Nine Pins Immortal Road

Chapter 1160
Liang's father, Liang Xueyan, and his aunt, Liang Xuemiao, left Wudu and returned to Yangzhou. Apart from the members of the Wang family, there were also a group of loyal juniors from the Liang family.

Every few years, the Liang family studies will organize a group of young children of the family to go to Liangyuan Township, Ludong County, Yangzhou, and even take the family promotion path again, from Liangyuan Township to Ludong County, to Xinhai County, and then to Wuzhou , This is not only for ancestor worship, but also for the new generation of the family to understand the difficulties of the ancestors in starting a business, cherish the honor and achievements of the family today, and be able to work harder in practice.

But this time, when his father and aunt went back to their hometown to worship their ancestors, the Liang family naturally took the opportunity to send a group of family children back to their hometowns, both to worship their ancestors and to learn.

Instead of taking the East China Sea, the route of crossing Zhouzhou, Jiaozhou, Guangzhou, and finally Yangzhou by flying boat is also a good trip and growth for the new generation of the family.

In Wuzhou, the hustle and bustle of Liang Xiangbin's Nascent Soul Banquet has gradually subsided.

The Yuanying Zhenjuns of the Liang family have their own arrangements. Liang Ruiqin continues to perfect the formation and restraint of the underground fire sea. The third-level Baolian cultivated by Liang Ruijian has reached a critical moment. Liang Xiangbin took the famous stab given by Yang Xiu'e and started to set off Go to Xianchao Tianjing to prepare for entering the Xianchao Central Household Department.

However, Liang Xiangbin did not go directly to Xianchao Tianjing, but planned to go all the way north, and after traveling through various states, he arrived in Tianjing.

When he practiced and practiced with Liang Zhaojun in Tianjing, he met many fellow Taoists, and even formed a so-called "Splendid Association", many of whom were from the noble families of the various prefectures of the Xian Dynasty.

Liang Xiangbin is going to go all the way north to travel and visit these fellow Taoists.

Those who made friends with him at the beginning were basically well-matched, and they were from some of the top counties in various states.

Now that the Liang family has advanced to the aristocratic family, and he himself has successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, Liang Xiangbin is going to recruit some helpers from among these fellow Taoists, and go to Tianjing with him, not only to win the relationship, but also to build up momentum for himself , Improve prestige.

After all, even with the support of the Liang family's powerful position and the help of the Yang family, it should be no problem for Liang Xiangbin to successfully enter the household department.

However, also in the household department, different official positions, rights, prestige, interests, etc. are all different.

Liang Xiangbin naturally wanted a higher and better start.

This is because you can't completely rely on others to help you. You also need to make sufficient preparations, win over relationships and connections, gather more prestige and supporters, and so on.

Liang Xiangbin may not have much talent in fighting and killing, but he may still have some talent in communication and being an official.

Naturally, Liang Zhaohuang and the Liang family have no objection to these plans proposed by him, and they will give them as much support as possible.

He even arranged for some family members, as well as monks from the peripheral forces of the family, to follow him, to build up his momentum and reputation.

As for support such as spirit stones and resources, there are also a lot of support. The acquisition of contacts, the improvement of reputation, etc., all of which cost a lot of wealth and resources.

Fortunately, the Liang family's resources and wealth are still sufficient, which can fully support their pursuit of officialdom.

Liang Zhaohuang, on the other hand, temporarily turned his attention to Wudu's upcoming first taxation.

Wuzhou has been established for a long time, and the 60-year tax exemption promised at the beginning has been fulfilled. Now the counties, counties, and even towns in Wuzhou are about to start taxing for the first time.

This time is undoubtedly crucial, and only after a good start can the tax collection proceed normally in the future.

If there is a problem with the first taxation, then there will only be more and more problems in the subsequent taxation, and even collapse in the end.

And a state's taxation is not only a symbol of rights for a state's aristocratic family, but also an extremely important interest relationship. Together with the resources, spiritual materials, treasures, etc. in a state, it supports more than half of a state's aristocratic family. Wealth and heritage.

Although the Liang family has no shortage of resources and wealth, it is only temporary. As the Liang family continues to inherit, the population continues to increase, and there are more and more high-level monks, the wealth and resources to be consumed will also continue to increase.

Always relying on the resources and treasures in Wudu, there are always times when it is difficult to support.

At this time, the tax revenue in Wu du is undoubtedly another extremely important financial support.

Naturally, Liang Zhaohuang attached great importance to this and did not want the slightest problem to arise.

Therefore, before the start of the tax collection, Liang Zhaohuang directly ordered that the governors of all counties in Wuzhou be brought to Wuzhou City, and a special regular meeting was held to focus on the taxation.

The taxes of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, except for some specially stipulated tributes, were basically collected in the form of spirit stones.

This is not only for the convenience of taxation, but also for the prosperity of the market.

Therefore, usually in the months before and after the start of taxation, there will be a large number of transactions among states, counties and counties, poor families, county tycoons, and county lords will sell a large amount of resources and products produced by the family in exchange for spirit stones to complete payment of taxes.

And usually at this time, it is also the time when some caravan organizations inside and outside the Xian Dynasty come one after another, seizing the opportunity to collect resources, special products, and treasures in the counties and counties of the states.

Naturally, this is also the time when some robbery cultivators, demon cultivators, and robber cultivators take the opportunity to make trouble and make a fortune.

All need to be taken seriously and beware.

Especially not long ago, there were demon cultivators, monsters, and even demon kings who appeared and attacked the Chiyan Plain. It is undoubtedly necessary to ensure safety to prevent accidents.

Liang Zhaohuang summoned the governors of each county to the State Shepherd's Mansion and held a special regular meeting. He first asked about the situation in each county, whether there was any confusion, accidents, and the development of each county and county.

And the reports from the county guards are all safe and sound, and the counties and counties are peaceful, without any waves, without any enemies, accidents, chaos, etc.

Not even the slightest sign of monsters or magic cultivators was found.

It was as if those monsters, demon cultivators, and even demon kings who suddenly appeared and attacked the Chiyan Plain all descended out of thin air.

This undoubtedly made Liang Zhaohuang feel uneasy.

Therefore, after listening to the reports from the county magistrates, he decided on two things on the spot.

One is that each county submits the "Fish Scale Atlas" in the county, and counts the land and population in each county.

The second is that he will conduct the first official tour of Wuzhou's counties.

In Wuzhou Lidingyi Jiazi, Liang Zhaohuang, as the state herdsman, has not yet carried out a special and formal tour of the counties.

On the one hand, it is because Wuzhou developed from a barren land of humanity. In the first 60 years, all parts of Wuzhou were sparsely populated, and all counties and counties were actively developing humanity.

Liang Zhaohuang's official parade was neither necessary nor unavoidable to disturb the local area, so it has never been carried out.

On the other hand, Liang Zhaohuang often used the 'Kunpeng Faxiang' to tour the counties and counties of Wuzhou to check the situation.

With the speed of 'Kunpeng Faxiang', it doesn't take long to tour the entire Wuzhou, and if any problems are found, they can be solved immediately, saving Liang Zhaohuang a lot of time.

However, this is a lot of formal inspections after all.

Now, taking advantage of Wuzhou's first tax collection, Liang Zhaohuang decided to formally conduct a state-wide inspection. This is not only to promote the prestige and authority of the Liang family as a Wuzhou family, but also to ensure the safety of various places and ensure the first tax collection in Wuzhou. It went smoothly and normally.

"Follow your orders!"

"Your Majesty, please wait for the State Shepherd to make an inspection!"

The governors of the eleven counties in Wuzhou were basically supported by the Liang family, or they were supported by forces such as Yang, Liu, Xie, and the King of the East Sea, but none of them dared to compete with the Liang family.

Therefore, for Liang Zhaohuang's decision, the governors of all counties respectfully responded in unison.

After the regular meeting was over, the sheriffs of the eleven counties returned to the counties and families, and began to prepare for the tax collection and Liang Zhaohuang's inspection.

At this time, Liang Zhongxu, one of the sons of the family who handled all kinds of small affairs for Liang Zhaohuang, brought over a dozen treasures and treasures.

"Patriarch, these are sent by the county guards."

Liang Zhongxu smiled and saluted Liang Zhaohuang.

Just like when Liang Zhaohuang served as county magistrate and state shepherd, he often had to give gifts to the officials.

At this time, as the governor of the state, he would also send all kinds of treasures and offerings during festivals, every regular meeting, or when the governors of the following counties came to visit.

Liang Zhaohuang saw at a glance that most of the so-called treasures and treasures were only third-tier items, and a few items of fourth-tier items were also ordinary items in the fourth-tier category, which were not of much practical use to him.

He nodded with a chuckle, and ordered: "Take it into my private treasury."

As a former 'gift giver', Liang Zhaohuang naturally understood the thoughts of these county guards.

As for his private treasury has long been separated from the family treasury, it is for the sake of distinction between public and private. It is impossible for him to use his own private treasury to support the family treasury all the time. This is not only for himself, but also for the sake of other children in the clan.

After all, it is impossible for him to ask every child of the family to follow his example of 'private treasury for public use', that will only mess up the family management, and it is not conducive to the growth and struggle of the family children.

As for the support for the family and the children of the family, he can use the treasures in his private treasury to reward them.

Four months passed in a blink of an eye, and news came from his father Liang Xueyan and his aunt Liang Xuemiao that they had returned to Ludong County, Yangzhou. Naturally, they were warmly welcomed by the noble Yang family and the county Hao family.

Father Liang Xueyan, aunt Liang Xuemiao and the others can be regarded as returning home this time.

Now a grand ancestor worship event is about to be held, not only to comfort their parents and brothers, but also to comfort their own past.

And the "Fish Scale Atlas" of each county in Wuzhou has also been handed over to the State Shepherd's Mansion. Liang Zhaohuang checked the "Fish Scale Atlas" of each county, and he had some concerns about the current population, land development, and humanitarian development in Wuzhou. for a more detailed understanding.

Of course, he knew that the "Fish Scale Atlas" submitted by the counties must have been "refined", and there must be some concealment and deletion.

But as long as it is not too much, Liang Zhaohuang will not deliberately pick problems.

This is the tacit understanding of the states, counties, aristocratic families, and prefects in the Xian Dynasty.

After all the preparations were made, Liang Zhaohuang's guard of honor as the shepherd of Wuzhou set off from Wuzhou City and began to formally inspect the counties of Wuzhou.

At the beginning, Yingzhou Mu and Xiezhou Mu inspected Yingzhou on a warship of thousands of feet, with many followers and a great momentum.

But now, Liang Zhaohuang was patrolling Wuzhou. Although the Liang family also had a thousand-foot warship, it was a pity that Wuzhou was not in the sea, and the warship could not sail to every county in Wuzhou. Naturally, it could not be used as his ship to patrol the counties.

In fact, when he was patrolling the various counties of Wuzhou at this time, the best ship should be Qianzhang Yunzhou.

It is a pity that the Liang family does not have a boat of thousands of feet. Liang Zhaohuang can only take a flying boat this time, plus entourage, guard of honor, etc. He has ten flying boats this time. The scale and so on are completely incomparable.

However, Liang Zhaohuang believes that his mood, mentality, and confidence in patrolling at this time are definitely far superior to those of Xie Zhoumu back then.

After all, the current strength of the Liang family, as well as their control over Wu du, far surpassed that of the Xie family and the Xie family's control over Yingzhou.

As for Liang Zhaohuang's tour this time, he chose the route first along the Liuli River, inspecting the three counties along the Liuli River, and then patrolling from north to south, and from east to west.

Therefore, the first county he inspected was Yuhu County, which was adjacent to the radiating range of Wuzhou City and along the Liuli River.

This county is famous for its many jade veins and lakes, so it was directly named Yuhu County when the tripod was named.

The sheriff of Yuhu County is the Wang family of Sipin County, the Hu family. He originally came from a medium-sized sect in the East China Sea. He came to vote when the Liang family went south to open up Xinzhou. For his military exploits, after the establishment of a tripod in Wuzhou, he will reward the nobles of the sixth-rank county according to his merits.

And the Hu family was able to rise from Liupin County Wang to Sipin County Wangmen after the two operations of the "Lingding Secret Realm" in Yuhu County in the mere 60 years, and to hold the position of Yuhu County Sheriff. The Liang family supported them behind the scenes, and the Hu family also completely turned to the Liang family, and some women from the Hu family even married into the Liang family.

In this Yuhu County, apart from the county guard Hu's family, Liang Zhaohuang and Liang's family also pay special attention to another family, which is the Yuan family of Yuan Zhenjun's descendant "Water Ape" who was born in the "Fa Xiangzong" and died here.

At the beginning, Long Zhenjun of Fa Xiangzong came forward in person, entrusted Yuan Zhenjun who fell in the Liang family's operation to open up Wuzhou, and requested that Yuan Zhenjun's "descendants" be placed in this Yuhu County, the place where Yuan Zhenjun fell.

Although Liang Zhaohuang promised to arrange the Yuan family here, he has always been hesitant about the real purpose and thinking of the Yuan family or Xiangzong.

Therefore, in these years, the county guard Hu's family has always obeyed his orders, and often kept an eye on the 'water ape' Yuan's family to see what happened to them.

It's just that in so many years, nothing has been discovered.

On the contrary, the 'Water Ape' Yuan family also joined Yuhu County as the head of the sixth-rank county at the beginning, and they had no rights or conspicuous places in the county. , The Yuan family has also been promoted to the Wang family of Wupin County, and sat on the position of Yuhu County Captain.

It seems that he really focused on developing in Xianchao and Wudu.

Perhaps, this is also an anomaly?
