In the past year, the Airanhill Empire has built 2,000 kilometers of subways. These subways are distributed in the prosperous areas of Airanhill, including Siris, Mayne, Dragonfall City, etc.
In the past two years, Ireland has renovated more than 20,000 kilometers of sewers. The sewer system in Serris City is as complex as a giant spider web.
This is no joke, this is a truly great project. Through the construction of these underground projects, Ireland has laid a large number of cables and built a huge Internet infrastructure project.
With the support of this project, the Eiland Hill Empire quickly established a wired network, and coupled with the wifi network, the Internet construction was basically completed.
Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg in the information construction of Ireland. In fact, judging from the size of the entire empire, these already terrifying cable laying projects are actually far from enough.
Due to shortages of funds, insufficient manpower and other reasons, many second- and third-tier cities can only tinker with the original infrastructure and can only achieve the minimum standard that is barely usable.
For example, in the city in front of us, its pipelines were hastily buried during the previous wire laying, and are actually outdated.
This kind of cement pipeline is too thin, and various problems will occur when threading it, so we have to have children crawl along the pipeline to thread it.
Similar work exists in many second-tier cities. After all, these cities do not have the spacious underground pipeline systems that can carry cars like Serris.
As a result, many such places can only allow thin children to perform similar threading tasks, gradually expanding the network cable coverage area.
This is actually a good thing, because second-tier cities at least still have the dedicated underground pipelines that were previously buried. In many edge cities, most still use the same sewer system from the past.
In most of these post-occupied cities, even wires and pipelines have not been laid, and in many places only outdated facilities such as telephone poles can be used. This is why the decent contractor just now regrets that the south cannot use them.
Reasons for child labor threading.
Because many cities in the South do not even have universal power supply, and there is no need for high-end products such as telephone lines and network cables.
Like the army, the development of Ireland Hill is also abnormal and time-traveling. In the army, World War II and future weapons coexist, and the civil administration system also coexists with advanced and backward.
The most advanced Ailansheris star ring has spread across the entire sky, and the most backward Ailansil Empire-occupied area does not even have electricity.
An ordinary family in Seris City has even used a high-end computer with Core chips. The school in Veronsa may still be using Pentium series computers, and in Kashyyyk District, even radios may be rare...
In the same field of farming, some areas may have been fully mechanized, with airplanes spraying pesticides and tractors automatically harvesting; but in some places, farming can only rely on human labor, and the efficiency gap can even reach a hundred times.
The same is true for economic development. The average monthly income in some places can even reach 200 gold coins, and the monthly income in some places may only be 5 gold coins.
The territory of the empire is getting bigger and bigger, and it has reached the point where the development speed cannot keep up. A large amount of land, or many border areas, has been occupied for several months, and the state is still similar to that at the end of the war.
The people in the marginal areas only waited for peace, but did not wait for the leap-forward development of Ireland.
Even though Chris and his Minister of Economy, Industry, and Finance have spent all their money, there is no way to immediately improve the infrastructure in these areas.
After all, a large number of core areas are still struggling to develop, and the shortage of personnel has not been fundamentally improved from the beginning of the establishment of the Airanhill Empire until now.
At the end of Ireland's 6th year, the relevant ministers submitted to Chris the total number of construction personnel needed for Ireland's 7th year.
It was estimated that Ireland would need to train 10 million new construction workers in seven years, which was barely enough.
In the 7th year of the lovely Landseer, Chris annexed the new puppet empire, and the elves were included in it. They established a vast territory in the demon world and expanded the territory by two-thirds. However, the construction workers trained in the same period barely reached
4 million people…
In other words, Ireland's actual need for new construction talents was less than 20 million. As a result, there was a huge gap of 4 million new construction talents, which directly led to the slow construction of the occupied area.
This is no longer a problem that can be solved with money and technology. This is directly the bottleneck of the talent gap. If the population cannot be expanded immediately, the development of the Eilanhill Empire will only slow down.
To this end, the Airanhill Empire has thought of many ways, such as manufacturing a large number of magic balls of knowledge, cultivating technical talents, and building various schools.
In fact, the Elanshir Empire even employs a large number of orcs to do physical work. Orcs can now be seen in many mines and quarries.
It is precisely because of this that so many businessmen want the empire to stop killing demons. In their view, killing demons is not as good as enslaving demons. Letting those damn demons engage in high-risk jobs such as mining is more in line with Eiland Hill.
The interests of the empire.
…
Sitting in his seat, Chris closed the second memorandum from Waggron. In this memorial, Waggron requested for the second time to retain some demons and let them serve as slaves to continue to serve the Eilanhir Empire.
Work.
Although in the magical world, these demons may be hidden dangers, in the demon world, these demons can very well supplement the shortage of personnel in the Elanthir Empire.
After all, there are countless mineral deposits here, including some radioactive ores. If these mineral deposits were mined by regular miners in Elland Hill, the cost would be too expensive.
But if you let demon slaves mine it, there is almost no cost. As long as these demons are provided with food, they must work to survive.
In Wageron's view, this is also the significance of this expeditionary battle to establish a colony for the empire, feed back the Empire of Elanshir, and allow the local economy to develop faster.
"You hesitated." Andrea, the Elf Grand Duke, noticed Chris's confusion and said, "I know you have read three similar memorials in the past few days."
Chris put Vagron's memorial aside, sighed and said: "The children born in the year when Elanshir was founded have just entered elementary school... I need at least 3 billion people to fill my empire.
, but I only have more than 700 million..."
As he spoke, he pointed to the memorials that suggested keeping some demons: "They want me to keep 300 million or even 500 million demons to use first, what do you think?"
