The official office of the city lord in the dog days of summer.
It's as hot as a steamer.
Lian Zixin was extremely busy, with documents piled up on his desk one after another, making him wish he could grow three heads and six arms to handle his official duties, then grow wings and fly to the front line, pinning all the dragon and tiger cavalry to the ground and hammering them to death.
"Report to the deacon."
"explain!"
"The god is back."
As soon as the clerk in the hall finished speaking, Lian Zixin immediately jumped out from behind the desk and waved: "Hurry, all these official documents are moved to the city lord's palace next door. The god is finally back!"
After half a while.
Chen Tian watched in astonishment as a group of officials piled up the pavilion with documents. If Lian Zixin hadn't stood beside him to explain, he would have thought that the official office had moved.

"How many days have I been in the cave?"
"Including today, there are more than four days in total."
"It's only four days..." Chentian handed Lian Zixin a glass of iced sour plum soup and said in surprise, "It's not like so many things suddenly appeared, right? Something happened in Pingmuguan?"
"The gods are wise."
Lianzi Xin drank a cup of ice-cold sour plum soup and smacked his lips happily: "The Dragon and Tiger Cavalry, with Yin Jianyuan as its commander, has a total of three thousand troops and 400,000 servants. They have already settled in Pingmuguan and are expected to take over Gu in the next two days.
It’s Sioux City.”
There are nearly 10,000 miles between Yongtai City and the Yin clan in the northern region. There are a total of nineteen passes, among which Pingmuguan is the middle line.
Gusu City is the third largest city in Cangxi's northern region, with a population of more than one million. If Yin Jianyuan officially settles in it, not only will Pingmuguan be lost, but a supply station with rich heritage will also be obtained.
Of course, Lian Zixin was well aware of the dangers involved. Naturally, he would carefully consider every piece of information handed over by Gui Deng before making any arrangements.
Even though he was proficient in internal affairs, he was somewhat unskilled in dealing with important military affairs involving tens of thousands of people. Naturally, there were more and more documents. Chen Tian pointed at Shi Deng who had not yet been buried and motioned for him to sit down: "
Yin Jianye's campaign was very effective. The eight thousand cavalrymen who set off from the Yin clan in the northern region stopped at the city and then reached Gusu City, and their strength was more than ten times greater.
"Yes, Yin Jianye is a talented young man whom the Yin family has not seen for 500 years. He is very clever." Lian Zi
Wei, the large city east of Pingmuguan
Send more troops."
"Conquer the rebels?"
"Exactly, he is slandering Yongtai City in colluding with the demon clan inside and outside, and is preparing to lure the snowfield dog soldiers north of Yanshan Mountain into the pass and invade the interior."
"Does anyone believe this?" "A lot of people say it, so it's hard not to believe it." Lianzi Xin helplessly spread his hands and added again, "Some time ago, a thousand disciples of the Panlong Sect were killed.
The outside world said that we directed and acted on our own, and deliberately launched an attack on the Yin family in the Northern Territory.
.”
"Absurd!" Chen Tian snapped.
He felt that the sewage concocted by Yin Jianye had damaged Yongtai City before the dragon and tiger cavalry. This guy would do anything to mobilize his military strength.
However, these names have no substance, and they cannot shake the people's hearts in Yongtai City. Moreover, the city lord's palace publishes a newspaper every day. In fact, the ability to control public opinion is stronger and more effective than that of the Yin family in the Northern Territory.
"There is no need to block these messages, let them come in."
"But……"
"It's not a big problem. Not only are they allowed to spread in, the city lord's palace even wants to echo the rumors, making these rumors so stupid that they eventually turn into a joke."
"Dare to ask the gods for advice."
"Didn't the Yin family spread rumors that Yongtai City was colluding with the demon clan? Let's not refute it, just follow the exaggeration a thousand times over." Chen Tian knocked on the tea table and said jokingly.
"Yongtai City doesn't just collude with the demon clan?"
"They even collude with extraterrestrial demons from top to bottom. You can see demons wandering around when you walk on the street. Ordinary people are too embarrassed to go out without raising one or two."
"Isn't this too false?" Lianzi Xin said sarcastically.
Chen Tian smiled: "What we want is this effect, a rumor that can be seen through at a glance. After hearing this, everyone naturally suspected that the Yin family had deliberately slandered Yongtai City, and even felt that the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry were unreliable."
"Understood, we will make arrangements immediately later."
"Don't put too much thought into it. These little tricks are not worth mentioning. If you have the energy, you should take care of people's livelihood. When the people are rich, there is no need for the City Lord's Palace to come forward. The rumors will be self-defeating."
"But like the death of Panlong Sect disciples, the facts must be told clearly, and Yongziying cannot be devastated."
"Weizhi knows." Lian Zixin nodded and said casually, "As soon as the news of the Brahma Tianlin treasure was revealed, spies from the Liusha Chamber of Commerce gathered. General Fan took this opportunity to conduct a careful investigation, hoping to find the mastermind behind the murder of his disciples."
"Let him go. Guideng has a clue. Remember to provide it to him in time."
"As commanded."
"The summer grain has matured recently, how is the harvest?" Chen Tian felt more and more that Yongtai City was on the right track. It had a new look every day and disappeared in a few days. There were only four or five newly built buildings near the city lord's palace.
Lian Zixin pondered for a moment and then said eloquently: "Because of the vegetation and flowers that nourish the earth's energy, the summer grain output this time is 80% more than in previous years. Among them, Zhongyi Village is the closest and has the best harvest. Just half an acre of land has nine stones."
.”
"It's not bad. When Zhi Farm Hall is fully grown in the future, if the trend continues, it won't be a problem to double the autumn grain." Chen Tian expected the effect of the Plant and Flower Fairy, so he wasn't too surprised.
But after Lianzi Xin told him the full output, he was quite surprised and couldn't believe his ears.
"The summer grain collection has been put into the warehouse, totaling 170,000 stones. Three more stone granaries will be built in the future. It should be enough."
One hundred and seventy thousand stones?
You know, Yongtai City's grain tax is very low, only one-thirtieth. If converted, wouldn't it mean that there are at least five million shi of summer grain?
Chen Tian was startled, then picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Let's build it. The issue of the riverbank cave has been completely resolved. We can just build a few more granaries here."
"also."
"I have discovered a lot of mineral deposits in the caves, which have been recorded on the Longxian map. You can mobilize the engineer to draw up a development plan as soon as possible."
"Especially the slender-horned slugs among them. You personally supervise Supervisor Qu Si to domesticate and cultivate them. I will see the results at the end of the month."
"As ordered..." Lian Zi Xin Na Na responded.
Chen Tian frowned: "What's wrong? What's the difficulty?"
"There is no difficulty, it's just that these military planes have too many pragmatic tasks, and they are unable to do even the smallest of tasks." Lian Zixin scratched his head.
"Okay, you should be responsible for handling the internal affairs of Yongtai City first. I will take care of this."
"Excuse me, God."
Hearing this, Chen Tian glared at him: "Isn't that what you meant by moving the official documents here?"
Lianzi Xin Heiran smiled and apologized two or three times before bowing and retreating.
Sunset evening.
The eaves and corners of the pavilion were filled with dim yellow.
Chen Tian looked down at the pile of documents at his feet, and suddenly regretted letting Lian Zixin go. He had not slept for four days and three nights since he had crawled into the cave, and now he had to stay up all night again?
The iced sour plum soup that was originally refreshing and delicious now felt bitter in his mouth. He glanced at the embroidered bag with complicated patterns on his waist, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
After a while.
The maid who had taken the order had already returned. Before she could turn around the verandah, a group of chirping and charming smiles echoed in the back office garden. It was a fine evening.
