Chapter 65 City of Hope

Yu Qing pondered for a moment and asked, "How many people can the food and money support?"

"5 to [-] people are still without pressure, after all, the previous family background is quite thick!"

"Recruitment!" Yu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "A full 5 people will be recruited! Then we can recruit some more people to serve as the field army. Half of the time is farming and farming, and half of the time is training and replenishing at any time!"

Shen Guan nodded, after all, Yu Qing did whatever he said, and it's not that he couldn't afford to support these people.

Time passed day by day, every week everyone gathered together to discuss matters, even Bai Yunhua and Li Shu who were far away in Beiguan, Yuyang Capital also came back.

At this time, winter was approaching and the weather was getting colder. As night fell and everyone returned home, Yu Qing hurriedly arranged for his servants to make some hot soup.

After closing the door tightly, Yu Qing and the others started their weekly daily discussion, thinking that there was nothing to do as usual, but Qiu Liang stood up unexpectedly.

"My lord, I have something to report!"

Yu Qing nodded and signaled Qiu Liang to start talking.

"Sir, our spies have spread out recently, but the news they got is not very good!"

Yu Qing frowned and said, "What's the matter? What happened?"

"Nantian City was renamed Nandu, and Nangongtian took control of the government and gave many of his subordinates more officials and titles!" Qiu Liang paused and continued, "The Nangong Department is now above the imperial court. Word."

"Use the Son of Heaven to command the feudal lords!" Yu Qing squinted his eyes and said, "Nangongtian really made a good plan!"

"The point is that the little lord has started to be devoured now. The small forces around him have been wiped out for no reason. Now it can be said that everyone is in danger!"

"So soon?" Yu Qing was also shocked when he heard the news. "How long have you been back before the annexation started?"

"It's not just the king of Zhennan, but the other two as well, annex the little lord and expand the territory!"

"Train troops first and collect grain first, and as I said before, accumulate grain and become king later!" Yu Qing said firmly, he would not hit an egg with an egg against a stone now, the only way is to survive and develop!

A few months passed and the cold winter swept across the land. Yu Qing and others focused on the development of diligent military training, and the Yuyang area was thriving.

Yu Qing directly transferred Shen Guan to Dubeiguan. The only task was to start the commercialization of the market. After all, only the money in circulation is useful!
In the inn next to the Dubeiguan market, businessmen in twos and threes gathered together to drink and chat.

"Business here is easy to do. Things are easy to sell and easy to buy." A businessman said with a smile on his face.

"That's not it. The refined salt here is a good thing. I heard that it was made by the uncle of Yuyang County. You can make a lot of money when you bring it back home. The dignitaries line up to buy it!"

"Hey, I'm in the refined salt business? That's awesome. It's hard to get this thing now. Do you need a certificate to buy it?"

The businessman was very happy to be praised before and explained, "The refined salt qualification certificate is easy to get, just go to Mr. Shen Guan to apply for it. As long as you abide by the rules, you can still make a lot of profits!"

"That's right, under the rule of Yuyang County, the taxation is not high, although it is not the lowest, but there is no money to spend behind the scenes!"

"That's right, there are no soldiers asking for money at the gate of the city. If you knew that you would have to pay nearly ten kinds of money in addition to taxes to bring goods into the city?"

Others nodded and said, "It's the same everywhere except here. We have soldiers standing guard on the main road outside the city gate asking for money, and all the money we earn is fed to them!"

The people at the counter in the corner laughed secretly when they heard the conversation. Most of the shops in Dubeiguan are now run by Yu Qing, and the shopkeepers inside are all Qiu Liang's subordinates. They collect information while making money without delay!

The news was finally sent back to Dingbeiguan Yu Qing looked at it and said with a smile, "They are all suicidal. People can carry a boat and they can overturn it!"

At this time, Yang Fan said, "My lord, the expansion of Dingbei Pass is basically completed, does the name have to be changed?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned and forgot about it.Yu Qing also felt that he had to change his name, if he had known this was his lair!
They don't call it whatever the city is, and calling themselves Dingbeiguan is a bit...not on the table!
"Then let's think about it together and tell us what you think!"

"Nangongtian is called Nandu, why don't we call it Beidu?"

Yang Fan directly vetoed it, "It's not right, it's called Nandu in the place where the emperor is, so if we want to call Beidu, it's not right!"

"Should I call it Zhenbei City?"

Yu Qing shook his head, "The two lairs of Zhenxi and Zhendong are named Zhenbeicheng, and I'm not the king of Zhenbei!"

"How about Beiyuan City?"

"Beiyun City?"

"Mighty City?"

Everyone spoke one after another, Yu Qing shook his head for every name.

Even more than a dozen names are useless, and everyone is at a loss for words. If you say that Yu Qing's subordinates are good at doing things, but the literary talents are not very good.

"Why don't we call it City of Hope?" Yu Qing said his thoughts, and everyone pondered it carefully.

"Hope City, Hope, Hope!" Yang Fan's eyes lit up and said, "A City of Hope in a troubled world?"

Yu Qing nodded, "That's right! In troubled times, human life is worthless, so there must be a glimmer of hope, right?"

Everyone nodded, not to mention that this name was many times stronger than what everyone said before, and the meaning was also very good!
"Ding, the detection host named the main city City of Hope, reward: a city plaque (from everyone)! I hope the host will continue to work hard to develop!"

Go back to the bedroom and take out the system reward plaque and say to everyone, "Hang it up tomorrow!"

Looking at the huge plaque in front of them, the corners of their mouths twitched. It was obviously made in advance. If such a large plaque was really made by Yu Qingxian, they would eat it!

At night Yu Qing lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep, development?develop!The task given by the system is development, so prove that you want to get the reward. Another way is to develop the territory!
Development is nothing more than construction and trade. Apart from silver, you also need to have your own unique things. At this time, Yu Qing feels that it seems a bit monotonous to produce salt here.

Early the next morning, Yu Qing sent someone to summon Shen Guan back from Dubeiguan. Shen Guan came back at noon!
"What's the matter, big brother? What's wrong, you're in such a hurry to find me?"

"Do you think Koreans are rich?"

Shen Guan shook his head, "They are just a group of herdsmen. They don't know how to make things or trade. They just live on cattle and sheep. When they run out of food, they go south to rob us!"

"Goryeo is not as smart as the Shangao people in the northwest!" Shen Guan continued, "Anyway, the Shangao people are self-sufficient and rarely go south to grab food!"

Shanco people?
