    Because Jincheng was already very dilapidated, this brought a lot of conveniences to Zhao Hongyu's re-planning and construction.

    It is like a painter repainting on a clean white canvas that has not been painted.  If Jincheng was a very sound city, then this would bring a lot of trouble to Zhao Hongyu.

    Zhao Hongyu is very satisfied with the environment here in Jincheng.

    It¡¯s just that he didn¡¯t say it.

    ¡° Moreover, he appeared in front of Sun Chuanting all day long as if he had been deceived, which made Sun Chuanting feel extremely guilty.

    Yes, what he did was unethical, but Sun Chuanting couldn't say anything about his emperor's actions.  After all, he was still Zhu Shangwu's minister.

    But once he faced Zhao Hongyu, Sun Chuanting would unconsciously shrink down.

    And every time Zhao Hongyu comes into contact with Sun Chuanting, he always does this intentionally or unintentionally.  To be honest, it was just his bad taste, and he did not intend to embarrass Sun Chuanting, a historical celebrity.

    In fact, it was not only Sun Chuanting who was embarrassed when facing Zhao Hongyu, but also Yang Fengyi felt that what her emperor did was very unethical.

    Wu Sangui didn¡¯t have much reaction to this.

    In his opinion, this matter has nothing to do with him at all.

    Because it is already spring, the frozen soil in the north has begun to thaw and become soft, which is perfect for carrying out land construction in such a season.

    Of course Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t want to waste time.

    So, here in Jincheng, people are involved in the construction in full swing.

    Half of the 25,000 imperial soldiers under Jay Chou were allocated to form a construction corps.

    Zhao Hongyu used the cheating device to purchase a large amount of cement and bricks without anyone noticing, and prepared sufficient materials to provide a strong foundation for construction.

    As a soldier of the empire, no one objected to His Highness¡¯s arrangement.

    In the structure of the Song Empire, Zhao Hongyu can be said to be a very special existence.

    And the people of Ming Dynasty who gathered on the road and followed them also joined the construction tide one after another.

    "Compared to the imperial soldiers who followed orders, the people of the Ming Dynasty, numbering around 30,000 in total, took a fancy to the fact that they had to work and have food to eat.

    Yes, these Ming people, who were originally good people in Liaodong, became homeless due to the invasion of Hou Jin in winter.

    Now they have nothing.

    If they don¡¯t find a job here, they will all starve to death in a few days.

    In the face of survival and death, they certainly know what kind of choice is wise.

    ¡°Besides, the price offered by these people from a different country is very fair. If an adult works for a day, he can get three kilograms of rice, plus three bags of pickles, and fifty cents.

    ¡°If nothing else, just these three kilograms of rice are enough to fill a family of five¡¯s stomachs without going hungry.

    And pickles can give them the necessary salt intake.

    With the fifty cash salary, you can also buy some other side dishes and meat. This is considered a very good income.

    Even in normal times, they would not be able to earn so much money by doing work.

    Fifty cents a day is equivalent to 1,500 cents a month, which is equivalent to one and a half silver.

    Of course, this is the official price.

    But usually according to folk conversion, this fifteen hundred penny can be exchanged for two taels of silver.

    ¡°Look, earning two taels of silver a month is considered a very high income.

    Therefore, it is impossible for the people of Ming Dynasty not to be moved.

    ¡°Besides, in addition to the money, they also gave me three kilograms of rice and three bags of pickles, right?

    ¡°And on the construction site, people are still responsible for three meals a day.

    This is simply unbelievable.

    Of course, there are only a few people who can get such treatment. It is a treatment for the strong.

    The more you do, the more benefits you will get.

    Zhao Hongyu is not an idiot. Although he is very rich and it is easy to get money, he will not use it in such a reckless way.

    ??Besides, if you spoil these people with a lot of money, wouldn't it be difficult to control them in the future?

    So, Zhao Hongyu would not make such a mistake.

    "For people who can get such treatment, among the refugees who came to Jincheng with the army, there are less than 3,000 people."?Enjoy it.

    The remaining old, weak, women, children and children, although they can do some work within their ability, they cannot enjoy such treatment.

    Regarding Zhao Hongyu¡¯s arrangements, he is not very demanding. The main thing is to prevent these people from being idle.

    This person is afraid of being idle.

    If you are free, you will cause a lot of trouble.

    Therefore, in order to avoid such trouble, Zhao Hongyu mobilized the more than 30,000 refugees and found something for them to do.

    The strong can do manual labor on the construction site, while the old and weak can wash clothes, cook, sew, and mend.

    The children are also easy to arrange. They can work together as a group to move bricks.

    Well, in this era there is no such thing as prohibiting the use of child labor, so Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t have to worry about causing unnecessary trouble on this point.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Because the children can also eat three meals at the construction site, this can save the family a lot of money.

    Although they are small and weak, it is very easy to make five or six cents in a day.

    Several children team up and receive a small trolley at the construction site, then they can do such brick work.

    You see, it¡¯s not that simple.

    So, at dozens of construction sites here in Jincheng, you can see children pushing carts filled with bricks.

    ??The fine decorations of the refugees are basically digging earth, or using manpower to mix cement.

    The Imperial soldiers are the main backbone of the construction.

    Because they can understand the drawings and know how to build a more modern cement and steel building.

    It would be impossible to leave this matter to the workers of Daming.

    According to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s vision, the future Jincheng will be a fortress-style city.

    It can be said that this city has all the advantages of living and responding to enemy attacks.

    After all, Jincheng is too close to Shengjing, the capital of the Later Jin Dynasty.

    If we don¡¯t build the city better, wouldn¡¯t it be very passive if the Houjin Eight Banners cavalry attacks in the future?

    ??Besides, Jincheng has basically fallen into the hands of the empire, and it can be regarded as an important stronghold of the empire in the Eastern Continent.

    ¡°If we don¡¯t build such an important stronghold to be stronger, we would be really sorry for ourselves and our country.

    Unlike the busy guys, Zhao Hongyu is very leisurely.

    Things like physical labor are not his turn to do personally.

    His identity lies here, doesn¡¯t it?

    Even Sun Chuanting, Yang Fengyi and Wu Sangui were assigned to security patrols. Jay Chou took the remaining 10,000, 2,000 and 500 imperial troops in charge of training and security every day.

    " Only Zhao Hongyu, his accompanying adjutants, and the maids brought from the capital were the only ones left at leisure.

    Sarah and Emma, ??when Zhao Hongyu left the capital, had already left for the Tongzhou Canal to take a boat back to Kyushu.

    The reason why Zhao Hongyu didn't let the two of them follow him was because considering that Jincheng was too close to Houjin, he was worried that there would be some unexpected dangers.

    Fortunately, the two women, one large and one young, are very reasonable, which saves Zhao Hongyu a lot of words.

    Just like that, a month passed in the blink of an eye.

    The construction here in Jincheng can be regarded as taking a preliminary shape.

    A complex of more than 30 five-story cement brick structures has been erected, and has formed a community model, but these buildings have not been renovated and are just rough houses.

    But even so, these houses shocked Sun Chuanting and the others.

    First of all, the style of this house is very different from the architecture of the Ming Dynasty.

    At the same time, the layout of the house is completely different.

    And these houses are very strong.

    At the same time, such high-rise buildings are still rare in Daming.

    Basically, the places where everyone lives are bungalow-style buildings.

    Even if there are high-rise buildings, they are only two or three floors at most, and the two-story buildings are the most common.

    Of course, there are also high-level officials.

    But those are just towers and other buildings, and they are not used to house people at all.On the other hand, the houses built by the Song people are different. These houses can be lived in.

    However, in Sun Chuanting's opinion, these houses are a bit too small.

    Yes, the crown prince Zhao Hongyu said that these buildings are basically two-bedroom and one-living buildings. If they are crowded, they can accommodate a family of five.

    This is simply to make these Ming people live in shacks.

    But fortunately, these houses are provided free of charge. Having a free house as your home, what else can the refugees be dissatisfied with.

    You can¡¯t build a big house for these people. This is obviously impossible.

    Well, in fact, according to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan, the common people who followed the army to Jincheng were placed in such a community.

    It doesn¡¯t cost any money anyway, but you can¡¯t make the house too small.

    There are more than 30,000 people, enough to build ten garden communities.

    By then, you can collect property management fees every month, which is also an income.

    It¡¯s just that there was no running water in this era, so the toilet problem in the house cost Zhao Hongyu a lot of brain cells. Fortunately, the problem was solved in the end.

    The solution is to dig wells and then dig sewer drainage facilities.

    There must always be some job opportunities here in Jincheng.

    ¡°Well, when the time comes, we can let these residents do this.

    ¡°No one knows that Zhao Hongyu actually started a loss-making real estate business in Jincheng.

    Even Jay Chou was surprised by this.

    However, as long as Zhao Hongyu is happy, Jay Chou will not say anything.

    After all, Zhao Hongyu is his boss.

    During this month, the construction of Jincheng was carried out in an orderly manner.

    And in Shengjing, eight hundred miles away from Jincheng, a storm of power struggle is blowing (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
