Upon attaining the Innate realm, the remuneration for each subsequent level would increase by 100 Myriad Lotus Coins.
When one reached Transcendent from Innate Level 9, they would receive 1,000 Myriad Lotus Coins.
Mei Changge nodded in agreement with Guo Jia’s detailed explanation.
Soldiers were combat units. Dividing their salary by strength was indeed a good solution.
“However, Feng Xiao, we have generals and even deputy generals within the ranks of our soldiers. We need to address this as well, don’t we?”
Mei Changge frowned slightly and asked Guo Jia.
“My lord, can one suppress the other soldiers if one doesn’t have the strength?” Guo Jia said to Mei Changge with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Mei Changge’s face was filled with realization. He did not expect to have fallen into a misunderstanding.
Guo Jia was right. Without a certain level of strength, it was indeed impossible to suppress others.
“In that case, let’s go according to your plan.”
Mei Changge smiled and agreed to Guo Jia’s proposal of military salary.
The salary of the army was based on strength. Presumably, this would make every soldier interested in increasing their strength.
“Yes, my lord!”
Guo Jia nodded and said with a smile.
“About the various departments, I’ve thought about it and feel that at least five departments are needed.”
Mei Changge thought for a moment and said to Guo Jia.
“The Creation Camp, Ministry of Revenue, Battle Command, Administrative Office, and the additional Trade Bureau.”
In the end, Mei Changge decided to add another department to Guo Jia’s suggestion, which was the Trade Bureau.
Their primary responsibility would revolve around addressing the business-related issues of the Void Market and all the subsequent cities. “Trade Bureau? Do we use it to manage the Void Market?”
When Guo Jia heard Mei Changge’s words, he thought for a moment and also thought of the problem with the Void Market.
An independent department was indeed needed to be in charge of the Void Market.
“Exactly. Apart from the Void Market, there will also be business-related issues concerning the upcoming cities”
Mei Changge explained that once the Trade Bureau was established, its purview wouldn’t be limited solely to the Void Market. Even though the Void Market interacted with the outside world, it still required such a department for internal management. “My lord, no problem.”
Guo Jia nodded in agreement.
“Yes, but regarding the organization of the various departments, I will need you to handle it, Feng Xiao. I’ll have to trouble you again.”
Mei Changge expressed a sense of resignation upon hearing Guo Jia’s concurrence. Clearly, there was a shortage of talent, as evidenced by the challenges they were facing in establishing various departments.
Of course, the main reason was that Mei Changge had always let Guo Jia handle this job. He was not familiar with this aspect himself.
Regarding this, Mei Changge was even more determined to enter the level -two stargates.
Currently, aside from Guo Jia, there were no other outstanding talents who could assume such responsibilities. Otherwise, given Guo Jia’s disposition, he would have recommended them long ago.
After all, Guo Jia was still the same Guo Jia who liked drinking.
“Don’t worry, my lord. The various departments have only just been established, and there aren’t many things to do. However, I suggest letting Elder Xu be in charge of the Ministry of Revenue for the time being.”
Guo Jia nodded at Mei Changge and said.
“Xu Changqing?”
When Mei Changge heard Guo Jia’s words, he could not help but nod.
Xu Changqing had previous experience in population statistics, making it feasible for him to oversee the Ministry of Revenue for a period of time.
Yet, when Mei Changge contemplated Xu Changqing’s aged appearance, he couldn’t help but feel a bit perplexed. Otherwise, Guo Jia wouldn’t have suggested that Xu Changqing manage it temporarily.
“Alright, I’ll inform Elder Xu.”
Mei Changge nodded and accepted Guo Jia’s suggestion.
“My lord, in that case, I’ll start making preparations for the various departments.”
Guo Jia cupped his hands at Mei Changge.
“Very well, take them. Use them to distribute the military salaries and the rewards for Xu Chu and the others.”
“And yours included.”
Mei Changge threw out two spatial bags and said with a smile.
When Guo Jia heard Mei Changge’s last sentence, his eyes lit up. Then, he looked at the spatial bags.
He realized there were many wine bottles in them.
“White Jade Lotus Wine?”
Guo Jia looked at Mei Changge in surprise.
“That’s right, but don’t drink too much!”
Mei Changge smiled and nodded.
This White Jade Lotus Wine was brewed in Lotus Flower Blessed Land, so Guo Jia did not have the chance to drink Spirit Wine for a long time.
At that moment, Mei Changge could even feel the excitement in Guo Jia’s eyes.
“Thank you, my lord!”
Guo Jia said to Mei Changge and quickly left.
“Drink in moderation. And don’t drink Xu Chu’s and the others’ wine!”
Mei Changge could not help but say. Then, he shook his head slightly and disappeared from the Green Lotus Palace in a flash.
When he appeared again, he was in Lotus Flower Blessed Land.
Furthermore, he had sought out Xu Changqing directly. At that moment, Xu Changqing was still making arrangements for some individuals. These people were the humans he had saved from the Forest race.
“My lord.”
When Xu Changqing saw Mei Changge, he put down the things in his hand and cupped his hands at Mei Changge.
“Elder Xu, there’s no need to be so polite.”
A gentle force straightened Xu Changqing’s body.
“How many people are there this time?”
Mei Changge asked Xu Changqing.
Unknowingly, Xu Changqing had addressed Mei Changge as his lord.
“My lord, there are still thousands of people pending inclusion in the count, but the current population is approximately 35,000.”
“Apart from that, General Lin said that he brought back nearly 20,000 people.
He hasn’t calculated in detail.”
Xu Changqing pointed at a large number of people not far away.
“Oh, Zifeng is back too?”
Upon hearing Xu Changqing’s statement, Mei Changge displayed a hint of astonishment. It dawned on him that he had been engaged in combat with the Forest race during that period and had not realized that Lin Zifeng had returned to the Lotus Flower Blessed Land through the stargate.
“Looks like Zifeng’s harvest is not bad.”
Mei Changge gazed into the distance and happened to spot Lin Zifeng, who was guiding the Mystic Yang soldiers and a considerable crowd of people toward Xu Changqing.
“Elder Xu, as the territory is on the verge of becoming official, I’ve had a discussion with Feng Xiao and decided to appoint you as the head of the Ministry of Revenue for a duration. How do you feel about this?” Mei Changge looked at Xu Changqing and asked with a smile.
“No problem, my lord. But please replace me once you find a suitable candidate.”
When Xu Changqing heard Mei Changge’s words, he only thought for a moment.
“Sure, but I’m afraid you wouldn’t want to leave the Ministry of Revenue when the time comes.”
Mei Change smiled.
It was because Mei Changge had resolved to include White Jade Lotus Wine or other Spirit Wine as part of his compensation in the future.
When the time arrived, Xu Changqing might not even want to depart from his role at the Ministry of Revenue. However, Mei Changge understood the reasons behind Xu Changqing’s reluctance to remain in charge of the Ministry of Revenue.
Xu Changqing rarely participated in activities.
After all, among the soldiers, Xu Chu and Xu Ding were from the Xu Manor, and Xu Changqing was once an elder of the Xu Manor..
