The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 297 Fiefdom
That Demon Emperor Zuo is really nice, this fiefdom is quite good!

He turned into a demonic wind, soared into the sky, and overlooked the earth. With the help of the mountain patrol seal, he could see this fiefdom at a glance.

To the west is a big river, and the east bank is his fiefdom, which is five hundred miles all the way to the east.

The overall terrain is hills and plains.

The plains cover a large area, about one third of the area, and are basically close to the river bank. They are all alluvial plains with fertile soil and abundant water resources. There are large tracts of forests and - oh, there are also tracts of spiritual medicine gardens. It seems that this place has been developed long ago.

As far as the eye can see, there are quite a lot of monsters in this forest. There are three third-grade monsters alone, twenty-eight fourth-grade monsters, nearly a thousand fifth-grade monsters, about three thousand sixth-grade monsters, and as many as thirty thousand seventh-grade monsters.

They are all organized demon soldiers, and they are now gathering in an open area, waiting to be inspected and received.

In addition, there are a large number of eighth-grade goblins used for work. Yes, there is not a single ninth-grade goblin and they are not qualified to enter.

I'm afraid this fiefdom once belonged to a royal relative.

The Zuo Demon Emperor is such a good monster that Wang Wu is almost worshipping him.

That's it. Hiring people without any restrictions and welcoming talented people with open arms is what sincerity means. This is sincerity.

Rather than being a dog for the human race, it’s better to work for the Zuo Demon Emperor.

At this moment, Wang Wu was really moved. How could he have deserved this?

Looking at the northeast and southwest of the fiefdom at this time, these two places are mountainous, with peaks one after another, layer upon layer, ups and downs. The terrain is not complicated, but the scenery is definitely beautiful. No matter which angle you stand at, it is a blockbuster!

Well, I’ll look at it later, just accept it now.

After suppressing the evil wind, Wang Wu landed on the ground, still transformed into a hairy, wild, ugly and rough man. The crime of deceiving the emperor is unacceptable, so let's just stick with this style for now.

"We welcome the King!"

As soon as they landed, the three third-rank great demons led tens of thousands of demon soldiers and roared, shaking the wilderness like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. If you didn't know, you would have thought it was a show of power.

But, my king, wow, I like it.

"Get up and talk!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Very good. What are your names and duties? I am new here and don't want to deal with trivial matters. I will just talk about the important things. Let's start with the original owner of this forest."

Wang Wu picked his ears, but still felt a little uncomfortable. Haha, he is a nouveau riche, so I understand.

At this time, a third-rank demon in the center clasped his fists and said, "Reporting to the king, we were once the Heavenly Demon Guards of the Left Demon Emperor. Our names are Leopard Big Foot, Wolf Erdan, and Eagle Sanmao. We were all assigned to guard Princess Skylark in this fiefdom. Now Princess Skylark has given us all to the king. We will swear to follow the king until death!"

"Princess Skylark? How can I do this! Where is Princess Skylark? I want to go and apologize. How could I, a little demon from the mountains, dare to occupy the magpie's nest?"

Wang Wu beat his chest and stamped his feet, revealing his true feelings. This was unacceptable.

"Reporting to the king, Princess Skylark has left this place half an incense stick ago, and left a maid to handle the affairs with the king."

"Uh, Princess Skylark is truly wise and righteous...where is the maid?"

Wang Wu looked around but didn't see any maid.

As a result, the next moment, a burly ape monster with black hair all over his body walked out from behind Leopard Bigfoot. His nostrils were as big as his mouth. His arms could be used for running horses, his thighs could be used as rally tracks, and his eyes were so deep that they could suffocate people.

This, this is the maid?
Princess Skylark's maid!
It also picks its nose!
It also has bad breath!
It's still farting!
It even smiled at me!
Well, she is indeed a she-demon.

"There's nothing to connect with! Everyone, go away and don't bother me if there's nothing to do!"

Wang Wuyi jumped back swiftly, his eyes serious, righteous and inviolable, and turned away.

"My lord, are you sure you won't accept the three million buckets of spiritual energy income every day?"

The voice of this gorilla general is quite pleasant, wow!

but--

Wang Wu turned around like a whirlwind.

"How do you connect?"

"Reporting to the king, Princess Yun Que has a special status and enjoys tax exemption, but you can only enjoy the third-grade tax exemption level, so you have to pay 1.2 million dou of spiritual energy every day. In addition, there are forest management taxes, monster protection fees, and river and lake water resource use taxes. All in all, you have to spend another 400,000 dou of spiritual energy, so the net income of your fiefdom is 800,000 dou every day..."

"Wait, with 800,000 Dou spiritual energy, can I eliminate some demon soldiers?" Wang Wu was shocked.

He was granted special permission by the Demon Emperor, is a descendant of a famous family, and a hero in the war. Why does he still have to pay so much tax?

Just kidding?
"I'm sorry, my king. According to the laws of the Southern Wilderness Monster Tribe, in order to expand and cultivate the cohesion and centripetal force of the Southern Wilderness Monster Tribe and maintain its prosperity, every fiefdom king must ensure that there are no fewer than 50,000 jobs for monsters in the fiefdom! And you must provide the minimum standard of training guarantee for their daily training..."

"Just tell me how much I'll have left after deducting this part!" Wang Wu interrupted rudely!

Are you kidding me? He came here to rule the mountain and become the king, but why does it feel like he has become a beast of burden again?

"Sorry, my king, after deducting these, your daily net income is 35,0800 buckets of spiritual energy!"

"You are joking!"

"My lord, I don't have any. The main reason is that there are three third-rank heavenly demon guards in your fiefdom. According to the standard, they account for the majority. The daily cultivation standard for each of them is 50,000 buckets of spiritual energy..."

"Can I drive them away?"

"In theory, yes, but according to the law you will also need to pay a certain percentage of liquidated damages and compensation. Your Majesty, calm down. In fact, the biggest income in your fiefdom is not here, but from leading the demon soldiers to plunder the human territory. You can get at least half of the plundering income, and you don't have to pay taxes!"

The maid who looked like a gorilla general blinked her huge and deep eyes and gave Wang Wu a wink. Ugh!
"Are you sure you are not here to cause trouble for me? I strongly request that Princess Skylark change a maid for me!" Wang Wu was very angry. He felt that he must have offended Princess Skylark somewhere. Oh, what did the Zuo Demon Emperor say before? He had a daughter and asked him to think about it...

Hearing this, the gorilla maid finally showed a satisfied expression. You are a teachable boy. You finally understand!
"Then, may I ask, if I go to apologize to Princess Yunque in person, how much income can I get from my fiefdom in a day?" Wang Wu clasped his fists and asked sincerely. As the saying goes, wealth and honor cannot corrupt, and might and power cannot bend. For a little money, everything is no problem!

The gorilla maid tilted her head and observed Wang Wu carefully. After making sure that he was asking sincerely, she said, "If that's the case, your fiefdom can earn a net income of 300,000 buckets of spiritual energy a day."

"Only three hundred thousand buckets?"

Wang Wu was shocked and thought he had heard wrongly. This was a fiefdom of mountains and forests with a radius of 500 miles.

"My king, you must have made a mistake. This is the fact. The West Bank is the fief of General Tieyao, a second-rank demon. With the same size, its net income per day is only 200,000 buckets."

"Why? The taxes in the Southern Wilds are too heavy!"

Wang Wu finally felt that something was wrong. In Yushan Manor, which was only a hundred miles in radius, plus the surrounding area, which was at most three hundred miles in radius, Mrs. Yu could earn about one million buckets of spiritual energy every day after paying taxes. How come in the Southern Wilderness, which was only a few hundred thousand miles away, the gap was so big?

At this time, Leopard Foot could not help but explain in a low voice: "Reporting to the king, the spiritual essence that descends every day is decreasing, and the two demon emperors are helpless. Three thousand years ago, the spiritual essence that could be obtained from the 500-li fiefdom every day was at least 5 million buckets. A thousand years ago, the spiritual essence that could be obtained from the 500-li fiefdom every day was 4 million buckets. Now, the income is only 3 million buckets."

"The situation becomes more and more serious as we head south. That's why the demons from the South Sea have all come ashore over the past few years. The Southern Wasteland and the South Sea are almost becoming one family. There's a reason for this."

"On the contrary, in the areas occupied by humans, the amount of spiritual essence dropped is almost twice that of the demon race."

"So now, everyone is thinking about counterattacking the Great Wilderness and taking back the land and forests that were snatched away by humans!" Wolf Erdan also said viciously.

"That's right, take us to plunder the human race. The human race is the richest and has the most money. They don't lack spiritual essence at all. However, we are limited by spiritual essence and cannot grow stronger. If we continue like this, the demon race will perish sooner or later!"

Diao Sanmao’s remarks were to the point and thought-provoking!
That's it!

Wang Wu suddenly had a feeling, could the descent of Ling Yun be controlled artificially?

Well, it’s hard to say what’s behind this.

Thinking of this, Wang Wu looked at the gorilla maid again and asked solemnly, "I wonder what Princess Skylark wants me to do?"

"It's simple. Marry it and make sure you give birth to five children. Then it can support you in becoming the Right Demon Emperor of the Southern Wasteland in five hundred years!"

"Ah?" Wang Wu was stunned. Is it that simple and direct? Can such a thing be said directly?
"This is not appropriate!"

"What's wrong with that? The Right Demon Emperor is almost dead. He will surely die in 500 years. The Southern Wasteland cannot be without a Right Demon Emperor. We have to choose the best one. You, Xiong Wu, are the direct descendant of the Xiong Xiong Demon Emperor and the great hero of this battle. I support you to be the Right Demon Emperor of the Southern Wasteland. What's wrong with that?"

"you--"

Wang Wu sucked in a breath of cold air and took three steps back. This maid who looked like General Orangutan was actually Princess Skylark. Damn it, he just criticized a mere maid. What a sin!
"Hmph! You figured it out, Xiong Wu, let me tell you..." The gorilla general, no, the gorilla princess pressed forward step by step. Wang Wu retreated cowardly. Just when he felt that his chastity was in danger, a cold voice finally came from a distance.

"Sister, stop messing around."

Hearing the voice, the gorilla princess transformed into a delicate little girl of seven or eight years old. She made a face at Wang Wu and flew away.

A few seconds later, a serious maid who was about to cry came running over and knelt down to apologize without saying a word.

But the owner of the previous voice did not show up.

"Get up, let's keep it simple. Just tell me how much spiritual essence I can earn every day."

"Reporting to the king, Princess Skylark said that if the king is eager to practice, he can get 500,000 buckets of spiritual energy every day. After deducting the income from the fiefdom, the remaining part will be made up by her."

"But I don't want to marry it. I already have a wife." Wang Wu refused directly. It didn't matter if he was offended. He would seize the time to practice in seclusion next. Even if he could only earn 35,000 points of spiritual energy every day, it would be enough to make do with it.

"This - I cannot make the decision. Please spare my life, my king!" The maid was frightened and burst into tears.

At this moment, a faint laugh reached my ears.

"Xiong Wu, why do you have to embarrass my maid? My father didn't really pass down the order, and I just value your talent. Besides, I fought alongside you before, so you have to acknowledge this friendship. Anyway, it's up to you whether you want it or not, forget it!"

"I will leave my maid with you as the chief steward."
