Chapter 2392: Mosasaur, Steed, and Bull

Jiang Fan was also surprised when he first heard the news, especially when he didn't expect that Chai Lao's strongest skill was actually a strange skill. Suddenly, he remembered that his son Bing Yuchi also swallowed clouds and spit out mist, and he had been staying in Southern Xinjiang. He didn't find it strange. After asking, he understood that Chai Mingyuan had come to the imperial court from afar because he was resentful of Taohua Valley and was suppressed by Xiang Yinghong's master Xiangliu. However, Taohua Valley had many people and Chai Mingyuan was alone and could not do anything. He was forced to stay away from Southern Xinjiang.

The most unexpected thing was that Chai Mingyuan's Wu Suo Jiang Tian and Pei Ge Lao's Three Thousand Weak Waters were perfectly matched. The tacit understanding of martial arts finally made the two people's life and death intertwined.

As for Liu Laokou, who was good at calculating, Jiang Fan thought it was very appropriate for him to be in charge of the city lieutenant. In fact, Liu Laokou was the literary descendant next to Pei Shiju, and his father was once called the stingy man. But no one knew that Liu Laokou's martial arts skills were still better than Chai Lao.

Liu Laokou was eighty years old, which was not considered old and feeble for the strong people in this world. He had a deeper relationship with Pei Ge Lao, as his ancestors and father were both the general managers of the Pei family. However, the real martial arts masters were still his generation. Pei Shiju was determined to train his own people for the future, so he found many martial arts secrets for him to practice. However, Liu Laokou was born to love money, especially financial management, and finally realized a unique and wonderful martial arts - the method of increasing income and reducing expenditure.

Jiang Fan was confused when he first heard about it, but later he learned from the explanation that the so-called method of increasing income and reducing expenditure has a lot of tricks. Increasing income can be used to gather the power of others to attack the enemy, and reducing expenditure can limit the opponent's martial arts cultivation and forcefully lower the opponent's realm.

It can't be said to be wonderful, it's just weird.

For everyone present, no one knew the origins of Liu Laokou and Chai Lao, but they also did not hide their cultivation. Both of them were in the Great Saint Realm.

Pei Yunjin and the aura of these two finally made everyone truly understand that King Xiaoyao not only values ​​beauty, but also values ​​Canglong City, the leader of the twelve cities.

But they don't know that this is not all. Jiang Fan also sent a team to support.

This team is composed of a Lishan teacher leading ten first-year Lishan students.

This teacher is Zhang Zhiling's old friend. Jiang Fan is not unfamiliar with his name. At the beginning, the master retired under his name. Yes, it was the real Qingjiang Old Man. He did not die. Not only did he not die, but he was also the first person to go against the sky developed by Zhang Zhiling. It was just that later, because he wanted to help Zhang Zhiling, he pretended to die to come out of the mountain and enter the world.

And those ten students are all the best among the five hundred orphans. They are proficient in Lishan knowledge, each with their own strengths, and have at least experienced two years of internship experience. They can definitely assist Pei Yunjin perfectly in governing the city.

At the beginning of Canglong City, the next is Hecang County City, which was renamed Junma City. There are 50,000 elite cavalry led by Shentu Li stationed here. Junma City got its name from this.

Today, this city has 80,000 households and 320,000 people, not including 50,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry. In terms of scale and population alone, Junma City is the largest city among the twelve cities.

Jiang Fan did not appoint a new city lord, but appointed Shentu Li to serve concurrently. However, the city lieutenant was appointed by the students of Mount Li, and ten students were also assigned to important positions.

After that, it was the turn of the cities built by the ten outstanding students of Mount Li.

In terms of the system, the senior managers are similar, all of which are a city lord, a city lieutenant, and a city guard.

However, the city lords are all recommended by the ten students themselves. The city lieutenants or city guards are appointed by themselves according to the situation, and those who are insufficient will be supplemented by the students of Mount Li. Similarly, each city is equipped with ten students to assist.

There is another thing worth mentioning. The list of talents recruited by Jiang Fan still exists. Many talents have been recruited in these years. Some of them stayed in Yuzhou and are now scattered in various cities.

But these ten cities have their own characteristics.

First is the eldest brother, Baili Changfeng.

Baili Changfeng has a calm personality and meticulous mind. His city is also the most conventional, but also the most exquisite.

Baili Changfeng did not take a penny at the beginning, and built this city entirely by his own ability.

He followed the instructions of the head of the mountain and never revealed his identity as a student of Xiaoyao, but he knew how to use relationships and connections very well. First, Baili Changfeng asked to see Shentu Li as the descendant of the famous scholar Baili Xi, and pointed out to him that there was the Zhenxi Palace to the north of Hecang County, but the south, that is, the central plain of Yuzhou, lacked support. After obtaining Shentu Li's approval, he expressed his desire to build a big city on the central plain.

It is conceivable that Shentu Li was very shocked, but Baili Changfeng actually persuaded him in an orderly manner.

After obtaining Shentu Li's support, he immediately borrowed the name of Shentu to meet several big families in Yuzhou who were shocked by Jiang Fan at the beginning.

In the end, he cleverly used the pressure brought by Jiang Fan and the temptation of becoming an ally of the Shentu family to successfully persuade the three big families to become partners. Then he worked together to recruit thirteen forces of all sizes and jointly created the third city, Niu City, which is second only to Junma City in size.

This city is completely in line with Baili Changfeng's steady and solid style. The whole city is built with large blue bricks and purchased Lishan cement. The city wall is twice as wide as the general city wall and is extremely solid and reliable. It fits the name of Niu City very well.

Niu City is a square city that can accommodate 200,000 people, and now it has more than 100,000. The garrison has reached the upper limit of the total population ratio, 20,000 people, including 5,000 Yuzhou troops sent by the palace as elites.

But Baili Changfeng also adopted the system of farming. When the population is full, 50,000 soldiers can be temporarily deployed in wartime. In other words, whenever needed, the city's combat power can reach 80,000.

For the city lord, he chose the rotation system of the three major families. The first term was elected by three parties, and then every five years, perfectly balancing the expectations of each family.

At present, the first city lord is the largest chaebol in Yuzhou, Liu family, who was elected by the name of Liu Xian. Outsiders don't know that this Liu Xian is someone Baili Changfeng really trusts. Baili Changfeng spent a lot of time on this person. Now, Liu Xian has completely cut off his relationship with the Qin State under his series of operations. As for five years later, hehe, Jiang Fan is convinced that with Baili Changfeng's ability, the two major families will basically have no chance unless they have special performance.

The position of the city lieutenant is held by Baili Changfeng himself.

But the most unexpected thing is that the city guard is actually named Baili Yao.

That's right, it was the son of Baili Xi that Meng Chanjuan had mentioned, and the father of Baili Changfeng.

Later, Jiang Fan learned that Meng Chanjuan had always been thinking about her five hundred orphans and had never stopped looking for their families. Two years ago, she accidentally found Baili Yao. This successor of the Gentleman Sword went to a secluded place to practice, and after leaving the mountain, he actually served as an official in the State of Wei, and was also a Confucian general with great military exploits and no record of defeat.

Baili Changfeng immediately made a secret appointment with his father. After several conversations and communications, Baili Yao resolutely gave up his official position in the State of Wei and came to Yuzhou with his son overnight. From then on, he served as the garrison of Niu City.

Looking at Niu City, it is the most complete and most normal city among the cities built by the ten heroes.
