Chapter 48

As time goes by, the weather gets hotter and hotter. Qiongzhou Island is already in the south, and it gets hot earlier than other places. It is cool at night and in the early morning when there is a sea breeze blowing. Can be scorched by the blazing sun overhead.

As a benevolent new master, Jiang Chaosheng allowed even slaves to rest for two more hours at noon when the sun was blazing.

Hearing that he proposed a few new policies, the people in Wangzhou City disapproved, and their evaluation of Jiang Chaosheng dropped one after another: “There is only so much time in a day to work, I am afraid that when the new emperor ascends the throne, his broken city has not been repaired. ”

The second son of the city lord, who spoke ill of Jiang Chaosheng that day, said in a contemptuous tone: “Anyway, his people are just that, slow down to repair, and when slaves give birth to slaves, the children and grandchildren will multiply, maybe they can fill his Qiong. Continental New City.”

The existing scale of Qiongzhou City is enough to accommodate a population of 30,000 to 40,000 people, but the group of slaves are still working day and night, because according to Jiang Chaosheng’s original plan, a building large enough to accommodate four or five people will be built on his own territory. A city of about 100,000 people.

Qiongzhou City now has less than 20,000 registered people. Such a city is the weight of a larger county. It is very good to have a county official to manage it, but it is the entire population of Jiang Chaosheng, the prince’s fief, listen. It looks shabby. In the event of a real fight, hundreds of thousands of people will press down the city, and a single spit can drown the small city of Qiongzhou. Jiang Chaosheng used curled ears when he had nothing, and now he has taken away the morale of the counselor who built the city for himself. That is to say, reincarnation is good, it is absolutely not a climate, and they do not need to be concerned about it at all.

These people said that their mouths were dry, and they couldn’t drink hot tea in the summer, so they ordered people to fetch iced drinks and enjoy them in the cool pavilion. As a result, when people walked, birds on the trees were startled.

“It’s raining?” The person who had just said bad things about Jiang Chaosheng touched it subconsciously, and touched the wet and warm pure white bird droppings, and his face that could barely be called gentle and elegant suddenly became colorful.

“Quack quack!”

The white gull, who descended from the sky, recounted the picture to Ji Xuanbing, and successfully made the latter laugh while covering his stomach for a long time.

Although Ji Xuanbing likes to praise Jiang Chaosheng very much, he has always been stingy with good words in front of others, and rarely gave a compliment: “You did a good job.”

The family members of the city lord of Wangzhou City, he had seen them from a distance on the day of the wedding. They all had roe-headed eyes, fat heads and big ears. Even if they looked at the thin faces, their stomachs were still with women who were pregnant for several months. As big as he is, he even dared to criticize his husband.

What to say, hundreds of thousands of troops are crushing the city, and the saliva can drown his own house, so he dares to let hundreds of thousands of birds **** in Wangzhou City. Not much.

“It’s okay to do this kind of thing once or twice, don’t do it too often, so as not to hurt innocent birds.” After a few more times, the second son of Wangzhou City will definitely kill the birds in anger.

Ji Xuanbing snuggled up softly: “It doesn’t matter, it flies fast, it won’t be caught so stupidly.”

Even though he said that, there was another way of saying it to Bai Ou Ji Xuanbing: “Vulgar!” He was still pregnant with a cub, and it was not good for an unborn cub to listen to this kind of thing all day.

Bai Ou’s Doudou’s eyes were stunned. He had praised him just now, and now he scolded him again. The King Shark was so moody, he turned his face and didn’t recognize anyone.

Ji Xuanbing glanced at the stupid white gull, and reluctantly patted a sea fish in front of this stupid bird. The latter succeeded in getting a fresh and tender sea fish, and immediately fluttered its wings and flew away.

Ji Xuanbing asked Jiang Chaosheng to take credit: “I have already said it, and I will learn it in the future so that it doesn’t smell bad.”

“Xuanbing is amazing!” Jiang Chaosheng raised his knife, cut the bright red watermelon in half, and then condensed ice cubes to cool the watermelon. After tasting a piece, he felt that it was just right, and then he took a shiny silver spoon and handed it to him. Ji Xuanbing, watermelon relieves the heat, but pregnant women can’t eat too much ice.

Ji Xuanbing dug out a central part. This watermelon is a good watermelon cultivated on sandy soil. Jiang Chaosheng sowed the seeds himself a few months ago. The skin is thin and the meat is tender and the juice is particularly abundant.

The little merman’s eyes were curved into crescents: “It’s so sweet!”

What he likes to eat the most is the melons and fruits grown on the island, because there is plenty of sunshine, the fruits that grow casually are as sweet as honey. Like this kind that was planted by Jiang Chaosheng and him with his own hands, because of the bonus, it seems to be more precious than those sent by others.

“Eat as much as you like.”

Ji Xuanbing dug out another spoonful and handed it directly to Jiang Chaosheng’s mouth: “Try it.”

“It’s delicious.” Jiang Chaosheng stopped after only one bite. A watermelon was divided into two halves, exactly one half of a person. He dug out another piece in the center and handed it to Ji Xuanbing, so that the little sharks could not suffer.

After eating the melon, Ji Xuanbing suddenly asked, “Husband’s father is sick, doesn’t it matter if he doesn’t go back?”

Jiang Chaosheng shook his head: “The capital is now the center of the whirlpool. If I am not summoned, I cannot leave without authorization and go to the capital, and there are few people here, all I have to do is to guard the territory.”

Jiang Chaosheng and Ji Xuanbing talked about the current situation incidentally: “Do you know which country in this world has the most people?”

“Which one, is it Lan Country?” Ji Xuanbing didn’t really care about the situation in the human kingdom, it wasn’t because he had no knowledge.

“Yes, this country has a vast territory, and it is the country with the largest territory and population around this sea area. There is no country. The official registered population of Lan Guo has a total of 40 million people. In fact, it may be a little more. Slaves probably account for it. A quarter of them, a total of about 50 million people.”

How can a peaceful and prosperous world satisfy Long Aotian’s fighting spirit, and the capital is prosperous, but most of the people in other places are not doing well. In the Central Plains area close to the capital, the emperor can still manage it, like this island where he was exiled. The people who did not specifically inform him that the emperor didn’t even know that the previous city lords were all killed by pirates, and he didn’t know that as early as several years ago, Qiongzhou City, which had a population of 70,000 or 80,000 people, was flooded by a huge tide.

“The emperor said that he is the master of the world, but when he went to other places, not everyone listened to him.” In the TV series, a certain emperor in a private interview could be caught by a bandit. The capital is too far away. , all by autonomy.

Jiang Chaosheng smiled: “It’s said that Qiongzhou City is not good, but our territory is far away, and ordinary people can’t control it, but it’s a lot more comfortable.”

If he wants to manage a big city, the people of the underground will fluctuate, everyone has their own calculations, and if a government decree is issued, the local gentry will try to block it. It was built from scratch, because it was built from scratch, basically it was his words, and the degree of freedom was actually much more comfortable.

“The number of people is not high. Although there are 50 million people, most of them are unarmed people. If we really want to fight, even if we mobilize the power of the whole country, it should be several million people.”

Local tyrants have their own thoughts, even if they are the fourth prince of Long Aotian, it is impossible to raise their arms and the whole world responds to his call. Moreover, raising soldiers is the most expensive. They all say that soldiers are used to martial arts. In the city next door, the soldiers who can fight a battle are not necessarily comparable to the current Qiongzhou.

“Speaking of which, you have given more than half of the money for raising soldiers. Thanks to you, they can be so strong.” Jiang Chaosheng handed over a carefully carved token. The circular token was divided into black and white halves, and the black half was in Jiang Chaosheng’s hands. In his hand, the other half was given to Ji Xuanbing, “This token can mobilize my personal soldiers. If I am not with you for something, you can ask them for anything.”

“There won’t be that kind of emergency, our family will always be together.” Saying so, Ji Xuanbing still took the token and put it in the ice-blue small purse he sewed with mackerel. On the purse, two water ducks swimming on the wavy line are embroidered crookedly, and it is impossible to see that they are the kind of mandarin ducks swimming in the water.

Jiang Chaosheng knew that Ji Xuanbing didn’t like to listen, but the situation could change at any time: “If the emperor dies, I should still have to go back to the funeral. You are pregnant with a child, and it is not suitable for you to go to such an unlucky place.”

Ji Xuanbing listened to Jiang Chaosheng’s tone, and his husband looked very rude to his own father. If the cubs he gave birth to were so unconscionable, Ji Xuanbing would definitely be angry and recreate the unfilial son.

But now this situation is definitely not his husband’s fault. It’s all because the old emperor is very old, and he has so many wives. It’s not uncommon to have too many children. The husband can’t be wrong, it’s all the old emperor’s fault!
