The Rebirth of the Immortal Emperor: I am the Lord

The City Lord's Mansion was slow to speak, but in fact, it took only a moment to deal with the collection of the annual tribute from the Gale Empire. But in this short moment, Ye Tian's wallet bulged, as if a beggar had suddenly become a billionaire.

He suddenly had 650 million lower-grade immortal crystals on him, plus the immortal crystals he got from Luo Feng, the total amount exceeded 700 million lower-grade immortal crystals. Add to that the treasures and resources that Luo Feng gave to the demon generals when he surrendered, and the magic crystals and resources looted from the demon army, and Ye Tian suddenly became rich. With the money, Ye Tian seemed to have straightened his back a lot.

At this time, the internal affairs officer and a group of guards looked at Ye Tian as if they had seen the God of Wealth descend to the world. They opened their mouths wide, stunned, and their eyes were full of stars. They all sighed! "It turns out that money can be made this way......!"

"Ahem! What are you looking at?"

"Just a tiny bit of low-grade immortal crystal, and you are so shocked. Look at your lack of ability——!"

As soon as Ye Tian finished speaking, everyone was stunned, and then they reacted, showing awkward smiles, and even more contempt in their hearts. Seven hundred million immortal crystals, although they are of low quality, but it is still seven hundred million! They have never dared to think about it, let alone see it. However, so many immortal crystals, in Ye Tian's mouth, are just a little bit?

Everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, "The Lord is the Lord, he is indeed not comparable to them!"

However, just when they were lamenting their inferiority, Ye Tian suddenly said, "Internal Affairs Officer!"

"I'm here!" Hearing Ye Tian's voice, the internal affairs officer quickly knelt on one knee and agreed.

"Pass the order down. All soldiers, officers, officials and government officials, starting from this month, will have their salaries replaced with immortal crystals. Ordinary soldiers and government officials will receive one low-grade immortal crystal per month, and the elixirs for cultivation remain the same; for soldiers, captains will receive two, sergeants will receive three, battalion commanders will receive four, and regiment commanders will receive five - officers above the regimental level will receive five more for each promotion, and so on, and the elixirs for cultivation remain the same. For officials, the ninth rank will receive four, the eighth rank will receive six, the seventh rank will receive eight, and the sixth rank will receive ten, and five more for each promotion above that - and so on. The elixirs for cultivation remain the same, and one less for each deputy rank. When we become wealthy in the future, we will increase them as appropriate."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, revealing an extremely excited look. The internal affairs officer even trembled and answered excitedly, "Yes! My lord, I will do it right away!" After that, he turned and left, ready to convey this great news to the government office, officials and all the soldiers in the army of Fuxing City. Ye Tian looked at his back and nodded with satisfaction. He knew that this reform would bring unprecedented changes to the City Lord's Mansion, allowing everyone here to practice better, grow better, and be more loyal.

As the saying goes, birds die for food and people die for money. Ye Tian doesn't believe that with such favorable conditions and generous treatment, anyone would have second thoughts.

You know, in the past, such treatment was absolutely impossible. In the past, ordinary government offices and ordinary soldiers only had a monthly salary of ten taels of silver, which was only one tael of gold per year. However, now that Ye Tian opened his mouth, the lowest-level government offices and soldiers all started with one low-grade immortal crystal. Such treatment was something they had never dared to dream of.

Of course, this was not a sudden impulse from Ye Tian because he had suddenly gained a large amount of wealth. If that were the case, the 700 million low-grade immortal crystals on him would not last long. However, Ye Tian had his own plans. It was just immortal crystals. For others, it was a precious cultivation resource that was difficult to obtain, but for Ye Tian, ​​as long as he wanted, it might not be difficult.

As a unique crystal mine in the fairy world, Xianjing contains rich fairy energy. There are more or less such veins in every city territory, but it is impossible for everyone to have a heaven-defying perspective like him. So Ye Tian is not worried about not being able to pay salaries. At the very least, Ye Tian can also exchange a large number of Xianjing by selling elixirs. Even after recruiting or training alchemists in the future, this dilemma will be solved. After all, in the fairy world, elixirs are much more valuable than Xianjing. Even the lowest-level Xiandan costs at least dozens of low-grade Xianjing. The high-level Xiandan is even more in short supply. It is not a problem to sell one for hundreds of millions of top-grade Xianjing. And as the city he controls prospers, various taxes will definitely not be less.

The purpose of the new salary system announced by Ye Tian is not only to significantly improve the treatment of the army and officials, but also to stimulate their passion and loyalty through generous treatment. Of course, this decision not only reflects Ye Tian's respect and recognition for the army and officials, but also shows his confidence in the future and his generosity to the entire team.

For the soldiers and government officials, their treatment jumped from the original ten taels of silver to one low-grade immortal crystal per month, which was a thousand times higher. This was undoubtedly a huge leap. Immortal crystals are extremely precious cultivation resources and have immeasurable value for practitioners. Ye Tian directly used immortal crystals as their salary, which not only greatly improved their living standards and cultivation speed, but also made them feel Ye Tian's generosity and attention.

For officers and officials, their salary increases were even more astonishing. As their positions were promoted, the amount of immortal crystals they received also continued to increase. This system not only encouraged them to work harder to improve their cultivation and positions, but also allowed them to see more possibilities in the future. At the same time, the continued supply of cultivation pills also ensured that they could receive continuous support and progress in their cultivation.

In addition, Ye Tian also took into account the situation of deputy positions. Their salary was one fairy crystal less than that of the full-time positions. This differentiated treatment also reflected Ye Tian's clear division of positions and responsibilities.

Of course, Ye Tian also understood that although wealth was important, what was more important was how to use it. As a modern man who was reborn on Earth, although Ye Tian did not dare to say that he was absolutely proficient in the art of controlling his subordinates, he would definitely not be like the Gale Empire, which only knew how to exploit.

Ye Tian is sure that his decision will definitely greatly enhance the cohesion, combat effectiveness and loyalty of the entire people under his rule, making everyone more actively support Ye Tian in unifying the Northern Wilderness and even the entire fairy world.

"Report!"

"My lord! General Zhengwei and other generals request an audience with you!"

"Let them go to the council hall."

"Yes! Lord!"

The atmosphere in the meeting hall was solemn and dignified. Ye Tian sat on the main seat, his expression calm but intimidating. General Zhengwei and other generals entered the hall one after another, with a fierce aura on their bodies.

"Greetings, my lord!" The generals saluted in unison, their voices loud and clear.

"No need to be polite, everyone, please take a seat." Ye Tian raised his hand to gesture, his voice steady and powerful.

After everyone sat down, Tieshan stood up again and asked, "My lord, do you have any instructions for me to come here?"

It is like this, everyone: "According to reliable information, a million demon troops suddenly gathered on the ground of the Great Wilderness. They were divided into four groups, all led by strong men in the realm of Demon King, and marched towards our Fuxing City, Luoka City, Wanxiang City and Douluo City respectively. It is expected that they will arrive at our Fuxing City in three hours. Their intentions are already very clear. If it is as I expected, they just want to take down the four cities in one fell swoop, and use them as a support to invade our human territory. Therefore, our army must prepare for battle as soon as possible and must not let their conspiracy succeed. And this is also the time to test the results of my Yanhuang Guards' cultivation during this period."

However, considering the strength of the demon army generals, I will still take action this time, but I will only be responsible for dealing with the demon army generals who are stronger than you. The rest of the demon army needs you to lead them to fight. Do you have confidence?

After hearing Ye Tian's words, the people who were a little nervous because the demon army general was a demon king-level warrior suddenly felt relieved. They immediately knelt on one knee and said in a loud voice: "My lord, I have the confidence to lead my soldiers to annihilate the demon army!"

Ye Tian looked at them, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. "Okay, as long as you have confidence, I will be relieved." "But you can't be careless. After all, although we have 300,000 troops, they are all newly recruited soldiers. Even though they have mastered some combat skills and combined attack formations after a few days of training, their strength has improved a lot, but they have no combat experience. You must be careful on this point."

"In addition, I would like to emphasize that we must not only defeat the enemy, but also protect our own soldiers." Ye Tian continued, "I hope you can always pay attention to changes on the battlefield, adjust tactics and strategies in a timely manner, and ensure the safety of our soldiers."

"Yes! My lord!" the generals answered in unison, their voices full of firmness and confidence.

"In addition, this battle must be won quickly and the demon army that intends to attack Fuxing City must be completely wiped out. After the battle in Fuxing City is over, we must also rush to the other three cities. This time, we must teach the demon army a profound lesson. We must let the demons know that our human race is not so easy to bully."

"Yes! My Lord! I will prepare right now. We will annihilate the millions of demon soldiers and show the might of our human race. We will make sure they never return..."
