Airo also responded, and said with a smile: "That's right. As you can see, Mr. Sugarcoat, the lake is huge, but not so big that it is infinite. From our side, it was clear that the lake was surrounded by the Mountains of Changmian. So, this can be considered an inland lake. Every winter, snow accumulates in a part of the Changmian Mountains, which melts and flows down in the spring, becoming the source of the lake's water resources. ”

Sugar-coated wine approached the lake and reached out to test the temperature of the lake. It's cold, and the water looks pretty clear.

"So? Then I'm really looking forward to the fish dinner in your town! I'll tell you the truth, I've come from the capital, and I've been hinterland all the way, and I've hardly eaten any fish, and my mouth is dying. ”

Hearing this request of sugar-coated wine, Arrow could only show a wry smile. The mayor of Round Cheese on the side also looked helpless now, shrugging his shoulders.

Seeing the expressions of the two, the sugar-coated wine looked a little stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Any questions? ”

Round Cheese smiled and said, "If you want to eat fish...... It's okay, we can go to the big cities and import some fish. But if you're looking to fish from this hidden lake, you might be in trouble. ”

Seeing Sugarcoat's inexplicable expression now, Arrow stepped forward and said, "Mr. Sugarcoat, when I first arrived in this town, I thought I could eat fish. But when I understood why the Hidden Lake was called that, I realized that there was probably no way to eat fresh fish here. ”

"I don't know when it started to be very rare to catch fish in this lake. Even if some are sometimes caught, the fish is very small, not much bigger than a finger. ”

"At first, I thought there was something wrong with the water, but Mayor Round Cheese reassured me. I've lived so far, and there should be no problem with the lake. I don't know if it's because of some special environment or some other reason, the amount of aquatic products in this lake is very scarce. It is precisely because there is almost nothing to be salvaged in it that this lake is called the hidden lake. ”

Sugar-coated wine glanced at his lips and said a little unwillingly, "Have you investigated?" Isn't it strange that there are no fish in such a large lake? ”

Arrow shrugged his shoulders and said, "Our guild used to row a boat around the perimeter of this lake, but it was surrounded by mountains, and there really wasn't anything wrong with it from the surface of the lake. But if there is any problem under the surface of the lake, then our guild's current strength still can't be investigated clearly. ”

The old man thought about it, and seemed to be struggling with some questions.

After a while, he finally got tangled up and said with determination, "Okay! There are no fish without fish! This is an inland lake, so maybe there are no fish fry in it. If we think about it from another angle, wouldn't it be a good summer retreat if we built a row of inns next to this lake and designed a few pavilions on the lake? It's a great place to visit! ”

Of course, if you want to develop tourism anywhere and find some quirky spots to develop, the only problem is funding. As long as the funds are in place, even the poor mountains and bad waters can develop a paradise for you on earth.

After circling Pelican Town, the group returned to the mayor's office again. After the round cheese and icing wine were seated separately, the old man began to spread his hands with great interest and smiled: "Mayor of round cheese, I have great admiration for the fact that you can manage this town so well!" At the same time, I also hope to do my part for the prosperity of Pelican Town! ”

"We've seen the town just now, and I've learned a little bit about it. So, I hope to get straight to the point and talk about investment and partnerships. ”

Arrow couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mr. Sugarcoat, you've been complimenting us all the way on how good our town is, so you're not going to be able to bargain like this?" ”

Originally, Arrow just wanted to say this and make fun of this old man.

But unexpectedly, Sugar-Coated said with a serious face: "President Arrow, I sincerely want to come here to cooperate with you, of course, I won't do that kind of thing that deliberately belittles you and then bargains." I think Mayor Round Cheese is also a wise mayor, so there's no need to be such a villain. ”

Since the sugar-coated wine said so, then Arrow could only pout his lips as if he hadn't said anything more.

The old man turned to the mayor again and said slowly, "Mayor Round Cheese, based on what I have just seen and judged, I want to develop Pelican Town into a tourist city based on tourism and service industries. After all, your environment here is amazing! There are mountains, rivers, forests and plains, excellent public security conditions, and complete basic living facilities. It really doesn't take much effort to build a tourist city. ”

"To this end, I can take the lead in taking out 5,000 gold coins as the initial start-up capital, so that our town can carry out the preliminary preparation and industrial transition. If so, can we do that? ”

From before to now, the mayor of Pelican Town has always been in a state of confusion that is not too clear.

It can be said that he has been here to accompany shopping from the beginning.

After hearing that Sugarcoat wanted to really start talking about the business of expanding the town, the mayor naturally shut down.

Especially, when I heard the starting capital of 5,000 gold coins.

The icing wine fluttered slightly, he cautiously approached the round cheese, and said softly, "Mayor Town? Mr. Mayor? Are you listening to me? Feed? ”

"Huh? Yes! Ahhh I'm here, I'm here! What did we just say? ”

Finally, round cheese came back from this panicked situation, and the whole person was still in that state of being at a loss.

Sugarcoat's brow furrowed slightly: "I mean, I want to build Pelican Town into a tourist city, so I'm willing to provide 5,000 gold coins as a starting capital." Do you think there's anything wrong with this proposal? ”

Now, round cheese was finally not intimidated. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stretched out a palm and tried to open it, gesturing in front of him over and over again. After a long time, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said tremblingly, "5...... 5,000 gold coins? Give us 5,000 gold coins directly? ”

Sugar-coated wine nodded, with a slightly puzzled look on his face: "Yes, 5,000 gold coins." How? Think it's less? But I don't have a lot of money with me right now, and I may need to go to the big city to adjust if I need more. ”

"No, no, no! I...... That was not what I meant! I mean! ”

A guild war, the entire Pelican Town spent so much time and energy, and only earned about 2,000 gold coins.

But now as soon as someone else opens his mouth, he will give 5,000 gold coins! You can't find such a good thing with a lantern!

"I mean! My side completely—"

But just when Mayor Round Cheese wanted to say yes, his mouth suddenly froze.

The chubby mayor turned his head and his gaze fell on Arrow, as if asking for his opinion. But when he saw that Arrow was now frowning and thinking carefully, the "consent" that was about to squirt out of his mouth was immediately swallowed by him, and he sat down in his seat again.

"That...... That one...... For such a big matter, I would like to hear as much as possible from the various businesses and residents in our town. That one...... President Arrow! You're also a member of our town, what do you think of this proposal? ”

Judging from the direction of Prosperous Pelican Town, Arrow really felt that there was nothing wrong with this proposal of sugar-coated wine.

However, if you think about it from the perspective of the mermaid song, there are really a lot of issues to consider.

However, he wouldn't directly voice those doubts as the president of the Mermaid Song.

"Mr. Sugarcoat, first of all I really appreciate you wanting to invest in our Pelican Town. But since you mentioned that our town is suitable for tourism, that is, to develop the service industry. So what should we do with the farms and farms around Pelican Town, and the many people who depend on agricultural products for their livelihoods? ”

Sugar-coated wine waved his hand and smiled: "Isn't this simple?" I gave 5,000 gold coins to help start the economic transformation of all walks of life in our town. They can start from being farmers and transform into service workers in the city. I believe that with the salary of a farmer who does not earn three or four gold coins a year, he is still willing to give up this dirty work and find a new job in the brand new Pelican City, right? ”

Arrow pinched his chin, still frowning, and said, "So, what about the food supply?" ”

Sugar-coated wine: "In addition to Pelican Town, the surrounding Kingfisher Town and Honglu Town are basically agricultural towns. Food supplies can be purchased from these two towns. No matter how bad it is, Lagoon City is not very far from here, so you can still make purchases! Didn't you do the same when you were fighting guild wars? ”

Eero: "If all the food is imported, then the price of food will go up. Will this increase adversely affect the residents of our town? ”
