Gemu and others have been to the Castle of the Dead before and are somewhat familiar with the place.
They followed the crowd into the castle gate. The original Death Street was being renovated, and many shops were built on both sides of the street.
The people who used to stop people on the street to collect insurance premiums have long since disappeared.
Gemu and others followed the crowd into the castle and arrived at the market.
The market was buzzing with people at this moment. There were many more people than before.
Gemu and others found a shop that bought monster prey.
"Boss, I have the fur of a black bear monster here, do you want to take it?"
"Take it, of course, take it out and take a look. It's in good condition. I'll give you a high price."
Gemu took out a twenty-meter-long black bear skin from the space ring and unfolded it at the entrance of the boss's shop.
The boss looked at it, touched it a few times with his hand, and gave a thumbs up.
"Well, this black bear fur is good, top quality. I'll give you 10 wafers."
"Only 10 wafers? Can't you give me a few more?"
"Brother, this price is already higher than before. In the past, there were only 8 wafers. You must know this going price."
The boss did not lie. The reason why he raised the purchase price now is because the boss saw business opportunities.
According to the latest policy issued by the City of Hope, the number of people relocating will definitely increase significantly in the future. As the population increases, the number of people who need furs for quilts and coats will definitely increase, and prices will naturally rise.
The boss is buying more in advance and hoarding them. Winter is coming soon and he will definitely make a lot of money.
In this hunting trip, Gemu killed a total of eighteen black bear monsters and skinned them all.
The tribesmen around Gemu were very happy. This price was 2-3 wafers higher than the purchase price of Titan City.
Fortunately, I made this trip and earned dozens more wafers.
"Okay, I'll sell them all to you. I have eighteen skins here."
Gemu took out all eighteen pieces of leather and handed them to the boss.
The boss briefly checked the quality and felt that there was no problem, so he paid Gemu and asked the waiter in the shop to collect the leather and process it in the backyard.
"Boss, I have a question. I heard about your castle of the dead,"
"Brother, we have now changed our name to City of Hope. City of Hope, remember!"
The boss interrupted Gemu rudely.
"Ah, City of Hope, I heard that your City of Hope has a new policy. New residents will be exempted from the protection fee for one year. If they do business, they will be exempted from the protection fee permanently. Is this true?"
The boss glanced at Gemu and said with a smile,
"Are some of the guest officials coming from out of town? Yes, our city lord has indeed issued such new regulations. Look, there are many merchants from out of town in the market now."
Gemu coughed lightly and asked,
"Boss, your city lord's rule won't change, right?"
The boss seems to be very unwilling to hear such comments. Nima, I am just about to enjoy such benefits. What are you talking about?
"What are you talking about? Our city lord is very trustworthy and loves the people. We absolutely believe what he says."
Gemu nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face,
"I'm just asking, just asking, thank you boss."
When the boss saw Gemu about to leave, he called to him and said,
"Next time you hunt a monster, you can sell the monster's meat for money. You can also sell it for 2 or 3 wafers. Now that the urban population has increased, the demand for food has also increased.
Many people who used to hunt have formed groups to sell goods outside, and the supply has actually decreased. "
In the Central Continent, monster beasts can be seen everywhere, many of which are large monster beasts. The weight of any large monster beast is thousands of kilograms, and some weigh dozens of tons. Killing one monster beast can feed dozens of people for several consecutive meals. sky,
Therefore, in Zhongzhou, the meat of monster beasts is not valuable, and many people just throw it away when hunting monster beasts.
After hearing this, Gemu felt a sense of surprise in his heart. If the meat of the eighteen monster beasts hunted today were sold, he could sell it for forty or fifty more wafers. What a deal.
"Thanks for the reminder, boss."
"Also, there is a medicine shop, a blacksmith shop, and a gene potion shop in front. You can directly exchange your monster crystal cores and some other monster pendants. One-stop service, which is very convenient."
"Okay, thank you boss for reminding me."
Gemu took his tribe around on the street, and by the way, he sold the monster crystal cores and some special monster drop pendants obtained from hunting. The price was not bad, and it was a few more crystals than in Titan City.
Gemu and others left the City of Hope and were excited along the way.
"We will move here tomorrow. It's great here. The city protection fee is exempted for one year. After one year, we will only charge 50 wafers. This can save a lot of expenses."
...
Recently, people have moved to the City of Hope one after another.
There was originally a large vacancy in the City of Hope, which could accommodate about 100,000 people.
Yang Xiao called everyone together and held a city planning meeting.
"The city's planning needs to be revised. I believe that the future population will definitely exceed one million or even two million."
"one million?"
Le Ding's eyes widened and he looked at Yang Xiao in disbelief.
Yang Xiao smiled and said,
"What's one million? Two million or even five million are possible. We must have advanced urban planning awareness now. Otherwise, too many people will come and the city will be in chaos, which will greatly reduce everyone's The happiness of living and working in peace and contentment.”
Yang Xiao said, spreading a three-dimensional city map in front of everyone.
"Everyone, take a look. This is the current map of our City of Hope. From the map, the entire city looks very messy and without planning. Now that there are not many new arrivals, we need to plan the city in advance.
First of all, there is still a large area of vacant land in the old city, which can be planned to become a new residential area. We can build houses here and then rent them to new residents."
"Why not just sell to them?"
Chen Peng asked.
Yang Xiao smiled,
"These new residents have just arrived and don't have much money. Let them rent a house first, which can reduce their relocation costs. When they decide to settle here later, they will naturally think of buying a house.
After arriving, the population will increase and more and more people will buy houses. The prices and rents of houses will naturally increase. If we sell them to them, we will make more money than we do now. "
Chen Peng and others listened and nodded in admiration.
To be honest, no one in Central Continent has the concept of real estate development.
Yang Xiaozhi wants to invite everyone to settle here for free. In addition to prospering the city and increasing his strength, he will be able to earn a huge amount of income from selling and renting out houses in the future, far exceeding the small amount of free money today.
Yang Xiao pointed at the map,
"In addition to developing this open space in the city, this large area in the west of the city, all the way to the foot of the mountain, is the space for the expansion of our city of hope in the future. I need to plan it carefully and develop it according to a city with a population of five million.
There is an order to be promulgated that no private houses are allowed to be built inside or outside the city, and all land belongs to the city lord. "
Qi Lao and others laughed and said,
"City Lord, if it can really grow to a population of five million in the future, it will be comparable to the largest city in Central Continent."
Although everyone didn't believe it in their hearts, they were unwilling to refute Yang Xiao's reputation. After all, he was the city lord.
Everyone also followed up with a few compliments.
Yang Xiao understood everyone's inner thoughts, but he didn't care at all and continued.
"The current City of Hope is too backward and too closed. As a city, we must first solve several infrastructures, including running water, electricity, and road transportation. These three tasks must be put on the agenda immediately."
Other cities outside of Central Continent are highly developed and have very complete infrastructure such as electricity, running water, and road transportation.
But Zhongzhou is an abandoned continent, a sinful continent. Compared with other places in the dwarf star, it is still at a very advanced stage, just like the gap between cities on earth and mountainous villages.
Le Ding shouted excitedly,
"City Lord, if we can build electricity and running water, it will be a great feeling. Our city will be immediately upgraded to a higher level. It will no longer be a primitive copycat castle, but a modern city.
But, how to build a power station? And running water? "
Yang Xiao smiled and said,
"There are power stations in other cities on the dwarf star. Why can't we build a power station here? Go and hire people from outside to build a power station.
Also, there is a river five or six kilometers away from us, which can directly lead the river water into the city.
We can set up water companies and electricity companies to introduce water and electricity to every household, so we can also collect some water and electricity bills every month, right? "
"..."
Everyone looked at Yang Xiao in confusion. Why didn't everyone think of such a simple answer?
In fact, it’s not that they didn’t think of it, but that in the previous environment, no one was willing to invest in these things.
When everyone feels that they have no future today, who else will make these long-term investments and urban infrastructure construction?
"Mr. Qi, how much money did the previous city lord leave?"
When Qi Lao heard this, he laughed.
"Dacrocodile and successive city lords have been running it for decades, hundreds of years, and dug a huge underground vault in the city lord's palace. It is estimated that there are hundreds of millions of wafers stored in it."
"Huh? So many!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes widened.
Yang Xiao slapped the table and shouted,
"Okay, this money is enough for us to do big things."
...
The planning and construction of the new city began in full swing.
Yang Xiao sent people to invite a professional power construction company outside Zhongzhou Continent to build a nuclear power plant in the city.
The dwarf star's nuclear power plant is completely different from the earth's nuclear power plant in Yang Xiao's impression. Not only is it highly safe, non-radiative and pollution-free, but it also occupies a very small area.
The nuclear power plant built according to Yang Xiao's long-term plan to provide power for a population of five million only covers an area of 2,000 square meters and is about 20 meters high.
After three months of construction, the nuclear power plant was successfully connected to the grid to generate electricity.
When every household has access to electricity, the whole city is boiling.
The construction of tap water was even simpler. It only took a month to introduce the clear river water in the distance to every household in the form of tap water.
The residents of the City of Hope now worship Yang Xiao beyond measure. In everyone's mind, Yang Xiao is completely different from other city lords. The young, handsome and sunny City Lord Yang is simply the savior in everyone's mind.
Yang Xiao has even become the dream lover of many girls in the city. Some even asked Qi Lao and others to propose marriage to their daughters, but Yang Xiao declined them one by one.
In three months, electricity and water were connected, new residential areas were expanded, and commercial avenues were rebuilt.
Dozens of business teams in the city began to specialize in trafficking goods from outside the Central Continent, making the City of Hope more and more abundant in goods. Many goods were simply unavailable in other cities in the Central Continent.
The establishment of power stations has increased the number of daily electrical appliances that everyone needs.
The reputation of the City of Hope has also begun to spread in surrounding cities. In the past three months, about 50,000 people have moved from nearby cities.
Now, the City of Hope has electricity, running water, and cheaper and more abundant daily necessities.
The living environment is good, prices are low, and safety and dignity have skyrocketed. More and more people want to move here, and it has begun to grow explosively.
Titan City is relatively close to the City of Hope and has been affected the most.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, the city lord Kuroki slammed the table.
"Wow, 30,000 people have moved to the Castle of the Dead in this month?
They actually dare to poach people from me. Are you tired of living? See if I can't destroy them! "
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju mobile version reading website:
