When Mu Tong heard this, he looked at Liu Zhibang's eyes even more suspiciously, and said: "Patriarch, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this mountain rock is extremely hard, and a straight avenue is opened from it, how is this possible?" ”

Xia Zhuangzhuang also felt that it was unlikely, only Aya's expression was a little calm, the scientific and technological level of Liu Zhibang's hometown was far superior to that of this planet, she had seen a lot of information on the "Noah's Ark System", but she had not mentioned it to others, she had been tight-lipped, and she had become numb to Liu Zhibang's amazing actions, not to mention the amazing words.

When passing by a residential settlement, those working peasants saw Liu Zhibang's banner, hurriedly threw down their work, knelt on the ground, Liu Zhibang jumped off the horse, walked to an old man and helped him up, and said loudly: "Everyone get up, don't bow to me in the future......

The old man looked at Liu Zhibang with grateful eyes and said: "Patriarch, if it is not for you to take it in, our whole village will die in the war, you are the reincarnation of the creation god, we will give you a salute, just a small reward for your kindness......"

Liu Zhibang carefully looked at the fifty-year-old man in front of him, and saw that although his skin was rough, his temperament was extraordinary, not like ordinary villagers, and he couldn't help asking: "Uncle, dare to ask your surname, where is your origin?" ”

The old man humbly continued: "The little old man's surname is Jia, his name is Boyong, he was originally the mayor of Chisong Town, Chaodong County, Wumang County, due to many years of natural disasters, coupled with the robbery of Shuntian, he fled to Xia Yuan City with his whole clan...... Xiao Lao'er is currently the village chief of Heicaopo Village, thanks to the patriarch's trust in the new law and the support of the villagers......"

After listening to Jia Boyong's words, Liu Zhibang thought about it, called Aya and Xia Zhuangzhuang over, and said: "After you go back, launch a survey of all residents, all those who have read books, or have management experience, or have a skill, regardless of their background, all of them are registered and reported to me. All talents who are self-recommended and recommended, and who are verified to have real materials, will be rewarded......"

"Yes, Patriarch!" Aya and Xia Zhuangzhuang bowed their heads and obeyed.

After that, Liu Zhibang turned to Jia Boyong again and said: "Mr. Jia, my Han nationality is just waiting for a hundred wastes, and I am thirsty for talents, I wonder if you are interested in joining my Han nationality as an official?" ”

When Jia Boyong heard this, he looked a little excited, but he still looked back at the villagers behind him, everyone's eyes showed a look of encouragement and expectation, Jia Boyong nodded gratefully to the villagers, knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Zhibang and said: "Thank you for the cultivation of the patriarch, the old decay must be exhausted, and it will be ...... after death."

Liu Zhibang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, I will arrange your specific work after you arrive in Fire Dance City......

Jia Boyong didn't get up after hearing this, and said: "Patriarch, I just heard that you want to recruit talents, but you have two sons who are not successful, and you have also read some books, I wonder if the patriarch is willing to consider the second son?" ”

Liu Zhibang was happy when he heard this: "Okay, you go to Fire Dance City together, and after passing the assessment, you can arrange work...... You leave Heicao Slope, and the villagers will choose a village chief to replace you, give you a day to hand over, and then go to Fire Dance City to find me Liu Zhibang......"

Saying goodbye to the villagers of Heicaopo, Liu Zhibang and his party went on the road again, Mu Tong recalled the scene just now, and hesitated for a long time in his heart. Liu Zhibang walked for a while, didn't hear Mu Tong talking, turned around and asked, "Brother Mu, why don't you speak, what's on your mind?" ”

Mu Tong looked up at Liu Zhibang and pondered: "Patriarch, did you just say that you will reduce talents without sticking to one pattern, is it aimed at everyone?" ”

Liu Zhibang was surprised when he heard this: "That's right, why did Brother Mu ask some questions, could it be that someone wants to recommend him?" ”

Mu Tongxin thought for a moment, and then said, "I want to recommend someone!" ”

When Liu Zhibang heard this, he smiled and said: "It seems that today is a good day, there are constantly talents emerging, Brother Mu, tell me quickly, who is the talent, what are your specialties?" ”

Mu Tong hurriedly continued: "I have a son named Bai Huanjuan, his mother's family is the Qingyun Empire's Yongfu County Palace, his father is the current Yongfu County Wang Bai Zhuo, and his brother is the general Bai Guanyu, the commander of the right army of the Qingyun Empire's forbidden army, and his mother's family is a nobleman of the Qingyun Empire. Although Neiko is a daughter, she also pretended to be a man on the battlefield when she was young, and she was dressed in a civil and martial arts...... Although I heard that the Han people allowed women to be officials, but considering the origin of the inner son, I didn't dare to mention it to the patriarch, but today I saw that the patriarch really wanted talents, regardless of the background of talents, so I dared to recommend the inner son to the adults......"

Xia Zhuangzhuang heard it on the side and laughed: "Shopkeeper Mu, your son-in-law is the princess of the county, how can he marry you?" Hehe......"

Liu Zhibang glanced at Xia Zhuangzhuang, Xia Zhuangzhuang immediately turned positive, Liu Zhibang smiled and said to Mu Tong: "Brother Mu, we have been friends for several months, my personality should be clear, since Mrs. Mu has such a talent, I can't use what I have learned to benefit the people of Limin, it's a pity, Brother Mu, I'm here to give you a bottom, as long as you can be loyal to the Han people, pure heart, I accept anyone from any background, and no matter whether Mrs. Mu is a princess who has been married, that is, the prince of the county is willing to cooperate with my Han people, I welcome it with both hands!" ”

"Seriously!" Mu Tong was overjoyed.

Liu Zhibang said: "You have no jokes! ”

As soon as they approached the Fire Dance City, Mu Tong and Xia Zhuangzhuang were shocked by the scene in front of them, although they had long known that the Fire Dance City was expanding, but seeing is believing, this Fire Dance City built a circle of city walls 1,500 meters outside the original outer city wall, although it has not yet been completed, but tens of thousands of people are busy on the new outer city wall, and the scene in full swing is still deeply shocking.

Mu Tongzan said: "Patriarch, are you going to build a capital!" ”

Liu Zhibang has gradually become accustomed to Mu Tong's amazement, and said with a smile: "Tens of thousands of people have increased all of a sudden, the original Fire Dance City is too small, and it has to be built larger, although I have not been to the Qingyun Empire's Kyoto Zhongjing City, but I also know that it is far from being comparable to the current Fire Dance City, and the number of people alone is much worse......"

Mu Tong asked again: "How many people can live in this new city?" ”

Liu Zhibang replied lightly: "My plan is to build a city that can accommodate 100,000 people, and there are only 30,000 people in Fire Dance City at present, but I estimate that more and more people will live in it as time goes by, so the design reserves some space......"
