Chapter 564 The New Name of Tudou County
To upgrade Tudou County from a county-level administrative center to a city-level administrative center, many conditions need to be met.
There are requirements in terms of road transportation, fire protection, medical care, commerce, sanitation, entertainment, culture, etc.
If a person were to take a preliminary look at these conditions, one would be the first and the second the biggest.
But fortunately, Flynn's construction of Tudou County has not been based on low standards, but has been carried out in accordance with various modern high standards.
After Flynn's painstaking management, Potato County already has wide roads, beautiful sculptures and fountains, prosperous markets and magnificent squares.
Whether it is health conditions, education conditions, entertainment conditions, trade conditions, etc., they are obviously beyond this era.
It has reached the standard of a beautiful city.
Therefore, Flynn has completed almost all the criteria for upgrading Tudou County from a county-level administrative center to a city-level administrative center ahead of schedule.
For Flynn, it just needs to go from 90 to 100 instead of starting from 0.
In this case, it's not too difficult.
Most of the conditions are almost OK.
Only one was left unfinished.
That's population.
Upgrading Tutu County to a city-level administrative center requires a minimum population of 300,000.
Let’s take a look at the rewards of [Mission: Big City in the North]: upgrade Tudou County’s main city to a city-level administrative center. After the mission is completed, the maximum number of brave links with the same population as the city-level administrative unit required will be rewarded.
In other words, once Tudou County is upgraded to a city, Flynn will be able to summon 300,000 brave men online at the same time!
This 300,000 population does not refer to the entire Da Tu Tu County, but to the population permanently resident in Tu Tu County itself.
In this era of low urbanization, the city's population is already quite limited.
The vast majority of the population lives in various villages and small towns.
Within the jurisdiction of Tudou County, the population under Flynn's management already exceeds 1.6 million.
But the population is spread over a vast land from the Plague Land to the Nine Mountains, a few thousand here, tens of thousands there.
Coupled with the various villages, scattered here and there.
The population living in the main city of Tudou County is only about 100,000.
After all, although Tudou County is the most developed and has the most job opportunities, it also has the highest cost of living.
Just buying a homestead in Tudou County requires a lot of money, and the level of consumption is also relatively high.
In addition, although Flynn intentionally developed some industrial and commercial factories and mines, it can be said that he cultivated a large number of working class.
But after all, in this era, farmers accounted for the majority of the population.
Farmers need land, and the land cannot be moved.
Farmers can't live in Tudou County and then travel long distances every day to farm their own farmland hundreds of kilometers away, right?
So in fact, most of the population under Flynn's jurisdiction still lives in vast rural areas and has not been transformed into an urban population.
If they didn't convert, Flynn could help them convert. Using small policies, Flynn moved nearly 200,000 people to Tudou County.
The policy is actually very simple, which is to expand the suburbs of Tudou County and incorporate the suburbs into the city's main system.
In addition, money is spent on infrastructure construction, and only indigenous workers are allowed instead of recruiting players.
In this way, many of the former Red Duke people who had migrated in and were temporarily landless were directly transformed into the urban industrial population.
The newly admitted population, plus the hundreds of thousands of people who had previously lived in Tudou County, easily pushed the permanent population of Tudou County to over 300,000.
It is not an easy task to urbanize so many people in a short period of time. If Flynn were to take charge personally, it would probably drive Flynn crazy.
Fortunately, Flynn only needs to make decisions.
Flynn thought about it himself, designed a rough road map, and then handed it over to his subordinates for execution.
Loyal and reliable NPC officials will guide the people to act according to Flynn's intentions.
In addition to NPCs, some talents have emerged under Flynn who can take on some positions, and they can also use their talents to serve Flynn.
For example, relocating the entire village to the headquarters of Tudou County requires the cooperation of local village elders.
In half a month, the resident population of Tutu County expanded to more than 300,000.
In this way, the system tasks were completed easily.
By all standards, Tudou County has met the requirements for upgrading to a city-level administrative center.
So Flynn decisively attacked and upgraded Potato County again!
What should the upgraded Tudou County be called?
At the beginning, Flynn had imagined that after the Potato Village was upgraded to an international metropolis, it would be called Potato City, Potato Kingdom, Potato Empire, etc.
At the time, Flynn didn't think there was anything wrong.
Anyway, there is nothing wrong with calling games entertainment.
But now, Flynn's status is different, and so is Flynn's mentality.
A dignified regional hegemon, the one the princes look up to, why do they still want to call him a potato?
It feels a little bit LOW!
Flynn wanted a more dignified and formal name.
Besides, according to Flynn's own inner ambition...
Perhaps it won't be too long before he officially becomes king.
By then, it can’t really be called the Potato Kingdom, right?
Although Flynn planned to change his name, as a modern man, Flynn still gave full play to modern democracy and enlightenment and made an official announcement.
It was announced that Tudou County would be upgraded to a city and its name would be changed.
The name of New Potato County after its upgrade will be determined based on everyone's votes. The alternative city names given by Flynn are:
A: Rose City - derived from the red and white rose mark of the Tesnilan family.
B: Beifeng City-Tudou Village is located in the northern border of the kingdom.
C: Super City - based on the name of the game "Superman Chronicles 2".
D: Iron Rose City - It is still based on the red and white rose mark of the Tesnilan family, but it also adds elements of the Iron Hill Kingdom.
In fact, if it were up to Flynn to choose, Flynn would prefer the name Iron Rose, which has elements of the Iron Hill Kingdom and the red and white roses of his own family.
At the same time, it sounds beautiful and strong, which is in line with the family tradition and can also be easily traced by outsiders.
Yes, after staying in this era for a long time, Flynn has become more and more concerned about these illusory things like family inheritance and glory.
The results of the vote did not satisfy Flynn.
Most of the players voted for the very modern name Super City.
What about the sense of immersion you talked about?
It's called Super City. Isn't this against the law?
More than 50% of the votes voted for C. Is it really true that C chose C?
