In fact, the people currently working in the Everlasting City of the Tang Dynasty are naturally the people around them. They must all have their own houses. No matter whether the houses are good or bad, there must be some.
Li Ke doesn't know what choices they will make in the future, but he will wait and see.
The houses they build themselves may not be very good, but within the officially planned homesteads, even if they are ordinary adobe houses, they are still people's houses.
Whether their original house is sold or not depends on them.
When the sun set in the west, the space between Chang'an City and the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty was almost full of people. To be honest, at this moment, Li Ke had already reached the east gate of the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty and looked at the densely packed heads below. , he was also a little emotional.
This kind of scene is a grand event that can only be seen in holiday attractions in later generations! Currently, in this world, such a grand event can only be seen near Chang'an.
Not anywhere else.
Fortunately, today was a special situation, and the Sixteenth Guards of Chang'an were dispatched collectively. On the road, these guards were arranged in neat queues to stand guard at different traffic arteries, which could be regarded as controlling the flow of people and dividing them perfectly.
This is what Li Ke learned from some experiences of later generations.
To be honest, maintaining order was better in ancient times. At least in this era, there were no bad girls who enjoyed the protection of others and openly pointed their fingers at each other and cursed.
In this era, people who dare to challenge the army have not yet appeared. Even the Sixteenth Guards of Chang'an have been conducting various trainings all day long due to continuous reforms. Especially after joining the political commissar, they are more familiar to the people around them than before. Quite a few.
But the people were still very obedient.
After all, in ancient times and more than a thousand years ago, the consequences of irrational behavior were different.
But even so, Li Shimin and others were surprised by Li Ke's use of these soldiers.
For similar things, the Tang Dynasty would send soldiers to maintain order in the past, but this kind of maintenance of order was nothing more than stationing nearby to scare people not to cause trouble, and other things were basically ignored.
And Li Ke took the initiative to maintain it, and also diverted the crowd and so on.
Li Ke has already come down from the tower.
"Third brother, third brother, when will it start?" Jinyang couldn't wait.
Mainly because the third brother said he had to wait until dusk, but Jinyang wanted to jump up and push the sun directly behind the horizon.
"You have to wait a little longer. According to the time calculated by Taoist Master Li Chunfeng, about twenty minutes will be enough." Li Ke said with a smile.
"Twenty minutes is a long time." Jin Yang pouted a little, "Third brother, you told me there are a lot of delicious food here, but I didn't eat at noon. I'm starving now."
"Don't worry, there must be something delicious." Li Ke couldn't laugh or cry, so he could only comfort her.
Li Ke's words are correct. There are countless kinds of snacks in the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty. Li Ke has been searching for all the snacks that he has eaten in his previous life and are relatively easy to make. For this reason, he has also specially cultivated a lot of snacks. of small vendors.
I didn't ask for any money from them, it was mainly to train them, and to make some special vendor trucks, which was also lent to them.
After all, Li Ke didn't want his Evernight City to become imperfect. He had to have many things, and there was nothing he could do about those with higher requirements.
However, the Chinese are really talented in eating. They can make flowers out of just a skewer. Thanks to the cultivation and popularization of spices, there is no shortage of spices in the Tang Dynasty, at least not here in Li Ke. lack.
"Well, I want to eat all of them." Jin Yang said excitedly. At this moment, the personal maid behind her was carrying a cross-body bag that was probably as big as a primary school student's schoolbag in later generations, and it was filled with coins.
After all, for some vendors, you can't expect them to change money, and it's not appropriate to give them banknotes directly.
It's not that he can't afford it, but it's not necessary at this time. If Li Shimin goes in and is willing to buy something to eat from these vendors, Li Ke believes that these vendors are more willing for Li Shimin to buy some food from him at a fair price without rewarding him more. Always money.
Wei Zheng raised his head and looked at the tall tower in front of him with emotion. He remembered the conversation he had with His Highness when he was planning to build this.
In just two years, a brand new city stood before our eyes.
And everything His Highness said has come true. Wei Zheng saw how many people are working for it in the Tang Dynasty's Sleepless City today. Many people only see the prosperity on the surface, but do they know how many people work silently and make selfless contributions in different positions in order to maintain this prosperity?
Oh, it may not be said to be selfless, after all, they have monthly money, but at the very least, they ensure the prosperity of this business.
What His Highness said, a city affecting the lives of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people, has been achieved.
Judging from the current level, it has definitely been achieved. According to the statistics of the county magistrates of Wannian and Chang'an counties, the population of Chang'an City is growing rapidly. If all the people in the entire Chang'an jurisdiction are included, the population is close to one One million and one million people.
Above the doorway is a carved name directly inlaid: The Everlasting City of the Tang Dynasty. This word was naturally inscribed by Li Shimin.
To be honest, Wei Zheng is also looking forward to what kind of new experience His Highness can bring to Datang?
When the time finally reached the auspicious hour, with the sound of gongs, a powerful voice also rang loudly: "Turn on the lights!"
"Turn on the lights!" Following this roar, the surrounding soldiers continued to pass the same words into the distance.
There was no special ceremony prepared for entering the city, just a symbolic opening of the door.
But with the roars of the surrounding soldiers, there was a "buzz" and the switches were closed one by one. In the sight of everyone, the lights next to the parapet hanging on the city wall were instantly turned on.
Dim yellow lights illuminated the entire city wall of the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty in a complete circle! At the same time, the towers on the east gate of the Tang Dynasty's Evernight City also became brighter under the illumination of lights similar to spotlights from all angles.
Under the city wall, there are also several lighting fixtures hidden under the words "Datang Never Sleeps", so that even at night, those five words can be clearly seen.
Although the sun has already set halfway, these lights still show an unprecedented shock, especially when the whole city is lit up, and it is all lit up at the same time!
This is not something candles or oil lamps can do.
