Yinyang City hasn't been so lively for a long time.

Even when Zhao Langjiang was the city lord, although the people of Yinyang admired him, they still questioned the ability of the city lord to manage the city.

After half a year, the new policies of Yinyang City and the construction of Stone City have revived the city, and even the other eighteen cities have benefited a lot. The prosperous scenery of Yinyang City has reappeared, and the people have truly supported this foreign city lord.

The Yinyang in the Li Xiancheng era is completely incomparable to the Yinyang today. People are still those people, Chai Gongwang’s staff office and Li Xianzhong’s white horse righteousness, but the weather and vitality presented by the entire city are completely different.

Zhao Langjiang also knew very well that if we wanted to develop Yinyang, population was the top priority under the premise of stability. Whether it was the new population or the foreign population, people could be kept. We would rather not make money than collect taxes. Only by leaving people and making these people profitable can this city have the vitality of sustainable development. The efforts over the past six months have not been in vain. The population of Yinyang City has reached 150,000, an increase of one-third in the past six months.

The population has increased, and the next step is to create employment. Whether it is the Tianci Zhibi or the banquet of Zhao Tianci, the merchant families in Jiangnan and Shanxi have been brought to Yinyang through their trade to drive employment for these new populations.

Qinglongfang, the long street in front of the city lord's mansion is very lively. From beginning to end, it stretches for three or four miles, with benches and long tables on both sides of the road to entertain people who come to congratulate. Next to it is a wooden iron pot, and pigs, cows, sheep are sent from Yinyang Twenty City, either roasted, roasted or stewed, with the aroma everywhere.

On the only way to the long street, goods from the Central Plains, Western Regions, Western Chu, and Northern Zhou dynasties were so cheap that they made people drool and their willpower was slightly weak. I am afraid that before I could reach the city lord's mansion, my money bag was already spent.

Chai Gong was familiar with the celebration of the banquet, but this was the first time he saw this specification and practice. Zhao Langjiang handed over the full power of the matter to him. He was very dedicated to his work. Although there were some flaws, there was no trouble in maintaining order.

It was dawn, and a large number of people had gathered here. From a distance, a couplet more than ten feet tall was seen hanging on the mast temporarily erected outside the city lord's mansion.

The heavenly official gave blessings, a huge sum of money, and made honored guests from all directions.

Everything is renewed, twenty cities are welcome to guests from all over the world.

This banquet was celebrated together with the city, and the VIP seats were reluctant to leave. Whether it was the 20th city lord of Yinyang, the elders of famous families, the thieves of the green forest, or the ordinary people, they all celebrated the arrival of the young master of heaven on the long tables and benches on this long street.

Near noon, Chai Gongwang was at the gate of the city lord's mansion, and good news kept coming from people. The cargo transaction volume on the other streets had reached 50,000 taels, 100,000 taels, etc. As the guests gradually entered the seat, the scene became lively.

Zhao Langjiang took Xiao Jinyan and Li Qingcheng to the market early in the morning. Compared with lunch banquets, he was more concerned about the trade situation here.

Although Zhao Langjiang has high martial arts skills, he has recently risen and has no master sect. He can only be considered half a person in the world. Many people in the world have only heard of their reputations but have not seen them. Fortunately, Li Qingcheng and Xiao Jinyan know many people, and they have also recommended them one by one.

Xuanmiao, one of the four elders of Shaolin, Wudang Deputy Chief Wu Lizi came together, followed by a group of disciples and collided with the three of them.

Xiao Jinyan shouted: "Master Xuanmiao, Senior Wuliangzi!"

After hearing this, the two came over to say hello. After introducing each other, Zhao Langjiang clasped his fists and said, "I have met Master Xuanmiao, Senior Wuliangzi!"

Master Xuanmiao said, "I have heard of Lord Zhao's deeds for a long time. When I see you today, it's really a heroic boy!"

Wu Quanzi also said, "Yes, as the saying goes, the Yangtze River pushes the previous waves, and each generation is more than the other. In a few years, I am afraid no one in the world will remember us!

”

Xiao Jinyan smiled and said, "How could it be that when you were drinking in Huashan, the naked sword dance you were drunk after you were still uploaded to the world as a beautiful story!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Wudang disciples were blushed and full of shame. At the Huashan Wulin gathering, Xiao Jinyan drunk Wu Quanzi and encouraged him to take off his clothes. He had a sword dance, which spread throughout the world. Wu Quanzi himself was a person who despised the world and was unruly. He felt that nothing was wrong, but Wu Dang disciples couldn't raise their heads in the world for a while. Today, Xiao Jinyan's old story was re-reported, which made these disciples very angry.

Wuliangzi laughed, "I didn't dance very much that day, so I invented a few more sword moves that combine two swords. In a moment, you and I will get drunk again! How about it!"

The disciples shouted "No!" Wuliangzi ignored them, patted Zhao Langjiang's shoulder, and secretly brought his true energy. He had heard of Zhao Langjiang's name for a long time, and he felt itchy in his heart and couldn't help but test it.

Zhao Langjiang remained silent and used his domineering power to attract the true energy to rebound. Wu Quanzi suddenly shrank his hand and said, "Take it!"

Zhao Langjiang smiled slightly, "Exceeded!"

"I have to ask for more wine in a while!"

"As long as there is a sword dance to cheer you up, I will bring you a jar of wine!"

The two laughed.

Xuanmiao saw Wuliangzi's hand trembling behind him. He was secretly shocked. Wuliangzi was also the top five Tongxiang master in Wudang. He secretly competed with Zhao Langjiang and did not gain any advantage. Such skills, killing Li Xiancheng and Tuoba Niu people should not be a shortcut.

Seeing that the luncheon was approaching, everyone walked to the city lord's mansion together. Zhao Langjiang was going to meet a lot today. He took this opportunity to go straight to the point and talked about cooperation with the Shaolin and Wudang factions.

Shaolin and Wudang are famous sects, and the world's martial arts world is the first to be the first. The two major sects are managed by lay disciples from the outer courtyards. Especially the two major sects have a long history and the imperial government rewarded a lot of land. However, Yinyang City cannot afford the grain. He wanted to take this opportunity to cooperate with Shaolin and Wudang to build a granary and open a grain shop in Yinyang.

The conditions given by Zhao Langjiang were also quite generous, with a price of 30% higher than the price of food in the Central Plains. The only condition was that except for the person in charge, the rest of the people must be local people in Yinyang.

There are several main sources of income from Shaolin and Wudang.

First, the government rewards are rewarded by the two sects with a long history. The imperial court allocates silver every year to maintain basic expenses; second, the disciples give back, and some of the disciples who make achievements after they become masters will donate them; third, the believers worship incense, although these silver is not expensive, they are mainly used for repairs; fourth, the disputes between the rivers and lakes are regulated, and the gifts of each sect can barely maintain expenses.

The two major sects have been maintained for hundreds of years, practicing, practicing martial arts, and practicing disciples. The focus of real economic income is the industries under the sect. Among them, the land enshrined by the government is as many as thousands of hectares and no tax is required, so the grain produced every year is mostly sold at a price lower than the market.

They came here this time for this matter. Even if the food is not profitable, if they can open up the trade route, they will purchase foreign goods such as fur, agate, spices, etc. from Yinyang City on their way back, and they can generate income when they go back. Zhao Langjiang proposed the conditions far exceeding their expectations, so it will be agreed soon.

Xiao Jinyan sighed, "Both are monks and practitioners. They used to be just drinking, but they didn't expect that both of them were so economical."

Wu Quanzi Tao, "Shaolin Wudang, there are many disciples. Including the outer disciples and industries, there are more than 10,000 people. There are less than 200 people who truly practice martial arts. Even if they want to practice, they cannot practice hungry, right?"

Zhao Langjiang was in a happy mood and laughed, "Since the two masters are so happy, I, Zhao Langjiang, are not stingy people. Friends who are traveling with me, Zhao Langjiang, will give you a discount of 100 taels in your personal name.

The coupons can be used on all four streets. After the banquet, you can buy them as you like!”

Everyone thanked each other, but no one noticed a line of small words written in the corner, "Five 50 words are given for every 400 words, and only one piece is used for each sentence."

As soon as he entered the long street, he heard someone arguing not far away. Li Bufan was arguing with an elderly man, blushing and excited.

That year, the elder saw Xuanmiao, Wuliangzi, and said, "Master Xuanmiao, Brother Wuliangzi, you two come to judge the truth!"

Wu Quantu frowned and asked, "Are you?"

The elder said, "I am Li Wutong, the leader of the Liuye Gang of Qingzhou Prefecture. At the last Huashan party, I even toasted you with a glass of wine!"

Wuliangzi touched his head, "I don't have a good memory. Don't blame me!"

Zhao Langjiang went over, "What's going on?"

Li Wutong said, "Who are you?"

"I'm going down to Zhao Langjiang."

Li Wutong said, "So you are the Lord of Yinyang City. I didn't expect that you are young and have a good attitude, and you are a dignified lord of a city..."

Zhao Langjiang interrupted, "Talk about it directly."

Li Wutong was robbed of white hair, and her face showed displeasure, "I'm here to ask for guilt. As the lord of Yinyang City, you are a bit biased in the hospitality. Fortunately, the Liuye Gang is a well-known faction in the world. It is incomparable to Shaolin Wudang, and we can't sit at the bottom of the wind and drink with these indifferent sects. Qingzhou Prefecture is bigger than Yinyang, right? I'll go to Qingzhou Prefecture to do business, and Qingzhou Prefecture will also be arrogant and accompany you throughout the journey. You have been waiting for our heroes in the world, so you have also neglected."

Zhao Langjiang glanced at Li Bufan and thought to himself that Li Bufan was still young. If Mr. Chai hoped that he would be able to handle such things properly, but at this moment, Li Bufan was criticized. He was half of his disciple. If he could not find it, it would be difficult to be a human being in the future.

Zhao Langjiang said, "Today's lunch, there is no high or low, no guest of honor, just sit and eat and drink. Not only the brothers in the world, but you can see that the other lords of Yinyang also sit down at will."

Li Wutong was quite arrogant. He traveled here thousands of miles, even if he could not compare to Shaolin Wudang, at least he went to the mansion to drink bars. Unexpectedly, this was the arrangement, and he couldn't help but tease, "It's really a thousand miles to run errands. It's better to drink cold water at home. If I had known this, it would be better to buy a donkey meat in the Central Plains to cook it."

Zhao Langjiang said, "Then please let yourself go."

Seeing that Zhao Langjiang ignored him, Li Wutong couldn't help but get angry and said to the rest of the world, "Dear friends in the world, Zhao Langjiang ignores our people in the world and treats them differently. In my opinion, we should stop eating this meal, go back to our homes and find our mothers!"

The words just now made everyone complain about Li Wutong. As soon as he incited him, someone immediately said, "We are not in the midst of the rambling sect. Come and congratulate Lord Zhao and ask for a cup of Yinyang Chishui wine to drink. Don't join in the fun with Lord Li."

Li Wutong was squeezed and her face was very embarrassed.

Zhao Langjiang said, "We have a VIP banquet. If you want to go to the mansion to have a meal, it's not impossible, but there are conditions."

“What conditions?”

Zhao Langjiang pulled Li Bufan in front of him and said loudly, "This is my apprentice. You either apologize to him or defeat him in martial arts competition. Otherwise, you will go back wherever you come. Yinyang City is not welcome."

When Li Wutong saw that Li Bufan was less than 20 years old, she held a knife around her waist and looked down on her heart. Even if you were to practice the knife, what level could you do? He had been immersed in the sword art for forty years and now he has achieved some success. He heard that Zhao Langjiang's sword technique is the best, so he was already unhappy. Now that he met Li Bufan, he happened to teach a lesson and beat his apprentice. How could the master not show up?

Thinking of this, Li Wutong said, "Okay, I'll give you three moves!"
