[Although you were currently a mortal, your preparation for simulating this world was wholesome.

[You had memorized everything in your mind, be it the records of many modern scientific developments or various equipment-making methods.

[The Eldest Princess was a very smart woman. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to hold back for so long. Although she didn’t understand much of what you said, she was also impressed by your wisdom and listened to your suggestions. She promised to find many people to assist you and delayed the announcement of your becoming the husband-in-name.]

…

[On the 23rd day, the Eldest Princess was very efficient. This morning, she found elites from all walks of life for you. The Ming dynasty had already developed the most basic cannon, so a lot of time was saved when it came to making gunpowder. Otherwise, just mining the raw materials would take a lot of time.

[You divided the craftsmen into several groups, and each group was given a task to build the basic equipment.

[Although these craftsmen had never seen these pieces of equipment, you had already thought of this and started to prepare the most basic things, so it was very easy to get started.

[For example, steelmaking in the blast furnace, distilling wine, making perfume, burning glass, making soap, and so on, a series of necessary products for transmigrators.

[As for whether these things were useful? Of course, they were useful, whether it was wine, perfume, glass, or soap.

[In the current Ming dynasty, they could all be sold for a very high price.

[No matter what time it was, money was very important. Money could make the devil move the mill. In this world, it was also very reasonable.

[That night, you took the distilled wine, perfume, soap, and other products that you made and showed them off in front of the Eldest Princess. The Eldest Princess looked at them with stars in her eyes. She also expressed her firm agreement with your idea. At this point, you began to have a strong backing and build your ideal technological empire.]

…

[On the 53rd day, you used modern technology to quickly harvest a large amount of wealth, and the elites that you found—after a long period of specialized research—began to slowly learn physics and chemistry at the junior-high-school level.

[On this day, you used the Eldest Princess’ name to order people to bring a large number of natural treasures to various places of interest, Buddhist and Daoist temples, inviting the experts of Buddhism and Taoism to the capital.

[Although your series of actions had achieved good results, they had also attracted the attention of many people.

[Fortunately, you had the Eldest Princess as your backing. Up until now, no one had made a move against you.]

…

[On the 59th day, the people that were sent out returned one after another. Those Daoists and monks were still very easy to deal with. After all, with the orders of the Eldest Princess, as well as a large amount of gold, silver, and natural treasures, it was not difficult for them to come to the capital for a visit.

[However, the thing that you had been worried about all this time finally happened. One day, your subordinates came to report that all the workers in your large factories had gone missing for no reason.

[In just one day, dozens of people had gone missing.

[After you received the news, not only were you not nervous, but you were much more relaxed.

[From the very beginning, you had already predicted this. Therefore, the production line was divided into many processing procedures. Each worker was responsible for a different process.

[Therefore, merely capturing a few workers was not enough to cause a leak.

[You, on the other hand, immediately found the Eldest Princess. Following the clues left behind, you found the masterminds behind it.

[As the emperor of the Ming dynasty was bent on pursuing Buddhism, there were already many factions in the imperial court.

[The Eldest Princess’ faction was one of the largest. Now, with you joining, the Eldest Princess had become the richest leader, so her influence expanded rapidly.

[Soon, she found many people who were interested in your achievements.]

…

[On the 60th day, in just one day, those people who were interested in your factory were all wiped out. The entire capital was in a state of shock. The ministers who were interested in your achievements also discarded their petty thoughts. You began to improve modern technology step by step.]

…

[On the 65th day, all the Daoists and Buddhists summoned from all over the country gathered in the capital. You asked the Eldest Princess to set up a ‘Gathering of Talents Temple’ and temporarily let these people live there.

[In order to ensure that the plan could be carried out, you personally came to the temple to take a look. You discovered that although there were many Daoists and Buddhists who were all sanctimonious people, there were still a few who were truly capable.

[In particular, you saw a very special person inside.

[The former Chief Constable of the Hexa-Gate Organization, Yan Chixia.

[This was also the result of your special arrangements. Ever since you boarded the Eldest Princess’ ship, you had been thinking of ways to increase the strength of your own side.

[In this world, not only was Yan Chixia a chosen one but he was also considered an MC. Therefore, you definitely had to do your best to take him under your wing.

[It was not difficult for the Eldest Princess to revoke a wanted order.

[In fact, Yan Chixia’s exact location was found after many investigations.

[Then, someone brought the Eldest Princess’ invitation to Yan Chixia and brought him here.

[You called the Daoists, Buddhists, and Yan Chixia to the side without telling them that the country’s protector was a demon.

[You said to everyone calmly, “This time, the Grand Princess invited everyone here because she wants to ask everyone to help eliminate a demon…”

[The Daoists and Buddhists were not surprised. They had already expected that their trip to the capital would not be free. They would not get so many benefits for nothing.

[For cultivators like them, eliminating demons was not a difficult thing.

A Daoist stepped forward and said, “Your Highness, may I know what kind of demon you want to get rid of? How many years of cultivation does it have?”

[The cultivation levels in this world were very chaotic. It wasn’t the most common cultivation level. For example, the Tree Demon was at most at the Nascent Soul realm, but he was evaluated as a 1,000-year-old demon here.

[The Old Demon of Black Mountain was the same. They were both extremely powerful existences in this world.

“It’s a Centipede Spirit with a 1,000-year cultivation base.”

[Although they were called 1,000-year-old demons, these two were existences close to 10,000-year-old great demons. You didn’t tell these people about this.

[Upon hearing that it was only a 1,000-year-old cultivation base, the expressions of many experts became much better. They originally thought the Eldest Princess wanted to deal with a 10,000-year-old great demon.

[If that were the case, they wouldn’t agree to any amount of money.

[A 10,000-year-old great demon wasn’t something that a human could contend against.

[However, they were still very confident about a mere 10,000-year-old great demon.]
