Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 170 Yueyang
The leader's speech was like dropping a hot iron ball on solid ice.

First, the silence in the city melted like ice, and then the melted ice water was heated and boiled, sending turbulent waves outward at an alarming speed.

Rongcheng pioneering?Rongcheng pioneers!
Even though this matter has been leaked by various sources for a long time, even the vendors on Stone Street are discussing whether they should stick to Rong City or move to other cities if the development starts.

However, when Lu Youyou, the leader of Zhuwang Kingdom, came forward in person to make the news public, people were still shocked.

Rongcheng, pioneer!
According to historical records, during the 1200 years of the New Immortal Era, a total of 32 pioneering projects were carried out. Humanity almost completely victorious and expanded its territory to more than three times that of the initial period.

But this time, it was finally the turn of Rongcheng, the starting point of Bafang’s settlement.

The atmosphere at the tea table in Shifu was also warm.

Zhao Xiuwen said with great interest: "Have you heard what the king said!? Mozhou Fenghu! The end point of pioneering is Fenghu! I have heard of that place, and it is recorded in the ninth edition of "Mozhou Chronicles" revised by later generations. Juan is the habitat of the Fire Phoenix Clan, which is most feared by the three Demonic Sects in Mozhou. It is said that it was once the most beautiful place in the entire Mozhou."

Wang Luo nodded: "I've been there once, and the scenery is really good."

"..." Zhao Xiuwen suddenly became speechless. Zhou Lu sneered beside him, "You like to show off, don't you?"

Afterwards, Shi Yue asked curiously: "What are you going to do if Rongcheng wants to move?"

Zhao Xiuwen said: "I just study and practice honestly, what else can I do? Wherever the academy is, we will be there. We came all the way from Nanxiang to Rongcheng. We can't go back to our hometown just because Rongcheng has moved. ?”

Zhou Lu said: "Anyway, it will take at least two or three years from the start of the land reclamation project to the official start of the project. 100 years ago, Yueyang's northwest journey took three years from the announcement of the land reclamation to the city's rise. And The scale of Rong City is five or six times larger than that of Dinghuang City in Yueyang, so what the Lord of the Kingdom announced may simply be a ten-year plan, and when it comes time for Rong City to move..."

However, before he finished speaking, the content of the projection in mid-air changed again.

After a brief speech, Lu Youyou left the scene calmly, leaving the protagonist's position to his most confidant: Mo Yu, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Mo Yu, on the other hand, stood at the speech position with great grace and announced with a magnetic voice: On behalf of the country's leader, she would commend Governor Han Guming for his hard work in the past ten years. He has laid a solid foundation for the development of Rongcheng. This enables the process of pioneering to be greatly advanced.

In two years at most, this giant city, home to tens of millions of people, will set off for the wilderness.

This news once again caused an uproar among the audience, because it really happened much faster than expected.

"Two years? Really?" Zhao Xiuwen was surprised. "It's too fast! Two years later, I'll only be in school for one year, and I won't even have the opportunity to study abroad. Don't I have to move with you?"

Zhou Lu said angrily: "It seems like you are already sure of taking the admission exam next year!"

But she was also a little curious. In two years... was Rongcheng really ready?

At this moment, it was at the tea table that an inconspicuous person... but who should have been quite conspicuous answered her doubts. "I know a thing or two about this matter."

As a soft and gentle voice sounded, several people's eyes couldn't help but focus on the man. They saw that he was wearing a simple and elegant white background with gold pattern, his gray hair was neatly combed behind his head, and he sat in a dignified and upright posture. Every detail is like the elegant gentleman in the story.Only the little details between the eyebrows and eyes carry the vicissitudes of time and the suffering of the past.

It was under Gu Shishi's training that Qin Yu was completely transformed.

"Junior sister Gu told me that the matter of pioneering has been included in high-level planning a long time ago. At least the governor himself has really been preparing for it for more than ten years. It is only in the past year or two that the news of pioneering has gradually spread to the public. The first level of Bolanzhuang, and then people realized that many of the governor’s layouts were for the purpose of pioneering.”

After a pause, Qin Yu seemed a little uncomfortable with the suddenly focused gaze, but he still insisted on standing upright, maintaining a straight posture, and told his friends at the same table what he had seen.

"For example, during the few days when the general manager arrived, the governor's palace mobilized the whole city to put up a three-dimensional array of auspicious spirit deer. This was actually to invite the general manager to parade: under his management, Rongcheng has become like a building block model, as if it were an arm. It means that within a day or two, a vivid three-dimensional shape can be formed. This is the key foundation for the city to start heading west."

As soon as these words came out, several people were suddenly stunned.

Zhao Xiuwen nodded and said: "I see. I would like to say that although Governor Han keeps a low profile, he still has the status of governor, and he will not bow down to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs... It turns out it is a military parade."

Qin Yu further explained: "It is said that the auspicious spirit deer formation was also ordered by the Lord of the Kingdom, otherwise... it would not have that shape."

Zhou Lu laughed and said: "Haha, that's true! I was still surprised at the time. It is said that people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs hate others discussing the true identity of the king. How come Han Guming dared to turn Rongcheng into a spiritual deer in front of Mo Yu? The shape! Isn’t this an in-person provocation!”

During the discussion, the manager Mo Yu also ended his brief speech and solemnly handed a Jade Branch Medal to Han Guming's hand.

At the same time, a burst of warm applause came from the projection area, and the perspective moved away from Mo Yu and Han Guming, gradually zooming away behind them.

The venue for the investiture ceremony was chosen in the ceremonial garden of the Governor's Mansion. In addition to the tall Rong Terrace in the middle of the garden, there were also several grand lotus terraces planted around it. There were hundreds of famous people from Rong City on the lotuses. , sitting or standing, witnessed Governor Han Guming receiving the Jade Branch Medal for the second time in 500 years of his family, and applauded to celebrate.

Among the people watching the ceremony, Wang Luo saw some quite unfamiliar faces.

They occupied a lotus platform alone and wore relatively uniform styles, but they were completely different from Zhu Wang's clothes.

Wang Luo asked: "What do they do?"

This time, it was Shi Yue who answered: "They are Yueyang people, and they should have been invited to watch the ceremony. Look at the thick belts around their waists, which are the Yueyang people's signature clothing."

Qin Yuze further explained: "It is said that this time, Rongcheng will use Dinghuang City in Yueyang as the fulcrum, and the Ningyuan Pavilion in the two places will be connected to each other, so we specially invited a group of high-level officials from Yueyang to come. After that , there should be more people from Yueyang entering Rong City, and people from Rong City may also be transferred to Yueyang. A hundred years ago, when the desolate tide rolled back in Yueyang, the one who contributed the most among the reinforcements of the Immortal Alliance was Zhu Wang, and the two We have had good relations with each other for more than a hundred years, and if the development of Rongcheng is successful this time, the people of Yueyang will also benefit greatly."
