Gu Xuan on the side raised his head with difficulty, saw the imposing young man gently raised his hand, and said: "Soldiers, please stand up."
When Grandpa Jiu saw this scene, he was stunned: "This young man who seems to be in his early 20s is the Lord of Taicang?"
Gu Xuan was also a little stunned. The general Shatu who saved his life mentioned repeatedly that the revered Lord is such an immature boy?
Grandpa Nine was the first to react. With a loud cry, he knelt down and saluted Ji Xia on the high platform.
"See Lord Tai Cang!"
"See Lord Taicang!" Seeing Grandpa Jiu's action, the rest of the people knelt down immediately.
In an instant, tens of thousands of people knelt down, and the scene was extremely magnificent.
Ji Xia looked at the dusty people in Jiangu in front of him, kept silent for a while, did not let them get up, but asked softly: "Are you willing to become the people of Taicang?"
The voice was soft, but it clearly reached the ears of the kneeling crowd.
Grandpa Jiu knocked his head on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "Tai Cang saved our lives and gave us a chance for the Jiangu Human Race. Since we entered Tai Cang, we shall be the people of Tai Cang for generations to come!"
"I will be the people of Taicang for life after life!"
"I will be the people of Taicang for life after life!"
"..."
Countless shouts came from the mouths of the Jiangu people.
They shouted like this, not because of the situation, but from the heart.
There is great terror between life and death!
They faced the cruel fangs from alien races and faced death. If it wasn't for Tai Cang and the young king in front of them, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to leave a complete corpse!
If it wasn't for Tai Cang's willingness to accept them, they would definitely not be able to survive the death of the sun!
With such great kindness, they sincerely shouted out this sentence!
Ji Xia's originally calm face finally revealed a smile when he heard the people from the Jiangu tribe shouting loudly.
He waved his hand and said, "Please get up!"
After the voice fell, the city gate opened, and countless figures emerged from it.
They were dressed in plain clothes, all holding baskets, earthen pots, and pottery urns in their hands, with warm smiles on their faces.
The Cang guards all smiled and moved out of the way, and these Taicang people rushed to the Jiangu people who were still kneeling on the ground, competing to help them up.
There is some food in the container in hand.
Among them, there are even vaguely visible pastries, melons and fruits that the people of Taicang themselves are reluctant to eat!
Only officials and sergeants with high ranks have these rations.
And there are very few of them!
Grandfather Jiu was lifted up by an old man in white, and seeing the enthusiasm of the people in Taicang, he couldn't help tears from his eyes.
All the apprehension and tension in the past disappeared at this moment.
Gu Xuan, who was lying on the stretcher, took a hard bite of the fruit handed over by a Taicang girl. Seeing the girl's reddish cheeks, he felt a little incomprehensible.
"I thought there was no kinder group than the Jiangu people."
Gu Xuan's face couldn't help turning bloody, looking at the kind-hearted Taicang people in front of him, he felt lost: "If I can still move, I can repay these lovely people."
He glanced at the girl who was staring at him curiously, and thought to himself: "Maybe I can walk up to this girl and ask her name frankly."
But he was also very aware of his injury, as the spirit energy flowed through his limbs and bones, he knew how serious his injury was.
"A person who spends his whole life in bed, how can he have the right to ask someone's name?"
He turned his head in despair, forcing himself not to look at the girl squatting next to him, but out of the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of the high platform where General Shatu was kneeling on the ground, saluting the too young lord.
There seemed to be something in his mouth.
And the king was looking at him from afar.
The two looked at each other, and the king nodded with a handsome smile on his lips.
Chapter 141 The House Master's Concerns
In this way, the Jiangu people were welcomed into Taicheng.
Countless people lined the road to welcome them, and the tired Jiangu people were destined to be even more tired, because their hands were stuffed with things by the people of Taicang.
Steamed buns, pastries, and self-brewed rice wine.
Even some old Jiangu people were picked up by Tai Cang Qing Zhuang and walked towards the bank of Haixiu River.
On the banks of the Haixin River, a row of old but extremely clean tents have been set up. Behind each tent, there is a small smoke hole, filled with white smoke.
Next to Grandpa Ninth was surrounded by a group of Jiangu people, who were either middle-aged or old, and they were all the chiefs of the various surnames of the Jiangu people.
At this moment, they quietly listened to the words of an official in his forties, who was in a bun and well dressed.
The official pointed to the tents everywhere and said: "These are military tents that have been replaced in the past. There are not many, only a thousand. You will probably be wronged for dozens of days, and you need more than ten people to squeeze in the tents. It will come soon, and the stove has been prepared in the tent."
"Your house has been built not far away. If the progress is fast, it can be completed in about 20 days."
Grandpa Jiu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Didn't we build our house ourselves?"
The official said: "The lord of the country is afraid that you will not be able to survive the silence of the sun, so he has issued an edict ordering Tai Cang Taicheng Mansion, Craftsman Mansion, Cang Shoujun, Tai Cang Young and Strong People and other institutions to cooperate in the construction of your houses."
"But it doesn't mean that you can wait for it to happen. You just arrived today, so let's take a rest for a day. Tomorrow morning, you will organize all the young and strong to go to the building area to work."
Grandpa Ninth and the patriarchs of each surname looked at each other in dismay. Is there such a benefit?
Before they came to Taicang, their greatest expectation was that Taicang could provide them with some building materials and lights, otherwise they would not be able to start construction at all.
Unexpectedly, now, Tai Cang has already planned the building of the house, and they only need to go to help.
This is simply a great thing!
"Excuse me, my lord, who are you?" Grandpa Jiu asked tentatively when he saw that the official who was talking to them had an extraordinary bearing.
"I am Tai Cang Taicheng Borong Building. Today you are the first to come to Tai Cang, so I came to see it."
Uncle Taicheng?Wouldn't that be the same as the city lord of Taicheng?
