God Emperor of Sword Domain

Chapter 519 The Grand Canal

In the council hall of the city lord's mansion.

On the wall is a regional map of Floating Cloud City. Xu Maosheng analyzed the geographical location of Floating Cloud City, and finally concluded the problems that prevent Floating Cloud City from developing into a fourth-tier city.

"The first problem is transportation. A major sign of a fourth-tier city is a population of millions and a prosperous outer city. Looking at all the fourth-tier cities in Kyushu, all of them have convenient transportation. Floating Cloud City is at this point , there is no condition to develop into a fourth-tier city.”

After listening to Ye Xuan, he felt that his analysis was very thorough, looked at everyone, and asked: "The city guard's analysis is good, so who has a solution?"

The staff at all levels of the City Lord's Mansion present looked at each other and began to discuss in a low voice: "How can this be solved? This is the condition of Floating Cloud City."

"That's right. To the east of Liuyun City is the Panlong Mountains, to the south is the Southern Barren State, and to the north is [-] miles of wasteland, and you can reach Hongbo City to the west. Hongbo City is only a third-level city. There is no way to develop into a third-tier city, how can we do it?"

Everyone discussed for a long time, but they couldn't find a solution, and their faces were full of sorrow.

Only Fang Qiangxiao sat quietly at the side, there was no worry on his face, but there was a sense of confidence in his mind.

However, it wasn't that he came up with a solution, but that he had discussed the surrounding situation of Floating Cloud City with Ye Xuan while drinking and chatting in the Divine General's Mansion, and knew that Ye Xuan had found a solution.

Ye Xuan waited until these people had finished discussing, got up and asked, "Has anyone thought of a solution?"

"City Lord, the subordinates are incompetent, and they really can't think of a solution." Everyone sighed and replied.

"Okay, let me explain the solution." Ye Xuan walked to the map hanging on the wall, drew a line from Liuyun City to Longyuan State with his fingers, and said loudly, "Dig a Grand Canal here to connect Floating Cloud City and Longyuan State."

"canal?"

"canal?"

Everyone looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.

Due to the existence of extraordinary power in the mainland of Kyushu, the strong standing at the top of the world have many solutions for transportation, such as flying boats, such as teleportation arrays.

In this world, groups capable of digging canals can use airships or powerful flying spirit beasts.

And those who need to use water transportation are ordinary people, and they do not have the ability to dig canals.

Therefore, there is no precedent for digging canals in the mainland of Kyushu.

"You heard me right, it's the canal!"

Pointing at the map, Ye Xuan continued to explain: "Starting from Lushui, five hundred miles north of Liuyun City, leading Lushui to the south, excavating all the way, passing through Liuyun City, then turning southwest, entering Longyuan Prefecture, all the way to Tufang City .This is the first section of the canal. After the completion, the canal will continue to be dug southward until it reaches the largest lake group in Yongyuan Prefecture, 'Longze Lake'."

call!
After hearing the plan, all the people present showed shocked expressions on their faces, and some were even frightened.

This project is too big and too scary.

Starting from the largest river "Lushui" in Donglu Prefecture, a [-]-mile canal will be dug to Longyuan Prefecture.

This is not over yet, the second section of the canal will continue to be dug all the way to Longze Lake in Longyuan Prefecture, which will exceed [-] miles in total.

Digging a five-thousand-mile canal is unimaginable.

However, the plan to stun these people has not yet been revealed.

Among the people present, only Fang Gunxiao knew a little.

Ye Xuan's goal is not only the five-thousand-mile canal, but also a third section, from Longze Lake to Meteorite Sea.

Once the canal is completed, it will have a total length of [-] miles. It will start from Donglu State, cross Longyuan State, and reach Meteorite Sea.

The plan of this grand canal is so terrible that it is going to change the structure of Kyushu.

However, Ye Xuan only said the first two paragraphs, and the last paragraph is temporarily reserved. It is a long-term plan, and saying it now will only cause panic among some spirits in Longyuan Prefecture.

When Fang Qiangxiao heard about the Grand Canal project for the first time when he was in the Divine General's Mansion, he was extremely shocked.

Once this Grand Canal is completed, it will allow the control of the race to extend to every corner of Longyuan State.

For this grand plan, Fang Qiangxiao rushed to Floating Cloud City regardless of the condition of his legs, just to see if this once desolate small city could bear this shocking feat?

The moment Fang Qiangxiao stepped into Floating Cloud City, he already had the answer.

This is not an ordinary small frontier city, its layout far surpasses all the cities he has seen in his life.

At that moment, he had a vague feeling that a great city was about to rise on the land of Kyushu, surpassing any city, extending the control of the human race to Longyuan State.

Let this long-lost land return to the embrace of the human race.

In the meeting hall, people at all levels of the City Lord's Mansion were discussing intensely.

Some think that the plan is too big to be pursued alone.

Others got emotional and wanted to accomplish the feat.

If no one stands up to make a decision, then this shocking plan will definitely continue to be debated, and it may not be possible to argue for a result in ten or eight years.

However, this is a world where the strong are respected.

Ye Xuan likes this world, as long as he decides for himself, he doesn't need other people's consent at all.

"The city lord's order! The canal plan is officially launched from this moment! You don't need to argue whether this plan is feasible, all you need to do is how to do the canal plan well!"

The strong are respected, and no one is qualified to resist.

The discussion in the chamber quickly quieted down.

"Now let's discuss how to carry out the canal plan. If there are any problems, we will solve them one by one." After Ye Xuan saw that everyone was quiet, he began to guide the meeting process.

Xu Maosheng was the first to ask a question: "City Master, my subordinates have never heard of such a large project as digging a canal. But I estimate in my heart that it must consume a lot of manpower and material resources. Let's not talk about the entire canal, let's talk about the first section first." The [-]-mile canal, if it is dug, I am afraid that it will not be completed in ten or eight years."

"It doesn't take that long, and it doesn't need a lot of manpower." Ye Xuan looked around and asked, "Does anyone know about the diversion of the Snow River in Longxiang City?"

Floating Cloud City is located in a remote area, there are people who have heard of this incident, but not many know the details.

Fang Qiangxiao saw that the people present didn't know much about it, so he rolled the wheelchair and took the initiative to explain: "Then let me explain. The snow river diverted to a total length of [-] miles, and a hundred mountain-crushing beasts were used. , It took a day. And those one hundred mountain-piercing beasts have already been brought back to Floating Cloud City by your city lord."

"Thirty miles, one day? Wouldn't it take fifty days for fifteen hundred miles?" Hearing this answer, someone immediately exclaimed.

Ye Xuan reached out and tapped on the map, and said: "It is not necessary to dig [-] miles. The road from Liuyun City to Longyuan Prefecture is so deep. As long as these deep ravines are opened up, the length of digging that really needs to be cut It can be shortened by a third."
