Infrastructure Throne

Not far away, the guards were divided into groups and patrolled around the camp.

The camping convoy lit up a bonfire, and the fire flickered so that half of the city lord's face was reflected. His expression was flat, and he couldn't see any joy or anger, but his gaze fell straight on Shen Qingze's bow-knotted finger.

Shen Qingze had no choice but to uncover the gauze round by round, her fingertips were as clean as jade, only a faint reddish less than one centimeter, almost a magnifying glass was needed to see the broken skin.

Shen Qingze said calmly: "I said it's fine... They made a fuss out of a molehill."

After a long time, Yan Zui stretched his brows, and let out an indistinct chuckle from his nose.

No one noticed, he supported the axle with one hand, climbed onto the carriage nimbly, got in before Shen Qingze could speak, and did not forget to close the door behind him.

The big white dog turned his head to look at the re-closed door, and lay back on his stomach as if he hadn't seen anything.

Yaya was originally gnawing on the earthworms, and when he saw his face drunk, he immediately dropped Shen Qingze and the earthworms, happily rushing over to rub them, but was grabbed by the nape of the neck by the displeased owner.

"Chirp!"

Shen Qingze covered the duck's head with one hand, and stared at him with a frown: "The City Lord left the City Lord's Mansion alone and followed me all the way. Could it be that he just made a special trip to ask about my injury?"

"Guess." Yan Zui didn't answer directly.

He supported the car wall with his left hand, leaned over slowly, and moved closer to Shen Qingze, his lips curled up with a tinge of red that seemed to be a smile but not a smile:

"Because of you, all the nobles in the city exploded, but you are good. I left the mess of the aftermath, patted my ass and left without saying hello."

His voice was deliberately lowered, his scorching breath blended in the narrow space, Shen Qingze was surrounded by the other party's arms and the square inch of the pillow, neither moving nor not moving.

Wen Yan coughed lightly: "I asked Fan Mizhou to tell you."

"Oh? I thought you were afraid of seeing me." Yan Zui squinted his eyes halfway, and suddenly grabbed the "injured" finger of the other party, looked carefully, and smiled.

"Master Priest is really bad. He actually came up with such a way to punish Boya."

Shen Qingze withdrew his fingers, and said without changing his face: "To each other, to each other. Viscount Boya said that I was used as a gunman. I think what he said is reasonable. I will put on a bad face and beat those greedy moths. Come out again and put on a bad face to appease people."

He slowly smoothed the yellow hair that exploded on the duck's forehead, and said quietly: "Look, I didn't give you a mess, I clearly gave you a chance to buy people's hearts. The city owner should thank me."

Yan Zui smiled, and slowly straightened up: "You also said that you are a bunch of moths, do you need to bribe them? Besides, if you come forward, I will help others, and we are also mutually beneficial."

Shen Qingze looked at him indifferently, noncommittal.

At this time, the night is already a bit chilly.

Yan Zui took out a small copper hand warmer from nowhere, and stuffed it into Shen Qingze's cold hands without any explanation, and then took off his armor that was in the way, wearing only a light and tight gown, and squeezed to the other side's side , sharing a cushion.

Ya Ya took the opportunity to sneak into Yan Zui's arms, and took a big mouthful of Ma Ma No. 2's breath in satisfaction.

Shen Qingze raised his eyebrows: "The City Lord has no place to lie down?"

Yan Zui stretched comfortably, almost hitting Shen Qingze in the face: "This is the only carriage in the entire carriage that can sleep. Could it be that the officiant has the heart to watch this city master sleep in the wilderness?"

Shen Qingze held the stove in his pocket, was silent for a moment, and asked: "Are you going to sleep here tonight?"

"Otherwise?" Yan Zui combed the duck's fur, eyes half closed.

Shen Qingze stared at him for a long time: "What exactly are you here for?"

Yan Zui opened his eyes helplessly, and sighed faintly: "Oh, why don't you have any flair at all. Why don't you care whether I'm cold or hungry, and whether I'm tired after following me all this way?"

Shen Qingze pressed the center of his eyebrows, and followed his words: "Is the Lord City Master tired?"

Yan Zui moved closer to him and blinked: "If someone can squeeze my shoulders, rub my waist, etc., maybe I won't be tired."

Shen Qingze: "Hehe."

The big white dog, who was sleeping comfortably on the frame, suddenly pricked up his ears, as if he heard "Ouch" from inside the car, and soon died away.

It turned its head back, stared at the car door suspiciously for a while, and then fell asleep again.

Yan Zui lay on his side on the soft cushion, rubbing his waist with one hand, staring at Shen Qingze faintly with complaints in his eyes, and kept chanting in his mouth: "Where do you come from with such great hands? It's really bad..."

Shen Qingze poured himself a cup of tea slowly, but ignored him: "Good tea."

After rubbing his sore waist for a while, Yan Zui sniffed the fragrance of tea, and opened his mouth without interest:

"Actually, my eyeliner in the mine has already discovered that there is something wrong with the account books they handed in. I suspect that my uncle and Berg secretly smuggled coal and iron ore with Mingzhu City. Over the years, I don't know how much they embezzled."

"You also know that my uncle is quite famous in the city, and my grandma is here. Without hard evidence, it's hard for me to start."

Shen Qingze: "Just send someone to investigate this kind of thing slowly, why bother you to go to Pearl City yourself?"

Yan Zui said: "After the death of the former chief priest, Yan En was afraid of being caught by me, so he became more and more cautious. If I continue to sit in Yuanliu City, he will not dare to move. Instead of me being in the open and they in the dark, why don't you take the initiative to give me a hand?" They have a chance."

"I'll give you half of the share of the mine, and their profits will be greatly reduced. Once we follow the vines in Mingzhu City and find out that smuggling line and destroy it, you will open up a new trade line, and they will cut off their source of income. , definitely can’t sit still.”

Shen Qingze understood, and continued: "Earl Yan En will definitely take advantage of your absence to make some big moves, and then you will take the opportunity to make trouble? Give him a pot? The abacus is quite loud..."

Yan Zui smiled and said nothing.

Shen Qingze said slowly: "But I'm just doing business, so what does it have to do with me?"

Yan Zui said: "The one who can eat your goods must be a big merchant. Do you know how many big weapon dealers there are in Mingzhu City?"

Shen Qingze shook his head honestly: "I don't know."

Yan Zui smiled and propped her cheeks: "I know. When I get to Pearl City, I will find someone to introduce you."

Shen Qingze let out a long "Oh": "At last, the Lord City Lord is still useful."

"Pearl City is the most prosperous city in the Northland. The food we lack is all transported from Pearl City, and most of the ore we sell is also sold to Pearl City."

"As far as I know, the high-level executives of Pearl City have long coveted the minerals near us. How could the owner of the city not pay attention to this powerful and dangerous neighbor?"

Shen Qingze frowned: "You mean, Pearl City is a potential threat to our Yuanliu City?"

What birth point is this?What the hell!

Everyone is the enemy!

The system is so stingy, it doesn't give much rewards, how can it develop under the eyes of the enemy!

Shen Qingze smelled something unusual from these words: "Then if I sell this batch of swords and swords, do I count myself as an enemy?"

Yan Zui calmly said: "That's why I'm going to introduce you to a suitable arms dealer. In terms of power conflicts, the interior of Mingzhu City is not monolithic."

"Pearl City is a big city, and the accumulation of wealth over many generations far exceeds that of a small city like Yuanliu City."

"If the goods from your ironworks are sold well, not only will you get a lot of money and food to help us survive the winter, but you will also have the opportunity to find an ally in Pearl City."

He paused slightly, looked far away, and suddenly called the other party's name: "Shen Qingze, you have many secrets."

Shen Qingze raised his eyebrows, but did not speak.

Yan Zui slowly said: "Since you appeared, your outlandish ideas and things you did, our Yuanliu City has undergone great changes, although it is not obvious now, but I can feel that the future of Yuanliu Liucheng must be beyond my imagination..."

Shen Qingze: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Yan Zui looked him straight in the eyes: "If you are really the descendant of the legendary Great Xia Emperor, I think you will not be willing to stay in a dangerous and poor marginal city, right? People like you, even if it is Pearl City , will also be honored as a guest of honor.”

Shen Qingze laughed: "Could it be that the Lord of the City is afraid that I dislike the poor and love the rich, and when I see the prosperity of Pearl City, I will never look back? That's why you come here?"

Yan Zui lowered his head and played with the duck's little wings, but he didn't speak for a while.

After a while, he asked softly, "Will you leave...?"

[System: The player triggers the prerequisites for binding the main city! 】

Shen Qingze was taken aback.

[System: Congratulations to the player for being approved by the city lord and meeting the prerequisites for binding to the main city.Players can decide whether to bind or not. Once bound, the player will form a relationship with the main city. Players can upgrade the main city. Once the main city’s symbol, the Lord’s Mansion, is breached by the enemy, the player will be punished with ruin. ! 】

Shen Qingze was both surprised and delighted, the main city gameplay was one of the initial ideas for the development of "Dawn Century", and it has been lying in the planning case.

The freedom of the game "Dawn Century" is extremely high. Players can develop their own occupations and skills and become a well-known powerhouse in the mainland, or they can choose to sit in a city and dominate one side.

He quickly opened the main panel and checked the main city system description:

[After the player is bound to the main city, they can freely choose a certain coordinate, use the quick city return skill, and the cooldown time is 30 days. 】

[Players can view all resources within the main city, including hidden resources. 】

[Players can spend gold coins to upgrade the city defenses of the main city, carry out municipal infrastructure construction, and build new infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, warehouses, docks, prisons, and drainage systems. 】

[Players can obtain a certain amount of currency through foreign trade in the main city and deposit it in your private warehouse. 】

Get extra currency!

Shen Qingze immediately lifted his spirits.

There are still many explanations to follow, now is not the time to take a closer look, Shen Qingze just browsed through it roughly.

Thinking of the various benefits of the main city system, Shen Qingze's heart was filled with enthusiasm, wishing to devote himself to his great cause of building the city now!

[System: Are you binding Yuanliu City as your main city?Once the main city is bound, it cannot be canceled. Whenever a player occupies a new city, it can be re-bound. 】

Shen Qingze chose yes without hesitation.

[Congratulations to the player for binding the main city for the first time and taking the first step to dominate one side!You will get a lucky draw chance in the treasure house and a random skill reward. 】

[Random skill reward: Probing.Some advantageous attributes and skills of the target can be detected.The higher the player's level, the easier the investigation will be, and the more information will be obtained. 】

Shen Qingze almost laughed out loud, he was so sleepy and sent a pillow, isn't this the most practical skill for him to recruit talents?

He couldn't help but glance at Yan Zui, he had a question buried in his heart for a long time - how high is this guy's charm?

Ever since Yan Zui asked that question, she didn't wait for Shen Qingze's answer.

Sure enough, he shouldn't have wishful thinking from the very beginning.

The long silence was a kind of torment, Yan Zui lowered his eyes, and his heart gradually sank.
