Chapter 205: The sky is round
"Yes, I want 20 million people"
Gu Yi said firmly, as he gradually became familiar with this Great Wilderness World Realm, he learned more and more information, and the more he felt incredible about this strange world
Huge land area
Huge number of people
But it is an extremely primitive social form
How unreasonable
It is difficult to understand how such a large population could be fed in this primitive form of society
But no matter what caused this deformed prosperity, for Gu Yi, this is undoubtedly a great opportunity for the rise of the city, and almost no space for development
Before, when Gu Yi learned from Niusha and Geqiao that the area of this Zhongyu is about 1.5 million and 354 square kilometers, he also marveled at how the people of the Great Wilderness could measure such an accurate land area under such a primitive social background
Later, I slowly learned that this 1.5 million tuo, Nima refers not to the entire territory of 丨Zhongyou丨, but to the total area of the city with a high concentration of population
What mountains, rivers, lakes, forests... No one knows how big it is
No one will be idle to measure the area of these inaccessible places in the wilderness
Only those cities that have been built brick by brick can barely count the area, and this 1.5 million tuo refers to the total area of all the cities in the 81 counties, 729 mansions, 6,561 cities, 59,049 forts, tun, zhai, dock, and juwu
For example, Gu Yi, the one square kilometer occupied by Bluestone City, is one of 1.5 million in the middle of the secluded area
Horror, right?
Chills, right?
Gu Yi couldn't even imagine how huge this world was
With Gu Yi's knowledge system, he couldn't even find a reasonable explanation for the existence of this terrifyingly large world
If this "planet" is super huge, then what is the gravity, gravity, and density of this planet?
How do creatures survive in such a gravitational environment, and yet humans can grow up to have an aesthetic appearance?
Even if the native creatures were adapted to this gravitational environment, how could he, a chaotic intruder, adapt to the environment here, and yet not feel anything strange at all? Gu Yi even suspected for a moment that it was not that this world was very huge, but that the creatures in this world were extremely small...
All right
This speculation is also untenable, and in terms of Gu Yi's knowledge system, these problems are simply unsolvable
In other words, the appearance of he, an "outsider", in this worldly realm, is itself unreasonable
It seems that only the fundamentally unreasonable reason that his body has been transformed in the process of "entering the chaos" can explain the question of why he can live well in this huge world
In order to prevent himself from being driven crazy by these unreasonable problems, he had to give up the concept that "the earth is a ball" that he had accepted since he was a child, and thus tried to accept the concept of "the sky is round and the place is round" that people in the great wilderness generally believe.
In order to survive, he had to convince himself that he used to live on an "egg", but now he lives on a "quill cake".
In fact, this thing under his feet, is it an "egg" or an "egg cake", and it is about him?
As for where the "boundary" of this "egg cake" is, it doesn't really matter, because when he was in the original world, he didn't figure out "where is the boundary of the universe", which is too profound for the fart people, but it doesn't matter.
After convincing himself with an unreasonable reason, Gu Yi began to think of a way to arrange his future life, since he subconsciously couldn't accept that he was standing on a piece of "egg cake", then build a small local environment that was very similar to the original "egg" to numb himself
20 million people, is the data obtained by Gu Yi after calculation, 丨Qingwa City丨Qingshi City丨These two places, the collective dormitories and large residential communities built can just accommodate so many people.
And outside of these two cities, there is no way to know how much space there is for him to expand the city, the second ring, the third ring, the fourth ring... The construction of a hundred rings is enough
As for the various problems arising from such a high population density, militarized intensive management is enough to compress the living space required by the population to the greatest extent, and the high obedience of the subordinates who can feed them with food will not cause any problems in management, so what is there to worry about?
It's not too late to deal with those problems that you haven't thought of yet
Because Gu Yi's climbing science and technology tree is still very immature, the product projects he has made so far are only labor-intensive industries with initial industrial prototypes, and naturally a large number of people need to invest in them
The people of the Great Wilderness, who have a huge living space, seem to be only interested in the plains, and the huge mountains around them are simply unexplored and primitive, for Gu Yi, this pristine mountain range is simply a huge treasure full of various mineral deposits
How many people does he have to prepare to dig up these deposits?
It is precisely because of the natural rich mineral deposits that a large number of people are needed to develop, which is also the reason why Gu Yi Weilu will ask for 20 million people as soon as he opens his mouth.
In Gu Yi's "clothing, food, housing, and transportation" plan, he will face the Great Wilderness, a huge consumer population, but completely blank market, in order to put the four projects in the plan into operation, how much labor does he have to get to meet the production demand?
So, 20 million people is really not much
The only problem was how to solve the problem of food rations for this highly dense population of more than 20 million people, which was close to 15 UU tons a year, and in order to prevent that and at the same time a large amount of food was needed for production, he had to prepare at least five times this amount of food reserves
At present, such a huge food shortage, of course, can only rely on "imports", but looking at the appearance of Zhenning, it seems that he is not too embarrassed by the 100,000 thousand grains that Gu Yi asked for.
"If we want to build a large number of workshops as a reason, from the prefectures, cities, forts, tun, in batches to get 20 million people to move to the countryside and subordinate to the people, it is not difficult, 100,000 Hu grain from our business bank in various places of grain allocation, to also collect out, this autumn from all over the harvest of grain, are still hoarded in the warehouse, all kinds of grain and straw types add up, enough as 130,000 Hu..."
Just frowned and pondered for a while, Zhen Ning said to Gu Yi: "It's just that the recent turmoil in the hundred countries of the Qingshan Mansion and the Liyi tribes has affected the cities and forts in the Qingshan Mansion, and all the places are hoarding grain, and most of the grain hoarded by our commercial banks must be used as the military food reserves of the military forts in various places, and they have been ordered not to be bought and sold arbitrarily by the Qingshan Mansion."
"If you suddenly transfer it on a large scale, I'm afraid it will cause trouble, at most, you can take out 30,000 Hu first, and slowly send it to Qingshi City, and the remaining 70,000 Hu can only be transported from other provinces through the fleet of the trading house, I don't know if you will miss Shaoyi's matter?"
What kind of Li Yi disaster is this?
Gu Yi frowned, and calculated, 30,000 Hu grains are equivalent to UR 10,000 tons of grain, enough for 20 million people to eat for more than a year, except for the lack of reserves, there is not much of a problem, plus 20 million people, it is not possible to be in place immediately, and it is also necessary to go to Shicheng and Rongbao in various places to discuss the transfer of relocation and subordination, and considering the speed of the migration of subordinates, it is estimated that it will take at least half a year to get all in place.
It just so happens that the two places want to complete the Blue Stone City and the Blue Tile City, and it is estimated that it will take more than half a year at the earliest
"Then bother the merchant to come slowly, but the more this grain is better, if the fleet of the merchant house has surplus capacity, you can buy a large amount from other houses, as for the purchase of grain, please pay in advance..."
Gu Yi nodded: "It will probably take a few months for me to produce all kinds of commodities on a large scale, and I will barter the goods for grain in a timely manner, or ask the merchant to sell the goods, and then deduct the grain payment." ”
"Shaoyi doesn't need to worry about the food, not to mention that you and I are in a joint venture at the moment, and it is not a big deal for my firm to bear a little food. ”
Zhen Ning laughed: "Besides, the more than 20,000 Heavenly Ice and Snow Crystals that Shaoyi handed over to me will be split and sent to the Seven Hundred and Twenty-Nine Forts of Jiufu Eighty-One City in Zhongrong County for sale, although it can't be sold for a price of one thousand gold, but five hundred gold one is still easy to sell, and you can get tens of millions of gold."
"The price of the grain collected by our own grain store is only 40% of the market price, that is, only eight small gold cakes, and you can harvest a whid of grain from those small farmers. ”
He smiled hesitantly, showing a rare hint of the cunning of a businessman: "Besides, the prices of various grains are different, if my heart is dark, I will count the millet and weeds as the price of millet and rice, and I can earn a lot of money, so with this 10 million gold from Shaoyi, I can transport at least 20 million grains for you in the first batch, which is enough for you, 500,000 people, to eat for a long time."
Gu Yi was stunned, this was the first time he had seen Zhen Ning show the treacherous appearance of a businessman, but 20 million grains, even if you consider the population growth in batches, it is enough to eat for half a year.
After thinking about it, Gu Yi felt that before the various industries could make a profit, he still had to rely on his small workshop in the Empty Valley to make some money first, so he entrusted Ling Ning to get a batch of brine mud back to make salt, and if it was produced in large quantities, even if he sold it for a big gold later, he would have a lot of money.
"What do you want?"
The owner of Xiaoyi, who has been listening to business these days, suddenly shouted: "My Fengyi is a specialty of halocrystal."
