Chapter 3681 Here Comes a Person Who Can Pretend
"Fourth rank!" Lu Fengxian shook his head helplessly.
"Is it difficult?" Xia Tian asked.
"It's difficult. In such a small city, it is impossible. Only those who have made great contributions to the Lu family in the city can be officials above the fourth rank." Lu Fengxian said.
"Okay, let's do it step by step." Xia Tian felt sorry for the two points of tax.
Two points may not sound much, but if the cost is removed, the profit itself is there, and the development of Luoshi City will definitely become more and more abnormal in the future. At that time, these two points may directly become very scary numbers.
"Let's put it this way. If our Lu family's fourth-rank officials are now in the war, they are almost all fighting outside for many years and have accumulated military experience for hundreds of years. And they are all the best among them." Lu Fengxian explained.
When he heard this, Xia Tian finally knew how difficult it was to obtain an official rank.
At first, he only knew that there were many benefits when the official rank was reached.
"Yeah!" Xia Tian nodded.
"However, if you are promoted one level, you will get a lot of benefits and treatment, and even the respect from others will be different. Your rank of seventh-rank official is already good. In the F-level city in our Sichuan region, you are definitely a top figure. When the title is given to Shenying City, the mayor of Shenying City will personally announce it, and then there will be many people trying to curry favor with you." Lu Fengxian smiled slightly.
"No need to curry favor with others, but it would be great if we could completely open up trade, but our Luoshi City is too remote. Except for the three surrounding cities, it is really too difficult to open up trade with other cities." Xia Tian understood that although Lu Fengxian had made some achievements, this achievement was still far from what the Lu family wanted to see.
An F-level city is nothing to the Lu family.
And the millions of yuan in coins are just a drop in the bucket for the Lu family.
So if Lu Fengxian wants to return to the Lu family, and the kind of king's return, he still needs to do a lot of things, at least to turn Luoshi City into a city like Shenying City.
Become a C-level city.
But if you want to change from an F-class city to a C-class city, you need to do a lot of things.
Although Xia Tian has never been to a C-class city, he understands that a C-class city is definitely not comparable to Luoshi City.
"Opening up trade requires the most basic point." Lu Fengxian said.
"What?" Xia Tian asked.
"First, we need to build roads. The road from Luoshi City to the three major cities is not easy to travel. The fastest time is nearly two days. But if the road is built, then it will only take a few hours for our city to get to the three major cities. And after opening the route to the three major cities, we can expand outward through the three major cities. The roads outside the three major cities are all built by the government, and they can be used by dragon boats." Lu Fengxian said.
"Dragon boat? What is that?" Xia Tian asked.
"Uh!!" Lu Fengxian looked at Xia Tian with a weird look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Xia Tian asked puzzledly.
"Do you know about aircraft?" Lu Fengxian asked.
"Of course I know, I've ridden it." Xia Tian said.
"Oh, I think if you don't even know about aircraft, then you must be a wild man who ran out of some forest. Aircraft and dragon boats are the unified means of transportation on Tianyuan Continent. Aircraft are in the sky, dragon boats are on the ground, and there are also dragon boats and aircraft specifically used for transportation." Lu Fengxian explained.
Xia Tian understood this time.
The so-called aircraft is the airplane on the earth, and the dragon boat is the train on the earth.
He didn't expect that Tianyuan Continent was so developed.
You know, the speed of the aircraft is very fast, and the number of people riding is not comparable to that of the airplane.
"Oh!!" Xia Tian nodded.
"We also took a dragon boat to Shenying City." Lu Fengxian said.
"Okay, let's go this time to broaden our horizons and see how big the legendary C-level city is." Xia Tian smiled slightly.
"It's very big and luxurious, but their designs are all very conventional. Unlike our city, Dillon's ideas are very avant-garde. I estimate that in a thousand years, Dillon's designs may be popularized in big cities, so no matter how developed other cities are, they can't compare with our cities, and other cities won't use large areas of land to create those environments and facilities." Lu Fengxian said.
The design of Luoshi City is based on the environment.
Other cities are thinking about having more people living in it.
Only when there are more people can the city develop faster.
However, not all cities have such good public security as Luoshi City. The public security in other cities is very poor.
"Well, if we don't see the big scene, then for us, there is no goal for development." Xia Tian doesn't want to work behind closed doors.
He wants to learn the essence of the outside world to make up for the shortcomings of Luoshi City.
Although he has a lot of experience in the spirit world, this is not the spirit world after all. Things can be communicated, but development cannot be completely communicated.
"Report to the city lord, someone outside wants to see him, saying that he is from Laoshan Sect." The housekeeper reported.
"Laoshan Sect?" Xia Tian and Lu Fengxian looked at each other, neither of them knew each other.
There are three sects, three sects, sixteen palaces, seventy-two caves, and one thousand and twenty-four cities in the Lianyun Mountains.
But I have never heard of any sect.
"Bring it in." Lu Fengxian said.
"Yes." said the housekeeper.
Soon, a group of three people walked in directly.
The leader of the three people was wearing white clothes, and the other two were wearing green clothes. From the clothes, it can be distinguished that the person in front should be of a higher level than the two behind.
"Meet City Lord Lu, City Lord Xia." The white-clothed man in the lead said.
"You're welcome. I wonder who you are."
If the other party treats him with courtesy, then Lu Fengxian will naturally be polite.
"I am an elder of the Laoshan Sect. Laoshan is less than 500 kilometers away from Luoshi City." The elder of the Laoshan Sect said.
"Oh, I know there are many forces nearby." Lu Fengxian knew that there were many forces nearby before, but he didn't care, because in the Lianyun Mountains, this kind of thing is very normal, and even many families are established in the wild.
"Our Laoshan Sect is different from other forces. Our Laoshan Sect is the most qualified force to be promoted to the cave residence." The elder of the Laoshan Sect said.
"Well." Xia Tian nodded slightly and didn't say anything.
"We came here this time to establish a cooperative relationship with your Luoshi City. As long as your Luoshi City is willing to assist our Laoshan Sect to become a cave residence, we can protect your Luoshi City in the future." The elder of the Laoshan Sect said directly.
