Chapter two hundred and seventy fifth fog(1/3)

On the eighth day of the eighth month of the 629th year of the country, the administrative hall of Wuniao City of the country.

Looking at the municipal building surrounded by solemn and graceful workmanship, and without a crack even in the aftermath of the attack, Gu Xiaoren couldn't help but nodded secretly.

What a conscientious facility!

Most of the buildings in the entire city collapsed, but the administrative hall in front of me remained standing and never damaged at all. It is worthy of being a landmark building in Wuniao City. Its structure is strong and exquisite shape is worthy of being a model in the architecture!

Wuniao City is affiliated to Donghara Province and originally started with handicrafts. The handicraft textile industry was once a pillar of the local industry. After the rapid development of industry, it was immediately replaced by industrialized textiles invested by large factories around the country. This led to Wuniao City's total economic output in the eastern plains has always been the lowest, the fiscal budget is insufficient, the aging of municipal facilities is unsustainable, and even serious social problems such as population loss have occurred.

Of course, these are probably some appearances.

Although Wuniao City has no estuary, Dongyuan Road is based on the sea. In the context of this world of great navigation, the economic convenience of relying on the sea can be imagined. Moreover, Wuniao City has taken the lead in building a railway hub, and its shipping and army are not weak. No matter how you look at it, it should not lag behind other surrounding cities. But in fact, it is not only unable to compare with the surrounding cities, but even the cities in the central and western regions cannot catch up.

The most important reason for this problem is probably related to the discovery of a "Nuo" (nuo four tones) mine in the outskirts of Wuniao City more than 120 years ago.

What kind of mine is this?

It is basically an underground ore related to occultism, which involves certain specific occult materials.

If the veins of the initial industrial heart like coal may have driven the local economy due to mining, but it is a "Nuo" mine. The difficulty of mining and the danger of the process have reached the point where ordinary people cannot avoid it.

And the output is extremely low, which means that if you want to mine this kind of ore, it is bound to require large-scale mining, and it is not suitable for ordinary people to mine, because during the mining process, you may encounter certain factors in extraordinary fields, resulting in mental interference such as cognitive impairment.

Therefore, this thing probably needs some special extraordinary people to mine it personally.

The mining of "Nuo" mines cannot bring any benefits to ordinary people, so it will naturally not drive the local economy. Moreover, this mining behavior will also lead to huge changes in the geological structure, resulting in a certain degree of pollution of the surrounding land, and even the inability to plant some cash crops on a large scale. Even if it is planted, it will not be able to obtain a bumper harvest.

Logically speaking, the discovery of this special and harmful ore is either prohibited from developing, or it is subject to compensation for the damage caused by geology, local economy, and farming during the development process.

However, this kind of thing did not happen in Wuniao City.

Because the "Nuo" ore was not only mined in large quantities, but even the words such as compensation were not even a dime, let alone moving away from the entire Wuniao Market.

Perhaps the migration of Wuniao City may cause considerable economic losses, which leads to miners watching the wall and allowing the entire city to gradually age.

In the past 100 years, Wuniao City has experienced 92 earthquakes of all sizes, almost once a year on average. In the face of such frequent geological changes, what buildings will not age? What kind of buildings can withstand such severe geological losses?

Coupled with land pollution, the surrounding crop yields are damaged, resulting in most of the food in the entire Wuniao City being imported from outside.

Well, under this situation, the urban structure of Wuniao City has aging and a large population has flowed out. It has even dropped from 600,000 people with registered household registration seventy years ago to 110,000 today. With the continuous emergence of vicious cycles, the city's finances are naturally struggling.

This shows that the impact of mining "Nuo" ore on Wuniao City is still quite large.

Wuniao City has not mentioned these issues to Dongharadao. Even the Executive Yuan’s Reconstruction Bureau has received relevant proposals more than once, but most of them have been left alone in the end.

Well, there are naturally some guys who interfere in this.

Mr. Gu Xiaoren appeared here and wanted to help Wuniao citizens rebuild their homes. It was definitely not because His love was overflowing, nor because He meddled with other people's business, but simply because the miner was the Dai family of Dongyuan Dao.

Dai Jinan's ancestor, the family of the Zhenjun Dai.

It is obvious that I don’t know which “just person” learned about this situation. During the attack on Mr. Gu Xiaoren, he even paralyzed the underground system of the “Nuo” mine.

Well, of course, this kind of thing must have nothing to do with Mr. Gu Xiaoren. While he was just and swearing to bring the "attacker" to justice, he admitted that "I will not kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me." If the "attacker" had not attacked him Gu Xiaoren in a crazy manner and caused a devastating blow to the underground system and geological structure of the "Nuo" mine during the war, it would not have caused the cracked Wuniao City to make it worse.

Gu Xiaoren admitted that he was ashamed of his fellow villagers, so he promised to help all citizens rebuild their homes and build a better tomorrow together.

The administrative hall occupied by the magpie's nest. Mr. Gu Xiaoren interfered in the agency and established a post-disaster reconstruction working group and issued a series of instructions.

Although Wuniao City’s administrative system is very dissatisfied, it is not dared to show it.

If it were in the secular world, Gu Lao Er's behavior was probably worth a drink, but who made him a demigod? In the extraordinary world where power is supreme, a legendary creature came to the Wuniao City. Without the interference of other legendary creatures, His words were oracles, and His actions were miracles.

Special treatment is special, this is the clear rule against local governments during the war.

The moment Wuniao City was attacked by legendary creatures, Wuniao City had already entered a wartime state. As the highest person, Gu Xiaoren was the supreme ruler of Wuniao City without the arrival of the great king.

"...Xiao Wang, there are 30,000 tents in the Dongdamen Hutong warehouse, which must be distributed without being left. There are also rice, flour, grain, oil, and daily necessities for transportation. It must be registered and distributed in a timely manner to avoid the situation where someone can fill his bags. Also, tell the head of the public security system to maintain the safety of the distribution site."

"Ambassador, the guards have arrived in Wuniao City!"

"That's great, how many people have come?"

"The guards have a total of 1,246 people."

"Take it to Nanshan for logging and prepare it as building materials. By the way, I inform the exploration team that it is necessary to find out the groundwater source before dark and strive to drill 200 wells within three days to ensure the safety of the people's water use."

Xiao Wang couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard this. He wanted to speak but stopped, but thought about the miserable appearance of Ambassador Gu who was thrown down from the top floor because of his slacking off work. Well, the words in his mouth couldn't help but stuff them back.

At worst, let those extraordinary groups work overtime!

After all, it's better than losing your life.

Now the entire Wuniao City is in wartime, and Gu Lao Er is really killing without blinking!

...

...

Gu Xiaoren is carrying out drastic post-disaster reconstruction work in Wuniao City, but the first one who can't sit still is the Executive Yuan Post-disaster Reconstruction Bureau.

Yes, this should have been their life.

But you, Gu Lao Er, have done all their work, what are they doing?

To this end, after receiving the news, the Reconstruction Bureau immediately set up a working group and rushed over from the fog without stopping.

"Ambassador Gu!"

Well, Gu Laoer was still ambassador of the original country to Dongxialai Country. Although there were rumors that he was going to be promoted to vice president, there was no explicit statement from the Executive Yuan, so in the official title, he was still ambassador Gu.

"While giving up, aren't you busy? You don't have the eyesight."

This is in a ruin in Wuniao City. Gu Laoer rolled his sleeves to his elbow and was carrying a log to build a new house with a group of reconstruction personnel.

That's right, although the creation of a French style allows Gu Xiaoren to build a large group of blanks in a short period of time, this blank is just a main structure and needs to be re-treaded. If the subsequent construction period is included, it's better to start over.

Of course, the most important thing is that the donkeys in the production team are not so useful.

If He built a new black bird market in one day, how could he knock on some existing bamboo poles?

Moreover, the houses you have worked hard to build are very different from those that emerge overnight. After all, the buildings you personally participate in are still full of some special significance.

Well, He can't make up any more.

But these are not important at all. What is important is that you can't imagine the joy of participating in labor!

The working people are the most glorious!

"Give up."

Under the eyes of several well-dressed, well-dressed guys who looked a little like social elites, Gu Xiaoren frowned and then jumped over their heads.

A child with snot bubbles sat not far away and sniffed and said, "It's over, these people will never grow taller!"

"Hahaha……"

A child's unintentional words suddenly made the entire construction site burst into laughter.

Some well-dressed guys had a slightly gray face.

On the tenth day of August, Ji Chengzu from the Executive Yuan Post-Disaster Reconstruction Bureau came to Wuniao City.

This is a thin man who looks about thirty years old, but those who know Him probably know that this guy is at least 100 years old. After all, this is one of the new demigods in the original country over the past century, and he is a famous newcomer in the original country.

Well, although the word "newcomer" has been frequently refreshed into new records in recent decades, it is still the newcomer in the past!

This newcomer is listening to his subordinates' reports on this matter.

"...What? After a few days, you haven't seen Ambassador Gu yet?"

"Director, I saw it, but Ambassador Gu ignored us." The subordinate said with his head down.

"Where is He?"

“On the construction site.”

“Construction site?”

Ji Chengzu looked at some of his good-dressed subordinates with deep meaning, especially on their neat and gorgeous clothes.

"Well, if I were Ambassador Gu, I probably wouldn't be willing to pay attention to you." He rolled up his sleeves and said lightly: "Those who know know understand that you are here to provide disaster relief, and those who don't know think you are here to inspect."

"Director..."

"lead the way."

"ah?"

"What, go to the construction site!"

On this day, several strange "forced workers" suddenly appeared in the new construction site, especially the guy in the lead. He was very strong and could easily carry the half-ton of huge rocks by himself. Then, while stirring the foundation, he was also guiding the people around him to make such a good or bad structure. It can be seen that this guy should be a person who understands architecture.

On this day, the progress of the new house seemed to be moving forward a little.

When night fell, the personnel responsible for logistics support brought food, big pot rice, two dishes and one soup, enough portions, and meat.

This is probably the happiest time period for many ordinary people, after all, there is meat to eat.

Gu Xiaoren sat on the building rock, drinking soup in a porcelain bowl while watching the bright moon slowly rising.

Well, I don’t know if there will be Chang’e in the whole world and whether there will be Jade Rabbit in the moon. If so, the spicy rabbit head may be a good choice.

Thinking of this, He couldn't help but drink another sip of soup.
