Chapter 32: Building the Castle

When Ye Chen got up, it was already dawn, and seeing that Xiao Nizi was already asleep, Ye Chen helped her cover the quilt and went out.

Along the way, the corpses had been disposed of, but the blood stains on the ground were still there, and the bloodstains seemed to tell the cruelty of last night.

Ye Chen stepped up and walked to Old Man Ye's.

"Wu Xian, what's wrong with my grandfather."

Ye Chen walked halfway and saw Wu Xianzheng commanding his subordinates to clean up the ruins, three courtyards were completely burned down last night, and some courtyards were burned down.

"The old man didn't sleep last night, probably because he was frightened, and he fell asleep at dawn in the morning."

Wu Xian's face was tired, he hadn't slept all night, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"Well, I'll take a look, you arrange this place, and then go get some sleep, there are still many things to do in the future, but you can't be tired."

Ye Chen's words moved Wu Xian very much, his eyes were full of tears, and he suddenly felt tired and full of energy.

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he left, he wanted to look around to see what had happened to the Ye family.

After walking around, although the Ye family burned down a lot of houses and suffered a lot of losses, the biggest loss was that too many people died, and more than 400 people died in the family's guards.

If it weren't for the thieves who came in and patronized the robbery, I'm afraid there would have been more casualties. Ye Chen faced the cruelty of this era for the first time, and used to talk about this cannibalistic society in TV novels, but he didn't feel much of it.

Now, Ye Chen really, with blood to feel this era, he found that life is so fragile, and the reality is so cruel.

The enemy will not be merciful to you, will not tell you about human nature, once you are not strong, you will be slaughtered, there is no chance to regret it, and you will never be allowed to come.

Ye Chen's heart hardened, hardened to this era and this society. He had to clench the blade in his hand and guard everything he wanted to protect.

Ye Chen took a few people out, he wanted to find helpers, the Ye family's guards had died too much, and many of the remaining people were also injured, to rebuild the Ye family as soon as possible, more people had to be called to help.

The person Ye Chen is looking for is Li Qing, now he is in charge of building the workshop, he is doing a good job, Ye Chen intends to absorb him to his side and become the core figure of the Ye family's management.

After Ye Chen found him, Li Qing didn't say a word, and quickly summoned more than three hundred young men to help clean up the ruins. With the help of a large number of people, the speed is much faster.

Although the Ye family is a family of businessmen with a low social status, its influence is very high, especially after the restaurant launched stir-fried vegetables and Du Kang wine.

Some business families came to visit one after another, bringing gifts, saying that they were visiting to see if the Ye family could give them Du Kang wine on time, after all, they spent a lot of money on agency fees alone.

Old Man Ye was frightened and didn't come forward, so Ye Chen came forward to receive him, saying that the wine-making workshop was not affected and would deliver the goods on time, and those people left after confirming this, after all, the Ye family was not suitable for entertaining guests at this time.

I was busy receiving visitors all day, some of them were for a familiar face, some were for Du Kang wine, and some had other purposes, but no matter what, they were all here to visit, and they were all guests.

It wasn't until the evening that Ye Chen was idle, and after he was free, he went to visit Old Man Ye first, and saw that Old Man Ye was in much better spirits, so he didn't bother much.

After returning from Old Man Ye, he hurried to his small courtyard to see his little maid.

Dongxue's mood is a little more stable, but she is still frightened, her face is still very bad, Ye Chen has no choice but to comfort her again and again, making her feel better.

It's late to finish, but he still has to be busy, and many things must be dealt with as soon as possible, so he called his junior team.

Wu Xian, Hu Tou, Tai Shi Ci, and Li Qing were called to the study by Ye Chen.

After a few people sat down, Ye Chen first introduced them one by one.

"Wu Xian, the losses suffered by the Ye family this time can be counted." After a few people sat down, Ye Chen began to ask questions.

"This fire burned down several courtyards of the Ye family, but fortunately, the master and the young master and other main courtyards did not burn, and the loss was about one million dollars, the most important thing is that four hundred and seven people died and one hundred and twenty-one people were injured this time."

Wu Xian has been busy since last night, and he can be said to be very tired, but there are too many things to do, so he has to be busy.

"Well, in addition to the Ye family, who is responsible for all the funeral expenses, each family will give a high pension, and ensure that each family has cattle and land, three years of rent-free, if there are still difficulties in the later stage, you can come to the Ye family, and the Ye family will be responsible."

Fighting and dying for the Ye family, of course Ye Chen will not be stingy, and the army in the future will also give a high pension if the soldiers die in battle, so that the army will have combat effectiveness.

After Ye Chen finished speaking, several people present were moved, after all, they knew what the current situation was in society, and the people didn't pay attention to it at all, if they were replaced by someone else, it would be good to give some money, and they didn't care about their life or death in the future.

"For those who are injured, all the medical expenses will be paid by my Ye family, and the wages will be paid during the recuperation period, and the three months' wages will be paid as nutrition expenses, and this year's field rent will also be exempted."

Wu Xian has no opinion, because these add up to not high, and they have no effect on the Ye family at all, Ye Chen is willing to give, of course he will not have an opinion.

Ye Chen learned about other things, such as the workshop is being built intensively, the main structure has been completed, and Du Kang wine can fully meet the needs of each family at present, and there is a surplus.

After understanding some basic information, Ye Chen turned to Li Qing: "Li Qing, I came to you this time with an important task entrusted to you, I hope you can do it well." ”

"Yes, young master". Li Qing really supports Ye Chen, since he took control of the Ye family, not only can he be full, but the whole village can be full.

"The first task now is to rebuild the Ye family, of course, not the previous Ye family."

Ye Chen said that the whole person burst out with a breathtaking momentum, as if the world was the only one, and several people in the room couldn't help but be shocked.

"Young master, it's not the Ye family before, that...".

Wu Xian was confused, and he didn't know what Ye Chen meant.

"What I'm talking about is not the previous Ye family, because what I want to build is not the Ye Mansion, but the Ye Family Fort."

Urbort was not uncommon in this era, but most of them were built by a large family, a clan, a clan of hundreds, thousands of people.

A Wubao, the head of the family is like the emperor of the soil, he has a lot of power, and at the same time, he can also be condensed into a force, others dare not provoke easily, and even the government has to give three points.

With a large amount of food, a wall-like defense, and an army, Ubaolitun became an independent kingdom.

Ye Chen wanted to build Wubao firstly for defense, the world will become more and more chaotic in the future, in order to avoid a sneak attack on the rear, he can only do this, and secondly, it is also for secrecy, whether it is now or in the future, there are some secrets in the Ye family's workshops.

Everyone was shocked when they heard that Ye Chen was going to build Wubao, Wubao is a big project, it can be said to be a small city.

Ye Chen ignored everyone's surprised expressions and continued: "The world will be even more chaotic in the future, and I don't want to be attacked for the second time, so Wubao must be built."

Everyone nodded, they didn't oppose Ye Chen, they also understood that there were great benefits to building a Wu Fort.

"It just so happens that there is still a surplus of labor force we have recruited this time, and all of them can be transferred to build Wubao, and if it is not enough, I will find another way. However, for the workers, no matter who they are, they must be treated well, and the wages must be paid to everyone to ensure that they can have enough to eat at noon. ”

Although in this era, there are a large number of people who are willing to do it just for food, but Ye Chen doesn't want to do this, these people are the basis of his hegemony, and they must be treated well.

"There are several requirements for building Wubao, it must be big enough, all the workshops are surrounded into it, and the warehouses are also included as much as possible, and more warehouses must be built in Wubao, and if you can't build it on the ground, build it underground, dig it for me."

"In the end, Li Qing will be taught to be responsible for the construction of Wubao, Wu Xian has to take care of other things, the workload of Wubao is too large, Wu Xian must ensure the sufficiency of money and food and the allocation of various resources."

"Yes, young master". Li Qing and Wu Xian responded in unison.

Through Ye Chen's description, they knew that Ye Chen had a big heart and a great revenge, and Ye Chen was wise and virtuous, which made them very excited, at least they would not be buried.

Virtuousness is manifested in Ye Chen's decisiveness, understanding of people, and generosity, and his virtue is manifested in his very good treatment of the people under him, and he is also very good at treating his subordinates.

Therefore, Li Qing, Wu Xian and Tai Shici all want to follow Ye Chen to do a good job, as for the tiger head, he has been Ye Chen's retainer since he was a child, and as a personal guard, as long as there are no major changes, he will follow Ye Chen for the rest of his life.

Ye Chen had money, food and people, and in this way, the decision to build Wubao was decided.

Next is the vigorous construction.

After arranging the reconstruction of the Ye family, Ye Chen began to think about the next things.

There are two things that follow, one is to strengthen one's own strength, and the other is to take revenge. Although Qingfeng Village was exterminated, there are still masterminds behind the scenes.
