Chapter 426 Renewable Resources
I have to say that with the help of Steward Xu in the management of Luohua City, Baozhu has a lot of worries.
Just tell him what you think, and he will not only discuss it with you constructively, but also help you get it done quickly and thoughtfully.
Regarding the printing of scripts, signing and selling books, and preparing for the construction of the school hall, after Baozhu instructed, Manager Xu contacted the relevant people and others to arrange the official duties one by one.
As the most central and most prosperous city in the Marfa continent, Luohua City mainly sources its economic income from the mines of Nanshan.
This question had troubled Baozhu for a while.
In the real world, everyone knows that mineral resources are non-renewable resources with limited reserves.
If the mine in Nanshan is dug up one day, will the economic income of Luohua City not be greatly affected?
She had talked to Steward Xu about this concern, but Steward Xu told her that all the minerals in the Marfa Continent were renewable resources.
For example, the crystal and garnet mines in Luohua City and the black iron ore in Half Moon Valley are limited in each period, but they will still regenerate after the current mining is completed.
Minerals are based on the total growth cycle of each ore when it is mined.
The reformation cycle of ore is about one to two years.
If it is mined at the beginning of forming, it is the most common ore;
If the forming period is more than 100 years, it can be called a high-grade ore, and its efficacy will be greatly enhanced.
The best ore refers to the one that has been formed for more than 500 years, and the longer the age, the better it is.
For example, the thousand-year-old garnet excavated in Nanshan last year was later made into a hairpin and was auctioned by Pan Ruqi;
For example, a few years ago, I heard that Half Moon Valley had dug a piece of thousand-year-old black iron.
But the best ore is too rare in the Marfa continent.
As soon as Steward Xu explained this, Baozhu understood.
As a game, this premise is correct.
I think when she played the game, she also worked as a miner for a period of time in order to improve her equipment attributes.
Often she would have mined ore somewhere in the mine, and if she had continued to dig at that time, she would not have been able to dig in this location for a short time.
But if she waits a few minutes or longer and hoes in the same spot, she will soon be able to dig up new ore.
After understanding this problem, she had new worries.
If the ore is so easy to dig, will it lead to an oversupply in the final market, and the price of the ore will be affected?
A series of obviously layman's questions were asked so bluntly that Steward Xu wondered if she was a native of the Marfa continent.
However, Steward Xu still patiently popularized science for her.
More than 500 years can be called the best ore, which is extremely rare in the market, so there can never be a situation where supply exceeds demand.
High-grade ore, which has been established for a hundred years, is basically in short supply in the market.
As for ordinary ores, they are purely consumable due to their low efficacy.
For example, ordinary garnet, because of the mana enhancement and physical properties that can help people strengthen their bodies are very limited, they can be absorbed by the human body and turned into waste stone within three to five days at most.
The regeneration cycle of ordinary ore is at least more than one year, coupled with factors such as mine area and mining manpower, which will still cause a shortage of such consumables in the market.
Weapons and armor forged from poor black iron ore also have the disadvantage of being easy to wear and break.
Often, after one or two battles, the weapons and armor made of ordinary black iron will face a situation of upgrading.
Steward Xu's popularization of the ore of the Marfa Continent completely put her mind at ease.
With such a setting, she doesn't have to worry that mining, as the pillar industry of Luohua City, will decline one day.
Fortunately, when Hua Wuxin was there, she had already put the management of the ore mining industry in Falling Flower City on track, and she didn't need to worry too much about this aspect.
But she still believes that Luohua City should not only walk on one leg of mining, but also vigorously develop commerce and agriculture in the future.
Since taking office, he has been very busy every day, first spending three days to familiarize himself with the history of the city, and then he is busy making various plans for the emperor's name, and he is busy receiving visits from people at all levels every day......
So much so that these days, she herself feels that she has left Lu Yunchu in the cold.
Fortunately, the wedding date is scheduled for November 11, and there are about 20 days left, and I can marry him justifiably...... Well, I can marry him justifiably.
However, it seems that in the past few days, in addition to staring at Liu Zhiyuan's task of telling stories, Lu Yunchu seems to be often too busy to see anyone......
Since that day, Steward Xu and Lu Yunchu released their previous suspicions, she felt that the relationship between the two was a little too good now.
No matter how busy Lu Yunchu is every day, three meals a day will be delivered on time.
I came over a few times to see that she was busy, and she didn't stick to her as before, but walked out with Steward Xu one after another, and the two of them walked far away before stopping, muttering for a long time.
Often when the steward Xu returned to the study to stand aside, Lu Yunchu had quietly left.
She also asked Steward Xu several times what the two were muttering, and Steward Xu replied to her seriously: secret.
Between the two men, the old man and the young man, there is a secret that cannot be told to her......
Hmph, a secret is a secret......
Steward Xu's mouth can't be pried open, so she always has a way to pry Lu Yunchu's mouth open, right?
She decided that when she saw Lu Yunchu again today, she must use a little beauty trick to find out the secret from Lu Yunchu's mouth. If only then she is too busy to forget about it......
As for meeting different visitors every day, that's the most time-consuming.
Every day, the doorman receives posts from people from all walks of life who want to visit her for various matters.
At the beginning, she was in a serious and responsible attitude of work, as long as there was a person who paid a visit, she would meet with her.
But she found that most of the visitors came to get in touch with the city lord.
For example, Wang Youcai.
I have to say that Wang Youcai is really a good social player.
When she simply became familiar with her job responsibilities and agreed to meet visitors, Wang Youcai was one of the first people to hand over the post.
Thinking that there was at least some negotiation in the past, she met with him.
Wang Youcai entered the council hall and felt very familiar when he saw the new city lord.
After a while, I remembered that this was not the little doorman of Ruyixuan last year? It was also the woman who had gone to his mansion with Lu Yunchu to investigate the fact that the ore in the warehouse was sucked!
After Wang Youcai was stunned, he immediately made up his brain: it turned out that the new city owner had foresight, and he had been immersed in the people to experience life and solve problems for the people.
Wang Youcai's visit was not a big deal, he just wanted to invite the new city lord to the mansion for dinner and get closer to him.
She didn't agree to Wang Youcai's invitation, she didn't dare.
It's not that I'm worried that with my current status, I'm not suitable to get too close to the rich people outside.
She was just worried that if she really went to Wang Youcai's mansion to eat, then someone would make a meal for her and no one would enjoy it.
In that case, someone will be very angry, right? If he is angry, what will he do to Wang Youcai......
She didn't dare to think about it.
