I Became a Progenitor Vampire

Chapter 140: Urgent Financial Crisis

Time flies, and the light that shines on you in the blink of an eye is the sun of another day.

When the snow and ice on the streets of the City of Dawn melted, when the howling cold wind turned into a mild warm wind, when the cuckoo birds began to sing on the treetops of the budding broad-leaved plane trees.

The cold and lonely winter months have passed.

The warm and moist sowing season has arrived.

At the beginning of March, the people who were originally wrapped in thick cotton-padded clothes had taken off most of their clothes and went into battle lightly.

And the city of Dawn, which had been stagnant in the winter because of the cold, was rejuvenated.

The stopped mage tower began to recruit workers,

Blacksmiths carry out farm implements in piles and distribute them to the commoners,

The tailor's new clothes have also changed from thick cotton coats to thin coats.

The whole city was breathed back into life.

A new year begins.

Li De stood by the window of the office on the third floor of the city hall, looking at the people coming and going on the street through the open window, with a deep smile in his eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the winter months passed.

A lot has changed this winter, and Dawn City is completely different from last year.

Now the land under his feet is a city with a population of nearly 10,000, and the number of blood clans in it has exceeded 400.

The majestic Dawn Mage's Tower is under construction, the busy figures in the farmland outside the city are farmers who are cultivating, and the spirited security personnel are walking on the street in new uniforms.

Everyone's face was filled with hope and reverence.

The vibrancy that this city exudes is amazing enough.

Harrison, report on the current state of Dawn City

After a long time, wearing a blue mage robe, Li De, who was elegant and perfect in temperament, withdrew his gaze towards the street.

He turned to face Harrison, who was wearing a dark gray robe and looked feminine.

Harrison was ready,

After Wei Wei saluted, she began to report on the progress of her work throughout the winter.

He has developed a work habit and will do a work summary at the beginning of each month.

Today is March 3rd.

Patriarch, the Winter Moon did not stop us from developing.

The first is urban construction.

We have repaired a lot of dilapidated houses, and the population of the South District has increased by about 3,000 people.

Now the total number of houses can provide about 25,000 people to live in, and the population of Dawn City has been further increased.

However, in order to meet the plundering of the population in the winter months this year, it is expected to build houses that can accommodate 3,000 to 5,000 people.

The Mage Tower in Dawn City also restarted yesterday. With the assistance of 100 vampires, the overall construction of the Mage Tower is expected to be completed by May.

Reed nodded, but did not interrupt Harrison's speech.

After the beginning of spring, all the focus will shift to the construction of Dawn City, and the plundering of population will be suspended.

According to the practice of previous years, after the Winter Moon, the orcs will withdraw from the territory of the Nolan Empire and return to the barren wasteland, and humans will take over this land again.

To plunder the population now is undoubtedly a head-to-head fight with the human army. The orcs will not fight to the death with the vampires, but humans will not mind hunting and killing the vampires whose whole body is full of alchemy materials.

Since the focus has to be shifted to urban construction, the Mage Tower in Dawn City will undoubtedly be a key construction project in the next two months, and he has dispatched hundreds of blood tribes to participate in the construction.

Second point, the development of the market economy

Because of the increase in population, many people have the idea of ​​opening shops and chambers of commerce. The City Hall deliberately set aside an entire street near the square for human trade.

In the future, this area will be the commercial center of Dawn City. At present, this area has 6 tailor shops, 5 bakeries, 1 flower shop, 1 grain store under the jurisdiction of the City Hall, and 1 grocery store.

Due to the lack of materials, many residents who are interested in doing business cannot find a suitable entry point, so this new market is not prosperous, but I believe that after the land can be cultivated, there will be a wave of outbreaks.

Business development Li De did not deliberately control it. Now the lack of materials is a big problem. If you want to develop business, you must solve this matter before you can talk about the next step.

Reed nodded for Harrison to continue.

Third, the blood race itself.

After the hero selection competition, the number of blood clans has reached 400, but the strength of the new 200 blood clans is still relatively weak, and the levels are all between 1 and 3.

It is expected that there will be a wave of improvement in strength after the completion of the Mage Tower, but in a short period of time, it can only be used for simple work in the City of Dawn, and it cannot be of great use.

After the expansion of the blood clan, the new blood descendants are undoubtedly very weak and need time to grow. Li De is so anxious to build the mage tower to improve the strength of the new blood descendants faster.

Fourth, the iron ore in the Valley of Giants.

The Cyclops are now the most capable miners, they can mine forty tons of ore a day.

Although this iron ore is a rich ore, the quality of the ore is average. After these ores are refined in the blast furnace newly built by the blacksmiths in the City of Dawn, they can produce four tons of pig iron.

Li De nodded slightly, the quality of the ore could not be solved, but the production efficiency made him very satisfied.

Purely manpower mining of ore is undoubtedly a very inefficient thing. If human beings are used to mine it, hundreds of people may not be able to dig up 40 tons of ore in a day.

Cyclops undoubtedly helped him solve this big trouble.

This group of beings with the blood of ancient giants has extremely terrifying power, and it seems that they are born for mining except for fighting.

The Cyclops people only need to work hard to dig to eat every day, and they can even save the surplus food. They also feel very happy.

Fifth, the running of the town hall.

The Ministry of Agriculture has been established, and in the past two weeks, it has begun to guide the residents to select and breed...

The number of members of the security team has reached 200, and they train according to the required military training tasks every day. At present, the normal security issues are all handled by the members of the security team...

Logistics team...

Propaganda Department...

In Harrison's day-long report, a series of issues such as people's livelihood, agriculture, economy, politics, and military affairs in Dawn City were summarized in detail.

The development of Dawn City in the past six months was presented to him in an intuitive way.

Thriving.

However, the last question to talk about made Li De frown.

He's going bankrupt...

Patriarch, we have been carrying out high-intensity urban construction and various welfare expenditures, and now there are less than 2,000 Jinpukes left on the city hall's books.

The various departments of the City Hall need to spend a fixed amount of 1,000 gold pucks every month, and the money on the books is only enough for our operation for two months.

In other words, we are out of money.”

This data made Li De's mouth twitch slightly. The development of Dawn City was entirely supported by his blood clan's treasury, and his secret room full of Jin Poke had already been emptied.

2,000 gold pucks are not a small amount for an individual, but for a fast-growing city, it is too small to bear to look directly at.

A company with more than 10,000 employees and large-scale construction every month has only 20 million working capital on its books.

This development is undoubtedly walking a tightrope.

The rapid development of Dawn City in the early stage can be said to be all based on the wealth accumulation of the blood clan.

Buy food, buy magic materials, buy all kinds of farm tools, cotton, cloth, and even pay the salaries of the security team, the later team, and other temporary workers.

The wealth of the blood race was transferred to the residents by purchasing labor.

But now the City of Dawn has no other means of obtaining the wealth in the hands of its residents.

Therefore, the current situation is that in addition to daily expenses, the wealth accumulated by the residents will gradually increase, but in the end, the wealth that can flow back to the city hall is very small.

If the city hall wants to have income, it can only collect taxes. The food is sold at a discount, and the cost of harvesting is negligible.

But now the market is depressed, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com materials are scarce, there are no commercial activities at all, and newly established chambers of commerce and shops can enjoy a one-year tax-free preferential policy, which has caused the city hall to have only expenditures and no income.

Using the heritage of the blood clan to develop can undoubtedly make the city prosperous to the fastest degree, but this prosperity will also stagnate after the wealth is exhausted.

If there is no more financial support to get tax revenue in Dawn City, I am afraid that it will really face the dilemma of not being able to pay wages internally, and having no money to buy materials outside.

After thinking for a while, Li De showed a meaningful smile.

It doesn't matter, I'll deal with Jinpuke, you just need to continue to maintain the development of Dawn City, and soon a large number of Jinpuke will be recorded.

The winter months have passed, and spring has come.

Adventurers in Green City should venture out of the city, right? Those mercenaries who lick their blood should also be hired, right?

His Magic Scroll Factory has been stockpiled for a winter...and it's time to ship.
