Chapter 222 New City Construction Plan

While the elves were busy dealing with the aftermath issue, we were discussing how to solve the construction of new cities.

The current volume and coverage area of ​​the Tree of Life have exceeded the standard, and it is impossible for us to build a circle of cities along its peripheral area. Because the larger the radius of the circle, the faster its area will increase. So although the current coverage radius of the Tree of Life seems to have only expanded by more than three times, if we still build the city according to the previous method, the area of ​​the city will be more than just three times.

Faced with such a large tree of life, we must think of some solutions to solve it.

In Aisinger's conference room, we opened three-dimensional imaging while playing the overall structure of the Tree of Life and the three-dimensional topographic map of the nearby area while discussing the construction of the city.

Hongyue was the first to ask: "The first thing we need to decide now is whether the area of ​​the city needs to be expanded, right?"

Sumei said: "The bigger the city, the more competitive it is, but the increase in area is probably not proportional to the increase in competitiveness. If I estimate it well, this comparison may be a positive and mysterious curve, so we need to know whether the current urban area is suitable for continued expansion before we can draw a conclusion."

"I think we should consider the money first?" Jin Qin said: "The original city size was already very large. If we continue to expand, will our guild have enough funds? I think we remember that the proportion of funds in our guild was planned in advance. If there is such a large investment now, will our other projects not be affected? Besides, our working capital may not be enough, right?"

Rose shook her head and said, "The funds are enough, but the problem is still the one Sumei said. Is it necessary for us to expand the city? Sometimes it is not necessarily big, it's better!"

"It's useless for us to guess like this." I looked up and asked, "Martial God, I seem to remember Rose's economic model, you know it, right?"

The voice of the God of War sounded above our heads: "I have recorded the relevant data. Do I need me to do anything?"

"Help to calculate it. See if the city scale expands, what is the optimal urban area? Is it already exceeding the standard now?"

The God of War's answer was very quick. "The relevant data were seriously insufficient, and I could not make an accurate judgment."

"The insufficient parts are all calculated fuzzyly. We only need a rough range and not that accurate."

The War God paused for a while this time, and then said: "The current coverage radius of the Tree of Life is 32.8 kilometers. According to my comparative analysis of the data I have mastered, the optimal urban area in South America should be less than 3,000 square kilometers. That is to say, even if the urban space is no longer expanded, the current area is seriously beyond the reasonable range."

"In this case, what needs to be solved is not the problem of urban funds, but the problem of urban area." Rose said: "The coverage of the Tree of Life is seriously beyond expectations. Now we can only make two choices. One is to build a city on the Tree of Life, like the medium-sized elf cities in China, to build the entire city on the Tree of Life. The advantage of this is that it is more elf-style and the city will look more simple, but at present, everyone may still prefer a dreamy elf city. However, if you need to build a dreamy elf city, it is absolutely not possible to simply follow this now. However, if you expand the city, it will exceed the rationalization range of the city. Too large cities will increase our burden, and the benefits will not increase the multiple kills, which is not cost-effective."

"What about the second option you mentioned?"

"The second choice is a little more troublesome." Rose said: "Before I came back, I had already communicated with Polesephone. The area of ​​the Tree of Life is not fixed. As a special plant, the Tree of Life can actually self-regulate to a certain extent. To put it simply, the Tree of Life can actively shrink its coverage area and make room for us to build a city."

"This method sounds pretty good, but since you put it second, that's what this method is flawed, right?"

Rose admitted directly when she heard my question: "Indeed, there is a very serious problem, that is, the Tree of Life can indeed change its shape according to our requirements, but this process will not be as rapid as an animal changes its body posture. With the ability of the Tree of Life, it may be as long as three to four months to adjust it to the size and loading we need. And until it is fully adjusted, we cannot start building the city."

"Three to four months? How much money will it take to accumulate?" Although Hongyue was not in charge of the economy, she was in charge of a guild before becoming the vice president of our guild, so she could still see such a simple funding problem.

"The backlog of funds is second." Rose said: "You all know that the Tree of Life is not a simple production unit. Although it can generate many valuable resources, it is in a static state. Once the Tree of Life enters the active state, its consumption will even exceed most animals. Considering that it is so large, its consumption will be very amazing. And I have learned from the elves. The recipe of the Tree of Life is very single. In addition to the sunlight, moonlight and free energy in nature, the only thing that can be absorbed is the essence of life."

"The essence of life? That thing is priceless!" Eagle exclaimed.

Rose shrugged helplessly, and then said, "I have no other way to eat this tree of life."

I folded my hands and placed them under my jaw to support my head, then frowned and thought, and only spoke until Rose finished saying this: "I think this second solution can be given up directly. There are too many disadvantages. Even if I expand the city and create a city that is not optimal, it is much better than this."

After listening to my words, Rose himself said: "So I think this method is not as good as the first method."

"But isn't it too monotonous to build a city directly on the Tree of Life?" Hongyue said: "Everyone in China should have gone to play with the elves in China? The style of simply replacing the entire city with a tree is actually only the first time I saw it. I feel it's pretty monotonous after a long time. I don't think it's suitable."

"We have personnel in urban planning and landscape design, right?" I suddenly asked.

The War God quickly replied: "There are people like this, and there are special departments responsible for this. Do I need to call the supervisors of the two departments?"

I thought about it and nodded, "I inform them about it."

The two responsible personnel arrived very quickly and appeared in the office in less than three minutes. The two responsible personnel happened to be a man and a woman, and one was a player and the other was an NPC. The management of our guild is not all players, and there are also capable people among the NPCs, and there are quite a few.

The man is an NPC, mainly responsible for urban planning. This department is not very suitable for players. The main reason is that this position has high professional knowledge requirements, not that you can do it well if you are interested. Moreover, due to certain special environments or rules in the game, there will be more things to pay attention to than in reality. At the same time, some issues that need to be paid attention to in reality have become irrelevant in the game. Because of these differences, even if the real city planners still cannot directly plan the city in the game. On the contrary, NPCs living in the game must have a much more thorough understanding of the world they live in than players, so the cities they set up are often much better than players.

Another woman is a player of the guild. She is a non-combat profession and specializes in landscape design. According to the God of Military Affairs, she is an anime artist in reality. In other words, landscape design is actually the same as her profession, at least it is a similar profession.

"President, is there anything wrong with asking us?" The female player asked first. As a player, she is more casual than NPC. After all, for players, the president is just like the Kids King. If you say that the status is definitely higher than that of the members, it is really hard to say how strong the binding force is for members. After all, if you are too impatient, you will lose an account. Although you are too anxious, you will give up. Therefore, players don't care about the senior guild leaders. For example, our guilds are relatively strong, so they have high cohesion. Members respect the president and the senior guild leaders very much. In other guilds, especially those weak guilds, members actually don't care about the members. Many small guilds have strong member mobility. For those who have guilds who have changed their guilds every few days, it is a ghost to respect their president.

In comparison, NPC situations are different. NPCs cannot leave the game. For them, the game world is reality and everything. Therefore, for NPCs, the president of their own guild is actually similar to the ancient emperors, and it is even more exaggerated. After all, the emperor is subject to a group of ministers and rules of each party. On the contrary, the president of the player guild is much less restricted. So for NPCs, the president is a more terrifying existence than the emperor, and he needs to be absolutely careful to serve.

"You two come and sit down first." I asked them to sit in the two temporarily added positions, and then said to the God of War: "Introduce them about the current situation."

The God of War quickly explained to the two people the problems we are facing in South America, the situation of the Tree of Life and the two plans mentioned by Rose before. After the God of War finished speaking, I said to them: "The second of the two plans that Rose had previously mentioned has been rejected by us. Now we have basically decided to adopt the first plan, that is, build a city based on the Tree of Life. But we do not want the city to have only a simple big tree there, which is too monotonous. We need a gorgeous, dreamy, and of course natural elves. Our city will be a tourist city, which is a hub and a sign, so we cannot make it look bare. Do you understand what I mean?"

After I said that, both of them nodded, and the female player first asked me to give them some time, and then she left the conference hall with the NPC. After they left, we had to discuss some other things first, and the two designers didn't come back until more than an hour later.

"President, we have already thought of a solution." The female player was still speaking.

"Tell me, look."

The female player immediately asked, "Can the God of War cooperate with us? I know he can simulate three-dimensional images."

I nodded and agreed to ask the Military God for help. Then the other party turned around and shouted outside the door, and then saw several NPCs walking in with a bunch of drawings. This female player worked with the NPC planner next to him and the NPCs who came in later for a long time before letting the Military God scan all the drawings. After getting through these, she returned to the front of the table, then coughed twice before officially starting the introduction.

"God of War."

With her voice, the current appearance of the Tree of Life was projected again above the conference table in the center of the conference hall, and this three-dimensional image was still spinning slowly.

After the image appeared, she immediately said: "This is the current situation of the Tree of Life. It looks a bit monotonous, and the root system structure on the ground is not suitable for the establishment of urban ground facilities. This is very bad."

"What are you going to do?"

The female player snapped her fingers, and the three-dimensional projection immediately moved horizontally, and it was obvious that a place in the outer area of ​​the Tree of Life was highlighted and a long bright line was highlighted. She pointed to the picture and said, "The highlight of the river you see now is a river. I heard that the president had specially thought of a way to solve this problem because of this river."

I nodded and said, "Yes, this river is prone to flooding during the rainy season. If we accidentally build our city, we will become a vast ocean. So we thought of a way to bring the river water into the ground so that we don't have to worry about flooding. Could it be that you have the idea of ​​this river?"

What I didn't expect was that the female player actually said: "Yes, I just like this river. Our current city scope has been completely covered by the Tree of Life. If you want to adjust it, the project volume will be very huge. So I thought of this river."

"Then your consciousness is…?"

"Use large-scale spells to sink the entire area where the Tree of Life is located, seal the underground water diversion channel that was excavated before, increase the terrain around the Tree of Life, reorganize the river channel at the turn of the river, and force the river to divert the route into our city."

"I x, then isn't our city a vast ocean?"

"What we want is a vast ocean. Since we cannot do a large-scale renovation of the ground, why not just build a water city?"

"Aquatic City?" Everyone present was stunned when they heard this term. (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!)
