While Yaocheng was consuming massive resources to export faith to the outside world, Yancheng had been committed to urban infrastructure construction.
Today, the population of Yancheng has reached about 5,000, which is nearly half of Yaocheng’s.
In the city, libraries and nursing homes have become places frequented by little people.
Shops have become more complete, with the largest number of customers being pubs, followed by clothing stores and food stores.
There are a large number of galleys moored on the pier, and the expanded lighthouse is even taller. A low wall was built under the lighthouse, and a night watchman's house was built. It has long been a landmark building in Yancheng.
However, these are all achievements accumulated before.
I don’t know from which day the development of Yancheng suddenly slowed down.
Now the mayor of Yancheng has become Shang Li.
Lu Yao didn't see the Yulian Company anywhere, and finally found the name of the Yulian Company on the monument built in Yancheng to imitate Yaocheng.
"Yu Lian: The first mayor of Yancheng, the pioneer and leader of the city. He invented the galley and led everyone into the sea. He found paper from the gift of the gods, which lightened the weight of memory for everyone.
He invented arithmetic and units of weight, allowing transactions to have fair standards. He built libraries so that everyone could learn from the experience and knowledge of their predecessors.
He is a pathfinder who is always looking for change. He is the founder of Yancheng. We will miss him forever."
Without warning, Yulian passed away.
The Yu Lian in Lu Yao's memory is still the young man thinking about the water.
Yulian believed that boats are people's shoes. His earliest wish was to make shoes for everyone to walk farther in the water.
Lu Yao has adapted to the short life of a villain.
He just had some regrets.
It's a pity that Yulian is there.
He finally laid the foundation of Yancheng, but before he could further develop his talents, he died like this.
Lu Yao looked at the screen.
After the new mayor Shang Li talked with Commander Yan Geer, he rode past the monument and stopped.
A box appeared above Shang Li's head, which contained his thoughts.
"...I originally wanted to wait for you to build this prosperous city and then make a lot of money from you. Now I have suffered a big loss."
"I didn't make any money, but I had to shoulder the burden you left behind. This is the worst business I've ever suffered in my life. Did you do this on purpose..."
"Yulian..."
"It would be great if you were still alive."
Shang Li rode away.
Lu Yao locked his perspective on the top of his head.
Shang Li is now quite young and his hair has turned white.
The new mayor, tired of his travels, rushed all the way to Yao City and met alone with the prophet medicine spoon in the temple.
Shang Li went straight to the point with the prophetess: "Yu Lian drew a sketch of the textile invention during his lifetime. I hope to develop the cotton textile industry with Yaocheng."
Yao Shao said: "City cooperation is of course good. But since you have mastered cotton textile technology, why do you want to cooperate with us?"
"The lack of manpower disrupted our original plan."
Shang Li's words are concise and concise: "Many cotton growers, farmers and businessmen have begun to buy or board ships to sail to the north in search of gems and gold."
"People in Yancheng are adventurous and extremely interested in obtaining excess profits. Under normal circumstances, Yancheng can develop textile technology on its own... but now Yancheng can no longer complete it independently."
"Of course, there is another very important point."
"To be honest, the drawings left by Yulian are incomplete. I have searched all over Yancheng, but no one can understand Yulian's invention. Only you, who is also an inventor, may be able to complete it completely."
Yao Shao said: "How did Yu Lian die? Did he really die of illness?"
"..."
Shang Li was silent for a moment: "When Yulian was checking cotton in the cotton field, he was hit by a mad cow and died. When he was about to die, he forgave the child who was herding the cow. Such a way of death is not good for the citizens.
Announcement.”
"I see, it's such a pity."
The two city leaders quickly negotiated terms.
One-tenth of the income brought by textile technology to Yaocheng will be transferred to Yancheng for ten years.
Medicine Spoon received the drawings and immediately looked at them carefully.
"An amazing invention, really sophisticated and ingenious design..."
"It's such a pity that Mayor Yulian died."
A light bulb lit up above the prophetess's head, and she couldn't help but sigh.
A prompt appeared on Lu Yao's screen.
【Medicine Spoon invented the original waist machine.】
[The textile technology of Yaocheng has entered a new stage, and everyone’s knowledge has been slightly improved.]
Then, Yaocheng began to manufacture primitive waist machines.
This is a very simple textile tool, consisting of wooden sticks with twisted cotton and linen threads wrapped around it. Weavers use sticks to spin the threads into cloth, and it can be easily used by both men and women.
.
After many weavers appeared in Yaocheng, a large amount of cotton and linen cloth entered the market and became one of people's favorite and commonly used commodities.
Lu Yao discovered that this business profit was extremely shrewd.
I can't figure out the business benefits of the incomplete drawings, and they are just pieces of waste paper in my hands. But after cooperating with the Prophet's Spoon, I gained a large amount of stable income out of thin air. This is undoubtedly the role of the businessman's mind.
After receiving subsidies from Yaocheng, Shang Li quickly opened a shipyard at the dock, dedicated to manufacturing and repairing ships, and continued to make money from many treasure hunters at sea.
Then he worked non-stop and discussed cooperation with the White God prophet Doronunu, and began to make the White God ship's head statue and amulets.
The head statue and amulet of Shirakami are symbols of wealth and security, and they are personally certified by the prophet. Merchants and sailors flocked to them and paid for them one after another... Who doesn't want to be protected by the gods?
Business profit and innovation are not as good as Yulian.
But when it comes to making money, Yulian is far behind.
The economic base determines the superstructure. A wealthy city will always develop faster in all aspects. Shangli will give full play to its advantages and expertise.
Lu Yao thought there was nothing wrong with it.
He continues to be optimistic about business profits.
…
While recuperating, Lu Yao suddenly received a report from Isabel.
"Sir, heretical gods have been discovered."
On an island in the southern sea, Isabel found a statue of a god. This statue attracted some islanders to watch and settle down. They built many huts around the statue.
Lu Yao selected the coordinates on the map and overlooked the island.
The stone statue on the island is in a sitting position, and the face of the statue is blurred.
Click the mouse and the stone statue will display [Unknown God Statue].
Lu Yao felt excited.
The players here have been refreshed again!
Lu Yao was going to take his time this time, and not to be ruthless as soon as he came. He could even let the opponent grow for a while and gather more people, and then he would take over...
Lu Yao ate the apple cut over low heat and observed patiently in front of the screen.
But the more he looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Why does that statue have two heads on its shoulders?
