Let you be a faint king, and you have unified the six kingdoms?

"That's right, but there hasn't been any problem with the chief envoy system. Generally speaking, unless there are real system defects, the old system will not be replaced." Yang Hongdao, "Or, His Majesty has this intention gone."

"Oh..." Ke Wu nodded, expressing understanding.

…………

Sakurajima Province.

Duguxin is indeed dealing with the problem of spirits and monsters.

In the territory of Dagan, currently surrounded by the sea, Sakurajima is the largest market.

Some uninhabited islands and the new continent in the south are not counted. It will take many years for such places to develop to keep up with the development of the mainland.

For Sakurajima, shipping is the top priority.

Because it does not border the mainland.

no way.

If something happens to the shipping, Dugu Xin's official career will come to an end.

In the past few years when Sakurajima Province was in power, Dugu Xin has already experienced a lot and knows all kinds of things like the back of his hand.

Shipping is very developed.

What happened in Qidi Xinhaidu was published in the newspaper and sent over within a week.

And he was also dumbfounded after learning the news of Ke Wu's abdication.

"Is it so sudden?"

"Well... Anyway, this is reality."

"Then the Yang family is the first family, then the Ke family is the second, and I am the third child of the Dugu family as always."

In this regard, Dugu Xin does not mind.

The Dugu family originally came to Qian country from other places ten years ago, and it is already very good to be able to continue to be a top family.

Their family's Dugu Yuekong, his own Dugu Xin, and various generals and civil servants work for the court.

It is not too much to enjoy the life of others.

Everyone does.

He learned civil and military talents and awarded them to the emperor's family.

As for the remaining Luo Zhicheng of Dugu Yuekong, he also created a real martial arts system last year, so Dugu Xin was naturally happy.

But Dugu Xin has no say in the matter of whether to fight for the crown prince.

Now the owner of the Dugu family is not him.

After coming to Sakurajima Province to serve as the chief envoy, Dugu Yuekong became the person who handled the affairs of the Dugu family on the mainland.

Dugu Yuekong has full authority to handle the affairs over there.

And what Dugu Xin did was to serve as the mainstay of the Dugu family and continuously expand its influence.

In other words, don't seek meritorious service, but seek no faults.

Concentrating on the economy, while doing everything possible to develop Sakurajima, and at the same time reaping benefits for his family.

"First of all, the spirit monsters must not affect the seaborne trade. This is the most basic. The second is to capture the sea spirit monsters, and then add to the economy." Duguxin thought.

The goal is set.

How to do it?

Sea spirit monsters are far more difficult to deal with than land spirit monsters.

Chapter 582 The characteristics of sea spirits, the fragmentation of the empire

In addition to being harder to catch, sea spirits are also more powerful than land spirits.

In this regard, Duguxin still has no good solution, so he can only let the exploration ship conduct large-scale exploration, and then find a new suitable route.

At the same time, increase the price and use the money ability to let the warriors try and make mistakes.

With enough trial and error, you can find a way to deal with some of the sea spirits.

Both of these methods are stupid methods.

The good news is, there aren't any smart guys out there, either.

On a sea boat, a large number of warriors were standing on the boat, gathering the strength of everyone, and caught a huge sea fish.

"There is aura in the body, it is definitely a ghost."

"It just doesn't look very smart."

"really."

"The monsters in the sea, how come they only grow tall, but don't grow IQ?"

"I can't speak, at this level, I can already speak human language on land, but this guy can't speak?"

A group of warriors were discussing.

Some people also put forward a hypothesis: "Maybe it is because... there is no need? Because there are no people in the ocean, so the spirits don't need to contact people?"

This person's hypothesis will later be demonstrated in multiple sources of information.

The real martial arts troops who dealt with ghosts in Tibet also noticed that the ghosts in no man's land can't speak human language.

And those spirits and monsters that are active in the human area are generally able to speak human language.

In other words, only spirits that come into contact with humans can speak human language.

Otherwise, even if you speak, what you speak is not human language, but the language of spirits.

…………

With a lot of information about sea spirits and monsters, and using this as an entry point, Duguxin made a long thought.

"There are several obvious differences between sea spirits and land spirits."

"The first difference is that the spirit energy contained in the sea monster's body is very abundant, and its nutritional value is generally high."

"The second difference is that most sea spirits can't speak human languages, but the sea spirits near the harbor can speak."

"The third difference is that sea spirits generally have a lower IQ and are more wild."

Duguxin made a conclusion at the end - all the spiritual energy was gone, and the IQ did not increase.

Then it's easy to do.

Dugu Xin smiled.

I'm afraid that the sea spirits are stronger and smarter.That's very tricky.

Now if this group of guys have low IQ, then let them have a good experience of human strategies.

Dugu Xin began to let warriors investigate the habits of marine life, and then by simulating the habits, such as simulating the call of a spouse, and then induce the prey, lure it into the big net, and then catch it.

…………

This method worked quickly, and a large number of sea spirits were captured.

For a while, Sakurajima province can be said to have made a fortune.

Because before that, sea spirits were difficult to capture because of their stronger strength.

Things are rare.

Therefore, sea spirits are welcomed by the wealthy class.

Now, sea spirits have been proven to have higher nutrition, and there are more of them.

That would be more welcome.

…………

Kang Zhe's 11th year, July.

A dolphin spirit who witnessed many sea spirits being captured by humans.

It tried to dissuade it, but many of those sea spirits couldn't understand, couldn't communicate, and fell into the trap foolishly.

Therefore, the dolphin spirit lurked in the port to inquire, and finally learned of the existence of the nine-tailed demon fox.

Then after a tortuous journey, he went to the mainland.

And when it got to the coast, the dolphin was at a loss again because it couldn't go ashore.

Just when it was confused.

The real body of the nine-tailed demon fox appears here.

Naturally, she predicted the arrival of the dolphin spirit through divination.

"Lord Fox Fairy! Master Fox Fairy!" the dolphin spirit shouted.

The nine-tailed demon fox noticed it and came to it.

"The heaven and the earth are so beautiful..." The nine-tailed fox looked at the dolphin obsessively, and then pointed out a finger.

The dolphin spirit got a chance, was turned into a demon, transformed into a beautiful girl, and appeared in front of the nine-tailed demon fox.

She was extremely respectful: "Thanks to Mr. Hu Immortal for guiding me and making me a goblin."

But he was also extremely anxious: "Master Yaoxian, please save me, the sea spirit!"

"Speak slowly." Nine-tailed Demon Fox said.

Soon, the nine-tailed demon fox learned what happened from the dolphin demon.

The nine-tailed demon fox shook his head: "There is no way, this is the choice of heaven and earth."

"Why!" the dolphin demon cried.

"There is no reason, whether the aura of heaven and earth enters the body, whether to strengthen the body or strengthen the intelligence, has been answered in the long development. Those goblins who have strengthened the body are huge in size, and the aura in their bodies is several times or even more than ten times that of goblins of the same level. Times. But lack of intelligence, often besieged by humans, the final end is death..."

The Nine-Tailed Demon Fox nodded his head: "Like me, I focus on the evolution of spiritual energy on spiritual knowledge, and my talent for divination is higher than that of human beings, so I have the last laugh."

Hearing this, the dolphin spirit was very disappointed: "Could it be that there is no solution?"

"No. But...you can push them to change." The nine-tailed demon fox caressed the dolphin spirit's face, "I will teach you the art of controlling beasts in the deep sea. , you use this to protect the spirits in the ocean and unite their strength."

The dolphin was shrewd and enlightened, and bowed deeply: "I would like to follow the teachings of the fox fairy..."

"Ah."

The nine-tailed demon fox nodded in satisfaction.

She looked out to the ocean.

The power of the spirits and monsters will usher in a huge increase.

…………

Daqian empire.

Qidi, Xinhaidu, in the palace.

Luo Lin was sitting in the study, with Ke Manan on the side, and a plate of grilled squid was placed in front of them.

The squid is not big, but its color is excellent, and there is a refreshing aroma in the air.

This is a characteristic unique to spirit monsters. Spirit monster meat is not only better preserved, but also has a better taste and better nutrition. It beats ordinary meat in every way.

It makes people feel the magical transformation ability of heaven and earth aura on the physical body.

"It's from Sakurajima. Dugu Xin did a good job!" Luo Lin was quite satisfied.

At present, the imperial court is mainly dealing with shipping in Wudi and Southeast Asia, and Ke Lie is leading the navy to deal with sea spirits.

The ocean is vast, and the 10-strong navy can only deal with that area for the time being.

The rest of the dry land, the Qi land, and the ocean areas along the Yan land are currently ranked behind.

This is indeed the objective reason for the lack of naval forces.

Sakurajima Province was able to handle it by himself, and he did it so beautifully. Not only did he solve the problem of sea spirits affecting shipping trade, but he also made a lot of money.

After this wave, the prime ministers of the big cabinet all spoke highly of Dugu Xin, believing him to be a pillar of the country.
