Let Governor Liu do some work first and plunder the food from the wealthy merchants and powerful families in Bailong City, which will be enough to feed the people of Bailong City for a while.
After his military camp is expanded, he will go to Bailong City to recruit new soldiers.
When the new recruits receive their salaries, the people's lives will naturally be better.
Thinking of this, Shen Yong took out a drawing from the drawer.
"The design of the training ground expansion plan is very good. We can start work right away."
"This is a map of the military barracks housing renovation. Come and take a look."
Shen Yong moved the blueprint of the training ground on the table aside and placed the blueprint of the military camp renovation and expansion on the table.
Magistrate Deng raised his eyebrows and walked quickly to the table.
Shen Yong pointed to the simplified drawing and said,
"Two training grounds, east and west, will be built within the 20-li expansion area of the North City Gate."
"Both the east and west city walls have been extended by more than 30 miles. The areas on both sides are even larger than the training grounds."
"Divide the east and west sides into two, build houses on one half and move all the people there to live there, and build the other half to serve as a military camp."
"In the 30-li area expanded by the South City Gate, several workshops will be built to provide jobs for women..."
Governor Deng's brows trembled as he listened to Shen Yong's plan.
We have just finished building the city wall and are now planning the entire city. This is truly a huge project.
If things continue like this, the people of Qianhuang City will have no worries about having no work by the end of the year.
This is good, as it happened to be a year of famine and the fields had no harvest, so as long as there was work to do, there would be food and drink.
The food provided by King Qianhuang is extremely good, and the people are happy to work.
Magistrate Deng looked at the blueprint, frowning and thinking.
He understood everything about building military camps and training grounds.
But this workshop...
"I wonder which workshops the prince plans to open?"
There are so many workshops that can be built within this 30-mile radius.
The key is whether these workshops can be profitable after they are built.
After all, there are many workshops of various kinds in Qianhuang City, and many of the products made by the workshops are piled up in warehouses, making them difficult to sell.
Shen Yong nodded at the blueprint and said, "Open a printing workshop, a papermaking workshop, a textile workshop, and a winemaking workshop."
“Printing and papermaking workshops began in the east, and textile and winemaking workshops opened in the west.”
"The workshop should include accommodation, a canteen, a warehouse, etc. Ask the Ministry of Industry to design it carefully."
Chen Yong glanced at the frown on the magistrate Deng's face, pursed his lips and smiled.
"First, ask the Ministry of Industry to produce the reconstruction blueprints according to the plan."
There are still many places that need to be renovated, let's do them one by one.
Even if he told them all at once, he still wouldn't be able to find enough people to build it.
However, these four workshops must be opened, as they can solve the employment problem of soldiers' families and make a lot of money.
He only needs to buy some materials from the takeaway mall and the factories everywhere can start production.
Once the products produced by paper mills and printing factories are released, the price will definitely not be low.
When Magistrate Deng heard that so many things needed to be rebuilt, he was also overwhelmed.
These expanded areas more or less have one or two villages.
All these people need to be resettled, and this is a problem.
Prefect Deng walked out of the prefectural office in a daze, taking the blueprints with him, one step at a time, and immediately summoned the people from the Ministry of Works.
The Ministry of Industry, which had just taken a breath, became excited again and started drawing the design drawings.
.......
White Dragon City, South Gate...
“Open the city gate!!!”
A group of officials riding on tall horses shouted at the city gate.
Ji Yongjia, who had been guarding the city gate for so long, finally heard the loud knock on the door, and his eyes lit up.
“Who is it?!”
Ji Yongjia shouted in a deep voice towards the bottom of the city gate tower.
More than thirty officials on horseback surrounded a carriage.
Could these people be the imperial envoys that Magistrate Liu asked him to pay attention to?
Judging from the situation, it does look like an imperial envoy is traveling, but I don't know which imperial envoy Emperor Tianwu sent to deal with Chen Yong.
However, no matter who comes, it will be of no use.
What's more, Emperor Tianwu was so arrogant that he sent such a small number of people to accompany the imperial envoy, which was no different from sending them to their death.
As soon as Ji Yongjia finished speaking, the curtain of the carriage slowly opened.
The imperial envoy came out of the carriage in his official uniform, stood on it, looked up at the city gate tower, took out the gold medal in his arms and showed it to the emperor.
At this time, the official shouted, "The imperial envoy has arrived, why don't you open the city gate quickly?"
"It turns out to be the Imperial Envoy. Open the city gate quickly."
When Ji Yongjia saw the person holding the gold medal, his eyebrows raised slightly.
It's really interesting that Emperor Tianwu actually sent Qu Yutang.
He wanted to see how Qu Yutang would use his eloquent tongue to convince Shen Yong.
With a shrill "creak", the city gate slowly opened.
When Qu Yutang saw the city gate open, he waved his hand and returned to the carriage.
The carriage creaked as it carried Qu Yutang towards Bailong City.
After watching the carriage enter the city, Ji Yongjia immediately turned on the walkie-talkie.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Envoy Qu Yutang has entered Bailong City."
Shen Yong's calm voice came, "Just don't worry."
Over there, Qi Zhiyong was discussing the pricing of refined salt with Prefect Liu, when suddenly the intercom on his chest came with the report from Ji Yongjia and King Qianhuang.
Qi Zhiyong was so frightened that his pupils trembled and he immediately covered his chest with his hands.
Oh no, is this considered eavesdropping on the prince's secret?
Governor Liu was also startled by the sudden sound.
"The Imperial Envoy is here!? This..."
"What should I do?"
Qi Zhiyong frowned and looked at Prefect Liu, "Didn't the prince say that we can just let them go?"
"Then..." Prefect Liu frowned, "If the imperial envoy asks about the situation in Qianhuang City, how should I answer?"
Bailong City is so close to Qianhuang City that it is impossible for the imperial envoy to pass by without asking him.
If the imperial envoy discovered his relationship with Qianhuang City, he would not be the first to be punished, right?
He had just sold two thousand kilograms of refined salt, and there were still eight thousand kilograms left to sell.
What if the imperial envoy finds out?
Magistrate Liu couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
The main thing is that he was the one who sent the letter to the capital, so the imperial envoy must be looking for him.
As soon as Prefect Liu finished speaking, Shen Yong's voice came from Qi Zhiyong's intercom.
"I don't know anything about this. Send them directly to Qianhuang City."
"......" Prefect Liu's pupils trembled, and he glanced cautiously at Qi Zhiyong's chest, "Yes, I obey your command."
He felt relieved after hearing King Qianhuang's words. He didn't know much about Qianhuang City in the first place.
Then just say you know nothing about anything.
