Chapter 406: This small piece of thin paper has such power (7.4k in total, please subscribe)

Longzhou, Longcheng, Baili Printing Factory

Baili Zhi yawned, rubbed his eyes and said:
"My Lord, all 20,000 newspapers are here."

"If we print in shifts, we can produce another 20,000 copies by noon."

"Zen Master Jiechen said that they will speed up the assembly of printing presses and double the production capacity in the next month."

"We can now run the machine for a day, with sufficient materials and skilled staff, and print about 80,000 copies a day."

Seeing that Baili Zhi didn't look like she was still asleep, Chu Wujiang stepped forward and hugged her, saying softly:

"Zhiruo, you've worked hard."

"Try to assign these tasks to your subordinates instead of doing them yourself."

"Not in a hurry."

Baili Zhi rolled her eyes:
"My Lord said we would come to pick it up at 9:7, but he arrived at :."

“Isn’t this urgent?”

Ever since Baili Zhi followed Chu Wujiang, she has gradually become bolder.

Chu Wujiang chuckled and said:

"I miss Zhiruo so much that I come to visit her."

Baili Zhi shook his head and said:

"My Lord, let's be serious."

"This newspaper sells for 3 cents a copy. After deducting 1 cent for cost and marketing expenses, the gross profit for each copy is 2 cents."

"Based on the current daily output of 8 newspapers, the annual net profit is about 5 taels."

"If we expand to all provinces in the country and the daily circulation is 800 million copies, we will hopefully reach 500 million taels."

Of course, this figure is inaccurate as it does not take into account employee salaries, depreciation, the cost of communications in various locations, and market capacity.

A newspaper costs three cents, which is equivalent to three dollars in the past life. In fact, the price is quite expensive.

The cost of paper and ink accounts for a negligible portion of the cost of a newspaper.

As long as the circulation increases significantly, Baili Newspaper Industry will become a world-famous wealthy businessman.

Baili Zhi felt a little suffocated as she calculated the money.

The population of the Tianming Dynasty is over 1 billion. Even if the literacy rate is 1%, there are more than 5 million literate people. The literacy rate of the people in Longzhou is about %.

Local gentry, landlords, clans, and aristocratic families are all keen on education to a certain extent. They will set up some welfare-oriented private schools to select talents.

Of course, a large portion of these people’s literacy rates are only at the elementary school level. They can only write their own names and understand the signs on the market, which is equivalent to the first grade level of Chu Wujiang in his previous life.

The potential population of people who can read and understand newspapers is about 200 million.

Therefore, 800 million newspapers is not an exaggerated number, it is just because the population is too large.

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
“It’s just small change.”

"We have to be careful, because someone will come and take over the market, and new newspapers will be born."

When Baili Zhi heard that someone was coming to steal her business, she quickly said:

"Don't worry, my Lord. I have already discussed it with Zen Master Jiechen."

"In the next twenty years, the printing presses will only be sold to Baili Newspaper Industry, and we will also purchase all the printing presses."

"At the same time, all factory workers will sign contracts to be servants. Anyone who dares to leak secrets will be beaten to death."

"Most of the servants and workers we are recruiting now are from vassal families that have received favors from the Baili family."

"The probability of them leaking information is very low."

"Those Baili family warriors who were redeemed by the Death Camp can also smash them."

Although Baili Zhi looks weak, she is born into a noble family after all. She has been influenced by her family since she was a child and is an aristocrat at heart.

Now Baili Press is the hope of the Baili family, and Baili Zhi will not hesitate to use the most drastic measures to prevent others from stealing.

Similarly, the Baili family prioritizes recruiting people from vassal families.

Chu Wujiang couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Can they still be loyal to the Baili family?"

Baili Zhi quickly replied:
"Don't worry, my Lord. I can trust you completely."

"Many of them have been servants of the Baili family for more than three generations. No one wants them even if they are put on the market. They have a hard life these days."

"Without the blessing of the family, it will be difficult for the children and grandchildren to have a future, study and find employment."

"I just spread the word, and they came straight to me, swore allegiance, and even took out their family property to fight to the death."

Chu Wujiang suddenly realized.

Every noble has a large number of vassal families under him. They are bound to that family, and once the family is defeated, they will lose their livelihood.

For example, the Baili family once had a weapons workshop, but now it has been divided up by various forces, and the blacksmith naturally continues to work.

However, the shopkeeper, deacon, and person in charge of the weapon shop were replaced. For example, the Sitianjian, the Lu family, and the Chu family all replaced them with their own trusted confidants.

These management positions do not require high technical skills, are lucrative, and have always been used by their own people.

One emperor and one courtier.

The lucrative profits they had originally obtained from relying on the Baili family were gone.

Within a generation, no noble family would be willing to take them in due to loyalty issues.

In other words, only after one or two generations, when they have completely fallen into the status of commoners, will they have the opportunity to regain their loyalty to the noble families, sects, etc.

How is this acceptable?

The story of many noble retainers in history who were loyal to their family heirs and eventually revived their families is that if they lost their families, they would lose all their interests.

Loyalty comes from personal interests.

So Baili Zhi raised her arms and called for action. Although the Baili family fell into decline and countless diehards were executed, the remnants quickly gathered around her, respected her as the head of the family, and swore allegiance to her.

Especially since Baili Zhi could bring them a good income and guarantee for the next generation, the remnants of the party shouted:

"We swear to be loyal to the master until death."

"We will smash the head of anyone who dares to oppose the young lady."

"As long as we are here, the secrets of the printing house will never be revealed."

This is how the iron ties of aristocratic families and nobles were gradually built up.

A valuable noble orphan is such a charismatic person.

Chu Wujiang pinched Baili Zhi's face and said:
“It’s not enough.”

“You can’t just run it as a family business.”

"There are a hundred states in the world, and I want to publish all the newspapers. And I don't just want to publish one kind of newspaper."

"There should be ten or even a hundred kinds of newspapers!"

Baili Zhi had long known that Chu Wujiang was very ambitious, but she didn't expect that he would publish so many newspapers.

Baili Zhi said in surprise:

"My Lord, can this be sold?"

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
"From life to business, from current politics to social hot spots."

"Confucianism, witchcraft, Taoism, etc., all related newspapers must be published."

"Just one champion newspaper is not enough."

“We want to include all aspects.”

"Do you still think the Baili family has enough talents now?"

Baili Zhi did some mental calculations again and felt it was incredible.

In this case, the Baili family simply does not have enough talent, and cannot control such a large business.

A family business can be rich in a certain area, but it cannot conquer the world.

Because your talent pool is limited and cannot compare to the elites selected from across the country.

Baili Zhi said hesitantly:

"But now is just the beginning, we can expand step by step."

Is it necessary to dilute the wealth that you are bound to gain?

Chu Wujiang chuckled and said:

"Zhiruo, do you think this newspaper will be very technical?"

Baili Zhi shook his head and said:

"If printing presses become more widespread, with a few hundred taels of silver, you can publish a newspaper."

The spread of newspapers can be said to be the fastest among all technologies.

Chu Wujiang nodded and said:

"now it's right."

"Even if Zen Master Jiechen controls the flow of the machine, other forces are by no means fools."

"In two to three months at the least, or half a year at the most, they will definitely realize the benefits of newspapers."

“Then they will try to launch their own newspaper.”

"If I don't have a printing press, can I use woodblock printing to make copies?"

"can!"

The convenience of warriors allows all forces to break through technological barriers in a short period of time.

For example, a warrior in the Yuantai realm specializes in carving templates and printing news by woodblock printing. This was impossible in Chu Wujiang's previous life, but it is not a problem for a warrior.

Baili Zhi was not stupid, she reacted quickly:

"I will purchase a rideable golden eagle and rush to various parts of the country as soon as possible to establish cooperation with local governments and publish more varieties of newspapers!"

Chu Wujiang smiled with satisfaction:
"Correct!"

"The Baili family can take over the profits of Champion Newspaper, but they can't be too greedy and want to take over the entire newspaper industry. Otherwise, they will fall into the obstacle of knowledge and view."

"We want to expand across the country as quickly as possible. We don't have time for a slow family-run business."

“We can cooperate and invest in a snowballing way to seize the first opportunity as much as possible.”

"The Chu family will unite elites from all over the country to make this piece of juicy newspaper business together."

The business model of the Tianming Dynasty is still very backward. There is a certain amount of joint-stock cooperation, but most of them are run by fellow villagers, classmates, and families.

For example, the Chu family’s Changxin Chamber of Commerce, the Fayuan Temple’s Youyuan Chamber of Commerce, etc., these are chambers of commerce built on the basis of local forces, adopting a family or sect-style development, and everyone is one of them.

What Chu Wujiang required was to sweep across the country as quickly as possible and make a breakthrough in the strategic structure, which could be achieved through a variety of measures such as franchising.

Although Chu Wujiang was not a business genius in his previous life, if he had this ability he would have made a lot of money long ago, but he lived in a highly capital-developed society in his previous life and naturally understood the various advantages and disadvantages.

From a business model perspective, crush the enemies and build a huge moat.

Baili Zhi received the promise of benefits from the Baili family, and nodded quickly:

"Slave, let's do it now."

"and many more!"

Just as Baili Zhi was about to re-plan her plan, Chu Wujiang quickly stopped her.

"My Lord, do you have any other instructions?"

Chu Wujiang pondered and said:

"Except for the Champion Newspaper, other newspapers should not have obvious connections with the Changxin Chamber of Commerce or even the Chu family."

Baili Zhi said quickly:
"My Lord, are you worried about the court's suspicion?"

Chu Wujiang nodded and said:

"Of course."

"If this newspaper is sold successfully, the court will find out that this newspaper can ruin the Sima family's reputation in an instant, which will have a very bad impact."

"From the common people to the high-ranking officials, everyone influenced by this report will think that the Sima family are all bad guys."

"Will the court allow it?"

Certainly not.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is no fool.

Even if he was stupid, other people weren't stupid.

If Chu Wujiang was not a local lord, even if the newspaper made a lot of money, he would have to wait for a while before entering the venue to handle the matter.

Chu Wujiang added:

"So we need to spread out and let the powerful people from all over the place participate a little."

"We just need to control it from behind the scenes, that's the principle."

"We must control the media and not let the court notice this."

Baili Zhi admired sincerely:
"My Lord, how far can you see?"

This newspaper isn't on the market yet; it's just been printed and the ink is still fresh.

Chu Wujiang has already considered the national strategy and the court's response.

Baili Zhi couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.

"I feel so useless."

She worked hard to run a printing factory, but when Chu Wujiang took some time out of his busy schedule to make plans, he thought of countless things that she had not considered.

It's really discouraging.

Chu Wujiang lit up two literary stars, and his thinking speed increased further. The moment he saw the newspaper, he thought of countless things and put them into practice one by one.

The Confucian school has a kind of fortune called [Knowing Ten Things After Hearing One]. Chu Wujiang cannot do this for the time being, but he can still know three things after hearing one thing.

Baili Zhi has not yet broken through to this level.

Chu Wujiang chuckled and said:

"Zhiruo has done a great job."

"There's no need to compete with me. Just keep learning and accumulating."

There is not only talent in this world. As long as you are willing to learn and continue to study, you can also reach a very high level.

Tian Gang Zhenren and Zhao Shenbu are both examples. They have achieved their primordial spirits and surpassed 90% of the geniuses.

Baili Zhi nodded vigorously and said:
"Slave will work hard."

"and many more!"

Chu Wujiang called Baili Zhi again, which made Baili Zhi wonder:

"Does the Marquis have any other instructions?"

Chu Wujiang smiled evilly and whispered in Baili Zhi's ear:

"Zhiruo looks exhausted. I will help you to recover."

Baili Zhi's cheeks turned completely red, and she asked shyly and annoyedly:
"My Lord, you are not here to get a newspaper."

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:

"Since we are here, how can we come here for nothing?"

"Master Hou~"

Baili Zhi shouted, but her body betrayed her.

After the two of them had their fun, Baili Zhi became full of energy and had a rosy complexion, without any signs of working overtime.

Chu Wujiang was satisfied and took the newspaper and returned to Tianjing.

On the other side, Shang Lulu and Huo Wenxuan had already organized people and sold newspapers in various forms as required.

The newsboys received a good salary and the scholars got the breaking news.

Both sides win.

Twenty thousand newspapers may not seem like a lot, but they appeared in the streets and alleys of Tianjing, and spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Now the only news in Tianjing was about Sima.

Newspapers appeared for the first time and brought the first big news.

The impact and influence it created were even more severe than Chu Wujiang had expected.

The intelligence agencies of various forces left in Tianjing passed the news on through the intelligence network they built.

……

Silk State, Han Palace
In the second hour when Chu Wujiang was selling newspapers, the King of Han had already received the original newspaper. He glanced at it carefully and said in a deep voice:
"The Sima family is so incompetent and they are colluding with demons. Their reputation is ruined."

"The Han Palace is ashamed to be associated with you, Steward Xue."

Xue, the steward of the Han Palace, seemed to have emerged from the earth. He saluted and said:

"The old slave is here!"

"Go and inform the Sima family. The marriage between the two families is over."

"The Han Palace has no connection with the Sima family anymore."

Butler Xue was surprised:
"Your Majesty, Sima Ying has a vision for the future and is a genius. Would you consider him?"

The King of Han shook his head and said:
"No need. If this newspaper spreads throughout the capital, it will spread throughout the world."

"There are few clean families colluding with demons, but he is the first one to make it known to the world."

"Why would I need him? Will he bring disaster to the reputation of the Han Palace?"

"From now on, the Sima family is not allowed to set foot in Sizhou."

Butler Xue responded repeatedly:

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The King of Han could tolerate bad deeds but could not tolerate stupidity. He began to foresee the future of the Sima family.

……

Fengzhou, Prince Jin's Palace
"Father!"

"My daughter wants to go to Tianjing to meet Sima Jie."

King Jin closed his eyes and shook his head gently:
"There's no need for that."

"Mu Chen sent a message from Tianjing. He said that the Sima family is completely finished."

"Even though there are powerful Yuanshen masters in charge, it will be difficult to turn the situation around within a hundred years, and the world will lose hope."

"Father will order the butler to cancel the engagement."

"The world is big, there are plenty of talented people on the Tianjiao list!"

Princess Ziling, the daughter of Prince Jin, retorted:

"Father, although I have never met Sima Ying and do not know his character, the marriage between the Prince of Jin and the Sima family has been arranged. How can we give up halfway?"

“Wouldn’t the Prince of Jin’s Mansion become a snob?”

"In life, one must keep one's word and fulfill one's actions."

King Jin said in a deep voice:
"There is another sentence behind this, 'What a mean person you are.'"

"A great man does not necessarily keep his word, nor does he necessarily fulfill his actions, but only follows what is right."

"The Sima family colluded with demons and committed a heinous crime. As a father, it is only natural for me to order someone to cancel the engagement."

"Look at this newspaper."

Princess Zi Ling picked up the newspaper, glanced at it, and her face changed slightly, but she did not listen to the advice and continued:

"Father, what you hear is not as good as what you see."

"This newspaper..."

King Jin added:
“It’s called a newspaper.”

Princess Zi Ling said quickly:

"This newspaper is just a random fabrication. Anyone can write it. How can we take it as true?"

King Jin shook his head and said:
"The content in this newspaper is true. Originally, only a few people knew about it. The court probably wanted to keep a low profile. How can they keep a low profile now?"

Princess Zi Ling gritted her teeth and said:
"The daughter is willing to go to Tianjing to inquire about his whereabouts and confirm the truth."

"Otherwise, if the Prince Jin's Mansion cancels the engagement like this, it will damage the reputation of the Palace."

King Jin felt a dull pain in his head, and finally said helplessly:

"Father can promise you."

"It just so happens that the Young Heroes Conference is about to begin. Heroes from all over the world will gather in Tianjing. It would be a good idea for you to go and see the world."

"But you have to listen to Mr. Huang along the way."

Princess Zi Ling was delighted and said quickly:

"Thank you, father!"

……

Tianjing, Tianlao, Dizi No. 1 Room
Sima Xuan is still fantasizing about holding a Young Heroes Conference, where Sima family members can show their unique styles and thus protect the Sima family's network of relationships.

But all this was destroyed by this thin newspaper.

Show no mercy.

It’s not because the two families are well-educated, but because they know that after the newspaper is circulated, a unified consensus will gradually be formed from the grassroots to the upper class.

The Sima family colluded with demons and are big villains.

Some things are worth less than four ounces if they are not weighed, and they cannot be weighed even a thousand pounds if they are weighed.

Sima Ying saw the newspaper in prison, his hands trembling, and he shouted hysterically:

"Who wrote this!"

"It is slandering the Sima family, it is slandering the Sima family!"

"No, we have to destroy all these things, immediately!"

Sima Ying deserves the reputation of being a peerless genius.

After reading the newspaper, he quickly realized the terrible power of newspapers, which is to shape public opinion and control the court.

Sima Ying didn't care that his own vitality was blocked, and activated the End of the Earth Talisman hidden in his body to tell his second brother.

Chu Wujiang could only pretend to be sad and said:
"It's too late, brother."

“The newspapers have spread.”

Sima Ying's face turned pale. He could no longer imagine how severely His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would punish him once public opinion in Tianjing became overwhelming.

Public opinion is still spreading.

……

Tianjing, Imperial College
All the scholars in the Imperial College were discussing the Champion Newspaper and expressing their opinions.

"So the Sima family of Shengzhou is so filthy. We are ashamed to be associated with them!"

"Yes, the Sima family originally wanted to recruit me as their guest official, but now I have no choice but to refuse."

"What do you think His Royal Highness will do?"

"I heard that one of the Crown Prince's concubines is from the Sima family. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected."

"Shh, keep your voice down."

These students of the Imperial Academy may not have received money from His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, but they were better informed and more concerned about national affairs.

This time, the reputation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also damaged.

One of the scholars almost ran up to his friend, holding a newspaper, and shouted excitedly:

"Yongfu, have you heard?"

"Hurry, read this newspaper."

Tao Yongfu smiled, picked up the newspaper in his hand, shook it and said:
"Cui Ming, I bought it too."

"The Sima family is so stupid!"

"They actually tried to control Fang Fusheng, they don't know whether they live or die."

Cui Ming looked around carefully and whispered:
"Before, because of the senior brother's face, no one could say anything."

"This time you finally got your revenge."

"Fang Fusheng will suffer the same fate."

Tao Yongfu was a descendant of Mr. Tao, the richest man in the empire. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and could spend money like firewood. However, Fang Fusheng broke both of his legs in a brothel.

That's fine.

Fights between dignitaries are not uncommon.

Unexpectedly, the Minister of Revenue, his father forced him to apologize to Fang Fusheng.

Tao Yongfu still grits his teeth when he thinks about it now:
"Are you saying that the Sima family colluded with the fox demon to murder Fang Fusheng?"

"There are still many good fox demons in this world."

"Why didn't you kill him?"

"In the end, Fang Fusheng became the victim?"

Tao Yongfu was in a good mood these two days. Chu Wujiang first slapped Fang Fusheng twice, and then made Fang Fusheng's marriage fail. His fiancée sent a fox demon to control him secretly.

Everything is so perfect.

The only thing I am not satisfied with is that Fang Fusheng actually has some signs of being whitewashed.

Cui Ming quickly covered Tao Yongfu's mouth and whispered:

"Hush, be silent!"

"Haven't you heard the full version told by the storyteller at Wenxiang Teahouse?"

"It's reported in the news that the Sima family committed heinous crimes and colluded with demons to murder Fang Fusheng."

"But it was all because the Fang family forced the Sima family to marry their daughter off, and Fang Fusheng was tempted by her beauty, which led to this evil consequence."

Tao Yongfu's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Is there a full version?"

"Let's go, let's go and listen!"

Public opinion is spreading and people are also making up various stories.

……

Tianjing, Wenxiang Teahouse

The storyteller clapped his hands vigorously and said loudly:

"Dear readers, today I will not talk about anything else, but just tell you a strange story."

"It is said that in the past, there was a family named Si in Shengzhou. There was a daughter in the family named Si Jing, who was both talented and beautiful, and extremely intelligent."

"But because of the pressure from Grand Tutor Pang, she was forced to marry Pang Fugui, the most dissolute playboy in Longdu."

The audience sitting down were all old acquaintances, so how could they not know the coded text? They shouted repeatedly:

"I think there is something wrong with what you said, sir."

"His surname is obviously Sima, and he is not a Grand Tutor, but a Prime Minister."

Bang!
Seeing that the listener was trying to disrupt his performance, the storyteller immediately struck the wake-up stick and said solemnly:

"Xiao Ke is talking about things from the previous dynasty, don't make any associations."

"Si Jing was unwilling to accept her fate. She could not disobey Master Pang, so she had no choice but to take a risk and seek help from the Qingqiu fox demon to break off the marriage."

"There is a kindhearted fox demon in Qingqiu. She saw that Pang Fugui forced women and was a vulgar person. He often stayed in brothels and was infected with syphilis. He was a real devil."

Upon hearing this, Tao Yongfu immediately threw out a 10-liang silver ingot and shouted:
"Well said, this young master will reward you!"

"Tell me more about how shameless Pang Fugui is!"

The storyteller was delighted and said quickly:

"Then why is Pang Fugui the devil? He relies on the power of Master Pang to rob men and women on the street."

"He not only likes women, but also likes men and women, and likes to abuse little boys. He is really shameless."

……

With the help of Tao Yongfu, the storyteller told a story of Pang Fugui's heroic deeds, some true and some false, which made everyone gnash their teeth and curse:
"That Pang Fugui really deserves to die!"

The storyteller quickly picked up the topic:
"The fox demon thinks so too."

"She promised to help Miss Si Jing seek justice and scare Pang Fugui into absolving her of the marriage."

"Who would have thought that the Si family would learn of the fox demon's kindness and secretly drug it, controlling it to work for them."

"It turns out that the Si family not only coveted the power of the Grand Tutor's Mansion and forced their daughter to marry a playboy, but also colluded with demons long ago and wanted to use their daughter to infiltrate the human race."

"Pang Fugui is a piece of shit, and the Si family is even filthy."

"Miss Si Jing was forced to take a risk and seek help from Marquis Guanjun."

"At this time, the former dynasty's champion marquis was returning victorious from the frontier and met Pang Fugui by chance."

"A shocking case is revealed!"

……

The storyteller spoke eloquently, and the people under the Qin Wang party immediately had an idea after the newspaper appeared.

They need to meet three conditions.

First, the Sima family is bad and colludes with demons.

Second, the Prime Minister’s Mansion can also be corrupt, forcibly marrying women from the common people.

Third, Guan Junhou is good and reveals the truth.

So the storyteller began to manipulate the story and made a great creation. The whole story, combined with the truth reported by the Champion Newspaper, suddenly became very credible.

Originally, the children of the rich and powerful in Tianjing used it as a place to listen to operas.
Especially people like Tao Yongfu, who were taught a lesson by Fang Fusheng, have become tap water and want to make this story become the truth.

As the saying goes, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it. The Cui family, the Lu family, the Li family and other aristocratic families began to add fuel to the fire.

……

Imperial Palace, Hall of Supreme Harmony
The atmosphere of today's morning court seemed a little strange, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked a little gloomy, because he had also read the newspaper, but felt helpless.

A thin piece of newspaper put him in a dilemma.

Should the punishment be lighter or heavier?

The lighter approach is to absorb more of the Sima family.

The more important thing is to win wide acclaim from the people.

Civil and military officials lined up on both sides, and both sides held their breath, waiting for the battle to begin.

Originally, it was planned to summon the Champion Marquis today and confer the title of Duke of Guanjun tomorrow, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked an unusual question:

"Are you going to make a speech today?"

Wang Yuan, the Chief Censor of the Qin Wang Party, stood up and said loudly:

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, I respectfully report that the Sima family of Shengzhou has always prided themselves on being loyal and good, but recently they have colluded with demons to murder the son of the Prime Minister, framed important officials of the court, and alienated the emperor from his ministers."

"Now Sima's crimes are known to the world. They are heinous and the people are extremely angry."

"We should punish them severely and serve as a warning to others."

"I beg Your Highness to banish Sima to the northern border to make amends for his crimes!"

Boom!

The court suddenly became buzzing, and everyone was discussing the matter using the secret art of voice transmission.

If Chu Wujiang and others had agreed upon a fine at the beginning, now the Qin Wang party plans to add fuel to the fire and send all the people to the border to fight against the evil god's court!

No matter whether you are one of the Eight Simas or the two peerless geniuses, you will all be exiled to the frontier.

Either make contributions to the country or die.
