I stole divine power in Daxia

Chapter 487 Days
Subsequently, the reforms in Tianjing were carried out in an orderly manner. Several money houses were officially renamed as Southeast Bank, Northern Province Bank and other banks, and were listed on the Tianjing Exchange to further absorb silver from the market.

At the same time, a large number of recruitments and silver bills issued half a month in advance urgently replenished the liquidity in the market. Ordinary people could participate in three different investments, including stocks, bonds, and deposits. At the same time, it also gradually affected the land economy around Tianjing.

Because of the labor shortage in the Tianjing market, Tianjin began to gradually absorb the labor force from the surrounding areas. Those hired farmers who originally had no land began to know the recruitment policies of major companies in Tianjin, and at the same time, major companies sent recruitment personnel to Tianjin.

The level of wages naturally affects people's choices. People began to be liberated from the land and participate in industrial production.

Of course there is also obstruction from the landlord class, but the thugs from the major banks and the personal guards Zhou Tieyi urgently transferred back will teach them how to behave.

At the same time, Zhou Tieyi did not just use sticks. He allowed several jointly-run agricultural companies to begin to play a role. Ordinary farmers who owned their own land and small landlords with excess land could lease the land to agricultural companies and thus obtain stable land income.

In this way, ordinary farmers are further recruited by various industrial production companies, or even local agricultural companies. Small landowners are unable to compete in the labor market, but have no choice but to gradually participate in this new economic model.

And because they were closest to Tianjing, they knew about the various economic reforms in Tianjing. Part of the capital they obtained was again absorbed by stocks, bonds, and deposits, forming a perfect reform cycle.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that Tianjing is not short of food at that time.

As for those places that lack food, it is easier to deal with. By using the method of work-for-relief, cheap labor can be directly plundered. And because the aristocratic families are involved in the reform, this reform is related to their own interests. So it will not be like the previous chaotic times, when the aristocratic families held a large amount of food and merchants drove up prices. Instead, because they own a large number of shares in the company, they will at least release food to the workers who are involved in building the factories.

Daxia has enjoyed peace for a long time. Although the imperial court is not wealthy, there is still enough surplus grain in the world. As long as the noble families are willing to donate grain, it will not be a problem to support the country for a year or two. Starting next spring, the prepared farming equipment will be introduced to large farms, and it will naturally produce results. By then, smart people will vote with their feet.

As this economic logic was put into operation, Daxia erupted in an unprecedented enthusiasm for reform. At least in the labor market, the number of newly added industrial labor force doubled compared to expectations!
Previously, Zhou Tieyi only counted the various "state-owned companies" he was operating, but as banks really began to gradually lend money, the enthusiasm of wealthy families and small and medium-sized businessmen to participate was extremely high. Emerging cement companies and various construction companies would recruit a large number of workers, followed closely by steel companies.

Netherworld.

At the appointed time, Zhao Qinxin waited on a small hill for half a day. If she were an ordinary practitioner, waiting in the netherworld for half a day would cause a lot of accidents and would be extremely dangerous.

But since she had inherited the Tianyinqin, this ordinary place in the underworld was like her own back garden to Zhao Qinxin.

"Sorry, I had some things to arrange, so I'm a little late."

With Zhao Qinxin's coordinates, Zhou Tieyi brought his elder brother to look for her, but this time he did not use the body of a god, but his own body.

It was also the first time that Zhou Tieyi saw Zhao Qinxin's true face. As the legitimate daughter of the Qing Emperor clan, Zhao Qinxin's facial features needless to say. In fact, at Zhou Tieyi's level, his aesthetic taste has gradually surpassed the beauty and ugliness judged by ordinary people. Instead, he cares more about the great principles of others, because beauty and ugliness can change in countless ways for them, but the great principle is the only thing that remains unchanged.

Zhao Qinxin obviously conforms to Zhou Tieyi's current aesthetic. Her long green dress does not fade at all in the dim underworld. Her vitality is extremely strong and endless, and is not affected by the decline of the underworld rules at all.

The facial features of her goddess-like appearance were not overbearing, but full of youthfulness and tenderness, yet she was intelligent and smart. Between her eyebrows was a naturally changing dragon seal, which resonated with the ancestral energy of heaven and earth around her, so that even the netherworld wind that symbolized decline was gradually transformed into a gentle breeze.

There was a faint melody coming from the gentle breeze, like the sound of a phoenix singing in the distance, clear, crisp and beautiful.

When Zhao Qinxin heard Zhou Tieyi's voice, she felt a little relieved. Having inherited the Tianyinqin, she naturally also gained all kinds of wonderful and incredible magical powers, including judging a person by his voice.

As for Zhou Tieyi's facial features and abilities, she naturally did not have to worry about whether he was a good match for her, but she was worried that as the most mysterious ninth god of ancient times, he might be too scheming and unpredictable.

But from the voice just now, she felt that it was consistent with the 'panda' she had met before, full of knowledge and wisdom, but not looking 'old-fashioned', but full of vitality, just like a real young person.

Looking at Zhou Tieyi's appearance at the age of seventeen, Zhao Qinxin vaguely guessed that even though he was extremely old, his mind was still mainly based on "this life". In the past, he only brought him knowledge, wisdom and strength. It was as if he had completed a perfect reincarnation and inherited all the knowledge, wisdom and strength to this life.

"You are the mediator at the center, so it is inevitable that you will be delayed by some trivial matters."

Zhao Qinxin didn't care about Zhou Tieyi's lateness. Her father was often late for appointments with her, and she had gotten used to it.

Zhou Tieyi was becoming more and more satisfied with Zhao Qinxin in his heart. He thought that Zhao Qinxin would not cause any trouble. This was how he viewed her.

Political marriage is essentially an exchange of interests, and the best thing is not to cause any trouble.

"No need to use honorifics. We can start by being friends. You can just call me Tieyi. This is my brother, Zhou Tiege."

Zhou Tieyi habitually spoke in the tone of a blind date in his previous life.

Zhao Qin felt embarrassed in her heart. As friends, how could a girl call a boy by his first name without his surname when they first met? But since they were already engaged, it didn't seem like there was any big problem with calling him that.

Zhao Qinxin said shyly, "Iron... clothes."

Then he quickly saluted Zhou Tiege, "Hello, brother."

When Zhou Tieyi heard Zhao Qinxin's shy tone, he suddenly realized that calling her that was basically like calling her husband "husband" in front of her family. In this era, women would not even call their husbands by their names in front of outsiders because it would seem frivolous.

Damn it, blind dates really do make people short-circuit, Zhou Tieyi complained in his heart.

Zhou Tiege laughed loudly, patted Zhou Tieyi on the back, and then said to Zhao Qinxin, "Sister-in-law, my brother has been a playful person since he was young. I hope you will bear with me in the future."

After that, he took out a brocade box, which contained a phoenix bracelet made of Kun steel. "This phoenix bracelet was used by my mother to protect the Dao in the past. She said it is no longer useful now, so she asked me to give it to my younger sister-in-law as a gift."

This represented the Zhou family's acceptance of Zhao Qinxin as their daughter-in-law, and it was also an item that Zhou's mother used to carry with her, so it had great symbolic meaning. Zhao Qinxin quickly took it and began to express her gratitude.

If this continues, it will really turn into a blind date, Zhou Tieyi thought to himself, and interrupted, "By the way, where are the coordinates of Fang Yinting?"

Back to business, Zhao Qinxin took out a compass and a bone whistle from the Qiankun bag on her waist. After the whistle sounded, the sound of horses flying through the air was heard from the thick fog around her. A moment later, an eight-horse carriage appeared. Each of the horses looked like they were cast in gold. Although they looked vivid, they were not living creatures.

Behind the steed, there was a carriage that looked like a canopy. Above the canopy, there were rows of stars and auspicious colors hanging down, which turned into immortal flowers and evergreen trees. Wherever the carriage passed, death turned to life, green grass grew, and colorful butterflies fluttered, as if the gloomy underworld had come from the night to the dawn, full of vitality.

The carriage that Zhou Tieyi made himself was already extremely luxurious, but it still pales in comparison to the carriage in front of him.

"Is this the Qing Emperor's carriage?"

Zhao Qinxin nodded, "There is the power of the saint remaining in the Yin Court, and time and space are shattered, so the clan specially mobilized this carriage."

As expected, they are descendants of the Green Emperor, Zhou Tiege sighed in his heart when he saw this carriage.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

The third-grade Kungang Phoenix Bracelet that my mother asked me to pass on was considered an heirloom even among aristocratic families, but in front of the descendants of the Qing Emperor, it could only be called a gift.

Zhou Tieyi took a look at the carriage and estimated that the carriage's magical power was comparable to that of the second grade, but it had not yet reached the level of the first grade. He also had an intuitive understanding of the Qing Emperor's background.

After getting on the carriage, Zhao Qinxin used the compass to locate the position. A blue sky appeared across the sky, and in just a moment, they had traveled a thousand miles.

As they walked, Zhao Qinxin explained, "During the great battle, the Yin Court was carried down by the power of the saint, interrupting a major Yellow Spring tributary. Practitioners below the third rank cannot explore it at all, and third rank practitioners are also likely to get lost. Only second rank practitioners can enter and exit safely by relying on known routes. If second rank practitioners do not know the route, they may get lost for a long time and never enter the gate. That is why the fragments of Yin Court have been able to exist for so long."

Following Zhao Qinxin's explanation, the Zhou Tieyi brothers had already seen it. They saw the Yellow Spring winding above the vast Netherworld. Suddenly, there was a piece of land in front of them that seemed to have sunk. It was nearly a hundred miles wide. The turbid Yellow Spring rushed down and surged towards the invisible abyss. Thunderous roars continued to come from it. With such a chasm, even practitioners would be daunted.

However, the Qing Emperor's carriage did not care and pulled the sky down. The boundless sky shrank to form a stable world that wrapped around the carriage. Outside of this world, space cracks appeared and disappeared. Each crack was the sharpest sword in the world. The power gushing from it turned into a swirling thunderstorm. And this was not all the dangers. The Yellow Spring Waterfall falling from the sky symbolized the flushing of death. With every drop of turbid Yellow Spring water that washed down, even the evergreen trees in the space formed by the Qing Emperor's carriage began to wither. Fortunately, the vitality was endless and quickly made up for the loss.

With the guidance of the compass, except for some turbulence at the beginning of the fall, soon as Zhao Qinxin said, the stable route, the space-time cracks gradually decreased, and the thunderstorm weakened.

Zhou Tieyi suddenly thought of a question, "How do the dangers of the Blood Sea and Thunder Pond compare to this place?"

Zhao Qinxin looked at Zhou Tieyi strangely. As one of the Nine Ancient Gods, Zhou Tieyi should know the situation in those places better than herself.

"Perhaps because he has not regained the holy throne, he has not completely regained his memories of his past life?"

Zhao Qinxin guessed in her heart and explained to Zhou Tieyi, "The entire Great Summer Land is actually completely surrounded by the place where the Eight Ancient Gods fell. In fact, if we talk about danger, it is almost the same as this place. The only difference is that the core area involves the power of the saints. Even if it is right in front of us, we cannot touch or explore it. The biggest difference is the coverage area. The place where the gods, the Five Emperors, and the saints fell has completely broken apart in time and space, so it covers a size of thousands or tens of thousands of miles, which completely isolates our world from the wider world outside."

"Of course, this is what I know. I guess if it's a first-class peerless master, if he has a saint's treasure or a peerless artifact, he should be able to break through the blockade and see the outside world. However, they don't seem to have left any records of the outside world..."

Zhou Tieyi nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Because I'm afraid of disturbing people's hearts."

Zhao Qinxin looked at Zhou Tieyi curiously.

Zhou Tieyi smiled and said, "Isn't this easy to guess? According to the measurements of Mohism and Gongshu, the planet we are on is very large. We only know 6% of the world, and the remaining 94% is vast land. How many believers do you think Shinto has in these lands? If the blockade of the Eight Ancient Gods is broken, how should we deal with the 94% of the land with only 6%?"

Zhou Tieyi's guess was too shocking, but in the past, the world's Shinto was in decline, and those peerless masters kept silent, so everyone in this safe world had never considered it. It was not that they suppressed Shinto, but that Shinto surrounded them.

If someone else said this, Zhao Qinxin would still be skeptical, but when Zhou Tieyi, as the ninth god, said this, she lost her composure for a moment.

"But the decline of Shinto and the rise of humanity is destiny!"

Zhao Qinxin thought for a moment and asked.

Zhou Tieyi sighed, "That was destiny at that time. The Three Saints and Five Emperors killed nine saints in eight places. The human race prospered, and the divine way declined. Destiny had already been fulfilled. The eight saints took the opportunity to make a plan, and used their own deaths to enclose the human race in a smaller world. Since the wider divine way outside could decline, it could naturally revive. More than two thousand years have passed since then. The human way has experienced several dynasties, and the divine way outside will naturally revive gradually. In the absence of saints on both sides, it is natural that quantity will win."

Zhao Qinxin's good mood today was stunned by this sudden secret of heaven and earth. She whispered, "What you said is just a possibility. Maybe the days of the prosperity of humanity have continued to this day?"

Zhou Tieyi put his hands behind his back and looked at the thunder outside, "Don't I know the number of days I set back then? Although I won a round against them early on, they didn't lose all the games either."
