Everyone has their own position, and so does every government in every region.
The central government needs to consider the development of the entire country and even the entire race. Changping Prefecture is taking over the tasks of its superiors while doing its own development.
With just that super tower, as a transportation hub to the outside world, the state capital is already ahead in all aspects.
In the new era, foreign resources, talents, and technologies are flowing in an endless stream, but no matter how many "foreign treasures" there are, they have their own flow directions.
Don’t worry about few but worry about inequality; don’t worry about few but worry about the abundance of others. Naturally, each city will continue to compete for it.
Wealthy states have several or even a dozen super cities. Second-tier states like Changping Prefecture, apart from their relatively large area, are the only ones that can be called a metropolis. Changping City is the only one.
Countries compete for gods and external resources on a global and even extraterritorial scale, states compete with each other at the domestic level, and within each state, cities are also fiercely fighting.
Apart from its long history and rich ancestors, the ancient city does not have any outstanding advantages.
"Our education is an advantage, but coinciding with the reform of the entire education system, several of our private universities were forced to merge with official universities. In the short term, Changping Prefecture is preparing two super universities specifically for explorers, directly parachuted into the first-tier universities.
Rating. Despicable! What a dirty method, they want to suck blood from the whole state again like before!"
Lu Ping'an nodded and casually said "despicable Changping people", and then listened to the other person scolding him for three minutes, about policy discrimination, about withholding policies and special funds handed down by his superiors, and about finally getting things done.
The paper transfer order transfers the talents on your side.
Among the outsiders' talents, some have unique supernatural system powers, some bring local resources and treasures, as well as various technologies and knowledge from foreign lands. This is more exciting than the reform era when the country opened its doors.
many.
The risks are high, but the returns are also high. If a technology is successfully localized, a factory can be established, a fire is made, and taxes are paid, the ancient city will really recover.
But why do you want others to come? With the lowest infrastructure in Changping Prefecture, and the top three housing prices and population density, Lu Ping'an himself is not very optimistic about the development prospects of this old industrial town. It is too old.
The proportion of the population has increased the cost of reform in all aspects.
".This is indeed an opportunity."
Just because he is not optimistic about the development of the ancient city does not mean that Lu Pingan does not value this opportunity.
His "trading place" is actually an incomplete Kingdom of God, a secret realm that can be moved, but in the eyes of others, it is a specialty of the ancient city. Once it appears in other areas, it will naturally attract prying eyes.
When the business is still weak in the early stage, it is necessary to base operations on local businesses, but small places also have their own troubles. Visitors from leeks are limited to the ancient city, and some of them cannot get on the market.
This is an official publicity opportunity and an opportunity for the official to endorse your safety and reliability. Although in theory there are no traps in the land of rules, it takes time to build up a sense of security. The ancient city officials are really anxious.
"Changping has taken at least 90% of the first wave of profits, and there are not enough cities left in the state to share it. We don't have any big companies here, nor do we have a church headquarters."
For outsiders, choosing a city to settle in is nothing more than treatment and the surrounding environment.
Those cities that can provide them with comfortable living, large-scale earning and job opportunities, and better educational opportunities are naturally the best choices.
But all of this is not as good as the opportunity to improve one's abilities. For professionals, that is equal to life, and for most supernatural systemists, it is at least equal to the opportunity to obtain more resources.
Lu Ping'an's "Transaction Column" has always been highly rated in the city, but due to the lack of life points, the transaction volume is sparse, and its effectiveness is not sufficient.
Now, with a wave of magic plants and animals successfully redeeming points, many special service personnel within the government are eager to "consume."
After a round of evaluation by professionals, the trading place, as a "specialty of the ancient city", is really likely to attract more outsiders. The best thing is that this is a long-term process, and outsiders need to save and spend their lives.
Points naturally stay in the ancient city.
As long as it is guided properly, it can also play a role in purifying social atmosphere. Officials in the ancient city are unhappy about the illegal area of the steam factory.
There is enough temptation in the first place, and the recent "orc-like service" makes it even more convincing.
The ancient city does not have much time to hesitate. Each round of exploration will bring new directions. Once the general direction is set, it is unrealistic to change it.
"Anyway, if you want to open a deal, it will be difficult for us to stop it. Why not cooperate and achieve a win-win situation for each other."
"As a price for official recommendation, you need to strengthen your own supervision, especially the most important illegal East Asian currency transactions."
"We hope to send dedicated personnel to stay here for a long time, at least to clear out some wanted criminals from outside."
"When you close or open, you must notify us later. Just notify us in advance to facilitate arrangements."
This person came specifically to test Lu Ping'an and his party and set conditions.
In a sense, the silence of the trading place during this period itself is regarded as a kind of friendliness towards the official.
The trading place itself can be regarded as a local resource for high-end people, and in theory there is no problem in entering the brochure.
"I agree, of course I agree, but this matter is not something that can be settled so easily."
Lu Pingan did not rush to agree. On the contrary, he seemed a little unconcerned, and then said he would go back and think about it.
Such a major matter is destined not to be settled in a single meeting. Both parties will evaluate each other, and the special service team is expected to have a new reward task - "Find the person behind the transaction place."
But since the interests of both parties are consistent, there is a high chance that they will eventually cooperate.
After seeing off the two-headed wolf, Lu Ping'an was naturally very busy.
This is an opportunity, but it is also a challenge, just
"There is no reason to refuse." With huge benefits, it is impossible for Lu Ping'an and his party to refuse.
".Increase your strength, that is the foundation of everything."
The official promised to provide a certain amount of force protection, but on the one hand, Lu Ping An knew that the official level of the ancient city was really at that level. On the other hand, Lu Ping An, who was worried that the information would be leaked, did not dare to ask for this kind of reinforcements.
"Make a plan and make more arrangements. For example, if there is a powerful intruder, for example, if the ancient city official changes to a radical leader, we not only have to face the current friendliness, but also consider the future. If we become bigger
Yes, the possibility that the authorities will come to us to collect taxes must also be taken into account.”
"Me? My strength is the upper limit of the courtyard. If you are busy, I will come back."
After entrusting these details to his "teammates" and giving Catherine a big overtime package, Lu Ping'an ran away again.
