Chapter 592 Heart and Aorta
However, Xia Xiaoxiang's eyes lit up, and she discovered that Qin had an incomparable advantage. As long as she took advantage of it, she could definitely defeat the princess.
But after listening to her suggestion, Qin beat her up and forbade her to bring up any related topics, which made Xia Xiaoxiang feel very aggrieved.
However, as Qin's lifelong girlfriend, Xia Xiaoxiang never gave up even after suffering great injustice. She tried her best to plan for Qin's future happiness and devoted herself to planning her "send Qin" plan.
However, Li Linyue seemed to have discovered a new world and secretly sent her maid Ling out to inquire about the matter.
Although Ling was extremely reluctant, the situation was stronger than she could be. She could only pray silently that His Majesty would wake up soon and put an end to the days of cruelty and tyranny of this hateful guy.
Of course, Lin Wen didn't know how she came up with the eight-character comment "cruel, violent, and domineering". Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Now, every cell in Changshan County is active and every molecule is cheering. The four ordinary words "constantly changing with each passing day" seem so charming to Lin Wen at this height.
After the east-west passage was built, the new town known as the "Heart of the Empire" was also completed.
This city, which cost 300 billion yuan and mobilized 1,500 engineering teams and was managed by Zhao Minggong, the Wolong Emperor, and employed about 4 to 5 million people, was finally completed.
Except for the foundation, this is a city built entirely by human power.
Although its efficiency is not very conspicuous among the many miracle projects in Changshan County, Lin Wen knows that it is Changshan County's most valuable asset.
Zhao Minggong's extraordinary ability, countless funds, and the efforts of every individual have made it possible.
The entire new town, the "urban area" alone covers an area of 3,000 square kilometers. If the suburban area is included, it reaches 5,000 square kilometers, which is one-thirteenth of the entire Changshan County.
Looking at the map, the huge circle representing the new town is located slightly east of the center of Changshan County, occupying one-fifth of the plain east of Changshan County, just like the heart on the left side of the human chest.
The west side of the new town is directly in front of the mountains. A huge east-west passage goes directly from the mountains into the new town, just like the aorta of the heart.
It entered from the west, exited from the east, passed through Huaizhen, left Changshan County, and arrived at the prosperous eastern world of the empire.
From then on, the empire was connected from east to west.
Xinyangzhou, Yunzhou, Hezhou, Lingzhou, etc. in the west no longer have to take a detour of nearly a thousand kilometers. They can directly pass through Changshan County to reach Dongqinzhou, Zhongzhou, Xiyanzhou, Mingzhou, Tianzhou, and Longzhou in the east.
The journey was reduced by at least 600 kilometers.
The road maintenance fees paid were reduced by more than half, and the logistics costs were lower.
It's not just roads, the same is true for railways. By transiting through Changshan County's new town, freight costs can be saved by at least two-thirds.
A large amount of raw materials from the western part of the empire can be transported out through a certain route, and many specialties that cannot be sold due to transportation costs can now be sold. Goods from the eastern part of the empire can also be imported into the east in large quantities, and the prices are almost halved.
The empire's economy became more active in a predictable manner.
This is also one of the reasons why the Great Elder is willing to tolerate Changshan County.
On the first day of the opening of the East-West Railway, all lines were fully booked and the train station in Xinzhen was packed.
Not only a large amount of goods, but also a large number of workers,
They could not afford the long journey to Changshan County. Only when the railway line was opened could they squeeze onto a green train at a cheap price and reach this legendary dreamland to start a new life.
Changshan County's income also began to soar again.
Although random charges are not allowed, the taxes and fees collected normally alone amount to a very considerable figure.
The huge flow of people and logistics also brings huge business opportunities to the new town.
The moment the new town was completed, the refugees who had lived in shacks, containers, and mountain buildings in Changshan County for a long time finally got the new houses they had been longing for.
From the beginning of the war to the end of the war, and up to today, they have been stranded in Changshan County for nearly a year and have also worked for Changshan County for nearly a year.
They produced countless artillery shells, indirectly helping the empire win the war.
After the war, they shifted in large numbers to the fields of clothing, food, and light industrial products, creating countless incomes for Changshan County.
They were also richly rewarded.
And the new home in the new town will be the largest part of it.
The housing prices in Changshan County are relatively cheap.
If several people in a refugee family work, they can already buy a house of about 100 square meters in full.
If only one or two people are working, you may need to borrow some of the money.
The Changshan County Governor's Federal Reserve, established by Lin Wen, specifically provides this funding.
Since the price of the house is not high, the repayment pressure is not very great.
Zhao Minggong strictly implemented Lin Wen's policy, carefully reviewed the qualifications of each person, prohibited a single person from purchasing multiple units, prohibited external funds from monopolizing the market, and gave priority to those who worked and lived in Changshan County.
Overly strict management even caused dissatisfaction among many people in the empire.
Unable to eat meat, they took this opportunity to jointly file a lawsuit with the Supreme Council, accusing Changshan County of violating imperial laws, abusing their power, and competing with the people for profits. They demanded that Changshan County Magistrate Lin Wen be dismissed and replaced by their people.
This fantastic request was naturally not approved.
The Great Elder ignored their demands of "compromise" and "as long as Changshan County lifts the restrictions", and only issued a 2 billion fine for Changshan County for violating the imperial ban.
To the surprise of Zhao Minggong, Qin Luoshuang and others, Lin Wen, who has always loved money, accepted the sky-high fine and did not make any changes.
Changshan County continued to do its own thing, but the Great Elder benefited from it and upheld the authority of the new law. He did not appear to favor any party, and no one could say anything.
Soon, the eight million refugees from Changshan County moved into their new homes.
After being displaced for so long, they finally have a new home.
Such a large amount of funds flowed back to Changshan County, coupled with the countless business opportunities brought by the East-West Road, Changshan County's financial statements exploded instantly. Old Xie no longer had to worry about the hungry mouths from all sides, and he could just smile foolishly at the financial statements every day.
All major projects in Changshan County have received sufficient funding, and hospitals, colleges, kindergartens, and nurseries have begun to be established in large numbers. Changshan County openly recruits outstanding teachers and doctors from all over the empire, and welcomes scientific researchers from all over the country to join Changshan County.
It is worth mentioning that Fermi's Institute No. 99 already has more than 20,000 people, with dozens of imperial-level scientists joining, and dozens of projects including superconductivity and magnetic levitation are under research.
Mr. Li's 100th Institute has recruited countless outstanding speakers, performers, philanthropists, magicians and circus members.
He carefully developed hundreds of magic tricks, almost perfectly reproducing the technological effects of County Chief Lin, pointing out the scientific principles hidden behind the incredible appearance, and strongly refutating the rumor that County Chief Lin was an immortal who had descended to the earth, telling people not to be superstitious about immortal magic, but to believe in science.
His columns such as "Believe in Science", "Enter Science" and "Study Science" have achieved great success and perfectly aroused the interest of young and old people in Changshan County in boring science.
His projects such as "Atomic Research" and "Nuclear and Electronics" attracted the attention of a large number of scientists in the empire.
Some people were dismissive, some were skeptical, and some regarded it as a golden rule, which led to many disputes among schools of thought.
At present, Mr. Li’s school is relatively weak because Mr. Li has no glory or scientific evidence to show for it.
This is also his biggest weakness at the moment.
Mr. Fei has made great efforts in this regard.
He was afraid that County Governor Lin would be deceived by this liar again, so he repeatedly opposed Mr. Li's theory in public and exposed his loopholes.
He believed that Mr. Li's method could not explain County Magistrate Lin's science at all, and that a more scientific method must be used to explain it.
However, since he has not yet found a "more scientific" method, not many people believe him.
It was impossible for Fermi to focus his main efforts on fighting the liar. He firmly believed that science should always be based on facts. As long as he presented the facts, County Governor Lin would believe him instead of the liar.
Of course, this was a matter between scientists, and Lin Wen did not pay attention to it.
The only thing I am concerned about is Haidamo's robot base.
During this period, Xia Xiaoxiang found a large number of engineering experts and material experts for them. Haidamo also attracted many top scientists with its own tonnage.
The various equipment conditions at the robot base are also being rapidly improved, and the major projects are currently progressing very quickly. Haidam has initially overcome their structural and material problems, but he also clearly realizes that electronic control and energy power are the real difficulties.
The robotics project still has a long way to go.
R&D expenses are also increasing steadily. Fortunately, Changshan County can now afford it.
After eight million refugees moved out of the refugee camps, mountain buildings and containers, Yang Shaohu concentrated on cleaning and reusing these areas.
The refugee camps were demolished and new factories were built on the land.
The container was recycled and returned to its original purpose.
The mountain building was centrally renovated and decorated, and Yang Shaohu used his extraordinary inspiration to transform it into an unprecedentedly huge apartment.
After the renovation, just looking at the appearance, it no longer looks like a rock. The exterior walls are covered with exquisite red tiles, which look like a sparkling ruby in the sun.
A large number of external elevators are installed in groups, and the all-glass shell makes it look like a work of art. Passengers can see the magnificent mountain scenery through the glass.
The interior of the mountain building was converted into a military-style dormitory, which was rented out to migrant workers coming to Changshan County at a very low price.
This is simply a stroke of genius.
Although the interior of the mountain building is crowded, it is fully equipped with facilities. The large room serving as a dormitory has a honeycomb structure and covers an area of 1,200 square meters.
In order to accommodate more people, Yang Shaohu previously placed 160 seven-bunk beds here. 1,100 people lived in one room, and they were divided into two shifts, day and night, forcing a total of 2,200 people to be crammed in.
After Yang Shaohu cleaned up, only eighty double beds were left in the large room, and the number of residents dropped sharply from two thousand two to one hundred and six.
Although it is not spacious, it is tolerable.
The room is equipped with special ventilation, lighting and plumbing equipment.
The conditions are naturally not good, but the monthly rent is only 40 yuan, and there are no additional water and electricity costs. Yang Shaohu has set up a dedicated person to manage this and set a limit, but as long as there is no waste, it is basically enough.
If you can adapt to collective life, it can even be called comfortable.
The building also has a huge open-air plaza, covering nearly 3,000 acres, with several parks built on it. It is the perfect place to relax in your spare time and relieve the stress caused by the cramped environment.
There are a large number of retail stalls in the square, where you can buy many cheap gadgets, set up your own stall, and find out a lot of information about Changshan County.
This place is like a bustling night market, with people coming and going, jostling each other.
There is also a huge parking lot under the square. All bus routes depart from here, and a subway is also being built here.
From here, you can easily reach any place in Changshan County by car.
For migrant workers, there is simply no better place than this.
As long as one can adapt to collective life, it can even be called heaven.
A paradise for workers.
The new Santi Building quickly became a landmark in Changshan County.
Workers coming to Changshan County no longer have to wander around like headless flies. Once they arrive here, everything will be fine. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all available. Any work information in Changshan County can be consulted here.
Many artists and architectural experts from all over the empire came here to admire it, and many down-and-out people also chose this place.
It seemed as if overnight, the new Shanti Building became popular.
It is known as the apartment that gave birth to "miracles" and is the starting point and turning point of life.
Yang Shaohu did not stop there. He continued to dig the outer mountain to make the area around the building wider.
In the future, he will add more functional facilities, such as a building management bureau that is responsible for building affairs, a special security station, and a relief center that specifically provides assistance to workers, etc.
Yang Shaohu was determined to turn the mountain building into a real paradise for all workers and wanderers, so that this mountain building with a total construction area of 4.5 million square meters, which once accommodated more than 4 million refugees, could shelter more people.
All these changes came from the construction of a new town in the heart of the empire, which was called a "town" but was actually a "city".
Its completion changed the fate of countless people and brought countless benefits to Changshan County.
Changshan County's distorted development finally got back on track.
Once this huge force runs on the smooth rails, its strong inertia makes it difficult to stop.
Changshan County entered a new stage.
