Peerless Taoist

"However, the spiritual energy is limited. Most of the spiritual energy is absorbed by the formations of some courtyards, so there isn't much time for them to absorb the spiritual energy. Usually, they only have about two hours."    

Lu Yu let out a long sigh. "But staying in the mountain Temple means that there is no privacy to speak of. The matter of female cultivators being defiled by others happened occasionally. It was even to the extent that if they were to reveal their wealth inside... What? "    

Zhao Yuanyan's breathing became hurried: "Don't tell me the local authorities don't care about these things!"    

"They do, but it is only when the matter is big enough. The officials will only appear. However, most of the methods are only to expel them from the city. This kind of thing can't be managed."    

Lu Yu said, "In the end, the reason why this series of events happened was because of the high price of the houses. However, this money did not flow into the government's inventory, but into the money bag of the owner. This caused the aristocratic families to become richer and richer, while ordinary people were not able to save money. The cultivation level would also become weaker and weaker, and it would be impossible for them to compete with the scions of the aristocratic families."    

"I don't think Zhen has given the Xu family so many fiefdom. A single star has three fiefdom continents. Even a Prince would not be so exaggerated."    

Zhao Yuanyan's eyes were solemn, and his expression was solemn.    

"Because the land has merged!"    

Lu Yu said in a deep voice, "The people who used to own the land either declined or died. They had to sell the land at a low price to catch their breath. The aristocratic families would choose to buy all the land at this time. Embrace the land! It was a vast and boundless territory. As for those who have lost their land, they are forced to leave this city."    

"Also, because of the tax exemption policy of the Imperial Court, it caused a large amount of land income to be unable to be included in the tax range of the Imperial Court. This caused the various aristocratic families to be able to act recklessly and use land to earn money for a long period of time."    

Lu Yu said, "This is only one of the many sins of the aristocratic families. Other than that, ___ said. Aristocratic families also monopolized a large number of industries. For example, the Zhang family's paper-making industry might seem unremarkable, but it was extremely profitable. If others wanted to interfere in this industry, they might be suppressed by the Zhang family. If they are ostracized, they will end up with nothing in the end."    

Zhao Yuanyan was rather surprised and said, "According to Zhen, the Zhang family should be on good terms with you."    

Lu Yu said, "If you want to treat the poison by scratching your bones, you must give up. Aristocratic families are a whole. For the sake of benefits, they can express goodwill to me, but this is a matter of national affairs, they must obey!"    

"What about the Lu Family? Your family should have become the direct descendant of the Lu Family by now."    

"The Lu Family is no exception!"    

Zhao Yuanyan's expression changed slightly, "What do you plan to do?"    

"First, the land will belong to the government."    

Lu Yu said, "The land, arable land, and woodlands of the city will all belong to the government. Personal transactions are strictly prohibited. Nowadays, the land seized by the various large families is not recognized, and the land obtained through legitimate means is not recognized. You can compensate for that."    

Zhao Yuanyan shook his head. "Those aristocratic families will not agree to what you have done."    

"If anyone dares to disobey, then just wait to be destroyed."    

Lu Yu said indifferently.    

As he spoke, it was as if there were countless swords and spears hidden in his voice. A faint killing intent could be felt, causing people to shiver in fear.
