Chapter 556 Consecration
It has been more than two years since he came to this world.
Gu Shang allocated his time reasonably, spending 1/3 on improving his strength and the remaining half on managing his subordinates' power.
With the assistance of various resources in his hands and his own strong comprehension bonus, he made rapid progress in two years and directly raised his cultivation to the peak of concentration.
At this level, his strength became even stronger, and his ability to control water also improved greatly.
He can already transform water elements out of thin air.
Of course, it is just a simple transformation of water, and there is no way to design the more subtle atomic and molecular fields.
Now he can make water enter the enemy's brain in a moment.
In these two years, he made several choices and received corresponding rewards. Most of these rewards were physical bonuses, which made his comprehensive strength infinitely improved, far surpassing the same level.
After two years of various layouts, his industry has covered the entire world, and almost every city in the four countries has his spies.
Basically all the middle and lower-level forces have been secretly corrupted by him.
Under the nearly unlimited money offensive, almost no force can stop his infiltration. Only the top few big families, big sects and some religions have accurate goals and action plans, and will not make huge concessions for such low-level reasons as money.
Despite this, Gu Shang has established normal trade relations with these large forces.
It is precisely because of this relationship that he got the method to break through the concentration.
Looking at the back of Zhao Laosan leaving, Gu Shang slowly stood up.
"It seems that this ownerless world is quite simple..."
In the years since he came to this world, except for the third prince Duan Hongyu, he has not met other transcendents.
However, even the third prince, under his various subtle observations, still did not find evidence that the other party was transcendent.
But he will not let it go easily. After all, when the two met for the first time, his induction in the dark had already told him that the other party had the breath of the origin.
The concentration of this origin is definitely not simple.

……
Afternoon.
"Your Highness, the Third Prince, no, Your Highness, the Crown Prince!"
"You have received the order, and I will go to the public bus now."
In a small courtyard on the edge of Kyoto, an old eunuch in a dark official robe nodded slightly to the Third Prince.
Duan Hongyu heard his voice and came back to his senses from the previous shock.
Holding the imperial edict in his hand, his heart was so excited! !
I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that he would actually have the opportunity to become the crown prince and the next emperor.
"I really troubled Eunuch Li, and I troubled you to make such a trip."
Duan Hongyu said with a friendly smile.
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it."
Eunuch Li waved his hands repeatedly.
"This is all because of your highness's good performance, otherwise His Majesty would not have chosen you so easily."
"By the way, Your Highness, I have a piece of advice, I wonder if you are willing to listen."
"Eunuch Li, please feel free to say it."
The eunuch surnamed Li pondered for a moment, and slowly said: "Your Majesty is obsessed with power, but he is also very clear about his physical condition."
He only said this, and then hurriedly left with his hand in the distance.
Duan Hongyu chewed these two sentences carefully.
But no matter from which angle he analyzed it, he still couldn't figure out what the other party meant.
At this moment, a confidant hurried over
"Your Highness, Gang Leader Zhang sent someone to invite Your Highness to meet at Baihua Tower tonight."
Hearing the three words Zhang helped, Duan Hongyu's face was slightly bad.
He handed the imperial edict in his hand to the confidant.
"Tell him that I have something to do tonight, so I won't go first."
Now he has become the prince.
For Zhang Goudan, he feels it is necessary to cut off.
"Pay attention to your tone, I really have something to do."
Worried that his subordinates would speak too aggressively, Duan Hongyu emphasized again.
Zhang Goudan has given him a lot of support in the past few years, and he doesn't want to throw away this treasure pot so easily.
But it is indeed inappropriate for such a large amount of wealth to be controlled by an outsider. It seems necessary to have a good talk with the other party.
"Yes!"
...
...
...
Evening.
Baihua Tower.
Gu Shang sat in a private room deep in the third floor, drinking tea and eating dishes.
Zhao Laosan stood silently beside him, the atmosphere was a little depressing and solemn.
"Sir, this third prince is too bad. After becoming the crown prince, his attention to you immediately dropped by more than one level."
"Fortunately, you have been prepared for a long time, otherwise you will really be backfired by this waste."
After standing for a while, Zhao Laosan couldn't help but complain.
This just received the imperial edict and rejected their invitation to the banquet. Not only that, this third prince also made their relationship clear in many ways.
What a piece of shit.
"The emperor is the most ruthless. When he was weak, we were his confidants and right-hand men, but after he became the crown prince, we became his burden."
"As the next successor of a country, he doesn't need to pay attention to any one party. All he needs to do is balance."
The most important aspect of the emperor's art is to balance the relationship between the various forces.
Generally, people who have mastered this method will not be incompetent.
Similarly, at the end of many dynasties, contemporary monarchs can easily favor one person, whether it is a minister, a eunuch, or a concubine in the palace.
The various forces under his command must not appear to be dominant, and they must always ensure that there are conflicts between them. They can form alliances, but not complete alliances.
Although Zhao Laosan understood this truth, he was still unhappy.
"How is the matter I ordered done?"
Zhao Laosan hurriedly poured another cup of hot tea for Gu Shang: "Tomorrow morning, the third prince will officially enter the palace. The corresponding personnel are ready, just waiting for the prince's order."
Gu Shang nodded.
"Although we have many opportunities, we still have to pay attention to one thing to ensure that there is no risk."
After that, he continued to eat and drink tea.
In fact, at this point, he was a little overwhelmed.
The orthodox way to obtain the origin is to improve one's own strength. When one's strength reaches the peak of this world, one can formally contact the origin, comprehend, and dig into the origin.
With his current ability, he obviously has not reached this level.
But in this world, concentration is already the peak.
He cannot obtain any information about what realm is above.
In this case, he can only continue to develop his own strength. Maybe after mastering all the forces of this country, he can find an answer.
After all, in many worlds, those top-secret information are in the hands of the top people.
