Everyone laughed. Luo Yu gently patted his daughter on the head and said, "Next topic."
Ling'er restrained her smile, frowned slightly and said, "Father, the Goring Plain has abundant water systems and the roads are mostly muddy. It is extremely inconvenient to transport materials between Yuling City, Xiaolin City, the small mining city and the fortress."
"Several gentlemen agree with the proposal to build roads, but now there are very few stone bricks left in the national treasury, and other resources are also consumed a lot, so we are temporarily unable to support it."
Luo Yu nodded and said: "This is a question. Stone bricks and steel are necessities for development. What do you think?"
Luo Yun asked curiously: "As for stone bricks, I have saved a lot. Ling'er, have you calculated how much is missing in total?"
"Five hundred million."
Ling'er sighed softly: "Auntie, you don't know that we not only need to build roads, but also build bridges. Five hundred million is already a conservative estimate."
"this……"
Luo Yun suggested: "Brother, why don't we blow up the mountain with cannonballs, and the stone bricks will come right away."
"I'm still thinking about it, but there aren't that many mountains on the plains. Even if there are, most of them are resource points and will be gone if they explode." Luo Yu said helplessly.
"You don't have it here, but I have it there!"
Luo Yun said: "Give me a few thousand rounds of artillery shells, and I'll let the tribes blow up the mountain. After cutting the stone bricks, there will be at least 200 million."
"We have family ties and can transport supplies."
"If you say so, then do it!"
Luo Yu said and looked at Zhang He and said: "Zhang He, from now on you will follow Yunyun to expand the territory, and those three thousand soldiers will be yours."
"Your first task is to blow up the mountain. You must cut out 200 million stones for me!"
"yes!"
Zhang He took over the task cautiously, with a determined expression that made people feel safe.
In the following time, everyone was discussing national construction, mainly focusing on the core issue of building a financial system.
With the help of Zhuge Liang, Xun Yu and others, and a large number of civil servants at their disposal, Luo Yu was ready to start collecting taxes after the currency system was established, so that the national treasury would be more full.
Everyone kept discussing until seven o'clock in the evening. Yunyun left with Zhang He, Tian Feng, 3,000 soldiers and 50 civilians. Her side must develop as soon as possible, with the help of civil and military personnel. Even if Yunyun is the boss Luo Yu, she will not
Worry about big problems.
At night, after Luo Yu had dinner with everyone, he walked on the city wall with Ling'er and Shuang'er.
The stars were scattered leisurely, and most of the residential areas in the city were lit with candles. There were many children laughing and playing on the streets, but there were very few adults.
Uzhi City has a population of nearly 300,000. Under the arrangements of Zhuge Liang and others, everyone usually concentrates on mining resources in quarries and mines, feeding war horses and animals in animal training grounds and prairie, and salvaging in small lakes.
aquatic resources.
Because the overall fertility of the territory is very high, it can be said that there are suitable planting resource spots everywhere. Now it is not only the planting areas in the city, but also a large number of fertile fields in the south of the city for people to cultivate. Around the territory, there are patches of woods and bamboo forests.
When green areas are built, people will need to take care of them.
In addition, the sanitation inside and outside the city needs to be cleaned, and the energy center, water source center, temple of the Starlight Goddess, etc. need to be taken care of and looked after. The 3,100 square kilometers of land in Uzhi City can absorb at least one million labor forces.
At this stage, not only do we not think there are too many people, but we feel that the population is far from enough.
Luo Yu asked curiously: "Is the reconnaissance battalion responsible for the current security in the city? How is the situation?"
Shuang'er replied: "There are no incidents of petty theft, but because the common people are strong, they occasionally fight with each other. Once they fight, it is easy to destroy the construction in the city. A few days ago, two common people fought and even destroyed a building.
The warehouse collapsed."
Luo Yu's mouth twitched. The internal buildings had no shields. The people's attributes were so high that their destructive power was indeed revealed...
After hesitating for a while, Luo Yu said: "Let's do this. Set up the post of admiral of the four gates and establish a public security bureau to be responsible for rectifying the public security issues in several cities."
"Who do you think is better for this position?"
"Jushou, he is more suitable in terms of ability and personality." Ling'er made a suggestion.
Luo Yu nodded and said: "Okay, tomorrow we will send an order to Jushou to serve as the admiral, and then to Xun Yu to serve as the deputy general manager of administration and concurrently as the deputy secretary-general of the group. For the time being, he will assist Kong Ming in managing political affairs."
Ling'er responded, and after talking for a while, Luo Yu asked on a whim: "What is the matching rate of single men and women in the territory recently? Are you having a good relationship?"
"this……"
Ling'er said helplessly: "Father, because of the long working hours, young men and women rarely have time to fall in love, and less than a hundred people get married..."
"This is not okay."
Luo Yu frowned and said: "If you don't get married, no one will have children. Without children, the entire territory will have no future, and the people will not completely feel at ease."
"Ling'er, if I change my working hours to nine to five, how many gaps will there be in each position?"
"Nine to five..."
Ling'er counted on his fingers and said: "Now everyone works sixteen hours a day, and the territory is operating normally. If an eight-hour working system is implemented, the population will at least double."
"By the way, father, there's something coming up below."
"School now ends at four o'clock in the afternoon, and all parents go out to work. There is no one to take care of the children. The older ones are fine, but the younger ones are prone to problems. Principal Jiang suggested that if there are families with children, it is best for both parents to be alone.
Get off work early."
Luo Yu nodded and said: "Well, this is a good suggestion, it's accurate."
These words made both Ling'er and Shuang'er slightly stunned. This seemed to be different from Luo Yu's usual style of dealing with things.
Seeing the second daughter's doubts, Luo Yu smiled lightly and said: "Children are the future, and mental health is also very important. Being without parents for a long time will affect their healthy growth."
"Although the territory focuses on production efficiency, everything still has to make way for the children."
The two girls looked at each other after hearing this, and both nodded in agreement.
Ling'er said: "If you include this part of the labor gap, an increase of 65% will be needed to maintain the normal operation of the territory's labor force."
"There is still a shortage of people..."
Luo Yu touched his chin. Whether it was for labor or to add faith points to the goddess, more people were needed. Luo Yu couldn't help but look north.
There was a faint light flashing in his eyes.
At this time, Shuang'er beside him took out the communication chip, checked it, and immediately reported: "Master, there was news just now that there was another coup in the Nuge County tribe to the east, and the newly appointed chief and the coup makers died together.
