"City Lord, in this case, I need to stop all construction projects in the buffer city and concentrate all my efforts on building this boiler room.

In addition, equipment installation and pipeline installation also require manpower. At present, there are not enough manpower. I need you to give me more manpower."

The total population of Da Zhangshu Base now reaches 7,700.

There are more than 2,000 combatants in the three major divisions, including the Operations Division, the Civil Arms Division, and the Security Division.

There are a total of 1,000 agricultural planters, livestock farms, industrial and other factory workers.

There are also 300 people scattered at outposts and mines outside.

There were more than 1,000 people going out to search for supplies, plus transportation personnel.

There are also various internal affairs staff, totaling 500 people.

There are less than 2,000 workers dedicated to construction in the buffer city.

This is in sharp contrast to the abundant human resources in Oil City.

In Oil City, excluding the population of Oil City, there are over 100,000 fourth- and fifth-level personnel in the trading market alone.

A population gap of more than ten times.

Li Yu felt a little sad after hearing Ding Jiu talk about the shortage of manpower.

In the past two years, in order to support the development of the Oil City Trading Market and the two northern regions, the headquarters base has sent too many people there.

Not to mention anything else, just the combat personnel, there are 500 people on the northern side.

There are more than a thousand people in Oil City.

Also, when the trading market was initially established, 1,500 level 4 partners were supported.

When production resumed in the north, 300 people were also sent there.

Together with expert technicians from all walks of life,

All added up, the headquarters base has transported at least 4,000 people to the two sub-bases.

4,000 people!

There are currently relatively few survivors around the Da Zhangshu Base. Since Guangdong Province in the south and Fujian Province in the east are close to the sea, they have been greatly affected by natural disasters, and the number of survivors is relatively small.

As for Oil City, which is located in the Central Plains region, the population was relatively dense before the end of the world. In addition, it is located in the Central Plains, and there are survivors in the east, west, north and south, so it is relatively easy to absorb the population.

After the Oil City was built with the trading bazaar, it began to vigorously promote it, and the effect of attracting the population was remarkable.

There is no publicity at the Da Zhangshu Base, and everything depends on the survivors who join in naturally, so the population growth is extremely slow.

"It's time for the Oil City to support the Da Zhangshu Base." Li Yu thought to himself.

Just who should be allowed to trade in the market requires careful thinking.

"City Lord?" Ding Jiu couldn't help but remind him when he saw Li Yu was lost in thought.

Li Yu collected his thoughts, thought for a while and said to Ding Jiu:

"How many people do you need to complete the task within a month?"

Ding Jiu said: "There are currently less than 2,000 construction personnel on the construction site. If the construction is to be completed within a month, give me at least 2,000 more people."

"OK."

Li Yu nodded and said: "No problem, I will find a way to get you at least two thousand people within five days!"

Hearing that the city lord agreed, Ding Jiu and Qian Zheng looked at Li Yu in surprise, 2,000 people!

Not 20 people!

Five days, how could we find 2,000 people in such a short period of time?

The two looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. They didn't know where Li Yu planned to find the 2000 people.

"Okay, hurry up and push this matter forward. As for the water plant, the Minister of Industry will come and take over. You can hand it over when the time comes."

After Li Yu finished speaking, he quickly left here.

Qian Zheng looked at Li Yu's leaving figure and asked Ding Jiu doubtfully:

"Chief Engineer, where did the city lord find these 2,000 people?"

Ding Jiu shook his head, "I don't know either...Huh? No."

An idea flashed across his mind, and he remembered the news he heard from Song Min two days ago. The population of the trading market exceeded 100,000.

When the trading market was first launched, there was a lack of skilled construction workers and technical teams, so they were sent from the headquarters base.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now that the city lord is so confident, maybe these two thousand people can be found from the Oil City.

"Maybe they transferred people from the trading market in Oil City." Ding Jiu guessed.

Qian Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Yes, I heard that there are quite a lot of people over there at the trading market. It would be great if we could transfer Mr. Qigong, Mr. Liu and the others back."

Ding Jiu shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not very realistic. The trading market is expected to have to build boilers in the future, and they are also planning to build a buffer city wall. The workers are gone and no one is at the helm!"

"All right."

.....

After Li Yu left the buffer city, he found his second uncle who had returned early and told him what he had talked with Ding Jiu.

"Recruiting people from the trading market?" Upon hearing this, the second uncle said with some worry:

"But the trading market has a complicated staff, so there may be hidden dangers if they are sent to the headquarters base..."

"so."

Li Yu knocked on the table and said:

"So, I plan to dispatch those people who have been involved in the trading market for more than half a year. These people cannot be from the northwest."

"or....."

Li Yu thought for a moment and then continued: "We can also bring over the former northern affiliated team that has moved to the trading market."

After the destruction of the Northern Territory, in order to support the construction of the Oil City Trading Market, all the affiliated forces of the Northern Territory were invited to move south and enter the Trading Market for construction.

Nearly ten teams, such as Garbage Gang, Tattoo Gang, Chengde Summer Resort, Daybreak Gang, Iron Blood Gang, Jimingtang, etc., have all moved into the trading market.

The number of people reached two to three thousand.

"But, they have stayed at the trading market for so long, some of them may not want to leave." The second uncle said worriedly.

Li Yu touched his chin,

"The construction points provided here are more than those at the Oil City Trading Market, and there are various hidden benefits. They should come, and besides... they have no choice!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up with thinking in his eyes.

"I plan to go to the trading market."

When the second uncle heard that Li Yu said he was going to the trading market, he rarely stopped him.

In recent months, there has been a lot of news coming from the trading market.

rapid changes,

It might as well go over and have a look.
