Douluo: Simplify Cultivation, Holy Angel

Chapter 156 Davis and Zhu Zhuyun

As the president of the Blacksmiths Association, Lou Gao still cares about the interests of the blacksmith industry. If the development trend of the world is as Li Xuanji said, then the social status of their blacksmiths will be improved a lot.

Therefore, the blacksmith naturally sides with the soul guide.

And if Lou Gao joined the Divine Machine Hall, it would be no different from the entire Blacksmith Association joining the Divine Machine Hall.

"Since Senior Lou Gao himself can't escape, why not recommend a group of disciples to me to join the Divine Machine Palace first? In addition, some of the outsourced work of the Divine Machine Palace can be handed over to the Blacksmiths Association."

Li Xuanji has an industrial mindset. Many ordinary soul tools can be produced using assembly lines, and many low-end and laborious tasks can be outsourced.

"Of course this is what it should be. Disciples like me who can't use weapons can join your Majesty's Divine Machine Hall. It's their blessing."

Lou Gao did not refuse. After all, the Li Xuanji in front of him was also a titled Douluo. If he really pissed him off, Lou Gao would definitely not get any good results.

"Master Silong, the subordinate organizations of our Divine Machine Palace are mainly divided into three parts, the Forging Department, the Scientific Research Department, and the Security Department. Among them, I want to reserve the position of the Minister of the Forging Department for your master. This is one of the Deputy Ministers of the Forging Department. How about I leave it to you?"

Li Xuanji stopped arguing with Lou Gao and turned to look at Silong who was huddled behind Lou Gao.

"Of course I am willing to do this, so thank you for your support, senior."

Silong hesitated for a moment and then was forced to agree.

Although Li Xuanji's words were for discussion, Silong actually did not have the right to refuse due to the gap in their identities.

"With the help of Master Silong and the Blacksmiths Association, I believe that the Divine Machine Palace will develop better."

Li Xuanji said with a smile, and then continued: "Master Silong will make preparations in Gengxin City first, and I will go to Xingluo City first to win the support of the Xingluo royal family."

"Then I congratulate the palace master on his immediate success."

Silong's identity changed very quickly. Being a subordinate of a titled Douluo with a hundred thousand year soul ring was not a bad thing.

At least Li Xuanji can fight much better than Lou Gao, and he will have more face when speaking out.

"Senior Lou Gao, take your leave."

"My Majesty, please walk slowly."

Li Xuanji said goodbye and disappeared from Forging Room No. 1 in an instant, disappearing like a stream of light.

After seeing Li Xuanji leave, Lou Gao silently closed the door to the foundry room and sat slumped on the greasy sofa, his tight-fitting vest already soaked with sweat.

"Master, the master of the Divine Machine Palace has invited us, and we have no right to refuse."

Silong sighed and looked at Lou Gao helplessly. He really didn't dare to shirk Li Xuanji. When Li Xuanji released the soul ring, the terrifying pressure was like a giant dragon, which could kill him with one finger.

Perhaps Li Xuanji would not embarrass him, but Silong did not dare to refuse Li Xuanji's invitation.

"It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that cannot be avoided. Silong, just go with peace of mind. After all, this master of the Shenji Palace is also a titled Douluo with a hundred thousand year soul ring."

"Then does he still have a 100,000-year-old soul bone in his body?"

"Silong, don't speak nonsense."

…………

Star Luo City.

The capital of the Star Dou Empire looks extremely majestic. The city wall is tall and stretches for dozens of kilometers, like a giant dragon winding and hovering over the earth.

There were groups of soldiers in armor patrolling at the gate of the city. The spears they held in their hands exuded a cold light, and their bodies exuded an evil aura. This is a momentum that can only be tempered by experiencing battles on the battlefield.

Entering Xingluo City, the streets in the city are spacious and clean, paved with bluestone paved roads, lined with shops on both sides, and many products are dazzling.

Li Xuanji carefully observed the vendors and pedestrians in the city and found that the lives of ordinary people in Star Luo City were better than those in Tiandou City.

Without many soul master families to support, the Star Luo Empire would still be richer.

"Boss, please roll the meat into two big pancakes and add spicy food."

Smelling the aroma of meat coming from the street, Li Xuanji's mouth watered and he went directly to the small shop selling meat in big pancakes.

"This young master has a total of twenty copper soul coins."

After waiting for a while, an eighty-nine-year-old girl wearing simple clothes and looking very confident brought two hot and golden cakes and placed them on the table in front of Li Xuanji.

"A gold soul coin, no need to look for it."

Li Xuanji searched for his storage ring for a moment, but found that he had no copper soul coins at all.

"Thank you, young master."

The little girl looked happy, thanked her and happily returned to the kitchen.

At noon, under the sunlight, the glazed tiles of the First Prince's Mansion sparkled, as if they were coated with a layer of gold. Li Xuanji came to the main entrance of the First Prince's Mansion. Bathed in the sunshine, he looked extraordinarily extraordinary, like a god walking on earth.

"Senior, this is the residence of the eldest prince, His Highness Davis. I wonder what you are here for. Do you need me to inform you?"

Li Xuanji didn't look like a mortal, and the guards guarding the eldest prince's mansion in the Star Luo Empire didn't dare to neglect him, so they stepped forward and said respectfully.

"I am Li Shenji, the master of the Shenji Palace. I came to Xingluo City today and want to visit the eldest prince. Please let me know."

Li Xuanji spoke politely and without any arrogance.

"It turns out to be Master Shenji, and I am your fan! The theory of martial soul evolution you proposed has inspired countless soul masters. Our Highness also admires you very much. Senior, please wait a moment, I will report it right away. "

The guard exclaimed and quickly rushed towards the interior of the First Prince's Mansion. The inheritance of the throne in the Star Luo Empire is very cruel. If you want to ascend to the throne of the prince, you must defeat other princes. If the prince fails, he will be abolished and exiled, or lose his life.

In order to save their own lives, the fight between the princes was extremely fierce, without any sense of brotherhood.

Now that the Star Luo Empire has the White Tiger Spirit, there are two princes who can compete for the position of crown prince. One is the eldest prince Davis, and the other is the third prince Dai Mubai. However, because of the large age gap, Davis has almost been locked in. victory. The third prince, Dai Mubai, had already gone to a certain Sanwu Academy in the Tiandou Empire to escape the pressure from Davis.

Many officials of the Star Luo Empire have ignored the rules of the Star Luo royal family and turned to Davis. Even Dai Mubai has run away, and we ministers must side with Davis.

A moment later, Davis came to greet Li Xuanji surrounded by everyone in the Grand Prince's Mansion.

Li Xuanji looked up and saw that Davis had long golden hair hanging loosely on his back. He had a lazy look on his face and looked very confident. His eyes were full of purple, his facial features were distinct, and he was very tall and handsome. Moreover, Davis has a similar temperament, which is the temperament of a superior person that can only be cultivated by holding power for a long time.

Next to Dai Mubai was a tall girl with an extremely plump figure that was simply unnatural. The girl's skin is like mutton-fat white jade, and her smile looks very soft. This is Zhu Zhuqing's sister, Zhu Zhuyun.

Davis's soul power is currently level 44, while Zhu Zhuyun is weaker, only level 42. By the time of the next Soul Master Competition three years later, Davis's soul power may be able to break through level 50.

Besides Davis and Zhu Zhuyun, the one who caught Li Xuanji's attention was the thin, white-haired old man following Davis.

The old man looked very old, his figure could not stay straight, and he was a little rickety.

The wrinkles on his forehead were very deep, and his eyelids were lowered, as if he was drowsy. The soul power fluctuations on his body are also very normal, just like an ordinary soul sect, which makes people feel defensive.

But Li Xuanji's mental power has reached the spiritual realm, and he is also blessed with the golden eyes that can see through illusions. The old man's details cannot be hidden from Li Xuanji at all.

This old man is a Contra, and an eighty-ninth level Contra.

But for the current Li Xuanji, this old man is not his enemy at all.

Li Xuanji was sizing up Davis and the others. Naturally, Davis and the others were also sizing up Li Xuanji. After taking a look at Li Xuanji, Davis's guardian quickly reminded him in a low voice:

"Weiss, this Li Shenji's cultivation is unfathomable. He should be a titled Douluo. You must treat him with caution."

"Master Shenji, I have admired your name for a long time. Please tell me about it."

Davis looked at Li Xuanji's young face and heard the reminder from his protector. He couldn't help but be a little shocked, but the teachings from the Xingluo royal family made him adjust his mood quickly.

"First Prince, ever since I traveled to the Star Luo Empire, I have heard about the First Prince's virtuous reputation. Today I saw that he is truly well-deserved."

Li Xuanji followed Davis and others to the reception room of the Prince's Mansion, and after a few business talk with Davis, they started chatting about the main topic.

"Does the eldest prince know my original intention of creating the Divine Machine Palace?"

"Weis is stupid, so I will just say a few words. If I make a mistake, please don't blame Master Shenji." David Wei cleared his throat lightly, thought for a while, and then started to say: "I have also read the works of Master Shenji, many of which are I sympathize with the people at the bottom, and the soul guide you developed is also to facilitate farmers' farming, so I make a wild guess that you created the Shenji Temple to improve the lives of the people at the bottom. This move is of great merit, and I very much hope that Master Shenji will do the same. Help our Star Luo Empire to produce some soul guidance devices."

As the eldest prince of the Star Luo Empire, Davis received orthodox royal education since he was a child. He has great vision and IQ, and his speech is impeccable.

"The eldest prince is right. Eliminating absolute poverty in Douluo Continent is my original intention of creating the Divine Machine Palace. To eliminate absolute poverty, we must improve productivity, and developing soul guides is the best way to increase productivity."

"As for helping the Star Luo Empire to produce soul tools that help people's livelihood, Shen Ji is naturally bound to do so. And I am here precisely to expand the Shen Ji Temple to the Star Luo Empire and help the Star Luo Empire increase its productivity."

Li Xuanji heard Davis' request and quickly agreed.

"Master Shenji, I wonder what you mean by absolute poverty and productivity? I roughly know what it means, but I can't figure it out specifically."

Zhu Zhuyun asked softly from the side.

After hearing Zhu Zhuyun's question, Li Xuanji organized his speech and then said: "Absolute poverty and relative poverty are two different standards for measuring social and economic conditions. Absolute poverty means that an individual's income level is lower than a fixed poverty line. Currently, To put it bluntly, I set the standard of absolute poverty as food and clothing. In other words, the current goal of Shenji Palace is to eliminate hunger in Douluo Continent and make everyone have enough to eat. "

"Relative poverty refers to the position of an individual in the socioeconomic structure, which is measured relative to the average income of society. Just like the relatively poor among billionaires, they still have a lot of wealth and their income still exceeds the absolute level. most people."

"Productivity refers to the economic output created by labor input under certain production conditions. The higher the output, the richer Douluo Continent will naturally be, and naturally everyone can have enough to eat."

"I understand what Master Shenji said. But it seems impossible to feed everyone in the entire Douluo Continent, right?"

When Zhu Zhuyun heard Li Xuanji's words, he looked thoughtful, and then continued: "If people can eat enough, then people will definitely follow their instincts and reproduce. A couple can easily give birth to four or five children, and it won't take more than two." The population can double easily in ten years, but can productivity double quickly?”

Zhu Zhuyun's question hit the nail on the head. It seems that being big-hearted and brainless is all a rumor.

"The question raised by Miss Zhu Zhuyun is indeed very constructive, but I also expected this. But after productivity increases, the economy of the society is developed, people's education level is generally improved, and social welfare is improved, people do not need to raise children to provide for old age. The concept of childbearing will also change. At that time, people's situation is just like our soul masters. Almost no female soul masters are willing to have children before the age of twenty. I believe Miss Zhu Zhuyun also understands this."

"Moreover, we can also upgrade contraceptive measures..."

"In short, although the process may have twists and turns, the future is bright."

"Your Highness Davis, believe it, the Divine Machine Palace will become a beacon for the entire Douluo Continent in the future."

Li Xuanji was eloquent and kept talking, which made Davis and Zhu Zhuyun stunned for a while.

"Master Shen Ji is really a great talent. If I were not the eldest prince of the Star Luo Empire, I would definitely join the Shen Ji Palace and serve as Master Shen Ji's master."

Davis really feels that what Li Xuanji said is quite right. One should do meaningful things in one's life!
"Your Highness Davis, my Divine Machine Palace is relying on you to start a war in the Star Luo Empire."

"Master Shenji, just don't worry about me, Davis, doing things. Just to be on the safe side, I would like to introduce you to meet my father."

"Emperor Xingluo? I also admire him very much, and I am very honored to meet him."

"Zhuyun, please entertain Master Shenji first, and I will go to the palace to report to my father."

After saying that, Davis walked away. Zhu Zhuyun received Li Shenji, so he could rest assured.

After Davis left, Zhu Zhuyun approached Li Xuanji and whispered: "Master Shenji, I want to trouble you with something..."
