Just thinking about this Bauhinia tree makes me furious.
Most of the people in Xinluo City now live in cement houses, but Yefeng still lives in a tent, which makes her feel very resentful.
However, the city lord's mansion has not yet been built, and Zijing has no choice but to make do for now.
"You all move in first to familiarize yourselves with the environment. I'll go find the city lord, Old Deng, and report the situation to him," Zijing said.
"Director, you can go about your business. Don't worry about us," said the man with pockmarks, rubbing his hands together.
The Bauhinia then turned into a shadow and disappeared directly from their sight.
Meanwhile, Yefeng was admiring the wave cannon on the steel warship.
The wave cannon placed in front of Ye Feng was not the original wave cannon, but a giant wave cannon created after Luo Qing's improvements!
The barrel of the giant wave cannon is half a meter thick, which is terrifying. The beam of light it generates when it fires is incredibly powerful. If it is continuously irradiated, it can even dig a tunnel in the mountain!
However, precisely because of this, the giant wave cannon consumes a very high amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth.
Although the giant wave cannon has a very complex spiritual network to gather and supply spiritual energy from heaven and earth, the spiritual network generates high heat when it is in operation, and the excessively high temperature will cause the materials that make up the spiritual network to be damaged.
Therefore, when using the giant wave cannon, it is necessary to use river water to cool it down.
However, the cooling system is not yet fully completed, so the giant wave cannon in front of Ye Feng is temporarily unusable and can only be used as a decoration.
"Compared to the giant wave cannon, the individual wave cannon is much more difficult."
"The giant wave cannon is just an enlarged version of the ordinary wave cannon, but the individual wave cannon is not as simple as a smaller version. Because shrinking the wave cannon will cause the formation inside to shrink as well, and shrinking it to a certain extent will greatly increase the difficulty of setting up the formation."
"To actually fit a complete spirit network into a palm-sized array base, honestly, it's still..."
Luo Qing rambled on, her expression one of utter helplessness.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "There's no rush for the individual wave cannon right now, but you can't slack off. You need to seize the time to study it. Don't fight alone if you encounter any difficulties. You can discuss it with Luo Lin and Li Xuanming."
"Understood, Ancestor." Luo Qing nodded vigorously.
A golden light suddenly flew in from the horizon, and Ye Feng grabbed it in his hand, immediately reading the information contained within it.
“Zijing is back, and she has brought all her former subordinates back to Xinluo City,” Yefeng said.
Luo Qing asked curiously, "Zijing's men are all thugs and petty hooligans. What do you need these people for, Ancestor?"
"Of course, we'll use them to build an intelligence network and enhance our intelligence gathering capabilities in Silla City."
Night Breeze paused, then continued, "Don't underestimate those thugs and ruffians. Although they're not respectable people, they can be very useful if used properly. Remember, everyone has their own talents, so no one is completely worthless, even the dead have value."
"I know, Ancestor, please don't preach, my head hurts so much," Luo Qing said, rubbing her head.
"You little rascal..."
Ye Feng chuckled and then said, "Then you stay here and keep busy, I'll be going now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Feng took a step forward and instantly teleported into his tent.
Not long after Ye Feng returned to his tent, Zi Jing burst in, shouting, "Old Deng, when will our city lord's mansion be finished? My underlings are living in better conditions than I am!"
"It'll be here soon," Ye Feng said with a smile.
“You told me last month that it would be soon, and it still is,” Zijing muttered.
“It can be completed within ten days,” Ye Feng said.
Zijing finally nodded in satisfaction.
Night Wind asked, "Have you arranged all your men?"
"Yes, it's all arranged," Zijing nodded.
"Give them a training session these next couple of days, then send them out to gather intelligence for us in various cities. They can also continue to recruit manpower while they're out there, and if they need funds, they can ask Rowling for them," Night Wind said.
"Will Rowling give it to me?" Zijing asked.
"Of course she'll give it to you. It's normal and reasonable funding. She won't hold you hostage," Ye Feng said earnestly.
Zijing laughed and said, "That's great! As long as the money is right, I guarantee my underlings will be more hardworking than the last!"
Meanwhile, in Honghu City.
A grand banquet is being held inside the city lord's mansion in Honghu City.
Those gathered here were the city lords of various cities, and Lin Feifei was among them.
However, Lin Feifei came to the banquet not because of an invitation from Li Honggang, the city lord of Honghu City, but because of Ye Feng's request.
Although Ye Feng only visited Nanhua City once, he has already reached an agreement with Lin Feifei that Xinluo City and Nanhua City are now allies.
So after receiving Li Honggang's invitation, Lin Feifei sent a message to Ye Feng to ask for his opinion.
With Ye Feng's permission, Lin Feifei finally arrived in Nanhua City to attend the banquet.
What she didn't expect was that the banquet wasn't just one event, but a daily event.
Therefore, she had been staying in Honghu City for many days, but she was not in a hurry.
With that steward and guard managing things in Nanhua City, there wouldn't be any problems in the short term, even if she wasn't there.
At this moment, Li Honggang, holding a wine glass, said with a smile, "Thank you all for attending the banquet I am hosting. I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to you all."
"You're too kind, City Lord!"
"Lord Li, you've given us face by inviting us here, so of course we'll come and support you."
“Lord Li, please speak frankly. We are all on the same side, there’s no need to be so formal.”
The city lords present were all fawning over him from below the stage.
Li Honggang then said, "As everyone knows, the first King of Nanling broke through the barrier seven hundred years ago and even built a new city in the Death Mountains, named Silla City."
"The existence of Silla Castle has seriously affected the safety of our various cities, and this is not an exaggeration. You may not have noticed, but the number of refugees in your cities is increasing, and all of them are heading towards Silla Castle!"
"In just two or three months, Silla City has already grown to tens of thousands of people by gathering refugees from our city. If this continues, Silla City will probably become a behemoth, and then we won't have the strength to resist!"
Li Honggang's words immediately aroused a sense of crisis among all the city lords present.
One of them immediately asked, "So, Lord Li, what you mean is..."
