Chapter 342: Turning point (top)

Residents in Jinxia City are not aware that the whole area of Shenzhou is

undergoing an earth-shaking change. They only feel that this winter will be

particularly at ease.

Compared with the tight days in the past few years, this time almost every

household has a surplus of money. The price of charcoal fire is not expensive,

and the price of food is basically maintained at a normal level. People do not

have to worry about being frozen without being able to light the stove, nor do

they need to fear that the pot is empty. In addition to the expenses necessary

for the New Year, most residents can also add some new clothes or new

appliances to their homes.

And everyone has not forgotten who brought all these changes.

If the Princess is the protector of Jinxia City, then the Comprehensive

Affairs Bureau established by Xia Fucheng is the beginning of a new life.

Nowadays, 80% of the big and small things in the city are related to the

bureau. Whether it is looking for work or resolving disputes, you can go to

the bureau to resolve it, so that the site of the Privy Council has now

completely become the bureau’s The department lobby, and the Privy Council

itself, was officially renamed the Privy Department and became a branch of the

Secretariat.

Thanks to the accumulation of prestige, the people have gradually understood

one thing.

That is the promise made by the Secretariat, and it will definitely be

realized.

The decree it issued will surely be implemented.

This makes the bulletin board at the gate always crowded. Once a new notice is

posted on it, it will definitely attract everyone's attention in the first

place.

In the eyes of some clever businessmen, it is even equivalent to a business

opportunity.

Towards the end of December, a new notice was posted-as soon as the red paper

was posted, it was surrounded by everyone.

The content of the notice is not long and is divided into two parts.

The literate among the onlookers had already read it out.

"The Secretariat will soon set up a new department to publicize and record the

achievements, anecdotes, and New Deal guidelines that Jinxia has achieved. It

is now recruiting a book publisher, a paper mill, and a dye shop that are

interested in cooperating. The quota is limited. Apply at the service hall of

the bureau!"

"It turned out to be recruitment news. It sounds like the bureau wants to

publish a book by itself?"

Everyone is not unfamiliar with this type of notice. Except for the two major

industries of the Saltworks and the Mechanical Engineering Bureau, the Bureau

will allocate a part of the project for the public to participate in whatever

it wants. As long as they can meet their requirements, they are basically not

profitable. pay.

It's just that the content of this cooperation is a bit off the beaten track.

"If it's just for publishing books, don't the school have published several

books?" Someone put forward a different opinion, "They must have new

requirements for publicity, and they need the cooperation of the paper mill

and the dye shop."

"Will it be a manual like the "Guide to Self-Help by Evil"? A new one will be

published every one or two months. It is thinner than a book and its content

is not like a traditional book."

"It's possible. And if you want to record all the results and anecdotes, this

booklet must be published quite diligently."

"There are only one or two dyeing workshops in Jinxia City, right? It's a

pity... this opportunity is missed by me."

"Leave aside this, what is the last half of the notice?"

"Let me see," the enthusiastic crowd continued, "After careful investigation,

the Privy Council has confirmed that there are essential differences between

monsters and demons, ghosts, and monsters. The essence of the so-called

monsters is the same as that of humans. Breeding. This kind of breeding has

nothing to do with blood, birth, or feelings of anger. In view of this fact,

the Secretariat has decided to abolish all prohibitions on demons. As long as

they have not violated the law, demons should enjoy all the rights of normal

people. Anything. No one may harm him without any reason for any reason!"

This announcement plunged the scene into a brief silence, but soon, fierce

noise erupted from the crowd.

"Monsters come from life? This is... too crazy!"

"What do you mean by the bureau? According to the above, doesn't it mean that

my wife and I can give birth to a dog?"

"Dog and kennel are two different things, right."

"When the child was born, was it human or dog?"

Of course, not everyone is ignorant of it. After all, this announcement was

issued by the bureau, and it is unlikely to be joking about such an important

matter.

"It doesn't matter who gave birth to the demon, but it shouldn't be a problem

for the demon to be different from the other evils? The long ears floating on

the sea have stayed for so long, nothing happened."

"That's an overseas monster, how can it be compared?"

"Oh? Did you mean that my Daqi's monsters are a bit more brutal and more evil

by nature?"

"Ahem... dude, I didn't mean that."

The final word was still the enthusiastic crowd, "Wait, this announcement

seems to be written by Master Xia Fan, with his seal at the end."

Suddenly, the voice of doubt dropped.

"It turned out to be what Master Xia meant... You said it earlier!"

"Master Fu Cheng can never collude with evil, right?"

"What if he made a mistake?"

"Fart, you know that after listening to the teacher's evaluation of the

school, Master Xia knows everything about astronomy and geography, how could

he make such a mistake!"

"That's all, if you really give birth to a dog... No, the dog monster, I will

admit it."

Accompanied by various discussions and controversies, this notice was like a

stone thrown into the lake, and the waves caused by it spread throughout the

city in a very short time.

...

The only ones who have not received much influence from the outside world are

the children who are sitting in the school listening carefully.

Even in the winter when the snow was falling, the lectures were not suspended.

Thick paper windows keep out the cold wind, and the stoves placed in the four

corners of the room maintain the indoor temperature. For some children from

poor families, it is more comfortable to go to school than to stay at home.

Today's course content is the basic teaching of Qi, and the lecturer is the

new alchemist Luo Heng.

"Last time I have taught you the origin of qi and the difference between qi

and accumulation. You haven't forgotten it yet?"

"No!" everyone replied in unison. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

"Very good, so this time I will talk about the classification of Qi, and the

method of perceiving Qi."

He put on a satisfied smile, but sighed in his heart.

This is far from the alchemy career he thought.

If you are not the second batch of alchemists assigned to Jinxia, but the

first to arrive here, will you be able to gain the princess’s appreciation and

attention and reach the sky from now on?

But this thought only lasted for a moment, and Luo Heng threw it behind his

head.

He knows that he is by no means a person who is good at ability, and he has

less courage than most of his colleagues. So when there was a conflict between

the academic department and the command department, he stood on Wen Xingyuan's

side, just because the other party was more senior. Similarly, when Zhao Dahai

warned them to evacuate, he did not obey the orders of the tall alchemist and

insisted on staying in the Privy Council. Instead, he sneaked out of the Privy

Council when no one found it at night.

As a result, the Great Desolate Night appeared in Jinxia City the next day.

Only four new alchemists from the school survived, and he was one of them. And

those who chose to stay in the mansion and never surrender to Xia Fan died in

the evil attack of Sha Ye.
