Chapter 1497: Two Cities Selected and Built Simultaneously
The third city!
Everyone looked surprised and happy. City Lord Ye actually wanted to build two new cities together. Was he planning to promote Wufang City to the second-level power?
Ye Tian looked at everyone's expressions and smiled and answered, "I do want to bring Wufang City to the second-level."
Ye Tian asked Li Meiyi and Ren Qingxian, "Is 700 trillion Lun coins enough to build a city?"
Li Meiyi shook her head and said, "The construction of a new city will cost at least 50 trillion. Generally, only cities with assets far exceeding 10 trillion dare to consider this matter. From infrastructure to city defense, from residential buildings to palaces, from shops to trading fields, all constructions combined will not be less than this number, or even more."
Ye Tian frowned slightly. That 100 trillion Lun coins was not enough.
Ren Qingxian said, "However, most of this is spent on materials. The Minglong tribe follows us, and we can use the materials they produce at a 20% discount."
It is not so easy to upgrade a city to the second level. Not to mention the outrageous cost, even if you have huge assets, you will not be recognized if your strength cannot keep up. That is asking for trouble. On the contrary, because of the labor-intensive and costly city construction, the power strength is reduced by one point.
Ye Tian pondered for a moment, "That will also cost 100 trillion, so I will keep 200 trillion, and the remaining 800 trillion will be used for construction, but I want the best standards for the new city. Tell the Minglong tribe that I will make up for the insufficient Lun currency later, but the city must not be cut corners."
Li Meiyi smiled and said, "They dare not."
Ye Tian said, "Then we owe the Minglong tribe a favor, let them use the fastest progress, I want to see two new cities within a month and a half."
Ren Qingxian nodded, "There are 400,000 laborers from the Yein and Del tribes, plus my Yanhuang lineage and the Lizard tribe..." He shouted playfully, "Guarantee to complete the task!"
It is impossible for Wufang City to develop so rapidly. This is something that I dared not dream of before. Ye Tian built two cities at once, which is really crazy, but Ye Tian must have enough strength to protect himself in the shortest time, and make impressive progress, so that they know that the Yanhuang lineage is not something that can be easily provoked.
Ye Tian asked again, "Have you chosen the address?"
Ren Qingxian brought Ye Tian a cup of black tea, "It has been Mo Lao and Lizard King who have been discussing it."
Mo Jinshou and Lizard King stepped forward, turned on the light screen, pointed to the large map of the southern part of the lower world, and said, "Originally, we both liked two locations, but we couldn't decide. We still had ambiguities on this issue. Now, Lord Ye wants to build two cities, and the problem is solved."
Mo Lao and Lizard King looked at each other and laughed tacitly, and they were also happy for the growth of their cities.
"Please look at the map, Lord."
Kunlun is so big and vast, there are many places that cannot be explored, but the current situation is that the south is weak and the north is strong.
The southern map has the first-level cities of the Red Ear Clan and the Yang Ling Clan, and the second-level forces are the Purple Bright Clan and the Fast Light Clan of the Lan King City, as well as the Red Yao Clan. Of course, the first-level cities such as the Red Ear Clan and the Yang Ling Clan are said to be in the south, but they are actually closer to the center and slightly south, with rich resources. The Purple Bright Clan and the Fast Light Clan are further south, and the further south, the scarcer the resources.
The southwest is even more remote in the wilderness, with only some third-level cities and forces, such as the Dark Dragon Clan, the Del Clan, the Yein Clan, the Demon Dwarf Bird Clan and the Blue Mantis Clan. Of course, there are also some "indifferent" races, such as the Longniu Clan, which is still relatively powerful. I won't go into details about some of the others, some of whom even live a secluded life, and their power is not enough to change any situation.
There is a large desert in the central area, and next to the desert are swamps and deep mountains, as well as some deadly places, where alien battlefields are convenient. There are few humanoids, and even many powerful demon-like races, all of which build cities close to the dividing line between the center and the north.
In this way, most of the powerful races are distributed in the northern part of the lower world.
Mo Jinshou pointed to one of the places with great enthusiasm, "I have investigated this area with the Lizard King. There are rich mineral deposits and many secret realms. Moreover, the land is vast. The monsters only need to be cleared a little. It is not difficult to build a city. It is a very good choice."
Ye Tian stared at the light screen. There was a seemingly wide area in the southwest of the lower world. The terrain was gentle. According to the small notes on the light screen, it was rich in products. Looking at the distance, it was located about 30 degrees north and west of Wufang City, adjacent to Minglong City. Of course, this "adjacent" distance was still very far away. There were no other cities around tens of millions of miles. Because of the distant response, it was certainly not far from Wufang City, about 4.7 million kilometers, or 9.4 million miles.
Seeing the distance, Ye Tian was even more satisfied. Practitioners are not like ordinary people. Nine million miles is not a big number. If they travel at full speed, even if they have a level 5 or 6 heart and lead the army, they will arrive in three or four hours. If they march quickly, it will be even faster. Sun Dasheng can still travel 108,000 miles with one somersault.
Ye Tian was delighted by the land with such good resources and such a good location and distance. He immediately decided, "Okay."
Mo Jinshou's hand moved north on the map, "This is the second location."
That location is 30 degrees east of the north of Wufang City, and the distance is a little farther, reaching 5.9 million kilometers, that is, 11.8 million miles, which is also very good.
Both Mo Jinshou and Lizard King intended to choose the north of Wufang City. The further north you go, the better the resources are, and naturally it is much better than Wufang City.
When Ye Tian saw this location for the first time, he agreed with it in his heart. In this way, the two new cities and Wufang City formed an almost equilateral triangle. The distance between the three cities was also almost the same. It was easy to attack and retreat. Being able to defend each other and being the horns of each other is the best.
There was a worried look on Mo Jinshou's face. Ye Tian understood the location a little bit. That place was really great. It was vast in all directions, including grasslands, hills, mountains and rivers, and various marked secret places and treasures. It’s a bit dazzling. Many races have explored it. The resources are actually much better than the first site. The only problem is that the site is to the north and east, which is King Lan City, although it is far away. It's so huge that it can't help but make people worry.
Mo Jinshou said, "This is my favorite place, but there is a problem..."
Ye Tian asked, "Is it the distance? Is it too close to King Lan City?"
Everyone knows that because Ye Tian killed Jida, King Lan City and Wufang City were at odds with each other. As long as they freed up their hands, they would clean up Wufang City sooner or later and build a new city here. Wouldn't that mean they were looking for death?
"That's not all, Lord Ye. More than 20 years ago, King Lan wanted to build a city here. However, due to some internal problems and the pressure of foreign aggression, the matter was finally abandoned and settled."
