Chapter 169 Based on the world

In the blink of an eye, two years have passed.

In the past two years, the most popular place in the world has been Xiaoyao City.

Since two years ago, Xiaoyao Zui in Xiaoyao City has become popular all over the world. Businessmen from all over the world have come here one after another to transport Xiaoyao Zui to all parts of the seven countries.

After that, the white paper and colored glaze produced in Xiaoyao City also became products sought after by the nobles of the seven countries.

It can be said that Xiaoyao City has made a lot of money by relying on these three things.

Such a large amount of wealth is certainly enviable. The kings of the seven kingdoms extended their olive branches one after another, hoping to get a share of these businesses, but they were all kicked out.

Some countries even out of anger banned these three items from entering the country, but they later reluctantly revoked the ban.

After all, these things cannot be made elsewhere. After using them, replacing them with others will always be a bit inferior.

The Chu State was not idle either. Xiaoyao City was within the territory of the Chu State. The King of Chu and his commander Li Yuan saw that the business in Xiaoyao City was booming and planned to take Xiaoyao City back.

But all the people who didn't want to come were killed and their bodies were thrown outside Xiaoyao City.

In anger, the King of Chu mobilized 80,000 troops, intending to occupy Xiaoyao City by force.

Before arriving at Xiaoyao City, the general leading the team had changed three times, and the armaments and logistics had also been replenished three times.

When they reached more than forty miles outside Xiaoyao City, the army could no longer move forward. It was blocked by a barrier and could not move forward no matter what method it tried.

Moreover, military supplies are still being lost, and generals leading troops are still dying.

Even if experts were sent secretly, it would be of no avail. Not only were the people and weapons not saved, but even the experts who came were trapped inside.

They continued to quarrel like this for a month, and finally had no choice but to retreat.

Xiaoyao City is therefore well known by various forces in the world and is listed as a force that cannot be provoked.

Li Chen was lying in a small courtyard. The surrounding houses were all built with cement and wood. Just looking at this small courtyard, it is hard to imagine that this was still the feudal society in BC.

In the past two years, Li Chen has acquired a lot of good technologies from the sign-in process, and has completed all manufacturing technologies such as paper, glass, and cement.

The sales of liquor, paper, and glass alone have almost caught up with the number of gold coins Li Chen received before.

After these things became famous all over the world, everyone discussed it and decided to change Zaiying's name.

After all, Zaiying was the old capital of Chu State, and now that it has separated from Chu State, it is not suitable to use this name anymore.

Li Chen didn't bother to think about it. It was originally developed on the basis of Xiaoyao Sect, so it was simply changed to Xiaoyao City.

When Li Chen's thoughts were wandering, Liu Tong and Zhang Qi walked in and saluted Li Chen.

Li Chen opened his eyes, motioned for the two of them to sit down, looked at Zhang Qi and asked, "How is it? Is the matter resolved?"

Zhang Qi nodded and said in a deep voice: "We have already killed them. Those people were sent by Luo Wang. This is the third batch this year."

In addition to the kings of the seven kingdoms sending people to visit and the king of Chu sending troops, people from various families and the Xiang family also came to cooperate.

Li Chen agreed that they could get goods from here to sell, but Li Chen refused everything else.

After being silent for a while, Li Chen said: "Let them dance around for a while, then I will go and have a talk with them."

Then, Liu Tong looked to the side and asked: "How is the income during this period? Can the city expansion plan be implemented?"

Liu Tong cried bitterly: "Sir, why don't you take care of this yourself! I'm really too busy."

Li Chen smiled and said, "Didn't I get Ji Bu, who just came back, for you? It will make it easier for you with his help."

When Liu Tong heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "It's a good thing that you didn't tell me, sir. Ji Bu, that kid, has only been working for one day and he can't do it anymore. He would rather lead a team to close the city gate than help me handle government affairs."

Li Chen heard this and scolded with a smile: "This boy, what about Xiaoxue and Sanniang? Aren't they helping you too?"

Liu Tong smiled bitterly and said: "The two of them, along with Xiao Ayan, almost beat up all the managers in the city. Who dares to let them handle things again."

Li Chen was startled for a moment, then became a little angry: "I said you don't know what is good and what is good. Look, people like Li Yuan, Ji Wuye, Wei Yong, and Lu Buwei all want to seize all the power in their hands. I will take all political affairs into my hands."

I leave it to you, are you still not satisfied?"

Zhang Qi on the side also smiled and said: "It's just that among us, you have the most power, and you actually push it to the outside. This is a bit unreasonable."

Liu Tong glanced at Zhang Qi and said angrily: "Gungungun, how about I switch with you?"

Zhang Qi glanced at him sideways: "No, you can't beat me now, and you will definitely not be as good as me in performing the task."

Liu Tong stopped paying attention to him, looked at Li Chen and said, "Sir, please help me! My wife is pregnant with the child and is still working. You haven't been out in the past three or four days."

Li Chen sighed: "Okay, you first count the money that can be used to build the city, and leave the rest to me.

By the way, get that boy Ji Bu back to me and ask him to help me."

Liu Tong finally laughed: "Okay, sir, I'll go back and get it right now."

Li Chen glared at him and shouted: "Get out of here, don't hang around in front of me."

The two of them bowed and left happily.

Li Chen rubbed his head and sighed: "There is still a lack of available people!"

At this time, Li Xin walked in. At this time, Li Xin was already four or five months pregnant and her belly was already bulging.

Li Chen patted the rocking chair and motioned for her to sit next to him.

Li Xin rolled her eyes at him, sat on a stool nearby, looked at Li Chen and said, "What did Elder Liu say when he came over? Why did he leave so happily?"

Li Chen said with a bitter face: "He came to get me to work, of course he is happy."

Li Xin snorted coldly: "Everyone of us is too busy to make any progress. You are the only one lying here every day. Shouldn't I ask you to go out and help?"

Li Chen sighed, looked at the sky, and said leisurely: "When I was practicing martial arts, I just wanted to wander around the world and be free in the world. I didn't expect that I would become a city lord in the end."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Haven't you had enough fun these years? Then wait a few more years, and when the construction of Xiaoyao City is completed, I will go out with you for a walk."

Li Chen immediately smiled and said, "That's pretty much it."

Li Xin continued: "By the way, Huaying, Sanniang, Xiaoxue and the others, what are you going to do?"

Li Chen was stunned for a moment: "What should I do?"

Li Xin glared at him: "Don't say you don't understand the thoughts of the three of them. Sanniang and Huaying are both in their twenties, and Xiaoxue is seventeen years old. We can't delay it any longer."

Li Chen rubbed his forehead: "It's not easy for me to do this either!"

Li Xin smiled and said: "What's the problem? They all like you anyway, so why not marry them all!"
