Chapter 971 - 971 827 Fertility

?Chapter 971: Chapter 827 Fertility Chapter 971: Chapter 827 Fertility Qing Dynasty.

Ever since the mortal nations on Falling Sky Island were taken over by Fang Xi, the Cultivators of Nine State Sect gradually couldn’t tolerate the troublesome scene of small countries and conflicting government orders. They began to consciously integrate the various dynasties.

First, based on the small countries, they formed the ‘Greater Qing United Nation’ to reclaim economic and military power.

Next, they started to promote education, planning to achieve complete unification and modernize the country after three generations.

In this way, they also kept the promises initially made to those monarchs.

It could be said that higher-level Immortal Cultivators, owing to their long lifespans, possess such patience.

Three generations, just a mere sixty years…

But those mortal monarchs, they had long since died of old age or illness, one round or even several rounds, so this wasn’t just about abandoning them after using them up, and the resistance faced when implementing government orders was also smaller.

…

In a city, the citizens gathered under the notice board, watching as the authorities posted new announcements.

Thanks to the widespread establishment of schools, there were still some people among the populace who could read.

Immediately, someone read aloud:

“Birth Encouragement Order!”

“The royal edict declares: The people should multiply their offspring, to strengthen the vitality of the state and the Incense God Path… formally enforcing the previous laws… if a girl remains unmarried at eighteen, and a man remains unmarried at twenty, punish their parents with a fine of two ‘jia’… Establish hospitals, mothers to enter the gynecology and obstetrics department…”

“Birth rewards doubled, if people have a son, reward three hundred catties of ‘Fire Corn’, an ox, if a daughter, reward three hundred catties of ‘Jade Corn’, a fat pig, those who have more than three offspring reaching adulthood, reward a lower-grade Spirit Stone… those who have more than ten offspring reaching adulthood, nominate a child to enter the ‘Immortal Gate’!”

…

“This… this is divine grace from the court.”

An old man, having heard this, dismisses the previous punishments with a snort. After all, in ancient times, girls were commonly married off at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and by eighteen, they were considered old maids.

As for men, they needed to marry early too, otherwise, how could they produce offspring?

Being childless… in ancient times, that was a great filial sin!

This was actually a difference in the mindsets of the Cultivators of the Nine State Sect, and since childbirth at too young of an age was actually detrimental to a smooth delivery, they had postponed the legal marriage age by a few years.
