840 Chapter 878: the beginning of each city (5)
Angor came to this conclusion by carefully analyzing the current intelligence of the New Territories. First, it was based on the characteristics of the civilization, and second, it was based on the situation of the new territories and the population and culture.
In terms of the characteristics of the civilization, the theory of the mechanical civilization required a lot of energy to be mined. However, the energy ore on Mars could temporarily solve this problem, and it could directly enter a period of high-speed development, they did not need high-quality continental resources like some low-energy civilizations.
For example, the second city was an agricultural and energy civilization. The level-five technology used to be low-energy. It could be run by biological energy and pure elemental energy. Although the progress was slow.., it could store a large amount of energy and materials for export. The energy ore on Mars could also be used to exchange for other resources and preferential policies. The second city would gain a lot of advantages in the early stage, the first city had the exact opposite characteristic!
Angor’s policy was straightforward. He would use the energy reserves in exchange for technological progress. Although it would consume a lot of energy, consume a lot of energy, and import a lot, it might be a disadvantage in terms of diplomacy, the advantage was that the overall technological progress would be much higher than other cities.
This was a difference between civilizations. It was not worth it to compete with Huaxia City’s high-level players for resources on the continent of steel arms. On the contrary, they needed a high-quality overseas population.
The orcs on the continent were not suitable to become qualified craftsmen or engineers…
Therefore, Angor chose mining bases, mining carts, and mining strips for most of the initial equipment except for a few specific training sites, the equipment applications for the canteen, farm, pasture, and textile were only symbolic.
This also caused the first city to look extremely monotonous at first, the new players feel that this is a large mining factory, have complained…
By contrast, the start of the second city was completely different… . .
———-
If you have been to the first city and then come to the second city, your senses will be completely different. Compared to the first city’s simple training grounds and the back-and-forth mining cars, the second city gave people a sense of vitality.
A large number of cultivation areas were divided outside the base, and the installation was very delicate. The layers of buildings made full use of the architectural beauty of the Elven civilization, although the scale was still very simple.., but the matching rooms gave people a sense of a forest park.
In each cultivation area, a long corridor was built with white and beautiful stone slabs on both sides of a guardrail. Each cultivation room on both sides was separated by separate glass, from the corridor, one could see many elf players who had yet to take shape inside carefully taking care of all kinds of plants. Coupled with the slanted sunlight from a certain angle, the scene was completely different from the atmosphere of the mining factory in the first city!
On the outside of the base was a large area of trial farms. The location of the second city was extremely flat and open. The fields were also flat dam fields and man-made paddy fields. In less than ten days, the fields were filled with green sprouts full of vitality, it was emitting a sweet fragrance, and the outermost layer was the open pastures of the city. Large areas of grassland could be seen where elf players drove young domestic animals. The beauty of the overlapping of the fields and pastures was like an extremely beautiful picture… It was pleasing to the eye…
On the other hand, the second city was not very active in mining. In the entire second city, there was only an open asphalt road on both sides of the base, which was used for mining vehicles.
Moreover, it had not been used yet. The reason was very simple. Under Qingming’s policy, the Green Titan, the only gene that could be mined in the early stages of the second city, was banned, as a result, other than the various elves and developers, the private gene in the second city did not have the ability to mine.
Moreover, Qingming’s policy also stipulated that no one was allowed to participate in shapeshifting training for a year. The policy of focusing on developing agriculture and animal husbandry also completely destroyed the idea of some elves wanting to shapeshift early to carry bricks… …
This wasn’t just limited to the outside world. Even some of the internal officials were a little anxious. wasn’t it a little too leisurely to not mine energy for a year?
On this day, Qingming led his team’s minister in charge of ranch planning to inspect the newly built ranch. It was said that the infrastructure of the second city had been given a mission by the higher-ups to have Huaxia City’s flower spirits help with the construction, a barren land had become extremely fertile in just a few days. The same was true for the ranch. The barren, hard sand had been filled with high-quality grass in less than two days, this made Qingming even more determined to cultivate a large number of flower spirits!
“Sir, why don’t you apply to develop a few more plots of farmland and pastures?”The ELF who was obviously Fatter Than Qingming asked.
“The price-performance ratio is too low…”. Qing Ming shook his head and said, “They charge 10,000 points for a hectare of land. It doesn’t seem expensive, but in terms of efficiency, they can complete the mission in just a few days. Obviously, they are cutting our leeks. The starting capital of the city is limited, and it’s not to be squandered without reason. As long as it’s barely enough, it’s fine. It’s not too late to continue to open up after we have our own flower spirits.” “…”
“Sir…”another elven ball couldn’t help but ask, “Are we really going to completely give up on the mineral market?”
“It’s just a delay, not completely giving up…”qingming smiled and said, “Low-level jobs like absenteeism don’t need our people to complete it. When the population of the Otherworld increases in the future, there will naturally be no shortage of labor in this area.”
“But… no matter what, isn’t a year too slow? In a year’s time, the other cities already have enough reserves of energy ores!”
“And then?”Qingming laughed and said, “We can’t finish digging for the time being. Even if we do, there is a land division rule between the cities, so they can’t possibly come to dig for us, right?”
“But… that thing is hard currency!”The elf behind retorted, “If we don’t reserve it in the early stage, won’t we be at a disadvantage diplomatically?”
“The definition of hard currency is correct… “…”. “But the specific value depends on the market situation!”Qing Ming sighed. “Think about it carefully. Right now, the market is short of resources and prices are high. It’s the time when hard currency is at a disadvantage. What will be the most lacking after the population of the five major cities is recorded? Is it energy? “Of course not. It’s basic living materials. Among them, the most important is food. High-quality food and meat are urgently needed by those who want to advance quickly. As long as we can produce high-quality food, we can exchange for a large amount of energy ores. Why rush to mine? “Isn’t it better to wait until the price of food drops before mining?”
“UH…”the ministers looked at each other, speechless.
“Then, sir, those private players in Huaxia City have a large amount of food right now… We can’t grab this market for the time being, right?”The Minister in charge of farm planning asked.
“Don’t worry about that…”. Qing Ming shook his head and smiled, “When I first came here, I consulted the headquarters. Due to the rapid population expansion and evolution of the private lords, the food supply is actually very tight. The New Territories Market is still in short supply, not to mention the market of our new cities. Only the little cabbage tribe has the strength to do so. However, I believe that no city is willing to see the private players in China grow too big. If they have other options, they won’t easily invest in the Chinese players who already have the advantage … Is Our Chance!”
