Chapter 543: Entering the Star Dou Forest again(1/2)
In the winter of 1043, the empire was defeated and more than 30% of the territory in the entire territory was lost.
Of course, this kind of thing does not feel anything to the vast majority of ordinary residents.
For them, whether they are ruled by the Heavenly Dou Empire or the Sun and Moon Empire, they are actually the same.
Because the nobles who really ruled did not change, what was their past life and what was still the present.
Even because of the rule of the Sun and Moon Empire, they can pay less taxes every year and live a better life.
Li Yi could feel that although these ordinary residents felt that their days were similar on the surface, in fact, the entire Liufeng City was indeed affected.
For example, because the Sun and Moon Empire set up troops on the border, they did not prohibit any commercial trade.
Moreover, because of the mediation of the Wuhun Hall and many private trade routes, it is impossible for the Tiandou Empire to ban it.
Therefore, during this period, many merchants from the Sun and Moon Empire came to this city.
They brought many rare and advanced products from the Sun and Moon Empire.
Not to mention anything else, the science and technology of the Sun and Moon Empire must at least lead the Tian Dou Empire for hundreds of years.
Of course, even though he was leading the Sun and Moon Empire for hundreds of years, he still did not light up steam or internal combustion engines.
But in the use of their soul power, they are much more advanced than the Tiandou Empire.
And many soul power technologies have been applied to daily life.
The most important thing is that they are far beyond the Tiandou Empire in many aspects such as ordinary agriculture and even breeding.
This leads to a very serious point, that is, people from the Sun and Moon Empire can cause trade and travel disabilities, as well as commercial dumping to residents and even cities on the border of the Tiandou Empire.
The same goods, such as food, and a large number of livestock. Even if the people from the Sun and Moon Empire are transported, the price is cheaper than those in the Tiandou Empire.
Of course, they can only do this at the border, and they will not be able to recover the cost if they are far away.
This will undoubtedly cause great commercial damage to the existing territory of the Tiandou Empire.
More importantly, if the residents of the border and even cities are accustomed to using this cheap food and even meat purchased from the Sun and Moon Empire.
Then once the two sides start a war, the trade channels between the two sides are closed, and the border itself does not have a large amount of food stored.
Then it can be foreseen that famine will definitely occur, of course, the greater possibility is that the nobles in the cities who do not have food surrender first.
Therefore, the royal family of the Tiandou Empire wanted to forbid merchants from the Sun and Moon Empire to bring a large amount of goods into the Tiandou Empire.
But the problem is that it cannot be solved at all, because such profits are too big.
If there is 20% profit, capital will be ready to move, and if there is 50% profit, capital will take risks.
If there is 100% profit, capital will dare to take the risk of being snatched. If there is 300% profit, capital will dare to trample on all laws in the world.
This is indeed the truth. Although the Tiandou Empire punished those merchants seriously, they had no way to punish those nobles.
Those nobles only needed to buy food from the Sun and Moon Empire, and their own fields did not need to grow food, and they could plant some crops with higher economic value.
Moreover, when trading with the Sun and Moon Empire, the profits are also quite generous, and the profit return rate can reach 150% at the border.
If you can get things to Liufeng City, the return rate will be more than 300%.
Even if the punishment is serious, what can I do? The trade profit for such things is too great.
Even the Tiandou Empire could not control it at all. If the Tiandou Empire really wanted to make up its mind to eliminate it, it would definitely touch the interests of those nobles.
The current empire is already in turmoil and people's hearts are scattered.
If this method is adopted at this time and severely punishing the nobles and wealthy businessmen, the entire empire will probably be even more chaotic.
So even if it is vigorously banned, it is just a drop in the bucket.
Commercial dumping caused by the Sun and Moon Empire will not affect the Tiandou Empire in a short period of time.
But it won't take many years to continue like this. A large area on the border of the Tiandou Empire may be unable to resist the Sun and Moon Empire.
Because once war begins, as long as the Sun and Moon Empire cuts off its trade routes and prohibits any goods from entering the Tiandou Empire, the defenses on those borders will become decorations.
As long as people live, they have to eat. This is the case in this world. Even soul masters are just a little more hungry than ordinary people, and it is impossible not to eat.
Li Yi understood that although the Spirit Hall came out to mediate, the Sun and Moon Empire still had a covetous desire for the entire Tiandou Empire.
Of course, these things are not what he needs to consider. What he has to do now is to take down the entire Star Dou Forest core and rearrange the formation.
Then release all the sealed soul masters one by one.
This takes a long time, and the same benefit is that now there is no need for him to try his best to cover up his identity as before.
He has revealed some of his identity and some of his strength.
Moreover, during this period, he gained the trust of many people in the city. As he expected, the news that he was a healing Conrat was indeed not covered up very well.
Most ordinary residents and some small nobles did not know, but An Qian, her two friends, and even the patriarchs of some of the great nobles in the city, knew the news vaguely.
Although they knew it, they never revealed this and even pretended to be very well.
Li Yi also understood that since they all knew, even if he disappeared for a while, he would not attract any attention or attention. Of course, he still needed to explain to An Qian before leaving.
A Yin and Bibi Dong still have to continue to go to school. This year, they have been promoted from first grade to second grade.
Moreover, the Soul Master Academy will also have a long holiday soon. This is the only long holiday that you have the opportunity to have every year. The holiday will last from late winter to early next summer.
He would come back before the holiday, spend some time in Liufeng City, and then take Bibidong and Ayin back to the Stardou Forest to live for a while.
Of course, the premise of this matter is that the internal problems in the core area of Stardou Forest must be solved.
He could feel that during this period, the core area seemed to be becoming more and more lively.
Some soul beasts have a long lifespan, so long that they no longer care about time.
In the eyes of many soul beasts, perhaps just a moment, the time for a nap is longer than this.
But even so, the abnormal movements caused during this period did cause changes in some soul beasts, but fortunately it had not noticed them yet.
Di Tian, the king of the entire Star Dou Forest, is infinitely close to the soul beast of God. In addition to the beasts, dragon gods, in the divine realm, Di Tian’s strength can be said to be the strongest among the soul beasts.
Of course, it refers to the living soul beast. If it wants to completely occupy the core area of the Star Dou Forest, it cannot get around.
As for other 100,000-year-old soul beasts, there is basically no need to pay attention to it.
Whether it is the Titan giant ape or the Sky Blue Bull, their strength is strong, but they don’t need to be cautious enough.
The Titan giant ape is still the sky blue bull man, and their strength is similar to that of Big Big Wolf.
In addition, I have cultivated so many soul beasts during this period, it is completely enough to deal with most soul beasts in the core area.
The only thing that needs to be treated with caution is Di Tian.
Li Yi knew most of the other party's situation. Even in these days, he had sent out many soul beasts to gradually understand the residence of soul beasts in the core area of the Stardou Forest.
They even began to investigate their living habits and hunting situations.
The detection effect is quite good when issuing both sides of the land and air.
The core area has been touched by him almost the same, and the entire Star Dou Forest is also being built in an orderly manner.
Of course, most of the construction situations are based on formation construction.
Under the basis of the great shock of Tiangang and Earth Demons, many small formations are arranged. These small formations will not be activated at normal times. After the overall formation is activated, they will be activated at the same time.
If you pull the enemy in, you can completely trap in these endless blockades.
Moreover, these small formations can also act as formations to further stimulate the energy inside the formation in time.
Li Yi also made some plans for the Stardou Forest to distinguish the soul beasts.
In addition, in order to solve the food resource problems of those soul beasts, many crops are vigorously promoted.
At least the daily food problems of herbivorous soul beasts are basically solved by themselves.
As for those who make a living by eating meat, he is also vigorously developing animal husbandry and trying to cultivate many livestock that can grow and produce rapidly.
This can fundamentally solve the food problem of most soul beasts.
Moreover, almost every soul beast is now given to practice martial arts and starts spiritual intelligence practice. After absorbing spiritual energy day and night, there is basically no need to waste time eating.
Moreover, because of the characteristics of the Star Dou Great Forest, endless power of stars is spread and the starlight is used to rinse the body.
Even many soul beasts that have not yet transformed into shape and whose strength has not yet reached the level of being able to fast, they basically do not need to eat because of the power of stars.
Therefore, only a small part of the ranch is enough to feed most soul beasts.
"I have one thing that needs to be solved, and it will take a long time. I will come back before the college holiday. Please help me take care of the two of them during this period." Li Yi said and took a sip of tea.
An Qian heard him without asking, nodded.
She knew that Li Yi had her own affairs to solve. This matter was very big and was far away from him.
As his friend, it is actually difficult to help him with anything. Being able to help him take care of two children is already his greatest ability.
After all, what he said that day was so big that it made a healing Conra feel difficult or even helpless, so he could not control it with his own strength.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
This time, Li Yi did not hide anything and rushed over the Tiandou Empire.
At this speed, he will not be able to reach the Star Dou Forest soon.
