The game system I designed myself has not tricked anyone into grandma’s house.
Although the points required for upgrades and expansions continue to skyrocket, the rewards for newly promulgated construction tasks have also increased accordingly.
If this were the reward of 500 or 800 from the previous mission, City Lord Zhang would probably vomit blood.
Compared to the upgrade requirement of 10,000 points, 2,000 points is still a bit small.
But it finally gives people a head start.
The rewards from the previous two missions, plus the 600 points remaining from the previous one, now total 4,600 points.
The distance is 10,000, which is close to half of it, which at least gives people a glimmer of victory.
With this thought, City Lord Zhang geared up and refreshed the task list:
[Construction Task 7.3 - The scope of Chang'an is expanding day by day. There are many people under the rule. Food is the most important thing for the people. Agriculture is the foundation of all industries. Please ask the city lord to improve the farming and animal husbandry level of the people under the rule.]
Agricultural issues…
Zhang Dongyun thought carefully.
Strictly speaking, within the scope of Invincible City, as long as there are some initial seeds, there will be an infinite harvest.
But City Lord Zhang didn't like this method of teaching people to fish.
In other words, he doesn't like to catch fish every day to feed others.
It is better to teach a child to fish than to teach him to fish.
It has always been Zhang's principle to let the people be self-reliant and then support him as the city lord.
To improve the level of agriculture, without considering mechanization, we may have to start from aspects such as fertilizer, climate, water conservancy, or farmland population.
Because of his previous life experience, Zhang Dongyun is particularly keen on water conservancy and fertilizers in this regard.
He doesn't have to worry about doing this himself, as he has professional manpower.
The all-powerful boy Chen Yu was just a brick, and he could move it wherever he needed it. Zhang Dongyun once again carried him back to the Tiangong Hall from the weapons factory.
Then, carry it to the fields.
The next key research topic before him is water conservancy machinery and artificial fertilizers.
Of course, it's not artificial fertilizer like Yoneda Kyo, but something similar to chemical fertilizer.
As for how to mass-produce scraps in this fantasy world, City Lord Zhang didn't worry about it and left it to Chen Yu to do whatever he wanted.
He is only responsible for giving the other party some general directions.
Chen Yu didn't dislike this at all.
In other words, he has an extremely strong curiosity about many things and is willing to try anything.
As for being able to achieve results no matter what he tries, that's his ability.
Chen Yu has previously designed water conservancy facilities for farmers.
But at that time, I just did it casually when I got interested.
Now, under the orders of Mr. Wu Yun, he will start to study seriously.
Zhang Dongyun naturally appreciates this and looks forward to the results of the other party.
On the other side, someone sent back other results first.
"It should be Yang Li."
Shen Herong's voice came back through Qingtian Eye: "There are traces of Sirius' actions."
Zhang Dongyun looked at the seemingly empty and desolate world in front of Shen Herong through the image reflected on the water-like mirror in the hall.
"But it's still unclear whether He Sanyang is alive or dead."
Shen Herong said: "Judging from the location of the attack, the younger sister is more likely to have been captured alive instead of dead."
There was a piece of white paper in her hand, and the surface of the paper was pure white.
If someone died here, the white paper will be dyed blood red.
"With Yang Li's method, eating people directly can save the interrogation and capture the people. There may be other plans." Shen and Rong said.
Zhang Dongyun said calmly: "Keep looking and see if there are any other clues."
"Don't worry, brother." Shen Herong responded.
Zhang Dongyun stood up and walked around the hall.
Speaking of which, he had already obtained the fragments of the Immortal Trace on Yang Li's body.
Is it necessary to kill Yang Li again? At least it is no longer so urgent.
But since the other party is lingering around Chang'an, it means An An has no good intentions.
Whether it's revenge or retaking the fragments, Yang Li is always keeping an eye on Chang'an.
It's just that he is extremely cautious and will not take risks easily.
Keeping this guy around will always be a disaster.
Like this time, He Sanyang was taken advantage of.
It's best to find an opportunity and kill him, once and for all, so as not to be worried about this guy all the time... Zhang Dongyun thought in his mind.
At this time, in the Tianshu Hall in Chang'an City below, someone came to report and asked to see Mr. Wuyun.
Zhang Dongyun projected Mr. Wuyun to summon him.
"Sir, this is a secret message from the Southern Liang Dynasty."
The person who came was Song Bin, the elder of Xuan Dao Dao: "There are still secret envoys outside the city. The matter is very important. I dare not make decisions without permission. I have sent a letter in first and asked you to read it."
After Mr. Wu Yun opened the secret message and read it, he remained calm.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Isn't it a letter from Prince Liang?" Mr. Wu Yun looked at Song Bin.
Song Bin nodded: "The visitor is the nephew of Yang Ranran, the dean of Nanliang Luoqing Academy."
Zhang Dongyun pondered in his heart after hearing this.
He had heard about Luo Qing Academy.
Information about the Nanliang Dynasty will not miss this famous Nanliang Confucian school, which is also known as Chansheng Academy.
Yang Ranran, the dean of Luo Qing Academy, was also a famous eighth-level scholar in the Southern Liang Dynasty.
However, relevant information will also mention that Luo Qing Academy is extremely low-key. Both the dean Yang Ranran and his students study behind closed doors. Since twenty years ago, no students have become officials in the Southern Liang Dynasty.
Their relationship with the Nanliang royal family was the most distant among the major academies in Nanliang.
"Actually, it wasn't like this originally."
Song Bin sighed: "Twenty or thirty years ago, Luo Qing Academy was almost the only one in the court of the Southern Liang Dynasty. Many people were officials and held important positions."
Mr. Wu Yun looked at the letter in his hand again: "As far as I know, there was a change of throne in the Southern Liang Dynasty twenty-five years ago. It was not from father to son, but from brother to brother."
Song Bin nodded: "On the surface, everyone is saying this, but there were private rumors in the Southern Liang Dynasty that the previous Liang King Xiao Zhaoyuan actually died at the hands of the current Liang King Xiao Keye, and Xiao Keye ascended the throne. In fact, For the sake of regicide and rebellion."
Mr. Wu Yun looked at him: "Yang Suran and Xiao Zhaoyuan got along well with each other, but after Xiao Keye came to the throne, he favored Lu Chen, the dean of Chansheng Academy. As a result, Luo Qing Academy lost its power. Now Yang Suoran feels that his opportunity has come?"
Song Bin said: "I have never had much contact with Yang Suran, so I dare not say anything about his personality.
However, as far as Pindao knew, Yang Suran had already retired to seclusion when Xiao Zhaoyuan was in power.
When Xiao Keye first came to the throne, he did not abolish the officials in Luo Qing Academy. Instead, everyone in Luo Qing Academy resigned collectively.
Although it is not difficult to force people to resign voluntarily, the news coming from Nanliang in recent years seems that everyone in Luo Qing has indeed taken the initiative to resign.
It was only after that that the Cicada Academy was gradually filled with more people, leaving a vacancy left by the former Luo Qing Academy."
Mr. Wu Yun said: "I heard that the extravagant style of Nanliang became popular after Xiao Keye came to the throne, and the exploitation of the people has become increasingly serious in recent years?"
Song Bin nodded: "It is true that when Xiao Zhaoyuan was in power, the officials in Nanliang governed the Qingming Dynasty, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the country was peaceful and the people were safe. It has been praised by all parts of Eastern Xinjiang.
Xiao Keye was able to be so wasteful after he ascended the throne, and he must also thank the former king for the rich family fortune he left behind."
"Call the messenger in." Mr. Wuyun put the letter on the table beside him.
Song Bin agreed and went out to pick up the person.
Nowadays, Chang'an's fourth-level outer city is enclosed. If you want to get from the fourth-level outer city to the inner city, you have to walk a long way.
After going back and forth, Song Bin waited for a long time before he brought people in.
Mr. Wuyun looked at him quietly: "What do you call him?"
The man was silent for a moment, and then his whole demeanor changed.
Song Bin on the side felt as if a layer of fog lifted from his eyes.
The next moment, the messenger completely changed in his eyes.
"Yang... Dean?" Song Bin asked with some uncertainty.
The old man in front of him nodded: "This old man is Yang Suran. In order to keep it secret, I have concealed a lot of things before. Please forgive me, Taoist Master Song."
The so-called messenger was clearly Yang Ranran, the dean of Luo Qing Academy.
Zhang Dongyun already knew this.
Although the area enclosed by the city wall is large, it is not as large as the Invincible City system.
Yang suddenly entered the system and waited outside the city wall. His identity was no longer a secret to Zhang Dongyun.
But after listening to what Song Bin said, Zhang Dongyun became a little interested.
"Xiao Zhaoyuan was really killed by Xiao Keye?" Mr. Wu Yun got straight to the point when they met.
Yang suddenly nodded lightly: "Yes, the king was killed by Xiao Keye."
"Did you give the order for all students of Luo Qing Academy to resign?" Mr. Wu Yun continued to ask.
Yang suddenly replied: "The old man did have a call, but most people did not accept what Xiao Keye did before the old man called, so they resigned and did not do anything."
The truth...
Zhang Dongyun looked at each other with interest in the Daming Palace.
"In this case, why not raise a flag of rebellion and tell the world the truth?"
Mr. Wu Yun continued to ask: "Looking at your appearance, you don't look like a person who is afraid of difficulties. What's more, although you are not the Ninth Realm, there is naturally a Ninth Realm alliance against Xiao Keye in Nanliang."
"The silence of the old man is the tacit understanding between the old man and Xiao Keye."
Yang suddenly sighed: "Your Majesty is dead, and the royal family has no ninth-level masters except Xiao Keye. If there is civil strife in Daliang, it will inevitably be taken advantage of by the former Eastern Tang, Western Chu, or Nanchen.
On the other hand, the old man wanted to try his best to preserve the king's bloodline. The king's only son was in the hands of Xiao Keye, so the old man could only remain silent until now.
Now more than twenty years have passed, Xiao Keye's situation has been stabilized, the king's only son cannot practice, and his cultivation is low. He is finally free, and the old man can start planning.
As for other people in Daliang, if they take power, they will probably be more brutal than Xiao Keye."
Yang Suran eloquently said that through system judgment, Zhang Dongyun knew that what the other party said was true.
But Mr. Wu Yun, who was sitting in front of Yang Suran, was indifferent: "You need to know one thing. On the day I sent my troops from Chang'an to the south, there will be no more Southern Liang Dynasty in the world."
"I understand."
Yang suddenly nodded, his tone calm and firm: "In the past, I followed the king and determined to benefit the people of Daliang and make the world healthy.
Your Majesty is a great and wise king, and I have been assisting you for many years. Daliang has finally become prosperous, so I retire and hope to enjoy your old age secretly.
Unexpectedly, the king was killed by Xiao Keye.
The prosperous country of Daliang is also about to slide into the abyss step by step."
The old man exhaled a long breath: "I have traveled through various places under the rule of Chang'an and penetrated into the countryside. Although there are still old influences from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, a new atmosphere is constantly unfolding.
The Lord of Chang'an City is indeed as everyone says, he is tolerant and caring for the people, and he values the people.
The world belongs to the common people, not to one family and one surname!
Rather than fall into the hands of a single man and a bandit, it would be better for Daliang to usher in a new life in Chang'an.
As long as the people can be happy and happy, I believe that the king will rest in peace under the nine springs."
Mr. Wu Yun looked at Yang Suran: "What if Xiao Zhaoyuan's son wants to be restored in the future?"
"If he is talented, I believe that with the magnanimity of the Lord of Chang'an City and Your Excellency, he can be accommodated, just like Li Qiong of the Tang Dynasty."
Yang suddenly replied calmly: "If he had no talent, Zhao Yuan would not have passed the throne to him even if he were still alive."
