Chapter 406: Western Development (9)

Chapter 406: The Great Western Development (Nine)

The idea of ​​robbing the orc tribe is only to think about it now. He doesn’t have the time to do this. Now he is in trouble and has trouble. How can he have time to go to the orc empire again?

But it seems that robbers are also a good profession!

"Master, according to your instructions, we have built a water tap company and have begun to supply water to the people in the city!" Sankun, who is responsible for urban infrastructure, reported out of the list.

"Oh, this is a good thing. Is my city lord's mansion also safe?" Xiao Han said happily. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are the most basic needs of human beings. As long as these four things are solved, the Fengcheng will basically be stable.

In such a big city, there are more than one million people. Although the canal of Fengmahu Road Fengcheng has been dug, not all residents live by the canal. Most people must have far away from the water and take in water. Xiao Han did not intend to turn Fengcheng into a Jiangnan water town with rivers across the river, so he is very concerned about the water supply issue of the city.

"Master, you just came back, and you haven't noticed some changes in the mansion. Once this tap water is created, our mansion is the first to install it." Bi Luo said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, with this tap water, the lives of the people will be even more convenient." Xiao Han said happily. He was a commoner on earth for the last life, and naturally he was very familiar with the hardships of people. Although he is now high, if he forgets the sufferings of the people, it would be like the pyramid that makes people draw the foundation below, and it would be strange if he doesn't collapse.

"Brother Xiao's wonderful ideas always bring us countless conveniences, which is no longer surprising, haha!" said the old fox Guan Pingchao.

"What Mr. Guan said is that being able to live in the city under the rule of the Lord is our supreme blessing!" Those thieves and horse bandit generals who were incorporated by Xiao Han are now unsatisfied with their current life. Their loyalty to Xiao Han is getting higher and higher, and they are almost worshipping each other.

A small tap water company has a small investment of only about 500,000 gold coins, mainly used for pipeline laying. There are no plastic pipes in this world, so all of them are cast iron pipes. Fortunately, Fengcheng has built a large steel plant. The biggest problem with tap water conveying pipelines is sealing. There are no other major technical problems, so it is easy to solve.

Next, Carlos, who was in charge of Fengcheng's security, made a report. In general, Fengcheng's security was still very calm. Xiao Han blackmailed the three major guilds. As a result, nothing happened. This incident touched many people. Although the cultivation of the Fengcheng Security Patrol team was not very high, some large mercenary groups were honest after entering Fengcheng, especially the security patrol team was extremely polite. Not to mention causing trouble in Fengcheng, it was definitely not up to me.

Next is fiscal taxation, which is coordinated by Biluo, so she naturally knows the most, because the city entry tax was abolished, which is a very important tax source for other cities. The proportion of city entry tax in some cities is quite large. Wind City abolishing city entry tax is a great attraction for mercenaries and bounty hunters who are mixed in the Western Regions. Moreover, Fengcheng can be said to be the best public security among all cities in the Western Regions, especially on the edge of the windy prairie, so the permanent population of Fengcheng, plus the mercenaries and bounty hunters coming and going, etc., at the peak, Fengcheng has a population of two million.

When the mercenaries entered the Fengcheng, they were for rest, the second was for exchange for money from the hunt, and the third was for entertainment.

Fengcheng's entertainment facilities are still very sound, but there is one thing, that is, if you have to abide by the rules and do not follow the rules, you will naturally not have a good ending!

Fengcheng's casinos and jiyuan are both legal. Although there are many secret prostitutes and underground casinos, once discovered, they will be severely cracked down and banned. Another new project is the gambling industry, which is operated by Fengcheng Hall Holdings. It has now begun to take shape and brings a considerable income to Fengcheng Finance every month. Although the fame has expanded, more and more people will like this new gambling method. In the future, Fengcheng Gambling Industry will become a great source of wealth in the city hall.

A large number of mercenaries, bounty hunters and merchants flocked to drive the market prosperity of Fengcheng, especially in summer and autumn. This time is the most dense time for bounty hunters and mercenaries. One-tenth of their consumption in Fengcheng every day is earned by Fengcheng Hall. Based on the average, no one consumes one gold coin every day, except for the local population of Fengcheng, an average of 400,000 to 500,000 outsiders spend in Fengcheng every day, and they earn 400,000 to 50,000 gold coins in one day, for two seasons and six months, almost two hundred days, which is tens of millions of gold coins.

According to this calculation, within a year, the mercenaries and bounty hunters alone have already brought more than 15 million gold coins to Fengcheng by foreign merchants, and this is just a basic consumption of food, clothing, housing and transportation. If other consumptions are included, such as gambling, **, etc., the income may have to double!

According to statistics from the Municipal Department of Finance, Fengcheng's fiscal tax revenue in one year exceeds 50 million gold coins, which is an amazing number, especially a brand new city that has just been established.

Of course, at this stage, this tax revenue is for the money that Fengcheng is constantly spending like flowing water. It is just a Fengcheng Legion, and Xiao Han spends more than this amount of money on it.

However, Fengcheng also has profitable projects, and it is the kind of profitable one. After the production base of Crescent Paper was moved to Fengcheng, the output naturally increased by hundreds of times. However, the paper industry is very timber-intensive, and it is impossible to use raw materials locally. The Warcraft Forest is too far away and transportation is also troublesome. Xiao Han has moved south to the paper industry. After fully controlling the Natural God Cult, the paper industry will be completely stripped from Fengcheng. The west originally needed to plant trees and afforestation. The wood consumed by papermaking is too large and it is not suitable to stay in Fengcheng. He does not want to leave a bare Fengcheng for his descendants!

Of course, the production of crescent paper has begun in the Warcraft Forest, mainly supplying several areas in the southern and eastern part of the continent. The production of magic paper is also in the Warcraft Forest, and is basically in a situation of shortage of supply.

The emergence of magic paper has greatly increased the strength of human beings. If ordinary practitioners are equipped with high-level magic paper, they can also kill high-level monsters. Of course, the chance of this is very small. Therefore, several places where monsters are concentrated have been concentrated, such as the Warcraft Forest, the Wind Prairie, and the Yunmeng Swamp, have suffered the greatest damage in history. The number of deaths of monsters has doubled compared with previous years.

This is the result of Xiao Han's order to strictly control the production and supply of magic paper!

Although monsters have their own systems, they all have their own ethnic groups, and some are still hostile. After all, they are also smart creatures on the mainland, especially divine beasts with terrifying cultivation. If the monsters are weakened too much, they will inevitably cause the rebound of these "people" and indirectly offend these "people", and life will be difficult in the future.

This is also because Xiao Han stands tall and looks far. Any new thing will inevitably cause huge social turmoil, especially the magic paper, which is a cheerful thing for humans to come. As long as you have money, you can become more powerful. This is a huge blessing for the rich nobles. At least after going out in the future, you don’t have to be trembling and you will be helpless when you meet any master. However, the strength of hostility towards humans is a disaster. As one goes up and down, it is difficult to guarantee that those old guys will not expose their anger on their heads.

In order to ensure the survival benefits of the monsters, these divine beasts are very intelligent and can do everything.

Of course, if they don’t do too much, they will turn a blind eye. Maybe they can help the war beasts survive the fittest and create a few more holy beasts and divine beasts?

If you make too much money at once, God will be jealous.

Magic Light and Shadow is also a considerable income. Now, in Dayue, large cities with more than 500,000 people have basically built a light and cinema that can display magic light and shadow. The largest one can accommodate four or five thousand people, and the smallest one can accommodate four or five hundred people. The light and cinema is different from the competitive plaza. This is a closed place. With the highest building level on the vast continent, the closed place that can accommodate five thousand people is already very high. No matter how big it is, there will be no such movie viewing effect, which is also a great challenge to projection technology and equipment.

Because Ning Xin'er was not there, the expansion strategy of Magic Light and Shadow was led by Chen Yu, but the actual work was done by Han Xiyue. Han Ying had already died. After experiencing the pain of losing her father, the girl became strong. Because there was no place to go, she stayed to help Chen Yu. Chen Yu took too many things into consideration, so she threw the Magic Light and Shadow matter to her for operation. Unexpectedly, Han Xiyue actually had a very clever business talent. According to the method of joining the chain, using technology and equipment to invest in shares, more than 300 light and cinemas were quickly built in the Dayue Kingdom and surrounding countries. The size and speed were different, which made Bi Luo amazed, saying that she wanted to dig Han Xiyue under her. If Han Xiyue hadn't left himself, Fengying Entertainment might not have been able to keep her.

Although there is only one movie, there are too many people who love it. Some people even come to the Light Cinema every once in a while. The Light Cinema is also the best place for foreign mercenaries and bounty hunters to pick up girls. They can get two couple tickets and accompany their beloved women to watch the touching "A Chinese Ghost Story". This is one of the purposes of countless young mercenaries coming to Fengcheng one after another.

"A Chinese Ghost Story" has been screened in Fengcheng for nearly a thousand shows, with an average of three thousand gold coins in one game. All the investment in this movie, and the rest has been earned back. It is conceivable that if this movie "Shin" was screened in all major cities in the vast continent, how much income would be? It is incalculable!

Moreover, "A Chinese Ghost Story" is only the first part, and there will be a second and third part. The continuous stream of magic light and shadow are created. This is another new wealth myth!

The most magical thing is the printing of magic movable type. Because the early exposure of magic paper has caused so many negative effects, it almost pushed him and the entire Fengcheng to the forefront. Xiao Han was cautious about the printing of magic power movable type, and did not promote it externally, but only used it internally, printing the propaganda of "A Chinese Ghost Story", printing various rules and regulations of the city hall, as well as documents issued, as well as printing lottery tickets and magic light and shadow tickets, etc.

There have been speculations from the outside world, but because of strict confidentiality, there is no idea that there is such a magical mechanical existence that can continuously print any repetitive thing you want, of course it must be on paper!

The biggest feature of the education system on the vast continent is paperlessness. It was not until Xiao Han invented the Crescent Paper, but the change was not big. Although the education in the college is also very systematic, the degree and intensity of education for everyone is different. Because it is paperless, only students with better memory can learn more about what the teacher says in class. Although he is very diligent, he cannot learn something, and diligence is useless. Therefore, it is difficult for children with relatively ordinary qualifications to achieve success, while students with good qualifications get better and better, and after receiving the attention of the teacher, their progress will be greater. This is like the gap between the rich and the poor, polarized!

Xiao Han once discussed such a problem with Guan Pingchao because he knew better than anyone else what education actually represents!

There is no way to change the difference in people's qualifications, and teachers also need to practice, and their time and energy are limited. But how can we give students with mediocre qualifications an opportunity to make up for their shortcomings?

This is the textbook. If every student can have a textbook, then he can understand and learn from the textbook. If he doesn’t understand, he can listen to the teacher’s explanation in class, and discuss with his classmates after class. If he doesn’t understand, he can ask the teacher. Don’t ignore the role of a textbook. Some students have no bad qualifications, but they just react slowly. The future achievements of these people may not be much worse than those who are so-called genius level.

At present, under the personal leadership of Guan Lao Fox, Crescent College has gathered the best teachers from various departments and started to write magic and martial arts textbooks, and used these textbooks to be based on four levels: basic, junior, middle and senior level. Among them, basic and junior level are suitable for children under the age of fifteen, intermediate level is suitable for teenagers over the age of fifteen, and senior level is above twenty. This is just a rough division. Some geniuses are not within this limit. Moreover, those under intermediate level are studying in schools in various districts. Advanced parts need to be admitted to Crescent College to be qualified to study.

This can be said to be an educational reform, and its impact will not be seen for a while, but in the future, it will be reflected.

This time, Guan Lao Fox's textbooks have been almost finished. Xiao Han plans to print out a batch first. Now the three cities of Fengcheng, Crescent City and Wuyue City are piloting, and then gradually promote them to the entire Dayue Kingdom.

The Crescent Academy has been relocated to Fengcheng as a whole, and the Crescent Academy, which remains in the Crescent City, has become the Crescent Magic and Martial Arts Intermediate School, which has fully recruited students over the age of fifteen and under the age of twenty, above the junior swordsman, below the primary swordsman, below the primary magician, and below the primary magician.

Although Xiao Han has no intention of power, it is not good to think that he is in his position and planning his own affairs, and he really makes his family mess.

In the future war, he needs a force that can communicate with the strong. Even if he cannot win the battle, he will at least have the ability to protect himself.

In terms of political affairs, Xiao Han basically had a clearer concept. In general, all work in Fengcheng is thriving. If there is no threat of war, Fengcheng will definitely develop into a big city that surpasses the Dayue King City within five years, becoming the top ten cities in the western continent.

Within ten years, it is not impossible to catch up with the Compass City, the largest city in the western region.

In terms of military affairs, although Xiao Han has written a lot of military works on earth, they are all things that are forced by rote memory. He is completely an outsider. He can provide some of what he sees and sees. It is certain that he is useful. However, compared to the expert Xueying, his wonderful ideas are very effective, but when it comes to commanding wars, he is really inferior to Zhao Kuo, who talks about war on paper.

He was very relieved to command the army. In addition to providing necessary material support, he rarely involved in the military affairs. Except for the inner guard, it was an army that belonged only to him. The whole army was proud of entering the inner guard, so Xiao Han held on to the inner guard tightly, which was equivalent to controlling the entire army. Besides, Xueying could not have any intention of him. After all, he was already a child!

Military construction is very important. Power comes from the barrel of a gun. There is no army that can be defeated and invincible. Xiao Han said that he would control the Dayue Kingdom, so he would not even think about it. Therefore, the idea of ​​Fengcheng Legion in governing the army is to build an army that fights all-weather.

Xiao Han’s purpose of coming back this time is: expand the army!

The Fengcheng Legion (Rakshasa Legion) will expand its army of 200,000 within half a year, and the inner guards will expand to 10,000. In addition, the Black Armor Legion will also expand from 80,000 to 150,000. The Eastern Legion and the Northern Legion will also expand. In addition to the Royal City Guard Legion, the Dayue** team will exceed one million after the expansion, and it will be an elite regular army. In addition, Xiao Han also decided to establish two or three reserve corpses, train soldiers, and control the troops between 500,000 and 600,000, and enter the five major legions at any time!
