In fact, Yang Guang hesitated for a long time after saying this.

As an emperor, dignity sometimes matters above everything else.

If he was captured by other rebels, such as Li Mi and Dou Jiande, he would never surrender.

But in the past few days, Xu Mu has brought him so much stimulation.

He really wanted to see what this city hidden in the mountains would develop into in the future.

He was in love with power, but after becoming an emperor, it was more like seeing whether Wanmincheng really brought a change to the Great Sui Dynasty as Xu Mu said.

He is the emperor who longs for change and hates success the most.

Therefore, since he ascended the throne, he fought south and north, fighting south and north, fighting Tuyuhun inland, and conquering Ryukyu overseas, and he has expanded his territory wildly.

For talents, we will continue to improve the imperial examination system, crack down on aristocratic families, and promote fairness among poor families.

His biggest mistake is his greed for merit and progress.

But he wanted to complete these things that would take at least hundreds of years and take several emperors to do within decades.

Now, at the age of over 50, the country is full of resentment, and he actually feels a little regretful deep down.

But as the pride of the emperor, he was not allowed to regret it.

He wouldn't be wrong.

It can't be wrong either!

Now, he was caught in Wanmin City for no reason and heard the prophecy that he was about to die in three months...

He made this decision under various circumstances.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Seeing that Comrade Lao Yang finally surrendered, Xu Mu smiled with his hands.

"I got Lao Yang, just like a fish got water."

He held Lao Yang's hand and the two walked down the mine together.

Well, mainly because he was afraid that he would cheat, Xu Mu took him directly to the lord's mansion. On the third floor, there was an office that had been prepared for him.

"This is where you and your old man are on duty. From today on, you will be responsible for the first phase of the Wanmincheng residential area, and you will have a construction team under your jurisdiction."

Xu Mu pointed at the table and asked Lao Yang to sit down directly, and then told him about his job responsibilities.

"What you need to be responsible for is to design architectural drawings, including the architectural appearance of the residential area, the area's land area, the road planning, etc."

Xu Mu gave Lao Yang a brief explanation, but was afraid that he would not understand, so he took out the city planning map he drew some time ago and pointed it at Lao Yang to explain one by one.

Xu Mu kept talking nonstop, quite excited.

After finally fooling a scholar, he must use the essence of a capitalist to crazily drain his surplus value.

After all, this position has not been started due to lack of manpower, the first phase of the residential area project has not been started.

Yang Guang and Lai Hu'er opened their mouths and looked at Xu Mu and said, "I can't even insert my mouth."

Yang Guang originally thought that what Xu Mu said was to recruit him was to be a strategist, but he didn't expect that the job he was responsible for was such a job.

Phase I project in residential areas?

Why does it sound so weird?

After Xu Mu's explanation, he seemed to understand.

Is this to put him in charge of building the palace?

No, no, Xu Mu said, this house was built for residents in Wanmin City to live in.

The houses built like the Lord's Mansion were built using the Raushezi cement to build a four-story house.

He ordered the construction of countless palaces. As the emperor who loves to parade, he has countless palaces all over the country.

When you walk to a certain place, you will order the local palace to be built in advance.

He had seen palaces of all kinds, but had never seen such a strange building.

Including this lord's mansion.

It is square, with edges and corners, completely different from those palaces.

Which palace is not a floating eaves and brackets, red walls and green tiles, which is extremely beautiful?

However, such a building does have some advantages.

First, it expanded the space. There are more than ten "study rooms" like him on the first floor in the lord's mansion.

Although Xu Mu called the study the office.

Secondly, this kind of building structure also saves building materials.

The entire stone structure, combined with cement and some steel, can actually create such a new house.

"How is it? Lao Yang, do you think you can do it?"

After Xu Mu finished his explanation, he looked at Yang Guang expectantly.

After all, he is a scholar. Although he may not be of this major, no one uses Xu Mu anymore.

He has no scholar under him...

Well, I can only feel wronged Lao Yang first, and then fool more scholars into redirecting him.

Xu Mu thought so.

At this time, Yang Guang was also thinking solemnly about whether he should accept this job.

"master……"

Lao Lai was standing aside, staring at Yang Guang with a eager eye.

His eyes were almost begging. If Xu Mu had not been present, he would have knelt down and begged His Majesty not to accept this errand.

Just kidding, I surrendered, not a strategist, but actually... a errand in charge?

Building a house?

This is almost an insult.

The ancients said that when the king was humiliated and his ministers died, as a qualified loyal minister, he should have picked up a knife and committed suicide at this time.

But who told His Majesty not to express his opinion yet?

The most important thing is that the monarch was humiliated, and his minister was also humiliated.

I can only hope that Your Majesty will not accept this errand.

But Yang Guang directly ignored his plea and was stunned when he looked at the planning in Wanmin City.

Because Xu Mu told him a lot just now, his last sentence moved him.

"Old Yang, don't look at Wanmin City now, with your help, plus cement, Wanmin City in the future is another Dongdu!"

He decided to surrender to Xu Mu, and the big reason was that he wanted to see what magical things there were in Wanmin City and what would it look like in the future.

"Well, I have personally built an Eastern Capital, which is now prosperous in Chang'an. Let's see what it can make Wanmin City look like!"

Yang Guang quickly made a decision and accepted the errand.

Xu Mu's construction of Wanmin City is quite similar to Daxing City, which he participated in the construction of during the Kaihuang period, and Luoyang City, which later became the emperor and majored in the Daye period.

Back then, outside Chang'an City, a national project was opened during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty.

It is called Daxing City.

A new city was built, and this city was not well-known in history.

But later it became the capital of the Tang Dynasty, located in Xi'an, Shaanxi in later generations, and was the new Chang'an City!

At this time, Chang'an City and Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty were two different places.

After Li Tang captured the world, he moved the capital one after another, took a fancy to the geographical location of Daxing City, and moved Chang'an City to Daxing City.

Later, Daxing was changed to Chang'an.

After Yang Guang ascended the throne, in the early years of Daye, the construction plan for the new Luoyang was launched again in the outskirts of the old capital Luoyang. It was named Tokyo at that time, but the minister suggested that Beijing was not suitable and it was changed to Dongdu.

Later, the Tang Dynasty won the world and became one of the capitals of the Tang Dynasty.

After seeing Yang Guang nodding, Xu Mu smiled.

He finally succeeded.

Then he looked at Lai Hu'er, patted his shoulder, and encouraged: "Your master is educated and can work in the study room, but you are different. If you are not educated, you should sell more energy. The construction team will be handed over to you. Be sure to let them complete the construction period on time!"

Lai Hu'er looked black and wanted to curse, but... after seeing the two soldiers wearing black armor behind Xu Mu, she chose to follow her heart.

Xu Mu's words actually hit his sore spot.

He died of both his parents since childhood, and he had never read too many books. He relied on his bravery and military tactics to be promoted for his military merits.

After Xu Mu gave in, he left the third floor.
