Chapter 206 Merit Value
The Zhang family was demoted from Qipin County to Jiupin County, which was punished.
However, the court also reserved the lowest position of the Zhang family and allowed to commit crimes and make meritorious service, which was already a reward.
It should be that the Zhang family defected to the county magistrate Xie Wenyun.
Otherwise, according to the harm caused by the Zhang family in the "Secret Realm of Lingding Cauldron", the clan was sentenced to exile on the border and served as the Immortal Dynasty for the sin and cultivation. When will the atonement end and when will it be possible to turn over?
Therefore, Zhang Junxiang had no objection at all and directly respectfully accepted the order.
And after the Zhang family, there is the "Corpsicle" Shi family.
After the outbreak of the "Demon Disaster", most of the losses in Ludong County, including the responsibility for the death and injury of nearly 100,000 civilians, were indeed counted as the county magistrate.
Although when the "Demon Disaster" broke out, the county magistrate Shi Shaofeng was still in the "Secret Realm of Lingding Ding", according to the convention of the Immortal Dynasty of the Great Jin Dynasty, the officials in the local yamen were selected from the family of the chief officials and appointed them as local officials.
Just like Liang Zhaohuang was appointed as the river inspector of Ludong County, he was a ninth-rank official appointed by the court.
His eldest brother and second sister were appointed by the local government as deputy inspector of the river channel in Ludong County, and they were all local officials of the ninth rank.
Even the many officials and soldiers in the River Inspection Department were appointed by them by the Liang family.
Similarly, Shi Shaofeng served as the county magistrate of Ludong County and was an eighth-rank official appointed by the court.
Under him, there were several eighth-rank local officials in the county magistrate's yamen, as well as many officials and soldiers, and they were also monks from the "Corpsicle" Shi family.
It can be said that the power of the entire Ludong County County Magistrates is controlled by the Shi family of "Corps".
Such rules certainly made all the families in the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty fully possess the real power of the local area, but once something happened, these families that completely possess the real power of the local area naturally could not escape responsibility.
Therefore, under the "demonic disaster", the losses of Ludong County and the deaths and injuries of nearly 100,000 civilians must bear these responsibilities.
The difference is just how much responsibility you bear.
Now it seems that it is obvious that in the battle with the county magistrate "Xie Wenyun", some of the forces behind the Shi family and the Shi family have finally lost, and now they have put most of the blame on Shi Shaofeng and the Shi family.
In contrast, the responsibilities that county magistrate Xie Wenyun needs to bear are undoubtedly much less, accounting for only a small part.
Because of this crime, the Shi family was fined a large number of spirit stones, cut the first-level rank, and Shi Shaofeng was removed from the position of Ludong County County.
In the "Golden List Title" three days ago, the Shi family chose to advance from eighth-rank county tycoon to seventh-rank family.
Now, under the imperial edict, the Shi family was cut first-level and was cut back to the wealthy families of eighth-grade counties again, and the losses were not huge.
However, Shi Shaofeng's position as a county magistrate was removed, which could be regarded as achieving the purpose of county magistrate Xie Wenyun.
When Liang Zhaohuang heard this punishment, he immediately thought of the incident when Mr. Wu came to the Liang family to persuade him to advance.
"So, this position as a county magistrate in Ludong County will belong to our Liang family?"
Liang Zhaohuang couldn't help but have thoughts in his heart, and after the punishments against Zhang and Shi families were announced in the imperial edict, the rewards began to be announced.
After all, this time, a demon cultivator appeared in the "Spiritual Tripod Secret Realm", which almost destroyed the "Spiritual Tripod Secret Realm" in Ludong County, turning Ludong County into a dead place.
The wealthy men in Ludong County joined forces to kill the demon cultivators, preventing the destruction of the "Secret Realm of Spiritual Cauldron", destroying and saving Ludong County, which naturally requires rewards.
Only with punishment and reward is the right way.
The Lin family of "Heijing", "Lingye Fu", Ye family of "Yunshui", Lu family of "Huo Crow", Wang family of Liang family, and the wealthy families of five counties were rewarded.
This reward includes the national fortune of the Immortal Dynasty, the blessing of human fortune, and material rewards.
Among them, the blessing of the national fortune of the Immortal Dynasty and the human fortune was rewarded among the wealthy families in several counties when they were named "Golden List" three days ago.
And this time, the imperial edict mainly talks about material rewards.
It mainly includes spirit stones, spiritual materials and merit values.
Of course, there is no need to say much about spiritual stones and spiritual materials, they are all hard currency.
As for merit, it is even more rare than spiritual stones, spiritual materials, and other things that can be directly exchanged for treasures from the treasury of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.
These treasures, including spirit stones, spiritual materials, spiritual medicines, spiritual pills, magic weapons, talismans, formations, etc., and the most important thing is inheritance.
Including the inheritance of practice and various skills.
If you want to obtain meritorious values, you need to make important contributions to the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.
Generally speaking, the most common way to obtain meritorious values is to join the border army, defend the border for the country, and even expand territory.
However, generally speaking, those who can organize troops to defend and expand borders at least have the power of the county clans.
When the Liang family was still a poor family, they sent their family children to participate in the army organized by the Wang family, the "Chiping" of the Junwang family, to earn meritorious points for the Wang family, in exchange for a foundation-building inheritance suitable for the family.
As for the county wealthy families, they usually develop within the Immortal Dynasty and maintain local stability and prosperity. They rarely have the chance to obtain meritorious values.
This time, several county tycoons prevented the blood demon from destroying the "Spiritual Cauldron Secret Realm" and saving Ludong County. It was no less than the great achievements of defending the border and expanding the border, so they were rewarded with merit.
Even so, among the rewards, spiritual stones are the main ones, spiritual materials are the supplement, and the merit value is the least.
Among the imperial edicts, the rewards are basically divided into three levels. The Lin family, Lu family, and Wang family are one level, with the lowest reward; above, the Ye family is the second level, with a slightly higher reward; finally, the Liang family has the third level, with the most rewards.
This time, the Liang family's contribution to preventing the blood demon from destroying the secret realm in the "Spiritual Cauldron Secret Realm" was undoubtedly the greatest, so the reward was the most.
There is no need to say much about the spirit stones and spiritual materials, which can match the Liang family’s three years of harvest now.
However, what the Liang family values most is undoubtedly the merit value. This time the court rewarded 500 merit value.
It seems very rare, but it is already very rare and important for the Liang family.
At the beginning, the Liang family was still a poor family. They sent their family members to participate in the "Chiding" Wang family's army to fight and fight on the border, and wanted to earn meritorious points so that they could use the Wang family to exchange for the foundation-building inheritance suitable for the family.
At that time, the family also checked the exchange list, which is suitable for the Liang family. It is the most common inheritance of foundation-building for the five elements attributes, or the inheritance of the talented spiritual arts after practice. At least it requires more than 300 merits.
As a result, several children of the Liang family died on the border, including their eldest uncle Liang Xuexin. After decades of hard work, they failed to save up 300 merit points and failed to exchange for a suitable foundation-building inheritance for the family.
From this we can see that the value of the 500 meritorious values obtained this time is worth.
Of course, the Liang family has now inherited the "Five Qi Lotus Sutra", and Liang Zhaohuang also had the opportunity to suddenly realize the prototype of the "Five Elements Creation Body" in the "Secret Realm of Lingding Ding", and was confident that he could perfect the most suitable practice technique for the Liang family.
