Demolition is definitely a big deal, and for this once calm and peaceful place, it may be the most impactful thing that has ever happened. Otis was once a fiefdom of the Marquis as the gateway to the imperial capital from north to south before Yao Jing was discovered. At that time, transportation capacity was low and transportation was inconvenient, and Otis became a natural "passage" where merchants gathered.

It was only later that Yaojing changed the world, so this once prosperous place was gradually forgotten and abandoned by people, and there is today's situation.

Dewell looked at the announcement on the wall, and as he read it, he gradually understood the so-called demolition.

The town hall intends to turn the land in the center of the city, which was originally a park, into a park and farmland. Some elderly people who are old and have no children with them have no way to go to the outskirts of the city to find a piece of land to work, so they can only look for it nearby. In fact, there are some open spaces in front of and behind every house, and these open spaces are almost the same as growing some vegetables, and it is absolutely not enough to grow wheat kernels that are enough for two or three people to eat for a year.

So the old people came up with the idea of the park, and they dug all the land in the park into farmland, and some ornamental vegetation that had not been well cared for was also eradicated. Now it's just a lip service to say it's a park, and in everyone's mind, it's farmland.

This land occupies the best position but does not play any role, in the past, the town hall was built close to the station for convenience, but now the problem is not whether it is convenient or not, but the town hall needs majesty and dominance. There was no doubt that the center of the city was clearly the best place to be, so Dührin planned to place the town hall in the center of the city.

The more Dewell reads, the more excited some of the old people become, it is obvious that if the park is demolished, there is no such place, and many people will have to go farther away to plant wheat, which is definitely a disservice to these elderly people, how can the city hall take away their land? Some people begged Dewell to continue reading, and some people were so angry that they left, and after glancing at the last backs of those old people, Dewell's eyes shifted to the notice.

This happens in many places, and it is much more expensive to rebuild an old city than it is to rebuild a new one. What Dührin lacks at the moment is time and accumulation, so he finally decided to try to renovate the old city, and the construction of the town hall is only the first step, and then the city hall will build a real gold cave belonging to Otis around the town hall.

As for the issue of residence...... Du Lin felt that he could refer to the federal practice and use high-rise apartment buildings to arrange these residents who occupy hundreds of square meters or more. Of course, there will be some problems along the way, but the sacrifices necessary for the sake of the general direction and the well-being of all residents are certain. When a city is built well, it also has a positive effect on increasing the per capita income of the local people.

Look at the imperial capital, the per capita income is sixty or seventy yuan, and Tennell is only ten or twenty yuan, this is the gap.

Either way, urban renewal is imperative.

The city is finally waking up, people are discussing the idea of a new mayor and the concept of governance, and at the same time, there are some people who feel the change in Otis, at least outsiders are willing to come here, and even willing to spend money to buy some houses. This was unimaginable before, so the residents of Otis were divided into two factions, one group felt that the new mayor really wanted to change something, and the other group felt that the new mayor recklessly disrupted the peace of the city, which should not be the thing.

Just as these people had brought Dewell, who had somehow turned into an important figure in the "opposition", together for a discussion, Selie appeared in front of Durin again.

"Mr. Mayor, this is a little thing that the boss asked me to bring, I hope you can take it!", this time Seli came to the city hall and did not look for Thomson, but directly found Durin's door. She carried a lot of things, and the last time she came here, her decisive disposal was recognized from above, and she was also encouraged and praised. This time, on the one hand, she came over to "pay taxes", and on the other hand, she also wanted to have a relationship with Du Lin Lala, and by the way, she tried to see if there was any possibility of operating this tax.

She also added with some anxiety, "It's all a specialty of my hometown, and it's not a valuable thing, you can see it everywhere." She had seen the old and new party officials who were trying to hide their hands while reaching out, so she didn't say what was inside.

Durin glanced at the beautifully packaged little box she had placed on the table, and reached out to pick it up, only to feel that the contents of the box were much heavier than he had imagined. He was stunned for a moment, and directly tore off the package in the twitching of the corner of Seli's mouth, and lifted the lid of the box. There were ten small golden bars in it, staggered together, no wonder they were so much heavier than he thought.

He pushed the box aside and looked at Seli, who was a little embarrassed, "Help me say hello to the leader of your organization, I like the hometown specialties he gave me very much." Say, what's the matter?"

Selie breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid that if Durin saw the contents and didn't accept them, it would be really troublesome. What made her feel a little embarrassed was that as soon as she finished talking about the worthless thing, Durin opened the box, a little uncomfortable. While breathing a sigh of relief, she also realized how big Durin's appetite was, and how much he had to take the little ten-pound gold bar, and he actually took it like that?

In fact, Seli didn't know the details of Durin, and if she did, she would definitely think that this was an ordinary gift. Ten pound gold bars were nothing, he had moved ten bigger ones from the Imperial Bank vault in Turnier's back then!

With a flattering smile, she lowered her head slightly, "Mr. Mayor, I don't know...... Can this special tax be lowered a little?", Saili said and quickly explained her words, "I don't mean that the tax rate you charge is too high, but I think we can use other ...... Ahem, what's the name?"

The word name was also taught to her by Sally's boss, and when her boss knew the whole process and read the authorization paperwork, she realized that there were other tricks in it. As for whether your guess is correct, you might as well arrange for Sally to try it. Cylie asked, maybe nothing will change, but if you don't ask, there will definitely be no change.

The 50 percent special tax is like bloodletting, and the stability is stable, but the income has also plummeted a lot, and it would be better if you could pay a little less.

Durin glanced at her and nodded, "Of course you can, but these are not enough!", he glanced at the box on the table, and Selie immediately understood, this is Durin thinks they are giving less.

Since there is a way to save some of the tax drawn, it is worth spending a little more money, and she immediately expresses her hope to get Doolin's guidance, but Doolin does not answer her question, but asks her to tell the boss behind her. If you want to do this well, you have to come to Otis and talk to him in person. Sending a messenger to talk about this kind of thing is easy to spread the wrong word and create contradictions.

Seli could only nod yes, then said a few words of compliment, and got up to take her leave, she had to go back to Namirlinders as soon as possible to tell the above about the matter.

Dührin also had Doolin in mind, and the 50 percent gross profit tax did seem scary, but it was for the right industry. Just like those ordinary shops on the side of the road, let alone taking 50 percent of their sales tax, even 5 percent could cause their income to drop dramatically.

In particular, Du Lin knows the inside story of this industry and understands the profits of these people, so he can directly ask for a 50% special tax like Hoston, and he is not afraid that these people will not pay.

He can lower the tax rate, but there is one thing, the other party must meet his conditions. Building Otis is not something that can be done by one person or two people, it requires the joint efforts and dedication of many people.

In the midst of these noisy days, Durin finally waited for a group of people sent by Carter. The man at the head, Doolin, had met in the church of the fifth district of Illion, and his name was Haight, and he was a wonderful lad. He is very energetic and passionate, and he is always the first to rush to the moonshine market in Holmary City, so Carter sent him here to give him a ride.

"You guys take care of your accommodation, and to be honest, even I sleep in the office right now. Durin patted Haidt on the shoulder and looked at the other twenty or so young people. Every time his gaze swept over the faces of these young men, they couldn't help but stand straight with their chests straight. They had personally participated in those battles, and they had seen what Durin had promised, and they saw Durin as their mentor and leader, regardless of their age!

"You may have to appear in front of people in a different way in the next period of ......time," he laughed, "Policeman, do you like this identity?"

A group of young men were dumbfounded, if Du Lin took out other identities, they might not be sensitive, but only the identity of the police made them a little ...... Startled. They used to be rule breakers, but in the blink of an eye, they became rule defenders, and this change of position is indeed a bit unexpected.

Haight was the first to react, he nodded vigorously, "Boss, don't worry, I can definitely do a good job!"
