Chapter 252 Construction
After returning from Fangshan, Zhou Wutian found a place to settle a few people, and devoted himself to the construction of Sanguan Town. As for Luo Hui and his brother, Hu Yu went to find them. Hu Yu's strength was only the fifth floor of Kaiyang, and this level is relatively common in the mountain city. Therefore, even if you enter the mountain city, you will not be discovered by the Xu family. Of course, this is just some speculations by Zhou Wutian. After all, it is not sure what the specific strength of the Xu family is now, so try to prevent situations that can be prevented and avoid exposing your own place in advance.
At present, Zhou Wutian lives on the first floor of Sanguan City, several buildings have been simply built up for use by the three major institutions and the City Lord's Mansion. They were originally allocated to the three major institutions and the City Lord's Mansion, but due to limited manpower, they were temporarily spaced out. The third floor buildings are more, and all the houses are concentrated here.
"Prince, Hu Yu has already set out. Before leaving, he used a Horcrux that can change his appearance and no one could notice it." You Hui stepped forward to report.
"Well, the construction of the city wall of Sanguan City is almost done. The general layout of the surrounding area has been completed. You can send someone to contact the mountain city." Zhou Wutian said.
"Will contact be too early? Although we have enough defense, it is still far from the overall layout. Now contact may threaten the mountain city to us in advance." You Hui said with great concern.
"There is no need to be completed in one go. The current building is only temporary. Although it is built by practitioners very quickly and strongly, it will definitely be uncomfortable to live for a long time, so continuing to build will only waste energy." Zhou Wutian said, "Wanbaotang will form an engineering team to be responsible for the construction of the inner city. After the work of the outer city, it will be built by new residents. There is no need to waste the energy of these people. They have the ability and skills, and it is the most important thing to devote themselves to the production of various industries."
"So that's it, I understand." You Hui nodded and responded.
"The details of these 100,000 people are relatively clear. In the future, all work cannot be separated from them, so we will give priority to entrusting important tasks." Zhou Wutian said, "People who come outside will not be allowed to enter the inner city unless they are particularly trusted."
"Relying on the mountain, all these can be done, and I will see more publicity in the future. However, the land in the outer city is several times larger than that in the inner city, and there is nothing. How to develop and attract the population?" You Hui asked.
"It's enough to have food." Zhou Wutian said, "In the southern part of the northern region, the power of heaven and earth is scarce, and wheat and rice cannot produce grain and fruit, so we can only feed on Su Zicao. We use formations to catalyze, so we don't have to worry about food at all. This is the capital that attracts people."
"Otherwise, the formation catalyzing of grain is to allow the grain to obtain special effects. It subtly affects the body of the eater in daily consumption. It has always been achieved by a large family. Although we can obtain a large amount of grain in this way, the cost is too high and it is not worth the effort. Moreover, it cannot be promoted in the future, which is not conducive to expanding the sphere of influence." You Hui said.
"The formation has been optimized by the Tiangong clan and has reduced the cost to the lowest. The effect of the formation is used to catalyze the output, so the grain produced is not much different from that produced by ordinary people, and it has no effect of promoting cultivation." Zhou Wutian said, "Although the cost is not worth it, Sanguan City will be responsible for the grain supply of the entire Fang country in the future and gradually control it, so this cost is worth it."
"Will it be too single to supply all the grain in Sanguan City? Now Fang State is not in our hands and everything is easy to say, but if Fang State is controlled in the future and all the grain is supplied by Sanguan City, it would be a bit dangerous." You Hui said.
"Although the power of the world is scarce in the world that cannot grow rice and wheat, it can grow sweet potatoes. Although the yield cannot be increased, it is many times more than Su Zicao, which is enough for them to fill their stomachs. However, if you want to eat well and want to eat full, you still need the support of Sanguancheng. This is the future layout." Zhou Wutian said.
"Your Majesty, you have thought of everything you should think of." You Hui said.
"In addition to grain and water sources, Mr. Yun found several relatively large water flows and underground rivers in Fangshan. Wanbaotang has started construction and ditches to dig canals. It will take not long to get drinking water to meet the entire Sanguan City." Zhou Wutian said, "I have considered the most basic and important things for you. What is left is the responsibility of you, the city lord. I hope that whenever I need it, except for the three departments, Sanguan City can support it enough."
"I dare not speak nonsense, I can only do my best." You Hui nodded and responded, and suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy.
"It's not about doing your best, I want you to do your best." Zhou Wutian said, "Time does not wait for anyone, and opportunity does not wait for anyone. Only by giving your best can you do it and keep up with the pace of others."
"I understand, I will do my best." You Hui responded quickly, and suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulder was as heavy as a mountain.
The two continued to chat for a few words, and You Hui hurried to do the work.
"The prince is so kind, so he will be very useful in the future." You Xu walked out from the side and said.
"It's good that your son can take good care of Sanguan City. Don't think about anything else. Just put your mind on your granddaughter and train more." Zhou Wutian said.
"I don't expect him to have a great future. I'm afraid that he can't even manage Sanguan City well." You Xu sighed, "Qianshan Town is too small, so his vision is too small, but the future development of these Sanguan City is comparable to that of Yu'an Imperial City. With his current level, Sanguan City can't be brought up at all."
"There is no big problem, because you are there." Zhou Wutian said, "In addition, your vision is much smaller. The Yu'an Imperial City you mentioned is a little bigger. Sanguan City will definitely be much better than it in the future. There is no need to think about it. Just stay in Sanguan City with your son when you have this vision."
"Oh, I'm old, it's really not possible," You Xu nodded and sighed, "But my daughter has just entered the world and her vision has not yet been fixed. She should be able to achieve great success in the future." You Xu asked Zhou Wutian tentatively.
"I don't have to say whether you can become a talent or not. It depends on how you, the grandfather, can manage Sanguan City in the future. Sanguan City is her starting point in the future." Zhou Wutian said, not directly agreeing to You Xu, but giving You Xu the opportunity to make choices and decisions.
"Don't worry, my elders, we must do our best." You Xu said.
"You go quickly and give your son a long eye." Zhou Wutian said.
"Okay, since that's the case, I won't disturb you much." You Xu nodded and said goodbye immediately.
"Qin Bo, how is the infiltration work in Shancheng?" Zhou Wutian asked.
"It's still a bit difficult. The people in this place are too weak, and it will take some time to imitate their bodies." Qin Bo came over and said, "But the population here is too large and too dense, and it will be done soon."
"Well, keep working hard, how is it going on from the top of Qianshan Mountain?" Zhou Wutian asked.
"When you come back to the prince, thirty people have reached the early stage of Yuheng, 2,000 people have reached the Kaiyang level, and 10,000 people have reached the Yaoguang level. Now all have been invested in the construction of Sanguan City, but if you need to convene, you can all gather within a quarter of an hour." Qin Chao replied.
"Well, it's not bad. Recently, some people were drawn out to train how to manage the army. The army will be formed soon in the future." Zhou Wutian said, "How is Wanbaotang?"
"Prince, the engineering team of Wanbaotang has begun to be formed. In the later stage, we will gradually take over the construction of Sanguan City. The blacksmith, craftsman and craftsmanship workshop are ready. When the construction of Sanguan City is freed, all of them will be started." Bai Chen replied.
"You can put the rest and put the paper production first first." Zhou Wutian said, "The bulletin board in the city and the bulletin pavilion will be built as soon as possible. I will first control the way of disappearing."
"I understand, I will give priority to solving the paper problem." Bai Chen nodded and responded.
"Of the 100,000 people who followed us, 30,000 have fixed positions in our institutions, so the position of these 30,000 people must remain unchanged, while the remaining 70,000 people are allowed to trade freely. Whether it is establishing chambers of commerce, establishing mercenary groups, opening shops, etc., as long as they comply with the law of Sanguan City, they will be supported and encouraged. Those who want to exchange foreign trade as long as they do not harm the interests of Sanguan City, are allowed and do not stop them." Zhou Wutian began to arrange the direction and model of Sanguan City's future development to everyone.
"Prince, what if someone wants to leave Sanguan City and settle in another town?" Qin Bo asked, "In that case, our technology may leak."
"If someone wants to leave, that is their choice, and there is no need to interfere. As for technology, it is enough to keep Wanbaotang confidential. Some of the technologies among the people are irrelevant. Moreover, if Fang Guo can master some basic technologies, it will not be so difficult for us to expand our power in the future." Zhou Wutian said.
"Yes, Wanbaotang has mastered the technology countless times ahead of Sanguan City. And as long as we master the supply and production of raw materials, even if someone steals the technology, the problem is not too big." Bai Chen said, "But if someone really insists on leaking it, then I will trouble Brother Qin at that time."
"Don't worry, if there is a problem, I will definitely help solve it with all my strength." Qin Bo said.
"Okay, let's go and do your own business. After the negotiations with Shancheng are over, we will launch an engineering team to build a highway from Sanguan City." Zhou Wutian said.
"As for the order." Everyone nodded, then turned around and participated in their positions.
"What are your plans for the future?" Zhou Wutian asked, and then three of them came over.
"I have no place to go, so I can only follow the prince and the grasshopper on a rope to continue hanging." Su Yi smiled. Since he left Yu'an, although he was far away from the family, he has become more cheerful.
"So too. I plan to follow the prince and continue to travel around the world. When I return to Yu'an in the future, I will be able to lose the majesty of those people." Zhang Yong said.
"Well, you are the slipperiest of these people I have met. With you, I will lose a lot of talk in the future." Zhou Wutian nodded and said, Zhang Yong was a little embarrassed to speak.
"You? What are you going to do?" Zhou Wutian then turned around and asked Zhang Li.
"Go back to the prince, the little girl has no ambitions and only wants to take care of her husband and children at home." Zhang Li blushed as she said that.
"I have heard about you." Zhou Wutian turned his face to look at Zhang Li and Zhang Yong, "One of the Zhang family in the imperial city and the other of the Zhang family in Qianshan Town is a rare fate. You can get along well."
"Thank you for your promise." The two of them responded quickly.
"Since you two are willing to follow me, then you should clean up and prepare to join me in Fangguo and explore the background of this Fangguo." Zhou Wutian said.
"A lonely man can set out at any time." Su Yi said.
"I have no problem here, I can do it anytime." Zhang Yong also said.
"I have no problem, I can set off at any time." Yu Ling also said from the side.
"You've been to Fangguo, it's so eye-catching, so let's take a look at the house in Sanguan City." Zhou Wutian patted Yu Ling's shoulder and said.
"It's okay, I just put on makeup, so no one can recognize me." Yu Ling said mischievously.
"No, you stay here, don't say much. The current situation is not within my control." Zhou Wutian said, "Don't cause trouble with you."
"Okay." Yu Ling muttered, a little disappointed.
