The great dream of the heavens begins with Lin Pingzhi!

Chapter 64 Three years of governance, pig-killing operation!
The establishment of 80,000 soldiers in the three camps was quickly completed, and they began to teach internal skills in preparation for training them into elite soldiers.

But Chu Feng also found that military spending was skyrocketing and the pressure was gradually increasing.

Training soldiers costs money, especially training elite soldiers, the cost increases greatly!
Fortunately, at this time, the world's number one god of wealth, Wan Sanqian, came!
Chu Feng fulfilled his promise and granted the golden medal of immunity from death, which is the legendary red book and iron certificate!

Afterwards, he borrowed a large sum of money from Wan Sanqian.

Wan Sanqian was not angry about this, but very happy instead.

The emperor asked him to borrow money. This was a favor, more precious than how much money he made!
In fact, Chu Feng knew where the wealth of the Ming Dynasty lay: officials, aristocratic families, wealthy clans, and wealthy businessmen!
Especially the aristocratic families, wealthy clans and wealthy businessmen in the south.

Since the sea ban, they have become even richer, but it has brought even more serious disasters caused by Japanese pirates to the people in several coastal provinces!

There were very few real Japanese pirates, most of them were from the Ming Dynasty.

It would not have been difficult to wipe out the Japanese pirates, but the imperial court was corrupt and there were people inside who leaked information. How could they wipe out the Japanese pirates?

Moreover, the eunuchs were in power and demanded all kinds of benefits. There was a brave general who wiped out the Japanese pirates, but not only did he not receive any reward, he was dismissed from office!

In this situation, who would be willing to try their best to wipe out the Japanese pirates?

Chu Feng cannot be impatient in dealing with those aristocratic families because his power is not yet consolidated. Once he forces them to rebel, it will cause greater losses.

It is better to treat them like pigs and raise them for a while longer. That way they will be fatter when you slaughter them!
Once Chu Feng has trained the army, it will be time to slaughter the pigs!
But the issue of Japanese pirates must be dealt with!
Therefore, Chu Feng directly sent Cheng Shifei and a large number of Jinyiwei to deal with those eunuchs and military supervisors who were corrupt and accepted bribes.

Those who are seriously corrupt will be executed immediately and their property will be confiscated!

Those whose corruption was less serious would have to make up the money and be demoted one level.

Being so lenient is also because we don’t want to push them too hard, lest they go to extremes.

After all, there are few people in the officialdom who are not corrupt!

This way the imperial treasury can also recover some money!

Then we will lay off incompetent people in the army, select capable generals, and prepare to guard against Japanese pirates.

Another thing is to invite masters from the eight major sects to join the army to help, to prevent the Japanese pirates from sending masters to behead.

In addition to the issue of Japanese pirates, Chu Feng also took some improvement measures on the palace side.

The first step is to expand the Sunflower Inner Guards, and all members will practice the Sunflower Manual, with a planned number of 3000 people!
This internal guard is not in the same system as the East Factory and is directly under the jurisdiction of Chu Feng.

The lesson from Cao Zhengchun made him understand that the power of the East Factory cannot be too great!
The second is to cut down on some of the extravagant and wasteful spending in the imperial palace.

Increase revenue and reduce expenditure!

There are also expenses for the royal family. Originally, the royal family was paid per head, but some princes had nearly a hundred children. All the members of the royal family followed suit, which added a huge burden to the court.

Therefore, Chu Feng reformed this system. If there are more than 5 people, no more money will be given!
Moreover, disciples of the royal family can make a living on their own, but they cannot become officials!
As a disciple of a royal family, there are always some advantages, and it is not difficult to support yourself!

To be honest, governing a country is much more difficult than practicing martial arts. There are too many data and variables involved, and many things cannot be calculated by mathematics!

However, Chu Feng is also growing slowly and knows how to select good ministers to assist him, help him make plans, and share important responsibilities.

Zhuge Liang devoted his life to the country until his death, which is admirable, but he also did not know how to use people and should have delegated power.

Moreover, with many concubines accompanying him in the palace, Chu Feng lived a very comfortable life and did not feel that being an emperor was too tiring.

……

Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye. In the morning, in the Qianqing Palace, the autumn wind is bleak and the fallen leaves are flying.

Chu Feng slowly finished his training and opened his eyes.

After three years of practice, his cultivation had improved a lot, and 200 acupoints in his body of Qigong had been filled.

The Fiery Sun Body Tempering Technique of Qi and Blood Martial Arts has been upgraded from the ninth level of external energy to the tenth level of Hunyuan. The physical strength has been greatly improved again, the arm strength has reached 8500 pounds, and the thickness of the Fiery Sun energy has also been greatly improved!

Although the outer stage is mainly about improving the inner energy, it also strengthens the body. Therefore, the physical strength will continue to improve!

In addition, the six true meanings of the Hunyuan Seven Wonders have also been greatly improved, and the power of the Seven Wonders has greatly increased!

However, the biggest change is the imperial court!

After three years of meticulous governance, removing the rotten flesh, recuperating and reforming the military system, considerable results have been achieved.

First of all, the 80,000 elite soldiers in the three camps have been formed, and the lowest one has internal skills of the third level of the acquired realm or above.

The upper limit of martial arts in this world is much higher than that in the world of Xiaoao, so the speed of cultivation is also faster!
Moreover, they basically all have excellent swordsmanship, gunmanship, and archery skills!
The power, range, and stability of the Shenjiying's firearms have also been greatly improved. They are no longer just fire sticks!
The main reason is that Chu Feng has chopped off enough heads, so no one dares to cut corners or cheat!

The cavalry of the Three Thousand Battalion was finally no longer a waste with poor military discipline, but became a real elite cavalry!

In addition, there are a lot more deposits in the treasury.

Mainly because many officials were threatened with death by the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and had to give up most of their property to fill the holes!

Chu Feng is a very generous person. If he is not a bad official who has done many bad things, and if he has just embezzled money, he can continue to serve as an official as long as he makes up the money.

Because Chu Feng understood that the salaries of Ming Dynasty officials were too low, and if they were not greedy, they would definitely be poor!

Now that the elite soldiers have been trained and the treasury is full, it's time to start slaughtering pigs!

It's mainly the wealthy families and businessmen in the south. Many of them have grown so fat and bloated by stepping on the corpses of large numbers of people and sucking the blood of the country!
When the pigs are fat, they must be killed!

Otherwise, the country will be brought down!
Immediately, Chu Feng summoned the chief and deputy owners of Hulong Villa, Gui Hai Yidao and Shangguan Haitang, the governor of the East Factory Liu Jin, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard Cheng Shifei, the owner of the No. 1 Villa in the World Duan Tianya and others.

That’s right, Duan Tianya finally came out of seclusion. He couldn’t let his wife and children suffer with him!
Chu Feng arranged for him to be the owner of the No. 1 Manor in the World, and Jian Jingfeng to be the deputy owner, recruiting and training spies, who were mainly responsible for collecting intelligence.

Inside the Qianqing Palace, Liu Jin, Cheng Shifei, Shangguan Haitang, Gui Hai Yidao, and the others clasped their fists and said in unison, "Your Majesty!"

Chu Feng smiled and said, "No need to be polite. You should all know the intelligence I've asked you to investigate over the past three years. Haitang, summarize it and then assign respective targets to the East Factory, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Dragon Guard Villa, and the Number One Villa under Heaven. This time, half of the property you seized will be yours. Don't think it's too little. If the total value is tens of millions of taels, or even hundreds of millions of taels, the bonus of half will be extremely generous. Everyone can make a fortune, and it will be open and aboveboard! But if anyone secretly embezzles or conceals it, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Everyone clasped their fists and said in unison, "We will definitely live up to your Majesty's trust!"

Soon after, the East Factory, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Hulong Villa, and the No. 1 Villa in the World began to act quickly.

At the same time, Chu Feng also quietly sent 1 elite troops south, including 3000 Shenji Battalions!
In addition, he also sent 1 sunflower inner guards above the fifth level of the acquired realm to follow him.

Firstly, to secretly monitor the Dongchang, Jinyiwei and other forces to see if they are corrupt or concealing anything. Secondly, to prevent any experts from beheading the army.

If those aristocratic families want to rebel, Chu Feng welcomes them very much and will suppress them directly!

In addition, Chu Feng also contacted Gu Santong and asked him to follow secretly, so that he could protect Cheng Shifei and also provide a backup if anything happened.

With Gu Santong's peerless martial arts, even if these aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen have hidden some cards, they will die peacefully!
