Deng Yushan quickly nodded in agreement, saying that he would definitely handle the matter as required.
Then, Shen Yong pointed to the distance outside the window and continued,
"There's a lot of open space around Qianhuang City, so we can expand the city directly. Expand ten miles toward the outside of Bailong City, and another twenty miles toward the Fire Phoenix Nation."
"Qianhuang City is my imperial city, it must be large and magnificent."
After saying these words, Shen Yong narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had already seen the magnificent sight of the expanded Qianhuang City.
The two neighboring cities of Fire Phoenix Kingdom and Great Heavenly Dynasty are separated by 60 miles, so at least half of them belong to Great Heavenly Dynasty. He occupies a 20-mile area, and Fire Phoenix Kingdom can't say anything about it.
Deng Yushan looked at Chen Yong in shock, lowered his eyelids and looked at the drawings, his heartbeat gradually accelerating.
Oh my god.
According to King Qianhuang's expansion method, Qianhuang City will be much larger than the capital.
The key is that this project is really too big, and it will take a long time just to get the materials.
Thinking of the material problem, Deng Yushan raised his eyelids and looked at Shen Yong with trembling eyes.
"King Qianhuang, the materials needed to expand Qianhuang City..."
The city walls are all made of rammed earth, but if such a large area is expanded with rammed earth, the time it will take is difficult to estimate.
Although Qianhuang City now has nearly 200,000 new and old soldiers, half of them are civilians who have not received formal training and are definitely not qualified to go to the battlefield.
Moreover, Qianhuang City will be expanded 20 miles towards the Fire Phoenix Country, which will require 50,000 soldiers to guard it.
Otherwise, if the Fire Phoenix Kingdom launches a surprise attack, all our efforts will be in vain.
The surrounding expansion also requires soldiers to maintain order, which means that out of 100,000 soldiers, only 20,000 can rotate to participate in the expansion.
The rest were the civilians, new recruits, and the elderly, weak, women and children in the city who participated in the expansion.
If the earth is rammed, the expansion time will be extended.
Chen Yong frowned, "Use blue bricks to cover the rammed earth? This way the city wall will be stronger."
"The wall is one meter thick. The stronger it is, the better."
When Deng Yushan heard this, his eyes lit up.
Not using rammed earth all the time? That’s fine, it can save a lot of time.
"Did the gods give us the materials...?"
Deng Yushan was very excited when he thought about using the materials given by the gods to expand the city wall.
The things given by the gods are all good things. The rice, flour, grain and oil are of the quality that the nobles in the capital eat.
The whole grains are much better than the whole grains mixed with sand that they usually eat.
Chen Yong glanced at Deng Yushan calmly.
"Of course it was a gift from the gods, otherwise where would we get so many bluestone bricks?"
"Once the blueprints are drawn and all personnel are in place, we will go directly to the construction site and ask the gods for materials."
This saves everyone from carrying things back and forth and saves a lot of time.
"Yes, yes..." Deng Yushan was so excited that his lips could not move. "I will immediately ask someone to modify the blueprint."
"Go!" Chen Yong looked at Deng Yushan's impatient look and waved his hand with a smile.
After watching Deng Yushan hurriedly run out, Shen Yong immediately opened the takeaway mall and began to select ingredients.
A search for the materials and tools needed to build the city wall will bring up several pages.
The basic tools include rammer, wall board, rafter, plug pole, column rammer, wooden board, rafter, jamb, shoulder pole, straw rope, wicker basket, shovel...
Chen Yong added all the tools he might need to the shopping cart, 10,000 sets of each tool.
He also added materials such as clay, loess, lime, blue bricks and stones, wood, and plaster to the shopping cart.
30,000 tons of each material and 200 million bluestone bricks are the materials needed for a city wall.
He went to the four places where the city walls were being built, east, west, south and north, and placed so much material on each side.
It’s okay to have too much material, as it can be used to build houses where the city wall is being expanded. But if there is too little, it will be very troublesome.
Chen Yong searched and searched, and it took him an hour to find all the necessary materials.
The materials and tools needed for a city wall cost a total of 550 million yuan, and the store owner even took the initiative to round off the cost.
The expansion of the city walls, the expansion of the palace, and all the money for road construction will cost about 4 billion.
After Chen Yong finished the calculation, he took a breath. This money was really hard to spend.
This does not include the cost of labor. He will have to provide food for the people in the entire city for as long as the construction takes.
The average daily food cost per person is 5 yuan. There are more than 500,000 people in the city, excluding the elderly who cannot move and the young who cannot walk. At least 450,000 people are involved in the construction, and the daily food cost is 900,000 yuan.
If it takes one month to build, that would be around 3 million.
Compared with the 4 billion yuan spent on expansion materials, Chen Yong actually felt that 3 million yuan a month was not too much.
.......
“Who are you!?”
Qian Yinbao frowned and looked at the three people who suddenly appeared, feeling very nervous.
They were about to see the place where the monsters ascended after climbing half the mountain, but unexpectedly three people suddenly jumped out from behind them.
His eyes fell on the swords on the waists of the three men. It was obvious that these three men were martial artists with good martial arts skills.
Although they looked quite embarrassed, their aura made it clear that they were not ordinary people.
Of course, Qian Yinbao himself was not in a much better situation. Whoever went into the mountains would be in a mess.
Tianhong glanced at the guards who were blocking Qian Yinbao with knives.
Although Qian Yinbao looked like a homeless person now, he still recognized him at a glance.
As the top seed player who is the spy of Emperor Tianwu, how could he not have this insight?
At this time, Qian Yinbao appeared in the mountains, and he must have been ordered to take the gold and silver from the mine.
Tianhong looked up at the top of the mountain, then glanced at Qian Yinbao and his group, feeling a little conflicted.
He still doesn't know whether there are any treasures on the mountain top where the divine object ascended.
If he killed Qian Yinbao and the others but still found no treasure on the top of the mountain, he would have to get rid of Tian Liu and Tian Qi who followed him as well.
He only believed that the dead would not betray him.
Tianhong thought about it and immediately gave up the decision to kill Qian Yinbao and his group.
"Master Qian, your status is not enough to question my whereabouts."
"We are all here on the orders of the Emperor, so just do your own thing."
Tianhong's cold eyes passed across Qian Yinbao's face.
Even if there are treasures on the top of the mountain, these people are not as fast as him, so there is no need to be afraid of them.
If there really were some incredible treasures, he would still have time to kill these people.
