Time flies, white horses pass by.

In the blink of an eye, five days passed. In these five days, the people from the Ministry of Works were already immune, including Fu Kun. The good news from the Spirit Research Department increased day by day. From three to eight, then sixteen, thirty-two, forty, forty-nine, fifty-two, there were a total of 197.

Some people were happy, while others were sad. They couldn’t eat well or sleep well.

With so many contributions, even though the reward had not yet been given, Zhang Ronghua’s qualifications were already full. He was flawless and too beautiful. It was enough for him to be promoted. His political opponents could not find any fault with him. Even if the censor was unhappy, he had to keep it in his heart. The shortcomings of his youth were also made up for with his powerful abilities.

How long had it been? If he were to continue working at the Spirit Research Department, no! If the Ministry of Works continued, wouldn’t they have to jump a few times? Or even ascend to the heavens in a single step?

He was afraid! He felt fear from the bottom of his heart!

In recent days, there had been suggestions in the royal court that many departments needed him to be transferred over so that he could display greater abilities and make new contributions.

For others, advancing from Rank-4 to Rank-3 was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. They had to spend a lot of effort, experience, and help from nobles before they could make the leap.

Even Li Daoran, who had been promoted a few days ago and entered Rank-3, was promoted to a high official because he had sufficient qualifications. He had worked in the Scholar Hall for so many years and made an exception to be promoted with the help of the ancient medical inheritance. Otherwise, even if he offered treasures, he would still be stuck if he did not have enough qualifications.

To sum it up, there was only one word-endure!

But what about him? He didn’t need any activities, nor did he have any intention of being promoted. He only wanted to research the remaining materials, weapons, and feys to increase their power by one-third. That was all, but he didn’t allow it.

One by one, they were all blocked by Fu Kun, Xu Shidao, and the military bigwigs.

What a joke. The more things Zhang Ronghua researched, the more powerful they would be. As the Minister of Works, Fu Kun would be able to gain more experience as well. With only 197 pieces, he would be able to compete for the position of Grand Secretary. There was nothing he could do about Grand Secretary Cui’s position. It was already the final battle. Pei Caicai and He Wenxuan had fought for real, and even if they interfered, they would still fail. However, they could still target the other positions of the other Grand Sect. Before this, their political enemies could still make an issue out of their lack of experience. Now, they were just staring blankly! The last shortcoming was also made up.

He had received accurate news a few days ago that a cabinet elder would retire not long after. Fu Kun began to make preparations to fight for the cabinet elder election and guard against all kinds of accidents.

At this time, the more experience one had, the greater the benefits. It could also increase the success rate.

The reason why Xu Shidao and the military elders rejected them was simple. Firstly, they wanted Zhang Ronghua to research more things to improve the combat effectiveness of the army. Secondly, the more experienced he was, the higher his position would be, and the more authority he would have.

To be honest, jumping to the second level was very difficult. Even if he could jump, it would be detrimental to his growth. His foundation was not stable. It would be fine if nothing happened, but once something happened, he could not withstand a little trouble. Only by fighting steadily could he stand firm in the imperial court.

The military had obtained so many benefits for no reason. When they reached the battlefield, they would be able to make even more contributions. To be honest, all the soldiers of Great Xia owed him. If possible, they would naturally make up for it.

As these things were mass-produced and prepared for the army, they were distributed to every soldier. After being baptized on the battlefield, killing enemies and making contributions, most of them were safe. After fermenting, they would be grateful and respect from the bottom of their hearts.

The soldiers at the lower levels were very pure. They killed enemies, made contributions, kept their lives, honored their hometown, and protected their families. That was all. They were willing to give up their lives for these things.

Although he didn’t gain any benefits on the surface, he had a huge influence in the dark. Zhang Ronghua was deeply rooted in the hearts of the Great Xia soldiers and had a great prestige. Just based on this point, he could do many things.

For example, the biography of the Celestial Emperor had spread far and wide.

Emperor Xia was remembered by the people and was deeply grateful to them. As the author of the biography, the title of ” Great Scholar ” was also known by thousands of scholars and held great prestige in the apricot forest.

The prices of the ” indecent ” paintings that he had previously made had been rising again and again. Now, the prices had already risen by twenty times. Even so, the prices were still rising. Although the prices were sky-high, there were many rich people fighting to buy them. Without any connections, they had become masterpieces. Of course, it was due to the influence of status, but more importantly, it was due to fame!

When a man attains the Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

After Zhang Ronghua ate the meat, the people below also drank the soup. They were all full of qualifications. Qin Shouyi had already been promoted and took over Li Feng’s position. He became the chief clerk of the procurement hall and entered Rank-4, possessing the qualifications to go to court.

When the rewards from the higher-ups came down, the others would also follow suit and improve. Each and every one of them would be more energetic and full of enthusiasm.

Other than these.

The research of Heaven Rank feys had also reached a critical moment. He was only a little bit away from being able to research them.

Huo Jingxiu was in charge of logistics, so she did everything she promised. No matter what the Spirit Research Department wanted, she would find a way to get it. She took advantage of this opportunity to secretly refine hundreds of Black Demon Beads and dozens of Heavenly Thunder Talismans, and handed them all to Zheng Yi to protect the development of Light.

In the office hall.

The atmosphere was oppressive, heavy, strange, and quiet. One could even hear the faint sound of the wind coming from outside.

Yan Lihua sat on the main seat with a straight face. There was a cup of steaming hot tea in front of him. It was spiritual tea that emitted a strong fragrance, but he had no appetite at all. He didn’t even have the desire to reach out his hand.

Sitting across from him was Styron, who had just come over. He was also expressionless and his eyebrows were knitted together..
