"Once the subsidies are calculated, go directly to the accounting office to get the money and it will be distributed tomorrow."
Chen Yong glanced at the subsidy account and put it aside.
"Yes." Deng Yushan put down the empty teacup and responded.
When he returned to the prefectural yamen, he met the excited Mr. Li and already knew that the accounting office had enough money.
It has to be King Qianhuang, who has taken every aspect into consideration.
They just need to contribute their manpower and help with management, and they don't have to worry about whether they have money or not.
Then, Shen Yong picked up the size data and took a look.
The size data was written for more than ten pages, which made Shen Yong's head hurt.
It takes a long time to report these sizes to the merchant.
"The glass will be sent to the palace tomorrow afternoon. Just clear out a room for it."
"Okay, I'll go clear the room now." Deng Yushan nodded repeatedly, wishing he could see the colored glaze right away.
Chen Yong frowned and looked at the dark sky outside.
"There's no need to be so anxious. Let's go tomorrow."
These people are not tired, but he is tired.
When Deng Yushan heard this, he immediately looked at Shen Yong with emotion, “Thank you, King Qianhuang, for your consideration.”
"Go back and rest."
Shen Yong waved his hand and sent Deng Yushan away.
He took the stacks of sizes and sent them one by one to the merchants to customize the glass.
"Seventh Brother, you must be hungry. Eat some breakfast and rest. We'll see tomorrow."
Old Madam Shen walked into the study carrying a food box, and looked at Shen Yong who was still busy sitting behind the desk, her eyes full of heartache.
Everyone in the city has been very busy recently, and she hasn't seen Lao Qi for several days.
She was both relieved and distressed to see that Old Seven, who had been lazy for so many years, suddenly became so hardworking.
"Mother." Shen Yong looked up and saw Old Madam Shen, pursed his lips and smiled.
"I'm just a little hungry."
Shen Yong put down the size chart in his hand, stood up and walked towards the table.
Mrs. Shen placed the food in the lunch box on the table.
“Eat it while it’s hot. No matter how busy you are, don’t forget to eat.”
"I've already told Aunt Zhang in the kitchen that you should eat on time tomorrow before going out to work."
She had asked everyone in the mansion, and found out that the seventh brother had not eaten in the mansion that day.
If this goes on, my body won’t be able to bear it.
Shen Yong sat at the table with a smile on his face and took the chopsticks handed to him by Old Lady Shen.
"Don't worry, Mom, I also eat outside."
How could he starve himself? There were so many foods cooked by the imperial kitchen in the space. When he was hungry, he could just take some out and stuff it into his mouth. It tasted very good.
Old Madam Shen looked at Shen Yong with loving eyes as he ate with big mouthfuls of food.
"It will be fine after this busy period. Now the construction of the city wall is almost half completed. Everyone's division of labor and cooperation are very good, and the speed will only get faster and faster."
As she spoke, Madam Shen frowned slightly.
"However, we are making such a big noise here that I am afraid it will soon reach the ears of Emperor Tianwu."
"No matter how incompetent Emperor Tianwu is, the Great Celestial Empire has been established for so many years, and he can still mobilize a million-strong army."
"When the time comes, I'm afraid there will be a tough battle to fight."
She was not afraid, as Qianhuang City had more than 400,000 soldiers, both new and old.
But more than half of them are newly recruited soldiers.
These people did not undergo any training as new recruits, but went straight to participate in building the city wall.
If Emperor Tianwu sent troops to attack, these new recruits would probably not even be able to lift a sword.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen added,
"The soldiers don't have enough weapons, so they still need a knife for each of them."
"Even if the blacksmith shop works day and night, I'm afraid they won't be able to finish it in time."
Shen Yong swallowed the food in his mouth, looked up and smiled faintly at Madam Shen.
"Mother, Qianhuang City is so far away from the capital. It will take at least two months for Emperor Tianwu to send troops to attack."
"Besides, Emperor Tianwu wouldn't send out a million troops just to attack Qianhuang City. He wouldn't be afraid of a fire in his backyard."
The great Celestial Empire is surrounded by three neighboring countries and one sea.
How could Emperor Tianwu dare to withdraw all the troops from the border?
He now only occupies Qianhuang City, which is probably a small matter in the eyes of Emperor Tianwu and not worth worrying about.
At most, send a general with 50,000 soldiers to scare him.
"As for weapons, don't worry about it, I have plenty."
"Tomorrow I'll go to the barracks armory and restock all the weapons there."
"It just so happens that we need to replace all the crossbows with the kind used by the Golden Armor Army."
Madam Shen looked at Shen Yong in shock.
"That repeating crossbow—was it hard to get?!"
"Such a sophisticated crossbow is even better than the royal crossbow. If the entire army is equipped with this weapon, no matter how many people Emperor Tianwu sends, we will not be afraid."
Crossbowmen stood on the city wall which was more than three meters high. The entire city wall was full of crossbowmen. It was simply a powerful killing weapon in the world.
No matter how many people Emperor Tianwu sends, it will be in vain.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen couldn't help but get excited.
"Old Seven was really thoughtful, building the entire Qianhuang City wall so wide."
"The entire city wall can be guarded by soldiers. It will really protect Qianhuang City like an iron barrel."
In the past, only the north and south gate towers of the city wall could accommodate soldiers.
After Lao Qi expanded the city wall, soldiers could be stationed all around the city, and no one could find a gap to launch a sneak attack.
Chen Yong gulped down two mouthfuls of the meat soup and smiled.
"That's right. Qianhuang City will be the imperial capital of our Shen family from now on. It must be easy to defend and difficult to attack."
The main purpose is to protect the women of the Shen family.
Shen Yong glanced at Madam Shen’s tired face and frowned slightly.
