  Chapter 1227 Recent Situation of Shacheng

On the afternoon of August 9th, the seventh year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao and Su Yan finally brought 200 fifth-tier court guards to the gate of the northeast city of Shacheng. He and Su Yan were astonished.

Of course, there is a fifth-tier palace guard guard, so Qu Mao and Su Yan naturally don’t need to line up slowly to enter the sand city. The officer came to Qu Mao and Su Yan, and personally led Qu Mao and Su Yan to jump into Shacheng.

After passing through the northeast gate of Shacheng, Qu Mao and Su Yan found that not only was there a long queue in the direction of entering Shacheng, but also the residents of Shacheng who passed through the northeast gate and exited Shacheng also formed a long queue. From a distance, the length of the queue Not less than 500 meters.

   You must know that the city wall of Shacheng is only 1.5 kilometers long, so Qu Mao frowned, and said to Su Yan: "Su Yan, it seems that the city wall of Shacheng has become the main culprit that hinders the traffic inside and outside of Shacheng."

  Su Yan nodded, and said: "My lord, Shacheng itself is not big, and the side of the city wall is only 1.5 kilometers long. When it was first built, it was not considered that Shacheng would gather so many people.

   Along the way, there is almost no arable land within a 10-kilometer radius around Shacheng. It is better to set the part of Shacheng protected by the city wall as a complete government area, or simply remove the city wall.

Now it is completely different from the original intention when Shacheng was built. At first, Shacheng belonged to the border, and it was an independent territory that was just seized, but now Shacheng is already in the hinterland of independent territories in the Eastern Continent, and the Marquis of Gillette has also become a part of the Tassel Empire. As a province, the military significance of Shacheng continuing to maintain the city wall is not great. "

   Qu Mao nodded and said, "Let's talk when we see the city lord."

After the two entered the sand city, the sand city was also bustling with pedestrians, and there was no way for the horses to continue riding, so Qu Mao and Su Yan handed over the horses to the fifth-level palace guards, and a large number of fifth-level palace guards were also guarding the sand city. After receiving them, they entered the barracks to rest. Only 10 fifth-rank palace guards accompanied Qu Mao and Su Yan on foot to protect Qu Mao and Su Yan.

   Fortunately, the Shacheng City Lord's Mansion is less than 1 kilometer away from the northeastern gate of Shacheng. After Qu Mao and Su Yan arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, they immediately ordered the soldiers of the Shacheng Guards to go to the City Hall to call back the Shacheng City Lord.

  When Shacheng City Lord rushed back to the City Lord's Mansion panting, Qu Mao and Su Yan had already had tea in the City Lord's Mansion.

  Seeing the Shacheng City Lord rushing back, Qu Mao gently put the teacup on the tea table aside, and asked: "How is the situation in Shacheng now?

  When I first entered the city, I found it extremely inconvenient to get in and out of the city. There were long lines of no less than 500 meters in both directions, which would affect the development of Shacheng. "

  The Lord of Shacheng replied respectfully: "My lord, since the "Island of Yi Weekly" publicized the coal found in the southeast of Shacheng in the second half of Tianxuan Six Years, Shacheng has become lively.

  After all, the application of coal and the industrial chain derived from coal were proposed by you personally, so entrepreneurs and businessmen flock to Shacheng.

Originally, there were about 50,000 permanent residents and the military in Shacheng City, but now there are no less than 200,000 people living in the city, including iron and steel merchants, coal merchants, coal mine owners, metal mine owners, miners associations, and entrepreneurs. people.

   Not only that, the cultivated land around Shacheng is also generally purchased by businessmen and entrepreneurs from all over the place to build metallurgical factories, coking factories, etc., as well as a large number of shops and residences.

A few days ago, my subordinates made special statistics that 890,000 residents have gathered in Shacheng and within an 8-kilometer radius outside the city wall of Shacheng, and a large number of residents flock to the surrounding area of ​​Shacheng every day, preparing to enter the coal mine or enter the metal mineral smelting enterprise Workers, subordinates are having a headache for this matter.

  At the beginning of this year, there were rumors that the Marquis of Gillette and Shacheng would be merged into the Tassel Empire and become the Gillette Province of the Tassel Empire. His subordinates submitted an application to the Gillette Province to demolish the city wall of Shacheng, but it has not yet been approved.

  The city wall is a military facility after all, and the subordinates dare not act without orders. Now that the entrance and exit of the city are blocked, the subordinates are also very anxious. "

  Su Yan sighed, and said: "Demolish it, demolish all the walls of Shacheng, and see if there is a need to build a new city wall within the further range of Shacheng..."

Qu Mao waved his hand and interjected: "Su Yan, there is no need to continue to build the city wall of the sand city. Just assign the guard soldiers of the original sand city guard force to patrol the fringe areas in small groups. You can call some of the original residents. Just form a militia unit to ensure the law and order around Shacheng.”

  The Lord of Shacheng nodded repeatedly, and said: "Yes, my lord! Yes, Your Majesty, your subordinates will follow suit later.

Today, in the southeast, south, southwest, and eastern regions of Shacheng, a total of 8 coal mines that can be directly mined have been discovered. In addition, there are some coal mines that are relatively difficult to mine. Eight coal mines that can be directly mined are already under intense mining, and each coal mine has gathered at least 5,000 coal mining workers, and their family members have no less than 20,000 people.

  In the desert in the northwest and west of Shacheng, 3 iron mines and 2 copper mines were discovered, and they are currently being mined urgently. The number of miners gathered is only much more than that of coal mines.

Various businessmen are building metal smelting enterprises around Shacheng. There are 37 factories, large and small, that extract metals from metal ores. More than ten thousand.

In the northeast and north of Shacheng, because it is close to the former Jiliehou King City, a large number of residential buildings have been built. Hundreds of thousands of people gather in Shacheng and its surrounding areas, so there are many enterprises that provide services for residents. These are established by local residents. mostly.

For the management of this kind of city where a large number of residents gather, my subordinates are really powerless, so I have the audacity to apply to you, my lord, among the college graduates who graduated in the spring of the eighth year of Tianxuan, please allow my subordinates to recruit some college graduates to take up positions in Shacheng. Administrative work. "

Qu Mao nodded, and said: "This is really necessary. You can not only apply by yourself, but also organize large enterprises in Shacheng to go to the Holy Land to participate in the double selection meeting for university graduates at the end of the seventh year of Tianxuan. It's too late. I'm afraid the university will The graduates will be assigned internally by the core heroes left behind in the Holy Land.

  Shacheng can be used as a template of a modern industrial city to promote and publicize throughout the Yigong territory. "

  The Lord of Shacheng was overjoyed, and said repeatedly: "Thank you for your support! Thank you, Your Majesty, for your support!

  It's already August now, and the subordinates immediately contacted powerful companies to prepare to participate in the Holy Land's double selection meeting for college graduates. "
