Chapter 1604: Red Hot
"He Chunhua's victory was faster than I expected." He Lingchuan stroked his chin and thought, "In addition to his personal ability, perhaps Narakuten invested more resources."
"The gods are always stingy. Narakuten suddenly became generous, probably because it was profitable." He Chunhua had been hooking up with Narakuten for a long time. He Lingchuan's body still had the mark of Narakuten in its sea of consciousness. He Chunhua had been fighting alone in Blackwater City before, and he had suffered a lot. How many times had Narakuten helped him?
In the past two or three years, the gods have suddenly increased their investment generously, which shows that they have seen He Chunhua's potential and believe that he is worthy of investment.
He Lingchuan now understands the gods much better than before. He knows that there are groups, ranks, and stratifications among the gods. Main gods like Narakuten are often surrounded by a large group of gods.
It can also be said that each main god forms an ecosystem of its own, distributed in sequence below the main god.
This is similar to the human world.
Therefore, as a group leader, although every major decision made by Naraku Ten seems to be arbitrary, he is actually responsible to the gods behind him and cannot act arbitrarily.
Without the support of Bega, it is not easy for gods other than Lingxu to cultivate their own power in the human world. This shows that Naraku Tian's move to use resources to help He Chunhua end the civil war was well thought out and showed urgency.
He Lingchuan said to himself: "What does he want to do?"
"Ah, who?" asked the mirror, "Are you asking about Narakuten or He Chunhua?"
He Lingchuan looked out the window. On this rainy and snowy night, there was only endless darkness between heaven and earth.
"Both. He Chunhua has established a country and become the king. His long-cherished wish has come true. Then what?"
"Can't he just stay on the throne?"
"Narotian is so kind that he helps him ascend the throne for free?" He Lingchuan shook his head. "People who repay gods have a contractual relationship with gods. He Chunhua has achieved his goal and must fulfill his original promise. Therefore, part of his next actions must be to satisfy the requirements of the gods, which deserves our special attention."
The mirror asked him, "Why pay attention to them?"
"Nairakutian's behavior is closely related to the turmoil in the God Realm. We know too little about the situation in the other world, so we can only make reverse inferences based on the changes in the human world." He Lingchuan analyzed, "I even suspect that the decreasing amount of faith and nightmare energy collected in the Shining Gold Plains has forced those gods to turn their attention to the west and increase their investment in the Shen Kingdom that He Chunhua had just established."
"In the past, this might not have been the best choice, after all, Bega is right next door." Who wouldn't be annoyed by such a powerful and bad-tempered neighbor? "But the gods' support for the power in the human world is not like planting crops. You can't just plant melons and get melons, or plant beans and get beans. The most likely scenario is that the people you want to support will never be able to get up the wall, and the people you don't want to support will grow like weeds."
"So we can only make do with it in the end?" Mirror said with a smile, "It's a big deal that He Chunhua can show up. Narakuten is worthy of being the God of Destiny. He still has some luck."
"Yes, Narakutian wants to find someone stronger than He Chunhua, but I don't know how long it will take." He Lingchuan also said, "Looking at their anxious behavior, the chaos in the God Realm may make them unable to wait any longer."
"That means that the Shen Kingdom under Narakuten's control will not be at peace either?"
"Yuan State was poor and weak, and had been trapped in internal strife for many years. It was not easy for He Chunhua to take over. You can see that the first thing he did before he ascended the throne was to plunder Yuan City. You can see how much he lacked money and food."
He Chunhua fought Dong Haoming to death, and although he managed to win, he killed 1,000 enemies but lost 800 of his own, and the people were impoverished and the money was gone. Therefore, he had to ask for money from the government who hid the wealth.
He killed people in Yuandu until rivers of blood flowed. On the one hand, he wanted to eliminate future troubles, and on the other hand, he wanted to squeeze out every drop of wealth.
He Chunhua knew very well how inefficient the Yuan court was and how corrupt the officials were. Most of the Yuan country's wealth was concentrated in the hands of these officials.
By taking advantage of the victory to kill them, the new country will have reserve funds for operation.
However, during Dong Haoming's occupation of Yuandu, he had already plowed the capital and used all the money and grain he had looted for war. He Chunhua didn't get the first bite of the soup, and Yuandu's wealth was greatly diluted.
"So, what He Chunhua should do most right now is to recuperate and restore the people's strength. It just so happens that the Emperor's Flowing Sap has erupted frequently, and the spiritual energy of the world has increased. This is a great opportunity for the new country." He Lingchuan sighed softly, "I hope he can be determined and not be completely controlled by Narakuten. Otherwise, this world will be purgatory for the people of Shen country!"
But he understood that the Shen State Dai Yuan war was far from the end, and it might very well be the beginning of a new round of changes in the west.
He Chunhua should not be underestimated, even though he is only the king of a small country.
Then, He Lingchuan opened the second letter.
This letter is longer, mainly reporting by Ding Zuodong on the latest situation of the Yangshan Islands.
Every seven to ten days, the Yangshan Islands and the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce on Shanjin would send a telegram report to He Lingchuan.
In fact, Yang Shan’s business has been booming lately!
Because the country of Mu had placed a large number of orders, it not only purchased a large number of medicines, weapons, and protective gear from Yangshan, but also negotiated several exclusive large deals with Yangshan, involving 26 categories. You know, the domestic weapon casting of the country of Mu really needs catalysts such as Weiyin Agent, but it is usually hard to get them because it is only produced in Beijia and Yao.
Yao State has not yet sold this kind of key material under state control to Mou State, but He Lingchuan has long been the exclusive foreign agent of Wei Yin Ji. Yao Ting tried every means to raise money for the Tianshui East Expansion Project, so He Lingchuan has been on a shopping spree in the past few months, purchasing not only Wei Yin Ji, but also a large number of high-quality assets.
When Mou Guo learned the news, he came to Yang Shan to do business.
As the regent of Yao State, Qingyang was very dissatisfied with this and mentioned it several times in the court. Although Yao State did not sell it, Mou State could still buy key materials from Yangshan Islands, and Mou State was still at war with Beijia.
To round it off, Yao State sold Wei Silver Agent and other supplies to Beijia's opponents. It would be strange if Qingyang and Beijia had no objection.
However, Yao State has not yet abolished the most-favored-treatment of the Yangshan Islands. Firstly, He Lingchuan is the backbone of the Tianshui eastward expansion project and is at the forefront of the fight against Qingyang, so King Yao has to give him some benefits. Secondly, He Lingchuan judges that King Yao also wants to use this matter as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Bega in the future.
Yaoguo no longer obeys Beijia in everything.
From this perspective, it is not easy for He Lingchuan to continue selling the Weiyin Agent. The pressure and risks involved are not small, so the price is naturally not cheap.
