Thinking of what Deng Yushan had told him, Xu Kailiang stopped in his tracks.
Forget it, it’s more important to handle the task at hand well. Colored glass is a big deal.
Over there, Deng Yushan jogged over to catch up with Chen Yong, panting and pointing at the surrounding area.
"There are more residents in the south area, more than 50 households, and fewer in the north area, only about 30 households."
"All the houses here have been demolished..."
“…”
Shen Yong looked around, nodded as he walked, and stopped when he reached the center of the open space.
"Evacuate everyone in this area."
Deng Yushan's chattering mouth suddenly stopped.
He looked around and immediately waved to the yamen runners behind him.
"Go quickly and get everyone out of here."
The yamen runners responded and immediately went to evacuate the people who were sorting out the debris in the open space.
After a moment, there was no one anywhere Chen Yong could see.
Shen Yong cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "Begin to seek immortality."
Deng Yushan and Ji Guangda stared at each other with wide eyes, then bent their knees and knelt down at the same time.
The yamen runners and soldiers following behind them all knelt down as well.
After Chen Yong heard everyone kneel down, he opened his mouth again and began his most concise and original words of seeking immortality.
"Please ask the gods to grant us the tools and materials to build the palace..."
When everyone heard this, they kowtowed and shouted, "Please ask the gods to give us tools and materials to build the palace."
Chen Yong bought another batch of materials based on the amount needed to build a city wall.
It doesn’t matter if you buy too much materials. There are plenty of materials needed for the expansion of the city.
【Ding, consumption RMB, account balance RMB...】
As soon as the payment information is released, all the materials will be in place in an instant.
The people who were kowtowing and praying to the gods were suddenly speechless.
Everyone stared at the materials piled up in the open space with wide eyes.
After a long while, Deng Yushan finally spoke with a trembling voice.
"Thank you, gods, thank you King Qianhuang, long live King Qianhuang..."
Everyone came to their senses and knelt down one after another. The workers who were standing on the edge after evacuation also knelt down and thanked at the top of their lungs.
Deng Yushan was so excited that he looked at Chen Yong as if he had seen a real god.
In his heart, Shen Yong was no different from a god.
If you want rain, you get rain; if you want food, you get food; if you want things, you get things. If this isn't something you're like, then what is?
He had never seen a god protecting someone alone like this.
No, it should be said that he has never seen the appearance of gods.
Over the years, droughts, floods and other natural disasters have occurred frequently in our great country. People have gone to temples to pray to gods and Buddhas, and their knees have almost broken, but no gods have appeared.
Only when Chen Yong wants something, the gods will appear immediately, without even taking a cup of tea.
Chen Yong is the god of the people.
Ji Guangda shouted along and looked at the materials and tools excitedly.
Those sharp shovels can be used as mirrors. They are really great things.
"No rushing at night, just go to and from work on time."
Chen Yong looked at Deng Yushan and said something, then turned to look at Ji Guangda.
"Let's go and see where it's more convenient to put the materials for road construction."
"Yes..." Deng Yushan hurriedly responded when he heard that Shen Yong was leaving, and kowtowed with everyone.
"Farewell, King Qianhuang..."
"Okay, okay." Ji Guangda stood up quickly, grinning and followed Shen Yong.
"I've already found a place to store the materials. The parade ground is perfect."
"The area near the parade ground exit is quite bumpy and not very convenient."
"Once the city wall is built, the soldiers will begin training, so I have discussed with the people in the Ministry of Works and decided to start from here..."
Ji Guangda took out the blueprint as he spoke, pointing to the circled area and showing it to Shen Yong...
Deng Yushan watched Shen Yong walk away with excitement in his eyes, then patted his butt and stood up.
He turned his head to look at the piles of materials and tools, and his old face smiled like a chrysanthemum.
"Quick, call everyone over, stop picking up stones, and start working immediately."
Once the palace is built, there will be plenty of time to sort out the miscellaneous things, so it is more important to speed up the work now.
Didn’t you hear what King Qianhuang said? You are not allowed to work at night because the visibility is poor at night and it is easy to make mistakes.
You have to make good use of the daytime time to work.
Soon, all the workers working within the expansion area on the three sides of the palace gathered around the materials.
Everyone lined up and came forward to receive their tools according to the tasks that had been assigned to them.
The brick movers had already started transporting bricks one by one on carts.
The workers in the entire palace were busy...
......
"King Qianhuang, be careful, there are a lot of mud pits here."
Ji Guangda whispered a reminder.
The road surface on this side of the parade ground wasn't that bad originally.
That was because King Qianhuang had asked for water to be sprinkled on the parade ground, and hundreds of thousands of people surrounded the parade ground.
The water made the ground muddy, and the people stepped on it and pushed it, making the ground unrecognizable.
This was the time he had rested with the workers.
When I didn't rest, the deep pit was above my ankles.
Chen Yong looked at the ground with big holes inside small holes, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
Next time you add water, pour it directly into the well water.
The well in the prefectural government office is connected to most of the rivers and ditches in the city. Once it is filled, the water will naturally flow throughout the city.
He is not short of money, so he can just add as much water as he wants.
"This stretch of road connected to the street is all paved with flagstones."
"And all the roads in the city have been replaced with cobblestones."
Chen Yong glanced at the parade ground. It was not possible to pave stone slabs there, so they had to make a lawn.
"Cobbled pavement!?" Ji Guangda's eyes widened in shock. "Are all the roads in the city paved?"
Oh my god!!!
He had only seen roads paved with flagstones in the capital.
The capital city was the power center of the great Celestial Empire. When a brick was thrown down, those who fell were either officials or wealthy businessmen, some of whom had plenty of money to pave such a good road.
The military advisor kept complaining that the Great Celestial Empire only looked prosperous on the surface, but was already completely rotten on the inside.
The imperial court was corrupt and incompetent, corrupt officials were numerous, and coupled with frequent natural disasters, the people had long been suffering.
Otherwise, it would not have been so easy for King Qianhuang to take over Qianhuang City.
It just happened that the time, place, and people were all on King Qianhuang's side, and everyone in Qianhuang City just went with the flow.
If you don't follow King Qianhuang, you will die of thirst and hunger.
The court's money is only used for the nobles in the capital, and it doesn't care about these people on the border.
If the imperial court had not sent supplies to Qianhuang City for several months, how could the soldiers be in such a miserable state?
During this period, they also had to fight against the harassment from the Fire Phoenix Country, and lost many soldiers.
Therefore, they were forced by the imperial court to follow King Qianhuang in rebellion.
