The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

The driver continued, "The field ahead is potatoes. Potatoes also grow in the soil, and they're eaten similarly to sweet potatoes."

"The piece in front is sesame. Sesame can also be used to make oil. The oil it makes is very fragrant. We call it sesame oil."

"Sesame paste can also be eaten raw as a seasoning, and it tastes delicious."

"The piece in front is soybeans, also known as yellow beans. Soybeans can be used to extract oil and grind into soybean milk. After soaking the soybeans until they sprout, they can be used in cooking."

"The area in front is green beans, red beans, black beans, kidney beans, cowpeas, peas..."

As the driver drove, he introduced the various crops in the fields. The saint listened with great interest and was dazzled by what he saw.

Then, the driver said with a smile, "Sir, the suburbs of Donglai County are just ahead. The fields here are full of vegetables and fruits."

"Sir, look, this one in front is an apple orchard. That one is a pear orchard."

"That one is a cherry orchard, that one is a persimmon orchard. That one is a hawthorn orchard. That one is..."

The driver spoke in a loud voice and patiently introduced the food to the young master.

"Go further and you'll find the vegetable section. Look, this one has Chinese cabbage, this one has cauliflower, and this one has celery."

"This is beans, this is eggplant, this is cauliflower, this is tomato, this is cucumber, this is..."

The saint was amazed when he heard this and couldn't help but feel envious of the residents in the city.

How blessed the people living in a wealthy city must be, being able to eat so many kinds of grains and vegetables every day.

If his studies had not been completed, he would not want to leave here.

Before they knew it, it was already noon and the convoy arrived at Donglai County.

The county magistrate Liu Luxin had already received the news that Zixuan would pass through Donglai County and return to Kyoto, so he waited in front of the city gate early in the morning.

The current Donglai County City has also been transformed into a modern second-tier city.

The city walls and gate towers were also reinforced and renovated, and the gates and gate towers were coated with gold paint.

Liu Luxin and the officials of all ranks in the county were all looking forward to the arrival of their king.

After a while, everyone saw a group of vehicles driving quickly towards the city gate.

"Here they come, my lord, the king and the others are here!"

The officials pointed into the distance and shouted excitedly.

Immediately, everyone straightened their official hats, shook off the dust on their bodies, and prepared to welcome the emperor with a smile.

After a while, the convoy arrived in front of the city gate. After the car stopped, the guards quickly got out and opened the door for Zixuan.

Zixuan lifted his legs lightly and took a high step, then walked down from the golden SUV with elegant manners.

This car was specially made for her by experts in the space, and is equivalent to a motorhome in the modern world.

But it is taller, wider, larger and more luxurious than a motorhome.

The facilities inside are also complete, such as refrigerator, air conditioner, bedroom and bathroom.

Kitchen, dining room, living room, etc. The whole thing is like a mobile presidential suite.

When everyone saw Zixuan get off the carriage, they immediately knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, we greet you. Thank you for your hard work on the journey!"

Zixuan had just fallen asleep on the soft bed in the RV and had just come to his senses.

She raised her hand listlessly: "My dear ministers, please stand up."

"Yes, yes." Everyone stood up, lowered their heads, bent their waists, and listened respectfully to the Marquis's instructions.

Zixuan glanced at Liu Luxin and asked softly, "My dear Liu, how have you been doing as the county governor over the past year or so?"

Liu Luxin quickly stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, I have faithfully followed your instructions throughout the past year, without slacking off in the slightest."

"We have worked closely with the Construction Corps and have completed all planning tasks for Donglai County ahead of schedule."

"Well, very good. I didn't misjudge you, and you didn't disappoint me. Let's go into the city."

"After lunch, I will inspect Donglai County."

After saying that, Zixuan turned around and left, getting into the RV.

Immediately, Liu Luxin and all the officials got on the public cars distributed to them by the king.

During this year, all officials, big and small, in Fugui City were allocated their own houses and cars according to their ranks.

On the way to the county magistrate's office, Zixuan looked at the neat streets and residential areas with tall buildings.

She was very satisfied and kept praising Liu Luxin.

It wasn't long before the group arrived at the gate of the county magistrate's office.

Zixuan got out of the car and looked up at the magnificent government office.

Compared to when I came here a year ago, it is so much more luxurious and grand.

This is exactly the result she wants. She wants every government office and every residential building in her wealthy city to be the best in the world.

She...is not short of money, hehe.

After entering the main hall, Zixuan sat in the first seat. The yamen runners served him tea and then stepped aside.

She looked at Liu Luxin and said, "Lord Liu, please report to me on the work of Donglai County."

"Yes," Liu Luxin agreed, then cleared his throat and said:

"Your Majesty, the entire Donglai County currently has a total population of 253,647."

"There are more women than men, with women outnumbering men four to one. There are over fifty factories of all sizes in the city."

"There are over 100 residential buildings and over 200 shops of various kinds."

"Over fifty hospitals, large and small. Over fifty schools of all kinds. Various... "

Liu Luxin reported all the work in Donglai County in one breath.

Zixuan nodded with satisfaction. Yes, this Liu Luxin is indeed a talented person.

So, after praising the governor a few words, she prepared lunch.

Everyone moved to the restaurant in the county magistrate's office. The restaurant was well decorated and had a rich variety of food.

So everyone had a delicious buffet in the restaurant.

After lunch, Zixuan took a short rest and then inspected various parts of the county city accompanied by Liu Luxin and other officials.

After visiting several places, she found that the planning, construction, and layout of the city were similar to those of Guicheng.

Just as Zixuan finished inspecting the commercial street and was about to go to the next place.

Suddenly, countless arrows flew out from the shops on both sides of the commercial street and shot straight towards Zixuan and Liu Luxin.

As the incident happened suddenly, no one was prepared. The rain of arrows was about to fly towards Zixuan.

At this critical moment, Liu Luxin shouted: "Protect the emperor!"

Immediately, he flew over with lightning speed and knocked Zixuan to the ground.

He used his body to protect her tightly, and at the same time blocked the arrows flying from the sky.

Although Zixuan's body was blocked by Liu Luxin, his arms and thighs were exposed.

After Zixuan was knocked down by Liu Luxin, his head was hit with a loud bang, and his arms and thighs were hit by several arrows.

She felt a piercing pain that immediately spread throughout her body.

At this time, the city guards just reacted. They hurriedly raised their arms and rushed upstairs.

While running, he also used laser guns and electric guns, aiming at the target and shooting.

As the soldiers charged, the rain of arrows from the building gradually stopped.

Zixuan was suffocating under Liu Luxin's pressure, so she pushed him hard and said, "Liu Luxin, please get off quickly. I am having difficulty breathing because of you."
