Bored, I want to see rivers of blood!

Chapter 55: The Incomplete Tool

"So, what should we do next?"

Although he already knew that he was going to be a capitalist, Qianye was still very confused. After all, he was just a thug. He only had a little political experience, which was far inferior to Zhongli, a seasoned veteran. And Wendy slapped his forehead. He was really confused by Qianye...

I have forgotten what I just said. Uh... I think I have forgotten it too, because those words are too boring.

"Primitive accumulation, opening factories. Draw big pictures for the Seven Stars, and then attract countless people to invest. Let the noble families spit out all the blood they sucked, and then conduct a final liquidation. Confiscate the property and execute the nine clans..."

Seeing Zhongli's murderous intent, Wendy hid behind Qianye in fear. After all, Zhongli had just heard what Qianye had said. And what humans might do, all of this made the old man so angry that he had nowhere to vent...

Now, he simply wanted to kill people to relieve stress. He didn't need to kill them himself, just seeing the series of numbers was enough. And now, after getting all of Qianye's belongings, that is, more than 90 million Mora, which is not a small amount. It is enough to use it as an investment for primitive accumulation...

Zhongli decided to buy a piece of land first, and then open a factory. Attract workers and promote faster development. Temporarily put aside the management of the people, and wait until those humanoid creatures continue to suck blood... This is the first step...

The second step is to find a few Yakshas to lead the people in rebellion when the people are exploited and oppressed to the point where they can no longer accept it. Of course, the genealogy of these humanoid creatures must also be recorded. Then they can be killed directly by clearing the genealogy...

The last step is to directly carry out large-scale rectification as the emperor. At the same time, restrict the behavior of merchants and establish better regulatory departments. Implement a more advanced system...

Zhongli named this set of plans the Three-Step Plan, and all actions will be based on this standard as a guideline.

Soon, Zhongli got a piece of land from a noble family by talking. He just relied on his profound wisdom and a little bit of big talk. He first told the people over there what he was going to do, and then he gave them a strong shock with Qianye's fierce eyes...

They felt that with Qianye's decisive and murderous temperament, he must be an unknown immortal, so Zhongli, who had the support of an immortal, would naturally have the right to speak.

Why is it like this? Actually, it is very simple, because Zhongli, Qianye and others still have to go out to mix with their original appearance. So they temporarily changed their faces. After losing his height, Qianye still relied on the temperament that he had experienced countless tragic battles to attract more attention.

Zhongli was simple. He easily changed his calm temperament into a rather eccentric one. In addition, the future he described and the money-making projects made people think he was a cunning businessman at first glance.

Wendy's words, although changed in appearance. But, she still has the same lively personality as before. Now it is a parliamentary system composed of three people, and they call this behavior the Three Kings Council.

…………

"Mr. Zhongli, you are really good at this. You can get such a piece of land just by talking. Should we do something else next?"

Listening to Qianye's words, Zhongli smiled and pushed his monocle up and said

"The next thing is easy. We just need to mortgage this borrowed land to the bank. Then we can use the borrowed money to open a factory. After that, we can go to Qixing to recognize the legitimacy and start making the first profit."

Wendy just listened to the two people's speeches, and he just felt that now the two people are really insidious. These noble families... I wish you will fall soon. At least you will be happier than now...

…………

Soon, the plan was carried out as Zhongli had designed. With the 90 million Mora obtained by Qianye as the original capital, Zhongli quickly found a construction team to build the factory.

Of course, Zhongli was not idle while the factory was being built. He immediately kept hitting Qianye's head with his hands, trying to make him recall more memories of his past life. Just like hitting a TV, he kept hitting Qianye's head with the right amount of force.

Seeing this scene, Wendy felt a little sympathetic to Qianye. If the fight continued like this, Qianye would definitely suffer from Alzheimer's disease one day. But after Qianye came up with something, Wendy was the first to stop Zhongli's abuse of minors...

"Liyue should still be using traditional earth-woven cloth, right?"

Listening to Qianye's speech, Zhongli realized that a useful tool would soon be available. I wonder what it would be to improve productivity? I hope that tool will be more useful...

"Indeed, we are still using native woven cloth. What do you think?"

Qianye didn't say anything, he just took the paper and pen. After constant revisions, soon... a loom design with a rough outline and operating functions appeared in front of everyone, which provided a fairly large reference template. As long as they made various modifications according to such a template...

Such a machine can still be made... But Zhongli is not good at completing it. Looking at such a machine, Zhongli was in trouble. It's like Wendy is a bard who knows all kinds of music, and Zhongli is an idler who knows all kinds of plans. Neither of them can complete this machine...

"This machine is almost five times more efficient than the original loom. And by gathering a considerable number of people and assigning them to their posts..."

"The productivity provided is quite huge, and it can directly crush those backward machines."

Listening to Qianye's description of this tool, Zhongli looked embarrassed. He just said in embarrassment

"But we have no way to complete this tool. So isn't it useless?"

Listening to Zhongli's words, Qianye's face froze. He hadn't even considered this problem. He must have been used to making musical instruments before. He was too used to having an all-round musician around to complete the songs and instruments. Now Zhongli was good at weapon casting.

The second is the ability to manage, and the third is the ability to fight, jade, and art appreciation. All of these have nothing to do with this machine, that is to say. He has no way to complete this tool...

Then...didn't I get hit so many times in vain?

Thinking of this, Qianye closed his eyes in despair, and then changed his mind. He had no way to make those tools, but he could make progress in policies and other ways.

So he said something to Zhongli.

Chapter 56: Studying Medicine Can't Save Liyue

"That is to say, we don't have the foundation for the industrial revolution. In other words, we don't have the ability to replace manual labor with machines, right?"

"Yes, in order to realize the first industrial revolution, a foundation is needed. And the foundation is that machines replace ordinary manpower, allowing manpower to be more liberated."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Wendy was speechless. How could anyone accept that this capitalist's business collapsed before it even started? Listening to Qianye's theory, Zhongli began to think.

Starting with the loom, they can complete the process and then provide the beginning of the industrial revolution. And now, what they lack is the foundation. Master Liuyun Jiefeng may be able to provide a series of technical assistance, and then they can complete this beginning...

If there is no assistance in this area, then what is the point of talking about technical assistance and support? In the end, you will only get a mess, so it is time to start other help.

Soon, Zhongli summoned all the immortals. He told them his thoughts, Qianye's theory, and the current situation of Liyue. When the immortals heard about the actions of the humanoid creatures, they were all shocked and speechless.

How could this happen? When they thought about the Liyue they were protecting in the future, their fists became stiff. Master Liuyun Jiefeng was even more angry and said bluntly:

"In order to avoid this, I suggest going directly to Liyue Harbor. We can suppress the humanoids with thunder and use skulls and Jingguan to intimidate them."

Qianye was amused when he heard what Master Liuyunjiefeng said. He had wanted to do this for a long time, but Wendy blocked his mouth at this time, making him unable to say a word and could only swallow all the words.

"I'm sorry, children don't know better. Please don't mind..."

Wendy smiled awkwardly, then pressed Qianye's head and pulled him behind the scenes. Everyone just looked at him and didn't say much. Wendy had a reason for doing so. Although Qianye's strength was not much different from the Seven Rulers of the Mortal World, he had too little experience and could easily offend people...

There was no need to offend these immortals just because of speaking frankly. More importantly... making random comments on other countries' politics would most likely cause Qianye's own country to suffer for no reason...

Zhongli saw that it was not so much Qianye who was taking care of Wendy, but Wendy who was taking care of Qianye. Qianye's martial arts skills were commendable. However, the current situation did not require a strong martial arts value.

Because this matter concerns the safety and stability of the entire Liyue. Of course they will agree. And they also hope to settle this matter as soon as possible. After all, the behavior of those humanoid creatures has become more and more excessive.

So after everyone discussed, Zhongli decided to go to Liyue Harbor tomorrow.

As for Qian Ye, he was left in Tianheng Mountain because they were afraid that he would not understand the situation and start killing first, which would alert the enemy and let the noble families get the news...

As a result, the noble families gathered their wealth and transferred it abroad. When Zhongli and others were not paying attention to them in the future, they would return to Liyue. It was like the game of guarding against thieves for a thousand days. It was impossible for people to guard against thieves all the time. There was no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days...

"Alas... now it's not my turn to discuss plans..."

On the hill to one side, Qianye could not stop sighing. The plan was not abandoned because of Qianye's absence, but became faster with the addition of Yaksha and the immortals. The immortals started the construction of the factory after changing their appearances...

After all the modifications to the machines, the factory was completed in just half a month. During this period, Zhongli, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun and others kept coming to ask Qianye to continue drawing the design. Then, when he got inspiration, he would complete it. With the joint efforts of all the immortals...

As long as Qianye had memories of something, they could make it, such as steam engines and other equipment. However, they could not make more powerful equipment, such as computers, mobile phones and other epoch-making items... Only Fontaine, Xumi, and Kanreya had the conditions to make them...

Soon, items such as looms were put into use in factories.

Zhongli took on the role of boss, and he put the loom he made into production. Because of its unique efficiency, the quality of the fabrics produced was not only guaranteed. In addition, anyone could do this, while others were still doing traditional hand-weaving...

This behavior naturally attracted the envy of countless people, and many noble family masters also saw the business opportunities in it. And the productivity that can be brought by gathering the population together, because it is a collective situation.

The benefits were redistributed once again, and the workers were able to obtain far more benefits than before. The Seven Stars of Liyue saw this and felt extremely satisfied. Soon, countless factories were opened in the suburbs of Liyue...

However, not every factory is the same as the one opened by Zhongli and his team. Because they saw the benefits and the wealth created by the collective. The disadvantages brought by the feudal system were vividly displayed, and countless ordinary people became contract workers...

What is bonded labor?

To put it simply, it is a different kind of slavery, where a father or mother sells their children to a factory as slaves. They only get a tiny amount of money, and basically work non-stop in the factory.

This continued for half a year, and the plan designed by Zhongli had gone awry. The humanoids ate so much that their mouths were full of fat that their bodies became extremely plump...

…………

In the Bubulu, Xu Liang felt speechless as he watched the people working without a smile every day. He couldn't understand why all this happened. The Emperor clearly came forward to plan policies every year. But what was wrong with the people now?

"Doctor Xu Liang, how is my health?"

"If you take your medicine on time and get more rest, your body can still be saved."

After listening to Xu Liang's words, the worker changed his mind and shook his head.

"It looks like it still won't work. I have to keep working."

"Why? It can be cured as long as you rest on time..."

Listening to Xu Liang's words, the worker smiled bitterly, shook his head and continued

"If I take a break like this, what will my wife do? My children won't be able to afford food. The price of a bag of rice is now more than ten times more expensive than before..."

So, I can’t rest. I have to keep working hard…”

“It doesn’t matter even if your body collapses?”

The worker didn't say anything, he just turned his head and left Bubulu. Then, Xu Liang continued to receive patients who came because of fatigue or various reasons. The reasons they gave were similar...

At night, Xu Liang looked at the still bustling Liyue Harbor and fell silent. But in the end, he touched Changsheng's head and said

"Learning medicine won't save the people of Liyue. I must start a resistance!"

(To be continued in the next chapter)

Chapter 57: Familiar Jingguan

Another half year has passed, and resistance forces have begun to appear in various places in Liyue. They are the uprising forces led by Xu Liang of Bubulu. At the same time, this uprising army includes some of the Seven Stars who can't stand Liyue. As well as the people of Wangsheng Hall, Wanmin Hall, etc....

As for why this happened? The answer is simple. Businessmen value profit the most. A considerable number of the Seven Stars and Eight Sects only care about profit, while the rest have some conscience. They are unwilling to associate with them and want to change and curb the current situation...

However, the noble families used their own interests to coerce several Seven Stars. Under such circumstances, the right to speak of some Seven Stars was no longer so important. Under such circumstances, a resistance army suddenly appeared...

The Seven Stars, who couldn't stand it any longer, decided to change the current situation, so they all marched towards the rebel army.

…………

"Well... Mr. Zhongli's plan should have succeeded. After all, I can see the terrible situation in Liyue now."

Looking at the still brightly lit Liyue Harbor in the distance, Qianye muttered to himself. During this month, Qianye just kept doing simple training. For example, climbing mountains, climbing several mountains at a time. He also slaughtered the monsters in Liyue during this process.

Qianye met five Yakshas in Liyue, namely, General Yingda of Fire Rat, General Fa Nan of Razor Scroll, General Mi Nu of Heart Monkey, General Xiao of Golden Roc, and General Fu She of Teng Snake. Among them, Fu She had the best relationship with Qianye because he was open-minded and not particular about details.

After seeing Qianye's strength, he often fought with him in the name of sparring. Of course, he was facing an immortal. His strength was also very strong, so Qianye naturally fought with him with all his strength without using elemental power.

The battle naturally ended with Qianye's victory. After struggling for a long time, Qianye wanted to fight all the Yakshas at once. Only in this way could he improve his own strength. Of course, this proposal was rejected by them...

Qianye could only continue to carry out simple training with great disappointment, while constantly slaughtering the monsters in Liyue. Although the remnants of this group of demons were stronger than ordinary monsters, they could not be compared with the followers of the gods after all...

The days passed one after another, and soon there was news from Wendy.

"We're ready to close the net, and it's time to give you a chance to take action."

"Um...is it finally my turn?"

With the arrival of Wendy, the end of the noble families was announced. Qianye quickly joined the rebel army formed by Xu Liang to fight against the private armies of the noble families in Liyue, but he still held back during the battle.

The fate that these humanoid creatures deserved most was a public trial, where they would die. Private armies and the like should also receive a similar fate. Killing them one by one would not satisfy Qianye's appetite.

Soon, the rebels broke through the doors of several aristocratic families. They dragged out one after another the scumbags who had been eating the people's blood and sweat, and looked at the rebels who were so angry that they could not speak. The master still shouted loudly:

"You bunch of mud-legged people, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't even know where to play in the mud right now. Without me, where would you find a job? How dare you do this to me!"

After hearing what the old man said, Qianye couldn't hold back any longer. He patted his forehead and slowly walked out of the crowd, looking at all the rebels around him and the old men who were held on the ground, and said with a smile:

"Ah, yes, yes, your contribution is great. So you don't mind if I make you even greater?"

"For example, I want to use you to build a wonder, such as the Jingguan? I have always wanted to try to build a Jingguan with human heads. How about you be the first one?"

Hearing Qianye's words, the old man was frightened to death. The air was filled with the smell of urine... and such things were happening in various places in Liyue.

…………

There were no guests at the invitation platform. However, all the immortals arrived at the same time. The Rock King Emperor turned into a dragon and sat on the platform. The masters who were held on the ground kept begging for mercy.

“Emperor…Emperor, my great grandfather once participated in the Demon God War. My family has dedicated everything to Liyue. Please spare my life…”

"Emperor, I was just possessed by a ghost for a moment. Please don't do this. I will definitely improve in the future..."

Similar words kept coming out of the mouths of these aristocratic landlords, but the emperor did not answer their pleas for mercy. He just drew a few strokes in the void, and then took out countless good deeds done by the masters of the aristocratic families.

Such acts as raping a little boy, embezzling billions of Mora, bribing officials at all levels, etc., all made the people who saw it so angry that they were speechless, and then the emperor shouted loudly:

"I never thought that the people I protect would be such a bunch of scum. They are not even human beings."

"Now, I sentence them to death. Immediate execution..."
