Chapter 175 The First Musketeer Team of the Song Dynasty

In Linhai Village, the secret training camp of the group training camp, Zhao Xing was taking Yuan Yeping and Cheng Shuang to inspect the newly recruited musket team.

After three months of the demon subjugation transformation handed over by Zhao Xing, the court finally completed the finalization work, but the fixed muskets needed to be practiced, and it was not appropriate to complete this work in the capital. Because the Jinzhou Army of Liao Kingdom had encountered such a weapon attack, the court was worried that it would be practiced in the capital. When the Liao people knew about it, they believed that the Jinzhou incident was caused by the imperial court in private, so the court could not explain it clearly.

It is also a headache to experiment with this secret weapon outside the court. Who can guarantee that this weapon will not be leaked? The Privy Council is searching all over the world - it can only be Zhao Xing. First, he has something to do with Zhang Dun. The Privy Council officials left by Zhang Dun fully recommend Zhao Xing, believing that there is no need to worry about confidentiality when operating this matter secretly in Zhao Xing. Second: Mizhou is high and the emperor is far away, and the envoys of the Liao people cannot find it, so there is no need to worry about the leak; Third: Originally, this firearm was found from overseas, and Mizhou was originally located by the sea, not far from Jinzhou where the incident occurred. Even if the Liao people found this firearm, they could find reasons to explain.

The most important thing is that almost all sulfur in the imperial court is imported from Japan, and Zhao Xing has also developed the Ryukyu Islands with the largest reserves of saltpeter in Asia in recent years, and has imported sulfur saltpeter with extremely high purity and good quality to the Song Dynasty under the name of the Japanese. Mizhou just happened to be a trading port with Japan, and was trained in Mizhou, without worrying about the supply and transportation of gunpowder...

After all the situations were added together, the court finally decided: the new musket team commissioned Mizhou to train and form a secret, first check the actual combat effectiveness of the musket, and then the court decided on the next action.

Unfortunately, the inertia of history is so huge. Zhao Xing tried his best to design his musket according to the optimal plan. The things he handed over to the court's secret agents were originally something he had entered and verified repeatedly, but the musket samples sent by the court were still made of bamboo poles as gun barrels - exactly the same as the sudden musket a hundred years later.

This kind of storm has a nickname among the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, called the "Storm Pear Blossom Gun", saying that the flames it sprayed out were like pear blossoms blooming, and the flames sprayed towards the enemy like rainstorms... Later, modern people "represented" the people of the Song Dynasty. In the legend, they added a name to it, called "Yang Family (Storm Pear Blossom Gun", which means: this thing is the unique and peerless killing skill of the Yang family generals.

Now, Zhao Xing already knew that "Yang Family Generals" was a novel. There was no Tianbo Yang Mansion in the Song Dynasty at all. He was thinking about giving this set of peerless gunshots a better name - he couldn't call it "Yang Family Gun".

Is it called "Zhao Family Gun"?

The official of the Office of the Ministry of War sent by the Ministry of War was also an acquaintance. The man who took Zhao Xing's musket last time - Sun Cong Sun Zishu. He stood in a hidden corner, followed by a group of Privy Council officials, observing the training of the army attentively. Seeing Zhao Xing appear, Sun Cong made a hidden gesture, signaling Zhao Xing to ignore him and just do his own thing. Zhao Xing nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards the training team.

The bamboo pole musket was just a prototype. The Privy Council issued a pattern and a sample, and then asked the Mizhou delegation to complete the copying of its own capital. However, the musket needed gunpowder but was completely controlled by the court. In this way, the court was also worried about the leaking of secrets...

However, although the inertia of history is great, Zhao Xing's stubbornness is stronger - the copper musket was a technology from hundreds of years ago, and the technical threshold is not high. Under Zhao Xing's conscious guidance, the storm gun produced by the Duzuoyuan in Mizhou was exactly the same as the original version given by Zhao Xing to Sun Cong. The barrel was cast in bronze from beginning to end.

The imperial court used bamboo tubes to make gun barrels because bamboo tubes were cheap and could reduce the cost. Furthermore, the imperial court did not have enough purity of gunpowder, and using bamboo tube muskets could just reduce the requirements for gunpowder. In addition, bamboo tube muskets are disposable items, similar to modern colored ball tubes. If this weapon is handed over to foreign troops for training, the imperial court can rest assured.

When Sun Cong first saw the version that Zhao Xing took out, he was shocked and immediately opposed it strongly because the gun was too similar to what he took back, which would cause bad associations. As soon as Sun Cong insisted, Zhao Xing compromised. His compromise plan was: the copper tube continued to maintain the shape of the bamboo joints, and the links on the bamboo joints were decorated with copper hoops, which happened to use these copper hoops to prevent the explosion of the chamber.

Regarding the cost issue, Zhao Xing also had an argument. He said: Mizhou used the production money allocated by the imperial court to buy some silk, tea, and ceramics from the local area, and sold it to Japan, and directly exchanged tens of thousands of kilograms of copper for back. Then he directly used copper to make the musket rods, so the cost gap between the newly made copper raid musket and the imperial court samples is not large, and it can be reused.

Sun Cong finally surrendered because his original gun sample was obtained from Zhao Xing. If the two sides had an unhappy relationship, the truth of the matter was revealed, and it was him who was not happy. People would not believe that Zhao Xing was unwilling to stand up and wanted to give up this merit. They would only accuse him of being greedy for Zhao Xing's contribution. If Zhao Xing refused to admit it, if he said it, people would only doubt his character.

Today is the first large-scale live-fire training after the new gun is completed. When Zhao Xing moved to the front of the team, he had already made up his mind: Forget it, this thing is called the "Rain Rain Pear Blossom Gun". As for whether it will be called the "Yang Family Gun" in the future, let others go.

After the three-way drum passed, the central army lined up to perform exercises. Zhao Xing cleared his throat and said loudly: "Now, what I teach you is the world's number one peerless killing skill. Once a shot is shot, the one who hits will be killed. This kind of martial art is really a necessary means for traveling at home and killing people to silence them.

This thing is not complicated, with a total of seven tricks. Once you learn it, you will be the best martial arts in the world... Well, let's not say more. Listen, the first trick comes, it is called: "Hold it."

Look, stretch your arms flat, and push the muzzle of this tube to others and don’t hit yourself. Hold the barrel flat, this is the first move: hold it.

After the first move, let’s go to the second killer move of the Rainy Peach Blossom, called: ‘Knock’ - what to knock, kick the flint scythe, lit the flint scythe... By the way, the next third move is called ‘Lighting’, lit the flint rope, and the second move ends perfectly.

The fourth move is to "stretch" and you must stretch the gun out to others. Remember, I will repeat it again: Never shoot the gun at yourself. But if you insist on hitting yourself, I don't object. Please remember in private, please call Dutou before the trial, please ask him to pick up the gun after you die. It is the property of the court and you cannot throw it away.

Well, now the fuse is finished, and it’s time to move forward. The next move is called “squirting”, and use the flames sprayed from the musket to spray the enemy...

The next two moves are continuous movements. I said one after another: The gunpowder in the gun is sprayed, and the gun barrel is so hot that it cannot be grasped. What should I do? One move is called "Top" - since I can't grasp the barrel, why should I catch it? Just throw it away. After throwing it, the unstoppable enemy rushed over, so the last move is called "Run" - turn around and run towards my own military formation.

This set of "Storm Pear Blossom Gun" is a complete set of ultimate skills. Let's repeat its seven ultimate skills. This is the kind of secret skill passed down by family, not by son-in-law. Everyone must treasure it well and keep it for your life. Come on, follow me to repeat it: "hold it", "knock it", "light it", "stretch it", "squirt it", "spray it", "spray it", "spook it", "run it"!"

After demonstrating the seven ultimate skills in detail, Zhao Xing explained why it was seven moves, not other numbers - because there are Big Dipper in the sky. Therefore, the seven moves can absorb the power of Big Dipper and bombard the enemy with the rushing force of the Tianma meteor, like the seven stars falling to the ground; it can also absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, use the power of the stars in the sky to increase its momentum and attack the enemy's arrogance. So that the person who was shot was shot was thrown into the eighteenth level hell and would never be reborn...

After the interpretation of this nonsense, the newly selected musketeers suddenly became imposing. They all felt that their waists were no longer sore and their legs were no longer hurt. Just like they had just replenished calcium, they felt that they were the golden armor god in the world, with great power to destroy the world, and every pore in their bodies exuded divine power...

Zhao Xing waved his hand, and the first row of musket soldiers came out of the lineup, lying in front of the bunker, crackling and lit the fire scythe, lit the rope - the seven sure-fire moves of the rainy pear blossom gun were like a demonstration, a roar of firecrackers was roaring, and a white smoke covered the bunker. Zhao Xing's heavy cough sounded from the smoke. He looked like a new year's kitchen master, jumping out of the smoke with a black head and gray face. While coughing violently, he looked at his soldiers majestic, and cursing: "Who is this recipe? Oh my God, what mustard and arsenic are mixed into it? It's a failure!"

The early raid musket was a large fireworks. The iron sand mixed in it was not assembled separately, but was mixed into gunpowder as a component of the gunpowder formula. The spraying power of such gunpowder is not high, and the small iron sand sprayed out is no harm to people five or six meters away. It seems that the spy completely forgot to remind the Privy Council of gunpowder granulation. The gunpowder formula offered by Zhao Xing has been changed to something.

Perhaps, it was precisely because the process did not meet the requirements that the Privy Council simply gave up granulation, and therefore, the barrel turned into a bamboo pole...

After Zhao Xing cursed, he was about to grab Sun Cong and roar. When he turned around, he found that when the smoke was thick and smoke rose, the officials of the Privy Council were afraid that the smoke would be poisonous and ran away long ago.

Zhao Xing could not find a partner of abuse, and became angry. He finally endured his anger and trained the musket soldiers for more than ten days, and several musket bombs occurred. Zhao Xing could not bear it anymore, so he simply took advantage of the secret agents' attention and replaced the gunpowder formula again. The musket soldiers also made adjustments. Among them, the one hundred people who were most skilled in operation were trained as muskets, and the four hundred people eliminated were regarded as professional loaders, who were usually responsible for taking care of the muskets' life and logistics, and professional loading during wartime.

Finally, after several rounds of screening, the fixed musket returned to what Zhao Xing thought, which was the early mesh gun: it had a thick stick to support the barrel, and each musket soldier was equipped with five muskets, which were loaded in turn by two loaders to ensure that the muskets could continue to shoot and maintain fire density.

The training of this group of musket soldiers was carried out under extremely secret circumstances. During this period, two things happened. One was that Zhang Dun was re-activated by the court for the contribution of offering muskets. However, Zhang Dun's official edict disappeared mysteriously during the transmission. The court had no choice but to issue a new appointment to Zhang Dun, but Zhang Dun's performance next made Zhao Xing suspect that the official edict was a tampered by Zhang Dun himself.

Zhang Dun first resolutely postponed the appointment of the court - well, since Zhang Dun's reason was to support his father, the court simply appointed Zhang Dun as a local official in his hometown of Suzhou to support his father, but Zhang Dun still refused, and he was still willing to be a rural idle person by promoting his idle job as a palace temple.

The actions of the surveillance personnel sent by the Privy Council also revealed strange things everywhere, which made Zhao Xing sigh that Zhang Dun controlled the Ministry of War for many years and had an unimaginable strength. The officials of the Privy Council had never been to the training ground except for the first time with Sun Cong. However, the secret reports they passed to the peak were sealed, and they always generously sent the manuscripts to Zhao Xing for review. Zhao Xing sometimes changed the other party's report to the outside world without realizing it. Unexpectedly, the next day, Sun Cong actually copied a copy according to Zhao Xing's modification, and then let Zhao Xing read it. When Zhao Xing put the manuscripts into a secret letter, sealed them up, and handed them out in person.

Therefore, the history of muskets was interpreted as: Under the experiment of musketeers, craftsmen from the Mizhou Duzuo Academy continued to improve the musket sample, and finally changed the draft ten times, and found that the current shape was the most suitable, so the final version...

This team of musketeers is composed of new imperial guards. It is included in the sequence of the Mizhou regiment training, but has never been in contact with the Mizhou regiment training and has been in a closed state. When they can all master the musketeers in their hands, they are transferred back to the capital as imperial guards, leaving behind some unqualified loaders. Many musketeers who originally belonged to the Mizhou regiment were pulled away... Of course, this is all a story.

After three or five days of training for musketeers, Zhao Xing had lost his interest in training musketeers. He only came to the training camp every now and then, while he was busy with spring plowing problems everywhere.

Shandong is a province with abundant gold and silver reserves. More than 70% of the national finance in the Song Dynasty were produced in Shandong. In the Song Dynasty, Shandong was rich in gold and silver, so that farmers could turn the ground into gold nuggets. However, the disputes arising from the year also made local officials worried.

During the second year of Yuanyou, there were 137 disputes in Mizhou due to the discovery of gold in the fields - in modern times, similar disputes have been reduced to one or two per year.

Regarding the disputes caused by gold in Mizhou, there is also a famous case. When Wang Anshi was in power, he believed that the disputes caused by picking up gold in the fields should be applicable to civil theft. However, the old party believed that the state implemented gold and silver control. If gold and silver were picked up in his own fields and privately, it was equivalent to stealing state property. It violated the gold and silver control order and should be applicable to robbery, that is, the sentence of death.

Zhao Xing was more inclined to Wang Anshi's view, believing that no matter what, if you find production in your own fields, you will not die. However, the concept of officials in the Song Dynasty was chaotic at this time. Because it involved party disputes, some officials simply turned a blind eye to such disputes. Of course, some officials advocated severe crackdowns and supported neighbors to report each other.

Because there are ambiguities in the upper-level officialdom about this law, in the implementation, the situation in each county depends entirely on local officials. The entire Mizhou was in chaos for this, and Zhao Xing had to travel around the prefectures and counties under Mizhou to put out fires everywhere.

Zhao Xing adopted a strict stick education for such disputes that occurred in the Mizhou Tuanlian: Anyone who came to sue was beaten and beaten until he was unwilling to sue again. After Zhao Xing's education, the group trainees never complained again. They found that if the discoverers discussed privately and reached a satisfactory agreement on the distribution of spoils, it would be the most worry-free thing. Zhao Xing and Zhang Yong above turned a blind eye and ignored them. Not only did they not be beaten, but they would go home with their own money...

After leaving the scope of the group training, Zhao Xing could not control it. He also had to obey the request of local officials and sent the group training to arrest him everywhere. In a few days, the prison camp was filled with villagers who were chasing disputes, which made the group training students very anxious. They all complained privately: "What are you doing? How much less is the cost of spending less? Places frequently gather, and the officials above do not care about it. No matter how big the matter is, it's okay to settle it privately!"

The Mizhou Troupe, who works with a lot of resentment, cannot be provoked. They often confiscate gold nuggets simply and roughly and divide them privately. The criminals beat them back in a mess. As a result, cases in various places were immediately missing...

At the end of spring, Zhao Xing finally got idle. Seeing that Zhao Xing could no longer make any trouble, he asked for Zhao Xing's note and set off to Hangzhou to find the carving master. He went to carve his big Buddha. After the monk Fo Yin left, Zhao Xing remembered that An Sida had been in his mansion for a month.

After a little understanding, Zhao Xing found that An Sida had been living a leisurely life these days. He led three servants to stroll around the countryside every day, observe the customs and customs here, chat with the villagers, and occasionally acted as a doctor to help villagers treat headaches and fevers. He gradually accumulated some small prestige in the countryside.

Zhao Xing asked An Sida to accompany the monk to visit the scenery of Mizhou. The first one to visit was Mata Lake. After enjoying the scenery of Mata Lake, Zhao Xing led him to Jiaoxi County, his jurisdiction.

Jiaoxi County is now busy building. After the spring plowing, Lin Ji hired a large number of people from nearby counties, busy organizing government offices, building schools, building roads, building city walls, and doing a lot of things. He heard from Wang Gong that Zhao Xing's students were good at organizing, but he transferred a lot of people from Zhao Xing.

Lin Ji seemed to be a worrying life. He took all his work on his shoulders, and Zhao Xing became the rubber-head seal on the county. Lin Ji had a notice, and he just kept stamping. The specific work was done by Lin Ji and others.

Standing on the dusty road, Zhao Xing couldn't help but hinted that the other party should be dirty: Although Zhao Xing didn't care much about the amount of money, Lin Ji accepted it alone, which violated the unspoken rules of the officialdom.

"Forty thousand guan, Lord Lin, 40 thousand guan is enough to do a lot of things." Zhao Xing looked at the busy workers and reminded him intentionally or unintentionally: "Mr. Lin, are you still short of money?"

Lin Ji also looked at the group of workers and sighed: "Yes, I thought the money was too much, but after careful calculation, it was far from enough. Just building the city wall requires at least 16,000 guan. The roads built also require this number, as well as official houses, government offices, offices... Jiaoxi newly built, money is needed everywhere? Mr. Zhao see if you can move some money from other places and transfer it to subsidize it temporarily. I have already pasted more than 10,000 guan from the salt farm, but it is not enough..."

As they were talking, a commoner who was in power on the roadside collided with his companions. The two quarreled for a few times and started fighting. Lin Ji hurriedly left Zhao Xing and took the yamen runners to look after the custody.

An Sida didn't say anything. After Lin Ji left, he sighed at Lin Ji's back: "It's worthy of being 'Lin Gongji'. It's not enough to build such a city of 50,000 guan, at least 100,000 guan. Lin Gongji actually had to use 50,000 guan to build a city with 50,000 guan. It's so courageous."

Zhao Xing raised his eyebrows: "What? 'Self-selected Zhu Wu Lin Gongji'? Master An, what's going on?"

It turned out that when Lin Ji was young, he went to Beijing to take the exam and passed by an inn in Caizhou (now Runan, Henan Province). When he was sleeping, he picked up a cloth bag on the bed and opened it and saw hundreds of pearls inside. For safety, Lin Ji kept the pearls in a box.

The next day, Lin Ji asked the owner who had lived in this room last night. The owner replied: It was Zhou Zhongjin, a businessman from Xunyang. Lin Ji told the owner: "This is my old friend. If he comes back to look for him, he can ask him to go to the capital to Yiguandaozhai and ask Lin Ji. Ten thousand! Ten thousand! Don't miss things!"

Before leaving the next day, Lin Ji was still worried. He was afraid that the owner would forget it, so he left a message in the house: "On a certain month and a certain day of a certain year, Lin Ji, Youchuan, had a vacation hall." Soon, Zhou Zhongjin found that he had lost his pearls and hurried back to the inn to search. After listening to the owner's message, he uncovered Lin Ji's notice in the room and rushed to the capital to find Lin Ji. After Lin Ji verified the situation, he returned the pearls as soon as possible.

After that, Zhou Zhongjin took out half of the pearls to repay Lin Ji, but Lin Ji refused to accept it. Zhou Zhongjin was very grateful and donated money to the Buddhist temple and built a temple to pray for Lin Ji. Later generations wrote poems to praise Lin Ji and said: "Lin Ji has never heard of returning the pearls in ancient times, and his heart is not moved. He secretly gave the help of the gods and gods, and he passed the imperial examination and showed his name in one fell swoop."

In other words, the prototype of the idiom "get the money without being ignorant" is Lin Ji. The earliest idiom was "get the pearl without being ignorant", and later evolved into "get the money without being ignorant".

What else can I say to such a person? Zhao Xing originally thought that Lin Ji had privately misled the money he should have given him, but now after listening to An Sida's introduction, he was only admired. When Lin Ji handled the dispute on the roadside and rushed back to Zhao Xing, Zhao Xing had already thought of a countermeasure. He said: "Mr. Lin, there are two ways to solve the urgent problem now."

"There are two ways?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows in shock: "Brother Zhao is worthy of being a capable official. Tell me quickly. I have already thought of all the ways I can think of. I don't know that there are two ways to raise money?"

Zhao Xing raised a finger and said, "First, collect taxes in advance. Although it is time for the young and yellow, the people still have some spare money in their hands. In the past, the county governments collected taxes after autumn, so we changed it to collect taxes in seasons - just like when it comes to businessmen, dividing the taxes that should be paid in one year into each season, so that they can pay taxes according to quarterly..."

Lin Ji interrupted Zhao Xing and said, "It's not appropriate. You also said that this is a time when the people are not in charge. How much money do the people have in their hands and have to survive the spring famine? We are not appropriate to collect taxes from the people."

The reason why the 50,000 guan of money was spent so quickly was because Lin Ji did not recruit any servants. He actually hired the servants to work. The huge labor expenditure sucked the treasury dry out like the sea water. Lin Ji was still very strict and reserved a reserved money in the treasury. In Zhao Xing's opinion, there was no need to keep the money in the treasury, because the money in the treasury was in the hands of the people, and the treasury was empty after the government was out of money, but the money was all in the hands of the people. If you really want to collect taxes, you can still collect it.

However, Lin Ji was unwilling to pre-tax, and Zhao Xing no longer insisted because his previous idea was just a prelude. His real purpose was the second move: "Since that's the case, there is only one way left. We are backed by the Maritime Warehouses. Although the warehouses built by the Maritime Warehouse lasted for more than ten miles, those were targeted at the vassal merchants. Local merchants still had to find shops to display goods. Instead of finding a bunch of people in the east and west, they found a room to open a store by themselves, it would be better to organize them by the government to build a special large market...

County Master, don’t be anxious. We don’t need merchants to pay or the people to go on business trips. The government sets out a vacant land on the ground near the river, allowing them to bid for the purchase of this land, and then build their own shops to facilitate the vassal merchants to come to see the goods and make transactions.

Businessmen naturally know the benefits of a special market. Although wealthy merchants like to buy land themselves and completely possess the property rights of the store, if the government gathers them together, they will also like this large trading place with large traffic and a complete variety... and then, it's their own business!"

Officials in the Song Dynasty did not lack business awareness. Zhao Xing briefly mentioned that Lin Ji was already planning and silent for a moment. He replied: "Mr. Wang Dingguo told me that Lord Zhao was good at building, but now it seems to be true. But I am too busy and I took all such big things. I didn't pay attention to the 'skilled craftsman'. Can you give me a plan? I see if it is feasible."

Do you still have to worry about this kind of city building plan? People who are used to playing electronic games in modern times know the steps of city building plan in the game. Zhao Xing picked up a branch casually and drew the layout of mills (granary), barracks, schools, markets, etc. in the order of the game in the Empire Age, civilization, etc., and then introduced the city planning to Lin Ji.

Zhao Xing didn't know that he had once again accidentally changed history. Originally, Jiaoxi County had no city walls. Because Jiaoxi County was small and lacked labor, it cost huge amounts of money to build the city wall. So Zhonglin accumulated a term and only made the foundation for the city wall. Later officials had no funds and abandoned the city walls.

Jiaoxi County, without a city wall, looks like a beautiful and naked girl. When the Jin soldiers headed south, they rushed to the Mizhou Maritime Warehouse. After the robbery, they massacred the people of Jiaoxi and then burned them with fire, and from then on they turned into ruins...

The city wall painted by Zhao Xing is still a wavy castle based on the terrain. Others design the city, fearing that it is too small to accommodate all the people in the county. Zhao Xing has been to Europe. He knew that a city wall without defense means no city wall, so the Jiaoxi city he designed only covers a very small range. After including the key county governments, markets, barracks, and school buildings, it only covers a small number of residential houses. The rest are left outside the city and independently built a residential area similar to the city town of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

As the city is smaller, it naturally costs less labor. The city wall can be built as high as possible and as strong as possible. After looking at Zhao Xing's drawings, Lin Ji felt Zhao Xing's design intention of saving money. He pointed to the drawings and asked: "Why include the market? It does not include the residential areas of the people."

"Food—" Zhao Xing explained: "Including the market is because there is food in the market. When encountering an enemy siege, the food stored by merchants can allow us to safely survive the food shortage during the siege."

"So, what about the schoolhouse? This schoolhouse is also uninhabited, so it can be set up outside the city."

"It is because it is uninhabited, so it has to be enclosed in the city. Because the empty school buildings can be avoided in the city when the enemy attacks, and temporarily live in the school buildings - these people will also be the force to defend the city."

The schoolhouse was left outside the city, not because Lin Ji discriminated against the school. This was because the architectural structure in China was like this at that time. For example, the Imperial College and Imperial College in Bianliang City were both in the outer city, and the picture was a quiet environment. It was believed that students could study in such an environment without being disturbed by material desires and concentrate on studying.

"Where is the temple? Why are the temples still left in the city? Are not temples usually in the mountains and forests? This is how to practice!"

"The temples are vast and have the function of garrisoning similar to schools, and can also be used as medical rooms to rescue wounded people in emergencies."

Lin Ji asked a few more questions about the functions and uses of the area on the sketch, and then said without objection: "Just like this, I have few people in Jiaoxi County. It is not big or small to build such a small town, which is just in line with the layout of the small county. How should people be assigned to you? I will listen to you."

Zhao Xing was surrounded by an architect. He turned to Ansida and said, "When the master first came, he told me that Quanzhou City was built by you, and Chang'an City had left countless masterpieces of yours, so I will leave this small town to you."

An Sida nodded, took the branch from Zhao Xing's hand, pointed out a clearing in the city, and said, "If we build it, we need to add a church here, a Nestorian church."

Zhao Xing frowned: "This open space is a place where I keep it as a place for gathering troops or rain. When there is no sacrifice or practice, I plan to let the people go there for a walk... If you squeeze the church into the street and be with the shop, it's no inconvenience, because I need to leave a large open space in a square as a city square."
To be continued...
