Chapter 389 - 389: Green Lotus Great Wall (2)
Even Guo Jia took a few more glances at Hu Hua in surprise.
After all, Hu Hua had been recommended by him to become the owner of the Myriad Lotus Building.
However, upon careful consideration, the current dynasty was primarily focused on development, with no immediate threat from foreign races within a thousand miles. As time passed, though, it was likely that such concerns would emerge.
Hu Hua’s objective was to attempt to eradicate the roots before this seedling could grow. He couldn’t guarantee that it wouldn’t sprout in the future, but at least by the time the dynasty reached its full strength, no one would harbor ill intentions.
“Your Majesty, I think Hu Hua is right.”
Guo Jia took a step forward and cupped his hands at Mei Changge. He was definitely on Hu Hua’s side regarding this.
“We agree!”
“We agree!”
Huang Yaoshi, Xu Changqing, and the others stepped forward and said.
“In that case, from today onwards, the Myriad Lotus Building will be divided into three functions.
Mei Changge thought for a while and said to Hu Hua.
“Firstly, to oversee the business taxes of the dynasty.”
“Secondly, to oversee the Green Lotus Market and promote the use of Myriad Lotus Coins.”
“Thirdly, establish an official shop for the dynasty, set stable prices, and ensure uniformity. Regarding this, Hu Hua, go back and make a decision.”
“Hu Hua, you will still be in charge of the Myriad Lotus Building. As for the people in charge of the three functions, you can recommend them to Feng Xiao for review.”
After Mei Changge finished speaking, he nodded at Guo Jia.
“And Guo Jing.”
Mei Changge looked at Guo Jing, who had been silent the entire time.
Ever since Guo Jing became the master of the Green-Robed Tower, his aura had changed drastically.
In the past, he exuded a so-called martial arts aura, but now, there was a trace of dignity about him. After all, as the head of Green -Robed Tower, lacking dignity would render him ineffective in intimidating certain thieves.
“Yes!”
Guo Jing strode forward, placed his hands in front of him, and bowed to Mei Changge.
“The Green-Robed Tower should have established a residence in the various cities of the dynasty, right?”
Mei Changge asked.
Ever since the Green-robed soldiers appeared in the dynasty, Mei Changge had asked Guo Jing to build manors in various cities for use.
“Your Majesty, the Green-robed soldiers have made preparations for the 35 cities of the dynasty.”
Guo Jing said in a serious tone.
“In that case, it’s time to open the manors. Starting today, besides handling punishments, Green -Robed Tower will also be accessible to the commoners of the dynasty and tasked with resolving cases.”
It could be said that Green-Robed Tower concentrated on constables and similar roles. In addition to handling punishments, they were also responsible for settling certain cases.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Guo Jing hurriedly replied. With the Green-Robed Tower’s responsibility to solve cases, it could be said that his position was much more stable.
“Your Majesty, the academy has been established in the dynasty. Should we open it to the commoners?”
At that moment, Guo Jia walked out of the crowd and asked Mei Changge.
Ever since he and Mei Changge returned from the Great Xia Kingdom, they had been preparing for the academy.
Moreover, Guo Jia had discussed with his disciple, Feng Heng, about letting people from the martial arts school enter the academy to be teachers. “You’re right. It’s time to open the academy.”
When Mei Changge heard Guo Jia’s words, a smile appeared on his face.
This was not the first time everyone had heard about the academy. Some people were even looking forward to it.
The court meeting continued. In the depths of No Man’s Land, near the location of the Green Lotus Dynasty, four miserable figures approached the Green Lotus Great Wall.
“Elder Wan, didn’t you say that the Dark Northern race won’t chase after us?”
Zhou Zhennan held a sharp sword in his hand and asked with a tired expression.
“Who knew that not only did the three of you take the Dark Northern Fruit but you also took their Dark Northern Manual!”
Wan Chuan looked at Zhou Zhennan. The purple sword in his hand was still stained with blood.
“Uncle Chuan, I didn’t know it was the Dark Northern Manual. Besides, who knew that it would be placed at the corner of the table by them?”
Wan Liutang said with a puzzled expression.
Who would have thought that the famous Dark Northern Manual would be used to pad the table corner?
“We took Dark Northern Manual and now we’re heading to the territory of the academy. Could it be…!”
Xuan Ci had a helpless expression as he looked at Wan Chuan.
“No, I’ve used the paper figurine as a substitute to divert their attention. As long as we don’t return to the depths of No Man’s Land, the Dark Northern race won’t discover us.”
Wan Chuan shook his head. The three were too worried.
The paper figurines were a unique treasure in his possession that could simulate their auras. This was also the way for them to escape the Dark Northern race.
“Hmm? Elder Wan, when did an additional city wall appear in front of us?”
Zhou Zhennan looked at the wall in the distance and asked with a puzzled expression.
“A city wall? That’s impossible. There’s no city nearby!”
They looked in the direction Zhou Zhennan was pointing, where a wall came into view.
The greenish-black wall was about 30 feet tall. It was the Green Lotus Great Wall.
Other than that, there was also a faint fog that enveloped the surroundings. He thought that he saw a mirage.
This fog was the masterpiece of the Constellation Tool. However, as the Green Lotus Great Wall had enveloped the entire dynasty, the effect of the Constellation Tool was insignificant..
