After dealing with various matters in the ocean and informing the location of Soul Beast Island to Neiji and Chixi, Mo Lin returned to Gengxin City.

I have been outside for a month, so I should go back and fulfill my responsibilities no matter what.

As soon as he returned to Gengxin City, Mo Lin saw the various reports piled up on his desk, which made him dazed for a while.

Fortunately, it has basically been reviewed, and it is more of a report here, and most of them just write about the daily work situation, nothing major.

However, while looking at it, there was still a report that caught Mo Lin's attention.

Mo Lin picked up the report and said two words in it in surprise, "Tang San".

In an ordinary hotel in Gengxin City, Tang San and Xiao Wu stayed in one of the ordinary rooms.

The two of them seemed to be waiting for something, their expressions both revealing nervousness, but Tang San, who always gave people a feeling of calmness, was the more nervous one.

"Third brother, you have to believe in yourself. With your forging skills, you can definitely pass the exam." Xiao Wu said while holding Tang San's hand.

"Of course, in terms of forging skills, I'm not inferior to anyone else." Tang San replied with a smile on his face, but the tension in his heart increased instead of diminishing.

To say how this half-human, half-grass and one-rabbit got here, it goes back a long way.

After Mo Lin spoofed Tang San's hidden weapon order from a distance, the Tang Sect established by Tang San went bankrupt not long after.

As a family dragged down by this "Tang Sect", the Lizhi clan not only failed to get the income promised by Tang San these years, but also wasted their capital accumulated over ten years.

Even if the income-expense ratio after the disbandment was balanced, he really didn't want to have anything to do with Tang San and Shrek's people.

As the patriarch of the Power Clan, Tai Tan had to think about the family, and he couldn't and didn't want to follow Tang San because of his loyalty to Tang Hao, and persuaded Tang San to take Shrek's people to another place.

At this time, he Tai Tan didn't ask Tang San for the losses and expenses of these years, it could be said that he had done his best.

Tang San, as a mentally half-hundred-year-old man, of course, still needs to be respected.

Over the years, nothing has been accomplished, and all rely on the foundation of the family, and he also used the money of the family to support Shrek's teachers and two classmates (Oscar and Ma Hongjun).

Now that they were officially dispersed, Tang San hurriedly left Tian Dou City with Xiao Wu, thinking of looking for opportunities elsewhere and collecting information about his father.

As for Flender and Ma Hongjun, Tang San said it wasn't that he didn't want to care, he really didn't have the ability, anyway, they were led by the spirit masters of the Spirit Hall, and starving would definitely not kill them.

If you want to live a better life, then work hard, Tang San really doesn't want to live with a few burdens.

He didn't say hello that day, and left Tiandou City overnight with Xiao Wu in his arms, for fear that he would be entangled in the official farewell.

Since the Heaven Dou Empire had already split into two halves, and Tang San was also an ancient person before he crossed over, he thought that since he was so unlucky in the area controlled by Xue Qinghe, what could he do, if he went to the other side and said Not allowed to transfer.

So, Tang San hummed and took Xiao Wu to the area controlled by Xue Xing, and in order to prevent the oil bottles from being found again, he used the fake name "Tang Yin" that he used in the Killing Capital. "To communicate with people.

Because he had received training in noble etiquette at Yuexuan, Tang San often went to places where dignitaries would go, to see if he could find a discerning businessman to invest in his hidden weapons.

However, before Tang San found a discerning investor, or took advantage of him, he realized that his money was not enough.

It is an extremely exaggerated expense to visit the high-end consumption places that the dignitaries only go to on a daily basis.

Even though Tang San's food and clothing all these years depended on his family, he basically didn't spend any money, so he still had this considerable amount of savings, plus Xiao Wu's, there was a lot of money, even if If they live in seclusion, it will be enough to support them for the rest of their lives.

But this amount of savings in Tang San's eyes is not a small amount in the eyes of a real rich man. It's enough for a person to run to a place like a five-star hotel every day!

Besides, this wasn't the only financial difficulty Tang San encountered.

Another difficulty was that the monthly subsidy Tang San could get from the Spirit Hall branch hall was only a little more than one-tenth of what he used to be.

As we all know, Xue Xing hated Spirit Hall very much, but he didn't have enough power in the past, so he never dared to express it.

But he has become half the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, and his power is much greater than before, so he started to cut down some unnecessary expenses in his eyes.

The bulk of it is the subsidy distributed to all spirit masters.

The weekly subsidy for spirit masters is an agreement reached with various countries through the Spirit Hall.

Regardless of whether a spirit master is from the Spirit Hall, whether he serves a certain country, or whether he joins that spirit master force, he can receive the same monthly subsidy as other spirit masters of the same great realm.

After all, not all soul masters want to be involved in the political vortex between the royal family and the country, which also makes the soul master escape from the ordinary to a certain extent and can choose his life more freely.

This policy can be said to be entirely for the sake of spirit masters, cutting the flesh of those countries and giving them to spirit masters who do not necessarily belong to their country.

It was precisely because of this that the first thing Xue Xing did was to cut down on this part of the expenditure and reduce the supplementary funds that were distributed to all Spirit Masters by the Spirit Hall branch on his own site.

To Xue Xing's surprise, ~lightnovelpub.net~ Wuhun Hall agreed to eliminate half of it without any consideration.

Of course, it wasn't that Bibi Dong or Qian Daoliu were easy to talk about, but this fact actually weakened the number of soul masters who would stay on Xue Xing's land for a long time.

As mentioned above, not every soul master wants to get involved in the political vortex.

Xue Xing's approach is indeed to reduce a lot of expenses, and he can use this money for his own people.

But for those spirit masters who don't plan to join the state or haven't decided on their future direction, the money they get in this place is so much less than before, so why do they stay here? Wouldn't it be nice to go elsewhere?

But for Xue Xing, who is now determined to unify the country, it is difficult for him to take this into account, and he has dropped it many times.

When Tang San came to the area under Xue Xing's rule, the subsidy that each Spirit Master could receive from the Spirit Hall branch in this area was already less than one-eighth of what it used to be.

When Tang San ran out of money, it was only a tenth of the original.
