The Immortal Cultivation Game Has Come True Chapter 186 – Card Store Glitch, Ingot Exchange for Merits?

Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Card Store Glitch, Ingot Exchange for Merits?

“All dear ministers, please rise!”

“Thank you, the king!”

The ministers loudly responded with salutations.

Speaking of which.

These ministers in the court were originally the scholars, old gentlemen, merchants, etc., who were brought in by Gentleman Bai She and Black Bear Essence when the Black Wind Town Government was established.

Compared to other countries, the approach taken by Black Wind Country may seem a bit childish, but it was a necessary step, considering the country’s humble origins as a small frontier town sandwiched between two nations.

“My dear ministers, our newly established Black Wind Country faces a bleak situation in terms of both population and economy.”

Gentleman Bai She said solemnly.

Speaking of which.

He was not interested in worldly power, but if he wanted to achieve the Destiny Golden Dragon body, he had to develop Black Wind Country.

“Do any of you have any good suggestions for the development of Black Wind Country?” Gentleman Bai She asked with a focused voice.

Upon hearing this,

the ministers looked at each other, and finally, an elderly man with a clean white beard stepped forward and bowed.

“Your Majesty, I believe that the most pressing matter at hand is to address the issue of stability concerning the large influx of people into Black Wind Country.”

“Although every person has been granted one acre of farmland, the spring ploughing season has passed, and the second season of summer ploughing has not yet arrived. The gap in between is difficult to manage!”

As soon as this statement was made,

the ministers began to nod in agreement.

The old man who had spoken had previously been the town head of Black Wind Town. After the establishment of the new Yamen, he became the Minister of History.

“What my dear minister said is reasonable!”

Gentleman Bai She nodded appreciatively, then turned his gaze to the other ministers and continued to ask, “Do any of you have any other suggestions? Feel free to bring them up!”

Seeing this,

“Your Majesty, I believe we should focus on education, as the sage once said…”

“Your Majesty, I suggest that we provide porridge relief to the people from the government or temporarily lend them food….”

“Your Majesty, I believe we should take full advantage of our geographical location by gathering fish and refining salt, and actively engage in trade with the surrounding countries.”

“Your Majesty…”

Inside the main hall, the ministers spoke one by one, with most of them drawing on their own experiences to express their ideas.

A moment later.

The main hall became quiet once again.

“My dear ministers, whether providing porridge, lending grain, promoting education, or trade, all of your suggestions make sense!”

First, Gentleman Bai She encouraged everyone with a sentence, and then he continued, “However, I think that the most important thing at this moment is…road construction!”

Road construction?

Upon hearing these two words, the ministers were confused. Before they could react, they heard a famous saying that would resonate throughout the world.

“If you want to be wealthy, build roads first!”

Gentleman Bai She said solemnly.

This statement was something he learned from Sir, who also explained the advantages of building roads first and why it is important.

“My ministers, the saying ‘if you want to be wealthy, build roads first’ is not something I came up with on my own. It dates back to the ancient days of the Pre-Qin Dynasty when the cutting of canals led to the prosperity of half of the country.”

“Moreover, although our Black Wind Country has high-yielding divine seeds bestowed by Sir, and we have no shortage of food, we cannot simply give it to the newly-arrived people for free, so as not to encourage laziness.”

“Therefore, I plan to…substitute work for relief, and let the newcomers invest in road construction and infrastructure before the next farming season.”

“In addition, I intend to heavily promote the development of the Commerce Department by using national funds to establish cement and brick factories….”

Afterward,

he explained the so-called ‘state-owned’ factories, private trade, and various other concepts that were difficult to understand for the people of this era.

Speaking of which.

Gentleman Bai She’s understanding of these things was due to his daily interactions with Sir, as well as to the face that he had specifically consulted with him after the founding of the country.

Upon hearing these words.

From the initial state of confusion, the officials gradually became enlightened, one by one, and were suddenly amazed by the revelations.

You should know.

Before the founding of Black Wind Country, they were nothing more than local gentry, or perhaps merchants and businessmen, and they had never heard such astonishing words.

“Long live the King! We salute you with utmost admiration!”

“The King is wise! We salute you with utmost admiration!”

One by one, the ministers bowed down, chanting slogans from their mouths, but not to flatter, but to genuinely admire from their hearts.

Just like that.

The first court meeting of Black Wind Country set the tone for the future development of the entire kingdom.

Spring comes and goes, and another year passes.

Time flies in the cultivation, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Black Wind Mountain Peak.

A wave invisible to the naked eye descended from the nine heavens, falling onto the body of Xuanqing, who was seated in closed-door cultivation.

Feeling the energy fluctuation hovering around, the God Soul attached to the Luck Jade Seal returned to the physical body.

[Ding! +1000 Innate Merits]

“Hoo~”

“Innate Merits… the salary from the Heavenly Court, this… another year has passed.”

Xuanqing suddenly opened his eyes and took a long, clear breath.

Looking at the Innate Merits in front of him, he suddenly had a strange idea in his heart.

“The Gathering Qi Bead, filled with incense, can be uploaded to the store.”

“So., does that mean that as long as you store these innate merits in something, you can upload it to the store too, then., exchange it for Ingots?”

Thinking of the possibility of such a ‘loophole,’

Xuanqing couldn’t help but feel a little excited.

Moving in his heart.

In his hand appeared a fist-sized, semi-transparent crystal stone shining with a faint blue light.

That was… a Spiritual Crystal!

The so-called Spiritual Crystal was a crystal stone containing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. If placed in some cultivation novels, it would be the legendary Spirit Stone, only that the Spiritual Crystal was more advanced.

“To accommodate the innate merits, the Spiritual Crystal must first release the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy inside, then transform it into top-grade Gathering Qi Bead.”

Xuanqing held the Spiritual Crystal in his hand.

The method of refining the Spiritual Crystal into a Gathering Qi Bead was learned during a previous chat with Five Plagues. It is said that the immortals of the Heavenly Court mostly do this.

“Go!”

With the immense mana of the Qi Flower, Xuanqing forcibly stripped the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy from the crystal.

Then, imprinting the ‘Gathering Qi’ formation on the crystal using the method of refining Gathering Qi Bead, it can now be used to store the innate merits.

In just a short moment,

A crystal stone that could store Innate Merits was completed.

[Small Qi Storing Crystal Stone]: A strange crystal stone that can be used to store Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, netherworld energy, Human Merits, and Innate Merits.

“So, this object is called the Qi Storing Crystal Stone!” Xuanqing marveled.

Then,

With a thought,

He manipulated the Gathering Qi Crystal Stone, stuffing all the Innate Merits given by the Heavenly Court into this small crystal stone.

“Upload this item to the mall!”
