Chapter 166 Preliminary Planning
Author: Yunyue Qi
Early the next morning, Li Chen took Li Xin, Li Xue, Dianqing and others to Zai Ying's former palace.
Although this place was once destroyed by Bai Qi's troops, it was still the old royal palace of Chu State. Over forty years later, it was renovated again.
Although it is not as luxurious as the former royal palace, it is much better than ordinary houses and courtyards.
The entire palace covers an area of about two square kilometers, which is enough for Li Chen and others to live.
Li Chen thought for a while, discussed with everyone, and decided to move the entire Xiaoyao Sect here.
After all, the main staff of Xiaoyao Sect is only about 400 people. Even if you include those members who have no internal strength, there are only more than 1,000 people. Such a large place is enough.
Moreover, it is impossible for all personnel to stay here. Except for some people who are performing tasks outside, there are also some people who already own properties in the city, and it is impossible for them to live here.
Li Chen led everyone to find a courtyard near the middle as a residence for himself and others. In the front area, except for a place for meeting guests, Li Chen planned to demolish and rebuild it.
As for the location of the backyard garden and some unused rooms, Li Chen planned to clear the land and plant the seeds provided by the system here to facilitate management.
After asking Liu Tong to talk about Qin Chu, Li Chen left everything to Liu Tong and Zhang Qi, asking them to take the remaining disciples of Xiaoyao Sect to do it.
Li Chen and others returned to the small courtyard and would not move in until the base was renovated.
In the following time, Li Chen was not idle. He obtained the laws of the Seven Kingdoms from Liu Tong, and then began to compile new laws based on the laws of later generations.
At the same time, some future development plans were made.
More than a month has passed, and the old palace has been basically renovated. Li Chen and everyone moved out of the small courtyard and moved into the courtyard of the base.
The new courtyard was relatively spacious. When Liu Tong renovated it, he added four small courtyards around it based on the original one, guarding the courtyard chosen by Li Chen in the middle.
Li Chen and his daughters moved into the middle courtyard, while the three brothers lived in a small courtyard each, and the remaining one was said to be left to Ji Bu.
Li Chen didn't care about them. After entering the room, Li Chen took out the Yin and Yang Mysterious Tracing Formation.
In the past month or so, Li Chen studied the formation disk in his free time and fully understood the functions and effects of the formation.
The limit distance of fifty miles does not mean that once the formation is deployed, it will cover a radius of fifty miles, but it can be adjusted on the formation plate, but it can only cover the longest distance of fifty miles.
Moreover, it can be transformed as needed.
Li Chen first covered the entire Zaiying city wall with the Yin-Yang Mysterious Formation and opened the defense, leaving only four entrances and exits.
In other words, even if Donghuang Taiyi comes, he can only enter through the city gate. It is absolutely impossible to cross the city wall.
This also reduces the pressure on Zaiying City's defense. As long as a dozen people are assigned to guard each city gate, everyone else can go about their business.
After the defense of the city wall was arranged, Li Chen went to the city wall of the former palace city, placed some crystal stones in the corresponding positions, and arranged a defense for the entire base.
After finishing his work, Li Chen gave it a try and found that even if he hit with all his strength, he couldn't shake the formation at all. This made Li Chen completely relieved.
Now, I can really be invincible.
In the evening, Li Chen handed over the control method of the formation to Li Xin. After all, he would go out in the future. When he was away, Li Xin would be responsible for the safety of the city.
Li Xin is now his woman, and Li Chen feels more at ease.
Moreover, the formation is given by the system, and Li Chen can enter and exit the formation at will.
Early the next morning, Li Chen erected the realm detection stele in the square in front of the base and placed a formation crystal on it. The stele was instantly connected to the ground. No one except Li Chen could shake it.
.
Li Chen told everyone the function of the stone tablet. After hearing the words, everyone was eager to try it. After some testing, everyone also had a clear understanding of their own strength.
Next, there is the construction of Xiaoyaomen and some arrangements in the city.
Li Chen reintegrated the Xiaoyao Sect based on the structure of the sects in some novels.
Li Chen was appointed as the sect leader, taking charge of all Xiaoyao sect and everything in the city.
Li Xin serves as the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, responsible for supervising the disciples of Xiaoyao Sect.
Dianqing is the elder of the training hall and is responsible for the training of Xiaoyao Sect disciples and the practice of battle formations.
Liu Tong is the elder of the Government Affairs Hall, responsible for handling the daily affairs of Xiaoyaomen and the city.
Zhang Qi is the elder of the Foreign Affairs Hall, responsible for the tasks of Xiaoyaomen and the daily patrols and guards in the city.
As for the other Li Xue, Mei Sanniang and Huaying, Li Chen asked them to choose a hall to practice.
As for the other disciples, the fifth to fourth ranks are deacons, the seventh to sixth ranks are inner disciples, the ninth to eighth ranks are outer disciples, and those who have not yet entered the rank are servant disciples.
After the war disaster forty years ago and the departure of some nobles, the city now has only 20,000 households and a population of more than 80,000.
Li Chen divided the entire Zaiying City into four areas based on the geographical location of the city, and arranged two administrative offices in each area to handle daily disputes among the people in the city.
After everything was assigned, Li Chen waved his hand, carried little Ayan back to the courtyard, and handed everything over to a few people.
Anyway, the legal plan has been given to Liu Tong and the others, and Li Chen will only take action when encountering something that cannot be handled.
As for the development plan, now is not the time to come up with it. We have to wait until everything is handled smoothly before we can talk about development.
Unexpectedly, not long after Li Chen returned, Liu Tong rushed over. As soon as he saw Li Chen, he complained: "Sir, please spare me! Other people's things are very simple, but what do I want here?"
Do it?
Many of the former disciples of Xiaoyao Sect are rogues. It's okay to let them fight, but if you ask them to manage the people, Madam will probably kill them all."
Li Chen looked at him and was speechless: "Where is this place? It was the capital of the former King of Chu! There is nothing else. Can't you find anyone who has been an official?
Wouldn't it be enough if you invite a few people who have been officials to come back and put a few smarter disciples under them?"
Hearing this, Liu Tong was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead and said happily: "Sir, I understand, I will make arrangements right away."
Li Chen nodded: "The people I find must understand the laws I created. Don't lose your life just after taking office. This will lower our reputation in the hearts of the people."
Liu Tong nodded and said: "I understand, sir, I will definitely give them instructions."
Watching Liu Tong leave, Li Chen smiled, everything was about to enter a new starting point...
