Violators of the Doomsday Game.

Chapter 534: Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism share the world, and money is needed to pave the way

In the deserted alley of the Bishui Town Yamen, the head of the village collected the house deeds and land deeds, and then took out the tightly wrapped silver from his arms.

"Here, the money and goods have been paid." The head of the village couldn't stop smiling.

Although he not only paid the writing fee but also an additional 150 cents for property tax, this was nothing to the head of the village.

Qi Sui'an looked at the package and casually stuffed it into his arms.

This time it could really be stuffed in. Fifteen taels of silver could still be put in.

Then take the silver and go to a more prosperous place through Bishui Town.

Therefore, it is necessary to find a caravan, otherwise it would not be easy to travel on your own.

Don’t even think about the map. This thing won’t be easily passed on to others. You can only buy it from specific people and it can’t be sold publicly.

But at this price, fifteen taels of silver is definitely not enough.

The starting amount is at least one hundred taels.

"Old Qi, it's not safe for you to carry fifteen taels of silver on you. You'd better find a place to buy some."

"Be careful not to get robbed." After suppressing his joy, the head of the village also gave Qi Sui'an an instruction.

What he had on him was the deed, so it didn't matter if someone robbed it.

This thing comes in two copies, and the other copy is in the government office. It will be useless even if it is stolen.

But the money on Qi Suian was different. There was no name written on it, so if it was really stolen, it would not be easy to get it back.

"I know, it's not a big problem. With my physique, I can easily beat two people by myself." Qi Sui'an said with a smile.

He knew very well that the headman was secretly reminding him that he was being watched.

Fifteen taels is a huge sum of money even in Bishui Town.

In particular, the purchasing power of silver is far greater than that of copper coins.

In fact, as long as you don't fight head-on, you should have no problem getting rid of the opponent by just running away without thinking.

But Qi Sui'an is different. He has no plans to return to Qingzhu Village, so the follow-up will be more troublesome.

"Just be aware of what's going on. I'll go back first." The head of the village said this and left.

In the town, I just walked at a normal speed, but once I left the town, I ran for my life.

He is not afraid of being robbed, but it would be uncomfortable to be beaten.

Since we are going to rob, we must treat everyone equally.

Qi Sui'an walked out of the alley slowly and glanced back at the two burly men following him.

He didn't dare to take action directly in public, but his eyes rolled around.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t rob, but you can blackmail and commit fraud.

Anyway, they are just outsiders, and as local bosses, they are not afraid at all.

It just requires some reasons, and it cannot be done in front of the government office.

Seeing this, Qi Sui'an turned around and turned into the alley.

The two men looked at each other and smiled disdainfully.

The two of them could naturally guess that the other side wanted to get rid of them, but two fists could not beat four hands.

Not to mention that this is not the first time I have done this kind of work.

So I hurried in.

A minute later, Qi Sui'an walked out of the alley slowly.

The two people didn't die, but they were almost dead. They basically said goodbye to their lives and there was no chance of recovery.

People who are paralyzed from the neck down or disabled can live better than them.

He was not worried that anyone would cause trouble for him, and after some inquiries, he soon found a caravan that was willing to take him away.

All expenses are included, and he can be taken to Guiyun City for only five taels of silver, and they will set off at noon.

The journey takes about fifteen days, and during the journey, we have to stop in many towns to replenish supplies and sell goods.

The caravan has guards, cooks, doctors and other personnel, so the security is still very high.

However, the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, Qi Sui'an cannot sit in a carriage and can only walk.

Fortunately, he doesn't care much about these things.

"The world has been very unstable lately, and going out to adventure is not a good idea." The caravan chef chatted with Qi Sui'an.

After all, there was one more person, and Qi Suian had to talk to the other person himself.

As for purchasing, everyone does their own purchasing, and the chef buys his own ingredients.

"Brother Wu, you are knowledgeable and experienced. Can you tell me about it?" Qi Sui'an followed up the other party's words and asked.

"I heard that the dispute among the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism is becoming more and more serious, and it has already affected the imperial court."

"It is said that the solar eclipse and the earth dragon's reversal not long ago were the reasons. The current emperor intends to undermine the Taoist lineage." The chef said with a worried look on his face.

Qi Sui'an had heard about the dispute between Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism for the first time, and then asked, "What are Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism? Why haven't I heard of them?"

"Hey, Brother Qi, where did you come from? How come you don't even know this?" The chef laughed when Qi Sui'an asked him this.

"I came from the mountain village of Qingzhu Village next to Bishui Town, so I wanted to go out and try my luck. Otherwise, I would die in the countryside without knowing anything in my life."

"Not only will you not make much money, but you will also die in misery." Qi Sui'an responded casually.

However, the chef shook his head: "At least he lived a long life."

"It's not as safe out there as in your village, where you just have to pay taxes and grain." "There will be a lot to consider after you leave."

Seeing that the other party had changed the subject, Qi Sui'an quickly pulled it back: "Brother Wu, you should talk about Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. After all, I have paid the money, and I can't go back to the mountains and continue farming."

The chef glanced at Qi Sui'an and said, "I don't know either, but the court has always said that the world is in chaos. It's probably because of the dispute over the orthodoxy."

"As for what Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are, they are actually scholars, monks and Taoists."

"These people all hold power. I've seen an old Taoist priest take action before. He was truly invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire."

"Don't even think about it, scholar. I'm afraid you can't even recognize a word."

"Monks and Taoists can give it a try."

"It should be possible to burn incense and worship Buddha and donate some money, but if you want to enter the sect, you need fate."

"Don't ask me what fate is, I know it too." The chef spread his hands, indicating that this was all he knew: "The three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are so noble that ordinary people like us cannot see them."

"Are there the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in Guiyun City?" Qi Sui'an continued to ask.

The chef thought for a moment and said, "Yes, both."

"Many people want to join the sect, but it's already good enough if only one person out of a hundred can enter."

"If you can read, you can take the entrance exam to the academy in the spring."

"Compared to Buddhism and Taoism, Confucian academies only require you to pass the entrance exam. As for whether you can rank on the list in the imperial examination, that is another matter."

"Only those who pass the imperial examination can be considered true Confucianists. Otherwise, students in this academy will not have to pay tuition fees in the first year, and from the second year onwards, no poor people can afford to study."

"Also, the supply of pens, inkstones, books, etc. is limited. If you want extra, you have to pay for it yourself."

Hearing this, Qi Sui'an also responded: "Studying costs money, what about Buddhism? Does it cost money too?"

"Of course." The chef continued, "How can we carry out the ceremonies and rituals without money?"

"Otherwise, why would temples open up so many channels to accept donations? Of course, it's because they need money, too."

Qi Sui'an thought that if silver was also used, wouldn't the monetary system collapse?
So he continued to ask.

"If not silver, what else can we use? You're quite interesting." The chef found Qi Sui'an's question a little funny and could only say that he was worthy of being a man from the mountains.

I really don't understand anything.

Then he joked: "You don't think that the current emperor uses a golden hoe to work in the fields."

Just his words left Qi Sui'an speechless.

"I think so, and the queen has to eat two white flour buns." Qi Sui'an answered the other party seriously.

This made the chef laugh so hard that his back bent.

Fortunately, she recovered quickly: "The emperor doesn't go to the fields, and the queen doesn't eat white steamed buns."

"Don't say this again. If someone hears it, I'll punish you for disrespect."

"It will take at least ten strokes of the cane. After that, you won't even be able to walk."

The chef reminded Qi Sui'an that anyone who made irresponsible comments on state affairs or spoke ill of the princes and nobles would be subject to prosecution if the people did not report them.

But there are many different people in the world, so reporting such things is not impossible.

"Tsk, the outside world is so strict that we can't even say a word." Qi Sui'an also complained, but it was also normal.

After all, he could sense that the imperial court's control over public opinion was very strict, just like the solar eclipse and earthquake he had caused before, which he was able to directly blame on the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, the court itself would definitely be the one to take the blame.

Of course, it is also possible that the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have indeed been fighting each other, and the impact they have caused is not only ongoing but also extremely huge.

That's why it's so easy to pass the buck.

The two chatted some more, and Qi Sui'an got more information from the other party.

Then he left, thinking about the so-called Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.

The main reason is that there are many contradictions in the chef's words.

The simplest point is the issue of currency. Extraordinary people and ordinary people share the same monetary system.

It is estimated that there is still value only at the bottom level. If it really goes up, the currency inflation will be very scary.

This has also led to poverty, backwardness and even lack of circulation among the middle and lower classes.

Once it becomes circulated, one liter of rice might cost five hundred thousand taels of silver.

With the energy level of this world, the amount of resources that the strong people standing at the top need to consume in a day is absolutely astronomical.

Resources cannot be created out of thin air, they can only be revealed later.

Then in the end, the only ones left to pay the costs are the common people, who else could it be?

So isolation is the best solution.

"If we manipulate the monetary system, it won't be difficult to bring down the imperial court."

"But the data and intelligence are insufficient, and my own power is not enough to achieve such a large leverage."

If you want to use leverage, you can't rely on financial resources, you need power.

As long as one has enough power, one or two ounces of silver can leverage hundreds of millions of silver.

"I hope Guiyun City won't let me down."

There is not much difference between villages and towns, but the city level can directly contact the extraordinary, which means that the city level is the main means of ruling of the court.
