Hybrid Spiritual Plant Cultivation

Chapter 170 The Beginning of Rules

Different from Chen Jing.

Chen Jing had no awareness of being a true disciple. He did not live in the cave mansion, did not care about the sect's property, and was often not seen at the school.

He goes back to his hometown every few days and works hard on his own little piece of land.

Ying Huiyin, who is also a true disciple, is very dedicated.

Since entering the palace, he has spent most of his time in the academy, concentrating on improving his skills in talismans and formations.

After this success in making the talisman, he returned to Anning Prefecture.

Passing by a village on the way, I saw a group of people gathered together, making a mess.

"Hit someone, hit someone!"

“This is my tree!”

"Shameless thing!"

The woman's screams pierced through the crowd and reached her ears.

The two groups of people each held a weapon, staring at each other with swords drawn.

Ying Huiyin jumped down from the phoenix that was transformed from a magic instrument, her white clothes fluttering in the wind. It seemed as if there were invisible stairs under her feet supporting her as she landed among the crowd.

The surrounding people immediately dispersed, leaving an open space.

"Why are you arguing?"

she asked with a frown.

But no one present dared to speak, and those who were not very involved took a few steps back.

The two women who were left behind showed fear and shook their heads.

"Nothing, nothing."

An appearance of trying to keep things peaceful.

"Muramasa is here."

Ying Huiyin said coldly with a blank expression on her face.

"Muramasa...was here just now."

Everyone looked and saw that Muramasa, who had been nearby not long ago, was now riding on the back of a donkey and quietly leaving.

Ying Huiyin threw a talisman to Muramasa, and a strong wind swept in, blowing Muramasa and the donkey back.

"Please spare my life, my lady, please spare my life, it's none of my business!"

Muramasa fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Speak clearly."

"Yes Yes……"

Muramasa quickly explained the whole story like pouring out beans.

Ying Huiyin had thought that this incident, which was likely to lead to a fight involving dozens of people, must be quite serious. But after hearing this, he was left speechless.

To put it simply, the Liang family wanted to expand the threshing ground, and their neighbor, the Liang family, felt that their territory was encroached upon and was dissatisfied with this.

They argued with each other for a long time, until today, when the Liang family, who were expanding the farm, cut down a tree planted between the two families. The two families started to curse, tear, fight, call for help, and confront each other...

That's all.

"call……"

Yingying replied to suppress his emotions.

Unlike Chen Jing, she did not go to the countryside often and was not aware that fights and group fights were common in the countryside.

The reason for fighting is very simple. You picked up the stones at my doorstep, so you can have a fight. After a fight, you can just fight again. After a fight, you can just fight in a group.

Whether or not a fight breaks out is completely random and depends entirely on the mood of the parties involved.

She also learned that the old Liang family and the young Liang family were relatives...

"Deal with it yourself."

Ying Huiyin was too lazy to pay any more attention to it, so he called Bai Luan out and left.

Returned to Anning Mansion.

She told Chen Jing about this experience.

"The common people in the mountains are not like the new towns under your rule. They are barbaric and ignorant, which makes me irritated."

Ying Huiyin stared at Chen Jing, still displeased.

"Junior Sister Huiyin has a good temper. She is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If it were another young master or young lady, if they were impatient, those unruly people might have lost their lives."

Chen Jing smiled.

"Still laughing."

Ying Huiyin sounded a little annoyed.

In fact, she seldom returned to Anning Mansion in the past six months. In addition to the heavy workload of her spiritual practice, she also avoided government affairs.

At first, I wanted to do the right thing and took on the task from Taoist Yun Ting.

Although the task was completed successfully, after the new law was issued, various problems always occurred during its implementation, which made her very upset and helpless.

"I later asked the village why they didn't resolve the matter according to the new law, and they just said it was a small matter and there was no need."

"The legal solution is only an ideal state. It is normal that it cannot be implemented. We have solved the problem of having laws and not having laws. The phenomenon you mentioned is the latter problem. We will deal with it step by step."

Chen Jing comforted.

"Ok?"

“Before, most of the Anning Prefecture had no written laws, but in reality, they do exist.”

Seeing Ying Huiyin looking at him inquiringly, Chen Jing continued speaking.

The law in the past was the law of local landlords.

The provincial capital has its own rules, the county town has its own rules, and the towns, villages, and every family, big or small, has its own rules.

Every place has a boss who makes the decisions. Whatever the boss says is what goes on. Most of the time, there is no need for explicit rules, because explicit rules are very unfriendly to the boss, and he will lose the right to interpret some rules.

But the rules still exist in a way that is accepted by everyone and form inertia.

"We intend to replace the original ones with our own rules. It's normal to be resisted... Don't think the new town is good. That's because it was built from scratch. Naturally, what I say is what it is. In fact, apart from writing out my rules clearly, I am no different from those big and small families."

"What to do?"

"Just take them to play together."

Chen Jing said.

The forces within Suizhou are formed into layers and there is little interference between them. The main reason is that they cannot play together.

The Qingnang Sect only wants talents from powerful families, and will basically not interfere as long as the powerful families do not cause public outrage.

The powerful families only want the supply of resources from their vassals and do not interfere in how their vassals are managed.

The vassal families follow the example of their superiors and ensure that they are supplied with what their superiors require, and they can do with the rest as they please.

If there is nothing to pursue, this structure is actually quite stable. After all, the power held by the upper class cannot be resisted by the lower class. Each class has clearly divided their needs and interests, so there is naturally no need to come up with a set of rules to frame everyone together.

"I can't play together..."

Ying Huiyin understood, nodded, thought about it, and understood its meaning.

Just everyone playing together.

There must be a set of rules of the game that everyone abides by.

Otherwise, once the rules are released, no one will pay attention to them.

Then he reacted.

"Your Agricultural Promotion Office?"

"Yes, the Agricultural Promotion Institute is an example of playing together, but that's not enough. We need to extend our tentacles little by little and let all the big and small forces get on board with us."

"But I have no other advantage."

Ying replied with some hesitation.

In fact, she herself had thought of this truth, but she didn't think about it in detail.

If you want everyone to play together, there must be benefits.

Chen Jing's agricultural promotion office shook the authority of local families, but offered sufficient benefits, so it encountered little resistance.

Just scare them and they will obey.

Because those family heads can give an explanation to the interest groups behind them, things can be done.

Otherwise, even if they don't resist openly, they will do all kinds of disgusting things secretly, let alone play together.

Can Ying Huiyin give such benefit?
impossible.

These are the only resources she has at her disposal.

Without game rewards, no one will play the game.

If you don’t stretch out your hand to ask for more, it is already Amitabha.

"Could it be that you have a solution?"

Ying Huiyin's eyes were suddenly filled with anticipation.

She couldn't do it, but she had confidence in Chen Jing, who would always come up with a feasible solution.

"I happen to have a new project here, and it coincides with what we have been planning recently. Before I asked you to come, I also asked Master, and he allowed us to do it."

"Hmm? You asked me to go back to An Ning Mansion just for this matter?"

"That's about right. In addition to extending some rules to lower levels, it can also solve some public security problems. Look at these rural folks, who gather and fight all day long. It has a very bad influence. It's better to vent their energy in a useful place. Follow me."

Chen Jing said this and walked in one direction.

Ying Huiyin, who was following behind him, soon saw a newly built temple.

There are four words written on the temple.

——Net Tea Temple.
