Chapter 719 Die!
With the secret pupil released, the light in Zhou Xu's vision suddenly dimmed a lot.
But even so, each of them still contains a touch of fluorescence, which can be seen with the naked eye only if you look closely.
At this moment, I saw the things in the treasure box, some of which were metal fragments, some of which were suspected to be fragments of stone tablets, broken ceramic pieces, etc.
Needless to say, judging from the brightness of the light, each of these probably has mantra characters on it.
In addition to the compatibility between mantra and mantra, there is also a compatibility between mantra and people.
If this mantra does not fit with you, you will not be able to absorb it.
Or it may fit, but the fit is not high. Then when you use it, the consumption will be greater than normal.
Before Zhou Xu was summoned, the former leader of their tribe was not very compatible with the 'Eye of Insight', so it was too expensive to use.
These mantras locked in the iron box by Yan Sheng are undoubtedly mantras that are incompatible with him and cannot be absorbed by him.
However, Zhou Xu himself didn't feel anything about this problem.
I don’t know if the talent of the ‘Evolutionary Leader’ is at work, making him extremely adaptable. So far, no mantra has ever been repulsive to him.
Now Zhou Xu naturally had nothing to be polite about. He directly reached into the treasure box, mobilized the mantras in his body, and guided those mantras to quickly merge into his body.
Listening to the series of system prompts in his mind, the corners of Zhou Xu's mouth curled up slightly.
The acquisition of more mantra characters means that he has gained more possibilities in the use of mantras.
Close your eyes and feel how the mantra characters in his body stick together after this new group of people joins.
As a result, I found that these mantra characters are now like a group of idiots, wandering around in their own mental space, and they feel that they have no good relationship with anyone.
In this regard, Zhou Xu is not disappointed. This time he can obtain the 'Lightning Attack' and the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets', which is already a huge profit.
At the same time, these mantra characters don’t match anyone now, and that doesn’t mean they will be the same in the future. As the number of mantra characters in his body increases, these mantra characters will come in handy sooner or later.
For example, the 'secret' mantra that was obtained a long time ago has now become an important puzzle piece that forms the 'Eye of the Secret'?
[When things here are settled, go back and find an opportunity to study these newly acquired mantras. 】
Among the newly acquired mantras, the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets' has been roughly figured out, but he still has some ideas in his mind and has not had time to test it.
"By the way, are you going to move to the palace here or continue to live at my place?"
As a king, I have already captured Xianyang City and captured it. In the case of the palace, Zhou Xu should live directly in the palace.
However, because there were many people from the old dynasty under guard in the palace before, Zhou Xu moved into Jie Liancheng's mansion for safety reasons.
But now Zhou Xu's order has been issued to remove all the concubines, princes, and maids in the palace, completely empty the palace, and garrison it with their soldiers.
In this way, the previous worries will naturally disappear.
Faced with this problem at this moment, Zhou Xu made a decision after thinking about it for a while.
"I moved into the palace. There is a lot of space here, which is more convenient for me."
He also wanted to research and test the mantra. Xie Liancheng's mansion did not have this It was spacious and his five-year-old nephew was there at the same time, so it was inconvenient after all.
Xie Liancheng didn't think much about this and nodded directly to express his understanding.
At the same time, Li Bowen, who hurriedly left the General's Mansion, returned to his mansion as quickly as possible.
Entering the lobby of the mansion, the door behind him was immediately closed, and everyone in the hall quickly gathered around him.
"Master Li, how are you? What is the attitude of the great king of Zhou Dynasty?" At this moment, in the lobby of Li Mansion, there were officials of third rank or above from the old dynasty, including six ministers. Inside, everything is gathered here.
Obviously, just as Zhou Xu guessed, these officials from the old dynasty had already formed a group behind their backs and followed Li Bowen's lead.
At this moment, faced with repeated questioning from everyone, Li Bowen did not hold back and quickly told his experience this time, which naturally included Zhou Xu's desire to unify the currency.
"I have expressed my position in front of the King of Zhou Dynasty, and I am willing to spend all my wealth to support the implementation of this new policy!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the scene The officials of the old dynasty were suddenly in an uproar.
“Why is Mr. Li like this!”
"Yes, Mr. Li, can't we just replace the coins with silver taels? Even if we want to show our kindness to the king and donate part of it, why bother spending all our wealth?!"
This What he said at the time was undoubtedly supported by the vast majority of officials from the old dynasty.
However, not all the officials from the old dynasty present were fools, and someone soon pointed out a key point.
"There is no problem in exchanging silver taels for coins, but the problem is how much our salary is?"
As soon as this question is asked, it is not too big of a deal to clarify the words directly. There is a difference.
How many of these high-ranking officials only get that little salary?
This exchange is equivalent to showing off all their wealth.
This is enough to prove that none of them are clean.
When the time comes, not only will they be targeted, but their future may also be ruined.
After all, from the king's point of view, no one would be willing to reuse some guys with dirty hands and feet.
"Then we can just take part of it and exchange it for coins, and keep hiding the other silver. The worst we can do is mint silver coins ourselves!"
Li Bowen was so speechless when he heard this that he wanted to curse. In fact, he did. Couldn't hold it back.
“Idiot!”
Although he is the prime minister of the old dynasty, Li Bowen is still very intimidating among this group of old dynasty officials. Now that he is scolded, he is really No one dared to choke.
"The king of Zhou Dynasty has made it clear to me that he wants to fix the price of gold, silver and copper. Do you want to understand what this means? In other words, ten taels of silver will be equal to ten in the future. Two silver coins!”
"Make silver coins by yourself? How much does it cost? At the same time, how much hush money do you have to pay for such illegal things? To get someone to do this for you? After deducting these, the ten taels of silver will eventually become silver coins and fall into your hands. How much is left? "
"Besides, what's more important is that this is illegal! Do you understand? If you are caught, your family will be confiscated!"
< br>Li Bowen had already calculated this account in his mind when he was in the General's Mansion.
With the prices of gold, silver and copper being fixed, it can be said that privately minting coins by yourself is not cost-effective, and you will have to pay for the sealing fee alone.
Not to mention that privately minting coins is a capital crime for robbing a family and exterminating a clan!
From Li Bowen's perspective, instead of taking this risk, it would be better to donate all of his family wealth quickly. At least he can still leave a "sensible" evaluation, and his life will not be too sad in the future.
At this time, Li Bowen was able to persuade each of these colleagues from the old dynasty.
It's not because he has good intentions, but because after surrendering to the Zhou Dynasty, these colleagues from the old dynasty will become capital in his hands, thus establishing his status.
As for those fools who cannot be persuaded...
Die!
