Chapter 359 New Buildings and Population Growth

The cold wind blew, and Ji Lin took a deep breath.

Behind him, the light stream fell, covering the territory that had experienced a whole warm autumn. The light stream from the system was not obvious in the sun, but it was stronger than before in the dark.

Bathing in the light rain.

The exhaled water vapor condensed into a fog composed of small water droplets visible to the naked eye in the low temperature, heralding the arrival of winter.

After checking all the rewards, he was sent back to the territory by the system from the void platform, and the system sent him to the square in front of the city hall.

One figure after another passed by him, and then one of them stopped in front of him.

"Lord, I will inform all units that they do not need to panic about the next era promotion, and then give them a day off."

Chongshan quickly saluted his lord, and at the same time reported his work at a speed so fast that Ji Lin could not hear clearly.

"Well, no problem, thank you."

Ji Lin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had not reminded his subordinates before the era promotion.

They now saw the city hall expanding along with its ancillary buildings in the light stream, and many people thought it was a new round of disasters or an enemy attack.

Ji Lin put all his energy into promotion, but ignored the fact that the people in the territory did not notice this matter.

Chongshan, who just reacted now, took people to various bulletin boards, and issued orders for temporary suspension of work in various production departments to avoid production losses due to the light stream of the era upgrade.

He watched Chongshan and a group of young people who had changed into black work clothes of government officials running out of the city hall, and silently wrote this problem in his notebook.

Don't make this mistake next time.

However, the territory seems to have a group of fairly qualified affairs officers/government officials.

Then slow down the time to receive the next batch of population and let Chongshan, the highest affairs officer of the territory, take two days off. After all, there will be a lot of work that needs him in the future.

Then Ji Lin will find a way to keep Alicia in the territory and let her handle government affairs with him. Perfect!

In this way, the government departments of the territory can continue to operate without exhausting people.

Ji Lin put away his thoughts, turned around and walked into the city hall that was still being upgraded by the system. There was still a lot of work that needed to be done by him - but he could also get a little relief from the pressure.

He could take a breath from the pressure of the times.

The territory had passed the promotion, and now it only needed to wait for the system to cast a beam to upgrade the people and some facilities.

From the handicraft era to the era of real large-scale use of machinery - steam engines.

Sitting back in his chair, looking at the territory still immersed in the light rain outside the window, the system was upgrading the bloodline and giving it to everyone equally.

Subhumans can enjoy some bonuses, but they are slightly inferior to pure humans.

Ji Lin opened the most important human resources interface for the territory, and a message from the system popped up.

'This round of population limit increase from 51,200/51,200 people to 204,800/204,800 people. ’

‘The manpower pool is 51,200. The monthly manpower will be drawn from the manpower pool, and the manpower pool will increase in proportion to the current population of the territory. Please coordinate the monthly population as appropriate. ’

Fifty thousand people, a quarter of the population limit.

If all 50,000 people arrive, the current population of the territory can be pushed to 70,000... The population limit of the territory has also been raised to 200,000...

Ji Lin tapped the table. After the fifth era, the additional buildings of the city hall are no longer limited to the few in the lower era... You can build buildings with a wider jurisdiction.

Then it’s time to add some more ancillary buildings to the city hall, some departments dedicated to accommodating foreign populations.

‘Manpower coordination department: The increase in population has made us start to consider the need for a unified organization to handle all this, so that we can better allocate every bit of human resources that the territory currently has, and allocate them according to each person’s resume and expertise. ’

‘Technology civilization exclusive-iteration enhancement: file processing speed increased by 20%. After you develop mechanical computer technology, you will immediately obtain an automatic tabulator, which will greatly increase the file processing speed of all departments. ’

‘Increase the speed of issuing orders in the production department by 20%, reduce human resource waste by 50%, and increase production efficiency by 5%. ’

‘Territory characteristics: divide the work into different areas, increase the production efficiency of each area by 10%, and reduce the cost of personnel transfer within the same area. ’

‘Population Management Bureau: In order to cope with the increasing population, we must set up a special government agency to deal with this problem. This process will be long, but we have started working. ’

‘Technology civilization exclusive-iteration enhancement: same as above’

‘Increase the speed of resettlement of foreign refugees by 33%, and reduce the increase in local crime caused by foreign immigrants by 30%. ’

‘Territory characteristics: heavy armed police force, reduce the crime problem caused by the influx of refugees by 50%. ’

So, when did I have a heavy armed police force... Did the territory guard get this evaluation just by allocating twelve steam spiders...

Ji Lin showed a strange expression.

But it is always good to get extra bonuses.

He pressed down the two buildings and let them be constructed in the light flow, and the city hall expanded together with the reshaping of the system.

The city hall is expanding, and the system directly decomposes the uninhabited houses around the city hall to leave enough space for the expansion of the city hall.

Put pen to paper and write down the information.

Then ask the dean to draw the sample and blueprint of the rifle within ten days, and then determine the material used for the barrel.

The barrel length, caliber, and thickness.

Ask the dean to work harder, and give him a vacation after this matter is over.

The material science of the territory is enough to manufacture standard rifled gun barrels, but it must occupy the machine tools of the steam factory for production. This is one of the reasons why Ji Lin has not used rifled guns.

Another point is that when rifled guns use lead bullets, there is still the problem of lead hanging. The softer metal will be taken away by the hard rifling in the rifling. It is quite troublesome to clean up the residual lead.

Regarding the problem of bullet shaping... Infantry weapons must be replaced from lead bullets to brass metal fixed bullets with higher penetration and hardness.

And metal bullets also need the dean...

Ji Lin has deployed two medium-sized copper mines in the territory with the strategic support permission. The overflow of the fifth era strategic support points is converted into two medium-sized copper mine veins in the territory.

Copper mines can also be found through external expansion, but the mining efficiency of copper mines that can be directly deployed on the surface of the territory is obviously higher.

Two medium-sized copper mines should be enough for the territory to survive the early stage of the fifth era.

Ji Lin stretched and sat on the chair waiting for the light flow outside to disappear.

The faint light flow fell and turned into source substance and poured into his body, significantly enhancing the physical fitness and spellcasting ability of this lord.
