Double penetration: This Three Kingdoms has dragon energy

Chapter 50: Seal of the Taishan Governor
Shi A laughed and said, "It is the official seal of the governor of Taishan County!
When His Majesty appointed you as the lieutenant of Mount Tai, he had already promised that after you wiped out the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai, he would appoint you as the prefect of Mount Tai!

Now that you have not yet wiped out the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai, it is not convenient to directly appoint you as the governor of Mount Tai.

But the young master has made great contributions to the country and eliminated two thousand Xiliang cavalry rebels, so he deserves a reward.

So His Majesty ordered me to deliver the official seal of the Taishan prefect to you first and hand it over to you, young master!
With this seal in hand, although you are not the governor of Mount Tai, you can still perform the duties of the governor of Mount Tai!"

"Your Majesty is wise! I am deeply honored and moved to tears by the grace of Your Majesty to bestow the seal of the Taishan prefect." Ji Qiu bowed in the direction of Luoyang City and said with great emotion.

This was not entirely an act. He was really a little moved by Liu Hong.

In the world of Dragon Qi and the Three Kingdoms, the official seal of a governor is extraordinary.

To put it bluntly, the value of this prefect's seal may be greater than the value of the prefect's position!
In today's world, many local governors who are officially appointed by the Han court do not have the official seals of the governors!

The reason for this situation is related to the issue of dragon energy distribution.

The dragon energy can be collected by controlling the body and influencing the mind.

But for a dynasty, how does it collect dragon energy?

There are also two aspects.

One is to control the bodies of the people through local officials and armies.

The second is to promote the dynasty's orthodox ideas to influence the people's spirit.

The dragon energy obtained by controlling the body naturally belongs to the officials in various places.

If these officials are strictly managed by the court, they will submit more dragon energy; if the management is lax, they will intercept more dragon energy.

The dragon energy gained from influencing the spirit will be stored in the prefect's official seal, and then divided into 30% and 70% with the emperor's jade seal.

Thirty percent belongs to the imperial seal, and seventy percent is kept in the official seal of the prefect.

During the heyday of the dynasty, because the imperial court had strict management over local officials and collected too much dragon energy from the people's bodies, the imperial court would give the prefectural seals to local prefects and let the prefects use the dragon energy in the seals.

However, as the dynasty declined, the central government became increasingly powerless in its management of local officials, and the dragon energy collected from the people's bodies became less and less. Naturally, the dragon energy in the prefect's seal had to be taken away.

Therefore, by the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, especially since Liu Hong started selling official positions and titles, the imperial court no longer granted official seals to local governors.

Liu Hong thought very clearly.

Anyway, none of the local physical dragon energy could reach him.

Then he might as well take away all the spiritual dragon energy.

So let alone now, even if Ji Qiu really became the prefect of Mount Tai in the future, he never expected Liu Hong to really bestow the prefect's seal upon him.

But he never expected that Liu Hong would give him the official seal of the prefect before he even became the prefect of Mount Tai.

This really made him inexplicably moved!

Of course, Ji Qiu also knew why Liu Hong was so generous.

Firstly, the victory in this battle once again enhanced his status in Liu Hong's heart.

This made Liu Hong have higher expectations of him and he was willing to provide more resources and make greater investments.

The second reason was that this battle completely exposed his strength to the eyes of the Yuan family and other aristocratic families.

Previously, the Yuan family and the aristocratic families did not know that the Yuan family’s military camp was destroyed by him, so they could not help but look down on him.

But now that he has personally wiped out two thousand Xiliang cavalry, I'm afraid no one will look down on him anymore!
The consequence of not taking it lightly is that they will devote more energy and strength to dealing with Ji Qiu.

Therefore, Liu Hong was worried that his sharp sword would be broken by the aristocratic family camp headed by the Yuan family.

Therefore, we need to further strengthen Ji Qiu's strength.

But so what?

The official seal of the prefect really exists.

The benefits that Ji Qiu obtained were also real.

Being clear about rewards and punishments is a necessary condition for an excellent leader.

Liu Hong's ability to possess such qualities shows that he was at least a qualified emperor. Unfortunately, his health was not good and he did not have much time left.

Otherwise, maybe this could extend the Han's life for a few more years!

Ji Qiu shook his head and placed his palm on the Taishan Taishou Seal to feel the amount of dragon energy in it.

It’s about 1400 points of dragon energy.

Based on this data, and according to the calculation that all the spiritual dragon energy in Taishan County should be divided into 30% and 70% between the jade seal and the prefect's official seal, all the spiritual dragon energy collected in Taishan County is 2000 points.

During the late Han Dynasty, the total population of Taishan County was approximately 40.

Every citizen has 10 points of dragon energy in his body.

A total of 400 million dragon energy points.

Therefore, they contributed 0.05% of the total dragon energy in the body!

The princes can harvest the dragon energy of the people and can receive up to 1%.

Among them, spiritual dragon energy and physical dragon energy each account for 0.5%.

Now, the people of Taishan County only provide 0.05% of the spiritual dragon energy to the court. This shows how much the prestige of the Han court has declined among the common people...

But even so, it is still a huge income for Ji Qiu.

Before Ji Qiu conquered the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, he had 2,000 9th-grade intermediate halberd warriors and 5,000 logistics battalions under his command, but the total amount of dragon energy they provided was only 540 points.

Because the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had just surrendered, and because of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry's inherent nature of being a mother who only cares about the milk, even if Ji Qiu provided generous treatment, he still could not increase the dragon energy harvesting ratio too much.

At this time, only 0.35% of the total dragon energy can be harvested, which is 43 points of dragon energy.

In addition, Ji Qiu himself is an eighth-grade junior scholar and has 21 points of dragon energy in his body.

So the total amount of dragon energy he currently possesses is 604 points.

The 1400 points of dragon energy in the seal of the Taishan prefect are more than twice the dragon energy he himself possesses!

In the Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms, dragon energy is combat power and productivity!

Specifically speaking, as long as Ji Qiu has enough dragon energy, he can produce enough dragon steel, and then exchange it for enough modern funds, and then use the modern funds to purchase a large amount of resources...

Luoyang City, Taifu Mansion.

The low-key, luxurious and meaningful main hall was packed with a bustling crowd.

They are all core members of the Yuan family in Luoyang City.

The head of the family, Yuan Wei, and several leading figures among the princes, including Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu, were all among them.

"Snapped"

Yuan Wei slapped Yuan Shao hard on the face, causing him to spin twice on the spot, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"Who gave you the courage to mobilize two thousand Xiliang cavalrymen to the outskirts of Luoyang for a personal vendetta?"

"Do you know how much trouble this has brought to my Yuan family?"

"I have planned for many years, but it was almost destroyed by a brat like you!"

"Do you want to die?!" Yuan Wei stared at Yuan Shao with a cold look and scolded.

Ji Qiu, the newly appointed Taishan County Magistrate of the imperial court, annihilated two thousand Xiliang cavalry rebels outside the city of Luoyang.

This matter has been announced to the world by Liu Hongzhao, and everyone in Luoyang City knows about it.

Originally, Yuan Wei was still wondering which private army this was that was killed by the emperor's henchmen.

Two thousand Xiliang cavalrymen, this is not a small number. This noble family is likely to suffer serious damage.

I wonder if there is any opportunity that the Yuan family can take advantage of.

But they never expected that these two thousand Xiliang cavalrymen were actually from their Yuan family!
