Chapter 353 Disarmament

Chapter 353 Disarmament

"This subordinate swears to die to complete the task!" The six old men knelt on one knee, their voices were sonorous and powerful, forming a huge contrast with the old appearance.

Chen Gu glanced at the six people indifferently, and then shifted his gaze to the rest of the ice palace: "Except for the three Bai Ling, the rest of the monster class can also worship under my sect and become registered disciples temporarily, are you willing?"

His eyes fell on a group of big monsters behind the three of Bai Ling.

Hearing this, all the great monsters couldn't help but get excited, and knelt down on the ground one after another: "This junior is willing!"

Although the status of registered disciples is far lower than that of official disciples, they are still the disciples of the Demon King. With this level of status, no matter where they go, no one dares to underestimate them.

Not to mention those ordinary alchemy monsters, even those natural beasts, I am afraid they all aspire to become Chen Gu's registered disciples!

Now that such a good thing happened to them, how could they not be willing?

They don't expect any extravagant gifts, becoming Chen Gu's registered disciples is the best gift!

After a while, Chen Gu floated away, and everyone in the ice palace also began to disperse one after another.

"Elder Sister, have a good journey." Just as he joined Chen Gu's sect, the Chilong King got used to his new identity.

"Bon voyage." The Green Winged Eagle King said calmly.

After bidding farewell to the Red Dragon King, Green Winged Eagle King, and Tian Hum and other big monsters, Bai Ling didn't stay any longer and set off directly with the six old men.

Regarding the sale of tickets to the Dark Abyss, Bai Ling discussed with Tian Hum and other big monsters yesterday, and Tian Hum was in charge of everything.

"call out……"

The ear-piercing sound of breaking wind resounded in the sky, and the figures of Bai Ling and the six old men flew towards the west at a high speed.

The Chilong King and others returned to the Sky Academy in a regular manner. After that, the Qingyi Diaowang and others practiced quietly in the academy, and the Chilong King rushed to the foot of the barren mountain to preside over the construction of the new city.

In the newly built City Lord's Mansion in the new city, Qin Lian slowly put down the brush, immediately rubbed his temples, and let out a long breath: "It's finally finished!"

On the desk, on a huge piece of rice paper, there are four large characters written in the center of the first row: "Registration of settlement."

After a few days of thinking and deliberation, he finally formulated the details of the settlement rules completely and standardizedly. The content of the main frame is completely formulated according to Zhang Yu's intention. Every standard is clear and there are no loopholes.

Of course, this settlement announcement will not take Qin Lian a few days. The reason why the settlement announcement is completed now is because he has processed all the applications for household registration that have been backlogged for many days in the past few days. Those who are in the whirlpool state are all approved, and those whose cultivation level has not reached the whirlpool state are all rejected. It seems that the work is very simple, but in fact it is very boring.

"Come on."

Qin Lian stood up, stretched my muscles a bit, and then yelled to the outside of the room.

Soon, a middle-aged man in armor came in and said respectfully, "My lord!"

Qin Lian pointed to the rice paper on the desk, and said, "Give me an order to make a hundred copies of this settlement announcement, and post it everywhere so that everyone can see it."

"Yes!" The middle-aged man replied respectfully, then carefully rolled up the rice paper and walked out of the room.

After a while, the middle-aged man walked into the room again, bent down and said, "My lord, this subordinate has conveyed your order, and it will be completed in about an hour."

Qin Lian nodded and asked, "How is the construction of the new city going?" He has been busy dealing with settlement matters for the past few days, and has not had time to pay attention to the outside situation. Now that the settlement has been settled, he naturally needs to care about the construction of the new city After all, this is the first task assigned to him by the dean, no matter what, he must complete this task well.

The middle-aged man replied: "The foundation has been laid, public facilities such as squares and streets have been constructed, and residential houses are currently being built..."

At this point, the middle-aged man hesitated to speak.

"Is there a problem?" Qin Lian asked suspiciously.

"My lord, the construction of the deserted city consumes so much money, and it is completely maintained by the treasury funds. I am worried that if this continues, the treasury funds will be exhausted before the deserted city is completed." The middle-aged man suggested: "These houses are originally for the people. Why didn't they charge a certain fee for the construction? Besides, wouldn't the materials for the construction of the houses be better? I remember that when the city lord's mansion in the old city of the deserted city was built, such good materials were not used... "

If you can lower your material standards, you can save a lot of money.

For this old subordinate who has been with him for more than 20 years, Qin Lian still trusts him very much. He also understands that the other party is sincerely thinking of himself, so he does not blame the other party.

"It's the dean's decision to let people with household registration in the original deserted city settle in the new deserted city for free." Qin Lian shook his head and explained: "Because the former deserted city will be divided into the Sky Academy, the dean doesn't want to take advantage of the people, so this is the decision." Decide."

The middle-aged man was startled, and when he heard that this was the dean's decision, he stopped being entangled immediately.

"What about materials?" The middle-aged man said again: "People don't have high requirements for houses, as long as they have a place to live, they don't need to use such good materials?"

When it came to this question, Qin Lian was also a little helpless. He smiled wryly and said, "I persuaded the Red Dragon King that way at first, but he insisted on using the best materials to build the most beautiful and strongest city. There is no room for negotiation. You Say, what can I do?"

If it was someone else, Qin Lian could rely on his status as the city lord and the dean's backing to force the other party to modify the design and replace the materials. Compared with him, the city lord, the Red Dragon King has a higher status in the Sky Academy. If there is a trouble, he will definitely not be able to make trouble against the Red Dragon King.

Since he couldn't make trouble, he simply didn't care about it, and the Red Dragon King could do whatever he wanted.

"If this is the case, won't the construction of the deserted city be abandoned when the funds in the treasury are used up?" The middle-aged man frowned, with a hint of worry in his eyes, "If the dean blames him, the situation will be bad for your lord."

"There's no need to worry about that." Qin Lian suddenly smiled.

The middle-aged man looked at Qin Lian suspiciously.

Qin Lian said: "The Scarlet Dragon King promised me that if the funds in the treasury are not enough, he will make up for the expenses privately until the construction of the deserted city is completed."

"Him?" The middle-aged man asked suspiciously, "Does he have so many barren coins?"

Qin Lian laughed: "Luo Song, you underestimate the financial power of the Red Dragon King! Looking at the entire Zhou Dynasty, no one is richer than him! To be exact, the Thousand Faced Demon Fox, the Red Dragon King, and the Green Winged Eagle King, these three The overlords of the dark abyss are all rich lords! Even those chambers of commerce and even the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty are far less wealthy than them! To build a city, even the Daxing city, the cost is just a drop in the bucket for them. "

Luo Song was frightened, he opened his eyes wide, and said in disbelief, "Are they so rich?"

"The whole Abyss belongs to them, how can they not be rich?" Qin Lian laughed dumbly, "Aside from other things, the tickets they sell for the Abyss every day are enough to build a small city."

Many of the commercial taxes in Tongzhou Prefecture were contributed by Bai Ling, Chilong King and Qingyi Diao King. If it weren't for this, Qin Lian wouldn't have a clear understanding of the financial resources of the three.

Qin Lian came back to his senses, patted Luo Song on the shoulder, and said, "You don't have to worry about the funds. We just need to carefully supervise the carpenters and craftsmen to prevent them from cheating and cheating, and ensure that the deserted city can be completed normally. After all , the dean has been watching, we can't be sloppy for a moment."

Luo Song nodded.

"By the way, how is the matter I told you before?" Qin Lian asked.

"You mean...the rectification of the government soldiers?"

"right."

"According to your request, none of the soldiers in the deserted city have been moved for the time being. Among the soldiers from other places below Qixuan, they have all been dismissed, and those who caused troubles have also been driven out. At present, there are only 319 soldiers left from other places. One hundred and twelve people, sixty-three people from Jinhua City, forty-five people from Zizhou City, thirty-six people from Qingyang Ancient City, twenty-one people from Yancheng City, eighteen people from Zhanshui City, sixteen people from Wushan City, Wushuang There are eight people in the city, and there are not a single soldier left in the remaining cities."

Qin Lian was taken aback, and said in surprise, "Not one left?"

Luo Song smiled wryly and said: "Those cities are worse than our deserted city. The strongest soldier is only at the sixth stage, and even the city masters only have the seventh stage and the eighth stage." The deserted city is Tongzhou There are relatively backward and weaker cities in the prefecture, but Luo Song never expected that there are cities that are more backward and weaker than the deserted city.

"I thought that I, the owner of the deserted city, was already useless enough. Unexpectedly..." Qin Lian shook his head and sighed.

Luo Song hesitated for a moment, and said, "My lord, will we be too impulsive if we lay off so many soldiers at once? There is no way to maintain order in Tongzhou Prefecture with only a few hundred people. Moreover, the remaining few hundred people, It's also a panic, maybe I will retire from the army on my own initiative..."

Tongzhou Prefecture originally had 80,000 government soldiers, but in just a few days, they were laid off to only more than 300 people.

80,000 vs. 300, such a huge difference in the number of people, it is hard to imagine!

Fortunately, the 300 people left behind are all elites above Qixuan level 7, and belong to the real backbone of the government soldiers!

Most of the soldiers who were eliminated were just pretending, and no matter what their character was, their strength alone could not meet Qin Lian's request.

Qin Lian stared: "They dare!"

Volunteering to leave the army before the prescribed number of years will be regarded as a deserter. Such a person will be ridiculed no matter where he goes.

Luo Song did not refute anything, the possibility of this is really very small, but, more than 300 soldiers, it is indeed impossible to maintain order in Tongzhou Prefecture, there are several cities, and even only the city lord and a bare-handed commander are left, which seems very embarrassing, continue If this continues, the soldiers may not be discharged, but the city lord will run away first.

"Soldiers are more expensive than expensive." Qin Lian said lightly: "You let them stabilize first, and within three days at most, new soldiers will report to the major cities."

Luo Song worried: "Is three days too short? You can't recruit many soldiers in this amount of time. What's more, the city lord, you have such high requirements for soldiers..."

People in this world generally have a kind of thinking that "a good man should not be a soldier, and a good iron will not be nailed". Unless it is really difficult to get along, few people are willing to take the initiative to serve as a soldier.

No matter where it is, recruiting soldiers is an extremely difficult job. Some cities even recruit less than a hundred soldiers a year. In view of this situation, the requirements for recruiting soldiers in each city are very low, as long as you cultivate your true strength That's enough. For other aspects, there are almost no requirements, because there is no choice at all.

Therefore, Luo Song's worry is not unreasonable.

"Have you not read the settlement announcement I just gave you?" Qin Lian smiled mysteriously.

"Uh, I haven't had time to watch it yet." Luo Song said honestly.

"Hehe, when you read it, you will understand why I am so confident." Qin Lian smiled slightly, "I am not worried about recruiting soldiers at all. On the contrary, I am not afraid of being dissatisfied, but I am afraid that there are too many people and it is difficult to choose .”
