Prince Ji's Mansion moved very quickly. Wang Hongfu quickly brought two hundred guys who could write to Mingde Gate.

Li Shimin was also very effective and sent five thousand right-hand military guards to wait for Li Shen's dispatch.

Li Shen stood on the tower and began to assign tasks. Five thousand right-wing guards divided the people below into several parts.

One thousand people per square formed more than twenty square formations.

There are Youwu guards in the middle separated by a human wall. The people are naturally afraid of the officers and soldiers holding swords.

So how to arrange and do it.

The people led by Wang Hongfu moved out tables and chairs and logged in on site outside the city.

People lined up in square formations to register in an orderly manner, and then were arranged to set up temporary residences in designated areas.

Fortunately, it's already February, and although the spring flowers haven't bloomed yet, it's not freezing to the point of death. Otherwise, Li Shen would have to build a house and it would be even more troublesome.

The registration speed is not fast because there are many things to register, such as name, place of origin, and customs clearance documents.

Li Shimin stood there and watched Li Shen issue instructions one after another in an orderly manner.

All the food from Prince Ji's Mansion was also shipped.

The food that tens of thousands of people eat is nothing to Prince Ji's Mansion. Li Shen has 200,000 acres of fertile land in Chang'an, and his annual output is astronomical.

"Old Shi, how are you going to arrange these people? There is still almost a month until March, are you going to feed them just like this?" Li Shimin asked, looking at the crowd below.

"Aye, they didn't bring much dry food when they came out. If we don't feed them, they will starve to death.

But we really can’t let them stay here. I will arrange for them to go to Chiling in batches as soon as possible to make preparations for building the city first. "Li Shen also looked at the people below and said.

We can't let them stay outside Chang'an City. The hidden danger is too great. Send them to Chiling and dig the foundation first.

Always give them something to do.

Moreover, digging the foundation in advance will make it easier to build the city wall in the future. Building important towns cannot be built on flat ground.

The city wall also needs to dig a foundation, otherwise if someone digs a tunnel or something in the future, it will be fine if they start a tunnel battle.

Digging the foundation and tamping the earth are the foundation.

"Well, just make your arrangements. Everything will be built according to the drawings drawn by Yan Liben. The courtiers have already seen the drawings. There is no problem." Li Shimin nodded.

"Yeah, I've seen that picture too, and I think it can be a little bigger. This time we're pouring it with cement, which is countless times faster than building it with stone.

Why not build a capital city like Liaodong City?

When the Tubo people see it, they will be frightened to death. "

Li Shen also saw that picture. Yan Liben was too conservative. The city wall was two meters wide and three feet high. It was of no use.

Anyway, it’s just a matter of wasting more cement.

"A city like Liaodong City?" Li Shimin was surprised. A city like Liaodong City was already a very large city.

"Don't worry, Aye, I know what I'm doing. It's just a matter of spending a little more money, and I'll make it back in two years." Li Shen assured him, patting his chest.

"Okay, you can make your own decision, but you have to act according to your ability. If you are really short of money, I can lend you some more." Li Shimin said.

Li Shen's eyes widened when he heard that Li Shimin wanted to borrow money again. He was so surprised that he really wanted to ask, 'Aye, are you terminally ill? ’

Isn’t this how TV dramas in previous lives played out? Only when he knows that he is about to die will he distribute his property to his children.

Even when a person is about to die, his words are good.

"Hmph, why are you staring? I just want Chiling to build the city as soon as possible. Remember that the money I borrowed from you must be repaid." Li Shimin snorted, turned around and left back to the palace.

Li Shen stared blankly at his father leaving, and couldn't help but think to himself: 'How about borrowing some more? ’

As for what his father said about paying back the money, he didn't take it seriously at all. As long as I pretended to be poor, I wouldn't pay back the money.

Li Shen didn't stay here much, he had to go back to do things.

Returning to the palace, Li Shen once again summoned the three giants of the palace to hold an impromptu meeting.

"Ahem~~ Let me say a few words first, this... everyone must know what happened outside Mingde Gate. Lao Wang, you have a very heavy task. You must register the information of these workers as soon as possible.

Arrange 1,000 of them into one team, and they are not allowed to mix randomly. Edit their numbers so that they can be easily found when looking for people.

Those who are not qualified are advised to return, and the dry food they return will be provided by the palace.

Tell them that although the pay for going to Chiling this time is high, it is also very dangerous, and they may die in a foreign country, and let them think clearly.

He also warned them not to make trouble, and anyone who made trouble would be sent back and beheaded if the trouble was too big. "

At this time, Li Shen could only think of using Chongdian to suppress them.

"Your Majesty, there are so many people gathered outside Chang'an City. If someone deliberately provokes it, it will be detrimental to Your Majesty.

We still need to find a way to get them out of here, or go to Chiling now. "Wang Xuance said.

"Well, Xuance is right. I have already thought about it. A team of one thousand people will be responsible for escorting the supplies and the food they use to Chiling in batches.

As long as they don't gather together, a thousand people won't be able to stir up any trouble.

It's up to you, Rengui, to arrange this. The guard battalion consists of a team of fifty people, all equipped with war horses, and will take care of these one thousand people heading to Chiling.

If anyone instigates a civil uprising on the way, he will be killed directly.

After arriving, they organized them to set up their own camp, and Wang Hongfu sent the people who managed them to go with them.

No matter what, you must not make any mistakes, you know? This time I allow people to die. "

What Li Shen fears most is that someone will incite the people to riot, and it will definitely be these innocent people who will be punished in the end.

"Sir, take orders."

"Your Majesty, what should we do about the cement matter? It's been a month." Wang Hongfu asked.

"Have you found everyone you were asked to find?"

"My lord, we have already informed you." Wang Hongfu replied.

"Well, let them go to heaven and earth tomorrow, and I will personally conduct the bidding." Li Shen nodded.

"Your Majesty, cement alone is not enough. We also need iron and wood." Wang Hongfu said again.

"You can contact us about this. The wood can be transported from neighboring states and counties. As for the iron, it seems that I have to go find the old thief Changsun."

It was impossible for Li Shen to find the family. Even if the family sold it to him, the price would be very high.

Moreover, Li Shen knew that his large purchase of iron would increase the price of iron on the market.

"By the way, Lao Wang, send someone to Goguryeo to inform the workshops there that they can start working. If any officials ask, just say it is the property of our Prince Ji's Mansion.

At the same time, we continue to build blast furnaces. The iron ore there is rich and the reserves are amazing, which can fully meet the needs of Datang.

It's just that it's too far away from Chiling, and the transportation fee may be more expensive than iron. But the cost of shipping to Datang is not that high. "

Li Shen privately occupied one of the largest iron mines in Goguryeo. The workshop was built last year but has not been started.

At the end of the meeting, Li Shen stood up.

"Okay everyone, please do your job. A bright future is waiting for us."

Several people also stood up and saluted, and then went about their own business.
