Lu Yao transformed the wonder and named it the Council of the City-State Alliance, and the apostolic mark was restored to 3.

The above-ground building emits a faint white light.

……

[City-State Alliance Council]: Here, the Yao people established a city alliance based on the city-state responsibility system, and the Yao people in different regions lived in the same way, and the allied city-states followed the same system and laws. This groundbreaking alliance also opened up a new future for the Yao people.

In the city where the council is located, all people have +1 popularity, and the chance of people being born in various professions in the city increases.

……

Like a ghost beacon, the councils of the alliance have been established in every city of the alliance, radiating every member of the city-state alliance.

Lu Yao patiently observed for a while.

The emergence of the city-state alliance was an immediate change to Treecrown City, Elven Village, and Strait Docks.

On the west side of the canopy city in the Valley of the Gods of the Eastern Continent, a wide and flat road was built.

The trade route crosses the mountains that surround the valley, crosses the newly built bridge between the Valley of the Gods and the Eastern Continent, and continues onwards to the seaside docks, where several merchant ships are waiting.

These road projects were all funded and contributed by Yancheng, and the cooperation of Tree Canopy City was able to be quickly implemented.

Canopy City produces pine nuts, timber, woven goods and fruits.

There is also a local material that has attracted a lot of attention from merchants.

[Canopy City discovered: pine resin]

The roses from the Pinkerman Rose Garden were exported to Yancheng through the newly opened trade routes, from which potatoes, wheat, metal tools, pottery and glass were exchanged.

Skilled at planting trees and gathering trees, the paraphernalia encapsulated nuts and fruits in glass and pottery, allowing them to be stored longer and sold on steamboats.

At this point, Tree Canopy City was connected to the Western Continent and became a raw material supplier.

……

And in the Southern New World, the elves of the elven village learned to keep bees and make honey.

Two eras passed, and they cultivated a special kind of small tree, and the fruit of the tree was dried to become a spice.

[The elf has discovered: dried fragrant fruit.] 】

Honey, dried fragrant fruits, and all kinds of mushrooms in the forest are the main commodities exported by the elven village, and due to the high price of honey and spices, the elven village quickly became rich.

The humble fence was transformed into a fashionable green rose façade, a library and theater were added to the village, a small bathhouse was built, and two steam-drawn carriages were purchased to nourish the elves' daily lives.

……

The Strait Wharf is a settlement attached to the dragon's nest, with a large floating population, but there are only 300 permanent residents, which is indeed the scale of a small village.

Since the departure of the Northern Templars, taverns, inns, and docks have been the main industries.

As the earthworms exported from the Dragon's Nest became saturated, and the Pasha focused on cultivating the Dragonborn Ranch, the economic pillar of the Straits Docks had long been crumbling, so the locals simply embraced Salt City.

In the trade network built by the alliance, it became a centralized harbor connecting the north and the south.

The merchant ships of the alliance all docked and replenished at the Strait Wharf, headed north to Wuda City and Crystal City, and south to Yancheng, the economic center of the Western Continent.

Relying on the volume of trade between the new and old twin cities, the Strait Docks suddenly regained its vitality.

The entire alliance system has traces of the former twin cities.

It's just that the twin cities in the alliance have become Salt City and Crystal City.

One in the south and one in the north, the two core cities supported the basic framework of the entire trade route, allowing trade between cities to flow efficiently and quickly.

It took Lu Yao a little time to fully understand these ways.

He wondered, who actually conceived the alliance strategy?

Lu Yao asked the blood knight sitting in Yancheng.

Nevid replied, "My lord, it's the prophet Shibao and the mayor Botu. ”

Lu Yao glanced at the edge of the screen.

[April 22 of the Yaoli calendar of the Huoqi era]

Shi Bao is already a frail old man who may die at any time, and how can Botu, who is much older than him, still alive?

He found out that the mayor of YC was already a ghost, and he had put on his ghost armor and was still busy in the council.

According to the World Backstage, Botu was invited back by the Prophet Shi Bao and the City Council after his death.

Botu resigned several times, and then he was re-elected as mayor of YC, and he was also the first ghost to return to his original post after his death.

Judging from the results, the parliament did not invite Botu back, and there would be no current union.

The framework of the alliance was proposed by Botu.

He believes that for Yancheng to develop further, it is not enough to stimulate the residents in the city to buy bonds, but also needs more outsiders. Yancheng has a large number of commodities that need to be dumped and digested by foreign countries, and Yancheng needs to expand foreign exchanges and cooperation.

The development of Yancheng cannot be limited to the city, and those forgotten and marginalized settlements are the most important partners and future allies that Yancheng should strive for at this stage.

Those places are desperate for development due to their relatively backward economic conditions, and as long as they are persuaded to integrate them into the Yancheng system, a larger trade cycle can be formed.

This idea comes from the Fifth Dreadnought Empire in the past.

The old imperial capital Crystal City had a similar plan.

Through the main road to form a circle, different circles include towns and villages, a central city can radiate a large number of settlements, and the collection and dispatch of raw materials and manpower from different places.

After the prototype of the plan was formed, the prophet Shi Bao deduced and calculated it mathematically.

This step is crucial.

Shi Bao brought mathematicians, senior businessmen, engineers, and captains to calculate in detail the direct benefits that alliances could bring to different cities.

They gave a detailed calculation method and the premise of the calculation, including transportation costs, maritime risks, labor costs, trade cycles, circulation losses, and so on.

Even people who don't understand mathematics, as long as they look at it from beginning to end, can intuitively understand that the integration brought about by the city-state alliance will bring great rewards to every city.

The mathematically constructed framework of deduction turned into the most convincing invitation, which made several settlements, including Crystal City, quickly agree to join.

The end result turned out that the participation of mathematics in decision-making was very successful.

Since then, mathematics has been widely used in the city-state alliance, and mathematicians have become the key talents sought after by the city-states. Mathematics has officially entered everyone's eyes and has become a new field as hot as theology, medicine, and engineering......

Lu Yao took a sip of hot tea in his thermos cup and prepared to go out for a run.

It's still important to keep exercising when you're sitting in front of your computer for a long time—even the committee's official website keeps reminding you.

He just put on his sneakers, and a prompt pops up in the interface.

[Jimmy the Yeti is calling you.] 】

Snowman?

Lu Yao clicked on the tooltip.

The screen jumps to the top of the snowman's head.

"Lord God, Jimmy has taken the liberty of disturbing you, because the first wurm has appeared in the dragon's lair, and Jimmy wants to tell you the good news!"

Jimmy raised his arms and walked excitedly in place, his red velvet hat swinging from side to side.

Lu Yao looked left and right and found the target in the dragon's lair.

It was a dragon-like creature with two long, curved horns. It was pitch black, with two forks at the tips of its horns, and a thick and majestic body, with wings spread out on its back, and purple-red stripes on its dragon wings.

Lu Yao was overjoyed.

This progress is fast enough, and the wurm has been cultivated.

Pasha also came out to report the good news: "Lord God, Pasha has cultivated wurm, and there are wurms in the dragon's nest!" ”

A smug expression of bared teeth appeared on the head of the Dragon's head of the Dark Sun: "Lord God, Pasha has a small request. ”

"Isn't the White Castle imitating dragons with metal and glass? Pasha wanted to bring the wurm over to show them the power of the dragons. ”

Lu Yao thought to himself, it was a dragon or a worm that had to be pulled out for a walk.

Look at the quality of both sides.
