Otherworld Girl Development Guide

The high-speed train swayed slightly, and then the images from the outside world slowly flashed by. After leaving the station, G0001 began to gradually accelerate, and the speed became faster and faster.

At this moment, Mr. Kim took out a Mira and placed it on the table in front of the Queen.

"Mr. Jin, what is this?"

Corliss looked at Mr. Kim with some confusion, and Mr. Kim smiled mysteriously.

"Hehehe... Princess Corliss, please allow me to keep you in suspense for now."

G001's speed increased rapidly, and the speedometers on both sides of the carriage quickly reached 360 km/h, maintaining a very stable speed.

Others might not understand what happened, but the head of the Rice Orbal Workshop, who was also a powerful expert, quickly realized what had happened.

Stability! An indescribable stability and smoothness! How did they achieve that?!

Turning my head to look at the scenery rushing past the window, I saw that the train was running on a bridge!

Queen Estée looked at Mira standing on the table and seemed to understand something, her expression showing a hint of admiration.

"Amazing technology!"

Mr. Jin smiled proudly: "You flatter me."

Swish!

G001 entered a 3-kilometer-long tunnel. The tunnel was brightly lit, and the gray tunnel walls and some fleeting slogans could be seen.

After exiting the tunnel, a breathtaking view unfolded before my eyes. Looking out the window, I saw a deep cliff with emerald green mountain streams on either side, and a waterfall in the distance.

The cascading water crashes against the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, splashing and forming a beautiful rainbow under the sunlight.

The Queen's mouth gaped slightly. How did these people from Shangqiu manage to build a bridge in such a place?!

The royal family had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery before them. Soon after, G001 entered the next tunnel. When the train emerged from the tunnel, all the passengers of the Bel Kingdom were dumbfounded and speechless.

"Goddess above, are we in heaven?"

"My goddess!"

The dignitaries stood up and pressed their faces against the car windows to look out. The long bridge stood tall above the "sky," and looking out the window, they could see the thick fog below the bridge, as if they were walking among the clouds.

Mr. Jin pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

What is true power? Is it spending all your time swaggering around and showing off your strength in other people's homes?

The whole "struggle for supremacy" thing started in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods; our ancestors had already done it all.

The best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans; the next best is to disrupt their alliances; the next best is to attack their army; and the worst is to besiege their cities. This is the wisdom of our ancestors!

Have you truly understood what our ancestors taught us?

During the rest of the journey, the royal family and dignitaries of the Bel Kingdom fell silent. Shangqiu showed them what it meant to be able to overcome any obstacle and make the journey completely unimpeded!

After a modest lunch, G001 drove out of the mountains and into the plains of Shangqiu, and the rest of the journey was much smoother.

After passing a sign printed on a dirt slope with the words "Welcome to Shangqiu" in red, G001 entered the territory of Shangqiu.

Queen Estée turned her gaze away from the car window and looked seriously at Mr. Kim sitting opposite her.

Soon, the surrounding dignitaries consciously moved away from the royal family and Mr. Kim.

"Mr. Jin, impressive technology. I wonder when our orbal train will be able to traverse mountains and valleys like this, quickly transporting the kingdom's people to every corner of the kingdom."

"Hehehe..." After a tactical chuckle, Mr. Jin said seriously, "...We are not old-fashioned and stuck in the past. We are friends with the Kingdom and partners who move forward hand in hand."

Queen Estée neither agreed nor disagreed with Mr. Kim's suggestion, and instead brought up another matter:

"Mr. Kim, after a year of restructuring, the Kingdom's intelligence department has resumed operations..."

Mr. Jin adjusted his glasses, waiting for Queen Estée to continue.

"...Not long ago, I thoroughly purged the officials there..."

It took a year to get rid of those termites... Queen Estée is truly patient, just like the most experienced hunter, waiting for the prey to lower its guard before striking a fatal blow!

"...The findings of the investigation horrified me. Seventy percent of the officials were corrupted by the cult, and hundreds of children were kidnapped and went missing."

As she spoke, Queen Estée's tone became tinged with anger.

"Under the investigation of the intelligence department, we discovered traces of several branches of the cult, pointing to a certain place in the Republic of Calva, a certain place in the Rebonian Empire, and some clues pointing to the Magic City of Krobel."

Klopp?

Mr. Jin's heart tightened. The fractal silica in Krobel was urgently needed. Another route would be completed in two months, just ten kilometers from Krobel. At this time, intelligence broke out that there might be a cult within Krobel.

That makes sense, since Krobel is an "international" city, it's easy for cultists to infiltrate.

The rabbit has zero tolerance for the cult's actions, and given that the rabbit previously destroyed a branch of the cult, based on the information provided by Queen Estée, the cult must be aware of this as well.

Therefore, the members of the cult within Krobel will definitely not let this go. In other words, Krobel will not only have to deal with the Rebonian Empire and the Republic of Calva on the surface, but also the local forces in the gray area of ​​Krobel, and also guard against the cult launching terrorist attacks on the investment projects in Shangqiu in secret.

"We have encountered many hardships on our way forward to get to where we are today, and we are not afraid of any challenges."

Queen Estée nodded, and then sensed that the G001 train was slowing down.

"Dear passengers, this train is about to arrive at its final destination, Shangqiu Station. Shangqiu is..."

The train then began introducing Shangqiu, allowing passengers to learn more about Shangqiu's products.

As the train gradually slowed down, G001 finally came to a smooth stop at Shangqiu Station.

"Your Majesty, we have arrived. Welcome to Shangqiu."

Queen Estée looked at the Mira coin on the table, which had remained perfectly upright the entire time.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing what other miracles you'll create."

Chapter 4 Give me birth!

After G001 came to a complete stop, the coin tipped over onto the table with a crisp sound the moment the Queen stood up.

Ring ring~

The moment Queen Estée stepped out of the booth, she felt as if she had entered another world. The bright glass house was much simpler than the heavy stone houses of the Rebonian Empire.

Guided by Mr. Jin, the Queen and her entourage walked out of the exit. On both sides of the exit, there were animated "paintings" introducing the mountains and rivers of Shangqiu as well as various products.

"Your Majesty Queen Esther, this is our city light rail, which allows for quick access to downtown Shangqiu and is part of the city's multi-level transportation system."

After boarding the city light rail, the Queen and her entourage headed into the city center.

Below the light rail is a neat black asphalt road with orderly white traffic lines, and every now and then you can see some "guide cars" driving on the wide asphalt road.

“Mr. Jin, your road is really wide…” Queen Estée looked at the wide eight-lane road and asked with some curiosity, “...but there aren’t that many vehicles. Is there some special reason for that?”

"We have a group of people in Shangqiu who specialize in studying urban development plans for the future."

"Mr. Jin, could you please provide a more detailed explanation?"

Mr. Jin's words piqued Queen Estée's interest. Her greatest strength was her willingness to ask questions when she didn't understand. The Bel Kingdom couldn't afford to be complacent if it wanted to develop; it had to learn and improve. This was also why the Bel Kingdom was famous throughout the continent for its orbal power.

Mr. Jin thought for a moment and then gave an example to explain the reason:

"...Take the royal capital, Gran, for example. Although the roads are currently adequate for use, with the outbreak of the Orbal Revolution and the release of production capacity, Orbal cars will no longer be a means of transportation only the wealthy can afford. At that time, if the roads are not wide enough, it will cause traffic jams and affect the travel of citizens."

This is also a very troublesome problem. Just like the engineers in "Project Dyson Sphere" who couldn't wait to escape their home planet, a large part of the reason was that they were overwhelmed by the messy production line they designed. Obsessive-compulsive disorder sufferers would even die on the spot.

"Amazing wisdom!"

Queen Estée thought about the current traffic congestion in the future capital, Gran, and couldn't help but feel a little worried... It's good to be prepared, and there's a ready-made teacher right in front of us.

"I wonder if the kingdom could learn from our urban planning experience?"

“Of course, Your Majesty Queen Estelle. We warmly welcome friends from the Kingdom to Shangqiu to exchange experiences, share resources, and work together for mutual progress…” Mr. Jin adjusted his glasses and continued, “…In addition, we have many vacant job positions here.”

With the opening of the Shangqiu-Ley road, it is foreseeable that the entire transportation route will be stimulated, with a large number of factories relying on this trade route. Once Shangqiu and Krober are connected, a "golden triangle" area will be formed on the road centered on Shangqiu.

It is foreseeable that Rice will become the most developed city in the Kingdom of Bel in the future. More and more people will learn about Shangqiu, and Shangqiu's influence will grow. Many things can be resolved through communication.

Then...another unavoidable problem arose: a shortage of staff!

People are an indispensable factor in development; without people, there is no development.

Relying solely on immigration from Earth is somewhat unrealistic. Small-scale migrations are manageable, given the large population; losing 10,000 people every day, if done properly, wouldn't easily attract attention.

To the outside world, they have already declared "negative population growth!" in an inconspicuous corner. Many cities have become ghost towns, and large numbers of young people have fled overnight (PS: to another planet)!

The large-scale population decline cannot be concealed, and it is impossible for a large number of young and middle-aged laborers to be transferred to Shangqiu from within the country.

Therefore, introducing foreign population is a necessary way to increase the available population.

This is also a good thing, because after intermarrying with a local, the child will automatically grow rabbit ears.

Out of a sense of responsibility, the rabbit with the head and ears must receive "free nine years of compulsory education." After graduating, it will at most be a spotted rabbit with different hair colors, but it will still be a rabbit at heart. So, we will be a loving family!

Some "experts" have already come out and are shouting about the "gene complementation theory".

The parents' genes complement each other, resulting in a child with unique potential who might be an Einstein, just like two photos of genius girls with their IQs of 230 blurred out.

The Shangqiu government was practically choking the rabbit, yelling, "Give them all! We'll raise as many as you have! The state will raise your children! Goodness gracious!"

When the light rail train arrived at the central station of Shangqiu, Queen Estée and her entourage stepped off the train and were greeted by a huge central square with red flags fluttering in the wind on the flagpole.

Out of respect for the Kingdom of Bel, another flag of the Kingdom of Bel is flying slightly lower than the red flag on the flagpole next to the red flag.

Queen Estée was invigorated as she looked at the neatly planned central square.

Not far away, a large number of Shangqiu people were busy at the construction site. It was clear that the construction was not yet completed and many infrastructure projects were still under construction.

If the technology of orbal energy continues to develop, the current situation will likely occur in the Kingdom of Bell soon, and then the Kingdom of Bell will need a target to learn from.

Perhaps the people of Shangqiu are a good teacher... but the Kingdom of Bel won't completely learn from Shangqiu, only from its experience with cash.

This is... a case of feeling one's way across the river by touching the rabbit.

...........

Zhou Mingrui led the two kittens out of the big boss's research institute. His worries were resolved. As expected, only Versailles truly understood Versailles. The two clever little girls gave the Versailles boss a feeling of finding "kindred spirits".

With guidance from an expert who had some knowledge, Zhou Mingrui at least knew their direction for the next year.

The big boss said, "If I can do it, there's no reason why my two smart kids can't do it too, like getting their doctoral degrees (in a flat, monotone tone)."

It's made to sound as simple as eating and drinking, but there are some things I should tell the two of them.

As they gain more and more knowledge, coupled with their exceptionally high intelligence, they will inevitably discover the problems in Shangqiu sooner or later. It's better to tell them sooner rather than later to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
