Ning Chen didn't care too much about what conditions Marquis Dingguo and Prince Jing had reached with the old fox.

No matter what conditions are reached, Marquis Dingguo and Prince Jing will only proceed from the level of Wu Dynasty.

I am determined not to make any conditions against my own Baijiacheng.

So whatever conditions they reached, theoretically, have little direct bearing on Ning Chen.

Since it has little to do with him, Ning Chen will naturally not ask again.

If you ask about something that needs to be done by yourself, it will be troublesome.

If you don't refuse, you have to take the risk.

Refuse, no matter Prince Jing or Marquis Dingguo, these two people are the ones Ning Chen can't defeat.

Especially the Marquis of Dingguo.

The Legalists of Marquis Dingguo are now also among Ning Chen's Hundred Schools.

So Ning Chen can check the situation of Legalism.

The Holy Door of Legalism is several times wider than when it was opened that day.

This proves that the strength of Marquis Dingguo is increasing day by day, and he is probably getting closer to the first rank.

Ning Chen can't even beat the second-rank Dingguo Hou, let alone the first-rank one.

Ning Chen did not tell anyone about the fact that Marquis Dingguo was about to be ranked first.

Marquis Dingguo agreed that Legalism should be included in the Hundred Schools, which showed his trust in Ning Chen.

Ning Chen will certainly not betray this trust.

Another point is that Marquis Dingguo is a friend, not an enemy.

The stronger the Marquis Dingguo is, the more secure Ning Chen's safety will be.

As the old saying goes, if the sky falls, someone big will hold it up.

Marquis Dingguo is the big one.

After sending Hu Qing away, Ning Chen also went to Baijia Academy to check on Yun Xuanzi's progress.

Just as Yun Xuanzi and Old Fox said, as long as there are formation diagrams and materials.

Yunxuanzi is not difficult to build at all.

According to the current progress, it should not take a month to complete.

Time passed like this day by day.

It has only been half a month, but Yun Xuanzi has already reached the end.

As for the post-war reconstruction of Baijia City, most of it has been completed with Guo Xin's all-out efforts.

Except there are still some places in the city that need to be renovated.

The city walls and streets have been restored to their original state.

The vitality and fireworks of Baijiacheng are all back again.

And it is more prosperous than before.

In this battle in the north, Ning Chen really showed his prestige.

It has firmly established its reputation as the safest city in the northern part of Baijia City.

A large number of people came to Baijia City, hoping to enter the city.

This made some of the refugees who were still complaining about Baijiacheng's urban rules.

They all had a sense of crisis, but at the same time they felt that they were lucky to hold on.

You must know that they have accumulated a certain amount of points from Baijiacheng.

And those who come later will have to start all over again.

Moreover, rumors have spread within Baijia City that if more people come in later, the points rules will be significantly upgraded and adjusted.

Existing registrants will still maintain the original points rules.

This directly doubled the happiness index of those who insisted on staying before.

Let them work harder and harder.

Under such a virtuous cycle, Baijia City has become the most prosperous city in the four northern states.

In addition, Baijiacheng is the cleanest and neatest city in the entire northern region.

All in all, Baijiacheng was definitely a breath of fresh air in the northern border and even the entire Wu Dynasty.

After a month-long journey by land and water, Liu Zhongzhi and Sun Feilan finally reached the boundary of Baijiacheng.

I have seen too much along the way, after the poverty and desolation in the north.

Mrs. Sun felt increasingly wise about her decision.

Looking at the people around her, Mrs. Sun's spontaneous sense of wisdom came over.

"See, you scholars are easily gullible.

How could the northern border be as poor as Ning Chen said it was?

Just watch, when they get to Baijia City, they will know how wrong they were."

Listening to his wife's show off, Sun Kejian's brows twisted into a knot.

In fact, the northern border that Sun Kejian saw along the way was too bad.

It's worse than I imagined.

In such a general environment, Sun Kejian was also shaken by the information brought back by Ning Chen and the officials who returned from Baijia City.

Sun Kejian knew the power of silver very well.

If Ning Chen really used money to bribe all the officials who came over to deceive the court, it is not impossible.

The amount of silver needed to build a hundred-family city like that is really nothing compared to the amount of silver needed to bribe officials.

Therefore, if Ning Chen really bribed officials for the sake of his own political achievements, it is still possible.

Although Ning Chen's victory over the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom was a great achievement, if Ning Chen was found to have deceived him, Sun Kejian would definitely not be able to rub sand into his eyes.

The crowd marched forward for about three miles when they were stopped by the city defense troops from Baijia City.

"This place is still dozens of miles away from Baijia City. Is it necessary to intercept it here?"

"Is it possible that there is something shady in this Baijia City, that's why we have to come so far to stop him?" Mrs. Sun continued to show off her wisdom and superiority in IQ.

Starting to intercept from such a long distance really made Sun Kejian have some doubts.

After undergoing strict interrogation and inspection, the city defense army did not refuse Sun Kejian and the others to move forward.

There was no mention of taking Sun Kejian and others to other places for questioning.

They just sent one person to follow Sun Kejian and escort them forward.

This made Sun Kejian feel relieved a little.

After walking for a while, a large rice field appeared in front of everyone.

"Is this still dozens of miles away from Baijiacheng? Are all the rice fields cultivated by Baijiacheng so far away?" Someone in the team asked in surprise to the escorting city defense troops.

The city defense army proudly said: "We have reclaimed these rice fields this year, and the area will be expanded again next year."

"With so many rice fields cultivated, are there so many people in Baijiacheng?"

"Is it takeout?"

Mrs. Sun used her own wisdom to guess.

In fact, it's not just Mrs. Sun who thinks so, there are also people in the team who think so, and some people also ask this.

The city defense troops accompanying the team said: "Our Baijia City does not sell food, and the food in our Baijia City is not enough for ourselves.

How could we sell food?

Moreover, among my hundreds of cities, there are businesses that make much more money than selling food.

All this food is eaten by ourselves in Baijiacheng."

Hearing this answer, not only some people were surprised and said: "So much food is not enough to feed Baijiacheng. How many people are there now in Baijiacheng? I heard that there were only more than a thousand people in Baijiacheng at the beginning."

The city defense troops were the old citizens of Baijia City. When they heard such questions, they couldn't hide the pride and pride on their faces.

"You are right, Baijiacheng did have only a thousand people at the beginning."

"But after the arrival of the champion, the population of our Baijia City has continued to increase."

"Especially after this great defeat of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, I heard that in this month alone, 20,000 people entered Baijia City."

"Now, there are reportedly tens of thousands of people queuing up at the back waiting to be reviewed."

Hearing this, even Sun Kejian couldn't help but ask: "How many people are there in Baijiacheng now?"
