Chapter 173: Growth

This sentence is clearly not meant to ask for help. Hearing that tone, Yanxi could only nod her head blankly.

"Eh, what a ......"

Soon, the car arrived in front of the canyon. Kuroo pushed the door and got out of the car, and walked straight down the canyon.

Through the car window, Yanxi could clearly see two giant crossbow arrows ten feet long standing above the canyon. This is something that is used against battleships. There were also dozens of patrolling demon soldiers over there, all of them heavily armed.

In just over a year, Yanxi thought that the camp she ran had changed enough, but she didn't expect it......

When she got out of the car, she looked around a little hesitantly. Behind him, the coachman and the four demon soldiers were already dumbfounded.

The mouth of the canyon is made of giant trees, the city wall and gate are as high as six zhang, and there is a small group of demon soldiers standing on it. The banner of the word "flower" hunted in this snowy wind.

Don't say anything else, just the battle in front of her, saying that it is not a large stronghold but a mine, Yanxi doesn't believe it anyway.

Through the open door, Yanxi can clearly see a gravel paved road that leads to the depths of Huaguo Mountain. On both sides, there are layers of wooden sheds, one after another. Although it is simple, the huge number of piles together still has a certain deterrent effect.

As for the farther one, Yanxi can't see it anymore. However, in the distance, didn't he already see enough for twenty warships to dock in the airport?

With such strength, it's no wonder that Fang Cai Heiwei is so confident. Compared to here, on the contrary, the 1,000 troops stationed in the demon capital who should have been the main force seem insignificant. This is true no matter how well-equipped.

Thinking about it, Yanxi smiled helplessly.

I have been running around for a year, in fact, it is a military merit, so that Di Jun can approve the expansion of the army. More precisely, it is to get more military funds on the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, so as to raise more troops and make the newly established new army grow rapidly.

What about monkeys?

There is no military merit, and there is no approval from Emperor Jun to expand the army, let alone the military expenses allocated by the Ten Thousand Demon Palace. Isn't this the same as growing?

In a year's time, a bonanza close to the demon capital and without paying taxes can do a lot of things. It can only be said that she and the multi-eyed monster were too interested in the financial support and military power of the demon capital. In the end, what is more than a monkey becomes their limitation.

After a while, Blacktail walked back along the gravel road and said, "Brother Monkey asked me to ask you, is there something wrong?"

"Something. ”

"Business or private?"

"Business. ”

"Brother Monkey said that he doesn't care anymore, you and Prime Minister Duomu can solve it yourself. ”

"It's about the business agreed between him and his brother. ”

Blacktail seemed to hesitate.

Seeing this, Yanxi immediately took out the warrant from her waist.

"Okay, in that case, let's go in together. ”

As he spoke, Blacktail turned around and walked away, looking impatient.

Yanxi frowned, but she could only take the carriage, coachmen, and demon soldiers to follow.

It must be said that from a distance, here is a behemoth, a fortress, magnificent, magnificent. When I walked into it, I felt that it was a construction site.

Everything doesn't seem to be as rosy as it appears from afar, however, that's what makes this place even more terrifying.

The rock wall has been hollowed out, and the logs have been dug into it, stretching out to form a suspended suspension bridge. Corridors, wooden houses, thatched houses, and earthen buildings are built in a haphazard manner, layered on top of each other, and are extremely crowded. Construction is taking place on almost every corner.

It gives the impression that what is seen now is not everything. The place is "growing".

Through the doors, windows, and caves, Yanxi can clearly see the figures one by one. They were dressed in shabby cloth robes, skinny and dusty, and they were quietly watching themselves with open eyes.

"Where did all these monsters come from?"

"Just came. Blacktail replied casually.

"Just here? Where did you just come from? ”

"Outside the demon capital. ”

"What are you doing, are you a miner?"

"We don't need that many miners. Kuroo frowned and said, "They sharpened their heads and wanted to be miners, but we really don't need that much, and we can't afford to raise them." However, it seems unreasonable to drive away. So, they can only stay for the time being. A place to live, there is only so much that can be given for the time being. ”

"Then they don't belong to the New Army, do they?"

"Certainly not belong, not only do they not belong to the Forces nouvelles, but they are not under our control. It can only be regarded as a temporary sojourn. ”

Hearing this, Yanxi smiled helplessly and said, "You guys are quite kind, but do you know that this will cause problems?"

"What's the problem?"

"There will be unrest. Yanxi said a little proudly: "Do you think, why don't you allow the little demon to enter? There are so many little demons who want to enter the demon capital, so many that no matter how big the demon is, it is impossible to accept it." When you first arrived in the demon capital, weren't you also in a hurry to find work? You couldn't afford to support so many people. Without even a full meal, the dogs jump over the wall in a hurry, and they will all end up being the source of unrest. ”

"Really?" Blacktail glanced at Yeon-hee with an expressionless face.

At this moment, the scene in front of me gradually opened up. They had already walked through the canyon that ran through the crater.

What unfolds in front of you is a vast area.

The trail in the middle leads to the main peak. On both sides, there is a flat and wide school field. There were a handful of soldiers on it.

In the distance, there are cascading houses, high and low, almost all of which are filled, some crowded, and even some of the surrounding cliffs are hung with some dwellings that resemble birds' nests.

With her eyes wide open, Yanxi looked at the crowded demons in the gap between the houses with some astonishment.

"Bazaar?"

"These are also sojourners. Kuroo said leisurely on the side: "Who told you that the monster must be raised by someone? Can't you raise it yourself? Not only the market, but also the workshop, in addition to personal use, some things will be sold to the demon capital." None of this is our industry. ”

"How many youkai are there?"

"I don't know, tens of thousands. The ones you just saw are those that have just arrived, and these are those that have been here for a while. If you are alive, you must eat, and if you are alive, you will find food to eat. At most, it's just a land offer, and they don't have to worry about it. ”

"Wait, Senior Brother just approved that your mines don't have to pay taxes, and didn't say that these industries can be ......"

"Then you're going to tax us?" said Kuroo, glancing at Yanxi with an expressionless face.

In the previous mouth, the "we" in Blacktail's mouth refers to the new army that stays here, and at most includes the mines. But when it comes to taxation, "we" immediately include even the sojourners.

After thinking about it, she probably thought it was boring to fight for this, so Yanxi closed her mouth and didn't say anything more.

However, there are more and more unexpected things. When she stood outside Huaguo Mountain, Yanxi just thought that the monkey had armed an army with the wealth obtained from the mine, but now she looked at it and directly established a town. This is in the entire demon country, except for the stations of a few demon kings, it is really unique.

And unlike the demon king, he is simply not refusing to come to the little demon. And for all this, the demon capital, which is more than a hundred miles away, doesn't know anything.
