C4976 It Was Difficult to Settle down
It was hard to imagine that such a sentence would come out of Zhao Yuanyan's mouth.
In the past, Zhao Yuanyan was extremely obsessed with power. No one would be able to take the throne away from him.
But now, Zhao Yuanyan actually asked Lu Yu how to control the throne. Apparently, he had realized that the situation had changed.
Lu Yu said, "The poison of the aristocratic families has been rotten for a long time. The exploitation of the feudal lords in various places is quite severe. Take the Dingan Star of the Imperial Capital as an example. Dingan Star has five continents, three of which are the Xu Family's fiefdom. The other two belong to the Imperial Court."
"Most of the taxes on the three fiefdom are to be given to the owner of the fiefdom first. However, they are to be given to the Imperial Court. This also means that the tax on the Imperial Court will be greatly reduced, and most of the wealth will be given to the owner of the fiefdom. They flow into the hands of these feudal lords."
"That's right, that's true." Zhao Yuanyan nodded.
Lu Yu continued, "No cultivator can avoid the fortune of a spiritual partner. But there are limited places in this world that have spiritual qi, many places where spiritual qi gather. Or... They built cities or were occupied by sects, so cultivators want a place to practice. At the very least, they need to live in one city or join a sect. "
"However, the sect's spiritual energy resources are limited, so the threshold is extremely high Take a beginner sect with three to four hundred people for example. If you want to join, you need to first test your aptitude. Then test your strength, and then check your background, and so on. Even old people wouldn't want it. "
"Many people who have nowhere else to go, if they want to further their cultivation, they have to stay in the city This step is actually harder than joining a sect"
Zhao Yuanyan frowned and shook his head. "The Heaven Realm is vast and there are many cities in the forest. What difficulties do you have if you want to land in a city?"
Lu Yu said, "From the day you were born, you were a member of the royal family. Your identity as a prince allowed you to live a life without worries. Of course, you don't know how ordinary people live."
"Take an ordinary cultivator as an example. He might accept some bounty missions or do some work. He can earn 3,000 spirit stone a month."
"It's not easy to earn these three thousand spirit stones. However, in the ordinary prefectural city of Dingan Planet, he wanted to buy a three-way house. That's at least 2.4 million spirit stone. In other words, if he didn't eat or drink, he would need to save up more than 60 years. Talent! He had to buy a house like this. During this period of time, if I were to stay in an inn, the expenses I would need would be even greater."
Zhao Yuanyan took a deep breath and revealed a surprised expression." Is it really that difficult? Can't they not live in a house? "
Lu Yu said, "According to the rules of Great Yu's Imperial Court, every city will be under curfew after three nights. Anyone who wanders on the streets will be imprisoned. Some prisoners will be sent to dangerous places such as iron mines and spirit mines, and their lives will be at risk if they are difficult to live. Therefore, they will definitely not take the risk."
Zhao Yuanyan did not speak anymore, and his face revealed a surprised expression.
These things were things that he had never come into contact with in the depths of the palace.
"I'm afraid you don't know that every night, there will be a large number of people gathering in the mountain Temple and beggar's nest in the city."
Lu Yu said, "These people are not homeless beggars. Many of them are cultivators who intend to cultivate in the city. In order to stay in the city, they squeezed in the mountain Temple. Over fifty people squeezed into a courtyard. Sometimes, they didn't even have a place to stay."
