Chapter 197: Population Disparity

The appearance of Sword Island has changed greatly from when Luo Qing left Sword Island.

One of the biggest changes is the opening of the canal located inside the island of Sword.

With this canal, Sword Island can be regarded as truly invulnerable, and the sea ships located on the periphery of Sword Island can directly enter the interior of Sword Island to take refuge at a critical moment, and if necessary, these ships can sail out at any time to fight externally.

When Luo Qing returned to Sword Island, he took a sea boat and directly entered the island in the middle of the lake.

Disembarking at the newly built dock, Li Wenchang and others hurriedly greeted them.

"Meet my lord. Li Wenchang and the others all knelt down in front of Luo Qing.

Luo Qing opened the attribute panel and glanced at the loyalty of Li Wenchang and the others, compared to when Luo Qing left before, the loyalty of Li Wencheng and the others at this moment was even higher, almost close to the full value.

In this case, Luo Qing didn't have to worry about Li Wenchang and the others betraying him at all.

If one day, the loyalty of Li Wenchang and others suddenly plummets, it is when Luo Qing should really pay attention.

After returning to the lord's mansion with Li Wenchang and the others, Luo Qing began to inquire about the recent situation on Sword Island.

Li Wenchang said with a happy face: "Lord, the development process of Sword Island is now very smooth, the current population of the island is close to 40,000, and it is still increasing, in addition, the fastest development is still in the field of technology, last time we used the Yuan Neng Chariot to exchange many high-tech drawings from the outside world, these drawings have greatly enhanced the technical strength of our Sword Island, and I have now let these technicians begin to unite together to supplement the lack of the Yuan Neng Chariot." ”

Next, Li Wenchang reported in detail all aspects of the development of Jiandao.

On the whole, the development of Sword Island is indeed very smooth, although it is not as rapid as the previous stage, but it is also smooth.

It's no wonder that Li Wenchang and others are all happy.

In their opinion, according to the development trend of Sword Island, it will only become stronger and stronger, and it will even be able to become a third-level territory soon.

But Luo Qing himself was not too satisfied with the speed of development of Sword Island.

"You guys go get busy first, and invite Li Wan over. Luo Qing ordered with a frown.

Li Wan is now the deputy island master of the sword dao, but she is very measured in her work, and she hardly interferes in anything on the sword island, and only at the critical moment will she put forward some very constructive suggestions.

Of course, Luo Qing knew that Li Wan did this to avoid suspicion, if she interfered too much and provoked Luo Qing to be dissatisfied, then her position on Sword Island would be embarrassing, so it was better to interfere as little as possible in the affairs of Sword Island.

Of course, Luo Qing was also very satisfied with Li Wan's interesting behavior.

And now, in Luo Qing's heart, he has also begun to regard Li Wan as a member of Sword Island, instead of being too defensive of Li Wan as he did at the beginning.

"Lord. Li Wan quickly walked into the Lord's Mansion, and with a smile on her face, she took the initiative to greet Luo Qing.

In the entire Sword Island, only Li Wan saw Luo Qing, and she directly addressed the lord, and even the word adult depended on her mood.

This kind of trivial matter, of course Luo Qing doesn't care about anything, watching Li Wan walk in, Luo Qing nodded slightly and said: "I asked you to come over this time, I want you to help make a plan for the future development of Sword Island, I think, for now, the development speed of Sword Island is too slow." ”

"You've finally figured it out. Li Wan glanced at Luo Qing and said: "You, the lord, are not on Sword Island every day, even if Sword Island really wants to develop rapidly, it is impossible, in fact, the current development scale of Sword Island is much behind other powerful territories, although Sword Island is currently ranked second in the lord's strength rankings, but this second is already very reluctant, and it will not be much stronger than the top ten territories ranked behind." ”

Luo Qing stared at Li Wan with interest and said, "How did you find out about these?"

In the end, if there is no leap forward in the development of the territories of various places, the strength will tend to be equal.

It's like the No. 1 Chinese Xuanwu Territory, which is definitely not much stronger than Sword Island. And Sword Island is not much stronger than the next few territories.

Of course, these territories still have a crushing advantage over those that are behind.

Each of these top territories has its own unique opportunities and unique means, and it is really hard to say who will win and who will lose if they fight each other.

This concept of convergence of territorial strength is still Luo Qing's previous life, and it seems on the Internet.

If Sword Island wants to have an absolute advantage over other territories and form a crushing advantage, it will take at least another year for Luo Qing to lay out.

However, Luo Qing didn't tell anyone about this.

And now, Li Wan has begun to discover the problem of the development of Sword Island, which shows that Li Wan is still very concerned about the affairs of Sword Island.

Li Wan pouted and said: "I read it on the Internet, there is nothing going on in Sword Island recently, so I have a lot of time to soak in the Internet in reality, according to the lot of information I have collected on the Internet, I found that in addition to our Sword Island, the population of many of the top ten territories is almost reaching 100,000, what does this mean, you should know it." ”

"Level 3 Territory. Luo Qing's expression suddenly became extremely solemn.

Sword Island was the first to break through the second-level territory, and it was not long after the breakthrough, and the current population of Sword Island was less than 40,000.

And to promote the third-level territory, a population of 100,000 is required.

According to the current development trend, Sword Island will not be able to be promoted to a third-level territory in a short period of time.

The third-level territory and the second-level territory are definitely two concepts of existence.

Jumping from level 1 to level 2 allows the province to have the power to open up vassal realms.

And jumping from the second level to the third level, in addition to the power to open up a second vassal territory, there will also be an additional power to divide military merits.

The main function of this power was to allow the territory to begin to establish contact with the Han dynasty in Middle-earth.

The lord of the territory can accept tasks from the local government, such as suppressing rebellions and other tasks, so as to earn military merits and obtain feuds.

After the partition, the territories of each region will have their own titles.

The level of the title affects the attitude of the government towards these territories.

Just like the territory of the Three Snake Mountain, now the territory of the Three Snake Mountain is only a second-level territory, protected by the government, if it is invaded by other places, the government may send a certain number of people to support.

But that's it, if the Three Snakes Mountain becomes a third-level territory, and makes military exploits for the imperial court, it will be divided.

As long as the title of the feudal is high enough, for example, when it reaches the level of feudal marquis, a word from the lord of the Three Snakes Mountain can even dispatch all the elite soldiers of the nearby government for their own use.

This is only the basic benefit of having a knighthood, after having a knighthood, in terms of technological development, recruiting manpower and many other aspects, the same benefits are huge.
