Chapter 204: Open the furnace

The number of places on the Humanity List has increased to one hundred thousand, further increasing the number of free places in Ying Yi's hands. In recent months, the number of people who have increased is less than 3,000.

The increase in this part of the quota is mainly for the newly appointed officials of the State Mu Yamen and the Imperial Law Department. As the vacant positions in the two major yamens are gradually filled, a list of names is sent to Ying Yi every few days.

There were less than 1,300 government officials listed on the humanitarian roll before. During this period, they had increased to more than 4,000, surpassing other departments such as craftsmen and ranking second only to the army.

This is a very normal trend - in Ying Yi's plan, the number of officials needed by the entire Henan prefectures and counties should be about 20,000 in the first phase. It’s just started now, and in the next period of time, the number of people on the official list will increase sharply.

According to Ying Yi's requirements for national control, 10,000 of the 20,000 people were officials at the village chief level.

The total number of surviving people in Henan is estimated to be around seven million. Each county, prefectural city, and state city Kaifeng will absorb a population of more than 300, which means that there will be about 4 million non-urban village residents.

These four million people, on average, are roughly 400 people per village, forming about 10,000 resettlement villages and producing about 10,000 grassroots officials at the village chief level.

There are 10,000 civilian official quotas left in the government offices at the town, county, prefecture, and state levels.

When the number of civil servants on the humanitarian list reaches about 20,000, it means that Ying Yi's control over the land of Henan Province has been strengthened to an unparalleled level.

This is Ying Yi's ultimate goal.

Any place conquered in the future will carry out similar rationing according to this standard.

In this way, the so-called shortcomings of imperial power not going to the countryside are not a problem at all for Ying Yi.

Even a village chief's achievements can be clearly seen whether they are increasing or decreasing, good or bad. Who else in this world can hide their small actions from Ying Yi?

Compared with the data involved in the Humanity Qi Number, Ying Yi himself has also changed. Since this period of time, Ying Yi has not relaxed his practice. Although he has not devoted himself to the true spiritual number, every day is the time to carve the Yuan Fu, and the energy and blood in his body are also surging, secretly flushing and washing the acupoints, and developing the acupoints. Potential, increase physical attributes to 14.

The soul has increased to 10, and there is no room for more for the time being.

There is not much to say about body and mind. On the other hand, the number of true spirits required is ten times that of the body and soul. Second, after adding 3 true spirits, Ying Yi has vaguely realized some of the wonderful features of true spirits!

The existence of the true spirit is mysterious and mysterious. Before adding some points, Ying Yi did not understand the form and place of existence of true spirits.

Now we know that the existence of true spirit seems to be the foundation of spiritual life. He found that after adding some true spirit, his soul became more stable, and his body seemed to have more spirituality.

It seems that the existence of the divine soul is based on the true spirit. Comparing the soul to a house, then the true spirit is the foundation. Ying Yi's soul can't be increased until it reaches 10 points. Now he vaguely knows that it may be a limitation of the true spirit.

If the true spirit is strong enough, the foundation stone can be stable, and the soul that exists as a house can be built higher.

But for the time being, it seems that it is still in an adaptation stage. I think after some time, after the soul has adapted to the growth of the true spirit, I should be able to continue to add more souls.

However, Ying Yi vaguely felt that at this point, purely adding points to the true spirit number was not the best way to grow the soul - just like physical enhancement can now be relied on to independently develop the potential of acupoints, he found that in inscribing Yuan Fu and understanding In the process of realizing the true meaning of Yuan Fu, the soul also undergoes subtle changes.

Perhaps the data has not yet been reflected, but this is an accumulation of bits and pieces. As long as you find the method, over time, your soul may grow on its own.

Of course, in terms of himself, Ying Yi is not anxious. Because he has yet to encounter an existence that can threaten him. Now in his eyes, a monk like Zhenren Li can't stand a single finger from him.

In comparison, development power is more important.

For example, the smelting of gold and yuan alloys.

On the last day of August, Jinyuan Alloy's production line was finally completed.

In the valley of more than ten acres connected to the valley where Di Jiyi is located, three huge Yuan vessels stand. These three equipments stand in the shape of a triangle. The largest one is the smelting equipment, which is more than five feet high and seventy feet wide. The overall shape is a short column.

The forging and shaping components are slightly smaller in size. The forging component is like a cauldron with a lid, while the shaping component is like a honeycomb.

There is only a bridge connecting the three units. The surrounding areas are newly built various raw material warehouses, finished product warehouses, and attics where managers and craftsmen work and rest.

The overall color of this production line is metallic gray, and the external structure is thick but simple and bright. At a glance, all you can see are dustpan-sized cloud patterns on the surface, showing a classical charm in ultra-modern colors.

These three pieces of equipment are as if they are one body, with no gaps visible at all. Just like the Octagon Pagoda and the Diji Yi, when the Yuan vessel is formed and the Yuan talisman combination takes effect, a trace of Yuan Qi is activated to completely smooth out the gaps between each structure.

"It's such a magnificent miracle, incredible."

Li Zhenren and others were all dumbfounded.

Ying Yi smiled and said: "It's not over yet. Although the Yuanqi is strong and durable, it cannot withstand the wind and rain."

Jiang Xi said on the side: "Build a house to cover the roof to avoid wind and rain."

Ying Yi nodded: "Yes."

Then he asked: "Are all kinds of raw materials available?"

On the side, Pu Tiechui said with a red face: "I have told you that everything is ready. The raw material warehouse is full and can start work at any time."

"good."

Ying Yi smiled and said: "Then first make it in a furnace and check the quality."

Ying Yi left the specific affairs of the Jinyuan alloy production line to the craftsmen, and Pu Tiechui was responsible for it. The Mohist Affairs Department dispatched officials to assist and supervise.

Ying Yi has already taught all the specific operation methods, and Pu Tiechui and others already know it well.

Now we just need to get started.

With a few shouts, the craftsmen were in place, and the slave workers in the slave labor camp loaded the raw materials into bucket trucks and transported them to the smelting equipment. Pu Tiechui, who had obtained the operating authority granted by Ying Yi, immediately opened the element. After a slight buzzing, the cloud pattern on the surface of the smelting element flashed with strange light. Three raw material injection ports of different sizes opened independently, and the slave workers Truckloads of raw materials are put in.

"There is a specific Yuanfu port between the smelting Yuanqi and the Bafang Pagoda." Ying Yi looked at the brilliant smelting Yuanqi and said to Li Zhenren and others beside him: "This Yuanfu port requires my authorization. Only with authorization can it be used." Turn it on. Once turned on, it will actively connect with the Octagonal Tower to form a Yuan Qi connection, and the Yuan Qi absorbed and stored by the Octagonal Tower will be transmitted to the smelting element."

The mystery of this kind of Yuanfu port, Ying Yi knew it before but didn't know why. He completed the operation process with the help of the great characters in his mind.
