Song Taiping assigned the general technical director of the eleven cities, the doctors of Zhitian Pavilion have not yet arrived, and various preparation instructions have been issued, hundreds of tons of limestone, clay, and iron ore powder are being transported to the construction sites of various cities, thousands of tons of seaside sand and gravel are dug up and transported from the seaside of the border Wufu to the construction sites of various cities, and a large number of square wood, metal ores, and quartz are also gathering in major cities, and the weeds and shrubs near the construction sites of each city have been cleared.

As soon as the doctors of Zhitiange arrived at the designated place for the construction of the city, they assembled the generator sets built by Song Taiping in the border five provinces in the outer security zone, and began to build simple steel yards, glass yards, cement yards, latex paint and other building materials yards, and issued clear construction requirements to the craftsmen who built them. It is also necessary to carry huge rocks by trucks to build artificial small hills hundreds of meters high, cover them with soil, plant trees, and isolate them with barbed wire at the edges of these small hills, leaving only a stone road to the top of the mountain, and build a three-layer concrete and steel plate residential and combat buildings on the top of the mountain, surrounded by rotatable base-type heavy artillery batteries.

On the first day, the craftsmen and people who participated in the construction of the new city were very curious to look at this unique city construction, in other large towns, the construction of the city wall and arrow tower, digging the moat, and this new city construction cost is astronomical is very strange, first excavated 150 pits one kilometer square and twenty meters deep, those steel yards produced a piece of rebar steel mesh of different sizes covered those gray new things called cement, but in a few hours it became as hard as steel, If it weren't for the extraordinarily exaggerated renderings of the fairyland-like new city posted outside the venue, these craftsmen and folk men would have thought that they had been tricked into building the emperor's tomb, which was guarded not only by sergeants with rifles, but also by a large number of cultivators, and the defense was as tight as that of an imperial palace.

The doctors who served as the commander-in-chief checked the construction progress and quality everywhere in the construction site, and redid the unqualified ones mercilessly, and at the end of the evening, except for the various building materials workshops operated by the peripheral disciples of the Zhitian Pavilion and the Terran Alliance, they lit torches at night and continued to make all kinds of building materials, and the hired craftsmen and people were called together by the doctors, and the doctors directly took out the excerpts of Song Taiping's speeches and said loudly to these craftsmen and people: "

Folks, some people may think that the simulation of the new city after completion is too exaggerated to be built! I can be very responsible to the head of the person to guarantee, after the completion of the new city will be more spectacular, more beautiful than the simulation, look at the shovel that we now use to dig the ground, the two-wheeled cart used to transport goods, and the rifles in the hands of the soldiers responsible for the protection of the city, are all from the hand of the prince Song Taiping, the overall planning and construction of the city is also from the prince's generosity, to be honest, even if I have read poetry and books for decades, I have received seven days of systematic training from the prince, In order to be able to preside over the construction of this city with drawings and learning materials!

Folks, some people may know that the total investment of these eleven cities has reached 5 billion taels of silver, and the average cost of a city is 450 million taels of silver, such a huge investment, Song Taiping Prince only accounted for 50% of the investment in technology, and the joint princess of Tuob Xiu'e invested 500 million taels of silver, which is the largest investor deservedly. Song Taiping Prince has given priority to the new city resident quota to the surrounding people who participate in the construction of the new city for the first time, folks, you have obtained the right to live in the new city given by Song Taiping for yourself and your immediate family within three generations, you are building for your own home! What to do, everyone's hearts are open, so I don't need to say more! In the construction I will ask everyone with high standards, don't think that I am aimed at which folks, I am in the gate for our common home, once out of the tofu slag project, the brunt is that we and our families are harmed, everyone says is not this reason! ”

Suddenly, the craftsmen and people present exploded the pot, chattering and noisy, some shouted to bring their brothers to work together, and some knelt down to thank Song Taiping (after all, the food at noon was still good, each person shared a piece of meat, this night was over, and dinner was prepared, such a good thing was unprecedented in the Dayan Empire, and the two successive bloody days in Kaiping City made the three brothers of the Song family, especially Song Taiping, the legendary deeds of the prince side by side, widely spread among the people, It has become a positive teaching material for families to educate their children), some people asked the doctor who gave the lecture what taxes the residents of the new city had to pay, and some men who had read the book asked whether the yamen of the new town still needed staff.

The popularity of the scene was really said by Song Taiping, and the erudite people of Zhitian Pavilion at the scene slapped the shocking wood on the table, and shouted: "Fellow villagers, be quiet, according to the introduction of the prince Song Taiping, the king of the word side by side, in each newly built city is independent of the administrative jurisdiction of the Dayan Empire, and each city independently bears the overall tax, and will not be apportioned to each city resident, and there is a business tax in each city that is only collected from the business merchants, and the business tax of each city will be the economic source of the operation of each city. Residents of the cities either participate in the election and are elected as administrators of their cities, or they work in various businesses or public institutions, and receive monthly remuneration, while the unemployed vagrants in each city can only receive three months' living allowance, and the source of living funds after that can only be found on their own.

Each city has implemented a perfect legal system and welfare system, the legal system and welfare system will be described in detail in the cram school of urban residents, this new city will have electric lights, battery cars, bathrooms that are different from the thatched houses that everyone usually uses, running water and countless new gadgets, these will be told in the cram school of urban residents, here I just briefly introduce the city's welfare system has free comprehensive medical care, retirement pension policy, unemployment assistance, free housing allocation, The all-round urban security system and free education for children will be talked about in your cram school. Now everyone queues up in an orderly manner to receive today's dinner and today's labor fees, gather at six o'clock tomorrow morning, and you can go home to rest if you come late, our construction project can not be delayed, and the weather will be cooler in three months, which will affect the stability of building materials, we must complete the main construction of the city before the weather turns cooler, at least I personally think that the folks in our state capital are the strongest, and cannot become the bottom of the construction progress in the eleven cities, so my face can not be hung up, I don't know if the faces of the villagers are hanging! ”

The words of the doctors who presided over the construction of the cities aroused the high enthusiasm of the craftsmen and people of the cities, the sumptuous dinners and the labor fees of the daily settlement, especially the residents of the cities, so that the young people of the state capitals gathered in the cities of their respective state capitals, and the 150 ten-storey residential buildings in each city completed the construction of the main structure in two weeks, and began the work of threading and walking the pipeline, and the cities were divided into commercial districts, research and development areas, entertainment areas, residential areas, and high-polluting industrial zones outside the city. Sewage and garbage treatment stations, thermal power stations, tap water storage and purification tanks, farms and pastures and other factories and facilities that are not suitable for construction in the city, the initial formation of the state of operation of the eleven cities, ushered in the major investors to subscribe to profitable factories and farms and pastures climax, the emergence of general hospitals so that the original Dayan Empire and other terminal diseases such as tuberculosis, brain tumors and other diseases that need to be removed by surgery can be solved, even Tuobu Yuanqi also came to Jing'an City to go to the general hospital for a full body examination, found the presence of emphysema symptoms, Pumping out the accumulated water in the lungs has greatly improved the feeling of tightness in Tuobuyuan's chest.

Tuobu Yuanqi was also fascinated by the entertainment area of the new city, not only the gentle township of the bathing center made him nostalgic, but also the large-scale entertainment facilities, in the high-speed movement, the excitement and fun brought by him was the first experience in his life, especially to see that many princes, marquis and various factions who invested in urban construction have moved their mansions and general altars to the residential areas of the new city, he is also excited here, and wants to move the palace to Jing'an City The mayor elected by the Jing'an City Residents' Congress Tuob Yinsi refused, the reason is very simple, It is okay for Tuobu Yuan to come to Jing'an City to live, but he needs to abide by the rules of Jing'an City, and it is not allowed to have private arms to disturb the lives of other residents of Jing'an City.

The princes and ministers who have tasted the sweetness of living in the city have also moved out the words of the sages to persuade the emperor Tuob Yuanqi, completely standing on the side of his nephew Tuob Yinhei, so that Tuob Yuan is not light, but the garrison composed of a thousand-person rifle team and a hundred-person mortal-level cultivator in Jing'an City, let Tuobu Yuanqi know that if he sends troops to attack, he will definitely lose, although he is the Ninety-Five, the overlord of the Eastern Continent, but the current status quo is the modern life of the major emerging cities and the complete exemption of personal taxes, The people who can still walk in the state capitals have poured into the new cities, and the towns of the major state capitals are like ghosts, often a large town is left with dozens of elderly people with limited mobility to stay, restaurants, pawnshops, red mansions and other commercial operators have also left, and now 90% of the population of the Dayan Empire is concentrated in the major cities, and the only town that can barely maintain is only Kaiping City, which has lost its former prosperity under the impact of various new cities, and it is deserted a lot.

Tuob Yuanqi couldn't hold back the desire in his heart, first issued an edict to invite Song Taiping to come to the palace to talk about it, who knew that all of them were blocked back by Shangguan Yi, claiming that her master Song Taiping and Xiang Shaowu's junior brother were in retreat to study and practice exercises, and no one was allowed to disturb him, Tuob Yuanqi personally went to the Pingxi General's Mansion and was still stopped by Shangguan Yi, Xu Xiansheng of Zhitian Pavilion, the former beggar hall master Hong Jiuyang, the former Red Mansion Gate master Yaoyao, the former undead sect leader Wang Zhitian and other heads of the cultivation world also appeared in the Pingxi General's Mansion to block, If Tuobu Yuanqi insisted on breaking into the retreat room of Song Taiping and Xiang Shaowu, he would kill Tuobu Yuanqi here.

Tuobu Yuanqi faced such a fierce cultivator in charge, so he had no choice but to back down, and sent a message to Song Zhenhai to Song Taiping, asking Song Taiping to transform Kaiping City into those eleven cities, it didn't matter what the dragon veins were, the materials and silver needed were from him Tuobu Yuan.

At this time, Song Taiping had secretly arrived at Beihai Mansion with Xiang Shaowu, and together with an elite rifle team of fifty people, they went to sea in ten small fishing boats to the Boer Empire.
