Peerless Taoist

A large star map was placed on one side of the Imperial Reading Room.    

Anyone who looked at the star would be able to see everything. Cities, mountains, rivers, deserts, and many other places could be seen.    

This was the credit of the Heavenly Seal Pavilion. The Heavenly Seal Pavilion had set up Heaven's Eye Suspended Formation everywhere to observe the surroundings. At the same time, the Ministry of Revenue would conduct a survey of the territory every few years to form this massive star map.    

This star map was much more detailed than an ordinary map. It required a large amount of Spirit Stones to operate every day, and not just anyone could have it.    

At this moment, Lu Yu, the two Grand Secretarys, Li Si, and Pei Tianguang stood in front of the star map.    

"Ever since the Nether Realm merged with Great Qin, my dynasty has expanded to the point that it can even be compared to Great Yu at its peak." Li Si said with a sigh:    

"The special resources of the Nether Realm, such as Dark Nether Iron, Dark Spirit Stones, and so on, are all needed by the Heaven Realm. Now, trade has already been opened wide, and dozens of large markets have been formed. The few stars near the entrance of the Nether Realm were all quickly developing and growing, attracting merchants from all over the world to gather here. Last year, the taxes paid by the Victorious East Star River were almost twenty times that of Great Yu. It was simply a qualitative leap. "    

Pei Tianguang also nodded," In the past, the trade between the Nether Realm and the Heaven Realm was controlled by the Yan Family, and the majority of the profits were taken away by the Yan Family. The merchants were also taking risks. If they were not careful, they might be completely taken over by the Yan Family. However, the situation is much better now. With the protection of the Great Qin government, people far away from the Manjiang are willing to come here to do business, so the business environment is much better."    

The two of them were talking about the current situation.    

Subduing the Nether Realm was something that many Saint Capitals from the ancient times had not been able to accomplish. They had even combined the scattered Eighteen Realms into one, which was even more shocking.    

This was not only the expansion of the territory, but also the expansion of the population, resources, and wealth, which quickly circulated in the Heavenly Realm along with the connection of the Nether Realm.    

Great Qin had inherited half of Great Yu's territory and was facing a dilapidated situation. But now, there were a hundred things to be done and the situation was like adding oil to the fire.    

Lu Yu also felt the changes brought about by the fate of the nation.    

The fate of the Empire was the main reason for all cultivators to join the Empire. The higher the rank of the official, the stronger the blessing of the fate of the Empire would be, and the cultivation speed would also be faster.    

This was something that many outer sect disciples could not compare with.    

As the Emperor of Great Qin, Lu Yu enjoyed the most intense amount of Fate. Even though he had already broken through to the Divine King Realm, it was still helpful to his cultivation.    

"The fusion of the Nether Realm and the Heaven Realm is not something that can be done overnight." Lu Yu said: "Not only business, but also everything else. Wei Zhong and Liu Jin were the inspectors and eunuchs of the two divisions. They were stationed there, so they did not only care about the business and also helped the Ministry of Finance to keep an eye on the human population. The Nether Realm is vast and sparsely populated, and the Heaven Realm is filled with talented people. Let those who are useful go to the Nether Realm to open up their territory and put it on the agenda here."    

"This subject obeys."    

"That's right, there's something more important that I called you here for."    

Lu Yu said: "The master of the Buddhism League has already been executed by me. As for the remaining assets of the fake Buddhism League, hurry up and complete the liquidation and confiscation as soon as possible, and put these assets into the national treasury of Great Qin. "
