I Have An Impenetrable Fortress

Zhang Dongyun's statement that Mr. Wu Yun will stay in the city to take charge of the mine is not false.

The matter of the Sirius' Grotto is important, and the matter of the Jade Pine Crystal Vein is equally important right now.

The latter is related to the second upgrade and expansion of Chang'an City.

The blood shadow old devil took away most of the masters in the city, but those who are capable of handling government affairs in the city are basically still there, which does not affect Zhang Dongyun's deployment of the mine veins.

The simplest excavation and mining work was handed over to a group of captives with cultivation base.

The task of excavating, transporting and transiting needs to be carried out by the people in the city.

To be honest, this is also a heavy physical work.

After all, City Lord Zhang didn't level all the mountains and land below the city, and didn't make the ground in the city "lower" to a position close to the mine veins.

Therefore, the mine is more than a thousand meters away from the entrance of the cave above.

Even if Zhang Chengzhu designs some simple machines, the miners still need to work hard.

Of course, under his guarantee, mine accidents cannot happen.

Mr. Wu Yun, who is temporarily in charge of government affairs, gave an order, and Hui Tianyu and others immediately got busy.

Recruitment didn't go well at first.

The people in the city are grateful to Chang'an City for taking them in and donating food.

But when I heard that I was looking for someone to mine mines now, everyone felt scared.

"Back then, Yuzhou government arrested people and went to the mines. None of the people who went there could come back alive. I heard that the people who insisted on the nearest one only lived for three years."

At the market, an old woman's face was full of fear: "It's short, it didn't even survive a year."

"Yes, yes, Erniu from the next township was arrested and taken to the mine a few years ago, and he died that year!

Er Niu is filial, if he is still there, he will definitely be able to recite his blind old mother this time, Er Niu's mother won't be waiting to die! "

"I heard that both the Hai family's father and father in Dazhuang Township have also been arrested, and the Hai family will be extinct right away..."

The people around also echoed.

Hui Tianyu in front of them sighed secretly.

It's no wonder that the people are terrified.

In the past, the death rate of miners was indeed too high.

On the one hand, dangers such as mine accidents are difficult to predict and prevent.

On the other hand, to put it bluntly, they just don't take human life seriously...

As for what is going on in the mines in Chang'an City, even Hui Tianyu dare not guarantee it.

A group of practitioners were thrown into the deepest part of the mine for mining. This matter should be divided into two parts.

To put it bluntly, this manpower who is sympathetic to ordinary people, the heaviest work is done by the prisoners.

At worst, these practitioners can be used as miners, and their lives are not their lives, let alone ordinary people?

A darker thought, Chang'an City accommodates so many refugees, is it just waiting for the matter of mining?

Hui Tianyu shook his head inwardly.

He is willing to believe that Chang'an is not such a dark place.

This is a land of hope.

The one-eyed young man coughed and scanned the surrounding people.

Everyone gradually quieted down.

Hui Tianyu's voice was quiet, neither hurried nor slow:

"Under the rule of Dongtang, under the rule of other people, everyone has to flee famine if they don't have enough to eat. What will happen after we get here?"

Everyone around looked at each other in blank dismay, and the fear in their eyes gradually dissipated.

Hui Tianyu continued: "People outside the city who have already allocated land for farming do not need to participate in recruitment."

Upon hearing this, everyone completely relaxed.

However, Hui Tianyu went on to say:

"There are legitimate earners in the city, and they don't have to participate in the recruitment.

However, all idlers go to the mines, not one less!"

As soon as these words came out, some people were delighted to smile, while others turned pale with shock.

Someone wanted to leave secretly on the spot.

But how could they escape the eyes of Hui Tianyu and others? It was taken down immediately.

Zhang Dongyun himself was standing in the crowd at this moment.

Seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but touch his forehead.

...Hui Tianyu and the others are really simple and rude.

In fact, this is no different from catching a strong man.

However, there are people who applaud among the people.

It's not a day or two for those idle and rascals to be hated by others.

Life in Chang'an City was rich, and there were few rules at the beginning of its establishment, so they quickly reverted to their old ways.

Now being dragged to work in the mine, many people clapped their hands and cheered.

The few petitioners are mostly relatives of those people.

However, they did not dare to stop it.

Facing a cultivator like Hui Tianyu and the authority of Chang'an City, no one dared to stand up.

"You are abusing power! You are persecuting! The Lord of Chang'an cares about the people and will never let you do anything wrong. You will be punished if you lie to others!" Someone who was dragged away shouted loudly.

Then he was hit on the back of the head immediately, and was knocked out and dragged away.

Zhang Dongyun sighed.

Strictly speaking, it is certainly not a crime to be idle, steal and play tricks.

Back then, City Lord Zhang Dacheng's ideal in his previous life was to sleep until he woke up naturally, and count money until his hands cramp.

It's best not to do anything, but still have enough money to eat, drink and have fun.

Ordinary prison inmates are still too few to meet the mine's labor needs.

Right now, I have no choice but to grab some Mi Chong compatriots to top them off first.

They will not be abused in the mine, nor will they be overworked, there will be no danger of mine accidents, and they will have a good income.

After they realize all this and tell other people in the city, people who take the initiative to mine will appear.

For idlers in Chang'an City, a certain city lord is enough.

Zhang Dongyun gave a dry cough and straightened his clothes.

Speaking of prison inmates though...

Zhang Dongyun's heart moved slightly, and he walked to the other corner of the city.

Here, in the dilapidated houses, many people were crowded.

The people in the city either shunned them or retaliated with hatred.

A child threw a stone over there, and was immediately taken away by his own adults the next moment.

But the people in that shack are very numb to this.

They were still wearing Tang Jun's robes.

A middle-aged man walked out of it.

Some people around him saluted him respectfully, while others ignored him.

The middle-aged man came all the way to the market and joined Hui Tianyu:

"Mr. Hui, is there still a shortage of people in the mine? We can help."

The one-eyed youth looked at each other.

A warrior of the fifth realm, facing him, a warrior of the third realm, respectfully.

"General Gao, please wait a moment, I'm planning to go to your side later." Hui Tianyu replied.

The middle-aged man nodded: "Okay, I'm waiting for you sir."

Zhang Dongyun watched this scene from a distance.

The middle-aged man was none other than General Fenwei Gao Qi, the commander-in-chief of the Tang army who attacked the city for the first time.

Xuanwu General Du Kun's deputy.

After the first and second batch of Tang troops who attacked the city were captured, they undertook a large amount of labor for the construction of Chang'an City.

Naturally, their punishment is necessary.

But Zhang Dongyun doesn't intend to waste like this all the time.

In terms of personal feelings, Zhang Dongyun didn't feel much ill at the soldiers who obeyed the command of the general.

These people can also become the citizens of Chang'an City.

So when considering the miners, Zhang Dongyun did not treat them as prisoners in a prison.

However, many officers and men of the Tang army, including Gao Qi, have always been among the prisoners.
