"Someone, summon Fei Zhong!"

Di Xin stood for a moment and withdrew his gaze, and immediately issued the order.

Immediately, an attendant officer received the order.

About half an hour later, Fei Zhong arrived in a hurry.

"Meet the King!"

Fei Zhong bowed respectfully, he also knew about the succession of the Marquis of Qingzhou, and thought that the king had summoned him to ask for his opinion, and he had already made a draft in his heart.

"How's the preparation for the construction of Lutai?"

Fei Zhong didn't expect that Di Xin didn't mention the matter of Qingzhou, but asked about Lutai.

Lutai is the place where Emperor Xin is ready to hoard grain and grass resources, and if there is something going on in the Quartet in the future, the large amount of grain and grass accumulated by Lutai can support the continuous combat of the army.

Fei Zhong's heart was full of electric thoughts, and he immediately replied: "Back to the king, the land needed for Lutai has been prepared, and there is still a shortage of a large number of craftsmen Ding Zhuang and materials for building Lutai...... If everything is ready, it will take twenty years to build Lutai!"

As a place to hoard a large amount of materials of the Great Shang Dynasty, Lutai is naturally not so easy to build.

Even with the foundation of the Great Shang Dynasty, it will not be completed for a while.

Of course, the main reason is that the design of Lutai is too big, and it is based on the four elephants, showing three lights and extending the leylines, in addition to requiring a large number of Ding Zhuang slaves to build, many qi refiners also need to participate in it.

After it was completed, Lutai was even more magnificent than the caves of some immortals.

"Twenty years!"

Di Xin frowned slightly.

Seeing this, the nine-tailed fox asked Fei Zhong, "Twenty years is a bit too long, Doctor Fei, how many craftsmen have you prepared?"

Fei Zhong said: "The minister levied one million Ding Zhuang and 100,000 craftsmen...... This has already drained all of Chaoge's idle manpower!"

"Already all drawn?"

The nine-tailed fox was a little surprised, and asked, "I remember that there are tens of millions of Dingkou near Chaoge, and there are nearly 10 million slaves, how can you reach the limit after requisitioning one million Dingzhuang?"

"This ......"

Fei Zhong glanced at Di Xin, gritted his teeth secretly, and said: "The king's previous innovation strategy promoted a large number of slaves near Chaoge to be nationals, and the rest of the slaves were serfs and could not be transferred!"

"As for the tens of millions of Dingkou of Chaoge, they are all Chinese people with free bodies, and if they are recruited, the cost will be too great!"

According to Fei Zhong.

Originally, a large number of slaves near Chaoge had changed their identities because of Di Xin's policy, and if they wanted to be recruited, they had to consume a lot of money and food. No longer the slaves that were driven by it before.

"The King?"

The nine-tailed fox didn't seem to think of this, and a pair of wonderful eyes looked towards Di Xin with a little worry.

Di Xin patted the arm of the nine-tailed fox and said with a faint smile: "These slaves are orphaned, and they must be grateful to Lonely, Fei Zhong, pass on Gu's edict, and levy another five million Ding Zhuang from the countrymen!"

"Don't ask about the process, just ask about the result, Lutai, you must finish it as soon as possible! The sooner the better!"

Fei Zhong's complexion changed slightly.

He subconsciously wanted to say something, but as soon as he looked up, he saw Di Xin's arrogant and conceited look, and what he wanted to say immediately swallowed back into his stomach.

The slaves who have become countrymen are re-requisitioned to do hard labor......

Fei Zhong could imagine that these people must be full of complaints about the king's edict, although he had not heard of the phrase Shengmi endou Mi hatred, but this truth was still understood.

The king thought that the slaves would be grateful to him for his previous edicts, and he was a little self-righteous. And, according to what Di Xin just said, the sooner Lutai is built, the better......

It is conceivable that the overseer who supervised the construction of Lutai will inevitably squeeze down fiercely for this order.

When the time comes, the five million Ding Zhuang don't know how much they will survive.

But Fei Zhong thought about it.

Anyway, Ding Zhuang, who is only five million, used to be a slave, even if he dies of exhaustion, it will have no effect on the big merchants. Chaoge can be a lot more stable without these people.

"The king's order, the minister should obey it, but the king knows the minister's ability, and it is okay to come up with ideas, and supervise such a major event as Lutai...... I'm afraid it's a lack of ability!"

Supervising the construction of Lutai, it is his duty to do well, and if he does not do well, he will face the wrath of Di Xin.

Fei Zhong understood this in his heart, so he naturally would not take this hot potato.

"Hmm...... That's it, since you say you can't do it yourself, then recommend a minister to be in charge!"

Di Xin's mind was sharp, and as soon as his heart turned, he understood what Fei Zhong was thinking.

He is all-rounder, extremely intelligent, and good at everything, but the biggest flaw is that his personality is too rigid.

And from birth, he was high above and did not understand the thoughts of the slaves and the people at the bottom.

However, he has a very good grasp of the thoughts of the ministers of the court.

But anything he wants to know, he can figure it out quickly.

Fei Zhong also knew this, and he dared to bargain with Di Xin, also relying on his previous feelings.

"Uncle Huang is more than dry, highly respected, and sub-prime minister, in charge of the world's money and grain, and it is the most suitable to supervise the construction of Lutai!"

Fei Zhong faintly guessed Di Xin's mind and said without hesitation.

"It's a bit inappropriate to let the imperial uncle supervise the construction of Lutai, with the character of the imperial uncle, I'm afraid he won't agree!"

Dixin shook his head.

Fei Zhong hurriedly said: "The king can let the imperial uncle be named, as for the specific supervision matters...... The minister heard that Uncle Huang had recently recruited a wizard, and the specific matters of supervision could be handled by this wizard!"

"Yaxiang's eyesight is outstanding, and the strange people he values must be extraordinary, so that Yaxiang has the overall situation, and there are capable people to do things, and it is easy to build Lutai!"

Hear this.

Di Xin nodded slightly, Fei Zhong said well.

"Well, this matter is decided by itself, you go down first!"

Fei Zhong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retired.

The Qishi in Fei Zhong's mouth was talking to Bigan in the Yaxiang Mansion at this time.

This person has flying hair, fairy wind bones, and his eyes are flashing with divine light, it is Jiang Shang Jiang Ziya.

After being recommended by Bigan, he was already Chaoge's doctor at this time.

The official rank of the Great Shang is divided into two types: internal and external, and externally it is the princes of the four directions.

The local system of Dashang is divided into six levels: secretary and doctor. Jiang Ziya's position as a doctor is the lowest rank of courtiers.

However, Jiang Ziya did not give in to his official position.

In front of Abikan, he was still calm and calm, and he talked and laughed freely with Bigan.

At this time, a subordinate sent a message.

Bigan, who was talking and laughing, changed his complexion, and the smile on his face disappeared, and he was even a little bitter.

"Prime Minister?"

Jiang Ziya showed an inquiring look.

Bigan sighed and said, "I got the news that the king intends to requisition another five million Ding Zhuang and order me to supervise the construction of Lutai, and Fei Zhong also recommended you to be responsible for supervising the work......

Jiang Ziya looked stunned and said: "The construction of Lutai is a major event, and it is also the duty of the king to let the prime minister be responsible, but it is only necessary to requisition five million Ding Zhuang?"
