God Emperor of Sword Domain

Chapter 518 This City Is Too Clean

"City Lord, expand three times. This plan has far exceeded the area required by Floating Cloud City. Even if it is a fourth-level city, it doesn't need such a big city." Xu Maosheng worried that Ye Xuan's decision was made on the spur of the moment, and quickly dissuaded him. .

Officials from the Household Registration Department quickly persuaded: "City Master, now Floating Cloud City has a population of more than 37. The current scale of Floating Cloud City has a population limit of 60. After reaching 60 people, the city will become crowded, but It can still carry more people..."

"If the city expands three times, it will require at least one million people to maintain the prosperity of the city. According to the growth rate of the population of Floating Cloud City, it will take at least 30 years to reach..."

"However, the current scale of Floating Cloud City is close to a third-tier city, and the population growth rate is rapidly slowing down. It is estimated that after the population reaches 50, there will be no further growth. Judging from the population statistics of major cities in Kyushu, the population of third-tier cities is The population is between 60 and [-]. Therefore, whether Floating Cloud City needs to be expanded is still under discussion. From the perspective of population growth rate, Floating Cloud City does not need to be expanded within a hundred years."

The head of the Household Registration Department finally concluded that Floating Cloud City does not need to be expanded for the time being.

Apparently the head of the Household Registration Department had done the investigation seriously.

The third-level city in the Kyushu mainland is indeed of this scale, and the third-level city can only carry such a large scale, even if it is expanded, it will be difficult to attract more people.

Xu Maosheng also took up the conversation and said: "Besides, Liuyun City still has many shortcomings compared with other third-level cities. Although there are third-level resources produced, they are only limited to medicine pills. The surrounding area of ​​the city is still desolate, and it is already the limit to be able to develop to the size of a third-tier city. Regarding the seventh expansion, I have discussed with the officials of various departments for more than a month, and it has not yet been decided whether to expand."

Hearing so many different opinions, Ye Xuan was not angry. Since it was a matter of discussion, different opinions were naturally needed.

The process of discussion is the process of raising questions and solving problems. Ye Xuan is very happy to see such intense discussions.

After listening to everyone's opinions, Ye Xuan concluded: "I'm clear about the situation. My goal is to develop Floating Cloud City into a fourth-tier city within a year, so all plans are carried out according to the fourth-tier city. Everyone go back first Collect information and discuss it together after three days, so as to ask questions and solve problems.”

"A fourth-tier city?"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this goal, and then dispersed while discussing, each going back to think about the possibility of Floating Cloud City developing into a Tier [-] city.

To develop from a first-level city to a third-level city, one only needs to spend resources, but if a third-level city wants to develop to a fourth-level city, it is not enough to just spend resources.

……

Three days later, a wooden wheelchair was pushed slowly into Floating Cloud City by a waiter.

The one sitting in the wheelchair was naturally Fang Gunxiao.

The moment Fang Qiangxiao entered Floating Cloud City, his eyes lit up.

The man pushing the wheelchair said in surprise: "General, isn't this city too clean? It seems to be cleaner than the Imperial Capital."

Fang Qiangxiao also felt the same way. During the decades of fighting in the South and the North, he had seen eight hundred cities if not one thousand, but he had never seen such a tidy and clean city.

In the cities he had seen before, even if it was a third-tier or fourth-tier city, it was impossible for the inner city to be so clean.

In a densely populated city, sewage and garbage are absolutely unavoidable. Even if drainage ditches are dug, such ditches are often open to the air. Even if the drainage ditches are covered with stone slabs, the smell can still be smelled.

However, Floating Cloud City is completely different, the streets are very clean, and there is no sewage or drainage at all, and there is no peculiar smell at all.

Fang Qiangxiao opened his divine sense slightly, and immediately knew what was going on.

"It turns out that there are sewers underground."

It wasn't the first time Fang Gunxiao had seen an underground sewer.

In fact, the inner cities of Zhaohua City and Tianxiao City have underground drainage channels, but those are the drainage systems built underground with the ability of earth attribute warriors after the inner cities have developed to an extremely prosperous level. The resources are enormous, and only the top ten major cities in Kyushu like Chaohua City and Tianxiao City can support them.

"Help me up." Fang Qiangxiao stood up and walked slowly in Floating Cloud City. Everywhere he went, he could find the difference between this city and other cities in Kyushu.

Finally, a thought gradually emerged in my mind: This is a city that has been planned to build a great city in Kyushu from the very beginning. In such a barren area, how ambitious is it to dare to do so?
……

In the early morning of the third day, Ye Xuan once again convened officials at all levels in Floating Cloud City to discuss matters.

When Ye Xuan was about to go to the City Lord's Mansion, he received a letter from Fang Qiangxiao, knowing that Fang Qiangxiao had arrived yesterday, so he hurried to greet him.

When the two met in the city, they were both people with a bright heart. A smile was enough for each other, and there was no need to say anything.

After saying hello, Ye Xuan pushed Fang Gunxiao to the City Lord's Mansion together.

After briefly introducing Fang Gunxiao's identity, the discussion officially began.

After three days of data collection, Xu Maosheng felt that the expansion plan proposed by Ye Xuan was too sudden, so he said first: "City Master, isn't this plan too advanced? Floating Cloud City is far from reaching the standard of a fourth-level city. "

"Where do you think Floating Cloud City is lacking and cannot develop into a Tier [-] city, bring them up and we will solve them one by one."

In fact, Ye Xuan's goal is not as simple as a fourth-tier city, but development must be done step by step, first discovering a fourth-tier city, and then looking for new development opportunities.

When everyone present heard that Ye Xuan's plan was to develop Floating Cloud City into a Tier [-] city, they all had complicated expressions on their faces.

Xu Maosheng took the lead in saying: "City Master, the geographical location of Liuyun City is not good. It is located at the junction of Donglu State, Nanhuang State and Longyuan State. Moreover, the terrain is steep, and there is no communication with the surrounding Xiongcheng. The third-level city It's the limit."

The head of the Household Registration Department answered: "City Master, just as the city guard said, an important symbol of a fourth-tier city is transportation. Looking at the male cities on the mainland of Kyushu, every city has all-round traffic, connecting cities with a radius of thousands of miles. Stand up and form a large network. Only with such a scale can a fourth-tier city be formed. If this cannot be achieved, it will definitely not be able to develop a city with a population of one million."

This is indeed the case, the position of Floating Cloud City is very embarrassing.

To the south is the Southern Barren State, which is desolate and uninhabited.

To the southwest is Longyuan Prefecture, which is thousands of miles away from the Longyuan Army Station, Tufang City.

Although there are a few people around Tufang City, it is still desolate.

Moreover, the road from Liuyun City to Tufang City was rugged and difficult. The Longyuan army would rather take a detour to South Barren State than Liuyun City to transfer supplies. This shows how difficult this thousand-mile mountain road is.

The only transportation in Floating Cloud City is to go east to Hongbo City.

It is impossible for such a remote location to develop into a majestic city.
