Chapter 42

The construction of China City is also quite large-scale. In the eyes of the various tribes that trade with each other, it is simply a masterpiece. Only the water tribe favored by the gods can obtain the construction method for a long time and continue to build it, which also gave birth to a large number of Hua Xi.

The Royal Palace in the center of the Craftsman City covers an area of ​​2,500 square meters. No matter where you are in the city, you can see the Royal Palace at a glance, which is twice as tall as the city wall.

According to Hua Xi's plan, four gravel avenues were laid out in the four directions of southeast, northwest and southeast with the palace as the center. The end of the road running from north to south is the south gate and north gate of China City. Since China City is quite vast, it is for the area near China City.

For the convenience of the tribe, Hua Xi specially set aside a place in the residential area of ​​South Gate and North Gate as a market.

In addition to the buildings required by Hua Xi's blueprint, such as the royal palace, the ancestral temple and the houses where the tribesmen live, a moat two people deep and about 10 meters wide was excavated, leading directly to the large lake a few hundred meters away from China City. Hua Xi will also

The moat is introduced into the city from the south gate, and the artificial river leads all the way to the side gate of the north gate. It flows out through the side gate and surrounds the north gate to form a moat, and then flows out into the river a few miles away. This not only provides Chinatown with an insurmountable line of defense, but also solves the problem of

The issue of how tribesmen in the city can get water without leaving the city

The large lake formed by the Pilian Falls sloping down has its source. The river it formed has been winding out to the sea. A small artificial river was dug directly from the source. A small artificial river flows through Chinatown and then merges into the big river to flow out to the sea, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the river water.

Purity also reduces the occurrence of certain diseases and plagues to a certain extent

At present, the Shui tribe has not changed much compared to a few months ago. Except for a few newborn children, the total population is still around 500, but the permanent population in China City has exceeded 1,000.

The nearly doubled population of the Great Pass was borrowed from various tribes, and of course the interest was food.

In order to prevent some malicious tribal spies and deliberate troublemakers from appearing in the city, Hua Xi carefully expanded the number of enforcers to two hundred.

Hua Feng and Hua Yong were successively promoted to elder positions by Hua Xi. They were mainly responsible for the property security of the tribe and the life safety of the tribe. During the expansion of the enforcers, the enforcer troops were covered by the aura of the gods, and were selected to join.

Strongly attracted by the rich food and a small amount of pottery and other preferential treatment, the new elder Hua Feng, who was responsible for the recruitment work under the temporary straw shed, was almost suffocated to death by the swarming tribesmen several times.

After several extremely dangerous recruitment tasks, Huafeng cleverly handed over the recruitment work to Hua Yong, and went to the archery training ground in charge of Hua Yong to train the new recruits.

After the simple functional buildings and water supply facilities in the entire China City were completed, Hua Xi sent an invitation to the leaders stationed in the city who were responsible for the transactions between their respective tribes and the Shui Tribe, saying that a banquet would be held for the leaders of these tribes in the newly built palace in three days.

When they received Hua Xi's invitation, they were all puzzled. They didn't know what the people from the Youshui tribe were doing by inviting them for nothing. No matter how they pressed and inquired, the people from the Youshui tribe who sent the message all said they didn't know.

Three days passed quickly. When these trade leaders appeared one after another with their bodyguards in the large square in front of the palace (the so-called palace refers to a bungalow with better materials and a larger area than civilians),

Suddenly, I found hundreds of water tribe warriors holding spears standing in the large square. The cold wind of early winter blew around me. Under the gaze of the majestic and motionless warriors, all the invited people came.

The guests suddenly felt their hearts beating faster and sweating. They felt intuitively that today's banquet was not a good one.

Under the leadership of a topless warrior, showing off his solid muscles, more than thirty guests were brought into the palace for the first time. They stepped into this "heavily guarded" big house, which was respectfully called the palace by the Shui people. Almost everyone

In addition to the uneasy speculation caused by the group of soldiers standing outside the palace, the guests were also impressed and envious of the decoration and space inside the palace.

From the outside, there is nothing special about the palace except that it is larger than the surrounding buildings. But when you go inside, you will see another scene that can be called luxury.

After entering the entrance of the palace, everyone discovered that the inside was not as simple as it looked from the outside. When entering the entrance of the palace, a small stone avenue led directly to a building thirty meters away, and the palace seen outside was just the outer wall of the palace.

On both sides of the avenue, there were more than 20 warriors who looked the same as outside. After entering the building, everyone realized that the "wealth" of the Shui Tribe was indeed not built for nothing.

The floor inside the building is actually paved with regular half-meter-sized porcelain tiles. I have lived in Chinatown for a long time, and I have exchanged ceramics back more or less. The group of leaders who are responsible for the details of the transaction naturally know how expensive ceramics are.

, especially those fine, exquisitely crafted ceramics. Judging from the luster seen with the naked eye and the feeling of contact with the soles of the feet, it is obvious that these tiles under the feet are of top quality.

In fact, spending so many high-quality ceramic tiles to lay out the palace is already exhausting everything for the seemingly wealthy Youshui tribe, but Hua Xi knows that sometimes things like face-saving projects still have to be done enough because

These things increase the tribe's strength and extraordinaryness from another aspect. Otherwise, the God's Clan would still be sitting on those overgrown lands eating like other tribes. What would that look like?

Following the guidance of one of the waiters, everyone sat on either side, including Hua'an, Hua Feng, Hua Yong and other three elders of the Shui Tribe, as well as dozens of craftsmen. They had been waiting for a long time, but the middle seat was still hanging in the air.

Everyone knows that that seat is the seat of Hua Xi, the messenger sent by the gods to the Youshui Tribe, the great leader of the Youshui Tribe.

While chatting with everyone in the gathering and the core members of the Youshui Tribe, a long laugh came from inside the house, and not long after, the figure of the patriarch Hua Xi appeared in front of everyone.

"Haha, today's banquet is specially prepared by our water tribe for everyone here. Please eat more after a while! Haha..."

"Thank you for the hospitality of the Patriarch's Holy Clothes. I just don't know why the banquet was held. It wouldn't be... um..." the following people said in fear.

There were no other reasons for their fear. First, the heavily armed warriors outside made them uneasy. They always felt that something would happen at this banquet. Secondly, after just a few hundred days, the Water Tribe had transformed from a

The unknown tribe that I had never heard of suddenly became the central tribe within a ten-mile radius. I had been in contact with it for a long time and was amazed by the astonishing development speed and strength of the Youshui Tribe.

More importantly, whether there are people from the Shui Tribe or other tribes, including people from their own tribe, there are many versions of legends about Hua Xi that are passed down orally, but no matter which version is different, the only thing that is the same is that it refers directly to Hua Xi.

Xi is an envoy sent by the gods, so it is inevitable to feel fear in the heart.

"Haha, don't be in a hurry, I guess you haven't eaten yet? Let's eat first before talking..." Hua Xi patted her palms a few times, and dozens of waitresses filed in with plates of food in their hands.

The waiter brought the food to the small wooden table in front of the leaders of each tribe, and then filed out.
