Eight hundred and thirtieth chapters of the initial construction of the alliance city
After everything was arranged, Li Luo and his party decided to march eastward, with Qian Yi as the vanguard general. After Zhu Zhi caught up, they returned to the rear and continued to Shangfu, the eastern capital.
After these trivial matters were dealt with, it was almost evening, and Li Luo and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were delayed a lot of time, they were in a good mood.
Rangsi Hanshan came over and asked in a low voice: "Xuanlou, what did you see when you finally left there?"
Li Luo took a breath and said, "I saw hundreds of walking corpses."
Rangsi Hanshan let out a low cry, and Li Luo smiled softly and said without hiding it: "As Brother Hanshan has seen, the people in these tombs seem to be alive, but they are almost dead. This is the first time I have ever seen such a situation.
When I saw it, I was shocked."
"Living dead." Rangsi Hanshan muttered to himself, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Luo glanced at Rangsi Hanshan, and suddenly the corner of his eyes glanced at Xiang Liu'er, who was sitting quietly on a big stone. This woman was so calm that it was surprising. She had never been seen in a panic when entering and leaving the ancient tomb. It seemed like all this
Everything was as she expected.
Xiang Liu'er noticed Li Luo's gaze, raised her head and looked at Li Luo, and smiled lightly. This smile looked normal, but it seemed to hide a lot of puzzling emotions.
Li lowered his chin and saluted, and looked back at the dusk-green Immortal Peak. Whether the secret buried here will be related to the people of the world, it will be up to Ren Yuanshan whether he can find any clues in three years.
Dongfu, Chuyang Prefecture.
Guan Chao Ferry, this is a place that made the people of Da Gandong Prefecture cry with sadness. Back then, the Hua Dou pirates were wreaking havoc. Here, they were besieged by Li Luo's army of Mu Tianlang and entered the sea. The Hua Dou bandits and bandits jumped over the wall and massacred two thousand innocent people.
One hundred and seventy-three people, not counting the Dagan people who were killed elsewhere by these pirates when they burned, killed, and looted.
As time goes by, the tragic scene outside the Guanchao Ferry that day has gone forever. Only the tombstones erected by the Mu Tianlang soldiers at the Guanchao Ferry for these tragically killed people still tell the story of the heinous crimes committed by the Hua Dou Hai bandits here.
OK.
Thirty miles north of Guanchao Ferry, in a bay backed by mountains and water, a new city, League City, was built out of thin air within a year.
League City is not that big now. There are two ferries extending into the sea on both sides. The north one is called Past Years, and the southern one is called Lai Ri. The one recessed in the middle is where the Dagan imperial court built mountains and reclaimed the sea according to Li Luo's memorial.
An alliance was made with the tribes of the East China Sea, and the newly built Shangfu Yaohe was established.
Today's League City is full of new ideas. Thousands of sailboats compete on the north and south sides of the bay. Pavilions and shops are lined up in the middle of the bay. They are built one after another along the gentle mountain on the back. Some have been completed and some are still under construction, giving off a sense of vitality.
High spirits.
The city was full of people, including people from Dagan and business travelers, as well as many people from the Donghai ethnic group. They were all crowded together, making it very lively.
League City is a city without walls. When Li Luo was ordered by the court to start building the city, he sent a letter to Gu Xichao, the commander-in-chief of Chuyang and Dongyan states, and Yu Zilue, the naval commander, as well as Lan Qing, the new governor of Chuyang state.
The book states that this city does not need to build a city wall and is built based on the shape of the mountains and the bay.
Although the League City is controlled by Chuyang Prefecture, there is no prefect or city lord in the city. Instead, it has made an alliance with all the tribes in the East China Sea and has a Yaohehui.
There were nine people in the meeting. Except for one who was appointed by the Dagan court, the other eight were either famous merchants along the Dagan coast, people with both political integrity and talent, or heroes recommended by various ethnic groups in the East China Sea.
Half of them.
All major and minor affairs in the alliance city are decided through negotiation by the Yaohe Association. It is not an exaggeration to say that the city is autonomous.
It is precisely because the style of doing things in League City is very different from other places. In just one year, League City has become a gathering place for maritime merchants in the Dongfu area. It is so popular that it looks like a rising star. Among the coastal states of Dongfu
It is obvious that the alliance city is the main one, and it is not much more generous than the Song family's ferry in Nanfu.
There were few officers and soldiers in the city. Thirty miles outside the city, Gu Xichao stationed a cavalry force to protect them from a distance.
The League City advocates freedom, and since there are no city walls, these passing business travelers, whether from Dagan or foreigners, can come and leave.
Over time, these merchants all regarded the League City as their own territory. Naturally, they could not allow people with ulterior motives to disturb the peace here. Although they were not yet in a situation of sharing the same hatred with the enemy, in a short time, this would be a place where Da Gan and the East China Sea tribes would blend together.
A wonderful place.
The League City was in dire straits and was waiting to be rebuilt. When building the city, the Dagan court spent a lot of manpower and material resources. Li Luo also used Li Luo's mediation. The government sent tens of thousands of craftsmen to dig mountains and build roads, and broke stones to build roads.
The building took shape within a few months.
Later, many merchants moved here. When the merchants first came here, it was somewhat overpowering and many people were unwilling to come. However, the Song family had the most foresight. They bought a large piece of land in League City early and built
The Song family's chamber of commerce warehouse.
He returned some favors to Li Luo openly, but secretly took root in the alliance city earlier. Whether it was with Da Gan or Dong Hai, there was no harm at all.
Nowadays, all the businessmen who stayed behind are smiling and making a lot of money. They only wish they had not come earlier.
As for those who didn't want to come, they also saw the atmosphere of the alliance city at this moment, and tried their best to get into the business sea of the alliance city. They all scrambled to be the first, but they were always a step too late.
When it comes to business in the League City, everything is decided by the merchants themselves. The imperial court does not intervene much, and taxes are light. There is no need for red tape to hinder things like elsewhere, and the commercial market naturally becomes prosperous.
But there are advantages and disadvantages. Dagan's customs and customs are completely different from those of the East China Sea tribes. When doing business, these business travelers will inevitably bump into each other and compete with each other.
Li Luo had also thought about these things, but he didn't force the Chuyang government to do anything. He just let things happen naturally. However, there was an explicit order in one place. If someone breaks the rules of Yaohe Academy and causes trouble in the academy, no matter whether it is a person from Daganzhong
Or maybe he is a visitor from the East China Sea and will be punished without mercy.
There is a big stone in front of Yaohe Academy, with seven rules written by Li Luo himself. The punishments are also very severe. However, none of the tribes in the East China Sea have any objections. On the contrary, they feel the sincerity of the Dagan court. Most of the time, they strictly discipline themselves and they are not broken.
The rules of Yaohe Academy.
However, there are inevitably some arrogant East China Sea heroes. Once they don't abide by the rules, the East China Sea tribes will usually deal with these people before Da Gan. After a few times, no one dares to cause trouble in Yaohe Academy. This school has become a
It is the most stable place in the alliance city.
There is no such good luck elsewhere. The most prosperous place in League City is Wangxing Tower.
Wangxing Tower is located in the center of Yaohe City. This center is not the center of League City buildings, but because it is the center of League City's power, and Yaohe Club is located on Wangxing Tower.
