Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

"The imperial edict has been issued, and my soldiers have withdrawn."

Yang Jian frowned, his eyes filled with a feeling of helplessness.

"You mean, our business is going to stop?"

Lin Yi sighed. Although his efforts had been accepted by Yang Jian, they were ultimately no match for an imperial edict.

"I will abide by the contract."

Yang Jian said, "Our army needs Dayong's goods."

"You can continue to do business with us."

"I will arrange for the grain officer and some quartermasters to deliver the goods."

He explained, "I also hope your army can cooperate. You must report this matter to the government and the army."

Yang Jian was not willing to give up these entertainment city and the various imaginative goods made by Lin Yi.

"I know."

Lin Yi nodded and said, "But you just have to be careful."

Although business could not be done openly, Yang Jian still maintained his integrity as a general.

The next morning, Yang Jian took all the soldiers who were resting in the entertainment city away.

The two countries seem to have returned to a state of hostility.

But secretly, the two sides still share what they have with each other.

Soldiers from both sides were helping to provide cover, and trade between the two sides continued uninterrupted.

There are even many soldiers who choose to play in the entertainment city after disguising themselves.

Winter is coming.

Heavy snow covered the entire north.

Lin Yi began to design his next plan in his exclusive room at the hotel.

A football field, even with stands...

Based on his memories of his previous life, he designed the game of "transforming Cuju into football".

Selling tickets and peripheral products is the most profitable!

In addition to the football field, Lin Yi also plans to build more houses and even create an entertainment town outside the city.

Cycling races, official chess competition venues, running races...

All these flashed through Lin Yi's mind.

"Lin Yi, I have something to tell you."

Huangfu Qingling pushed the door open and walked in.

Although they were both busy with their own things these days, she missed Lin Yi very much.

Many times, she even wanted to put aside the tedious government affairs and let Lin Yi accompany her to the entertainment city.

Several times, she arrived at Lin Yi's door but did not go in.

Because she was a little tired of the casino and didn't know what to play.

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Lin Yi stretched and looked at the numerous design drawings in the room, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Privately, I forbid you to address me as Your Majesty."

Huangfu Qingling spoke slowly, but became interested in Lin Yi's design drawings scattered on the ground.

"what are these?"

Although she understood the instructions, she didn't understand what Lin Yi wanted to do.

"Compete and earn tickets."

Lin Yi explained briefly, "I plan to build a few simpler venues outside the city and hold some competitions to attract people to participate and watch the games."

"Is it this bicycle race?"

Huangfu Qingling suddenly became interested.

She rode a bicycle and fell in love with it.

"I'm planning on doing this first."

Lin Yi replied slowly, "After setting up the line, we can also repair the road along the way."

“If you want to get rich, you have to build roads first.”

This idea made Huangfu Qingling's eyes light up. She had never heard of such a statement before.

"how do I say this?"

she asked immediately.

“I’m confined to one city now.”

"Whether it's money, people, or scale, everything is limited."

Lin Yi explained slowly, "Only by completely opening up the roads can we unite the cities in the north and south."

"Every city has an entertainment center, and they develop in cooperation with each other."

Although Huangfu Qingling did not understand these words, she could still make sense of them by analyzing them.

"So what's this bike race got to do with it?"

Huangfu Qingling nodded slightly, understanding the principle of building roads first to make the people rich, but she still didn't understand the cycling race.

"Through the competition, we can build the road."

“Nowadays, most of the roads outside the city are dirt roads, which are not as good as the stone roads inside the city.”

Lin Yi told his plan, "What if we use cement to build the road?"

These words touched Huangfu Qingling's heart.

The strength and durability of cement are obvious to all.

If it is used to repair roads, it can indeed make the worn roads look brand new!

Tickets can be sold for the competition, and the government doesn’t have to pay for road construction!

This is definitely a win-win approach.

Thanks to Lin Yi's supermarket, the people of Liangzhou City have become accustomed to bicycles, and many people even own bicycles.

"Okay, I'll have the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works come over to discuss this with you."

"For this competition, we should use your name, Lin Yi."

Huangfu Qingling agreed immediately, and she, who had been frowning, actually smiled.

"However, Lin Yi, I must remind you that my brother has already won and will be back soon."

"You also have to go back to the capital with me."

she reminded.

"After Prince Qing returns, at the latest one year!"

"That's what I promised you."

Lin Yi replied, "I hope Your Majesty still remembers."

"Of course I remember, but I don't want you to default on your debt."

Huangfu Qingling became a little more serious. "Okay, let's not talk about these things anymore. I'm very bored. Do you have anything to entertain me?"

The reason she came this time, besides reminding Lin Yi not to forget to go back to the capital with her, was actually out of boredom.

It was good that she had not seen so many things in the capital.

Now I am even tired of going to the entertainment city and don’t know what else there is to play.

"Football."

Lin Yi said, taking out several other design drawings, "This is how I modified the gameplay of Cuju. It's not difficult to put together a temporary venue."

After all, a lot of soil was dug up when the community was built. Now the area around Liangzhou City is all flat land!

“There are just more people.”

After adding this sentence, Huangfu Qingling was still looking at the rules.

The rules of these football games really interested her.

It not only exercises the body, but also emphasizes teamwork and even applies military tactics...

She developed an endless interest in football.

I didn’t expect that a small game like Cuju would become so interesting after Lin Yi’s changes!

Immediately, Huangfu Qingling called Bao Bu Tong and several skilled officials from the Ministry of Justice, and gathered a total of ten people. They set up a place outside the city, put up a fence and a high roof, and started preparing.

In the middle of the night, under the light of torches, Huangfu Qingling and Lin Yi started playing football.

At the beginning, Lin Yi showed amazing skills, but as Bao Bu Tong and Huangfu Qingling quickly understood the rules of the game, Lin Yi's skills became mediocre.

Just when they were having fun, a figure slowly approached.

"who?"

The officers and soldiers holding torches and protecting the area roared, attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone stopped playing football and ran towards the source of the sound.

But they saw Yang Jian, covered in wounds, limping before them.
