Chapter 15: I'm Talking About 30 Million Gold Coins!
Lu Wei pointed out to Situ that although the dolomite for the construction of the city was ready-made, the dolomite also needed to be burned to the point before it could really come in handy, and many other materials would be needed to build houses in the city in the future, so it was necessary to have some equipment needed to process the earth and stone.

Situ Jin immediately called John and asked him to immediately prepare everything according to Lu Wei's needs.
It is worth mentioning that about ten days ago, John had already transferred a lot of capable people from the imperial capital to serve the next city construction work! So although many things need to be coordinated and arranged by John, because he has enough people under him, and John has accumulated a lot of business channels over the years, he only needs to arrange many things, and everything will be carried out in an orderly manner, and the efficiency is also very considerable!
Situ asked Gao Wen to hand over most of his men to Lu Wei for the time being, and Lu Wei immediately arranged for his men to take half of them directly to mine black marble, and then arranged the rest of them to collect wood, soil and other materials for building the city.
They found a place on the outskirts of the island, cut down all the trees in this place, and set up camp on the spot.
A week later, in Situ Jin's military tent, Lu Wei stood in front of Situ Jin with the city building drawings he had preliminarily designed.
Before he could speak, Situ Jin spoke first: "Lu Wei, don't call me a benefactor in the future, just call me by my name like everyone else!"
Lu Wei was slightly stunned, and then said: "That's it, I will call you Lord Baron like everyone else in the future!"
Situ Jin nodded: "It's okay!"
Lu Wei handed the design drawings in his hand to Situ Jin and said, "Lord Baron, this is my preliminary design of the city construction plan, please take a look!"
Situ Jin took the drawings, looked down, and immediately looked at Lu Wei in his heart.
Originally, I heard Lu Wei say that he was an architect, and he didn't care too much about it, but now Lu Wei brought the drawings to him, and the so-called experts knew if there was any, although he didn't understand architectural things, but he could draw the drawings so finely, and he knew at a glance that Lu Wei was indeed an authority in this area.
Seeing that Situ Jin was stunned, Lu Wei thought that Situ Jin didn't understand the design drawings he drew, so he took the initiative to explain: "That's the case, Lord Baron, according to my repeated consideration, I think that the area of the island is enough to build at least 15 cities, and now we are just starting out, and we are very short of manpower and materials, so I suggest that we start building five cities first!"
"Five cities?" Situ Jin was a little surprised, he originally just wanted to build a city, but he didn't expect this Lu Wei to make such a big move.
Lu Wei nodded, and said, "Yes, Lord Baron! According to my vision, one of the five cities is the main city, and the other four cities are distributed around the main city as sub-cities, which play a protective role in the main city! Do you think my idea is feasible?"
Situ Jin looked at Lu Wei: "If you build five cities, is the black marble you said enough to build the city?"
Lu Wei nodded: "Lord Baron, please rest assured, there are enough black marble veins on the island, not to mention building five cities, even building fifty cities is enough!"
Situ thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, you can let it go!"
Hearing Situ Jin's words, Lu Wei's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face, which had become sallow due to overnutrition, suddenly seemed to glow with a different brilliance, and he suddenly found that he really liked the phrase "let it go" that Situ Jin had just said!
Suppressing the excitement in his heart for the time being, Lu Wei turned to say: "However, Baron Situ, although we have a lot of ready-made materials for building a city, and we don't need to spend money to buy them from outside, you must know that building a city or building our city in the future may require a lot of money! According to my conservative estimate, we still need at least 30 million gold coins after all five cities are built, if you don't have so much money for the time being, we can only settle for the next best thing and build the main city first!"
This time, Situ Jin didn't even think about it, so he replied: "Lu Wei, you just have to build the city for me, don't worry about the problem of funds!"
Seeing that Situ Jin agreed so happily, and hearing him say that the astronomical amount of tens of millions of gold coins didn't even blink an eye, Lu Wei's heart became a little bottomless.
Lu Wei has been in the Yaluo Empire for a while, and he has heard about Situ Jin and his family's affairs, in his opinion, Situ Jin now has no strong family backing, and he will definitely not be able to come up with much money at once.
Therefore, before telling Situ Jin this, he had already thought that Situ Jin would immediately reject his plan after hearing his budget, but for his unattainable architectural dream, knowing that it was impossible for him to do it, he was already satisfied with the phrase "let it go" from Situ Jin's mouth!
Unexpectedly, things were greatly unexpected by him, and where he thought that Situ Jin would definitely attract opposition, Situ Jin agreed to him without even thinking about it, as if he wanted him to take out not 30 million gold coins, but 3,000 gold coins.
Lu Wei looked at Situ Jin uncertainly: "Lord Baron, I'm talking about 30 million gold coins!"
Situ Jin looked at Lu Wei with a serious face, nodded and said, "I know, 30 million gold coins, I heard it clearly! You can do the things of building the city, and I will solve the money things!"
Lu Wei looked at Situ Jin with a complicated expression, he didn't know what to say, and after a while, he said: "Lord Baron, I'm not joking with you, if you really build the city according to my design plan, I'm afraid it will take five million gold coins in place next month!"
Situ Jin did not hesitate: "Okay, I will definitely be in place on time, and I won't delay your work!"
When Lu Wei left from Situ Jin's military tent with a suspicious face, Situ Jin immediately called Xiu into the military tent.
"Young Master!" Xiu walked straight to Situ Jin.
Situ said: "Give me 30 million gold coins from the organization's account immediately, is there a problem?"
Xiu had a gentle expression, and when he heard Situ Jin's words, his expression did not change much, and he bowed slightly and said, "No problem, young master!"
Situ Jin's eyes flashed with a hint of remembrance, and after a while, he said: "It's been more than a month since I came back, and I've been busy and haven't had any time, so it's time to meet everyone!"
After a pause, Situ Jin looked at Xiu: "In addition to you and me, there are seven other purple-level killers in the organization, let them come here to see me within a month!"
"Do as you command!" Xiu said respectfully.
