638 A single word can determine a million.
Only someone with the potential of Emperor Wu could become a Dao Child!
The Dao Child is the guarantee of the immortality of a major sect's lineage, and the source of all kinds of resources!
Numerous powerful families and speculators are willing to provide resources and beauties; whatever you desire, we will provide it!
Such selection criteria undoubtedly made the competition within these two sects exceptionally fierce. Every disciple had to exert all their strength and constantly improve their abilities in order to stand out from this intense competition.
Geniuses abound, unparalleled geniuses, and geniuses of all ages. It's very difficult for them to be buried. Those who are buried are only of average or above-average talent. Although they may seem exceptionally talented in a county town, they are just ordinary.
Dragons and phoenixes in the county, dragons and phoenixes in the prefecture, dragons and phoenixes in the province, dragons and phoenixes in the dynasty!
The four regions of the world are separated by a wide canal, but Wanzhou in Dalong Prefecture is located in a remote area, so the canal only carries tributaries!
Dalong Prefecture was indeed not a populous area; its geographical location and natural environment limited population growth.
In contrast, the southern region has a suitable climate and fertile land, making it more suitable for human habitation and agricultural production. As a result, it has a large population and a prosperous economy.
The high-yield climate conditions enable agriculture to achieve continuous bumper harvests, and the large population also means a huge consumer market and labor resources, providing strong support for the development of business opportunities such as workshops.
Although Dalong Prefecture is located in a remote area, it has its own unique advantages and value. Dalong Prefecture has important strategic significance in terms of geographical location!
As a fortress at the forefront of defending against potential beast tides in the Ten Thousand Mountains, its geographical location is unique and important. It is not only the first line of defense against foreign enemies, but also a gathering place for numerous resources.
Here, wild medicinal herbs grow everywhere, far more abundantly than in the south, and all kinds of rare medicinal materials are readily available.
However, it grows in the terrifying Ten Thousand Mountains, which are fraught with danger, rarely visited by humans, and frequented by numerous monsters. Many medicinal herbs have been refined over the years and have become exceptionally effective.
Moreover, there are naturally many wild beasts and monsters, even an alarming number. In addition, there are also legendary spirit beasts that can be found. As long as you are bold and strong enough, you can eat and drink your fill.
If you don't have the strength, you'll naturally face a nine-out-of-ten chance of death!
The Ten Thousand Mountains also contain a variety of abundant resources, from rare metal minerals to unique natural gemstones and all kinds of exotic materials; almost everything can be found here.
These resources are extremely valuable to cultivators, as they can be used to refine magical artifacts and improve their cultivation!
Especially a divine weapon, or heavy armor, or divine armor, which automatically protects the body and creates an aura around the entire body, is simply a life-saving weapon in battle.
Every year, in every season, merchants from all directions flock in like a tide, bringing all kinds of local specialties and scarce necessities to buy and sell!
There's not much fairness to speak of; it's more about coming here to reap the benefits.
Especially in harvesting villages and towns like Weiss and Jinjia Village!
Rare resources and medicinal herbs hidden deep in the mountains and forests, ores of unknown use, as well as the fur and bones of monsters and wild animals.
Merchants from afar tacitly use their daily necessities to harvest these local specialties, and then sell them at high prices when they return home!
Because outside of Dalong Prefecture, in the scattered counties and towns, there lived many rootless people.
They were displaced by war or lost their homes due to the change of dynasties, and eventually found temporary refuge on this land.
They didn't live under the rule of the Holy Emperor, but you could also say they were under the rule of the Holy Emperor.
Because the Holy Emperor was benevolent, he did not care much about these things, but due to the remote location, the light of order could not reach them.
Located in a remote area, surrounded by mountains, monsters and evil spirits, this place is also vast and boundless!
Although the Holy Emperor was benevolent, there were still many corners that his power could not fully cover, because information could not be transmitted to the royal city.
He Chen's appearance was like a dazzling light in the darkness, instantly illuminating the surroundings. His power was ferocious, his blade ruthless, and his rules simple and brutal!
The longer it goes on, the faster the news spreads, and those who were initially hesitant will no longer hesitate.
His immense fame and power attracted people from all around him like a magnet, drawing those who were originally scattered in various places, including the rootless and the people seeking refuge, to gather around him.
Filled with hope and dreams, they migrated to the border town in search of a new life. As a result, the border town was revitalized with unprecedented vitality, its population grew rapidly, its streets became bustling, and it presented a thriving scene.
Jingzhai also struggled slightly, trying to break free!
Looking at her lover's smiling face, she relaxed slightly and leaned closer!
She said softly, "Shen Lang, in recent days, many more people have moved to the area around the border town. Their identities have all been verified. Moreover, with the end of the year approaching, the population hasn't decreased much; on the contrary, more and more people are migrating here!"
He held her large hand to keep her still and continued in a soft voice, "During this period of observation, we have been living in remote villages. I estimate that we have completed our observations and are moving in in batches."
Some villages have inquired about Mr. Weng and others moving to the city or living on the outskirts of the border town, and Mr. Weng has already reported this to us.
This matter still needs to be decided by my lover!
It is estimated that more people will begin to migrate here.
The story continued softly, "Old Weng asked whether the city needed to be expanded, or whether a city wall should be built around the outer perimeter facing the Ten Thousand Mountains!"
The surge in population will also bring some problems, such as food and security, which we are already making arrangements for!
Ordinary citizens, deterred by patrols and arrests, rarely dare to cause trouble.
Jingzhai gazed at her lover, her eyes revealing an undisguised adoration, and she couldn't help but gently rub her fingers together!
Yun Su nodded slowly, a hint of solemnity in her eyes. "The population of the border city and its surrounding areas is about to exceed one million. This number is basically accurate. There are people specifically counting those who enter the city."
We have already planned the specific residential locations, which are arranged in a cross shape to ensure convenient access to all directions and facilitate future transportation and expansion.
While designated residential areas solved the housing problem, they also led to a significant increase in the patrol area.
With a slight sigh, he continued, "The lack of manpower, especially the scarcity of cultivation experts, was a major problem we faced before."
Furthermore, with the mixing of the population, it is easier for unsuitable individuals to infiltrate, posing a significant threat to the security of the border town.
I never imagined that one day a single decision could change the fate of so many people. Before I knew it, an invisible pressure was slowly creeping in!
Yun Su smiled gently and said softly, "However, it seems this matter isn't too complicated now. With Yang Dexing and the others breaking through, we have enough manpower!"
