My monster derivative skills are the orthodox ones

Chapter 27: A Great Thing That Benefits the Country and the People
It's finally my turn.

Wei Mingze sat up straight subconsciously.

Previously, Li Ye had taken it upon himself to ask the official to offer some football lottery during the game, which made him feel that this young man was quite ungrateful.

Even if he really has the skills of a master, I still plan to give him a good beating.

What's wrong with the Grandmaster? The imperial court also has Grandmasters. Don't the Grandmasters of the Red Flame Sect and the Tiandao League behave themselves?

If you break the rules, even a master will be attacked by everyone.

Moreover, when they arrived at the reception room, Li Ye actually left him aside and went to entertain Gongsun Jie first, which made him even more angry.

After all, he is a provincial governor. Isn't his status higher than that of the leader of a sect?
At that time, he had already made up his mind to teach Li Ye a lesson.

But Li Ye and Gongsun Jie's topic gradually deviated and suddenly turned to spiritual power, cultivation, and advanced civilization. Wei Mingze was confused by those mysterious things, but everyone in the hall was still acting very serious.

If Wei Mingze hadn't known that Gongsun Jie couldn't possibly be involved with Li Ye and Shi Xiang, he would have thought that these people had set up a trap to trap him.

To put it another way, if Gongsun Jie really risked his face to cooperate with Li Ye in this drama, there would be something bigger going on. A new suspected master appeared, the Xuanguang Sect and the Chiyan Sect joined forces, and there was also the Qingcheng Sect, which was also one of the three sects and five schools...

These sects that were usually at odds with each other, or even hostile to each other, suddenly got mixed up. Just thinking about it, it was not something that he, as the prefect, could handle. If he got it wrong, the whole world would be in turmoil...

Therefore, Wei Mingze did not dare to make trouble anymore, and took over the conversation, laughing: "I don't understand what you said. Master Li, if you want me to do something, at least let me know what you are doing!"

"Master Wei, I am not from this world. I come from a higher world, the Galactic Federation. Due to an accident, I fell into your world. To explain it in a way you can understand, I was once a god in heaven, but was banished and my magic power was sealed and sent to the mortal world." Li Ye smiled and looked at Wei Mingze and said, "Everything I do now is just to leave my own Taoist tradition in the mortal world, and by the way, restore my magic power and return to the fairyland."

absurd!

Wei Mingze snorted secretly and asked with a smile: "Since Sect Leader Li is from the fairyland, can you show me some fairy arts to broaden my horizons?"

Li Ye shook his head and said, "Sir Wei, the immortals' talk is just a metaphor. I am just a person from a higher civilization. The so-called immortal arts do exist, but they require more advanced equipment to realize them..."

"Master Wei, I can prove that everything Master Li said is true." Gongsun Jie has become a loyal supporter of Li Ye. Seeing Wei Mingze questioning his guide, his face immediately darkened. "I am the head of Xuanguang Sect. Master Wei, do you still doubt my character?"

"We can also testify." Senior Zhong Wenhao and his sister said in unison.

Physical changes cannot be faked, and they can't find any explanation except magic.

Zhu Zhirou's eyes were already shining as she looked at Li Ye, and she was even thinking about changing her allegiance and becoming Li Ye's disciple.

Wei Mingze frowned and looked at the people in the reception room, wondering about the truthfulness of what Li Ye said.

Deep down in his heart, he didn't want to believe in the existence of any advanced civilization, but what was happening before his eyes was so out of tune with the secular world that he couldn't even find a suitable reason.

Li Ye saw Wei Mingze's dilemma and said with a smile, "If Lord Wei really doesn't believe me, why not report my case to the emperor and let him make the decision? How about that?"

NMB!

You’re cheating me.

Wei Mingze glanced at Li Ye and felt a surge of anger for no reason.

Without any substantial evidence, he reported such a ridiculous thing. Will he still be able to keep his official position?
But he couldn't not report it. If he let the matter get out of hand, he would lose his job...

For a moment, Wei Mingze was in a dilemma.

"Master Wei, you don't believe in Li's identity!" Li Ye smiled and shook his head, saying, "Then let's just put aside the so-called identity and talk about interests! Li's identity is not important in this matter."

"Benefits?" Wei Mingze was stunned.

"Do you remember what I said about football betting?" Li Ye said.

"It's just a gambling house." Wei Mingze snorted and said.

"Is the gambling house profitable?" Li Ye asked.

"Of course." Wei Mingze said. He held an important position and naturally knew a lot of inside information. The secret businesses of many princes and nobles were nothing more than gambling houses and brothels. These were the most money-making industries with huge profits without any investment.

"The dealer is always the one who makes the most money in a gambling house. Why can't the Chu Kingdom be the dealer?" Li Ye said with a smile. "Nonsense, a gambling house is not worthy of being on the stage, how can the court..." Wei Mingze's face turned black and he scolded immediately.

"Private gambling houses are indeed not worthy of public display, but it is different when they are run by the imperial court," Li Ye said. "The wealth seized by private gambling houses goes into private pockets. If they are run in the name of the imperial court, the money collected can be used to provide disaster relief, help the needy, and help the poor.

It can fill the national treasury, take from the people and use it for the people, and solve many urgent problems of the country. Lord Wei has a narrow vision. "

“……”Wei Mingze frowned.

"Li has even thought of a name for it, it's called Charity Football Lottery." Li Ye smiled, "The court sets the price and endorses it, so anyone who buys the lottery doesn't have to worry about the gambling house refusing to pay after winning. Even if you lose money, you can just consider it as a contribution to the public good of the country, which is a good deed.

Lord Wei should have seen the enthusiasm of the people today. There is a lot of potential for this matter!"

"But..." Wei Mingze wanted to say something.

Before he could finish his words, Li Ye interrupted him: "Sir Wei, Chu's financial situation is not very good. Sir Wei, don't you really want to make some further moves?"

“……”Wei Mingze was stunned.

Li Ye winked at Shi Xiang, who respectfully handed him a booklet.

Li Ye motioned him to pass it to Wei Mingze.

Wei Mingze took it and looked at the booklet. There were a few words written on the cover: "Football Lottery Issuance Details."

He opened it subconsciously, and after reading a few lines, he was immersed in it. He turned page after page, and the more he read, the more excited he became.

Football betting involves economics, which is difficult to explain in a short time, so Li Ye simply compiled it into a booklet, elaborating in detail how it operates and the profit model.

He didn't even have to think too much about this kind of thing, he could just copy it.

Although Gongsun Jie was curious about the contents of the booklet, he was more focused on cultivating his spiritual power. If he didn't want to learn more inside information from Li Ye, he would have wanted to fly back to Xuanguang Sect immediately and rebuild his club.

About a quarter of an hour.

Wei Mingze finally finished reading the entire publication details. He closed the booklet with a look of reluctance on his face. When he looked at Li Ye again, his expression was quite complicated. After a long while, he sighed: "Mr. Li is a great talent. This is a policy that benefits the country and the people!"

"Can you do it?" Li Ye asked.

"It can be done." Wei Mingze said, "But if we want to make this happen, we still need to rely on the league. However, the league involves many martial arts sects. Is Sect Leader Li really sure that he can make those martial arts sects abide by the rules?"

"Lord Wei, looking at the look on Master Gongsun's face, don't you understand?" Li Ye smiled and pointed at Gongsun Jie.

"Does Mr. Li really come from an advanced civilization?" Wei Mingze brought the topic back.

"Is this important?" Li Ye pointed at the booklet in his hand and asked.

“……”Wei Mingze frowned.

"The martial arts world and the imperial court are in conflict with each other. Your Majesty must have been troubled by these martial arts sects for a long time!" Li Ye smiled, "Now, a troublemaker has appeared in the martial arts world. If we use it well, it will be an opportunity!"

Wei Mingze was shocked and suddenly looked up at Li Ye, then at Gongsun Jie and others.

Gongsun Jie snorted.

"You don't need to look at him, because his mind is already on spiritual cultivation, and he doesn't care about the affairs of the martial arts world anymore." Li Ye smiled and glanced at Gongsun Jie, saying, "As long as the club stays, the disbandment of Xuanguang Sect will not be a problem."

"Mr. Li is right." Gongsun Jie quickly put on a smile.

"Does it really have spiritual power?" Wei Mingze asked.

"Of course there are. Lord Wei, let's take a step back. In the future, everyone in the martial arts world will practice cultivation. When Li's power is fully restored, he will take away all the successful practitioners. This can be regarded as solving a major problem for the court."

Li Ye smiled and said, "Sir Wei, the things involved here are complicated and you can't make the decision. Li suggests that your best course of action is to report what happened in Weining City together with this football lottery handbook. If the current saint is wise, he will naturally send someone to contact me."
