"Xianglong City on No. A08 Floating Island is a modern three-dimensional city that we have just completed the basic structure and important public facilities in three full years. Before that, this kind of city only existed in concepts and fantasies .”

"It takes into account many factors such as the comfort of people's social life, the convenience of industrial and commercial development, the tranquility of science and technology education, the robustness of military fortresses, and even the scalability of future development and transformation. The overall performance fully surpasses the city walls of the ground world. model city."

"And it is an independent floating island, and the city is built on a mountain, so there is no need for a comfortable city wall. The three-dimensional load-bearing structure expands the construction field and makes the degree of freedom higher..."

In the sky of Xianglong City, a medium-sized floating ship that is completely different from ordinary floating ships, covered with a spherical glass structure, is flying along the air passage of Xianglong City.

At this time, as the actual manager of Xianglong City, and also the highest administrator of the entire A08 floating island, Yiren named [Sky Consul] is sending a message to several other members of this strange and gorgeous spaceship. The person in robes explained the situation of Xianglong City.

After becoming the manager, she changed her name to 'Xiangyin' to show her love and attention to the A08 floating island. As for the meaning expressed in it, no one paid attention to it.

Under the spaceship is Xianglong City, which still only has the main structure.

A large number of engineering personnel, working with light engineering machinery, are busy shuttling among them, and some of the brand-new floating power machinery driven by pumice stones are transporting various materials, making the entire Xianglong with a three-dimensional structure built on the mountain range The city is full of science fiction.

Kong Huan, who just arrived here, looked at this scene and even felt a sense of space-time confusion, mistakenly thinking that he had traveled to the future world again, and even if these appeared on the drawings as early as the beginning of construction, he had a certain concept , but seeing it with my own eyes is completely different from the drawing or even the simulation on the sand table.

"The load-bearing columns in these three-dimensional structures are really all right?"

Looking at the pillars supporting all levels of the entire city, the two elder attendants beside Kong Huan asked worriedly, if these pillars were broken, it would not be one or two buildings that would be destroyed, but the entire building. The structure of the first floor, and according to the plan, these structures are at least half a small area, involving hundreds of people.

Regarding this, Xiangyin, the consul of the sky at the side, explained with a smile: "These load-bearing columns are the most important of our Xianglong City, and they are all made of the latest alloy steel reinforcement, combined with strong cement. And it also has a structure built with several cement pillars.”

"The diameter of a single concrete column is only two meters, and the diameter of a single load-bearing column is nearly five meters. Although it is a waste of territory, the safety of the people is the most important thing in our opinion. As for the high-altitude strong wind Problem, especially after considering this factor, these three-dimensional structural areas are set in the mountains, and the residential areas are even buried in the mountains."

"Well, not bad. However, most of the living areas are set inside the mountain. Will there be some lack of light?"

This is an important issue. For ordinary people, if they live in the dim interior of the mountain all day long, even with artificial light sources, it is easy to lead to emotional depression, which in turn breeds crime. This is the conclusion of the psychology team, and it is also The reason why friends can't survive underground for a long time.

If it weren't for the sky territory of the floating island, the senior members of the Pengzu would not know what the future of the Pengzu would be like.

"As for the light source, the elders don't have to worry. In the construction of this city, we set it up based on the humanization of the society and the rationalization of the fortress. With the cooperation of various departments, the factor of the light on people's emotions is of course also taken into consideration. Inside."

At this time, beside a metal-covered spherical pumice in the center of the spaceship, the pilot who received the order from the consul adjusted the mechanical parts on the bridge to stimulate the power of the pumice around the spaceship, so that through the control of the propulsion vector, let The glass spherical spaceship approached a huge hole in the mountain.

"Actually, it's not easy to solve if it's underground, but here it's at an altitude of nearly [-] meters, so it's not a difficult problem for the researchers..."

In the calm words of the consul, the spaceship easily passed through the cave, which may be 60 meters high, and entered the interior of the mountain. To the relief and surprise of Kong Huan and others, the light in the mountain was almost the same as that of the outside world, as if there was no light at all. Like a dome without a sky...

"This is……"

At this time, even if it was a little prepared for Kong Huan, he had to show a slightly groggy expression.

When he was outside the mountain, he could see clearly that the top of the mountain and even most of the outside were not broken, but at this time the dome was bright.

Satisfied with everyone's reaction, the consul pointed to the bright 'sky' with a smile and explained.

"Because our family has now entered the development mode of the whole family planning, all resources are serving the three-way construction, so we don't have to consider the issue of cost at all. In the mountain, we uniformly control the planning height and placement of all buildings in the mountain. The location and even its shape have certain requirements to ensure the maximum living area of ​​the light source.”

"At the same time, through a large number of mirrors, we use the way of reflection to gather the sunlight from the outside through the channels connecting the outside to the mirror surface of the dome inside the mountain, and then inject it into the hollowed out mountain. .Even in order to meet the various angular deviations caused by sunlight, we calculated the mirror height required to be deflected per minute, and then manufactured a mechanically automated overall rotating structure for each region..."

A lot of technical terms make people around confused.

But to sum it up in one sentence, this usually huge project can already automatically adjust the sunlight angle under the care of a small number of security personnel.

To most people, this just seems magnificent and powerful, but Kong Huan heard some other things from it: clocks, electronic tubes, logic operations, circuits, automation...

Combining these things, a long-lost thing popped up in Kong Huan's mind: computer.

With the current technology, a simple computer can be made, but people don't have any experience in it, and Kong Hua... he can only use a computer, but he can't make a computer.

So, Kong Huan resolutely wrote down this point, and planned to throw it directly to the electronics research department when he went back. He still had great confidence in those researchers.As for the Civilization Control Center, it is currently studying the theory related to the electromagnetic power engine, and it is estimated that it will have to wait a few years before there will be a vacancy.

"However, the sky is not the sky, but the dome. It's still such a big dome full of glass. You have to pay attention to safety."

"In this regard, we will strengthen structural monitoring. With the current technology, we can only do so. Of course, we also set up support points with pumice stones, combined with the dome suspension system and bracket system, to form a triple protection."

The spaceship stopped on a flying platform protruding from a spine-like building in the center of the mountain space, connecting the bottom of the mountain with the dome. This spine-like building is the administrative center of Xianglong City, and its height is this Height inside the mountain: 350 meters. If there were not many high-rise buildings and the pumice suspension system, the stacked model, this kind of high-rise buildings, with the current technology of Pengzu, may have to wait for many years.

The surrounding area of ​​the building is full of various three-dimensional building foundations, and only a small number of public facilities have been completed. The civil housing is basically still undergoing modular construction in the factory, waiting for the immigrants to choose the type they like after they arrive, so they are still empty. .

Under the leadership of Xiangyin Consul, the members of the spaceship filed out.

The 20-meter-diameter, glass-spherical spaceship with a three-story structure is the car of the Pengzu high-level visiting group on the A08 floating island. Not only the Archon and other A08's existing management and the three people from the illusion, but also people from Shenting God attendants, officials of the Law Court of the Executive Yuan, and generals of the Military Academy.

After the floating islands in various places have entered the third phase of personnel transfer one after another, as a management organization, of course, they have also entered an important stage of final discussion.

Initially, the friends were only on the floating islands in the nine territories, according to the following rules: 1 executive leader [Sky Consul], 3 to 9 [Higher Council] [High Councilors] responsible for important decision-making judgments (take odd numbers, come from you God-level and energy-based soul-level, there is no distinction between elders’ homes and gods’ courts) with a fixed management system.

Underneath, there are all kinds of temporary positions, such as temporary port administrators, temporary construction coordinating administrators, temporary agricultural administrators, and so on.

After the immigration program is stabilized, the government needs to set up formal institutions.

Among them, the people of each district will elect a [district chief] (analogous to the former mayor), a [sub-city mayor] divided by the mountain (analogous to the former senior officials), and the entire floating island There are 1 [members] of the [Executive Council], a daily affairs discussion organization.

As for other areas such as the regional public security department and the city affairs bureau of the sub-city, they are all arranged by the teams led by these district chiefs and city chiefs.The remaining important departments, such as the consul, will be handed over to the [Executive Yuan] that commands all the floating islands.

In fact, from Kong Huan’s point of view, due to such a big migration, the Peng people have changed from the original “friend city-province-city-village-household” agricultural modernization social administrative unit to the present It is a modernized urbanization administrative unit of 'high-rise-floating island city-city sub-city-division-household'.

But because this kind of change is not natural like human beings, but is forced to change due to the ice age, so I am afraid that there will be a lot of details in the future. For this reason, the high-level still maintains control over important administrative positions, violent departments, and strategic decisions. Absolute control of the sector for correction at any time.

Of course, Kong Huan doesn't know how the future will develop, and they can only take one step at a time.

"So, let's take that first step now."

Accompanied by the sound of many footsteps, Kong Huan and his party entered the administrative center of Xianglong City.
