Chapter 217 The medicinal materials are in place!Power grows! Sun Simiao's alchemy skills are unparalleled by anyone in the North. Even among Da Yu, Sun Simiao's alchemy skills are among the best. No one in Da Yan would have thought that there would be such a powerful alchemist under Chu Jiang's command. Behind his back, he can convert a large amount of medicinal materials into elixirs at the fastest speed, and the amount of elixirs produced is extremely large, and the quality of the elixirs is also top-notch.
Not knowing that Sun Simiao and General Dian were present in Chujiang, no matter how smart everyone in Dayan was, they could not guess the reason why Chujiang was really unwilling to go south.
"In two months, all these supplies will be delivered. I hope the King of Liangshan will abide by the agreement!" After thinking for a moment, Emperor Renzong said.
Chen Gong shook his head, "I want to see this batch of supplies in seven days."
"Seven days, how is that possible!" A civil servant in the court immediately exclaimed.
Prime Minister Dayan on the side also took a step forward and said: "Master Chen does not know that such a large amount of medicinal materials needs to be mobilized by the court from all over the country. This process requires a lot of time, and Master Chen wants all of them." It’s medicinal materials. If the quantity is insufficient, they need to be purchased from various places. When they arrive in the capital, they need to be registered and compiled by the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs before handing over."
"Each step of this requires a lot of time. Even if all the medicinal materials are now piled up in the treasury, just sorting out the enthronement and handing over and checking between the two parties will probably take longer than seven days!"
"I will naturally know whether the medicinal materials I want can be collected. The core medicinal materials that are really troublesome are all piled up in Dayan's treasury. Such resources will not be placed in local warehouses. As for the remaining ordinary medicinal materials, That number is completely worthless to Dayan Chaotang."
"Even if Yanshan City doesn't have enough medicinal materials, they can be collected through emergency recruitment from several surrounding counties. It won't take long. As long as you send additional personnel to count, seven days will be more than enough!"
"We only have seven days. If we can't get it together, there's no need to talk!" Chen Gong snorted coldly, and the pressure in the void became a little more powerful again.
Chen Gong knew very well what Dayan was thinking. He just wanted to delay time. If he really followed Dayan's idea, he would have several officials guarding the treasury in the Ministry of Revenue slowly count, plus those who were already They could delay unnecessary transfers in a year and a half, let alone two months.
If Chen Gong really agreed just now, two months later, Dayan's answer would definitely be that the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there are many supplies. It is impossible to collect them at the moment. He asked for a few days of grace, and then there was grace again and again until Chen Gong completely lost it. Only when you are patient can these medicinal ingredients truly come together.
Chen Gong does not have so much time to waste with this doomed court, and in two months, the prince's 40 army has been trained, and it is time for Dayan to be destroyed.
At that time, what use will these medicinal materials have?
"Okay, I promise you!" After a while, Emperor Renzong took a deep breath and said.
"Emperor Dayan is indeed majestic and regal. I am waiting for the good news from Dayan in the inn!" Chen Gong immediately smiled, offered his hand to Emperor Renzong, and then turned and left.
As Chen Gong left, the pressure in the void dissipated like a tide. All the civil and military officials suddenly let out a sigh of relief and relaxed.
After Chen Gong left, Dayan Chaotang fell into a dead silence. All the ministers lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Emperor Renzong above.
After a long time, Emperor Renzong's voice sounded, "Assemble all the officials of the six departments, rotate day and night, without stopping for a moment, and gather all the medicinal materials as quickly as possible. [-]% of the medicinal materials and [-]% of the food must be mobilized within seven days." Finish!"
"Prime Minister, you will supervise the completion of this matter. After seven days, try to delay it as much as possible. If Chen Gong is resolute and there is no room for change, give them the things."
"According to the order!"
At the same time, in Yanshan Academy, in the bamboo forest where the mountain leader lived, the mountain leader sat on a bamboo chair, looking at the fresh air rising above the palace and the strong pressure, he sighed slowly, and tensed Then he closed his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, all the officials from the six departments gathered in the treasury and began to count various medicinal materials. They even took out all the medicinal materials from each official's house. The counties and counties around Yanshan City also started to move. All the medicinal materials were gathered together and escorted towards Yanshan City by the soldiers as quickly as possible.
The entire Yanshan City and many surrounding counties and cities were busy at an unprecedented speed. Under the high pressure from above, the efficiency of the officials increased rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed by.
When Chen Gong led a group of royal guards to the treasury, the prime minister with a sad face bowed to Palace Chief Chen. After a while, he stood up and said: "Master Chen, I have a great responsibility, and the seven-day deadline has expired. We have only collected [-]% of the medicinal materials, and there are still a lot of medicinal materials on the way. We are not delaying on purpose. There are too many medicinal materials and it is really impossible to get them together in a short time. Mr. Chen, please give me a few days of grace!"
"Okay, then let's load the [-]% of the medicinal materials into the car and take them away first. Someone will come to pick up the remaining medicinal materials. However, I am not sure whether it will be the official by then. He said that he will not wait until the Jinlun Dharma King, who is under the command of the prince, I just have time." Chen Gong looked at Prime Minister Yan in front of him expressionlessly and said quietly.
Prime Minister Dayan's eyes suddenly shrank, Jinlun Dharma King, although he had never heard of this name, but Dayan's four Zhen Gang Realm grandmasters died under those five round else can be called the Golden Wheel Dharma King except that one?
Thinking of this, the Prime Minister of Great Yan made an imperceptible movement with his right hand, and all the Great Yan officials immediately understood. The next moment, the sound of horse hooves sounded from a distance, and a dusty cavalryman ran from a distance and came to the crowd. He immediately turned over and dismounted and said, "I would like to inform the Prime Minister that the medicinal materials from Daiyuan, Qinghe and other six counties have arrived twenty miles outside the city. They will reach the capital in an hour!"
"it is good!"
"Master Chen, with God's blessing, the medicinal materials arrived in time. Master Chen, please take them with you, so you don't have to make another trip."
"That's fine too!"
Beiliang City in the north! Car after cart of medicinal materials were transported to the city, and Chen Gong also reported to Chu Jiang the situation of the envoy to Dayan.
"The civil servants have to go through a lot of twists and turns. If not for sending a messenger, it would have taken at least a month to get this batch of medicinal materials together." After learning about Dayan's operation, Chu Jiang said with sincere emotion.
"Your Majesty, Miao Zan, the palace has been in charge of internal affairs before, so I'm quite familiar with it."
"The public platform is too modest. I still know the power of the public platform." Chu Jiang said with a smile.
"Gongtai, now that the medicinal materials are in place, it will only be fifty days before the 40-strong army is formed. By then, Dayan will be destroyed. After Dayan is destroyed, it will be our time to rule."
"The northern border is only three states, with a sparse population and a large army stationed here. It can barely be managed without a central organization. Dayan has twelve states. It has a vast territory and a large population. It must establish a complete central management mechanism."
"There is also local management. Counties, counties, towns, and villages must have detailed systems. Based on the original systems of Dayan and your respective dynasties in the past, we can designate a system suitable for us based on the current conditions, and also There are laws of the new dynasty and so on.”
"You and Zhang Qin both have experience in managing internal affairs. Zhang Qin is already doing it. You will go back and work with Zhang Qin to improve the court's management system. You must build an effective one within these fifty days. Simple and efficient official system.”
"I obey the order!" After hearing this, Chen Gong immediately bowed and went to look for Zhang Qin in the government office.
"Send all the medicinal materials to the Medicine King, and let the Medicine King do his best to refine the Body Tempering Pill!" After Chen Gong left, Chu Jiang ordered the Jin Yiwei beside him.
"Yes!"
A moment later, a huge bronze medicine cauldron appeared in the palace. Hot green flames rose in the medicine cauldron. One by one, the medicinal herbs fell into the medicine cauldron under the pull of the green literary energy. A quarter of an hour later. , nearly a thousand pills came out of the furnace, and accurately fell into the gourd prepared aside.
Immediately afterwards, another herb fell into the medicine cauldron, repeating the previous Simiao, on the other hand, was sitting cross-legged, with cyan light rippling around his body, but there was no trace of tension or fatigue on his face.
Obviously, for Sun Simiao, refining low-level elixirs such as Body Tempering Pills does not put much pressure on him. Even if he refines nearly a thousand pills at a time, he will still not feel much pressure.
Sun Simiao's literary and Taoist cultivation has reached the state of enlightenment, and based on Sun Simiao's understanding of elixirs, if he is well prepared, he can refine sixth-level elixirs, and the body tempering elixir is only the lowest first-level elixir.
Refining such an elixir does not require much effort from Sun Simiao, and Sun Simiao can also ensure that the efficacy of the medicinal materials is not lost, and can lock more than [-]% of the efficacy in the elixir before refining it. The number of elixirs is three times that of an ordinary alchemist! With the arrival of the medicinal materials, the entire Dayan suddenly fell into busyness. The green medicinal cauldron has been refining elixirs from afar, and Chu Jiang has not been idle these days. In addition to practicing martial arts every day, in order to Break through to the Tongxuan realm as soon as possible. In his free time, he will go to the government office to discuss the system of the next new dynasty with Zhang Qin and Chen Gong, and try to improve his own court as much as possible.
On the other side, in the Three Hundred Miles Fortress to the north, four huge military camps stand on the plain. Among the endless camps, there are [-] soldiers lined up in neat queues at regular intervals. Under the leadership of the right military attachés, he practiced martial arts that were popular among the Tang army.
At the same time, the army's three-day training was changed to three a day, and the food in the army was changed from the usual meals to better meat than during wartime, and it was still supplied in unlimited quantities, and there were also special A supply of decoctions for recovery.
These are carefully selected soldiers. Under rigorous training and an unlimited supply of meat, their physical fitness increases at a rate visible to the naked eye. Almost every day, some people break through their limits and become acquired warriors. As time goes by, , the momentum of the army is getting stronger and stronger!
Three thousand words, plus the previous five thousand words, today’s eight thousand words are completed!
