Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 509 Brand new version
The sun was at its highest point as Fang Yuan sat in a small bamboo grove. The mottled green shade blocked the direct sunlight, leaving only some bright spots on the ground.

The bamboo forest was clean and refreshing. There was a slight breeze blowing in from all directions, and there were no mosquitoes or insects, as they were all driven away by the magic array set up around it.

A recliner, a book and a pot of tea.

Fang Yuan spent her leisurely afternoon here.

When Fang Yuan first arrived in Shuangqing Prefecture, she thought it would be a desolate place with no grass growing.

But when she actually arrived, Fang Yuan found that this was not the case. At least Shuangqing Mansion had been recovering rapidly after her husband took control of the situation.

After living here for two months, Fang Yuan even liked the climate here. She also understood why Shuangqing Prefecture, which was rumored to have been in dire straits for a long time, was no longer desolate, but instead looked bustling in such a short period of time.

One reason is that although Shuangqing Prefecture suffered a tragic fate, it still retained a certain population base and was not wantonly wiped out.

Second, after Yang Qian came to power, he directly exempted all agricultural taxes in Shuangqing Prefecture for three years and encouraged land reclamation. The reclaimed land could be directly owned by individuals, and they only needed to pay taxes to the state government after three years.

The third is to encourage people to have children, regardless of gender. Rice, flour, and money will be given to each additional child, and agricultural taxes will be exempted for one year.

Finally, merchants were encouraged to trade. All merchant caravans entering and leaving Shuangqing Prefecture were strongly protected by the military yamen in Shuangqing Prefecture, and the commercial tax was also reduced to 60% of the normal level.

If this series of policies are promulgated, it is the National Dynasty that will suffer, but the people of Shuangqing Prefecture will benefit. But in the long run, once Shuangqing Prefecture has passed the current stage of recuperation, with the climate and environment here, the National Dynasty will definitely be able to obtain a new tax treasure land!
As for whether these policies were thought up by her husband, Fang Yuan didn't care. Even if they were all thought up by Cui Mingsheng, so what? Still needed her husband's approval? The credit also belonged to her husband.

Thinking of her husband, Fang Yuan couldn't help but look towards a small courtyard not far from the bamboo forest. That was where her husband was in seclusion.

All day long, there was an invisible barrier around the hut, and no one could get close to it within ten feet, nor could they see what was going on inside the yard. All they could see was a thick fog enveloping the yard, and there was a faint smell of heat coming out of the house.

In fact, Fang Yuan’s guess was not accurate.

Retreat? Does a hacker like Yang Qian need to retreat? Not showing up is just because he is busy with other things.

Now Yang Qian has two ways to continue to improve his strength. One is to continue to go to the Sword Domain and the Zhao family's Dharma Tower.

The other is to sort out and improve the means you already have, squeeze out your potential, and not waste the power of the various means you have.

On the way back, Yang Qian had already made a decision that he would not continue exploring the Sword Domain and the Dharma Tower for the time being.

He has a lot of things on his hands now, so he should take this opportunity to sort them out thoroughly.

There are now two parts of the cultivation method.

One is the "Three Turns to Heavenly Kung Fu" obtained from the Zhao family's Dharma Tower, and the other is the "Thunder Destruction Sutra - Part 1" just brought back from the Five Thunder Palace.

Yang Qian was not in a hurry to practice the "Thunder Annihilation Sutra·Part 1". It was not because he looked down upon this method, but compared to the "Three Turns Tongtian Gong", the "Thunder Annihilation Sutra·Part 1" was much easier. After all, the former required cultivation conditions and thresholds, while the latter only required experience.

Therefore, Yang Qian must first organize and tap the potential of the "Three Turns to Heavenly Power". The difficulty of the "Three Turns to Heavenly Power" lies in the fact that it requires the body to be tempered before the conditions for practice can be met.

Even though Yang Qian was a martial artist at the fusion realm, he still had lingering fears about the prerequisites for the "Three Turns to the Heavenly Kung Fu".

It's not just the excruciating pain of tempering the body while sitting on the "Fire Lotus", but also the horrific energy consumption of the body during tempering. Both can be fatal.

Yang Qian gritted his teeth and was able to hold on despite the pain, but the consumption problem was more urgent.

Even with a mid-grade or even high-grade spirit stone in hand, Yang Qian still couldn't guarantee that he could keep up with the rapidly increasing energy consumption during body tempering. Last time, he tried his best and could only barely keep up with this consumption. "Eating" spirit stones was like drinking water, but in the end, his martial soul pill was still exhausted and shriveled beyond recognition.

This was when he was in the Out-of-Body Realm. Now that he had entered the Integration Realm, Yang Qian's body was already a semi-immortal body. If he wanted to refine it further, it would definitely be more profound, and the power consumed would definitely increase dramatically. It would definitely not work to rely on spiritual stones, which were a source of replenishment that needed to be absorbed slowly.

As a substitute, the most direct thing Yang Qian could think of was elixir.

Qi-replenishing pill!
After swallowing, a large amount of spiritual energy can be directly replenished in a very short time. Coupled with the conversion efficiency of the martial soul pill, the input and output are several times faster than simply using spirit stones to replenish strength.

Ordinary Qi-replenishing pills are naturally not enough.

Yang Qian estimated that it had to be at least a top-grade Qi-boosting pill, preferably a treasure-grade Qi-boosting pill. The effect didn't need to be as outrageous as the intermittent pill, but the total amount of Qi replenished had to be 30% to 50% of the intermittent pill.

The recipes for Qi-boosting pills are all ready-made and can be found in the "Hundred Herbs and Hundred Prescriptions". Even the Qi-boosting pills of the precious pill level use the same recipe, but the medicinal materials and techniques used in refining will change accordingly.

Yang Qian controls the entire Shuangqing Prefecture, and there are many sacred mountains producing medicines here, and some secret realms have been converted into medicinal fields, so he has no shortage of medicinal materials.

After making a long list, Yang Qian began to add his own alchemy skills to it.

It is said that "Zeng Hou Bao Jian" was left behind by an alchemist named Zeng Hou a thousand years ago. It records superb alchemy techniques and secrets, and talks about the mixing and matching effects of various alchemy techniques and secrets in refining different elixirs, as well as the taboos.

Available experience: -1000-2000-4000-8000
[Congratulations! After your continuous comprehension and repeated practice, you have comprehended the Zenghou Baojian to perfection. Even if you have different opinions on many of the principles, it still allows you to have a deeper understanding of the Dao of Alchemy, and has produced subtle changes in your own cognition.]

Because it is a pure knowledge and experience method. Compared with the methods of skills and magic, after perfection, more knowledge will be infused into one's sea of ​​consciousness.

Yang Qian had already mastered this process by heart. But this time it seemed different, so much so that it took him more time to sort out and accept the new knowledge and principles that had been poured into his sea of ​​consciousness.

In the past, new knowledge and principles came in to replace and update old knowledge and cognition. This time, the new knowledge and principles were corrected by Yang Qian’s old cognition.

In other words, while Yang Qian was absorbing the Zenghou Baojian, he also needed to change the parts that he considered to be "irrational" or "too complicated". Finally, it landed in his sea of ​​consciousness.

However, Yang Qian opened his eyes and realized the new knowledge and cognitive changes in his sea of ​​consciousness. He thought to himself: This is no longer the Zenghou Treasure Mirror, right? Is this considered my improved version?
