My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 180 Xiyuan Farmers Market
"There are still two rounds of ammunition in there - you did your job well, now it's our turn."

Yu Dayou took out the psychic gun in his hand, whose barrel was burned red by the hot spiritual energy pellets - the full name is the spiritual energy powered flame firing gun.

Each time, the user needs to inject spiritual energy and charge it before it can be used.

Theoretically, as long as the maximum power is not exceeded, it can be fired continuously indefinitely.

However, due to material issues, generally after firing ten shots in a row, the response speed of the array patterns will slow down due to overload, and the aura conversion efficiency will also decrease.

Yu Dayou had fired nine shots just now, and now he still had two to three rounds of ammunition in the gun.

He placed the weapon, which had been temporarily unstable due to overheating, into the young man's hand.

He took out a second brand new psychic gun from his waist.

Praise for the bravery of these mortals to explore the road without fear of life and death.

After saying that, he held the sword in one hand and walked towards the sharks in front of him who were being beaten back steadily by two forbidden soldiers in the narrow cave.

There is not much space in the narrow cave for these warriors who usually hold halberds to fight.

However, as members of the military household system, many of these soldiers who have guarded the palace for generations and served in the Beijing army have received comprehensive military education from their families since childhood.

The heavy iron sword was waving in his hand, like a strong wind, harvesting pieces of flesh and blood of the sharks.

Yu Dayou joined in. He held a sword in one hand and used a fire blunderbuss to cooperate.

With one shot, he knocked away a shark that was trying to get behind the Imperial Guard for a sneak attack, and then used the royal sword to cut off the shark's ferocious, charred head.

He noticed some obvious gaps on the two-finger-thick heavy blade in the hand of the imperial guard beside him.

No matter how heavy and thick these ordinary iron tools are, they are still ordinary soldiers.

The blood of the shark's scales can still cause obvious damage to it.

Although these damages do not affect the use of the weapon in this battle, it is obvious that in another high-intensity battle, the only way out for this weapon is to rebuild it.

"The Northern Defense Force just came to report that there are sacrifices in this tribe——"

Yu Dayou conveyed to them the report just given by Zhu Xiangyang.

He stared at the heavy sword of the Imperial Guard beside him.

"When the first batch of black iron swords from the Ministry of Industry are completed, I will give priority to applying to the inner court for you."

It was a new type of material specially allocated by the emperor from the inner court and given to the Ministry of Industry and Qin Tianjian to jointly cast for the imperial soldiers.

Because the process is complex, the material is too strong, and forging is difficult, so although the Ministry of Industry places the highest priority on the forging of this batch of weapons, its output is still quite unoptimistic.

Probably only more than [-] high-quality heavy weapons can be stably produced every year.

However, I heard that the emperor had recently restocked tens of thousands of various black iron weapons in the inner court, and it was said that they were going to be rewarded in batches to meritorious ministers.

These newly issued psychic guns are one of them.

Looking at the charred corpses of the sharks that fell to the ground, Yu Dayou was secretly speechless.

I don’t know where your Majesty got these exquisite weapons.

As for the Ministry of Industry?Those craftsmen who can't even figure out how to paint armor are definitely not of this level.

Although he couldn't figure out the origin of these weapons, Yu Dayou still felt that the more these weapons, the better.After all, he is just a soldier. The craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry may have a huge sense of crisis about whether they will lose their jobs in the future because of their extremely low efficiency compared to the emperor. But as a forbidden soldier, he only needs to consider whether these weapons are easy to use.

"Thank you-"

The forbidden soldier next to him, who was completely shrouded in face armor, nodded, swung his sword to cut off a water spear that was shot at him and others, and looked at the panicked sharks running away in the cave not far away. The man was waving a cane, looking at the hill of shark corpses in front of him and others with malicious eyes, and mumbling sacrifices.

He raised the heavy sword horizontally.

Just like those pre-Qin warriors during the Shang and Zhou dynasties who had to choose to increase the weight and width of their weapons due to lack of forging skills.

Yu Dayou was not offended by the brevity of his answer. Competent people will be respected everywhere.

Looking at the arrogant pile of shark corpses in front of him, many sharks were beheaded directly by him with exquisite techniques, so as to retain the precious solution in their heads.

Taoist scholars in the Qintian Prison have confirmed that the brain marrow in the shark's head is a rare good medicine in the world. It can nourish the body, activate the spirit, prolong life, etc., and it rarely has any side effects.

It has an effect even on these forbidden troops, although it is not as exaggerated as the effect of using human flesh and bones on mortals.

But after taking it, it can greatly alleviate the unquenchable hunger and bloodlust in the hearts of the Forbidden Army soldiers who went on missions in various places after leaving the Soul Locking Formation in Xiyuan.

Therefore, even among the Forbidden Army, they still have considerable purchasing power.

Those Imperial Guards who rotated back from the southwest on a regular basis praised the brains of these sharks, and they did not hesitate to use many precious organs and materials of southwest monsters to acquire and hoard them from the Eastern Imperial Guards, resulting in new Imperial Guards being sent to each other. When Southwest followed Luo An, Qiu Luan and others to eliminate demons, the brains of these sharks were often sold out quickly.

Of course, Zhu Houcong was aware of the fact that the Imperial Guards were doing business in private.

So after the little animals in the Leopard Room, many of the shops that his dear eldest brother had built in Xiyuan by the eunuchs to imitate the outside market were also inherited by Zhu Houcong as a matter of course and renovated. , expand the scale.

Thanks to our dear Majesty Wu Zong, he can always leave a valuable legacy to Zhu Houcong in unexpected places.

Although Zhu Houcong had just ascended the throne, the courtiers who had long hated this had repeatedly urged the demolition of these places of lewdness in the palace. However, adhering to the principle of waste utilization, Zhu Houcong said that it would be a pity to demolish the capital after it was built. , and now it has been reused by Zhu Houcong.

Through the supervision of the school, the Chief of Ceremonies selected many smart and literate people from the palace maids and eunuchs, and arranged for them to be on duty among them to purchase the items from the hands of the imperial guards.

Regardless of whether it is Zhu Houcong's style, it is undoubtedly too animalistic to strictly prohibit and ask the imperial guards to hand over all their income.

Zhu Houcong chose to compromise and collect some handling fees from the Qintian Prison and the Forbidden Army. This is no problem, right?

Although I don't have to bear any costs, Xiyuan is a royal garden, and I won't ask for land rent from Zhu Houcong. Empress Dowager Chiang and the inner court pay their wages to the palace maids and eunuchs. The most dangerous collection and transportation work is done by the Imperial Guard Qin Tianjian in various places. The majority of the profits belong to Zhu Houcong personally——

Well, this is indeed a bit of a beast to think about.

Sometimes when he looked at the imperial monks who were so moved by the emperor's reward, Zhu Houcong felt a little embarrassed.

After all, the money comes a bit too easily.

Looking at the perfect shark heads that could be cut with just a mortal iron heavy sword in front of him, Yu Dayou couldn't help but admire in his heart.

This person's swordsmanship is probably not inferior to mine.

"This shark tribe is a little weird——"

The soldier beside him felt the obviously abnormal cold current in the air and said solemnly.

"Are you sure this is the only one here?"
