A month later, the construction of Hope Academy was basically completed. Although it looked simple, at least all the facilities were complete, and the first batch of adults had basically completed their Chinese language learning and were ready to graduate.
These people will then return to their respective tribes to pass on the Chinese language, or another group of people will come to continue learning the Chinese language.
As the education at Hope College gradually stabilized, Xia Qingyi gradually withdrew from it and refocused her work on the construction of the financial system.
"How's the first batch of crops going?" Xia Qingyi asked Cecilia.
As rulers of their respective races, the two will have numerous opportunities to interact and coordinate a great deal of work.
"It's really amazing! So many crops have ripened in just one month thanks to the magic!" Cecilia said excitedly. In her world, although it wasn't possible to have one or two harvests a year, it was possible to have four harvests a year. There was no shortage of food in the extraordinary world.
But to her surprise, after arriving on the primordial planet, she witnessed something even more miraculous: the crops she planted ripened in just one month. Looking at the farmers working hard to harvest in the fields, Cecilia could only marvel at the wonder of the Creator, or rather, the greatness of the Lord.
“It’s good that it’s ripe. I won’t be distributing any more grain to you. All grain will have to be obtained by the common people through trading with others using gold coins!” Xia Qingyi nodded and said, which surprised Cecilia.
“But not all people grow food,” Cecilia asked, frowning.
"But the grain we've grown is enough to feed the Aini people, and even enough for all races!" Xia Qingyi said. "Over the past month, we've distributed a considerable amount of gold coins, and now it's time to get these coins circulating!"
“Cecilia, you must teach your people to be self-sufficient, instead of waiting for the royal family to allocate resources. Only when they have desires, demands, and the wealth gap brought about by money will they work hard to develop the city. Otherwise, what’s the use of having so many gold coins in their pockets if they don’t use them?”
Xia Qingyi's words made Celicia fall into deep thought. Indeed, as she said, the development of a city cannot be separated from consumption. This was knowledge he had learned when he was a prince. But was it really a good idea to force people to consume now?
"Don't forget, this is an era of new beginnings. Whether you are a prince or a commoner, now that you have come to the Primordial Star, everyone is on the same starting line. Whether you continue to be a poor commoner or strive to become a superior person, it depends on yourselves."
"And what does it matter if we don't have money? The jobs we provide never stop. As long as you're willing to work, there are plenty of ways to earn gold coins. Ding Siyin told me this morning that she hopes we can hire some people to help her raise the animals. She's a bit too busy on her own!"
After listening to Xia Qingyi's words, Cecilia finally felt relieved. Indeed, as she said, the work provided by the lord had never stopped, and the funds allocated to him were not small. As long as he was willing to work, he really didn't have to worry about starving to death.
"Alright! We'll do as you say. We won't requisition this harvest of grain. Let them put it in the market and let people trade it freely!"
"Well, it's not enough for you alone. I also need to inform the other tribes that my funds will only be allocated to the leaders of each tribe. But if they can't get these funds circulating, I'll make trouble for them!" Xia Qingyi said.
“I know, but speaking of the food issue, there really is a problem that needs to be solved!” Cecilia nodded, then frowned as she continued, seemingly remembering something.
"It was that group of vampires whose new patriarch, Burns, found me. Their food mainly consists of human blood or the blood of other intelligent beings. Now that they have come to the Primordial Star, they have not really eaten for a long time and have been consuming the blood of ordinary animals to cope with the situation. But in the long run, they will gradually lose their strength and fall into a deep sleep. Their new patriarch, Burns, found me and said that many young vampires have already fainted."
Hearing this question, Xia Qingyi was also taken aback. She had forgotten that among the many races that came to the Primordial Star this time, there was actually a vampire. These vampires neither eat meat nor vegetables; they have to drink human blood!
Xia Qingyi pinched her brow, feeling a headache coming on. This matter could be easily resolved, or it could be difficult.
"You have to send these vampires to New Aini to build a blood bank, allowing them to buy and sell blood, but it must be voluntary, and no coercion is allowed!"
"A considerable amount of funds has been allocated to their vampire clan's city construction, so it's a good opportunity for them to put this money to good use!"
Xia Qingyi gritted her teeth and said, "For now, this is a decent solution, but if it continues, it will easily lead to various problems. The most obvious one is those unscrupulous merchants who secretly capture blood slaves and sell them to vampires to make huge profits."
"This! Alright!" Cecilia was stunned for a moment, then nodded with difficulty. He hadn't expected that the matter would eventually turn into using the blood of the Aini people to feed this group of vampires. Fortunately, it wasn't mandatory, as long as people weren't encouraged to sell their blood. Unfortunately, Xia Qingyi saw through his intentions at a glance.
"Don't even think about hindering it. You should even promote it. A little bloodletting is beneficial. It can not only promote blood circulation, but you should also know that it's better to guide than to block. The more you restrict it, the less blood the vampires will drink, which will only cause bigger trouble and even trigger all kinds of shady underground transactions!" Xia Qingyi glanced at him indifferently and said.
Upon hearing this, Cecilia shuddered and gave an awkward smile. "I understand. I'll make sure to spread the word when I get back!"
Xia Qingyi pursed her lips and didn't say anything more. These races in the extraordinary world may indeed have unique ways of improving their own strength, but their exploration of the origin of the body is very shallow. So many people on Blue Star voluntarily go to donate blood for free, and you are still complaining about selling your blood at a high price.
However, such scientific matters cannot be explained to him in a short time. Whether he believes it or not, if it really causes various malicious incidents, he will naturally suffer the consequences.
