A small private banquet was held at the City Hall of New Sun City, which is where Yi Cheng handles affairs on weekdays.

Although there are not many candles, the living room is quite bright. Qi Tak observed it curiously and found that it was a glass product that was shining.

When will glass shine?And it was so eye-catching, just when Kai Tak was curious, dinner was already served on the table.

The one who served the dishes was a muscular bull orc woman, the copper ring on her nose jingled, which made Qi Tak wonder if the man opposite had a special hobby.

The dishes served were dishes that Qi Tak had never seen before. The first dish was served on a plate with a mass of objects on it. Qi Tak tried to taste it.

It is found that it is made of chili and eggs, and the taste is quite delicious.

What a novel way to eat this!Qi Tak suddenly seemed to have opened the door to a new world, shoveling all the food on the plate into his mouth.

Yi Cheng was frightened by this crazy dog's way of eating, isn't it just scrambled eggs with green peppers, it's as if he has never eaten it before.

Yi Cheng took a bowl of white rice slowly, he likes to eat it with rice.

Then there are many dishes for Kai Tak to gain knowledge, such as the deliciously roasted fish, which tastes sour and sweet, and the sweet candy, which is actually fatty pork and yam.

Kai Tak felt like a bumpkin, completely unable to control his desire to eat.

When Qi De was overwhelmed by eating, Yi Cheng took a towel and wiped his mouth, then said to Qi De: "I don't know what you plan to do here this time?"

Qi De rubbed his stomach, "My lord, this time my lord mainly sent me to recall the Shadow Guards, and at the same time my lord asked me to thank you for taking care of them for so long."

Qi Tak took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Yi Cheng. Yi Cheng took it and glanced at it. It said the ransom that Salah brought this time.

Among them, there are [-] gold coins alone, not counting other things, the total value should be close to [-].

Yi Cheng handed the list to the cow orc woman behind her, and asked her to notify Chloe to send someone to check and accept.

Yi Cheng hadn't expected that the thirty assassins in Hana would be so important. Thirty thousand gold coins was not a small amount. Originally, the amount Yi Cheng was going to ask for was only about ten thousand gold coins.

But this time, although Hana and the others were let go, Yi Cheng was not worried, he always had a premonition that Hana and him would meet again sooner or later.

In the past few days, besides making hurricanes, Yi Cheng is also busy building factories and railways.

With the addition of hundreds of meters of dwarves, Yi Cheng's construction army and blacksmith department have been greatly expanded. The dwarves are easy to feed, and they only need a glass of beer and food every day.

With the help of the dwarves, the pharmaceutical factory was quickly established. This is a large factory building covering an area of ​​more than 400 square meters. The round arch design allows it to prevent the invasion of snowstorms.

At the same time, the recruitment officially started. Only on the first day, almost two-thirds of the workers were recruited, and everyone was very enthusiastic about going to work in the pharmaceutical factory.

The pharmaceutical factory is divided into several areas for the production of different drugs. From production to packaging, Yicheng arranges everything carefully.

After the trial work on the first day, the production capacity test was not bad, and thousands of Billy Kings could be produced in one day, and there were not a few other drugs.

The output of the pharmaceutical factory in one day can be equal to the output of Gu Duo and the others in two or three weeks.

Gu Duo was appointed to be the director of the pharmaceutical factory, and the factory director was naturally Yi Cheng, while the two sisters, Andena, were in charge of quality control, when the factory started.

The two sisters, Andena, were busy outside, while Yi Cheng and Gu Duo were playing a shy game in the factory director's office on a high place.

Gu Duo puts on Yi Cheng's specially made smart suit, while Yi Cheng is frantically exporting to Gu Duo, the uniform is seductive, Yi Cheng has long wanted to come once.

Yi Xue who was in Yi Cheng's pocket peeked quietly, blushing.

The construction of the pharmaceutical factory not only stimulated the labor enthusiasm of women in New Sun City, but also absorbed many women from Rose Town.

Thanks to Toi Cheng, many of them were able to find something they could do in the pharmaceutical factory, saving them from the pain of starvation in winter.

And the men in Rose Town also have work to do. Under the command of the dwarves, the original backward production methods of the iron mine in Rose Town have been rectified and improved.

Advanced production methods require a lot of labor, but the output has also doubled many times.

Just one iron mine has to recruit hundreds of people, which is not counting the labor needed to lay the railway in the near future, and the number of loggers is not enough.

A large number of personnel are urgently needed for various positions. As long as they are willing to work, they will have food.In this winter, the number of people who died of starvation and freezing in the small town of Ross was particularly small.

Chapter 170 Siege

It's been a long time since I paid the rations, and Yi Cheng felt that his waist was a little soft after the work was done, and it can only be said that the orc's physical fitness is too strong.

If Sherlock was that muscular little mage, Yi Cheng could make her shout for mercy with just a flick of his finger.

After the long absence, Gu Duo said goodbye to Yi Cheng and went on to busy with her career. Her clan members all came to Xinri City.

This is a good thing. Being able to eat under her protection is much safer than fighting monsters for food in the mountains.

But most of the cattle orcs don't understand the human language, and Guduo recently called a lot of tribesmen who came here first to communicate with them.

In short, this is a very busy job. Yi Cheng did dozens of push-ups and sit-ups on the bed, and he couldn't do without exercise.

After a while, Yicheng finished exercising, put on his clothes, and took a drawing from the desk, which showed the territory of Yicheng and Rose Town.

Xinri City was originally just a little-known small village, with a small total area of ​​only a few tens of square kilometers, and the territory of other villages next to it.

The way this world is governed is similar to the Middle Ages in the West. Most of them are small countries with few people, and there are also kingdoms or empires with larger lands.

There are even more small villages like Yicheng, with a small population and low tax revenue. The small town of Ross is already the largest and relatively prosperous city in this area.

The larger cities in the north are almost all surrounded by seven fortresses, and Yicheng's territory is within the scope of the second fortress.

While Yi Cheng was thinking about how to develop next, someone knocked on the door of his office, "Come in." Yi Cheng shouted.

A sentry came in. Yi Cheng recognized him. He was a young man in his own village, named Andreev. He was very naughty since he was a child, and he didn't want to farm with his father.

When Yicheng formed the patrol team, he was the first to sign up for it. After going through a few battles, Andreev's face has faded and he became a little more stable.

"Yi... Your lord, people from the next village are making trouble at the gate of our factory." Andreev was at a loss for words. He wanted to call Yi Cheng's name, but stopped immediately.

Yi Cheng is no longer the boy who relied on his grandfather for food. Now Yi Cheng is the lord of everyone's gold, and he cannot be called by his name directly, otherwise he will be disrespected.

Yi Cheng smiled, he had already heard Andreev's slur just now, but Yi Cheng didn't try to warm people's hearts and told him not to care, and continued to call himself Yi Cheng.

As a leader, being close to the people is a means of winning people's hearts, but you must not be too close to the people. Retaining the necessary majesty is conducive to ruling.

"Take me there." Yi Cheng got up, put on his coat, and walked towards the factory gate under the leadership of Andreev.

Although the pharmaceutical factory is just a single large factory building, for the sake of safety, a two-meter-high wall has been built around it, and someone will patrol every half an hour.

Apparently it was a wise decision, as he held back some mobs that were now at the gate of the factory.

When Yi Cheng came to the door, there were already many people gathered in front of him, including old people, women and children, as well as strong and healthy men.

Most of them held sticks and other weapons in their hands, confronting the security guards aggressively, Yi Cheng was slightly angry, he had images of these people.

They are all from the village next door. This village has a bad name called "Bandit Village". It is said that their ancestors were a group of robbers in the forest.

After being rounded up by the forces of justice, they fled here and settled down. They are the descendants of these green forest thieves, and they have perfectly inherited the traditions of their ancestors.

That is to like to rob and play tricks.

The population of the bandit village is the largest among the nearby villages, second only to the town of Ross. Their village is also relatively prosperous, and it is the favorite place for lawbreakers.

Many lawbreakers from the Second Fortress gather here, some of them are notorious perverted murderers, and there are taboos such as Necromancers.

Where there are people, there will be gold coins, so the bandit village has been operating well, and most of the people living in it are people with backgrounds.

Among these people, even the original Bender didn't dare to offend, let alone a territory without the prosperity of Rose Town.

So these years, the bandit village has been very arrogant, and every year in winter, it will go to nearby villages to collect protection fees.

Obviously they came prepared this time, because their lord also appeared at the front of the line, a muscular man.

He was only wearing a beautiful tiger skin veterinarian in the winter, and he was holding a charming girl in his arms. When he saw Yi Cheng, he laughed wildly.

"I didn't expect you, a little bastard, to become the village head after the old man was buried." The man stared at Yi Cheng and said with disdain.

"Poisonous snake, don't you just squat in your territory and come here to spray dung?" Yi Cheng scolded unceremoniously.

"The mouth is sharp enough. I come here to collect money. The annual protection fee should be paid." The poisonous snake pinched the chest of the woman beside him, and greedily stared at the factory behind Yi Cheng.

According to the viper's gossip, behind this factory are the gang of rich pigs in Rose Town, and the original Bender was driven away by Yi Cheng.

The poisonous snake who got the news was very excited, because he had wanted his territory to replace the small town of Ross to become the largest city in this area all these years.

Originally, he thought that after losing Bender, the small town of Rose would soon decline, and then his territory would become a local snake, but who knew that Yi Cheng would come out halfway.

What's the benefit of being a leader like Ross Township?Not only can it attract the investment of many foreign businessmen, it will also gather a large number of mercenaries to come here.

The north is on the edge of the monster forest, and there are precious monsters in the mountains. As long as you can hunt one, you can live happily for a long time.

That's why a large number of mercenaries will go here. Originally, Rose Town relied on mercenaries to make a fortune in this way. Although many local mercenaries were captured by Yi Cheng, there were still many mercenaries from other places who kept going to this place.

When mercenaries gathered here, they would attract fur traders and material traders, build bars and casinos, and do some skin business.

These are all good projects for money, but now that Bender has collapsed, there is still no share for him, which makes Viper very angry.

And a big man from the second fortress gave him a trick, letting him occupy Yicheng's newly built pharmaceutical factory.

The poisonous snake was dazzled by the big man's lies, thinking that this pharmaceutical factory can produce tens of thousands of gold coins in profit every year.

So he gathered his own people and came here together, this is his usual method, there are old people with white hair in the team, and children of seven or eight years old.

Many kind-hearted people often don't have the heart to hurt them, but these people have been brainwashed by poisonous snakes, and they have been instilled with evil thoughts since childhood.

"Protection fee?" The corner of Yi Cheng's lips curled up, he forgot if the poisonous snake didn't mention it, maybe this is a good way to increase income.

It is possible to invite nearby villages to participate in production by joining in. They use people and land as capital to obtain wealth from Yicheng.

However, it is impossible for the poisonous snake in front of him to take out a copper coin from him.

"How much do you want?" Yi Cheng showed a hint of a smile, which was a mocking smile, but the poisonous snake misunderstood the meaning, thinking that Yi Cheng was trying to curry favor with him.

"Haha, I want 1 gold coins." The poisonous snake's eyes widened, and it viciously stuck out its tongue and licked its dry lips.

"1 gold coins? Did you drink too much today?" Yi Cheng laughed out loud. According to his memory, the money he paid in the past year was at most one or two gold coins.

Now it has risen ten thousand times all of a sudden, is he crazy about money?

"Didn't you just drive away that skinny monkey from Bender? His family's treasures are definitely not small. If you want to occupy his territory safely, then you must get my consent."

The poisonous snake greedily pointed at the factory behind Yi Cheng, "Or you can mortgage your factory to me." Said the poisonous snake seemed to think of something again.

"By the way, I remember you still have a black-skin elf? Give her to me to play with. I've long wanted to taste the taste of black skin."

The poisonous snake remembered what the lord said, there are beautiful dark elves in New Sun City, this is the ultimate beauty that many men dream of.

"Okay, come here, and I'll tell you where Black Skin is." Yi Cheng sneered and waved at the poisonous snake. The last one who had thoughts about Chloe had already been kicked out of the territory, his family was ruined, and that was Bender.

Chloe's status in Yi Cheng's heart has always been very high, but the poisonous snake dared to miss Chloe like this, and even called Chloe a "black skin" in slanderous language, Yi Cheng could not tolerate these things.

Yi Cheng's hand quietly reached into his chest, and there was a miniature pistol hidden inside, which Yi Cheng secretly made for his own safety, and each of Chloe and the others had one.
