The correct way to open the elf

Chapter 408: Demonic Plane
Everyone was talking at once, and Johnny explained to Philip beside him what he knew, including the Golden City, job recruitment and so on.

"Each accepted candidate will be rewarded with one cattail coin as a reward to the introducer? Is it equivalent to two imperial silver coins?" Philip asked.

He still remembered that the guide Johnny was paid one cattail coin or two imperial silver coins every day.

Johnny took out a cattail coin and handed it to Philip, saying, "Almost, but not quite, because an imperial silver coin is as heavy as one and a half cattail coins.

But the products made in Cattail City are more exquisite and of higher purity, and can be circulated in Cattail City. If you have the chance, you can buy some things there that they would never sell to other people.

Therefore, the Cattail Coin has a certain collection value, and some people buy Cattail Coins at high prices.”

Philip fiddled with the cattail coin and said, "This...isn't it minted?"

"No, it's a method unique to Cattail City."

After Johnny told Philip everything he knew, he ended his tour guide job because he wanted to follow his father to find workers and earn some "agency fees".

Philip thought this was a good business plan. At least there was no cost, so he was prepared to get involved.

Moreover, he came from the north and was familiar with the situation there. He knew that there were people who had been displaced and were in urgent need of a job to make a living.

As for whether those who want to make a fortune from this are scammers or not, Xiangpu City has no control over it. Anyway, when picking up people, Xiangpu City will definitely check them, and those with obvious problems will not be accepted.

Feng Yu thought that the source of this wave of labor force was the refugees from the Brocade Empire, but he didn't expect that there were also many people from Moran. This might be attributed to the fact that the Moran people who had previously come to Xiangpu City to pan for gold made a lot of money in Xiangpu City.

A large number of workers will first meet the urban construction needs of Xiangpu City, and then the construction needs of Chenxi City. If the number is larger, they will be assigned to Golden City.

At first, Feng Yu thought that even if he introduced the "agency fee" policy, not many people would come. After all, the Great Wasteland is known as an ancient battlefield and it is not a good place. How many people would come?

But what was unexpected was that the group of people who wanted to do a no-cost business were too crazy. I don’t know what method they used, but they fooled boatloads of people to come, which really gave Xiangpu City a big surprise.

The project that wastes the most manpower and resources in Cattail City right now must be the project in Dawn City, because it is at the foot of the Snow Peak Mountains and cannot use a large number of machines. Only a small amount of machinery can be used in conjunction with manpower for construction.

Originally, most of the workers there were gnomes, dwarves and halflings, and the construction speed was average. But now, many workers with management skills were selected to become foremen, and the rest were replaced by human laborers.

This not only accelerated the construction progress, but also saved a large number of workers from being transferred to Xiangpu City.

Particularly important among them are the dwarves. Dwarves have a good talent for mechanics and can drive construction machinery with a little training.

These dwarfs were transferred to Cattail City to participate in excavator training, and then they were transferred to the construction site to work and practice while working.

The Lengshui River diversion project dug a large ditch in the east of Xiangpu City, which served as a moat.

This time, Feng Yu waved his hand and asked them to lengthen this section of the ditch and dig a real moat outside the city of Pupu to protect the railway and fortress within the canal.

Not only that, they will also dig a water diversion channel to the Lengshui River, so that the water from the Lengshui River, whose water level has almost risen to the same level as the Great Wilderness, can be poured into the moat, thereby accelerating the moistening of the dry land of the Great Wilderness.

The same aqueduct also exists at the small lake where the Cyclops lives near the magnetite mine. The small lake has been backflowed with water from the Lengshui River and has become a large, sparkling lake. Green plants have grown on the surrounding land.

Cattail City was undergoing construction on a grand scale, squandering the large amounts of gold earned from humans, and the progress of various projects was greatly accelerated.

The expansion plan of Cattail City has also been put on the agenda. This time the main expansion will be the Academy of Sciences and the residential area of ​​Cattail City.

With the popularization of education, there are more and more talents in Xiangpu City. The Academy of Sciences, which integrates scientific research and teaching, is becoming more and more crowded with the growing number of scientific researchers and various laboratories.

This time, Feng Yu planned to expand the core unit of Xiangpu City into a large university town integrating scientific research and education in one step.

This time, we will build a number of large laboratories, observatories and other scientific research facilities to enhance the scientific research capabilities of the Academy of Sciences and once again accelerate the technological development of Xiangpu City.

The residential area of ​​Cattail City also needs to be expanded. So far, there are still many elves and halflings in the Elf Forest who have not come out, but they will be meat on the plate of Cattail City sooner or later, so the "bowl" for the meat must be prepared first.

Half a year has passed in a flash.

Just as Cattail City, together with its two satellite cities, Dawn City and Golden City, were rapidly moving towards a modern metropolis with the help of a large number of human laborers, and just as the Brocade Empire and the Harpies were hunting each other, something big happened again in Grion.

The gate to the demonic plane opened, in a large underground cave in the south of the Moran Empire.

The crypt beetle, a monster unique to the demon world, is an excellent "tunnel worker".

In addition, the terrain there is mountainous, a typical "karst landform", with winding caves in the mountains. By the time Cromwell arrived there from the north of the Brocade Empire, the underground caves had become the lair of demonic creatures.

The creatures in the demon world are different from the harpies in the wind elemental plane. There are intelligent lives there, and they are more difficult to deal with.

Although Cromwell killed many low-level monsters from the demon world that escaped from the ground, he was still unable to cope with them. Faced with the monsters running out from the exits of various caves, he could only notify the nearby towns and the Moran Empire first, and then think of other ways.

As soon as the telegram sounded, Pupu City naturally knew about it.

However, unlike the anxious Cromwell, Feng Yu and Master Illya were secretly happy in their hearts, because this meant that there would be one less plane gate in the Great Wilderness, and the danger to Cattail City was reduced again.

But it’s enough for you to know about such things. During this period, Feng Yu and Illya pretended that they knew nothing, but they invested more in the construction of Xiangpu City.

Originally, Dawn City was a prepared "retreat city". Now that Cattail City is becoming more and more secure, there is no doubt that it is most cost-effective to concentrate all efforts on building Cattail City.
