The Poor Son-in-Law of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 140 Developing Dragon City and Recruiting Residents

After Zhang Hong sold out the food, he took the money and left. He found Hu Haiyu, and the two of them walked together. It's not a waste of money either.

Ye Chen stood on the completed city wall, watching batch after batch of food transportation teams coming and batch after batch of food transportation teams leaving. Many people were accusing Ye Chen of wrongdoing, so he couldn't help laughing secretly. .

"Hey, can you blame me for this?"

Ye Chen shook his head, looking like he was being good-looking when he got the cheap price: "How generous was the price I gave at the beginning? It's because you are too greedy!"

"General, General!"

At this moment, Liu Ren rushed over in a hurry: "Your Majesty has received news that you need to go back to Chang'an and report on your work!"

With that said, Liu Ren handed Ye Chen the memorial with Li Shimin's seal on it.

Ye Chen didn't even look at it, and said directly: "Tell him, if you don't have time, just say that I'm busy building the city and can't get away. If you want to see me, let him come by himself!"

After listening to Ye Chen's words, Liu Ren was so scared that he almost fell off the city wall, and said in a cold sweat, "General, is this bad? If His Majesty knows, he must think that you are resisting the decree. Longyan will be furious when the time comes. I'm afraid it's..."

"If you want to do this, you should do it. Although Li Shimin is the emperor, he can throw away Lao Tzu after use. Now if he wants to exile me, he will exile me. If he wants to see me, he will see me. What is he doing?"

Ye Chen was very displeased, and put his hand on Liu Ren's shoulder: "Old Liu, you can't wrong yourself too much, your contribution to the court is not small, but Li Shimin sent you here, what does that mean? It means that you are just a dispensable tool in his heart!"

"Look at the environment when we first came here. You are not in good health. If you live here for a long time, you may have a short life of ten or eight years!"

"So, don't you feel chilled when the emperor treats you like this? We don't rebel, but we have to show our attitude, and we can't be slaughtered by others, you know?"

After listening to Ye Chen's words, Liu Ren's legs became weak from fright.

Be good, you are yelling Li Shimin one by one, isn't this called rebellion?
You almost have the word rebellion written all over your face.

What crime did I do, I want to hang out with you!
Liu Ren wanted to cry for a while, so he could only smile wryly and said: "General Ye, you are making it too difficult for me..."

"Don't be afraid, just say what I mean, that kid Li Er can't rely on you!"

Ye Chen patted him on the shoulder, making Liu Ren's body a little shorter.

"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll report it like this..."

After speaking, Liu Ren sighed, shook his head and left.

As soon as Liu Ren left, Ye Chen suddenly chuckled.

In the past three months, many buildings have been built here in the new city. Every time Ye Chen builds a new building, he will sign in there once. Now the rewards for signing in are so rich that there is no limit.

A large number of rewards gave Ye Chen the capital to compete against the Li Tang Dynasty.

Now in Ye Chen's system backpack, there are many crop seeds, soldiers and horses, equipment, supplies, and a lot of sign-in points, which can be purchased in the system mall.

Ye Chen would secretly summon some out each time and slowly join in the construction of the new city, so now Ye Chen has 10,000+ people under his command.

These people put down their weapons and become workers, and take up weapons and become soldiers.

Most of them are elite soldiers like Qin Ruishi, and Ye Chen even summoned many advisors of famous historical generals.

For example, Zhuge Wolong is now in charge of Ye Chen.

There were also Xu Chu and Xiahou Dun who showed Ye Chen the gate.

Meng Tian, ​​Wang Jian and others are Ye Chen's security captains.

Bian Que, Hua Tuo and others are Ye Chen's hygienists.

In this way, Ye Chen still has a large number of soldiers who have not been summoned, such as tiger and leopard cavalry, white horse righteous followers, Beiwei army, trapped camp, Beifu soldiers, Guanning iron cavalry, etc., which add up to 40 to [-] soldiers.

A large number of crop seeds have been planted all over the mountains and fields. Although it is impossible to harvest immediately after planting, only some vegetables with a short growth cycle have already been harvested.

Now Ye Chen has bought a large amount of grain, which is enough for him to eat for several years.

So he doesn't need to worry about food.

Ye Chen can develop to this day with peace of mind, thanks to the boy Liu Ren, who fooled Li Shimin in all kinds of ways.

According to Li Shimin's request, Liu Ren had to report the situation every ten days, and every time he reported the news, it would make Ye Chen's statement infinitely miserable.

In fact, Ye Chen didn't know how beautiful it was.

Don't talk about transferring Ye Chen back to Chang'an now, even if Li Shimin rushed over to kneel and beg him now, he would not go back.

In the past, you loved to answer and ignored me, but now you can't afford me.

If you don't accompany the sunset, who are you when you come back from the mountain?
Now that the new city has begun to take shape, Ye Chen has also chosen a very famous name - Dragon City.

It's just that the name is currently declared internally and has not been made public to the outside world.

The construction of Dragon City is about the same now, and there are many residential buildings, but the residents are either those criminals or soldiers. There are no normal people. Without the people, it means that there is no economy.

No economy means no money.

Ye Chen is almost out of money now, so he has to find a way to get some money.

So Ye Chen immediately shouted: "Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang!"

When Zhuge Liang heard the call, he immediately put down the ledger, and came to Ye Chen, holding the small fan: "I have met the lord! May I ask why the lord called me?"

"Now go and draft a document announcement, and then send people to the surrounding states to announce it, saying that Dragon City is recruiting residents!"

"Requirements: Have certain financial resources, stable family members, and if you are doing business, you need to have original industrial assets to support!"

"But anyone who meets the requirements can get a house or a shop! A family can only get one house or shop. If you want a house, don't want a shop. If you want a shop, don't want a house!"

"According to what I said, you go to draw up the detailed rules in detail, and then release them!"

"Yes!"

After Zhuge Liang listened to Ye Chen's words, he firmly remembered the main points of his words, then turned around and went down the city wall.

This is to lure people over with benefits, and when they come over, they will cut a handful of leeks.

Anyway, the construction of this Dragon City is almost free of cost, and those criminal officials will not need to be paid in the future. Their work is atonement, so what kind of work do they want?
Just give it a bite.

When Ye Chen came here, Li Shimin didn't give him rations a few times, it was Ye Chen who was trying to make the meal.

Although Ye Chen spent a lot of money, all his money was used to buy food.

All raw materials in the city are mined locally, with only labor loss and no labor cost.
