Chapter 104: Preparing to Return to Beijing

The newly built residential area, known to the residents of Astor City as the New Residence of the West City, has now begun to be sold to the public. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info The western wall of Astor City has been extended to the west of the Zhang and Bai families in the western suburbs, which means that the Zhang and Bai families returned to Astor City again, not relocated, but directly divided into the area of Astor City.

In this way, the area of Astor City has expanded several times.

The expanded urban planning is more atmospheric and reasonable, the streets are more spacious, and the various functions of the city are more concentrated and prominent. Many adventurers who have not returned to Astor City for a long time have lost their way after entering Astor City, they are stunned by the great changes in Astor City, and they have also become the laughing stock of those old friends who have been living in Astor City.

The residents and businesses affected by the late-night fighting between the two groups and the two fires that followed were compensated by the assets of the Queens and the Hunter family, and some chose to buy houses in the western suburbs and settle down.

On the ruins of the fierce battle in the middle of the night, a magnificent mansion was newly built, a two-entry mansion. In the front is the place where the lord of the castle works, and in the back is where the lord lives and rests.

As a result, the White City Lord did not live in, but let Lord Sun live in. Therefore, the people of Astor City call it "Lord Mansion", and few people call it City Lord's Mansion.

In front of the castle lord's mansion is a magnificent square, which is gradually becoming known as a place for citizens to enjoy leisure activities. In the center of the square is a sculpture based on the old cow that Sun Xiang brought back from the valley.

In the sculpture, the horns of the old cow are moving forward, struggling to move forward, which has a sense of strength and progress.

Sun Xiang personally inscribed the inscription called "Pioneer Cow", and wrote on the pedestal of the sculpture "diligent, hard-working, fearless of difficulties, courageously moving forward" four sentences.

Sun Xiang said that these four sentences are the essence of Astor City.

The shape of this pioneer cow was built by Sun Xiang based on a sculpture in a financial center called Wall Street in China, where he had been there when he traveled to the world, and was deeply impressed by the sculpture, so he moved here directly.

The appearance of the pioneer cow immediately attracted a round of applause in Astor City, especially when I heard that it was formulated and inscribed by Lord Sun himself, which immediately made Lord Sun's prestige reach its peak. People's perception of Lord Sun also changed one hundred and twenty degrees immediately, and they believed that Lord Sun was the person who really understood Astor City, and also the person who really understood the history of Astor City, and was the person who intuitively showed the essence of Astor City to people for the first time.

Some natives of Astor City even went straight to the pioneer cow to worship and burst into tears.

As a result, the Pioneer Ox became the symbol of the city of Aster, and every household paid tribute to a miniature version of the Pioneer Ox, believing that it would bring them luck and blessings.

In the end, Lord Sun conformed to the public opinion and directly announced that the Pioneer Cow would be the mascot of Astor City in the future, and it would be exclusive to Astor City. Thus, for the first time, a city mascot appeared in the human cities of the Tetulai Empire and even the entire continent. This makes the people of Astor City very proud.

The square where the pioneer cow is located is also called the pioneer cow square by the people of Astor City.

There is also a small episode here, one day, four small old cows are led to the sculpture of the pioneer cow. As a result, seeing his majestic image, the old cow was so happy that he screamed "moo", circled around the sculpture, and finally sprinkled a soak of urine on the pedestal of the sculpture to swear sovereignty.

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry at Lao Niu's actions, but no one dared to offend Lao Niu, everyone knew that this old cow dared to eat the owner of the imperial search warrant, and the background was big.

The happy old cow was not finished, and the next day he brought his wife with his family, and he wanted his wife to share this glory with him. In the end, the whole family discussed that they wanted to settle down here, and they were so frightened that they coaxed and deceived the old cow and his wife to take him away.

This episode adds to the vitality of the sculpture.

In the past month, the first thing they did was to buy a house in the western suburbs and leave Astor City to pick up their families.

They cherish their work so much that they have decided to settle in the city of Astor.

And with the continuous influx of those "fans", there are also some people who buy houses in the new home of the West Side, ready to settle down in Astor City completely.

As those out-of-towners bought properties in their new homes on the West Side, the population of Astor City began to pick up.

The rebound in population numbers did not make the people of Astor City nervous. Because the change in the garrison gives people a stronger sense of security.

At Chu Sen's call, many other mercenaries or some adventurers who had lived here voluntarily chose to join the garrison, and the number of garrisons increased rapidly from 1,200 to 1,500.

If it weren't for the current feeding capacity of Astor City, it is estimated that the number of garrisons would have increased.

The size of the garrison in the southeast corner remained unchanged, and a new garrison garrison appeared in the northeast corner. This is because the garrison of Astor City has changed from 500 to 1,500, far exceeding the standard of ordinary cities in the Empire, and the same as the standard of the capital cities of the Empire.

The two garrisons, known as the Southern Army and the Northern Army, were once again defending the city of Aster. The leaders of the two armies were Chu Sen and Zhang Jinrui.

As for the future development of Astor City, people are not worried, because the industries of the Bai Zhang family have also surfaced.

The people of Astor City finally knew that the Bai and Zhang families really produced wine in the western suburbs, and Lord Sun did not lie at the beginning. It's just that Lord Sun concealed that they could still produce "porcelain", and bottles made of this "porcelain" could well ensure the storage and transportation of wine. It breaks the limitations of liquor sales in the traditional sense. The most important thing is that whether it is wine or porcelain, it is the top commodity in the empire and even on the mainland, and those magnates in the capital have gone crazy about it.

The people of Astor City were very proud to hear this, so the Chengxi Mansion of the Zhang family and the Bai family was full of people, and as long as they could get in touch with each other, they would come to visit them in order to find opportunities for cooperation. And the Bai and Zhang families did give them some opportunities, so that they all had new sources of income.

Subsequently, the long-awaited flagship stores of Bai and Zhang finally opened in Astor City, and the grand opening ceremony once again became the talk of the people of Astor City, and the high-quality wine and porcelain products made the people of Astor City flock to it, and there were long queues here every day.

In particular, the treasure of the two shops, the "Dragon Knight" series, is placed high in a prominent position in the shop for people to visit. A set of three bottles of Dragon Knight was priced at five million gold coins, which was completely shocking.

Throughout the history of Astor City, no item has ever been able to fetch such a high price. The people of Astor City are proud again, and they feel that their city has also been upgraded by the presence of the Dragon Knight.

It is said that the real Dragon Knight series only bought a million sets. And these two sets are the first products produced by the two factories, and the others have been sent to the capital, and only these two sets are left in the two factories, so the symbolic significance is very large.

Soon the liquor produced by the White family dominated the market in Astor City, and the same was true in several adventurer towns such as Baleno City and Orar Town. Because in addition to high-end wine, the Bai family also sells low-end wine. These two wines are not packaged in fine porcelain bottles, they are packaged in traditional ways, and the price is basically the same as other wines, but the quality is much higher. Now those adventurers in the vicinity are embarrassed to take it out and share it with others if they don't have the Bai family's wine in their wine bags.

For the first force he established, Sun Xiang was very attentive.

In addition to the reconstruction of the city, Sun Xiang personally handled it, and Sun Xiang attached more importance to the defense of Astor City. He redesigned the construction of the city walls, which made the walls more defensible again.

Sun Xiang also introduced some representative heavy weapons of the Cold Weapon Era on the Shenzhou Continent to Chu Sen and Zhang Jinrui, and asked them to arrange for people to quietly make them for defending the city. The large-scale crossbow machine used to defend the city, the extremely powerful catapult, and the rolling wood and stone with a huge killing area made Chu Sen and Zhang Jinrui stunned. You must know that these things can be used by anyone who has the strength to do it, and it will mean that the whole of Astor City will be able to fight. This completely changed the idea that the defense of the city on the continent was only the battle of those warriors. At that time, the city of Astor will not have a garrison of more than 2,000 people, but a garrison of hundreds of thousands.

In particular, after Sun Xiang proposed that the fixed residents should implement the reserve system, and gave some suggestions for the establishment of a reserve, the two of them worshiped Sun Xiang and opened their minds.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't destroy the environment here and his own time was precious, Sun Xiang would even have to teach them the hot weapon.

For the rest of the time, Sun Xiang stayed with the injured Zhang Xiaoling.

That time, Zhang Xiaoling risked her life to block the assassin's attack for Sun Xiang, which completely warmed up the relationship between the two.
