Time passed, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past seven days, Haiyuan City has been thriving under the governance of Fang Xuanling.

Xia Ren also sent someone to clean up the island in the middle of the lake and sent the women and children home.

As for those women who didn't want to go home, Xia Ren also let them stay on the island in the middle of the lake, be a maid, and clean up usually.

Regarding the issue of the palace, Xia Ren also found someone to plan, but after those craftsmen got Xia Ren's design drawings, they all said that it would take two months to build. So Xia Ren still lives in the City Lord's Mansion now.

And the mansion seized by Wang Jiang's two families and the palace that the Wang family said they would give to Xia Ren, Xia Ren rewarded Fang Xuanling, Zhou Tai and Zhou Cang respectively.

After all, the summoned characters are all normal people, they will all get married and have children, and after having a family in the future, they will always have a place to live.

At this time, Xia Ren was practicing boxing with Zhou Cang in the backyard, this is the "Nine Divine Fist" that Xia Ren selected from the Royal Library Pavilion, this boxing method Xia Ren has been insisting on practicing.

In the past five years, Xia Ren has cultivated to the third level, and one punch can contain three layers of internal strength, one wave is stronger than another, and ordinary people in the same realm can't stop Xia Ren's punch.

Zhou Cang suppressed the realm to the innate double, and he was in full swing with Xia Ren.

Xia Ren lifted the Ninefold Divine Fist, and with one punch, an explosion sounded in the air, accompanied by three internal strengths, and attacked Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cang raised his hand into a palm, and met Xia Ren's fist with one palm.

Suddenly, the fists and palms intersected, the air waves scattered, the surrounding leaves were blowing, and the tables, chairs and benches shook for a while.

In the middle of the sound, the two of them finished their work, and Zhou Cang couldn't help but admire: "The lord is really powerful, this move is a ninefold divine fist, hidden triple internal strength, endless, and it can't be prevented, or I have been prepared, I'm afraid I'm already making a fool." ”

Xia Ren laughed and said: "Yuanfu, you don't have to be modest, I still have a good idea of my strength, although this Nine Divine Fist can't hurt you, but ordinary people will be difficult to resist." ”

Zhou Canghan smiled and scratched his head.

"Anyway, the lord is very powerful. ”

Then Xia Ren asked Zhou Cang some questions in his cultivation, and Zhou Cang also answered them in detail.

At this time, Xiao Guizi came over and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, General Zhou Tai has returned and is now waiting in the hall." ”

When Xia Ren heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hurry up and invite General Zhou to come, and by the way, find the city lord by the way. ”

Zhou Cang next to him scratched his head at this time and said: "Lord, General Zhou Tai is back, is this recruitment matter handed over to him?

Xia Ren was speechless, and scolded with a smile: "You think I don't know, you handed over the recruitment to Qin Yong, and hid on the side to be idle, and now you still want to step down." ”

When Zhou Cang heard this, he immediately scratched his head with an embarrassed face, laughed, and was silent.

A moment later, Zhou Tai and Fang Xuanling walked over together.

"My subordinates have seen my lord!"

"Well, no need to be polite. ”

Xia Ren smiled: "I just asked Xiao Guizi to find Mr. Fang and you to come over, but I didn't expect the two of you to come together." ”

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Xia Guan also heard that General Zhou Tai was back just now, and guessed that the main guild was coming to look for me, so he came over on his own, and just met General Zhou Tai halfway, so he came over together." ”

Xia Ren nodded, and smiled at Zhou Tai: "Youping has been gone for more than ten days, I miss it very much!"

Zhou Tai clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "I am tired of the lord's worries, and the last general is not very grateful, this time the last general has lived up to the trust of the lord, and has successfully persuaded the Zhou family to serve the lord." ”

"Oh?"

Xia Ren was immediately pleasantly surprised.

"Then I don't know where the people of the Zhou family are now?"

Zhou Cang replied: "Back to the lord, after the last general convinces the Zhou family, he will come back first to report to the lord, and the people of the Zhou family will pack up their things and come later." ”

"Hmm,"

Xia Ren replied and hurriedly asked, "Youping knows what the Zhou family's shipbuilding ability is, and what is the quality of the best ships that can be built?"

Zhou Tai thought for a moment and replied: "The shipbuilding capacity of the Zhou family is one of the best in Linhai County, even if it is placed in Donghai Prefecture, it is also a good shot, and the strongest ship that the Zhou family can make at present can only travel within 300 kilometers, but the speed is much faster than ordinary ships." ”

Xia Ren was suddenly a little disappointed, the Zhou family really couldn't build the kind of ship that traveled 300 kilometers away.

At this time, Zhou Tai hesitated for a while and said, "My lord, in fact, there is a ship in Donghai Prefecture that can build a ship that can travel 300 kilometers away, but it is ......"

"But what?" Xia Ren asked as soon as he heard that there was a force that could build such a ship.

Zhou Tai pondered for a moment and said, "However, the ships built by this force are never sold out, and the production is still very low, and I heard that the materials needed are very precious. ”

"What is it?"

"Listen to the Rain Pavilion. ”

"Listen to the Rain Pavilion?" Xia Ren was suddenly puzzled,

"What kind of force is this?"

Zhou Tai replied: "Tingyu Pavilion is the Zhenzhou sect of Donghai Prefecture, and it is the strongest sect in Donghai Prefecture, even the imperial court is not willing to provoke a force for nothing. ”

Xia Ren was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this Tingyu Pavilion to be so strong, he immediately rubbed his brows, and said helplessly: "Since this Tingyu Pavilion is so strong, it seems that there is no way." ”

"Lord, Tingyu Pavilion is actually closer to the imperial court, if the lord really wants that kind of ship, you can let Li Hou Ye try it, Li Hou is also a big man in Donghai Prefecture, I believe that he should be able to get one or two ships for the lord. ”

Zhou Tai thought about it, but still said a way.

Xia Ren waved his hand after hearing this, and said: "Forget it, even if you get one or two back, it's useless, and according to what you said, the ships they built are all precious materials, so it's not cost-effective, I'm thinking of a way." ”

Since Donghai Prefecture could not find a ship that could sail 300 kilometers away safely, Xia Ren could only take a handful of krypton, hoping that the system would greatly give face.

At this time, Fang Xuanling spoke: "Lord, since General Zhou Tai is back, is it possible to conduct naval training, even if there are no such powerful warships for the time being, you can replace the training with the rest of the ships first." ”

Xia Ren nodded, and smiled at Zhou Tai: "Youping, now that you have finished dealing with the affairs of the Zhou family, then the training of the navy will be on the agenda, before I asked Yuanfu to recruit 10,000 recruits for you, you can go to the military camp later." ”

Zhou Tai suddenly said solemnly: "Don't worry, the last general will go to the military camp later, and he will definitely train an elite soldier who can fight well for the lord." ”

Xia Ren patted Zhou Tai's shoulder, and said seriously: "Youping, now that the king is weak, and there is no war in the East China Sea, the affairs of the army can only be handed over to you, I hope you can train a group of sailors as soon as possible, especially the "Canglan Guard, the more the merrier." ”

Ever since he saw the combat effectiveness of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, Xia Ren has fallen in love with the trainable troops of the summoned characters, which are really not a little stronger than ordinary soldiers, it is simply far from it.

Zhou Tai's solemn face, after listening to Xia Ren's words, suddenly twitched slightly, and he could only helplessly hug his fists and say, "The last general will do his best." ”

Looking at Zhou Tai's helpless expression, Xia Ren suddenly smiled and said: "Haha, Youping shouldn't have too much pressure, just follow your own pace, after your navy is initially formed, I still need you to exterminate the pirates." ”

"By the way, Youping, I will give you the Jiang family's mansion, you take the time to go back and tidy up, and when the Zhou family comes, I will live in it first, and after I find a suitable place to build a shipyard, I need them to go to build a ship." ”

Zhou Tai immediately clenched his fists and said respectfully: "Thank you, lord, the last general is grateful." ”

Xia Ren turned his head to Fang Xuanling again and asked, "Mr. Fang, has something happened in the city these days?"

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "No major incident has happened, since the lord killed Wang Jiang and the two families, few people dare to blatantly break the law." ”

After thinking for a while, Fang Xuanling continued: "However, the young men in the city have been very enthusiastic about joining the army in the past few days, which may be due to the reputation of the lord, so tens of thousands of people have signed up in just a few days, and these 10,000 recruits are still selected." ”

Xia Ren pondered for a moment and said: "That's fine, these 10,000 people are carefully selected, so it may be easier for Youping to train, but those who sign up for the army and are screened out should not give up, and choose 10,000 qualified ones as city guards, there were too few city guards in the past, and they couldn't do anything when they encountered something." ”

After instructing Fang Xuanling, Xia Ren turned his head to Zhou Cang and said, "Yuanfu, these 10,000 people are under your command first, and they must train well to improve their combat effectiveness." ”

Zhou Cang suddenly became anxious, "I'll go to train recruits, who will protect your safety." ”

Xia Ren said with a smile: "I have been living in the City Lord's Mansion at present, and Mr. Fang is here, who still hurt me."

Fang Xuanling smiled and nodded.

Zhou Cang had no choice but to respond with a bitter face: "No,"
