

Pass on family culture: Take the responsibility of passing on family history and culture, and let the younger generation understand the family by teaching traditions and special skills.

Negative behavior:

1. Breeding negative emotions
Inferiority complex and denial: In a family environment where soul power is paramount, it is easy to develop an inferiority complex, self-denial, lose confidence in life, and even commit suicide.

Complaining about family: After inferiority complex accumulates, one will be dissatisfied and complain about the family, feeling that they are not getting enough attention and support.

2. Cause internal conflicts
Fighting for limited resources: Resources are limited, and those without soul power will fight over a small amount of resources, such as some medicines that help improve physical fitness, which may lead to disputes and even conflicts.

Division and confrontation: Failure to meet demands will lead to division into different factions, involving family members, generating confrontational emotions and exacerbating conflicts within the family.

3. Seek externalization or detachment

Relying on external forces: When it is difficult for the family to survive and develop, they will rely on external forces that value other skills, talents and connections, so that they can be connected with the family.

This is still considered good, but I am afraid that others will take advantage of it, sell family intelligence, and betray the family.

Leaving the family: A few people who are disappointed with the family will choose to leave and start over in a new place with their own skills.

……

In short, the management of people without soul power is a difficult problem.

It’s a headache of all kinds. You can’t kill it, you can’t drive it away, and you can’t just let it fend for itself and spread negative energy.

In extreme cases like the Ma family, which is severely affected by malignant mutations, there are too many people without soul power and with low-level mutated and degraded martial souls. There is really no other way but to find another place to resettle them.

We also need to arrange special people to manage and care for them. What if their descendants suddenly return to their ancestral bloodline and awaken again?
If the blood is lost, it will be a very bad thing.
