Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 489 The Common People
Meanwhile, Lu Ming, unaware of all this, was already captivated by the street's decorations.

The street outside the Prince's Mansion was just like the one he had been on in Fenglei Town, only bigger and with more people.

There are windmills for sale on the street, but these are not the old-fashioned kind.

It can be considered a kind of mechanism; when it rotates, it can create a huge whirlwind in front of it.

However, it's also something for kids to play with.

After all, the human race today, especially the native human race of Dayu, are born with the cultivation level of a Celestial Immortal, which is the solid foundation of the original race.

Therefore, even things that children play with can be extremely powerful.

Now, all Dayu needs to do is wait for time to settle things, if there is enough time.

The strength of the Great Yu Kingdom has seen significant progress with each breakthrough, mainly due to the sheer number of its members.

For example, among the experts at the Saintly Venerable Realm, some have already begun to break through one after another.

The biggest reason is that there are too many experts in the Holy Emperor's ranks.

Once you've accumulated enough, even a one-tenth breakthrough is possible.

Human Saint Venerable Realm experts can reach an extremely terrifying level.

Besides some fun things to do, there are also many snacks.

However, these things also possess a spiritual quality.

Even ordinary people who consume it will eventually reach the Core Formation Realm.

"What a huge change! When I was here, we couldn't even get enough to eat. Now, supplies are so plentiful."

Li Xirou couldn't help but sigh.

Of all the women, only she accompanied Lu Ming through this most difficult time.

Therefore, she knows best what Fenglei Town was like in the past.

Ordinary people were barely clothed, and the streets were filled with vagrants.

Corpses are frequently found outside the town.

Most of them starved to death.

But now, without realizing it, I've grown to this extent.

If someone were to talk about the past now, I doubt anyone would believe them.

Lu Ming has truly brought about so many changes to the human race.

The biggest change is that humans no longer have to worry about filling their stomachs.

There is no need to worry about safety.

Their army is sufficient to protect the people of Dayu.

As long as Lu Ming gives the order, they can fight their way to any location.

At the very least, in terms of self-preservation, the human race is currently very safe, and no one can provoke them.

Even giants can't break in.

“This is the person I wanted to be in the past,” Lu Ming said with a smile.

My wish has finally come true.

"You've just arrived in Fenglei Town, right? Why not try some of the local specialties?" a street vendor said with a smile.

Wontons are cooking in a pot.

When Lu Ming first arrived in this world, this item was a rare luxury for him.

Anyway, I can't bear to eat it.

I never imagined that after all these years, it would still still exist.

So he sat down.

After Lu Ming sat down, all the women sat down as well.

Zhang Meng stood aside and asked, "Is your wonton business a family heirloom?" His question immediately roused the shop owner. "Of course it's a family heirloom! Let me tell you, my ancestors have been selling wontons here for generations. You know General Zhang Meng of Dayu, right? My ancestors said that he used to come here to buy my wontons on His Majesty's orders."

But he's a bit dishonest; whenever he buys a lot, he always asks for a few extra bowls to be delivered so he can pocket the kickback.

Upon hearing what the other person said, Zhang Meng's face instantly turned red.

He truly never expected that a wonton vendor would expose his past.

The women covered their mouths and chuckled softly.

Lu Ming nodded and said, "That is indeed the case, but he did not embezzle the money he saved; instead, he gave it to His Majesty."

"Wow, how did you know?" the shop owner asked in surprise after placing a bowl of wontons next to Lu Ming.

The other party just smiled and didn't reply.

Then they started eating.

It tastes much better than before, and the ingredients are different too.

This bowl of wontons would have been considered a magic pill in the past.

However, now it's just a snack for leisure.

"Where is your ancestor? Tell him to come out and meet us." Zhang Meng didn't want to argue with a junior, but if the ancestor was there, since they were from the same town, he should ask him properly.

"Ah, he didn't live to see the good times. His Majesty died of old age just a few years after he raised his army. Otherwise, he could have seen this prosperous era today." The shopkeeper's eyes were full of emotion as he said this.

However, their hands didn't stop moving, and in a short while, a bowl of wontons was placed next to each person.

Even Silver Moon curiously ate a bowl.

After all, she had never come into contact with such a thing before.

"Is everything alright in Fenglei Town these days?"

Lu Ming finished his bowl of wontons, then wiped his mouth and said.

His gaze swept around.

The passing crowds made him feel a long-lost sense of closeness.

"Good, how could it not be good? Not to mention how many outstanding people have come from our area, they haven't forgotten us villagers. Every year they send back all kinds of supplies, as if they're afraid we villagers won't have enough to eat."

Moreover, many people come here every day to see the place where His Majesty once lived; my business is booming every single day.

The wonton shop owner said with a smile.

Lu Ming pointed to the rows of houses outside and said, "I heard that many generals have come back to build houses. Haven't they encroached on your land? A house is this big. I don't believe it."

"Hey, who are they? What can they take from us? They all paid for it, ten times the price outside. Who wouldn't want to move? Even if some people didn't want to move, they didn't forcibly take it from us. They just cleared a path for them."

"This shop belongs to Lord Baili. They didn't even charge rent; they just let me watch it for a while. The villagers have benefited so much. Anyone who dares to say anything bad about these lords, I'll be the first to punish them."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming stood up with a smile.

"Okay, if we do it this way, naturally no one will have any complaints."

Then, they walked forward.

Zhang Meng, standing to the side, broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, they had all thought of their fellow villagers and were willing to help as much as they could. When they bought the house, they hadn't cared about the extra money.

If they really try to forcibly seize it, something really serious could happen.

Those who followed Lu Ming knew that he hated those who bullied ordinary people the most.

And at this time.

The news that the Prince of Lingwu had been conferred the title of Prince had spread throughout the land.

The princes' sons were shocked and overjoyed upon receiving the news.

The Prince of Lingwu was granted the title of Prince, does this mean they will also have opportunities?

For a time, everyone was speculating.

However, the dragon clan was nervous at this moment. The promotion of the Prince of Lingwu meant that Lu Ming was not far from the sea, so how could they not be nervous?
