Since she came here through time, Dai Zhixin began to doubt the plot she knew for the first time.
Logically speaking, shouldn't Mo Shaoqing be the son of destiny? And he is the son of destiny that Lin Xiaoran has been thinking about. But why did she see Mo Shaoqing watching Lin Xiaoran get married from afar, without saying a word from beginning to end?
Are you still considered a man of luck?
However, although the plot has undergone major changes, it has not implicated me, so overall it is still cause for celebration.
After the wedding, guests from various forces stayed in Wuling City for a while. During this time, quite a number of forces bought land deeds in Wuling City, apparently planning to establish branches here or simply move here.
Another group of forces kept going to the City Lord's Mansion, asking indirectly whether the Engraving Array Pen would be available for sale in the future. Even if it could not be sold, they began to seriously consider the feasibility of cooperation.
In this regard, Feng Shao did not make a definite statement, but only said that he did not rule out the possibility of selling the engraved array pen in the future, but the time of sale would depend on the right opportunity.
Feng Shao did not explain what exactly is the "right time", and many people did not understand. However, Dai Zhixin, who had read the original plot, knew what Feng Shao meant.
The "right time" that Feng Shao mentioned actually refers to when the next generation of better engraving pens or better substitutes are developed. As long as Wuling City continues to maintain its technological advantage, the more backward generation of products can naturally be released for sale.
It's a bit like the military industry in the modern world. They keep the most advanced generation for themselves, and can only sell the second-rate products.
As the excitement of the wedding gradually faded, one power after another said goodbye to Feng Shao and left Wuling City. But not long after, these powers would send people to Wuling City again and build their own houses on the land deeds they bought.
So for a long time to come, Wuling City will once again become a huge construction site.
After a period of familiarity, Dai Zhixin gradually integrated into the work of the meeting room. Not long after, she proposed a "comprehensive plan for the construction of a modern Wuling City", proposing to build Wuling City into the largest city in Dongzhou within three years.
Although many people don’t understand the name of Dai Zhixin’s plan, the specific steps for implementing the plan are eye-opening for many people.
In fact, Dai Zhixin's plan was the same as Feng Shao's plan in the original plot, but she just took it out in advance and avoided a lot of detours.
Therefore, when Feng Shao saw this plan, he immediately felt that his ideas had been plagiarized.
At the meeting of all officials in the conference hall, Dai Zhixin held up the plan and said proudly: "As long as everyone can do it step by step according to the plan, although we may not be able to rank among the top forces in Dongzhou in a short period of time, at least we can compete with the top forces."
No one commented, but just started reading the plan on the table.
Overall, Dai Zhixin's construction plan is divided into five aspects.
First, the law.
Dai Zhixin knew very well that Feng Shao established Wuling City as the starting point for the establishment of a country. Therefore, Wuling City was actually a small country.
In fact, this is also a feature of this world. The city-state culture is quite strong. Each city is a small country, and each city owner is essentially a local emperor. It's just that there is no supreme ruler above them.
To establish a country, we must first have a complete legal system.
Each faction and city has its own laws. However, their laws are relatively broad and rough, with some having the so-called "three major precepts and five minor precepts" and others like "seventeen sect precepts". Some sects even have no precepts at all. In other words, the sect master or city lord is the precepts.
Such laws lack authority and are difficult to convince the public. In fact, there are too many loopholes in their implementation. The legislation proposed by Dai Zhixin is to fill this deficiency.
In the original plot, Wuling City would also make laws, but that was a few years later. At that time, Wuling City was already very powerful and had a large population, but this also led to various types of conflicts in the city almost every day. Due to the lack of legal basis, the various forces had been arguing and entangled for a long time. Feng Shao learned from his mistakes and then started to make laws.
Now that Dai Zhixin has proposed the enactment of legislation, it is a good way to prepare for a rainy day.
Second, household registration.
The emergence of the household registration system is a key advancement in governance in modern history. It can effectively regulate taxation, corvee labor and other behaviors, and also facilitate cities to selectively allocate resources during their development. It can also effectively combat criminal activities.
The household registration is actually a bit like the genealogy of a clan or family, except that it emphasizes personal information and reduces the weight of interpersonal relationships. Some cities have already implemented the household registration system, but the content is not so detailed. Dai Zhixin, who has her own experience as a reference, has developed a very detailed household registration system.
Not only that, Dai Zhixin also proposed the "points-based settlement" policy and the "temporary household registration" policy, and the reference was naturally the present world.
Third, people’s livelihood.
The scope of people's livelihood is relatively broad, ranging from food, clothing, housing and transportation to birth, aging, illness and death. The livelihood improvement plan proposed by Dai Zhixin basically includes all the projects that are convenient for the people, such as trade, public transportation, food, water use, etc. It is almost all-encompassing. With the foundation laid by Feng Shao before, many aspects of Wuling City do not need to be changed too much, most of them are just icing on the cake.
The improvement of people's livelihood will help attract more urban residents and make Wuling City famous. As the saying goes, "Peaches and plums do not speak, but people come to them of their own accord." As long as Wuling City does what it should do, it will naturally have a good reputation and attract more people. By that time, even if Wuling City does not have the strength of a top-notch force, it will have the influence of a top-notch force.
The expansion of influence is also an important reliance for building a country.
Fourth, education.
The education here mainly refers to two aspects: one is basic education, including literacy, arithmetic and other basic cultural knowledge; the other is enlightenment education of spiritual cultivation.
Dai Zhixin specifically noted in the plan that the education of urban residents will be specially funded by the City Lord's Mansion, and will be open to all urban residents who have obtained Wuling City household registration and temporary household registration. All children must go to school when they reach the specified age. First, they must complete two years of literacy and arithmetic basics, and then three years of enlightenment education in cultivation. After that, according to each person's qualifications, they will enter the City Academy for targeted cultivation.
There are currently two established colleges: one is the Cultivation College and the other is the Technical College.
Others may not know, but Dai Zhixin knows very well that Feng Shao has 130,000 ancient books, of which more than 10,000 are cultivation techniques. With so many cultivation techniques in reserve, it is naturally no problem to establish a cultivation academy.
The technical college specializes in teaching professional techniques such as alchemy, refining, formation, breeding, planting, and domestication.
Dai Zhixin specifically pointed out that the two academies will be the most important strength foundation of Wuling City in the future, so this matter must be cherished and must not be underestimated.
She even had a plan for the deans of the two colleges.
The first choice for the dean of the Cultivation Academy is Lin Xiaoran, while the dean of the Technical College is Lu Qingyuan.
Almost everyone was surprised by the two choices of dean.
If we only talk about identity, it is natural for Lin Xiaoran to be the dean of a cultivation academy. But the problem is that Lin Xiaoran is only sixteen years old this year, and has too little experience and knowledge to be convincing. As for Lu Qingyuan, let alone. Outside of Taiwei Sect, no one even knows who she is.
But in the face of everyone's doubts, Dai Zhixin said confidently: "Believe me, there is absolutely no one more suitable than them."
Dai Zhixin, who is familiar with the original plot, knows the actual abilities of Lin Xiaoran and Lu Qingyuan.
Although Lin Xiaoran is young, he is a true academic master, suitable for all types of cultivation techniques. With such a genius like a humanoid bug in charge, plus the support of Yunjian Pavilion, this cultivation academy will surely soar to the sky, right?
As for Lu Qingyuan, she is a kind of talent that is buried. In the subsequent plots, Lu Qingyuan has been quietly contributing to Wuling City, but she herself is like a small transparent person with no sense of existence. When she first read the book, Dai Zhixin felt that Lu Qingyuan was a bit of a waste of talent to be a teacher in the Cultivation Academy. It would be better to assign her to be the dean of another academy, where she could make better use of her talents.
Fifth, economy.
Dai Zhixin suggested that the City Lord's Mansion should set up a large-scale business, which would mainly deal in Wuling City's specialties, such as natural spiritual energy. In addition, the City Lord's Mansion could use tax reduction policies to attract other businesses to operate in Wuling City. For example, the various rare treasures of Linglong Pavilion and the silk clothing of Xiaoyao Hall, if these products that are well-known in Dongzhou can be sold in Wuling City, it can also attract more high-income people to become citizens.
To Feng Shao's surprise, Dai Zhixin, who had always been clamoring to make a fortune, proposed relatively few plans for economic development, at least far less than the other four items.
The above five points are the Wuling City development plan proposed by Dai Zhixin. They are basically based on the plot of the original book, but they just avoid some detours. Moreover, the entire plan is very detailed, and some of the contents even go as far as to specify when to implement a plan. To be frank, even a fool can build a prosperous city with such a plan in hand.
Feng Shao couldn't help but sigh: Fortunately, I kept this person in the first place. This girl is really a talent!
