One of the discussion topics: Regarding the economic development direction and strategy of Aurora Town in the second half of the year.

Discussion process: slightly…

The topic is finalized: In the second half of the year, the development tasks of Aurora Town will be carried out around "three key points and five foundations";
Focus [-]: Create a new forestry system dominated by apple orchards, develop fruit and vegetable markets on outer islands, vigorously explore the remaining value of fruit forests, and study the feasibility of piloting a coexistence system for forest chicken breeding;
Key point [-]: Expand the number of reed chickens to the maximum limit in the shortest possible time, form a stable meat and egg supply chain as soon as possible, and establish the Wuguang Island reed chicken brand effect;

The five foundations are grain autumn harvest, snow beer, snow salt, Leihu rainy season trial, and tourism. On the road to new economic sources, existing businesses cannot be abandoned and efforts must be made to maintain them at a high level to provide cities and towns. A steady stream of income.

Discussion topic two: The first draft of the future three-ring regional plan of Aurora Town and related construction plans.

Discussion process: abbreviated
Topic finalized: Given that the development potential of the Second Ring Road area has been exhausted at this stage, expansion into the forest is an inevitable result.

At this meeting, it was decided to move outward to form a north-south vertical boundary parallel to the second ring fence.

The boundary reaches the edge of Lei Lake in the north and separates the two areas of Lei Lake and Guolin;

West to the west side of the orchard and the west side of the barracks;
south to the southern coast;

During the town expansion process, the Morning Light Corps first cleans up the wild beasts and monsters within the area to provide safety guarantee for subsequent personnel to develop the forest; then they cut down the trees, level the land, and then further plan the exact use of the land.

During the process of opening up the remote area, a high-strength fence covering the entire third ring area needs to be built;
In order to cooperate with the third economic development priority, the construction team also needs to plan and build a high-quality commercial district in the second ring area;

Considering that the first batch of residents in Beimai Village had lived in simple townhouses for almost a year, in order to improve the quality of living and serve as an example for subsequent immigrants, it was necessary to demolish the townhouses and rebuild [-] high-quality single-family wooden houses on the original site. , given to this group of residents who settled in Beimai Village.

Discussion topic three: Arrangement of redundant labor in cities and towns.

Discussion process: abbreviated
The meeting concluded that after the development of the southern forest land is completed, there will be 3000 idle laborers. After a short rest, these residents will soon be put into the process of opening up the third ring area to ensure that the labor is not wasted.

The above is the entire content of the meeting. After three hours, the meeting ended successfully.

diamond island

amethyst castle

This is the residence of the patriarchs of the Amethyst family and the resting place for retired elders. The castle is located at the southern foot of the Diamond Mountains, with a gentle slope and an area of ​​hundreds of acres.

"Report! Report to the head of the family! A messenger from the Red Coral Family is here to visit!"

"Please."

Above the high hall, a voice fell.

"Invite the messenger into the palace!"

"Invite the messenger to enter the palace..."

The sound of shouting spread far away, and after a while, a middle-aged man who looked rich in a red ceremonial robe respectfully stepped into the hall. Under the guidance of the person in front of him, he walked to the steps and stood still.

The man raised his head and looked up the steps, but he didn't know whether it was the dim light in the hall or the elemental power rippling on the man's body that obscured his sight. In short, it was difficult to see his face clearly, and he could only tell a few things. "Messenger Ayelet, I have met the Earl."

"Ah."

The man on the steps responded lightly and then asked.

"But I brought a reply from Quint."

"Yes, this is an autographed letter from our family master. I have been specifically ordered to deliver it personally to the earl."

Ayelay took out a white envelope from his chest. Before he could hand it to the attendant, an irresistible force came from the steps, taking the letter away from him and opening it directly in front of the messenger. Check.

Immediately afterwards, there was an oppressive silence in the hall.

Just when cold sweat broke out on Ayelet's forehead, the man on the stage rubbed his hands gently, and the entire letter instantly turned into powder in his palms, and uttered two words expressionlessly.

"see a visitor out."

After leaving the castle, the frightened Ayelet did not dare to stay for a moment, and quickly went to the port and left by boat.

In the castle, Richard, who had just read Quint's reply, could not calm down for a long time.

"What's wrong, sir? Didn't he agree? The conditions we offered are sincere enough."

Behind Richard, a tall and beautiful young woman walked out quietly. Her body was curved and her face was delicate, like a bright red rose with thorns.

"I thought it was too simple."

Richard closed his eyes and held his lady's hand against his chest.

"Our son died in their hands for no reason. His body sank into the sea with no trace of his soul. Now, the Amethyst family is in a dilemma. It's really sad."

"Master, this is not your fault."

The young woman comforted her softly.

"Who would have thought that those usually sanctimonious guys would actually add insult to injury. Even the Grand Duke is unwilling to help. Isn't he worried that the Amethyst family will be gone and the Red Coral family will be the only one in the future?"

"Do you know why Quint refused?"

"why?"

The woman suddenly became quiet and looked at the man without blinking. She was the one who came up with the marriage plan, but it didn't work now, and she was partly responsible for it.

"Quint said that under the rule of the Grand Duke of Tijuana, there were two hereditary count families, namely Amethyst and Red Coral, which are adjacent to the sea.

These two families account for more than 3% of the principality's area and population, but the relationship between Amethyst and Red Coral is very discordant, with conflicts and frictions, and mutual restrictions.

Have you ever thought about whether it would be possible to eliminate the historical conflicts left over from past generations if the marriage between our two major families is successful? "

"While it's unlikely, it does exist."

The woman nodded.

"Very good. If once the two major earl families put aside their old grudges and shake hands to make peace, will it be a good thing or a bad thing for the Grand Duke?"

Hearing this, the woman could not answer, because human nature cannot stand the test. Even if the integration of the two families can bring greater improvement to the national power, for the Grand Duke, this is the beginning of shaking the rule. If it were anyone else sitting in No one in that position would allow this to happen.

"If I tell you that from the very beginning, the so-called conflict between the two families was instigated by the Grand Duke, what should you think?"

The light from outside shines into the hall from the gate, passes through the long hall, and falls on the man's cold face like a thousand-year glacier...
