"They are in favor of the unity of the army, but I think there are not many soldiers, Brother Xiang, if you have the idea of dominating the world, I am very supportive of merging together, but this mainly depends on your thoughts, if you only want to keep one side safe, our current strength is enough. ”

Yu Hongliang always took Xiang Qingxi's idea as the starting point, which was also the oath he made to himself when he decided to assist Xiang Qingxi, Xiang Qingxi saved his lover, even if Xiang Qingxi took his life at this time, he would not frown, let alone support Xiang Qingxi's idea.

"Hai Qianqiu, how many soldiers and horses does he have?" Xiang Qingxi pondered for a while, then raised his head and asked.

"Less than 40,000, more than 38,000, most of the soldiers are the people of Dingzhou, and their quality is average, slightly stronger than the soldiers and horses of the command battalion in Zhenyuan Prefecture. Among them, crossbowmen are the mainstay, cavalry is the auxiliary, and the number of infantry is the least, more than 3,000. But he said that he had 50,000 men who could be called upon at any time in time of war. Yu Hongliang replied.

When Hai Qianqiu came, he explained these data to Yu Hongliang in detail, so when Yu Hongliang answered Xiang Qingxi's question, he also answered in detail.

"Well, no matter how many people there are, it won't be of much use to us, maybe the development of the city can be used by the people, so how did you reply to him?" Xiang Qingxi nodded, not clearly expressing his thoughts, but asked rhetorically.

"I told him that we can first cooperate and exchange information, and of course I will send instructors in the early stage to let them go over to do the ideological and political work of the soldiers, and then see the progress of the ideological and political work and the cooperation of the Dingzhou side, and then determine the direction of future development. Yu Hongliang's reply to Hai Qianqiu was actually very general, and there was a feeling of unilaterally occupying Dingzhou and commanding the envoy's camp.

"That's how you replied? Does Hai Qianqiu have no opinion? What are his conditions?" Xiang Qingxi looked at Yu Hongliang suspiciously, it stands to reason that Yu Hongliang is mature and sophisticated, and he will not give such conditions for almost comprehensive occupation.

"No, I don't know where he heard the news, although our army is not numerous, but its combat power is amazing, and he gives me the feeling that he is not here to talk about merger or cooperation, but about surrender. Yu Hongliang smiled slightly, he understood where Xiang Qingxi's puzzled eyes came from.

"He only gave one condition, if our territory is big in the future, just give him the treatment of a country and China, and he will pay tribute. When Yu Hongliang said the conditions of the sea for thousands of years, there was a strangeness in his eyes, "Guozhong, is it the meaning of a vassal country, it is similar to our autonomous region." ”

"I don't know, it should be about the same, then it's no problem, what about the news, it should be given by Hai Da Fat, all of this is not important, the answer you gave is very good, first transform your thinking, and then organize and merge after the effect, with the construction progress of our basin community, there should be no problem with living in more than 100,000 people, this basin is at least half the size of Yushi, we are not afraid that they will come more after the merger. Xiang Qingxi said suddenly.

"Yes, it should be almost half the size of the jade city, as long as we plan well and complete it in an all-round way, there is no problem at all to live in a million people, if the electricity is sufficient, we can do high-rise, elevator rooms, then we can live more people, but this ancient main thing has to solve the food problem, and now there is no problem with drinking water at all, and eighty percent of the water tanks have not been activated. Daily life can also be solved, and in order to make a city run benignly, it is necessary to have a complete industrial chain. ”

After Yu Hongliang was discharged from the army, he did a lot of industries, and he couldn't say that he was proficient in everything, but he had a certain understanding of the city's general industry, so what he said had a certain truth.

"Well, the families of the soldiers who live in now, did they spontaneously organize themselves and do some small business and business or something?" Xiang Qingxi didn't go there to investigate, so he didn't know the specific situation over there.

"Of course there is, and there are a lot of them, Zhenyuan Prefecture itself is a relatively large city, all walks of life have, now the house on the first floor of the community, as well as the shops on the commercial street have begun to rent and sell, that is, the two big problems of transportation and energy need to be solved urgently. Although every household has electric lights, we always provide them for free, so there will be a day when we can't afford it. Yu Hongliang is very satisfied with the development of the basin community, but if the plate is big, there will be many problems.

"Brother Yu, in a few days, I will bring a few buses in, you plan a few routes, and the cost will be replaced by copper plates for the time being, but this problem of oil exploitation and power still needs to be solved, and if it is not solved, it is not a matter to always rely on the world over there to transport energy. I have brought in all the books in this area, and I should seize the time to organize people to study systematically to see if I can make a breakthrough, but if I can't do it, I can only recruit from the real world outside. This is what Xiang Qingxi does not want to see, recruiting workers in the real world involves the problem of family members, so it is more difficult to do.

"In addition, I will bring in a few more sets of wind turbines, the money in reality comes slowly, and I can't get too much, so take your time. By the way, how is this guy Song Qinglian now, is he still so incorruptible?" Xiang Qingxi had an idea in his heart, the basin community, to become the first modern city in the Song Dynasty, to let this first batch of citizens get rich first, and then build such a city later, the attraction will be greater.

"He, now he is worthy of the word incorruptible, and this guy is indeed a good hand at managing cities, Yuan Ming and I have been to the cities that our teleportation array can reach, and it is also the best managed city in Zhenyuan Prefecture. Of course, it is also indispensable to Brother Xiang, without the vegetable supply you provided, Zhenyuan Prefecture would not be so stable, nor would it be so much better than other cities, after reading it, I found that the city is simply not a level. ”

Every time Yu Hongliang mentions the topic of the city with others, he always thinks of Xiang Qingxi's contribution to Zhenyuan Prefecture, and he feels a sense of pride in his heart, and he is also very glad that he helped Xiang Qingxi a small favor, but in exchange for such a deep reward.

"Teleportation array?" Xiang Qingxi's heart moved, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, what kind of bus do you need if you have a teleportation array, really.

"Well, then let him be the first mayor of this basin new city, Brother Yu, set up a finance department as soon as possible, and if the shops are rented and sold, there must be income, encourage the families of soldiers to do business, reduce all taxes for them, and make the city run as soon as possible. Xiang Qingxi is very optimistic about the development prospects of this new city.

Although the new city is still constantly investing in costs, he believes that in the near future, when everything in the city can run normally, the city's finances will not be in deficit forever, even if it is not profitable, there is no need to invest like a bottomless pit like now. .com reading, a better reading experience.
