Chapter 486: Founding the City

"Is Tianjiao's words serious?"

"Naturally. ”

"Then the old man is going to... Shen Dafa's face was full of confusion, his hands kept rubbing in front of him, repeating "yes" more than a dozen times, and finally he relented and reported a number: "I want two, no! ”

After speaking, he may feel that his request is a little excessive, and he looks at Tang Luo's face with anxiety, wanting to get some reaction.

"I see. Tang Luo was expressionless and gladly accepted.

With Shen Dafa as an example, other Xiling celebrities also began to report the food they needed one by one, but the quantity they needed was getting lower and lower.

"800,000 catties. ”

"600,000 catties. ”

"Five hundred and fifty thousand catties. ”

"500,000 catties. ”

When it came to the last few, they only dared to report figures like 50,000 catties and 30,000 catties.

After everyone in the hall finished reporting the numbers, Tang Luo asked angrily, "Are you really sure that you only need so much food?"

Turning to one of the middle-aged men with a beard, Tang Luo said speechlessly: "Forget about others, the strong men under the old man don't say a thousand, there are eight hundred, and the martial artists of the mortal realm can't eat three or five catties of rice a day, what is enough for one hundred thousand catties of grain?"

There are only two shipyards in Xiling, which are located in Fenling Port and Yongning Port, which belong to the Tang Mi clan, so the shipping company in Xiling is not responsible for shipbuilding, but only trains sailors and laborers.

The Nian family has lived in Xiling for generations, and has been begging for a living on the water, training sailors, laborers and fishermen, although it is not considered a Xiling scholar, but it is also a famous and surnamed, more than ten generations of good people.

Not to mention how many people there are in the Nian family themselves, let's just say that the bitter haha people under his command all have no food to eat, and they rely on him to help, and there are tens of thousands of people in total, and the old man who takes care of these people only asks for 100,000 catties of food, Tang Luo really doesn't know what this food is enough for.

The swarthy face of the middle-aged man who was named suddenly turned red, and he stood up at a loss, shaking his thick arms and saying continuously: "Enough is enough, 100,000 catties is enough." ”

"Panic and sit down. Tang Luo waved his hand at the old man and said to everyone, "I understand that you don't want to cause me any more trouble. But there is one thing I have to tell you, this flood will not recede, and if you want to survive this winter and wait for the flood to subside, I think it will be spared. ”

You don't have to think about it to know what these people are thinking, it's nothing more than to have less entanglements with the young master of the Hao family, so as not to be controlled by others in the end, and would rather cut down on food and clothing than ask for help from the Hao family.

These are human nature, but they can only be established if the flood may recede, otherwise this kind of frugality will only make you weaker and weaker until you starve to death in this Chixia Mountain, which has only a few basins.

If everyone only thought that this was just a once-in-a-millennium flood, now they are completely confused.

"You are all righteous people of Xiling, out of respect for you, I am willing to share some news. Tang Luo put his hands on the table, crossed his fingers and said easily: "First of all, I can buy a large amount of grain, and I am willing to provide it at a normal price, so you don't have to worry that I will use grain to coerce you into surrendering." Second, the Chixia Mountain, where you are located, is already my territory, and because of the sudden natural disaster, it is provided for you to live in, but in exchange, I hope that you can also do your part for this residence, which I will talk about later. Finally, I have some soul casting methods here, and if anyone is willing to join the Star Pavilion to serve, they can provide it for free. ”

If the people who just learned that the flood would not recede were just confused, now they are completely confused, they have never seen a family like Tang Luo.

As the best of the five elements and eight works, they have faced many solicitations in their lives, Xu Qian, Xu Meise, and Xu Future, and so on, why these people are still sitting in the hall with a complete system, is because they can only see greed and ambition from the solicitation of the family, but not a trace of sincerity.

To be recruited is to be cannon fodder, and every Xiling celebrity who is recruited knows very well in his heart, because the son of the family will only trust the clan warriors and retainers, and the external family will become vassals, and the fate of forming relatives is better, at least one of them can be kept.

Tang Luo's seemingly frivolous statement has caused an uproar in the hearts of this group of celebrities.

Because he is the son of another family, he will not openly announce the news that the flood will not recede, let alone say such things as providing food.

"I don't know what Tianjiao wants us to do?" When everyone else was shocked, Ou Yu, a craftsman with deep facial features, asked Tang Luo, compared to the shock of others, this craftsman was still wary.

If the best way to live for a place is to drive them into battle, then what is the difference between it and becoming cannon fodder, it is nothing more than another way of speaking.

"Don't be nervous. Tang Luo chuckled: "It's just some things you are good at, such as building houses, building ships, striking iron, taming beasts, digging mountains, and so on." After all, my territory also needs to be done in five elements, isn't it?"

The Ou family is a famous craftsman family in Xiling, and it is a distant relative of the Ou family in Zhongzhou, so even if there are no strong warriors, they still get stable in Xiling, but this clan is not good at studying and enjoying themselves, so even if hundreds of years have passed, it is still not a rich family, and the clan power is only the last in Xiling.

But this is just used as a standard for martial artists, from another point of view, the Ou family is a baby, a top craftsman, just think about it.

Ou Yu's face was suffocated, he didn't expect Tang Luo's request to be so simple, but he was still puzzled: "The general forces can't use the Five Elements and Eight Works, Tianjiao wants to .....?"

"Yes, that's right. Tang Luo nodded, released his crossed ten fingers, stood up, walked to the map next to the wall of the council hall under the surprised gaze of everyone, pointed to the location of the main peak of Chixia Mountain, and announced to everyone: "I plan to chisel the main peak to the current mountainside, and then build a city on it, how about it?"

Tang Luo's face was full of excitement, a man's dream is to have a city of his own!

It would be better if it was still a city built from scratch, he thought that his plan would attract everyone's admiration, but when he turned around, Tang Luo could only see dozens of sluggish faces, and this feedback made him a little dissatisfied: "What kind of expression is this, do you want to dominate the sky all the time?"

Since the flood will not recede, then the city must be built, and will it be like the wild people who have been living in caves?

Everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know how to answer for a while, now the people on Chixia Mountain are even having a difficult life, Tang Luo actually wants to build a city, I don't know if this is unparalleled spirit, or if it doesn't eat the fireworks in the world.
