I didn't open it in another world, I'm sure

In fact, this has not yet reached the limit of Dawn City's containment.According to Nangong Xiao and Qiuye's estimates, if they gather with all their strength, as long as the war in the north does not stop, then Dawn City can completely gather a population of 200 million or more.

With the support of King Zhao's Mansion, even if Nangong Xiao doesn't plant food himself, relying on the private granary of King Zhao's Mansion alone is enough for millions of people to consume until next summer's harvest.And once next year's summer harvest arrives, the food supply of King Zhao's Mansion will increase several times, because Zhao Guo under the rule of King Zhao's Mansion has gradually promoted the agricultural development method of the magical system explored by Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan.

As long as there is no sudden large-scale natural and man-made disasters, theoretically, next year's grain harvest in Zhao country can be at least doubled, and if it is in some better areas, it can even increase by three or four times.

If there is no accident, next year Zhao Guo will definitely have happy troubles such as good harvests and cheap food.

And even without Zhao Guo's support, relying solely on Nangong Xiao's magic to give birth, it can still persist until next year's summer harvest, and when the summer harvest arrives next year, based on the currently planned land reclamation in Shuguang City, it would be enough for millions of people under normal circumstances of consumed.

Although Dawn City is not short of food and can accommodate more people, Nangong Xiao, Qiu Ye and others have discussed for a long time, but decided to stop here, because the population ratio of the human race is too large, which does not conform to the plan that Nangong Xiao made at the beginning. , and because the management of Dawn City is basically from the dragon race, it is a taboo in itself for a minority to rule a majority.

So after gathering a population of almost 70 people, Nangong Xiao asked Qiu Ye to move at least [-] poor households from Zhao, and if possible, tens of thousands of elves from the elves.

In the end, Qiu Ye told Nangong Xiao that it would be no problem to move 800 poor households from Zhao State. After all, Zhao State has more than 6000 million households, with a total population of more than 70 million, and moving [-] households is only [-] million people. It's not a problem, especially since Nangong Xiao is also responsible for the consumption and resettlement costs of these migrants, and under normal circumstances there will be no public complaints.

But Qiuye on the elves side can't guarantee it. Nangong Xiao also understands this. After all, he is not the prince of the elves. If he wants people, he has to approach the high-level elves. It's hard to say whether he can negotiate. .

In this regard, Nangong Xiao can only ensure the proportion of the population of the Dragon Race in Dawn City as much as possible, and the introduction of other ethnic groups can only be dealt with according to the situation.

With the passage of time in Dawn City, in late September, apart from the occasional small-scale refugees entering Kerton Province with a little luck, there was no large-scale influx of refugees.

And Zhao Guo's migration was also very smooth. The rich and powerful Qiu Ye directly activated the teleportation array to transfer the population, so within a few days, there were 70 more households in Dawn City, almost [-] dragon people.

Coupled with the population of tens of thousands of people who have gradually settled down, the population of Dawn City now exceeds 10 million.

The main ethnic groups are the dragon race and the human race, and the proportion can be said to be half and half.In addition, there are tens of thousands of elves, but these elves are temporarily settled in Dawn City as employers. It can be said that they are foreign laborers working for Dawn City and cannot be counted as permanent residents.

As for the population migration contact sent to the high-level elves, Nangong Xiao had no choice but to give up for the time being as there was no response yet.

At present, Nangong Xiao will first transform the population of more than 100 million in Dawn City into an industrial population through various methods.

Dawn City suddenly ushered in hundreds of thousands of dragon-human population, and of course it couldn't be hidden from Renoias of Jino Ker City.

Renoias was also terrified of the unrestrained behavior of the prince of the dragon-human race. This was simply a blatant act of bringing the dragon-human race to occupy the territory of the human race. If it was in the past, it would have sparked a war.

But Renoas also knows that as long as His Royal Highness the dragon-human prince doesn't directly raise the flag to separate the territory under the jurisdiction of Dawn City from Stentel, then the high-level officials at Stentel King's Capital will definitely turn their backs on this. , even if the prince really did this, Renoias felt that the upper echelons of the royal capital would still choose to forbear for the time being.

The only consolation is that this dragon-human prince accepted the canonization of King Stantel not long ago and officially became the first-class earl of the Kingdom of Stentel. territory.

In other words, in terms of face, the prince of the Dragon Race has given King Stentel enough, and this also shows in reverse that the prince of the Dragon Race does not want to completely tear himself apart with King Stantel.

This is already a very good result for the Stentel Kingdom, which is currently in a bad situation.

Closer to home, with the large-scale reduction of the influx of refugees and the arrival of several 10 people of the dragon race, Dawn City has also entered a stage of comprehensive digestion.

If Dawn City is to maintain long-term stability, it is necessary to completely digest these populations, convert them into industrial population, and have a sufficient sense of belonging to Dawn City.

To achieve this step, in addition to the most basic material supply, reasonable and strict legal constraints, and strong military deterrence, a high degree of ideological unity is also required.

Regarding this, Nangong Xiao, Chu Xuan and a group of old people in the palace held a closed-door meeting that lasted for several days.

The final result is that Dawn City formally implements the unified thought of "cars on the same track, books on the same text, and walks on the same road" that Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan have always insisted on.

Regarding Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan's persistence, Qiuye and the old people in the palace agreed without any hesitation. The reason was not the blind obedience brought about by absolute loyalty, but the extremely achievable plan of Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan. , Qiuye and the old people in the palace couldn't find any reason or reason to object, and it was only natural to agree.

Chapter 149 Architecture and Layout - Part Two

After the unanimous approval of the top management of Dawn City, the 'Dawn City Thought Unification Plan' compiled by Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan was officially launched.

This plan is not complicated to say, it is to make a set of official standards in terms of language, measurement, and basic moral laws to promote.

In other words, it is to modify Qin Shihuang's set and apply it to Shuguang City.

In terms of the official language system, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan used the official language of the Dragon Clan (Chinese with Qinqiang), and revised the new language system, which is the pronunciation of modern Chinese.

Although it has been revised, it is not very different from the official language of the dragon people, at most there are some differences in grammar and pronunciation, which will make it easy for hundreds of thousands of dragon people in the city to adapt.As for the other 10 ethnic refugees, I'm sorry, refugees, of course, have to follow local 'customs' and rules.

As for why the mainland lingua franca is not used, it is actually because the so-called mainland lingua franca is not as versatile as imagined.

The so-called lingua franca is only circulated in the aristocratic and professional circles of the mainland, as well as the relatively affluent business circles. The absolute majority of ordinary people actually do not understand the lingua franca.

Just like the civilians in Stantel, the spoken language in each region is different. Except for a small number of wealthy and powerful people who can master the common language family, ordinary civilians basically use regional dialects to communicate, and the literacy rate is even lower. It's outrageous.If you really encounter a language barrier, rich people can go to the businessman and hire someone who understands the common language to act as an interpreter, otherwise they can only be confused.

In other words, the so-called lingua franca of the mainland is a misnomer.

In this regard, whether it is out of some selfishness, or to get closer to the dragon people, and to appease the hundreds of thousands of dragon people who migrated normally in the city, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan insisted on using modern Chinese accents and traditional Chinese characters to become popular among the whole people. The official official language of education.

As for why the simplified characters are not directly used, it is also because the dragon people generally use traditional characters. In order not to be completely unique, they will be regarded as alternative and rejected, and for the hundreds of thousands of dragon people in the city, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan had to give in. Traditional Chinese characters are enabled.

The various textbooks for popular education for all are also new cultures that Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan have painstakingly integrated into the culture of the Celestial Dynasty and the benign cultures of the Dragon Race and the Human Race.

In addition to the superficial advantages of this kind of cultural content, the core is still the same as the Chinese culture. This is actually done for the sake of one day in the future, once people from their hometown can come over, they can quickly adapt to this cultural atmosphere. , thus integrating into the Dawn City system.

Of course, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan didn't say this clearly, and even if people from their hometown couldn't come over in the future, it didn't matter.It can also be regarded as a feat of spreading Chinese culture to another world.

As for how far this kind of cultural dissemination can go, it is not something Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan can determine. After all, this is a long-term policy. At least it needs the new generation of young people in Dawn City to grow up before it can be initially established.

However, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan couldn't judge whether they could see that day. Fortunately, with Qiu Ye and others present, there must be some accidents, and Qiu Ye and others could carry out these policies well.

The rest is up to God's will.

In addition to the establishment of language and culture, modern metric units of measurement were also selected for measurement. At the same time, various and complex measurement units in the world were compared, and the modern metric system was used as the basis for the new measurement. system.

As for the currency system of Aurora City, it uses the general-purpose physical currencies such as amethyst, gold, silver, and copper commonly used in the mainland as the base currency.However, these coins are all re-minted, and engraved with various landmark buildings in Dawn City, or directly on the head of the leader.

This is part of cultural export, and it is also a method commonly used by countries in the mainland.

In the international market, as long as the weight and purity of various precious metals are equal, the value of the currency is equal.

In particular, precious metals in this world can be used as high-quality enchanting materials. Even copper, the lowest grade of currency, is a fairly good smelting enchanting material.In other words, the currency on the market can basically be said to be a type of strategic material.

With this added value, these precious metal currencies have become extremely strong. Similarly, this is one of the main reasons why precious metal currencies are extremely liquid in this world.

In addition to these, this meeting also made a series of adjustments to various laws and regulations to make them more flexible and more in line with the current situation.

At the same time, it also formally established the construction direction and functional overview of the Army Division and the Air Force Division.

For example, the Department of Army officially spun off the Department of Public Security, and the Department of Public Security was officially brought under the control of the City Lord's Mansion, which belonged to the internal security patrol system of Dawn City.The Army Division, the Air Force Division, and the Navy Division and Staff Division that will inevitably appear in the future will officially become purely professional military organizations and will be directly under the city lord. The Dawn City Executive Division has no right to call directly.

At present, there are more than 5 professional soldiers in the Dawn City Army Division. Nangong Xiao will officially confer the flag on [-] of them as the First Army of Dawn City. Two-thirds, all adopt the new army training mode, that is, equipped with magic weapons, in other words, they are modern troops with magic technology version.

The second and third legions under construction are the same in terms of configuration, but the planned proportion of human race and dragon race is half.

According to the preliminary plan, Dawn City will only build three professional corps of 5 people, that is, about 15 serving soldiers.

Compared with the population of Shuguang City, this has reached a terrifying ratio of [-] to [-]. In the ancient times of the Celestial Dynasty, only the Great Qin Dynasty could achieve this ratio. In other periods, it can reach a ratio of [-] to [-]. It is already very remarkable. up.

And Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan also know that the ratio of recruits to the army is too high, but they also know that the total population of Shuguang City will not stop increasing. It's seven or eight, and there will be another wave of large-scale population influx.

By then, though, the influx will be more than just refugees.

As long as the people's livelihood in Dawn City is better than other cities in Stantel, it will definitely attract more poor people to emigrate.

As for the hard-to-leave homeland, let alone whether the people of Stantel have this concept, even if they do, once they can't survive, as long as they are not fools, they all know how to move towards a better life.

What's more, it seems that the war between the human race and the orcs will not stop in a short time. Even if it stops, Stantel is still in the stage of heavy damage and reconstruction. At this stage, the nobles are too busy to take care of themselves, so they don't care about the life and death of those pariahs.

But at this time, as long as the publicity is in place, it doesn't matter how many people Dawn City wants.

But before that, the existing population must be digested and a solid foundation laid.

After this closed-door meeting, the newly formed Shuguang City began to operate rapidly. Literacy education, ideological guidance, army building, fine-tuning of the administrative structure, on-the-job retraining of administrative personnel, etc. were all compact and orderly. pushing forward.

With the full assistance of the old people of King Zhao's Mansion, and the full support of Zhao Guo, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan made such a big stall in a short period of time. On the contrary, there were not many problems, and it even went smoothly.

More importantly, with the completion of the mass production of various modern industrial products in the Dawn City Industrial Zone, Dawn City's trade with the dragon race, the elves, and the central powers of the human race has also been fully launched.

With the help of several big chambers of commerce in King Zhao's Mansion, coupled with the explicit and covert support of the dragon-human royal family represented by Princess Changxi, the products of Dawn City basically entered the dragon-human market without hindrance.

And because the products of Dawn City itself are produced by large machines, the production capacity and cost are completely incomparable to traditional handicraft industries, so for civilian daily necessities, paper, textiles, glass products, etc., the products of Dawn City use extremely In a short period of time, it swept away the traditional handicraft market of the Dragon Race.

And Nangong Xiao and others have also made a budget. In the future, there will be a large-scale wave of unemployment of traditional handicraft craftsmen in the Dragon Clan mainland, and a bad one will cause turmoil in the Dragon Clan society.

In this regard, after seeing the horrible production capacity and the outrageously low price of Shuguang City's industrial products, Princess Changxi sent her cronies to ask for solutions, or to state her future concerns, which greatly made Shuguang The meaning of the city is to reduce production and increase pricing.

Regarding this, Nangong Xiao asked Qiu Ye to inform the cronies sent by Princess Chang Xi, and asked her to go back and report to Her Royal Highness, saying that Shuguang City was willing to sell production machinery so that the royal family could set up a factory inside the Dragon Clan to accommodate the future. Unemployed craftsmen who may appear on a large scale, if they can no longer be resettled, those unemployed workers who will become hidden dangers will be sent to Dawn City, and Dawn City can provide relocation fees and make proper resettlement.

Regarding Nangong Xiao's rhetoric, Qiuye was surprised, and also felt that His Royal Highness's move was wonderful.

The factory in Dawn City was able to operate because of Nangong Xiao's order to let the magician go off in person, and at the same time release the training materials, so as to train qualified industrial magicians, so that the equipment in the industrial zone can gradually operate.

Just letting the magician go off in person is not something that Princess Chang Xi can easily do.

Qiu Ye also didn't think that Princess Chang Xi and Tian Zi Hong behind her were willing to send the magicians of the Royal Legion to the lower levels.Even if you are willing, it is doomed that the quantity is not large, and a small quantity means that it cannot be scaled up in a short time.A factory that does not have a large scale must be a drop in the bucket for the large-scale unemployment that will appear in the future.

Chapter 150 Architecture and Layout - Part Two

As for the recruitment of magicians within the empire, that is even more impossible, because generally the magicians who have graduated from aristocratic schools are basically people who belong to them.The overall structure of the dragon clan is "subordinates are not your subordinates", that is to say, Tianzihong's subordinates are those ministers and nobles, but the subordinates of those ministers and nobles have nothing to do with Tianzihong, it is difficult for Tianzihong to make a leap mobilized.

So apart from the royal family delegating their own magic troops, the only way left is to re-train industrial magicians.

However, the key information for cultivating industrial magicians is in the hands of His Royal Highness, and the royal family will have to sacrifice their flesh at that time.

This is not bad. With His Royal Highness's temperament, the manufacturing process of the production machinery will definitely not be sold. In other words, even if the dragon-human royal family launches a vigorous industrial revolution in the future, they will definitely rely on Dawn City for production equipment. And Dawn City can also make a lot of money from the more profitable magic industry equipment.

Of course, this is not the key point. The key point is that no matter how hard Tianzihong develops the magic industry, he is doomed to be unable to take on a large number of unemployed people in a short period of time. At that time, he will definitely find a way to resettle these unemployed people and is willing to pay for the relocation. Isn't Shuguang City the most ideal place to resettle?

By that time, the population of Dawn City's dragon people will not be a problem at all.More importantly, this kind of unemployed population is basically a 'high-quality' population with a certain skill, which is much stronger than the agricultural population.

What's more, this way can also reduce the excessive dependence on Zhao's population.After all, Zhao State itself is a complete country, so we can't draw people from Zhao State unrestrainedly.

What's more, Qiuye also gradually discovered that His Royal Highness more or less intended to break away from Zhao's system and form a family of his own.

At first, Qiuye still couldn't understand this point, because it was as if her highness would not go back to inherit the kingship in the future.However, with a deeper understanding of the group of qualified persons, Qiu Ye finally understood.

This is the two-handed plan of His Royal Highness.

Once His Royal Highness and Princess Xuan really can't come back in the future, the nature of Dawn City will change completely.

Although she Nangong Qiuye bears a Nangong surname, she is not the real heir of the Nangong family after all, and is just a concubine. Under normal circumstances, she does not have the orthodox inheritance right.

If Dawn City is too much associated with Zhao State, it is tantamount to being a part of Zhao State, at least it can be considered secretly. At that time, her Qiuye's legal rule over Dawn City will be questioned.

Even if my lord didn't have such thoughts, he still couldn't stand up to Princess Chang Xi's special status.

Qiu Ye knew that the marriage contract between Princess Changxi and His Royal Highness was basically decided by default, and it was just a matter of finding a suitable time to make it official.

If His Royal Highness really can't come back at that time, then once Shuguang City becomes an extension of Zhao Kingdom, in a certain sense, Princess Changxi, who is the official wife, has the right to intervene.

After all, Princess Changxi represented the royal family, if she really wanted to forcibly intervene in the affairs of Dawn City, as long as she was able to live in the name, even the emperor himself might not be able to stop her.At that time, whether Dawn City can continue to develop according to His Royal Highness's plan will become unknown.

For this reason, Shuguang City must gradually break away from the Zhao State system, and even gradually break away from the Dragon Clan system, so as to form its own faction.

At that time, as a concubine, with the prestige and power of the monarch and her father, she will be able to formally control Shuguang City in terms of legal principles and real power, so that she can carry out the will of her highness to the end.

Even His Royal Highness easily accepted the canonization of King Stantel, and it is likely to be prepared for the day that may appear in the future.After all, the status of the first-class Earl of Stentel has nothing to do with the dragon people. It can be passed on to her at the right time, Qiu Ye, or the heirs of her and her highness. At that time, Dawn City and the dragon people can be completely separated. Relationship.

At this point, the royal faction represented by Princess Chang Xi can no longer interfere in the affairs of Shuguang City in name and legal principle, because the reason why Shuguang City was separated from Xia Empire and Zhao Guozhong is that His Highness specially prepared for her by Qiu Ye. No matter how ugly Princess Changxi and Tianzihong's diet is, they dare not blatantly embezzle this allocated "inheritance", otherwise it will definitely arouse the public indignation of the big nobles.

As for the successor of the Zhao Kingdom, Princess Changxi, it would be even better if she could have an heir, which would completely appease the royal faction, so that the royal family could completely feel at ease with the King Zhao faction, and allow the royal faction to act out of reason and interests in the future. Shangdu gave Zhao Wang a faction to take care of him, and also gave Shuguang City a certain amount of protection.

In this way, Dawn City can not only maintain its independent nature, but also maintain multiple ambiguous ties with Xia Empire, Zhao Kingdom, and Stentel Kingdom. As long as she will not destroy this good multilateral relationship in the future relationship, then Dawn City will be able to continue to survive independently in the slit of the great power game.

In some senses, this arrangement serves multiple purposes.

Of course, all of this is based on the premise that neither His Royal Highness nor Princess Xuan can come back.And Qiuye didn't think that His Royal Highness would not come back from the beginning to the end.However, His Royal Highness's character of counting defeat first and then victory in adversity also determines the future arrangements of Dawn City...

While Nangong Xiao and others were constantly improving the structure and future layout of Dawn City, another large-scale war broke out in the capital of Stantel, and the battle report and battlefield image crystals of this war were also transmitted through expensive space. The method was sent to Nangong Xiao immediately.

According to the common calendar in the mainland, in the afternoon of late September in 3114, Nangong Xiao called all the high-level officials of Dawn City to watch the content of this image crystal in the plenary conference room of the administrative building.

Because the content of this image crystal involves the use of magic weapons on the battlefield, King Stantel used his clumsy tactical arrangements to demonstrate the cruelty of modern warfare on this foreign continent.

Nangong Xiao must make the old people of Prince Zhao's Mansion face up to the great military changes brought about by magic weapons.At the same time, it also allows members of the Holy Black Cat Knights to feel the danger of magic weapons more intuitively.

There are dozens of people sitting densely in the conference room now, except for all the members of the Holy Black Cat Knights and the newcomers Sayuri and Xiaoji, the others are all old people from Prince Zhao's Mansion.

These people were a little stunned looking at the scene on the screen that could be called a unilateral massacre.

The content of the images on the screen is simple to say the least. The first scene is a scene shot by the data collectors of Dawn City on a tower. Five orc legions and nearly 20 people stormed the satellite city of the capital of Stentel. war.

In this battle, King Stantel personally supervised the battle, with 150 new troops equipped with magic rifles and 20 [-]-caliber heavy artillery, relying on the city wall to fight against [-] orc siege troops.

At the beginning of the war, King Stantel used the simplest tactic, that is, covering strikes with unlimited artillery. Relying on the terrifying range and power of 150 heavy artillery, he forced the orcs' front, middle, and rear tiers of formation to almost completely sexual defeat.

The magic cannon can fire live ammunition, which means that the shaman purification barrier of the orc army can't stop the shelling, and the speed of the shells is too fast, so that the orc magician can't destroy it like the flying stone of the trebuchet. In this way, the orc formation under the dense formation is basically equivalent to a fixed artillery target, and it is rare for a single shell to take away the lives of dozens or hundreds of orc soldiers.

And the live ammunition shell has a more insidious aspect, that is, the damage caused by the shrapnel is extremely large. Basically, the orc infantry who are splashed by the shrapnel are either killed or injured.So in addition to the dozens or hundreds of orc soldiers who died directly from the shell explosion, there were also orc soldiers who were shot and injured by shrapnel.After all, these orcs don't understand the basic operation of lying down and dodging when the shells come.

Because of this, just relying on the covering strike of artillery, the orc army suffered heavy casualties in a short period of time, and there were even some signs that the army could not be formed.

This is because Nangong Xiao didn't sell the more lethal cluster ammunition to King Stantel, otherwise the artillery massacre of the orcs would be even more exaggerated.

It's just that the continuous unlimited coverage bombardment didn't waste much time, and the 20 orc army was directly defeated with countless casualties.
