Royal City Government Affairs Office.
This is the highest administrative center of Trorian, where the large and small consuls are responsible for all matters other than combat.
They may not seem that important, but they are actually the cornerstone of Trorian's existence.
Only a complete and powerful human society can afford so many strong human beings and super war weapons.
Center hall.
The two chief consuls and thirty-two senior consuls gathered together.
Everyone was in high spirits except one who was slightly gloomy.
"It's so powerful! Fanxing Town is simply a classic in operation and construction!"
"Sir Rhodes, as a defender and leader, should be remembered for his first contribution!"
"Fanxing Town has accommodated 900,000 people for us! The entire outer city has become better!"
"Not enough, not enough, Fanxing Town can accommodate another million people!"
"Your news is behind! They conquered Blackwater Swamp and Yin Soen Ruins. Look at their size! They can accommodate another three million!"
With a bang, the whole hall seemed to be on fire, and everyone's eyes were red.
Especially the governors of the royal city.
Because Fanxing Town has always accepted the residents of the Royal City.
A senior consul shouted: "No! I protest! You are unfair. You can't just give it to the royal city. Other towns should also share the quota!"
"Yes, we are too crowded! Public security has deteriorated, and doomsday cultists are popping up like cockroaches! Thousands of people have died in Stone City because of the lack of housing!"
"So are we!"
Chief Consul Mandalay raised his hands and said loudly: "Don't make any noise, we will allocate the quotas reasonably! Everyone has a share!"
Chief Executive Talinas said slightly gloomily: "In this case, each town will not be able to get many places."
A senior consul shouted: "Can there be more in Fanxing Town? We heard that they have opened up farmland, plantations, breeding lakes, and countless mines. Many poor people cannot find jobs in our place. And Fanxing Town is full of jobs.”
"Yes, isn't this the most reasonable distribution? An unstable factor that only consumes food becomes a worker with valuable output!"
"This will skyrocket our performance this year! The overall order and stability factors will also be greatly improved! Trorian's total output value will reach a new level."
Chief Executive Mandalay said with some embarrassment: "But Lord Rhodes said that three million people is the limit."
"How could it be the limit? Go talk to Lord Rhodes again!"
Chief Consul Manderly lamented: "He refused!"
"How can this be done? Why would he refuse? Did you offend him?"
"Hurry, let's repair the relationship quickly, this is related to our performance this year!"
"What do Lord Rhodes like?"
"It is said that he likes beautiful women."
"It's just...that simple? I'll give you a hundred first! No need for more, just give me a hundred thousand places."
"Bah, look at how poor you are, who is Mr. Rhodes? If I were not a man, I would give him away for free. I will give you a thousand, and give me a quota of 100,000."
"I'll give you ten thousand!"
"I send……"
"Shut up!"
Chief Consul Mandalay shouted, suppressing the surging sound.
"Do you think Lord Rhodes is a breeding pig? Even if he gives it away, he talks about it as if it is your property. If you go back to the city and shout, others will still give you money, and you will eat both inside and outside. You have a good idea!"
All the consuls' faces turned red when their little thoughts were revealed.
Judging from Rhode's current achievements and status, becoming his partner is simply a dream. If you have this channel, you can sell a spot for 10,000 silver cords.
If ten thousand can be given away, then one hundred million silver cords will be obtained.
Of course, this business was over before it even started.
"Now what?"
one of the senior consuls asked cautiously.
"The problem of living space has become our number one problem. We don't have enough phlogiston, not enough houses, not enough spiritual lamps, not enough jobs, not enough anything. Fanxing Town has the obligation to accommodate more."
Another high-ranking consul suddenly asked: "What is going on in the City of Stars? Hasn't the Conquest Legion captured it yet?"
Chief Consul Manderly replied: "No, they are still fighting the darkness underground."
"What on earth is Lord Lockhart, the legion commander doing?" A high-ranking consul couldn't help complaining: "Star City has been under attack for almost half a year, and it's still uninhabitable? What did you say at the beginning?"
"Why is Lord Lockhart so rubbish? This man is really incomparable. It's better to let Lord Rhodes take care of it."
"Yes! I agree!"
"We will propose to the Supreme Council now!"
"Shut up!"
Chief Consul Mandalay shouted: "Are you able to interfere with the appointment of the legion commander? Stop talking to me. Now there are three million quotas. You can divide it among yourself!"
"I don't want to be old anyway. I will go to Fanxing Town to find Lord Rhodes in person. I will kneel down and beg for one million more! No matter how much Fanxing Town is bombed, no one can finish it!"
He threw down his sleeves and walked out.
Everyone was left looking at each other.
After a moment of silence, they suddenly realized that the three million red spots were right in front of them.
For a moment, everyone was breathing heavily.
After a while, there was a fight in the hall.
The consuls were in perfect harmony and had never been so close.
——
Fanxing Town.
The upper lobby of the Administration Hall.
This is an office space that belongs exclusively to Rhodes. The spacious room is filled with classical decorations from the Starry Kingdom of 1,500 years ago. The strong historical atmosphere makes everyone who enters here breathless.
In the center of the room was a heavy mahogany sunken table. Rhodes sat in the big chair, feeling very embarrassed.
Chief Consul Mandalay was sitting in front of him, the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, and his eyes were full of pleading.
"Well, Lord Mandalay, it's not that I won't help..."
Mandalay jumped up: "I have six granddaughters, and they all admire me very much..."
"OK OK!"
Rhodes stopped him immediately.
"Listen to me, there are currently 900,000 people in Fanxing Town. If we add another 4 million people, this town will have close to 5 million people."
"Five million people are not that many... I have calculated that the area of Fanxing Town plus the surrounding area has exceeded 5,000 square meters. On average, a thousand people can live in one square thousand yards, which is not a problem at all. .”
Rhodes sighed: "Mr. Mandalay, you have to know that part of the land is mines, farmland, botanical gardens and aquaculture areas, and part of it is used to build defenses."
But Mandalay was obviously prepared.
"Lord, don't forget that the underground city to the east can accommodate half a million people after installing the automatic psychic elevator you invented."
Rhodes frowned and said, "Such a depressing and cramped environment is not suitable for long-term living."
Mandalay smiled and said, "Sir Rhodes, this is where your experience is lacking. The underground city environment will give people an unprecedented sense of security. Believe me, many residents like this environment very much."
Rhodes is very upset. It's not that he doesn't want to accept it, but now he has a lot of troubles, and his younger brother can't stand it.
"Mr. Mandalay, civilians cannot rely on me alone for relief. They must have jobs."
"Currently, there are only two mines in my hands. The super-large true silver vein under Fanxing Town, and the star ruby vein under Blackwater Swamp. The 600,000 miners are already at full capacity."
"Ghost Lake and Blackwater Swamp can only accommodate 300,000 farmers and breeding workers. Add in hundreds of thousands of construction workers and related spin-off industries. Feeding three to four million people is already the limit. If there are more people, They can only become beggars and prostitutes."
Mandalay frowned, Rhodes' words came to a crucial point.
But as the chief executive, he still has many methods.
"It doesn't matter. I can arrange for the Mansis Factory and the Byron Alchemy and Pharmacy Factory to open new areas in Fanxing Town."
Rhodes shook his head: "Not enough."
Mandalay added another big trick: "I have six granddaughters..."
Rhodes said calmly: "Miss Qingyu forbids me to find another partner."
Mandalay choked.
In fact, everyone ignored his intended partnership with Qingyu, because it was obviously no longer suitable.
But if Rhodes insists, others have no right to interfere.
Rhodes couldn't refute this reason, so he had no choice but to use a bigger ultimate move, swooping up and kneeling down to hug his thigh.
Rhodes couldn't get rid of him no matter how hard he tried. It was really unbearable to have a man who was old enough to be his grandfather hugging his thighs and kneeling in front of him.
In the end, Rhodes could only sigh.
"Okay, okay, I promised! Get up quickly!"
Mandalay said ecstatically: "I know you are a great human hero. Do you want to consider my six granddaughters..."
"I'll regret it if you don't leave!"
Mandalay is moistened at the speed of light.
Rhodes was left looking at the countless affairs in front of him with a frown.
Things have become like this since taking over the Blackwater Swamp and Yin Soen Ruins in one day.
No longer needed to fight, Rhodes was forced to begin fulfilling his duties as defender and mayor of Startown.
Fanxing Town, which is undergoing rapid expansion, is experiencing countless incidents all the time.
The clearing and construction of four surrounding areas, the construction of fortifications, the expansion of Fanxing Town, the excavation of sewers, the establishment of water supply systems, the mining of new mineral veins, and so on.
Rhodes' head felt huge. He originally wanted to practice the Star Shuttle, sort out his harvest, and clear up his dreams.
As a result, if you do this, you will have no time at all.
Every day he is immersed in work, and these tasks that he regards as nightmares come one after another.
But everyone thinks this is what he is best at.
Please, if it wasn’t because it was too painful to look at Molly that day, I wouldn’t do it!
But Rhodes was already on the shelf.
If he doesn't do a good job, Molly will think that he is slacking off and will come to him more aggressively to "meet her needs."
Speaking of which.
This is what has troubled Rhode the most recently.
Molly didn't know what happened. After her guess that the stickers would be upgraded failed, she seemed to have another guess:
As long as Rod's needs are met and women are not on his mind, he will work hard. If he is not working hard, then he is thinking of women and she will come over to "satisfy his needs."
The reason why Molly made this judgment is also based on the following facts.
After their first night.
Rhodes' strength exploded (this guess has been crossed out), and his temperament suddenly changed the next day. He changed his previous negative image, worked hard, worked hard, and the results of his work were perfect.
After the second night.
Rhodes performed a miracle and bulldozed the Blackwater Swamp and the Yinthorn ruins in one day.
So it is logical that based on the above summary of facts, spending the night with Rhodes will stimulate his potential, work hard, and create miracles.
Throwing away the invalid information, the key points extracted are:
"Squeeze Rod dry and he will treat everything with his utmost effort."
So, in the past few days, they not only stayed in the room overnight, but they came here on almost all occasions.
Rhodes really couldn't bear it.
If he was passive, Molly would work all night, and even if he pretended to be asleep, she would keep moving and he wouldn't be able to rest.
And he will come at every opportunity during the day.
No one could enter his office anyway, and his mahogany desk was large and thick enough to cover her figure.
In order to avoid recurring situations where his body was hollowed out, Rhodes had to rack his brains to deal with these very annoying administrative tasks. He couldn't just do it perfunctorily, he had to do it at the top level.
In order to achieve this point, he has been bored to death with questions about the Book of Knowledge and has eaten a lot of various materials.
This made it very unhappy, thinking that Rhodes was not doing his job properly, dealing with these chores every day, but not thinking of ways to increase his strength.
Rhodes really couldn't explain it clearly to it, so he had to use the excuse that Dreamland was safer now and that Fanxing Town was developed to gain more divinity.
The Book of Knowledge reluctantly accepted his explanation and tried its best to answer his questions. If it could use its own knowledge to give the answer, it would never use its soul characteristics to obtain it.
After all, this is its owner.
Although strange, ignorant and weak, there are some signs of strength now.
However, this also made Molly more determined. If she didn't change into eighteen positions a day, she would feel that her work was not done to her stomach.
In this way, Rhodes was in pain and happiness, and time passed little by little.
