Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Zhou Xu never doubted Silk's qualifications.

Although it was a little slower than he expected, it was a good thing after all.

Zhou Xu, who had reacted, was not stingy with his reward. Silk's successful breakthrough gave them another strong man at the level of Bailian Realm, which was another unexpected surprise.

At the same time, for Zhou Xu, the ruler, this was undoubtedly a good sign. In the future, there will be more and more extraordinary mages and Bailian Realm warriors in their Great Zhou! The internal strength will naturally become stronger and stronger!

With this mentality, Zhou Xu, who had finished breakfast, started a new day of exploration with full energy.

However, what they were going to explore next was no longer this Qingshui Mountain, but to take a boat to explore the small islands on the Qingshui Lake.

Those small islands were really small. Even the largest one basically took two or three hours to go around the island. The smallest one was estimated to be only four or five hundred square meters in area.

Of course, this exploration work is mainly based on carpet search, so it actually takes more time to explore a lake island.

But even so, in half a month, the group led by Zhou Xu almost completed the exploration of all the small lake islands on Qingshui Lake.

Facts have proved that the time Zhou Xu estimated for himself at that time was quite accurate. It took almost a month to complete this exploration.

At this moment, standing on the deck of the bow, looking at the Black Moon City Port that was constantly enlarging in his field of vision, Zhou Xu's heart was really full of emotion.

Calculating the time, he has not been back for a long time.

In this process, he couldn't help but notice the two huge water wheels not far from Black Moon City.

In order to divert water into the canal and irrigate the farmland outside Black Moon City, he specially asked Zhuang Mengdie to make a water wheel.

Later, with the continuous development of Black Moon City, the area of ​​​​fields is also becoming larger and larger, and the irrigation pressure is also increasing.

About two years ago, through a document report, Black Moon City applied to him to upgrade the water wheel.

Zhou Xu didn't think much about it and approved it directly.

Now the people in the relevant departments have put all the knowledge and technology he taught them into practice. After mastering the principle of the waterwheel, they directly built a large composite waterwheel, which greatly improved the water diversion efficiency here.

In addition, the lakeside area has also changed greatly.

It was basically empty in the past, but now, not only has a dock and a port been built, but also a small market not far away.

That is where the fishermen sell fish.

Of course, other vendors will come from time to time to sell other things.

At the same time, a relatively simple house building was specially built near the market.

Zhang Xiaoshan mentioned the construction of this area in his previous report, and it was also approved by Zhou Xu.

That is to build a fishing village and a fish market outside the Black Moon City, near the lakeside area, for the fishermen to live and do some simple business.

After all, the fishermen have to run here from the city early in the morning to fish, and run back when it gets dark, which is also a time-consuming and laborious job.

Now that there is this small fishing village outside the city, this problem can basically be solved.

Standing on the deck of the bow, Zhou Xu could feel the bustle of the fish market just by looking from afar, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

"This area has developed well."

From the perspective of a developer, what could make him happier than seeing the results of his own development?

While his thoughts were flying, the ship had already docked. As the head of the administrative department of Black Moon City, Zhang Xiaoshan, who received the news in advance, had been waiting below.

"I, your humble servant Zhang Xiaoshan, pay my respects to His Majesty!"

"No need to be polite!"

Looking at Zhang Xiaoshan, Zhou Xu reached out and patted his shoulder with a smile on his face.

"You have worked hard during my absence."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan's nose was inexplicably sour. As the scale of Black Moon City's development became larger and larger, he was under great pressure, and only he knew it in his heart.

"It's not hard to serve His Majesty!"

"Let's go and see how Black Moon City is developing now!"

As he spoke, Zhou Xu got on the carriage and rushed towards Black Moon City.

Before he got close, Zhou Xu, who was leaning against the window, had already seen the towering city wall!

In recent years, the development of Black Moon City has not stopped. It can even be said to be the fastest-growing city here.

Zhou Xu was in the palace of Xianyang City at the time. Through remote decision-making, while building a ten-meter wall for Black Moon City, he also directly merged Salt Lake City into Black Moon City, making it a district inside Black Moon City.

The distance between Salt Lake City and Black Moon City was not far.

In those years, with the continuous expansion and development of the two cities, it was not an exaggeration to say that the two cities were directly adjacent to each other.

It has come to this point. What's the point of dividing them into two cities?

Not to mention that Zhou Xu had long intended to merge the two cities, and now this matter has been thoroughly implemented.

The city gates are open during the day to facilitate people's entry and exit, and a team of soldiers is stationed at the gate for routine inspections.

During this process, Zhang Xiaoshan's deputy had undoubtedly already dealt with the inspection issues, and they went straight into the city without any obstacles.

"Xiaoshan, why don't we get off the car and take a walk?"

Obviously, Zhou Xu wanted to do the inspection work at the same time.

Although the specific development of Black Moon City in recent years was remotely commanded by him, he had not seen it with his own eyes after all. Zhou Xu obviously wanted to take a good look at it now.

For this proposal, Zhang Xiaoshan did not even think about it and directly agreed.

"Your Majesty has such a refined interest, and I will accompany you to the end."

Hearing this, Zhou Xu smiled, and then turned to look at Silk.

"Silk, you take Qiansui and everyone to settle down first, and Xiaoshan and I will go around the city."

The main reason is that the presence of Silk and Qiansui is too eye-catching. With them following him, he can't keep a low profile even if he wants to.

"Yes!"

Silk took the order directly.

Although he is the head of the personal guards, he is actually not worried about the safety of their majesty at all.

What a joke? Their Majesty is an extraordinary wizard, and his strength is there. Who in this Black Moon City can endanger his safety?

The only occasion where their personal army is needed is probably when their Majesty wants to lead the army in person. Their main job on weekdays, to put it bluntly, is to solve problems for their Majesty and not let their Majesty be distracted by those trivial matters.
