I want to embrace the moon for nine days

Chapter 223: Alchemy of gold and silver with hard work, similar to the method of transforming gas

The sun rises higher and higher, and the sunshine becomes brighter and brighter.

The scenery in the suburbs is verdant, and inside the garden house, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

Those messy grass and broken flower branches gave off a more obvious fragrance.

The little bird with tawny feathers landed on the white-painted pointed wooden fence, tilting its head and looking curiously at the scene in front of it.

Most people were sitting on the ground, their faces full of anxiety.

The rich monk's bald head was oily from the sun, and his face was full of depression. The luxurious Taoist priest's bun was even more uncomfortable due to the sun. It was hot and itchy, but he didn't dare to scratch it.

Su Hanshan was sitting on the steps in front of the bungalow, with tea and some books beside him.

Taoist priests Shouguan and Fuxing were walking in and out of those bungalows, carrying account books, and dug out the most important summary part themselves and placed them next to Su Hanshan.

In the past years, the Songjiang prefecture would also collect the account books copied this year after gathering with the hosts of these temple opium dens, and check them afterwards.

The final conclusion will be that they will be re-registered and brought back to the prefect's Yamen, and these account books will just be stored in the garden house.

If machines are expensive, replace them with people.

Later, factory owners learned the lesson and forcibly deducted part of their wages as meal supplements to prepare meals to effectively supplement nutrition. Then they were stuck for about three years and fired these workers.

Take a textile factory as an example. The price of an old-fashioned hydraulic machine is one hundred and fifty taels of silver.

But since ancient times, practicing internal skills and cultivating the sense of qi requires a certain amount of talent and good environmental conditions. Only those who can develop pure skills are willing to work as workers.

The enlightened Taoist priest broke out in a cold sweat.

Regardless of the East or the West, the talented Chinese and foreigners have all invested in related research under the temptation of huge benefits that are visible to the naked eye and just a stone's throw away.

There are three major Dantians: the lower Dantian refines essence and transforms Qi, the middle Dantian refines blood and transforms Qi, and the upper Dantian refines spirit and transforms Qi.

If the master is expensive, replace it with new techniques and more people.

Soon, they developed a method to open the "Middle Dantian" first.

In fact, although other temple opium dens have not directly signed contracts with large factories like the enlightened Taoist priests, more than 90% of their opium sales targets are also related to factories.

What can relieve the pain?
The almighty smoke of course!

This man is indeed good at "business". According to the records in the account book, he has actually signed contracts with several large factories near Huatuo Temple.

Those large factories will take the initiative to guide laid-off workers to Hua Tuo Temple and collect some agency fees from him.

Of course, it is impossible to avoid hidden dangers by first opening the Dantian, extracting vitality from the blood, and working around the clock.

The first workers often die in the factory in droves after working for less than two years, causing some trouble to the factory owners.

The existence of martial arts can bring more possibilities to people in the world, both better and worse.

Therefore, even during the Jiaqing period, apart from Guangfu, important seaside towns like Songjiang Prefecture were still sparsely populated.

Compared with high-standard machines, the production efficiency and income-expense ratio achieved by these workers can achieve a greater profit level.

With all kinds of thoughts in mind, including the simple desire to save their wages and return home to buy land, and the desire to get ahead and return home in fine clothes, they devoted themselves to this first-class prosperous place.

"Look at their account books. They are much more organized than your Dongyue Temple's. Even the origins of customers are recorded conveniently."

The normal qi training method that starts from the lower Dantian requires sufficient talent, but the skills gained are not pure enough and contain a lot of miscellaneous qi.

On weekdays, we only eat, drink, and defecate in a shanty town not far from the factory. The hygiene is worrisome, but no one has the energy to care about it. It is natural that many people will lose their life due to such a waste of the body.

However, from Shunzhi to Kangxi years, the Aixinjueluo family implemented sea relocation orders several times. The fishing villages and wharves within fifty miles of the sea were completely destroyed. If anyone disobeyed, they would be massacred. They also learned from the precedents of the Ming Dynasty in everything. It is believed that the sea ban in the early Ming Dynasty was still not strong enough, resulting in future troubles.

Moreover, the life of this kind of machine is not long. If it is produced day and night, the wear and tear will be serious, and it needs to be repaired or replaced regularly.

But in the end, only one person can truly return home.

Zhongdantian has become the best choice. The skills gained are pure enough and more practical.

Even if you are invited to the factory, the price will certainly not be low. There are not many people who are suitable for it, but they have the confidence to raise prices.

Textile, woodworking, leather, ceramics, steel, shipbuilding and other types of factories, warehouses, import and export roads, dormitories and shanties, occupy almost all the land in the eastern half of Songjiang Prefecture.

They have developed medicated oil and medicated sand powder that are suitable for machines. After adding them to machine parts, as long as someone injects internal force, the power of the machine can be greatly increased and the service life can be greatly extended.

The subconscious spiritual function of the upper Dantian is too ethereal, so it is even more cumbersome to capture it and refine it into real inner energy.

However, even if such workers leave the factory, they will definitely be plagued by illness.

The price of a sixteen-horsepower steam machine is six hundred taels of silver, and if it is a thirty-horsepower steam-powered machine, the price rises to more than three thousand taels of silver.

In this way, workers will not die directly in the factory. After leaving the factory, if they are lucky and properly maintained like the Dingxianshui in Dongyue Temple, they can live for two or three more years.

Su Hanshan took the account book of Huatuo Temple, found the enlightened Taoist priest among the crowd, and took a second look.

Of course, the factory owners and the people behind them are not willing to stop at this step.

In recent years, all workers who enter the factory must participate in fifteen days of training on credit. Under the stimulation of golden needles and medicinal liquids, they use the first seven days to develop their first skills, and the last eight days, they become familiar with them. The operation of skills and the cooperation of machines.

But this is not enough.

Today's Songjiang Prefecture can support so many factories. In fact, about 70% of the manpower are young adults from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang, and Lianghe Qilu.

Songjiang Prefecture is a place where east-west trends meet and there are many factories.

However, after things like factories spread to the land of China, those high-level inheritances that were not only proficient in internal Qi training, but also proficient in external methods of combining medicine, immediately radiated new vitality.

Compared with other places and other industries, wages in Songjiang Prefecture's factories are indeed generous, but working twelve to sixteen hours a day is the norm.

With the savings I had earned in exchange for my life, I was tempted by the bliss of being free from illness and pain, and happy as if I were ascending to heaven, and threw myself into those temple opium dens on the day I never saw my family in my hometown.

"It's really interconnected, a perfect industrial chain."

Su Hanshan looked through the account books of these people.

"Originally, even if these workers are suffering from illness, after all they have opened up the Zhongdantian and have internal strength to use."

"Even if there are hundreds or thousands of people, they cannot threaten those upper-class people. If more than ten thousand people become active and their death is imminent, it will easily make those upper-class gentlemen feel insecure."

"The existence of heavy smoke will quickly disintegrate the vitality of these people, so that the Songjiang Mansion under your rule can continue to enjoy peace and stability."

Su Hanshan took a sip of tea and said to Ling Duxian with a smile, "It seems that the existence of Da Yan has been of great benefit to your Songjiang magistrate's office. Why don't you build an ancestral hall for Da Yan and enshrine him as a Buddha?" "

"How about we call him Namo Amitabha, the Great Buddha King of Poppy Bliss?" Ling Duxian lowered his eyebrows and said nothing.

"Why does it look like you're dead?"

Su Hanshan sighed, "It seems I haven't killed you yet, or rather, you can't wait to turn into corpses."

Ling Duxian had no choice but to say: "Before I took office, there was already such a vague operation method among all levels of Songjiang Mansion."

"I just stick to the rules and follow the rules, and I never add any additional influence."

He knelt and sat there. Although his body could not move, his eyelids were raised very quickly to check Su Hanshan's expression.

"To be honest, I have always felt sympathy for the plight of the workers, so I specially set up the prefect's office in the southwest and never dared to stay in the eastern half of the factory area."

Su Hanshan looked at him and said, "You are really compassionate. Isn't it because you think it's dirty?"

Ling Duxian wanted to say something else, but Su Hanshan interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Forget it, it's unwise of me to ask you to speak on this kind of issue. If I ask you to speak more, I might really be unable to bear it."

Su Hanshan rolled up the book, knocked it in the palm of his hand, and said to Ling Duxian and Taoist Shamen, "You two, recite the exercises for me, and memorize them at the same time."

The Taoist monk, who had been silent all this time, sneered.

"I have joined the Xiantian Sect. For decades, I have never fought any tough battles, endured any hardships, or enjoyed any blessings. Even if you kill me now, I will accept it calmly."

"You think that by capturing me alive, you can make me bow down to you and obey your orders. It's really unreasonable."

Su Hanshan nodded: "Then you die."

Before he finished speaking, he stood up suddenly and slapped the Taoist monk on the head with his palm.

Both Taoist Master Shamen and Ling Duxian had Su Hanshan's pure yang power penetrated their entire bodies, sealing many acupuncture points and making their limbs unable to move, like sculptures.

At this time, Taoist monk Shamen was hit with a palm on his head, which really looked like a hollow sculpture. The bones of his neck shrank downwards, and his whole body was several inches shorter, and he was trembling endlessly.

Many monks and Taoists around looked as if they were frightened birds, as silent as cicadas.

Su Hanshan's palm spread its five fingers apart and clasped it inward. When the Taoist monk was about to die, he said in a deep voice: "Recite your Kung Fu!"

These words were spoken like the sound of an evening bell, and the lingering sound, if it had any substance, reverberated and filled the entire garden, making people inexplicably feel that the sky was dimming a bit and their minds were dizzy.

The secret sound method in the Seven Wheels of Mahamudra was originally used in the world of martial arts, with the help of a huge roar of the Ice Buddha, which could make tens of thousands of people temporarily lose their minds.

Under normal circumstances, the Taoist monk could resist, but when he was about to die, his spirit was so weak that he had no energy left to resist. He stumbled and began to utter words.

Su Hanshan looked at Ling Duxian again.

Ling Duxian's heart trembled, and he recited: "The Dharma altar is ten thousand feet high, and the lotus peaks reflect the early morning sun. There are three princes in it, sitting silently and recuperating. There is no need for outsiders to seek wisdom, and the nest is the same. The appearance and deeds are subject to change, and Yuan Shu remains chaste. one."

"The purpose of the Dragon and Tiger Pill, the wonders of nature and nurture, have all been explained..."

This "San Tan Hai Hui Sutra" is really a hodgepodge of the White Lotus Sect. The opening chapter is obviously about Taoist methods, but as it goes on, it deviates to the point of Maitreya's next life.

Martial arts training is mixed in these poems and praises.

Su Hanshan had previously studied the inner text of the alchemy cauldron in Dongyue Temple and had some understanding of the martial arts system in this world.

Although he had not yet deciphered all the cryptic meanings of the "Three Tan Hai Hui Sutra", he had already figured out a lot of ideas while listening to the two men reciting it.

I recalled what I had obtained from Dongyue Temple, the method used in the factory to help workers develop the middle Dantian first, and then compared it with the truly top-notch exercises in the world.

After the two of them finished reciting it, Su Hanshan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"The jade liquid returns the elixir. The four words mentioned in the inner text of the elixir cauldron actually refer to two realms."

"The Jade Liquid Realm is comparable to the True Form Realm. In terms of inner energy alone, it is even more fully developed than the True Form Realm."

Part of the purity of the True Form Realm's power also relies on the strength of the body, which provides an environment similar to internal high pressure.

In this world of jade liquid, there is no need to temper the body, and there is no need for the body to bear such a heavy burden.

After developing the three dantians, they set out to cultivate the seven souls vitality.

Among the seven souls, the corpse dog represents the brain nerve regulation function. Fuya, digestion and excretion function.

Sparrow Yin, reproductive and survival instincts. Swallowing thieves, the body’s immune function. Non-toxic, maintains body temperature and body coordination.

Removes impurities and has metabolic functions. Smelly lungs, breathing and filtering functions.

This is an abstract and general summary of seven body functions, not clearly identifiable body parts.

But the martial arts in this world, after all three Dantians are developed, can actually achieve the level of "training seven souls to transform Qi".

Through the seven levels of sequential refining, it is blended into one's own original skill, so that one's own skill reaches a level that is extremely stable in the body and has a very low burden on the physical body. But once it is released to the outside, it can cause a violent reaction of the vitality of heaven and earth. degree.

No wonder in this world, all the superior martial arts are called alchemy.

Because the practice of internal strength is just like refining elixirs and boiling medicines, performing a proportional reaction.

Foreigners call practicing the true meaning of alchemy, and it means that we reach the same goal through different paths.

In recent decades, the rapid progress in machine fuel technology, that is, the way of outer elixir, has also stimulated the development of inner elixir and internal strength.

If the people who pioneered the "Working Dantian" method could still maintain that motivation, then it would not be impossible to develop methods to make up for the hidden dangers of workers' martial arts by now.

It's a pity that the great experts are not willing to study so focused on the hidden dangers of workers.

"Even if you don't mention things like morality and emotions, you are really a bunch of idiots."

Su Hanshan thought silently in his heart, "All eyes and wisdom are seduced by the magic power of gold and silver, but gold and silver are just a medium, and they must cooperate with people's actions to produce power."

"These are people who have changed from farmers to workers in the changing times. They have had the opportunity to broaden their horizons, develop their potential, and cultivate a unified work consciousness."

"They account for 70% of the population in Songjiang, and they are all over the world. You can see them everywhere, but you only regard them as consumables that are replaced every three or two years."

In the messy garden, when the sun reaches noon, Su Hanshan looks directly at the sun.

"Then let me tell you guys who waste everything, what kind of power this will be!"
