Chapter 75 New City Effect
It has been two months since Earl Summer took out the overall plan of Bangta City in front of Xu Yi, but in fact the progress in this regard has been positive and slow.
One is because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Amley Chamber of Commerce, which are mainly responsible for the current first phase of the project, were unable to leave some time ago, and the other is because the overall planning project encountered difficulties from the very beginning.
Included in the first phase of the renovation project decided by Xu Yi and Earl Satsuma after consultation, in addition to those two villages, there were also several private territories of nobles.
In comparison, although there are more villagers in those two villages, they are very easy to deal with.
Xu Yi went over with the order of the City Lord's Mansion, and no one from the two villages raised any objections. No matter what Xu Yi said, they obeyed obediently.
What really troubled both Xu Yi and President Cruise was the small aristocratic territories.
For the nobles on the Sainz Continent, the private territory is their own, and even His Majesty the King cannot dispose of them at will, so Xu Yi wants to do something with these noble territories outside Bangta City, he must get these nobles their consent.
The problem is that except for two more enlightened nobles who agreed to the Amri Chamber of Commerce to build construction on his territory, the remaining nobles simply do not understand what this so-called overall renovation project of Bangta City is all about. Naturally would not agree.
So the project was delayed because of these stubborn nobles, and progress was extremely slow.
Earl Summer was very dissatisfied with this situation. After asking Xu Yi and President Cruise the reason, he held this banquet specially, not only gathering all the nobles in Bangta City, but also all the chambers of commerce. concentrated.
In addition to wanting to convince the stubborn nobles to understand the significance of the Bangta City renovation project, it also means raising funds from more chambers of commerce.
After finishing the opening remarks, Earl Summer quickly entered the topic and explained the ideas in the planning book that Xu Yi had read before in detail.
Everyone in the audience was a little confused at first. However, as Earl Summer gradually explained in depth, he gradually revealed a thoughtful look.
It should be said that the idea of Count Summer for the overall transformation of Bonta City is very good.
Due to the rise of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the current Bangta City has led to the emergence of many chambers of commerce factories. Also because of the various magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the production efficiency of the other major chambers of commerce has been greatly improved, and these chambers of commerce have also further developed and grown.
As a result, numerous new factories have been opened in the current Bangta City, creating countless employment opportunities, and thus attracting a large number of people, making the originally quiet Bangta City extremely prosperous and lively.
But this also brings huge problems.
Bangta City was originally a small town with a population of less than 50,000. Regardless of the livelihood of the city and the people, it was underdeveloped in all aspects. Now there are suddenly so many factories and so many people. It's like a disaster for this small town.
If nothing else, the amount of feces shipped out in Bangta City is several times more than before, which has caused great pressure on Bangta City's administration.
If this continues, Bangta City will sooner or later be crushed by these pressures.
"Everyone, I think no one wants to live in a chaotic and disorganized city. So in order to change the current situation. After careful consideration, I decided to carry out the overall transformation of Bangta City."
Having said this, Earl Summer paused for a while, looked around, and saw that everyone in the audience showed a thoughtful expression, then nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "Of course. There is no way to transform it, and Bangta City is indeed too small to bear so many people, so my goal is outside the city. As for how to transform outside the city, we need to listen to experts in this area, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce President Xu Yi's thoughts."
Xu Yi walked onto the stage with a smile under everyone's gaze. Taking over the seat of Earl Samo, he bowed slightly to the people below, and said with a smile: "The city master has exaggerated me. I am not an expert in this field, but I have some relevant experience when I was developing the Valley of the Rain. That's it."
Hearing Xu Yi mention the Falling Rain Valley, everyone in the audience whispered.
After the opening of the Luoyu Highway, many people would take a horse-drawn carriage on the Luoyu Highway just out of curiosity. Naturally, many people went to the Luoyu Valley.
Then everyone discovered that Luoyu Valley, which was originally extremely barren and almost useless, has now become a very beautiful and spectacular place after the continuous development and construction of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
After seeing the beautiful factory area and living area in Luoyu Valley, many people will be as amazed as President Pompeii.
Therefore, not many people were surprised when they learned that Earl Summer had handed over the overall renovation project of Bangta City to Xu Yilai.
"First, let me show you a few paintings."
Following Xu Yi's gesture again, the two servants of the City Lord's Mansion came up with a few picture scrolls and a shelf in their hands, and then unfolded the pictures on the shelf one by one.
Everyone's eyes fell on the scroll, and they saw a beautiful landscape.
In the middle picture, the protagonist is a river, but this river is different from the river in everyone's impression.
The two sides of the river are not piled up with sediment, but are blocked by very neat and beautiful embankments made of something unknown.
The river water under the embankment is clear and the blue waves are rippling, and all kinds of trees, flowers and plants are planted on both sides of the embankment.
On both sides of the river bank there is a concrete road that is not particularly spacious, but is extremely flat. Under the cover of greenery, there are several men and women on the concrete road, old and young, walking by the river, blowing the cool breeze.
On the side of the road are several flat lawns, and many children are running back and forth on the lawn, with cheerful smiles on their faces.
Just seeing this picture, everyone in the audience couldn't help but be amazed.
If there is a river that can become such a neat and clean appearance, then I must be willing to go for a walk by the river at dusk.
"President Xu, are you putting these paintings out now, are you trying to tell us that the river on this painting is the river outside Bangta City now?" Someone in the audience couldn't help but shout. asked.
"Yes, the river in this painting is the Sandy River after transformation. What do you think?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
"Good is good. But how could the Sandy River be what it looks like in your picture?"
"That's right, as long as the Sandy River doesn't flood every year, how can it be so beautiful."
"President Xu, you are completely fantasizing. It is impossible to achieve."
"Yup……"
...
Seeing everyone in the audience agree, Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Who said it's impossible? If you don't believe me, ask President Cruise what the Sandy River looks like in the upper reaches of the Forest of Rain."
Everyone looked at Moon Cruise, the chairman of the Amli Chamber of Commerce who was sipping red wine.
Cruise put down his glass and showed a smug smile to everyone.
"President Xu is right, the Sandy River doesn't look very good now, but it is not difficult to change it into what it looks like on this painting. Because for more than a year, our Amley Chamber of Commerce has been The renovation of the embankment on the upper Sandy River in the northwest of Rainforest has already begun to bear fruit. Although it is not as beautiful as it is in this painting, it is not far off.”
"Well, I went to the orc tribe in the Black Rice Wasteland some time ago. On the way, I passed the upper reaches of the Sandy River, but I found that the Sandy River, which was about to be killed, has changed completely, just like this picture. The painting is almost as good-looking. I just saw some people working on the embankment, but I didn't expect it to be workers from the Amley Chamber of Commerce."
Everyone turned their heads to look, and found that the person who said this was Reelsa, the president of the Renekton Chamber of Commerce, which specialized in selling business to the orcs in the city.
He is because of the business of the Chamber of Commerce. Occasionally make a personal trip to the orc tribe, passing the upper Sandy River on the way.
Since he said so, it seems that this matter should be true.
Seeing the change in the expressions of everyone in the audience, Xu Yi clapped his hands and drew everyone's attention back. He pointed to another painting and said, "Everyone, look at this painting again. I think everyone should see it. This is a picture from a high-altitude perspective. Attention everyone. There is a city on the right, which represents the city of Bangta where we are now. On the left is Sang Qi, where our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is currently located. Dayton Manor. As for these wide white lines crisscrossed in this painting, I think everyone should have guessed that they all represent roads."
Even if he had already guessed it, he heard Xu Yi say it at this moment. Everyone was still surprised.
"President Xu, so many roads are all roads? Isn't it?" A president of a small chamber of commerce in the audience couldn't help but said. "I can understand that your new flying merchants will build a road from Bangta City to Thornton Manor, but building so many useless roads is not necessary, right?"
"Useless?" Xu Yi smiled and waved his hand. "No, there are no useless roads in this world. The reason why I marked so many roads on this map is to let you know that I really intend to do this, and also commissioned Amley The Chamber of Commerce will conduct on-site inspections of the roads that these roads need to pass through, and as long as there are no problems with the inspection results, construction of these roads will begin at the same time.”
"That's right. Our Amri Chamber of Commerce is very professional in building roads. Since President Xu has asked us, we will definitely repair these roads." President Cruise nodded in response. "In addition, I can also remind everyone here that if anyone here is interested in repairing the road, you can come to me to discuss it at any time."
Xu Yi laughed: "President Cruise, I just want you to confirm the facts I just said, but I didn't let you take the opportunity to advertise."
Everyone in the audience couldn't help but smile.
"Of course, the construction of the road is not something that President Cruise and I can decide. It also needs everyone's support."
Hearing Xu Yi's words, the merchants in the audience all looked at the nobles on the other side.
Everyone knew in their hearts that Xu Yi was talking about those stubborn nobles.
At this moment, a cold snort suddenly sounded in the crowd of nobles.
"Humph! President Xu can really talk to himself, are you the one who owns Bangta City?"
