Because at that mont, Yu Ziqing held a bit too much authority.
He could even forcibly strip a Prefectural Governor of his power.
According to the general rules of the Divine Dynasty, regardless of how many positions and Big Seals Yu Ziqing held as a Prefectural Governor or County Magistrate,
He could not forcibly strip a peer Prefectural Governor of their position.
Only the Emperor Dui, the Three Divisions Commander, and the Faceless Leader could forcibly strip a Prefectural Governor of their position when they had sufficient reason.
Previously, Yu Ziqing had speculated that to avoid putting all their eggs in one basket, Dadui had long since divided the power of the Divine Dynasty.
Therefore, when the chief director exposed the Yin Family's sealing of the Dadui Jade Seal, Yu Ziqing remained unperturbed.
Even if they obtained it, it wouldn't be of much use.
At most, they could divert attention, diverting many people's focus; otherwise, overturning the situation was certainly hopeless.
Yu Ziqing did not rush to do anything; each day, he simply listened to one Devil Thought after another in the Despair Abyss, completing the basic information corresponding to each individual.
He let the people outside search and toil.
Only when they hit a wall would they realize, oh, they still needed the help of the people from Jinlan Mountain in such asures.
Ti passed little by little, and in a blink, three months had gone by.
Yu Ziqing received an invitation from Su Li to discuss so matters.
When Yu Ziqing arrived at Almsgiving Town and t Su Li, he realized that Su Li was also on a mission to invite him.
The first batch of filth buckets released had problematic quality, resulting in potential hazards after continuous long-term full load usage.
Moreover, the quantity of filth buckets proved insufficient.
Over the years, those in Lihuo Institute had experinted and developed so things that allowed many to see the benefits, reducing the resistance to promotion significantly.
The greatest resistance was that the filth buckets were monopolized by Jinlan Mountain.
But now, the filth absorbed by the filth buckets left behind fertilizer without the slightest bit of toxins, and the planting of so low-grade Spiritual dicine and Jade Rice showed unexpectedly good results, making so people impatient.
The cost saved, used to maintain the Grade of the spirit field with Spirit Jade, amounted to an astronomical figure.
Even though the consumption of the lowest-grade spirit fields was not large, the sheer number of low-grade spirit fields was overwhelming.
When totaled, it was sothing no one could ignore.
After rigorous experintation on both small and large scales and several years of continuous observation,
The resistance grew smaller and smaller, reaching a point where no one could stop it, for the benefits were too significant.
Cutting off a person's financial resources was akin to killing their parents.
The filth buckets were indeed monopolized by Jinlan Mountain, but more benefits stayed in Dali.
With difficulty adding pressure, and needing to discuss the procurent of sweet rain, the most important thing was to ease relations.
It required soone from the court, hence Su Li, the official with the best personal relationship with Yu Ziqing, beca this liaison.
Su Li, speaking earnestly and with a bitter heart, even disclosed so inside information in advance.
The embryo of the filth buckets was completely handled by Dali, with all material costs borne by Dali.
Jinlan Mountain only needed to complete the most critical steps.
Because the items Yu Ziqing provided indeed lacked in quality.
Appearing rather generous, Yu Ziqing neither agreed nor disagreed, saying he would see after going.
Seeds planted for many years had finally reached the ti of harvest, and with soone stepping forward, Yu Ziqing found it would be a disservice to his conscience not to take advantage in stride.
Upon reaching the Imperial City of Dali, this ti, unlike last, brought a more solemn approach.
The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue went a hundred miles out of the city himself to greet them, and upon seeing Yu Ziqing, this emaciated Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue imdiately stood up with a broad smile to et him.
"This is the young and talented Qing Ziyu from Jinlan Mountain, I presu. I am Jiang Baigei."
Then he saw Yu Ziqing, standing at a distance, face solemn, and first took out a Compass, aiming it at Jiang Baigei.
This was the Third Generation Compass created anew by Yang for Yu Ziqing. Its capability hadn't been much enhanced; instead, its camouflage capability for the Compass itself had been primarily strengthened.
Once confirming that the person wasn't an incarnation or the true form, Yu Ziqing imdiately put away the Compass, offering a cupped-hand salute.
"Please do not take offense, sir, as Evil Dao Demons are rampant. It's unsettling not to greet this way first upon eting. Please try it as well, as it can greatly ease unnecessary guard between strangers many tis."
After Yu Ziqing finished speaking with a smile, he did not take out the Compass again. Jiang Baigei's expression remained unchanged as he nodded in agreent.
"Brother Qing speaks rightly. I should be older than you, so you needn't call sir; it's too formal. Just call Big Brother."
"Alright, Big Brother Jiang."
Yu Ziqing had heard long of this figure; when the Crown Prince sent people westward for disaster relief, this elder brother was one of the leaders.
By all expectations, he would be the next Minister of Revenue.
He appeared not too old and could likely hold the position for many years.
In strict terms, the matter of the filth buckets fell under the Ministry of Industry's responsibility, as all Dali's constructions and Magical Treasures fell under their purview.
However, having the Ministry of Revenue take over wasn't problematic, depending on whose wrist was stronger.
The result of maneuvering here beca clear as the Ministry of Revenue was to handle it, with the one overseeing being favored by the Crown Prince.
But looking at this figure's form, thin and with a slightly oversized official robe, he virtually embodied the literal aning of "sleeves swept clean."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they were taken to a place called Chongwen Building, where Dali hosted distinguished guests.
