v2 Chapter 51： Please come to the door

Tang Zhen had heard before that the border of Daqi was in chaos, and the enemy troops kept launching invasions.

On the surface, it seems that it is a battle between countries, but behind it is the promotion of practitioners.

They want to seize territory so that they can get more offerings.

Tang Zhen is not particularly clear about the specific situation, but he knows that it is definitely ordinary people who suffer.

Affected by the war, the Daqi border was in chaos, villages and towns were reduced to ruins, and a large number of refugees were forced to migrate.

These are the refugees in front of them, who have fled all the way from the border.

Along the way, the government did not intend to accept the refugees, but continued to forcefully expel them.

Once refugees are taken in, it creates enormous pressure and is likely to cause even greater chaos.

Therefore, they were driven away, and even provided food specially, just so that these refugees could stay away.

Out of desperation, the refugees had to go all the way and finally came to Huangshan County.

This is also the main reason why all of a sudden, a large number of refugees arrive.

For Tang Zhen, refugees were never a burden, and he dared to accept them no matter how many.

When Loucheng was promoted to the second level, Tang Zhen needed more residents.

The basic number reaches 100,000, and there is no upper limit, which is one of the requirements for promotion to a third-level building.

It sounds simple, but it is very difficult to do because these 100,000 people are official residents.

Becoming an official building city resident is not something that can be done by giving an identity, but requires meeting certain standards.

The most basic point is that loyalty must be up to standard.

Tang Zhen set up a grading system, guided them step by step, and gave them sufficient benefits.

The real purpose of this is to cultivate enough loyalty to buy people's hearts by spending money.

Don't think that the method is very low-end. In fact, this is the reality. If you can't get enough benefits, who will work hard with him.

The world is full of hustle and bustle, and it is all for the sake of profit. This is the truth.

It can be said that Tang Zhen has been spending money since the establishment of Loucheng, and he will need to invest more money in the future.

Lou Ling understood the master very well, and deliberately reminded Liu Hanyan during the mission and asked her to help make money together.

Seeing the scene of the refugees smiling and queuing up to sign up, Tang Zhen confirmed that he was lucky.

Compared with other candidates, refugees are actually a better choice. They have lost everything and can more easily make a fortress home.

For less money, you can get a higher conversion rate, which is undoubtedly the greatest consolation.

Tang Zhen is very short of money now.

Although not long ago, he had just turned five million from the hands of the rich woman Liu Hanyan, but in a blink of an eye, it was all spent.

Loucheng advanced to one million.

After being promoted to the second-level building city, one million silver taels must be reserved to maintain daily consumption.

The purchase of various materials needs to be deducted from this fund, and if it is less than 100,000, it needs to be replenished immediately.

If you want to maintain the operation of the building, you really need a lot of silver taels, and you need to spend money on food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

Even if the products on the cornerstone platform are cheap, many items are sold at the price of cabbage, but the variety is also a huge sum of money.

The more residents in the building, the greater the daily consumption.

The current residents of Loucheng do not have a strong ability to make money, and everything needs to be worried about Tang Zhen, the city owner.

When the residents grow up and can help make money, Tang Zhen will have the opportunity to be a shopkeeper.

Just like cultivating a fruit tree, there must be investment in the early stage, but eventually there will be flowering and fruiting.

Tang Zhen was looking forward to that day.

With three million taels left, Tang Zhen took out another one million taels and directly smashed the Refining God realm to the full level.

Up to one hundred thousand taels, the price can be said to be quite fair.

If calculated according to this standard, Tang Zhen's promotion to the Infant Transformation Realm would require one million taels per level.

It doesn't sound cheap, but if other cultivators know about it, they will definitely be envious.

However, this opportunity can only be enjoyed by Tang Zhen alone. Even if outsiders spend ten times the price, they are not eligible to enjoy this upgrade benefit.

Guadilla

There are still two million taels left, which is not too small, at least it can be used for a while.

The problem is that the current external environment is far more dangerous than imagined. Although Yunxiao Sect has not been looking for trouble for the time being, a bigger hidden danger is coming.

Whether it is a cultivator in the northern border or these sects in the southern border, Tang Zhen must be extra careful to prevent the other party from taking the initiative to ask for trouble.

In order to protect the safety of the building, he must upgrade his defense level and add some powerful defensive weapons.

The first is the defensive circle, which is an option that must be upgraded.

The protection array of the second-level building city can only protect the building city itself, and can resist the attack of the cultivator at the level of the infant.

Such a defensive force is already quite powerful, and the mountain protection formations of many sects are far inferior.

For Tang Zhen, it was far from enough.

He needs a higher-level protective array, which can not only defend the city, but also include the entire territory.

This level of protection array, the cornerstone platform is also available for sale, and just like Tang Zhen's practice, it is an upgradeable type.

The original version is one million taels, which can cover all the territory of the building and can be automatically activated at any time.

If you are willing to spend money to upgrade, the defense standard can be continuously improved. As long as the money is in place, even gods can't break in.

Such a protective array perfectly satisfies Tang Zhen's needs, and he naturally has no reason to refuse.

After purchasing the protective array, Tang Zhen only had one million left in his pocket, but he still had a lot of money to spend.

With a sturdy shield, a sharp spear must also be provided. While blocking the enemy, it must also give a sharp counterattack.

The best defense is to attack, which can kill the enemy and force it back, and the crisis encountered will be resolved accordingly.

It can also act as a deterrent, so that the enemy does not dare to offend easily.

This sum of money must be spent, not only to protect the building, but also to protect Tang Zhen himself.

After browsing on the cornerstone platform, Tang Zhen spent the last one or two silver and bought a "satellite" hanging in the sky.

It is not a real satellite, but has similar functions, and its main function is to launch attacks on the enemy.

It collects all kinds of energy on weekdays, and launches a death beam when attacking the enemy, which can be said to be extremely powerful.

With this space-based weapon that guards the home, even if a strong enemy launches a surprise attack, Loucheng is fully capable of defending and repelling.

With his back against the cornerstone platform, but still being bullied and unable to raise his head, that only proves that Tang Zhen is too useless.

He doesn't want to live cautiously, but to be truly invincible.

No matter what the other party's identity is, as long as they dare to provoke themselves, they must pay a painful price.

The money was spent cleanly, but Tang Zhen felt very comfortable, because all the money was spent on the blade.

The next thing to do is to make money happily, and strive to reach the standard of being promoted to the third-level building.

Paying 100 million taels of silver and having 100,000 official residents of a building can be promoted to a third-level building.

Build a tower of 1,000 taels, be promoted to the second level by one million, and be promoted to the third level and jump directly to 100 million.

This also made Tang Zhen ponder secretly, what kind of harsh conditions would he need to be promoted to a higher-level building?

It is good to say that it needs silver taels, no matter if it is one billion or ten billion, there will eventually be a chance to get it together.

I'm afraid that I don't need silver taels, but to replace it with other things, which is really a headache.

Fortunately, Tang Zhen has enough confidence that even if he encounters a big problem, he will definitely be able to find a solution.

Tang Zhen was standing at the head of the bridge, thinking about it in secret, but suddenly felt a monk approaching quickly.

Looking up at the sky, I saw a few monks riding on Linghe, flying towards the location of Loucheng.

Perceiving the other party's aura and demeanor, he seems to be very flustered, and he is likely to suffer serious trauma.

Several figures followed closely behind, driving a giant eagle with a white head and black feathers, with a menacing attitude.

It seems that the group of monks who are driving the Black Eagle is obviously chasing and killing the enemy.

Tang Zhen frowned slightly, and immediately guessed the camp of the two sides, which was likely to be the northern border monks and the southern border alliance.

Although the future is inevitable, Tang Zhen at this moment does not want to be involved in the battle between the two sides.

"This is a private territory, practitioners should avoid it immediately, otherwise they will be severely punished!"

Tang Zhen's warning was issued, and at the same time he released the power of the Refinement Realm, forcing the two groups of cultivators to take a detour.
