Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

"In principle, that is how it is."

"After all, for the common people, giving tax silver is the foundation for them to live securely..."

"Only by becoming an indispensable part will others dare not make a move... Otherwise, those who don’t follow the rules, they can be very cruel."

Song Yinghan’s words carried a profound meaning.

After Yuchi slowly nodded, she continued:

"So, let’s take Canglan City as an example."

"All the tax silver in Canglan City will be gathered into the Imperial Decree Department, meaning the money is in the hands of the Imperial Decree Department."

"The other three institutions will definitely keep a close watch on this sum of money, the three parties are responsible for supervising and restraining each other, so the final distribution is roughly the Celestial Capital Department forty percent, the Imperial Decree Department thirty percent, the Defense Department twenty percent, and the Demon-slaying Bureau ten percent."

"These are the regular Four Major Institutions, unrelated to the Observation Deck and Great Tang Prison."

"As for the Great Tang Prison and the Observation Deck, we earn our gold and silver independently. The way we profit is somewhat like that of a sect. For example, the Observation Deck I’m part of does the rouge business among the common people..."

"Have you heard of the brand ’Thousand Flowers Xuru Sheng’? It’s created by our Observation Deck, and the person behind it is my father..."

Yuchi: "..."

Song Yinghan’s words just now were simply overwhelming with information!

First, the Celestial Capital Department is really wealthy, getting forty percent of the money, no wonder they’re so powerful.

Second, the Imperial Decree Department actually has thirty percent of the money? It seems the government offices are not lacking funds, which makes sense as they also need to be responsible for building public facilities.

Third, the Defense Department, that is, constables and head constables, have twenty percent of the gold and silver. No wonder earlier Xun Xian, who loves food, made the Defense Department cry; it wasn’t that they were joking, they genuinely had no money.

Fourth, the Demon-slaying Bureau... poor, pitiful Demon-slaying Bureau, truly because the surroundings are too peaceful; it’s no wonder that the people in the Demon-slaying Bureau always like to keep company with demons. To be realistic, if there were no demons, the Demon-slaying Bureau might not have a single penny.

As for the Great Tang Prison and Observation Deck, in the eyes of outsiders, these two forces are united, but in reality, there are many Great Tang Prisons and many Observation Decks. They are in a cooperative relationship, but the gold and silver are not shared, each has to sweep in front of its own door.

"In the end, Yinghan’s father is actually in the rouge business and even created such a brand. Who would believe it if I said it out loud?!"

"I’ve really learned something today!"

In this light: "In the future, let’s see if we can establish a cooperative relationship with this ’Thousand Flowers Xuru Sheng’ rouge. For the association’s annual gift purchases, we’ll buy this rouge as a small gift to show my sincerity to my father-in-law."

Song Yinghan lowered her brown eyes, her black hair cascading down, her cheeks blushing: "It’s fine if you keep such things in mind, but don’t say them directly, otherwise, I always feel like I’m asking you to do something... honestly, I’m not, I’m just saying this to make it easier for you to understand... don’t misunderstand."

Yuchi: "Oh!"

Song the Beauty: "..."

Smilingly, Yuchi had a basic understanding of the Great Tang Prison matters related to Xufu Town:

"Then, my previous opinion about the Great Tang Prison, it’s not entirely wrong. At least I’m sure they’re here for the gold and silver in Xufu Town, they’re indeed here for these gold and silver."

And Han the Beauty also said that the Great Tang Prison won’t take a single thread from the common people, implying they can’t logically take it; every Great Tang Prison needs to operate independently, it’s practically a concept of private enterprise?! Since they’re all independently operated, what right do you have to ask Xufu Town for money, have you asked the opinions of other institutions?

"In that case... are there any rich resources around Xufu Town?" Song Yinghan speculated and asked.

"Like what?" Yuchi asked.

"Most obviously, it would be the Spirit Stone Vein, then the Immortal Herb Mountain Range, and some Blessed Lands rich in other precious materials."

"But generally speaking, the likelihood of a Spirit Stone Vein is the highest. Such Spirit Stone Veins are hidden underground and can only be found through special methods. The smallest of these veins could fetch around tens of millions of silver."

Yuchi’s head snapped up: "How much?!"

Song Yinghan blinked her beautiful eyes and confirmed:

"Tens of millions of silver, that’s the minimum... actually, depending on the size of the vein, if it’s really a large vein, breaking through tens of millions is possible, it’s just that such enormous veins are hard to discover."

"Of course, it seems like a lot, but for cultivators, the tens of millions split among so many people wouldn’t make each person wealthy all of a sudden, it’s just that this kind of thing is like picking up gold and silver out of nowhere, truly able to solve immediate needs or save many years of hardship."

"Actually, the Great Tang Prison definitely has its legitimate business, whether it’s said to be Cloud Descending Sect’s business or any other, they certainly won’t pin all their hopes on a single vein."

After listening, Yuchi’s mind was filled with just the words "tens of millions," muttering to himself things like "they didn’t tell me," "I can’t just stand by," "those who find it should get a share," and "I can’t let them take it without a fight," "these old thieves, they really have long arms" and so on.
