Compared with Blue Star's long vacation, which often lasts for even a week, the people of Corel are undoubtedly hardworking. They only have one day to practice on Midwinter Day in name only.

In fact, strictly speaking, for many people living at the bottom of society, they often don’t even have this day off.

The long-term oppression of the upper class, coupled with the daily wage system implemented in many places, means that those among them who have no savings are likely to go hungry as soon as they stop working.

As a result, many immigrants who came to the desolate land of Zeelandia suddenly discovered that they had inadvertently lived a life that only the middle class could live in the past.

Yes, in Corell, if you can live every festive and decent festival without the slightest psychological burden or survival pressure.

So congratulations, you are most likely already a middle-class person from a well-off family.

On this day, all the construction sites in the camp announced a suspension of work, and each of them was given a year-end bonus. Although it was not much, it was enough for them to buy a table of fresh ingredients for a good holiday.

Then comes the nightly bonfire carnival, magic fireworks and the final light and shadow drama.

It felt like the door to a new world was opening up to them.

It was such a psychedelic and beautiful day.

Maybe they were having too much fun, and many people slept so deeply that they were a little uncomfortable being woken up by the "bell" to start work the next morning.

Maybe it's holiday syndrome

But people soon discovered something was different.

Early in the morning, jackals went from door to door to announce:

All men over the age of 40 and above went to the main square to assemble first. All underage children also gathered separately in another place and announced important matters.

So many people who had just picked up their tools and were about to start work followed the flow of people ignorantly to the front of the Griffin Mountains, where the main city was still in front of the foundation where the sewers and trenches were being buried.

This is also where many people are confused. They can understand the sewer. After all, it is a symbol of a large city-state.

Only when all the waste water from eating, drinking, and drinking is discharged from the sewers can the city-state be kept clean and tidy, and it will not easily breed infectious diseases or even plagues.

As for the trench burial, Anna, who had just gone to report to her teacher and adoptive father Fisher, asked this question out of curiosity.

At that time, Fischer thought of Levi's somewhat painful answer when he asked him:

"The magic research team over at Ige has begun to study the energy supply system with the Myser energy core as the energy core in the era of the Nether Empire. After all, the Myser energy core stolen from the magic wearer was just for Kaka.

The functions are also overkill, aren't they?

"But we currently do not have the technology and ability to produce Myseronic cores at all. If we rely solely on the independent energy radiation of Myseronic cores, we can only maintain the function of magic instruments within one kilometer, so we can only try to build a magic network.

"However, they can't say yet whether it will be more cost-effective to use lattice magic transmission in the future, or whether it will be more cost-effective to build a pipeline network, so now we should bury the pipeline trenches in advance.

"Now it's just a waste of more manpower. If we wait until the entire White City is built and then rebuild the road again, the cost will be dozens or hundreds of times higher."

This is the planning lesson that Levi Lanxing experienced in that era. In a big city like Zhonghai, the cost of laying overhead lines to the ground is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. Therefore, the originally planned grounding plan has also changed from the whole city to the townships.

Free planning', and then taking the lead in implementing it in core areas have suffered losses in this regard.

After all, no one who lived in that era could have imagined that in twenty or thirty years, both technology and all aspects of life would change so much and so fast.

It's so fast that people can't help but wish it would be slower, wait a little longer, and wait for those vulnerable groups who are on the verge of being eliminated but are already powerless.

So when Fisher faced Anna's question, the red-robed mage rarely showed hope and yearning. He touched little Anna's head and replied:

"My dear, that's a network reserved for magic lines. If one day, they really succeed in building it, then even if you are in the streets and alleys of Minas Tirith, you will be able to see the lights shining in all directions.

, dispelling every darkness and haze in the night.

"Under the surveillance of the surveillance eye, all crimes on the surface will leave evidence of impact and be pursued and investigated.

"That way, even late at night, children as old as you can take to the streets openly and without fear, without being too afraid of being targeted by criminals.

"Because everything is under the protection of magic and under the protection of the lord.

"Even at that time, brothers like yours who have no magic talent will be able to use magic instruments and borrow spells from the spell bank."

The painting that Fisher painted for his apprentice was undoubtedly a success. Today, he could clearly feel that Anna's motivation and desire to learn magic was even stronger.

It just made him a little bit dumbfounded. When he assigned Anna homework two weeks ago, the little girl complained that he was not a human being and used "Magic from Beginner to the Burial" every day to ravage her undeveloped little brain.

As a result, as soon as I heard that my brother might be able to use magic during his lifetime, his motivation instantly became overwhelming.

So much so that Fisher once wondered whether the brother and sister were actually related.

What surprised the people was that the person who came to announce the so-called important news to them today was neither the ferocious-looking jackal nor the bald mage, but their lord, the elf merchant.

Mr. Levis.

Although Li Wei was elegantly dressed and had both the magnificence of a superior and the mystery of a spell caster, he just seemed sleepy.

It's so pitiful that Levi is really sleepy right now, so sleepy that he feels as if he could die standing on the spot as soon as he closes his eyes.

But due to some uneasy speculations in his heart, this time, he wanted to try to delay the time of entering deep sleep as much as possible.

The camp is in full swing, and there are still many things that he has not yet arranged.

The general direction has not been arranged yet. What if I sleep for eight or ten years again this time? With the virtues of the idiots under my command, God knows what this new city will look like when I wake up.

That guy Fischer said jokingly last night:

"Boss, just don't worry. Anyway, we have long been used to you sleeping every few years. Besides, we are not weak now! Maybe you will be able to sleep for decades this time.

, when you wake up, maybe we will all be legendary per capita and unify the entire Northland."

Li Wei was speechless on the spot, thinking to himself, I will unite your sister!

The Arcane Brotherhood of Luskan is eying you to the west, there is the threat from the orcs invading southwards in the north, there are hidden dangers from the trolls and the demons of Hellgate Castle in the High Forest to the east, and there are potential threats from various cults to the south. None of them are

Fuel efficient lamp.

To be honest, he was really afraid that when he woke up, oh ho, what a territory, all the bastards under his command were dead, and then he was lying on his back on the operating table in the black cell, and maybe there were also a group of drows.

Standing on my belly and having a party

That picture is a bit scary just thinking about it.

Although Zeelandia has developed smoothly over the years, and its backbone is no worse than some large city-states, both its foundation and high-end buildings are too weak.

In other words, we need a city but not a city, and we need an army but not an army. The current batch can only be regarded as an officer corps at best.

If there is another wave of orcs in the spring next year, it doesn’t need to be much. Compared with the number of ten thousand orcs they defeated before, even if they managed to survive by relying on the half-built city wall, maybe the new camp will be

More than half will be killed or injured.

But it's different with him here. Even if he encounters a legend that he can't defeat, he can always call in reinforcements.

Not to mention the distance, just the ancient gold and silver dragon couple Vera and Silver Wing from the Silver Moon Federation are enough to dissuade most enemies.

But this is a trump card. If he comes to Vera and the others every now and then, although the Metal Dragon has always had the tradition of respecting the old and loving the young, Li Wei still has some self-awareness. Maybe Vera treats her like this out of debt to her children.

Tou Yinlong has some good feelings as a 'sustenance', but if he is so shameless that he goes to Vera and Yinyi to help him fight in three days, then any feelings that are not even friendship will be lost very quickly.

It will be wasted.

If he had to settle for the next best thing, he could have given part of the benefits in exchange and asked Xia Lanweilosi and his legendary servant to come as reinforcements, without even having them come in person.

With Xia Lanwei Luosi's connections and reputation that she has been operating in Jishui City for hundreds of years, she can attract at least dozens of high-level professionals by raising her arms and shouting, and he will only have to pay part of the hard work.

This is where the difference lies.

This is something that other family members other than Li Wei cannot do, at least not in a timely manner.

Even at Blue Star, there are many newcomers in the workplace who also have this illusion:

I think my boss is like a mascot every day. He comes here from time to time to see me, sign autographs, have heart-to-heart talks, and find faults. He just doesn't do his job, and then exploits and takes away the income from his work.

But a boss with a little bit of ability and responsibility can maintain the wages of his employees and the operation of the company despite the ups and downs of the general environment, even if he sells his house and borrows money.

When the company suffered a fatal blow, he used his own connections to carry out crisis public relations.

When everyone loses confidence, it is still like the remaining flag on the high ground, giving everyone the confidence to persevere and leading everyone through the difficulties.

There are even many strong people who have been followed by their employees even though they have failed to start a business several times.

Li Wei didn't think too much, he just acted purely based on his heart.

Perhaps in his opinion, he just wanted to create an environment that made him more comfortable.

In this process, you will inevitably encounter some beings who help you achieve this goal for various purposes, and they are your dependents.

He just wants to try his best to ensure that every family member will not regret their original choice.

Let the people who choose to believe in him regard Zelandia and the White City built by themselves in the future as their home from the bottom of their hearts and protect it.

Li Wei stood on the temporarily erected high platform, looked around at the confused people, then steeled himself and said loudly:

"I don't know what kind of life you have lived, and I don't know how you got here. All of this is your choice.

"You choose to trust your intuition, or you choose to believe me, believe what I once told you, come here, as long as you are willing to work hard, I will let you live a stable life.

"I believe that after more than half a month has passed, you should have some experience of this."

Hearing this, the people below all nodded in the affirmative. Although when they first came to this so-called new city, they felt quite frustrated that they had been 'cheated', but after more than ten days, they suddenly discovered that,

I and my family seem to be doing pretty well.

As long as you are willing to work hard, you can get the remuneration specified in the "labor contract", and you don't have to worry about your hard-earned income being collected again by those neighborhood gangs in protection fees.

Although food here costs money, most prices are much lower than in Silver Moon City-State, so much so that some people even came up with the idea of ​​reselling supplies from the two places.
