"I seem to be changing the world, at least, I have changed my hometown"

When changes appear in front of him, even if he is still walking alone on the street, grilling skewers in one hand and Coke in the other, Lu Ping'an must admit that he seems to have changed a lot.

The ancient city is expanding rapidly, this is the general trend, and it is the desire of many people who hope for the rise of the city, but it is Lu Ping'an who really turns it into an act.

"I didn't expect it to be so fast"

Just a 37% increase in GDP may not be intuitive, but when converted into a "treatment" that everyone can access, it is obvious.

"The average salary went from 1,900 last year to 2,700 this year"

This increase can no longer be described as an exaggeration, it is simply an explosion.

As a quasi-third-tier city, even in 1999, when prices were low, wages in the ancient city were low in Changpingzhou, which was also the result of the overflow of no industry and educational institutions.

It is already a well-known problem that high-quality graduates are difficult to find employment and cannot be retained every year, and if you can get double the pay if you leave, why not leave.

And now this level of "average" skyrocketing means that most working people are actually getting an explosion of doubling their monthly wages.

"It's hard to calculate the average asset, but based on the sampling, the increase is more than 30%."

This is still a one-year increase, but if you look closely, you will find that these improvements are mainly "real estate".

Although later generations will feel uncomfortable when it comes to the skyrocketing real estate prices, in the previous environment of low housing prices in third-tier cities and high per capita living area, the increase in "real estate value" means that most citizens have eaten this part of the dividend.

In the final analysis, it was the arrival of the terrible outlanders that greatly increased the value of local housing, and the average rent doubled in one year, which was the result of active official intervention and suppression.

In addition, it is natural that the "housing prices" have skyrocketed, and the sampling data of individuals in the Lu Ping An team is just the real estate left on the earth, and the "total assets" of each person have at least doubled.

This is a new urban development similar to another world, and the first to benefit is actually the local residents, most of whom have at least one house of their own, of course, there are also those who have suffered from it, but in terms of the overall trend, it is only a few.

And because of the rising "wages", the attitude of the locals towards life has become significantly positive.

The most chicken thief is that the local government has introduced a series of "guarantee people" systems.

That is, if an outsider wants to work formally in the local area, he needs a family with an ancient city hukou to provide him with a certain degree of "guarantee", and this guarantee is "reviewed" every three months, which is a system similar to a work visa.

But in fact, this is a "ground rent", even if the family is poorly mixed, it can rely on "selling the hukou" to steadily make a fortune from foreign migrant workers.

It can be said that in the past year, everyone's life in the ancient city has changed, and it is a great improvement direction

"Yo, hero of the ancient city."

And people who knew each other, seeing that Lu Ping'an was safe, also made a joke.

This is actually a meme, the death fight with the Austeers has been repeatedly publicized on TV, and a local monument to the soldiers has been erected.

As the commander of that war, Lu Ping'an was naturally the focus of propaganda, and there was even a time when posters were posted everywhere. He is still alive, and the main reason why he was not erected as a sculpture.

This is not only because of his military exploits, which is actually false and troublesome in the eyes of the superiors, but more importantly, his "killing the rule-level" results, which is a guarantee of strength and a proof of providing safe shelter.

"We also have rule-level combat power protection on our side, so everyone can live and develop safely."

The violent force on the side of the order gives local order and stability to the top of the world just by existing.

In fact, the trend of the ancient city is directly related to Lu Ping'an in all aspects.

Without the one between him and Chrissy, the city was almost finished out twice.

Later, the Ottos brought back most of the core combat forces, and captured the excellent "overseas mining area" of the "Green Planet".

This series of "results" has opened the door to the most preferential development strategies and policies for the ancient city, so as to bring wealth and benefits.

And now life is progressing so fast, in the final analysis, it is the incremental dividends brought by outsiders and new industries.

The stable development of industry is the result of the joint creation of local aliens and officials, but it is still an "external condition", and local security also needs sufficient deterrence to guarantee, and the foreign wars broadcast by official television every day are the best deterrent to foreigners.

Wang Xi'er's factions have actually bet long ago, and now they are all smashed here, because of the development opportunities brought by the green planet, as well as the "resource reserves" of the entire outer planet.

Lu Ping'an's "reputation" exists, it brings a large amount of foreign investment liquidity to the local ancient city, and safe and stable development has always made them their first pursuit.

It is inconceivable that there are foreign investors, new technologies from other regions (integrating local technologies), mining resources from other regions, and demographic dividends from outside the world.

Every time Lu and his party fight, they can say that they are for themselves, but every time they win, whether it is reputation or actual results, they really give back to their hometown.

Compared to these massive benefits, his personal taxes are irrelevant.

"No wonder, my battle, they care so much" If Lu Ping'an really dies in battle, I'm afraid it will be unbearable pain for the entire ancient city.

The development zone does have a vague rule-level seat, but the more this form, the more it needs the checks and balances of the local powerhouse, and it is not only Wang Xi'er's clansmen who are ready to move.

And a social order supported by sufficient force is the guarantee of economic vitality and an efficient market.

Walking through the streets, you feel a completely different atmosphere from the lifeless atmosphere of this year, the atmosphere where the whole city is moving, and everyone is motivated and energized.

The momentum of the economy and development is on the upswing, most people can benefit, the general situation is hopeless, and everyone is naturally conservative and silent.

Unknowingly, Lu Ping'an discovered that he was probably already responsible for the future of this third-tier city

"This thunder, it's really unexploding."

Now this "automobile city" can be said to be dragged by the "boat" project of the development zone, the employment of the "automobile" system may not be much, but there are too many industrial chains up and down, and there may be hundreds of thousands of direct or indirect employees and their families.

If, according to Wang Xi'er, there is really a deficit or even bankruptcy, what will happen to those bankrupt "automobile cities", the ancient city with more foreigners and abundant martial virtues here will only be even worse.

From the very beginning, the officials of the ancient city have been gambling big, and they have made it snowball by betting on all the opportunities of the times.

But now, they won the bet in the early stage, and Snowball was won by their bet, but .

"They didn't expect the snowball to roll too big to stop."

At this moment, Lu Ping'an was a little numb.

He understands why policymakers are in such a hurry, and that the current "happy life" is brought about by high growth, let alone stopping or regressing, and that slow growth in the next few years may bring about economic and social crises.

"I'm an ordinary person, why should I worry about this?"

In fact, Lu Ping'an can be completely ignored, he can do whatever he wants, even if it is really thunderous, it is not impossible to change cities to live, and it is really not possible to live in a foreign land.

But

With a little effort, you might be able to make it."

The things he has walked along the way, what he has seen, what he owes, what he has given, perhaps, and those smiles that are worth his little more effort.
