Chapter 198 Son of the Dragon(1/2)
It has to be said that Levi's behavior at this moment is a typical empty-handed wolf no matter which world he is placed in.
But it just so happens that the relatively simple people of this world just buy it.
Because the measurement of the value of something, especially housing prices, is often determined based on people's expectations.
Cake lures the children to help Levi distribute flyers.
The rewards the children were cashed in attracted more attention.
The cheap mushroom delivery on the flyer attracted enough people.
The gathering of people made the merchants in the North feel that they had discovered a business opportunity, and they all decided to pay a deposit in advance to give it a try. Anyway, it wasn't as stated in the contract that it could be refunded.
The cash flow endorsement of the businessmen guaranteed the wages of workers that Levi promised to pay.
So the people at the bottom who originally just wanted to take advantage of the mushrooms started to have thoughts that they didn't have before when they saw a lot of gold coins flowing into Li Wei's pocket.
Even after I got the mushrooms and made the application form with the receipt mark, I still stayed nearby and watched because of the turmoil in my heart.
This has led to the unprecedented scene of empty streets at Wolqiao Port.
Here, an almost perfect cycle is formed.
Coupled with the current situation of Silvermoon City’s food crisis as the background.
Directly leading to a surge in the potential investment value of this yet-to-be-built city!
It has also led to an unprecedented increase in the number of people who are willing to go to Silvery Moon City to find ‘happiness’.
It can be said that in order to increase the new population and increase the cash flow on hand, Levi has really done everything he can.
No way
Once the trade routes between Zeelandia and the surface were cut off, mineral sales, which had been the main source of income, plummeted. It was not possible to rely solely on blood transfusions from the Jade God Toy Manufacturing Company.
Fortunately, the upper and lower phases of the Beiyou Tunnel and the underground satellite city are now nearing completion, so there is no need to risk breaking the capital chain and start four projects at the same time.
But for the time being, we can’t spare any more cash to build the white city ‘Minas Tirith’ on the surface.
Therefore, it is imperative to raise funds to prepare for the first phase of the project.
What he didn't expect was that the merchants in Corell were very receptive to the sales method he came up with, and even many middle-class people from Silvermoon City also participated.
What should I do if I don’t have that much spare capital? Let’s bring some friends and relatives together.
As a result, the map of off-the-plan properties above the port was filled with marks, and even many prime locations had multiple marks.
Levi saw that he quickly entered his own seller's market. He did not choose to sit down and raise the price, which would easily attract hatred, so he chose to share the hatred.
Auction mode is enabled for properties in areas with competitors
As soon as they heard about the auction, all the participants turned on the breath-taking mode.
The auction will inevitably result in them having to pay more unbudgeted funds.
But they are all familiar with this model! And overall it is relatively fair.
It's a pity that communication these days is basically based on shouting, and this kind of grand event comes so suddenly that they can't connect in series to distribute the benefits with the minimum bid.
On the side, there were two confident guys, Levi and Calvin, who kept using [Blark Words] and [Psychic Illusion] to drive up the price in the crowd.
Even if there were magicians in the crowd who noticed the spell fluctuations, they selectively ignored it under Calvin's [Group Psychic Suggestion].
Just kidding, Calvin is now a 17th level psionic master.
Therefore, in this situation where there is mental arithmetic but no intention, as long as the spiritual attainments are not as high as his, there is basically no solution.
And the one who can take care of these two has just returned to the Supreme Palace.
If they were placed at Blue Star, the two of them would have been invited to the bureau for tea because of illegal operations.
On the other end, Luo Jiali also completed the registration of immigration intention with the assistance of Calvin's [Psychic Puppet].
This job is not difficult, and according to Calvin's judgment, although Luo Jiali's mental development is obviously slow because she is an elf, this does not mean that she is stupid, and she is even far smarter than ordinary people.
The preliminary statistical results far exceeded Li Wei's expectations.
Because of the disaster in the Northland, one-third of the refugees alone have officially submitted immigration applications, and at least 800 of them are orphans who lost their parents during the war.
Facing a total of 13,000 immigration applications, Levi also had happy worries.
He really wanted to take all these people away, but the problem was that the ship could only add two thousand more people if it was full.
Still crowded with people.
"How about we rent a few more merchant ships in Silver Moon City?" Calvin suggested secretly.
Levi shook his head and said: "No, if we create such a big scene, Alustriel will definitely be staring at us fiercely in the Supreme Palace now. If we do that, she will not be able to sit still. I'm afraid by then
Except for the original refugees on the boat, we can’t take anyone with us.”
The massive loss of population is an immeasurable potential loss to any city-state or even country.
Population wars are still prevalent even in Blue Star.
This can be seen from the various household registration policies in major cities.
They are like gluttonous beasts, constantly swallowing up talents from resource-based cities, third- and fourth-tier small cities, and towns, making them a part of their own flesh and blood cells.
Talents are educational resources, medical resources, scientific research resources, and are the foundation of all development.
"What should we do?" Calvin was also confused.
He has followed Li Wei for so long, so he naturally knows the importance of population!
Nowadays, the new city is in ruins and waiting to be rebuilt. It needs people to build the city, to cultivate the land, to build the new army, and to build the factories of all walks of life!
If the population is always lacking, everything will be slow.
Because the population itself is constantly creating wealth, and only after receiving taxes can we do more things.
Levi sighed, "Are we going to reach this point after all? Let's draw lots. When I was preparing to do this, I prepared a plan for this situation. All applications are numbered.
"Just draw 2,800. The 2,000 will be randomly selected. The 823 orphans will be operated in secret. I will find another way to pack them up and take them away."
Calvin's mouth twitched, but he still strictly followed Levi's will.
When the decision was announced, the crowd instantly burst into an uproar.
‘Are there actually so many people willing to immigrate?’ This is the thought in most people’s minds.
As a result, many people who were still hesitant suddenly regretted it.
Most intelligent creatures have similar habits.
When faced with matters in areas that are unfamiliar to them, most people will choose to wait and see first.
But opportunities in life are often fleeting.
Because many scammers also create this kind of 'life-changing' opportunity.
But there are also different types of ‘liars’.
For example, Levi at this moment
For example, Blue Star’s Jack Ma back then
and many entrepreneurs.
They all have one thing in common.
They have 'deceived' themselves and are convinced of the path they have chosen.
I believe that I am indeed creating a life-changing opportunity for others, and are working together on a great cause to gain "happiness".
But most of them failed on the road to success.
Only the little one who succeeds in standing at the top of the pyramid will be well-known by people, and even be called daddy.
At this moment, Li Wei also thought so.
Why did he lie?
Hasn't the construction of the White City on the banks of the Sebring River already begun?
As for those Northland businessmen who buy houses and shops, as long as they insist on their choice, they will never get a refund!
So in the future, when Baicheng really has the scale of the advertised off-plan building and even radiates to the surrounding areas to form a giant city-state that Corel has never seen before, they can earn hundreds of times by collecting rent from their houses.
The same goes for those immigrants. They will become the first developers of cities like Shen Town, and they will also be the group of people facing many life choices and opportunities!
As long as they continue unswervingly on this road full of countless possibilities,
You will definitely be able to reap your own happiness.
Levi believed so firmly.
With the successful completion of the lottery ceremony, the broken ship was completely filled to the brim.
The more than 800 orphans stood at the port with blank faces, staring blankly at the ship that couldn't even fit a dog.
"Children, do you want to see magic?" Levi asked with a smile.
"Think!" Although the children were confused, it did not stop them from looking forward to seeing the magic.
