Chapter 142: You Must Be Her Majesty
Severny listened to the conversation between the two with a smile on the side, and his heart was full of relief.
Although the emaciated man named Ronnie still felt distressed about the need to pay five gold coins a year to join the health insurance system, under the persuasion of Shaq, he really got moved and began to seriously consider how to implement the medical security system for his family.
If he didn't want to continue to hide his identity, Sevini would have gone up to him in person to explain the proposal proposed by Xu Yi, and after careful consideration, Sevini decided to give the highest priority to the welfare policy.
Originally, according to Sevigny's idea, it was planned that the residents of Bonta City would not need to pay their own hardware coins every year, and all the expenses would be borne by the Bonta City treasury.
But Xu Yi blocked Sevigny's idea.
Perhaps in the early stages, the residents of Bangta City would not consider seeking medical help when they were sick due to their previous habits, but once the medical guarantee system is implemented and the residents find that the cost of medical treatment is not high, then the vast majority of residents will choose to take advantage of the system.
If this is the case, then the city of Bonta, no matter how good its finances are, may not be able to afford the huge expenses required.
Even now, according to Xu Yi's suggestion, the standard of each person's annual payment of hardware coins has been set, and according to the estimation of the City Lord's Mansion, the annual investment in the hospital built by the City Lord's Mansion last month alone outside the city will be close to 200,000 gold coins.
In order to ensure the medical standards of this Bunta City Citizen Hospital, Sevini even personally stepped in and invited several highly skilled doctors from Anvimar City.
Of course. The salaries offered to these doctors are also extremely superior. The minimum is more than 1,000 gold coins per year.
And this money. Naturally, even in the cost of the hospital, it is part of the financial burden of Bonta City.
Shaq and Ronnie discussed for a while, and when the next bus came, the two paused their discussion and got on the magic locomotive, and Sevigny followed behind.
This bus magic locomotive departs from Bonta City and goes to the terminal Falling Rain Valley, which was originally a full journey. The fare charged by Filson was thirty denarii, and Sevigny later announced a financial subsidy for the public transport system in the town of Bonta, which reduced the fare to twenty-five silver coins for the whole trip.
Although the difference was only five silver coins, once this policy of the City Lord's Mansion was implemented, it was immediately praised by everyone up and down the city of Bangta.
Despite being the lord of the city for less than half a year, Severny already had a high reputation in the city of Bonta, and was called "a respected, loved, great and beautiful lord of the city" by the daily newspaper Bonta.
There are even some well-meaning residents of Bonta City who privately hail Sevinny as another "Bonta Goddess" after Steele.
It's just that unlike Steele, who obtained this title entirely by virtue of her beauty and fame, the title that Sevigny received contained more of the gratitude and love of the ordinary people of Bonta City for her.
After getting into the car, Ronnie and Shaq continued to talk about the medical security system, chatting and chatting. talked about the city lord's mansion that promulgated this policy, and then naturally began to praise Steele.
Listen to the words of praise that came out of the lips of the two. Although it was all the truth, it still made Sevigny blush slightly, and he quietly lowered his head in embarrassment.
If people recognized her as the lord of the city in the car now, the scene would definitely be extremely embarrassing.
After driving for a while, some new people came up from several other stations.
Some of the passengers heard Ronnie and Shaq discussing it, and they couldn't help but join in, and a group of people enthusiastically discussed the various policies implemented by the City Lord's Mansion.
Among them, the vast majority are praises for these policies, and of course, a small number of them feel bad and put forward opinions.
For example, most people think that the overall urban renovation project of Bangta City is a good policy for the benefit of the people, but two people say that because there are construction projects everywhere inside and outside the city every day, it is very dusty and noisy, and even the construction is starting at night, which affects rest.
For example, there are also a few people who have different views on the policy of simultaneous development of agriculture and commerce and common development that Severny has been promoting since he took over as the lord of the city.
In their opinion, Bang Ta City is actually mainly business-oriented now, even if a large number of outsiders pour in, they basically join the work of various large and small chambers of commerce in the city, of course, it is impossible to come all the way to Bang Ta City to farm.
Since this is the case, then Lord Sevini should be a little more bold, simply transform Bonta City into a commercial city, and increase support for the chambers of commerce in the city.
As for agriculture? Isn't there a professional agricultural chamber of commerce, the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, just leave it to them.
Sevini couldn't help but smile when he heard the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, which was obviously the small merchant that had been everywhere in the city recently, talk about it.
When Xu Yi made a bet with her before, he claimed that the Cantona Chamber of Commerce could pay taxes of more than 200,000 gold coins at the end of the year, but Sevini didn't believe it at all.
Since the total tax paid by the Cantona Chamber of Commerce before that time was less than 50,000 gold coins, in Sevigny's opinion, it was impossible to complete the task of paying the 200,000 tax in the next four months.
Who knew that in the annual tax statistics report of Bonta City that Sevini saw before, it can be clearly found that the Cantona Chamber of Commerce has handed over as much as 230,000 gold coins so far.
If you pay the last month's tax, it may even be close to 300,000 gold coins!
I have to say that this achievement of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce is really much beyond Sevigny's expectations.
Because even Severny himself has always felt that the output of agriculture is far inferior to that of commerce, and the main business of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce is agriculture, then it is difficult for them to generate such a large profit that they will pay more taxes than many of the small chambers of commerce in the city that he founded.
The main reason why the Cantona Chamber of Commerce was able to pay so many taxes was because of a new product launched by their Chamber of Commerce - Luyuan juice.
This is made from fresh fruit pressed and made with the unique recipe of the elves. Not only does it have the flavor of fresh fruit juice. Fruit juice drinks, which can be stored for a long time, have been very popular since they were launched.
Now, not only in Bang Ta City, you can find a variety of flavors of green juice. Even the Cantona Chamber of Commerce sells it to various cities in the kingdom through the Guò Wal-Mart Chamber of Commerce, and the sales volume is extremely high.
What's more, with the popularity of this juice, the villagers of the three villages contracted by the Cantona Chamber of Commerce have a better way to handle the fruit produced, which has made the farmers in the three villages more enthusiastic about growing fruit.
Now the villagers of the three villages in Mexiran Village also have a much higher income than the villagers in other villages outside the city because of planting fruit trees, so that many villages outside the city have applied to the city lord's mansion to plan to change to fruit planting next year.
If it was before, in order to ensure basic food production. Severny would never have acceded to such a request.
But now, thanks to the use of chemical fertilizers, the grain production per unit of the city of Bangta has been greatly increased, and the Cantona Chamber of Commerce has contracted the farmland of three villages, of which only the village of Kambia is still growing basic food, but the harvest is much more than the previous three villages planted at the same time combined.
Thinking of this, Sevini thought of the fertilizer factory set up by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at Sanchiton Manor.
Fertilizer has shown a strong effect in the two harvests in Bang Ta City this year, and although some people with ulterior motives still question whether the grain grown after eating it will cause problems, the Xinfei Fertilizer Factory has received a large number of orders from all over the kingdom in the two months after the end of the autumn harvest in Bang Ta City.
According to the situation that Xu Yilin revealed to Sevigny before leaving, the current backlog of fertilizer orders at the Xinfei fertilizer plant is even as high as a terrifying 4 million tons.
And the Xinfei fertilizer plant now has limited output. By next year's spring ploughing, it will only be able to produce 700,000 tons at most.
Except for a part of the city of Bunta. The rest of the share was also left to Sevigny, so that she could decide which order to complete first.
Of course, Severny knew very well that this was a great favor that Xu Yi gave her.
Fertilizer is so effective in increasing grain production that if a city gets the help of chemical fertilizer, it will inevitably have a good harvest in the following harvest season.
For the kingdom of Lampari, which still regards agriculture as a top priority, a city with satisfactory food production means that the lord of the city will be appreciated.
Put simply, Severny has the right to distribute the surplus fertilizer and decides which cities can benefit from it.
This is very important for her to get support.
Xu Yi obviously understood this, so he chose to leave this decision to Sevigny.
Thinking of this, Sevini couldn't help but feel deep gratitude and a trace of inexplicable affection for Xu Yi in his heart.
If it weren't for Xu Yi's survival, the city of Bonta would not have become as prosperous as it is now, and Sevini would not have seen hope in it to change the entire kingdom.
If possible, Sevini would like to give Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce greater support, so that Xu Yi can improve the situation of the entire Lampari Kingdom more quickly and smoothly, make the whole kingdom rich and powerful, and make all the people in the kingdom become the same as the current residents of Bunta City, not only can they be fed and clothed, but they can also have a surplus economy to enjoy a better life.
But to do this, Sevigny's current status as a royal daughter is far from enough.
If he really wanted to give Xu Yi the maximum support he needed, Severny would have to ascend to the throne that everyone in the kingdom was clinging to.
Only when she becomes the queen of the Lampari Kingdom can she be qualified to give Xu Yi truly strong support.
In order to ascend to the throne, in addition to the support of the nobles in the kingdom, the support of ordinary people is also essential.
Listening to the recognition of himself revealed in the words of everyone in the car. Grateful and even loved from the bottom of his heart, Sevinj smiled lightly, thinking that if all the people in the kingdom could enjoy the affluent life of the current inhabitants of Bonta City, then they would surely support themselves as these people did.
However, at this moment, a cold snort suddenly sounded in the car.
"You guys blow the princess of Severny like a god, but in my opinion, she's bullshit!" (To be continued......)
