Chapter 114: I Don't Know the Importance of Firewood and Rice (Second Update)
"Yes, it looks like the city lord's urban planning ability is not bad, everything looks in order!"
Lecturer Ding was busy for a while, and he still had a sense of accomplishment.
In fact, he is not a high-end player in urban planning, and he used to play similar games, often repairing the lines like twisting hemp, and only building matchboxes in construction games.
However, after all, the game "God's Forsaken City" already has a ready-made city base, and although there is a lot of empty space, the general partition has been done, so even if it is messed up, it will not be bad.
Just then, an event happened to be completed.
[Food Problem Solved! ใ
[You generously gave some of your stock of grain to the hungry people in the city, although it was all old and even some moldy food, most of the hungry people were still grateful for it. ใ
[This has made the people's satisfaction with you increase slightly, and in the future, a few of these hungry people may become a help for you to develop your city.] Of course, it can also become a burden that drags down the city. ใ
This is the prompt screen for the completion of the event, and on the right side of the prompt screen, there is also a prompt box for the "City Lord's Suggestion Manual".
ใCastle Lord's Suggestion Handbookใ
[The voice of the people and the decision of the castle lord]
As the lord of the city, you will frequently hear the various demands of the people, and your advisers will also provide you with various solutions. But keep in mind that people often want the quickest and best solution, and they don't think about the cost โ in most cases, it's clearly beyond your reach. ใ
[As the lord of the city, you have to weigh the big picture and make the best judgment, without having to agree to all the demands of the people. There are even times when you can just go your own way and solve the problem exactly what you want. ใ
In fact, the first problem that Lecturer Ding solved was the "shelter", but the shelter had not yet been built at this time.
"Food problem" is the second problem, but Lecturer Ding still chose the "golden mean" and took out a batch of old and moldy grain to relieve the victims, and his satisfaction increased slightly.
Lecturer Ding didn't care, he planned to continue to deal with other affairs.
However, after turning off these two interfaces, Lecturer Ding suddenly noticed that the little girl in the City Lord's Mansion had an exclamation mark on her head.
"Huh? Isn't the learning task not over yet? โ
Lecturer Ding moved the mouse and clicked the exclamation mark, and a new interface popped up.
Father, why do you give moldy grain to the hungry? ใ
[The hungry are human beings, and they should also enjoy the most basic rights. Not to mention that these foods can make them sick or induce more serious consequences. ใ
[I think you should at least provide them with food that hasn't spoiled, or, if you don't have time to deal with these chores, I can do it for you.] ใ
[(Natsumi's favorability has decreased.] ๏ผใ
"Huh? What's going on!
"Didn't you study in the City Lord's Mansion? Study hard, study hard, what do you care about me giving out food!
"Besides, if you don't give the hungry moldy food, do you give fresh food? I don't even have enough fresh food to eat!
"I've given you food, clothing, and study, but you lost your favorability because you gave some moldy food to irrelevant hungry people?
"How unreasonable!"
Lecturer Ding was speechless, it was like he was playing a game, and suddenly a strong mouth king popped up and said, "Didn't you kill you just now?" โ
As a gamer, what he hates most is this kind of stuff that teaches people to do things.
What's more, in Lecturer Ding's opinion, Xia Mi is completely inappropriate and ignorant of the price of firewood and rice, and this favorability is completely unreasonable.
"Forget it, after all, you are a child who does not understand the world, and I don't have the same knowledge as you."
Lecturer Ding didn't think much about it for the time being, and directly clicked out this prompt box, anyway, it's just the little girl's personal opinion, just drop a little favorability, and then there is a way to make it back.
The game progresses.
Lecturer Ding didn't realize that the cultivation of the little girl Xia Mi was also one of the core gameplay of this game, and his focus was still on the development and construction of the city.
Make the best use of limited resources to deal with a variety of emergencies.
And as time goes by, the problems of Godforsaken City become more and more numerous, and many of them happen in chains!
For example, a sudden change in the weather will cause a decrease in food production, and the reduction in food production will cause the hungry people in the surrounding villages to flee, and the villagers who accept the fleeing will further consume the food stored in the city, resulting in not enough food in the God's forsaken city.
The rich began to raise the price of food, and even if Lecturer Ding used the most drastic means and decrees to control the price of food, it could not change the fact that people were starving to death every day.
Therefore, Lecturer Ding decided to adopt more stringent measures to forcibly levy grain and ration food.
However, this caused the satisfaction of the people to continue to decline, the hungry people began to riot, and the church began to take this opportunity to preach "this is divine punishment" and began to encourage the people to do some radical acts.
Leaving starving corpses untended to induce the plague, which spread to panic and further exacerbate the lack of manpower and chaos in the church......
Lecturer Ding demolished the east wall and repaired the west wall, and he was so busy that his head was bigger three times.
Of course, these problems are not always there.
The good news is that every once in a while, these internal issues are put on hold, and they may not need to be resolved after a while.
The bad news is that it's because there's going to be a war!
Every once in a while, wars break out in the God-forsaken City, sometimes with the Holy Cult outside the city claiming to be coming to the door against the infidels, sometimes the rogue raids, and sometimes the hungry people and the church rebellion within.
Whenever war breaks out, the game's internal affairs system is put on hold for the time being.
The inhabitants of the city fled to their homes and closed their doors, and the market in the trade area was stopped, so Lecturer Ding could only control the city lord and the garrison soldiers to meet the invaders.
After the end of the war, some problems that were not easy to solve will be solved automatically, for example, some hungry people died in the city before, and if the corpses were left unattended, the plague would soon spread.
As for the corpses, the guards in charge of the guards were to dispose of them? Or is the money left to the poor? Or just grab the strong man and deal with it?
Players can really fall into a phobia of choice.
But now, the city is full of corpses!
Naturally, there is no need to make a choice, everyone has to go together, otherwise the corpse will be slow to be transported and the plague will soon break out, and everyone will have to be finished together.
After the victory in the war, there will be a lot of internal affairs related to dealing with the aftermath of the battlefield. These internal affairs may overpower some of the previous ones.
Moreover, the people's satisfaction with the castle lord will rebound.
At this point, Lecturer Ding somewhat understands why the history textbook says that "when the internal contradictions of the country are too big, they will start wars to transfer the contradictions".
From the perspective of a ruthless ruler, the root cause of many problems is that there are too many people.
If you can eliminate some people in a way that does not shake the foundation of your own rule, it is really a way to alleviate the contradictions.
Lecturer Ding was busy all the time, although he was a little embarrassed, the population of the city had declined, and the supplies had also decreased, but he had barely solved several major challenges at present, and the game could continue to be played.
But what makes him a little painful is that no matter what kind of affairs he deals with, this little girl Natsumi will put forward different opinions, and her favorability will drop every time!
Don't let the victims enter the city, and the favor will be lost;
suppress riots and lose favorability;
In the severe cold conditions, the people were not provided with sufficient heating conditions, and the favorability was lost;
Even if you don't save some small animals when you set off on the "Animal Migration" event, your friendship will still drop!
Until now, even Lecturer Ding himself didn't know how much goodwill this little girl had left for him.
But considering that he is the adoptive father of the little girl, and he eats and drinks to serve her, even if his favorability drops a little, there shouldn't be any big problem, right?
"Okay, since you like to be the king of the mouth, then you go out of the mountain!
"I happen to have received so much education, so I should have a little governance ability."
Lecturer Ding glanced at Xia Mi, the little girl in the city lord's mansion.
From the very beginning of the game, Lecturer Ding has been arranging various educational activities for Xia Mi, so that she can learn knowledge, and her living standard has also been pulled to the highest.
Although her specific attributes are not visible at the moment, her avatar has changed, from the thin and pitiful little girl at the beginning to a healthy, cheerful, and determined girl.
Just this avatar is painted.,Put it in other games.,That's got to be a heroine!
Of course, it should be counted in this game.
Although Xia Mi had been singing against her before, Lecturer Dante felt that she should be released to try.
After all, if she doesn't know the price of firewood and rice, what if after letting her be in charge of these specific affairs, she realizes the difficulty of her adoptive father and repents?
It's not impossible.
After all, the official said that the game "God Forsaken City" also uses fake-ai technology, although because of the game mechanism, this technology perception is not strong, but as long as it is used, there should be infinite possibilities.
