Fish swimming around the world

Jiang Fan was dressed very formally, even wearing a royal robe, but what was surprising was that it was not the Zhenxi royal robe, but the dark black regent robe of the Great Qin embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon.

Under the steps, dozens of key figures from Yuzhou stood solemnly, who were the leaders of the twelve cities in Yuzhou.

This was the first time that the heads of the twelve cities had formally met since Yuzhou was named, and the atmosphere seemed formal and solemn.

"Twelve cities in Yuzhou, meet with the Lord——"

Following the order from the beautiful young man in the wheelchair. Thirty-six people all knelt down and paid homage.

"Everyone, please get up -" Jiang Fan slowly spoke after looking around for a week.

"Among you, there are my disciples, my close friends, and those who sincerely rely on me. No matter what your status is, since you can come here, you are trustworthy and worthy of entrustment, and you will be beside me in the future. Fighting, sharing glory, disgrace and wealth..."

His words directly brought the newcomers closer to him, refreshing their spirits and listening attentively.

"Of course, great undertakings in the world can only be accomplished by those with great ambition and courage. Someone must have informed you of my plans before coming here. Now, in person, I declare for the first and last time that in the future, there will be great wealth and honor. But we must seek help in danger. If there are those who do not want to give up their family fortune and cherish their lives, they can leave their posts at this moment."

His eyes were dull, but everyone felt that he seemed to be looking at them.

For a time, the atmosphere became more solemn.

"I will give you a cup of tea. After a cup of tea, those who stand here are my companions. Those who leave will be given generous gifts by my king, but the past will not be taken into account."

As soon as the words were spoken, he closed his eyes and remained silent.

The air below is quiet and you can hear the needle drop.

As time passed by, Jiang Fan felt a little surprised. Because although he closed his eyes, the wolf's ears were now more sensitive, and his strange ability to see emotions became more and more amazing with his cultivation. He could almost hear everyone's breathing and heartbeat, and sense everyone's emotional fluctuations.

However, no one whispered to each other, no one looked around, and no one's breathing or heartbeat fluctuated.

Not bad...

Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised. Because in addition to their own disciples, the thirty-six people below also include the ten city lords they chose to cooperate in building the city. These ten are all outsiders, but their silence can only mean one thing. The ten disciples They did a great job, no matter what tactics they used, but they clearly succeeded in bringing these people back.

Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel relieved that he had lived up to Lishan's teachings.

The scene of a cup of tea passed quickly. Jiang Fan opened his eyes again and chuckled: "Okay, I am very pleased that you are willing to go hand in hand with me. In this case, today I will take a look at your achievements in the past three years. How about a formal canonization."

When everyone heard this, they were all in high spirits. The Lord personally conferred the title on him. It was a rare honor.

At this time, Ding Shaoan waved his hand and ordered someone to present the twelve great seals to Jiang Fan's case.

Then, he looked around at the crowd and said loudly: "I would like to ask the first of the twelve cities in Yuzhou, Canglong City, to report."

That's right, Jiang Fan once ordered his top ten disciples to build ten cities in Yuzhou that could accommodate more than 100,000 people. At that time, he gave each of them 10,000 taels of gold and asked them to find a way. Now, it's time to accept the results.

In fact, he had already read the reports from the top ten disciples and already knew it in his mind. However, this formal procedure was to build confidence among everyone and ultimately form a cohesive force for the twelve cities of Yuzhou.

The Twelve Cities of Yuzhou are collectively named by Jiang Fan himself for the sake of simple memory, and are named after the twelve zodiac animals. They are Canglong City, Rat King City, Taurus City, Tiger City, Jade Rabbit City, Silver Snake City, Horse City, Aries City, Monkey City, Rooster City, Tangang City, and Hanlu City.

Among them, Tang An means pig, and Han Lu means dog. They are called so just to make it sound better. Among them, Junma City was actually Hecangjun City of the Shentu family, which was renamed for the sake of unification.

Ding Shaoan announced that the first city was naturally the capital of the twelve cities, Canglong City. The person who reported the report on behalf of Canglong City was naturally Pei Yunjin.

As she led the two people out, many people who didn't know had strange expressions on their faces.

The owner of the first city is actually a beautiful young woman, and some people can't help but have some gossip in their minds.

Today, everyone was honest with each other. Pei Yunjin naturally did not hide her appearance, but she also did not hide her aura.

The aura of the peak holy realm set off her beautiful face, making her look even more graceful and luxurious, overwhelming the crowd.

Although Pei Yunjin rarely comes out to run Linjiang Pavilion, she is not known to everyone. Therefore, many people were secretly surprised even before she announced her name.

"Pei's Yunjin, who was born in Linjiang Pavilion, is favored by the Lord, holds the position of Lord of Canglong City, and now I present to the Lord..."

When she officially announced her name, it caused even more shock. It turned out that he was actually the second-ranked proprietor of Linjiang Pavilion among the eight great families, and a descendant of Pei Shiju, the old man of Lanyi Pavilion.

Pei Yunjin's name is not obvious, but Pei Shiju is different. He has been called the number one pavilion elder in the past three hundred years. He is good at both civil and military affairs. His reputation is spread far and wide. Even if his reputation is higher than that of Zhang Zhiling, the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms, he will not be much worse.

Unexpectedly, his descendants actually became subordinate to the Lord, which means that all the power of Linjiang Pavilion, one of the eight great families in a century, has been transferred to Jiang Fan.

Although the relationship between Jiang Xiaoyao and Linjiangge was no longer a secret to many big bosses due to the brewing and roasting of knives, the confirmation that Linjiangge was included in his subordinates still caused quite a shock.

Pei Yunjin looked like a lazy lady at this moment. Instead, she was calm and generous. She briefly described the construction progress and defense situation of Canglong City. Of course, she did not reveal Jiang Fan's secret arrangements.

Even so, everyone was shocked and had more respect for Canglong City.

Canglong City, divided into two cities, the main city and the secondary city, spans Canglan. There are no civilians in this city, only soldiers. In other words, this is a real military city fortress. The main city can station 100,000 troops, and currently 30,000 troops are stationed. The secondary city can station 30,000 troops, and currently 5,000 troops are stationed.

And what everyone does not know is that the secondary city is now temporarily handed over to Gu Qingshan as his base.

Finally, Pei Yunjin focused on introducing his two deputies, namely Liu Laokou, the city lieutenant who is in charge of the political affairs and financial power of Canglong City, and Chai Lao, the garrison general in charge of the city defense.

Yes, Liu Laokou and Chai Lao both followed Pei Yunjin out of the mountain, and the Linjiang Pavilion, which was full of money, would certainly not be abandoned, and was handed over to Uncle Ma and Xiaoqing and Xiaohong to manage.

Others did not know about these two adjutants, but Jiang Fan was very familiar with them. In fact, Jiang Fan originally wanted to send officials himself, but Chai Lao found him and said that he had waited too long and needed this opportunity, otherwise he would regret it when he died of old age. Jiang Fan finally failed to persuade this taciturn but stubborn old man and agreed.

But he was surprised that Chai Lao was actually from the military formation. His father was a military general beside Pei Ge Lao, a master of strange arts known as the fog-locked Jiangtian, Chai Mingyuan.
