Lin Yi walked to an area where there were more refugees and shouted, "These foods and drinks were prepared by me and the government, and are given to everyone for free."

The polite words at the beginning did not attract any attention, but Lin Yi's subsequent offer of free food and drinks attracted a large number of refugees.

Lin Yi achieved his goal.

A large number of refugees began to line up for relief. Many of them had hot meals and even some woolen clothes to wear.

"Everyone, Master Lin has something to say!"

Bao Bu Tong looked at the smiling faces of the people and felt that the time was almost up, so he began to announce things.

"Dear brothers and sisters, you have suffered in Liangzhou City."

Lin Yi closed the distance between them with an opening statement, "In the final analysis, this is the fault of King Qi."

Immediately, the refugees became excited and all agreed with Lin Yi.

If it weren't for the damn King of Qi, how could they be forced to flee here?

Then, Lin Yi began to explain his purpose, "I have already purchased the deeds for some land outside Liangzhou City, and I plan to build houses for you all."

"As long as you participate, you will all have a place to live in the future!"

Hearing this, the refugees immediately stood up and gathered around Lin Yi.

"Master Lin, as long as we can have food and shelter, we are willing to follow you!"

"Master Lin, if you go east, we will never go west!"

……

This actually seems like Lin Yi is recruiting the team.

"Don't get me wrong, this is the Emperor's intention."

“I’m just responsible for doing things.”

Lin Yi explained immediately, otherwise the rumor of his rebellion would spread like wildfire. "I need your help in building the house. During this period, as long as you participate, I will take care of your food and accommodation."

"If you have an idea, then sign up and write your name and what you would do."

Lin Yi said this and pointed to the official who was in charge of taking notes.

This person was also an official from the Ministry of Personnel who had fled, and he also had certain abilities as a recorder and manager.

After these were settled, the scene was handed over to the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Personnel.

The rest are helped by some Ministry of Revenue.

The people from the Ministry of Industry had already followed Lin Yi to a room in the hotel and started planning the construction of several houses outside the city.

"Boss Lin, how can such a small piece of land be enough for so many refugees?"

A minister of the Ministry of Works frowned when he saw the land that Lin Yi bought on the map.

So does everyone else.

The land Lin Yi bought can only accommodate a few hundred people at most, but there are tens of thousands of refugees here. How to solve the problem?

“What I want to build is called a community.”

"A small area that includes housing and various basic shops."

Lin Yi didn't bother to explain, but started to explain, "If there isn't enough land, then we can build the house higher."

After hearing this, the people from the Ministry of Industry immediately remembered that they were now in a seven-story hotel!

They didn't have the confidence to build such a tall building, but as long as Lin Yi was there, they had confidence.

"First, we need to plan the house and build it into eight stories with an elevator."

"I know how to design this house. Let's plan the entire neighborhood first."

As Lin Yi spoke, he began to draw on the white paper.

Others also began to count how many stores a community should have.

Everyone worked hard and soon came up with a plan for the community, from the ground to the underground, from houses to roads.

More people means easier work. It would have taken Lin Yi several days to plan the community, but this time it only took him more than an hour!

It just so happened that Huangfu Qingling came to inspect.

"See Your Majesty."

The Minister of Works knelt down immediately.

Lin Yi also turned around.

"Lin Yi, how are the designs of those houses?"

Huangfu Qingling actually couldn't stand the loneliness and didn't want to go out to play, so she came to inspect Lin Yi's work situation.

“The general area has been designed.”

"Your Majesty, please take a look."

Lin Yi's design drawings were clean and clear, and even Huangfu Qingling, who knew nothing about construction, could understand them.

There is a "community" in the northwest and northeast of Liangzhou City, and the one in the northeast will be built first.

There are a total of twenty houses in this community, eight stories high, with living space for six families on each floor.

In contrast, the area of ​​each family in these houses is much smaller and can basically only accommodate basic living and storage.

Moreover, some houses located at the entrances and exits have shops on the first floor, where food, drinks, clothing, and tool stores are opened.

With these twenty houses as the main body, there are also some four-story long houses in a row around them, which can be regarded as walls and can also block the living area.

Finally, the road from Liangzhou City to this community will also be repaired...

"You designed it in just one hour?"

Huangfu Qingling frowned slightly, which made these assistant ministers of the Ministry of Works feel that this was too slow.

"Your Majesty, this project is enormous. If it weren't for Lord Lin, it would probably take even longer..."

They spoke one after another.

"I just think you guys are getting faster."

Huangfu Qingling smiled and waved her hand, "If we were to do the disaster relief and reconstruction in the past, you wouldn't be able to do this in less than a month."

"This is all thanks to Lord Lin!"

The assistant ministers of the Ministry of Works did not dare to take credit for themselves.

With Lin Yi's standardized drawings, the drawings drawn by each Minister of Works can understand each other, and there is no need to waste time and effort explaining to each other, so the speed is naturally faster.

"Now that you're ready, let's get started."

Huangfu Qingling said, "I just went to take a look at Bao Bu Tong's place. The refugees have all signed up."

"I wonder if it's registered with the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

"How many people in total?"

Lin Yi asked again.

"Quite a bit."

"I heard from them that there should be 12,000 people."

Huangfu Qingling said this and looked at Lin Yi, "How many people can these designs of yours accommodate?"

"At most, there should only be about 3,000 people in one community."

Lin Yi replied, "It depends on the details, so I plan to build one in each direction."

"Large-scale construction projects would not have been possible in the past during wartime."

Huangfu Qingling nodded slightly, "However, if you can mobilize these people, there will be no problem."

Afterwards, Lin Yi spent a little money to buy two pieces of land located in the southeast and southwest of Liangzhou City, and started construction from the northeast.

As the refugees followed them out, outside Liangzhou City, the area where the residential community was about to be built was filled with tents and some simple wooden houses.

Lin Yi also went to the construction site in person and began to direct the leveling and compacting of the land.

They even dug down a bit to use as a foundation.

Just at this moment, Xu Chuan came running with his men, with some anxiety on his face.

"Boss Lin, we went to sell materials, but..."

Xu Chuan frowned and saw that Lin Yi was busy, so he wanted to wait a while before talking.

But then Lin Yi stood up and walked over. "What's wrong?"

"We went to sell materials, but the wood and stone were almost all sold out!"

"I heard it's being hoarded by a few merchants!"

Xu Chuan explained nervously.

Because this project was handled by the empress and officials behind the scenes.

But on the surface, it was still the real estate project that Lin Yi had taken over. Even if it was to sell materials, no officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs would come forward. Xu Chuan became the "scapegoat" and bore these unexpected troubles.
