[Condition 5: Have at least three affiliated counties]

The next stage after the county seat is the capital city, and among the five conditions for promotion to the capital city, except for the title, Chang'an has now met all of them.

The main reason is that there are no new requirements for the four indicators of politics, economy, culture, and military.

This is the beginning.

For Tang Jing, a title or something was the simplest requirement.

He took a look at the title and found that the current merit value was 76,000 points, which was only 24,000 points away from the 100,000 merit points required by the third-class marquis.

So why are you hesitating?

Immediately consume 5 million glory points and convert them into 500,000 merit points.

"Your title has been promoted to the third degree of Marquis!"

"Your title has been promoted to second class Marquis!"

"Your title has been promoted to First Class Marquis!"

He went right to the spot in one go and changed his title from first-class earl to first-class marquis in one go.

I have just been promoted to a noble title.

The familiar system prompt sounded again in Tang Jing's ears——

"Chang'an County has met all the upgrade conditions. Do you want to upgrade?"

"upgrade!"

"Chang'an County is upgraded to a first-level capital, with merit points +5,000 points and territory experience points +500,000 points."

This is a regular reward.

"Chang'an County is the first territory in the world to be promoted to a first-level capital. The basic reward is doubled, and an additional B-level talent summoning card and an A-level talent summoning card are awarded!"

Oops!

Tang Jing finally got the A-level card he had been dreaming of. He didn't know what kind of super boss he would be able to summon later, but he was very much looking forward to it.

"Your lord profession has been upgraded to level 31!"

"Hidden building the Savage Temple and unlock the last wild race - the Kuafu clan!"

"Hidden building Chongxian Pavilion, unlock nine summoning places!"

[Territorial area]: 280,000/50,000 square kilometers

[Territory population]: 19.5 million/2 million

[Refugee Refresh]: 50*2(n-1) people/day

[Remarks: Currently n=6, 1,600 refugees are refreshed every day]

--slightly--

【Promotion Conditions】:

[Condition 1: 1 level 5 crystal core]

[Condition 2: The title of lord is at least second-class marquis]

[Condition 3: Territory population reaches the upper limit]

[Condition 4: The four indicators of politics, economy, culture, and military must not be less than 30 points]

[Condition 5: Have at least five affiliated counties]

After the territory entered the capital stage, the base value of the refugees was refreshed every day, soaring from the previous twenty to fifty in one fell swoop.

Combined with Chang'an's diamond-level territorial monument, 1,600 refugees can be refreshed every day.

It can add 48,000 new people every month.

It's still quite impressive.

The conditions for promotion to a second-level capital once again raised the requirements for four political, economic, cultural, and military indicators, making it impossible for Chang'an to upgrade to the third level in a row.

That’s a pity!

Tang Jing wondered if he could recruit some cultural celebrities from Zunlong Kingdom to improve the cultural index.

But think about it again.

There are no cultural celebrities in Zunlong Kingdom. There are just a lot of people who are seeking fame and reputation.

However, being successfully promoted to a first-level capital city is already a huge reward. Not only has the Savage Temple unlocked the last wild race, but the Chongxian Pavilion has also added nine new summoning places.

Thus.

The remaining vacancies for the four county guards were immediately filled.

………

After the territory was upgraded, Tang Jing did not rush to check out the Wilderness Temple and Chongxian Pavilion. Instead, he took out two B-level talent summoning cards and one A-level talent summoning card that the system had just rewarded.

A-level cards must be kept to summon generals.

For B-level cards, Tang Jing wanted to give it a try and choose a special type that he had never chosen before. He wanted to take a gamble and see if he could summon any historical and cultural celebrities.

This will enhance the cultural index of the territory.

What I can't forget in my heart is that I still want Chang'an to achieve the miracle of being upgraded to three levels in a row.

"call!"

Two white lights flashed, and two scribes appeared in front of Tang Jing.

"Du Fu!"

"Zhu Xi!"

"Meet the adults!"

"Oooh!"

Tang Jing was really lucky, he really summoned two big names in the cultural world.

Everyone knows the poet Du Fu, right?

When he was a boy, Du Fu traveled to Wuyue, Qi and Zhao successively, during which time he went to Luoyang but failed to pass the examination.

After the age of thirty-five, he first took the examination in Chang'an and failed. Later, he presented gifts to the emperor and gave gifts to nobles. He failed in officialdom and witnessed the extravagance and social crisis of the upper class of the Tang Dynasty.

In the fourteenth year of Tianbao, the Anshi Rebellion broke out and Tongguan fell. Du Fu moved to many places.

In the second year of Qianyuan, he abandoned his official position and went to Sichuan. Although he escaped the war and lived a relatively stable life, he still cared about the common people and national affairs. He created "Ascend the High", "Spring View", "Northern Expedition", "Three Officials", "Three Farewells", etc.

Masterpiece.

About 1,500 poems in his lifetime have been preserved, most of which are collected in "Du Gongbu Collection".

In the winter of the fifth year of the Dali calendar, Du Fu died of illness at the age of fifty-nine.

………

Zhu Xi, a master of Neo-Confucianism in the Southern Song Dynasty.

His ancestral home is Wuyuan County, Huizhou Prefecture, and he was born in Youxi, Nanjian Prefecture.

Zhu Xi passed the Jinshi examination at the age of nineteen. He served as the prefect of Nankang in Akarin Province, the prefect of Zhangzhou in Fujian, and the governor of eastern Zhejiang. He was an upright and promising official and promoted the construction of academies.

The official worshiped Huanzhang Pavilion as a minister and lecturer, and gave lectures to Emperor Ningzong of the Song Dynasty.

In his later years, he was banned by the Qingyuan Party and was listed as the "leader of pseudo-academics", and was demoted from his official position and enshrined in the shrine.

He died in the sixth year of Qingyuan at the age of seventy-one.

Later, he was posthumously given the title of Grand Master and Duke of Hui State, and was given the posthumous title of "Wen". In his later life, he was called Zhu Wengong.

Zhu Xi was a student of Li Tong, the third disciple of "Er Cheng". Together with Er Cheng, he was known as the "Cheng-Zhu School". He was also the only person who was not a direct disciple of Confucius and was enshrined in the Confucius Temple and ranked among the twelve philosophers of Dacheng Hall.

This shows its status in Confucianism.

He was the master of Neo-Confucianism and a representative figure of Fujian studies. He was honored as Zhu Zi by later generations. His Neo-Confucian thoughts had a great influence and became the official philosophy of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

Zhu Xi wrote many works in his life, including Annotations on Chapters and Sentences of the Four Books, Interpretation of Tai Chi Pictures, Interpretation of Tongshu, Readings of Zhouyi, and Annotations on Chu Ci. Later generations compiled "The Complete Works of Zhu Zi" and "Collection of Zhu Zi's Yuxiang".

Among them, "Collected Commentary on Chapters and Sentences of the Four Books" has become an imperial textbook and the standard for imperial examinations.

………

"Okay, okay!"

Feeling that he was extremely lucky, Tang Jing couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.

With the addition of poet sage Du Fu and Neo-Confucian scholar Zhu Xi, Chang'an's cultural index has soared from the previous 25 points to a terrifying 40 points, removing the label of "cultural desert" in one fell swoop.

It can be seen from this that cultural celebrities have a blessing effect on the territorial cultural index.

And as the cultural index showed, Chang'an finally met all the conditions for promotion to a second-level capital.

In Tang Jing's ear.
