Arcane Lord

the next day.

Shado received the "Several Suggestions on the Civilization of Territorial Magic" from Jay, the territorial magic affairs officer, and was deeply touched after reading it carefully.

In "Suggestions", Jay shared the various situations he experienced on the first day of his official employment, from the busyness of his mother preparing breakfast for him in the morning, to the hardships and even dangers of the development team in the development department.

In this way, Jay put forward a number of practical suggestions on the civilianization of territorial magic. Among them, Xado believes that the application of magic stoves is relatively easy to achieve in the short term, while others, such as magic development, are not so easy to achieve.

Putting down Jay's report, Shado continued to read the work reports of the other three of the first four magic affairs officers in the territory.

Compared with Jay's detailed report, the other three reports are much simpler, mainly telling what they have seen and heard in the moral education class and their views on the moral education class.

Xia Duo has his own requirements and expectations for the magic affairs officers. Although the first four were only selected by the five-member committee, he believed that neither the five-member committee nor the four magic affairs officers would let them go. He was disappointed.

It's only the first day of work, so I can't really see much difference.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo sent a letter to the four of them, mostly encouraging. Among them, for Jay, he first affirmed Jay's suggestion of a magic stove, and based on this, he proposed a The concept and goal of "the modernization of residents' life".

There can be magic stoves, as well as other magic facilities in life. He encouraged Jay to participate more in life and experience life. Creativity comes from life and will definitely be applied to life.

After sending the letter to the Territory Government Affairs Office, Xia Duo went to the Tower of Time Supply Office again, checked the recent material consumption of the Tower of Time, and arranged for Cecily to reserve some materials for the Magic Affairs Officer to study the application. .

Cecily promised well in person, but when she turned around, she informed Niya of the matter.

At noon, when Shado and Niya were having lunch at the lord's villa in Linshui Village, he only learned of this from Niya.

Although Niya did not object to this, she also expressed her concerns:

"Is it too fast to implement magic for civilian use now? Whether it is the magic literacy of the people or the material consumption of the Tower of Time, I'm afraid it can't be supported!"

Niya's worry is not unreasonable. Xia Duo just went to the material department to see it this morning. At present, the magical material reserve of the Tower of Time is still growing at a small rate, but the total amount has never been raised.

As long as the Tower of Time undergoes a large-scale maintenance, it may all be used up, but the Tower of Time is now running at a high load.

Saville would never have imagined that Xia Duo could be so tossed to death, he would send so many people to Tali at once, and with the large number of apprentices he recruited before, he would grow into a full-fledged mage in batches.

The infrastructure maintenance pressure of the Tower of Time has also become more and more intense, and the fixed-cycle maintenance cost has become more and more high.

The floating city is certainly a dream of Xado, but in a sense, it is probably a choice that the Tower of Time has to make.

Even if it is not a floating city, it will be more comprehensive magic facilities such as mage towers.

And Niya's worries also made Xia Duo think of another layer, that is, the construction of the floating city. Although the main construction has been completed, the subsequent functional systems and internal equipment and facilities require a lot of magic materials.

It's just that the horn of the new era has sounded, and all development problems can only be solved through continuous development, including resource issues.

Trying to use throttling to achieve development is simply unrealistic.

Thinking of this Xia Duo felt a deep pressure, and his silence also brought a lot of pressure to Niya, she tentatively mentioned:

"How about we mine the mithril mine that we found in the Green Pearl Forest earlier?"

"no."

Xia Duo resolutely refused. Now only the mithril mine has been discovered in the Green Pearl Forest, and the mine is the last strategic reserve. The most difficult time has not yet come! How can you easily use this last and only hole card!

"We can only suspend the civilian magic transformation of the territory." Xia Duo sighed and made a difficult decision.

That is to say, the magic transformation plan for the civilian facilities in the territory has not yet been formed, otherwise he may not be able to make such a determination.

Although the civil magic transformation of the territory is suspended, the related research and related technical reserves cannot be stopped. On the contrary, they must be strongly supported.

For Shado's decision, Nia expressed her support, she said, "I will ask Cecily to reserve enough research materials for your Magical Affairs Officer."

"Ok."

Xia Duo nodded, this problem is not really a big problem, it's more of a chat between the two of them during meals, but with a high-consumption project as big as Floating City, the problem of resources is always a big problem that cannot be avoided.

Regarding the specific material consumption for the construction of the floating city, Xia Duo has not mentioned it to Niya yet. He estimates that as long as he talks about it, Niya will be blown away.

In fact, since the last visit to the main body of Floating City, Niya often asked him at night whether the follow-up construction needed the help of the Tower of Time, which was somewhat of a smell of high consumption. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

But how does this make him answer?

Do you want to say that filling in the entire Tower of Time will not be able to fill such a **** hole?

During this time, Xia Duo has been obsessed with the follow-up design of Floating City in addition to studying with Niya, which is somewhat escapist.

But now Cecily's "complaint" has made him realize that this problem cannot be avoided. If all subsequent designs are completed before thinking about this problem, it will be a little too late.

"Ugh-"

…

After lunch.

Xia Duo asked Niya to go back to the Tower of Time to do the test papers, while he himself came to the study on the second floor of the villa. Xia Duo did not use this study room often, but every time he came, he could feel a heavy sense of responsibility.

The most intuitive source of this sense of responsibility is the copies of territorial documents that are almost full on the bookshelf the size of one wall in the study.

But today, Xia Duo was not going to check the newly generated territorial documents, but sat directly behind the desk, took out the pen and paper, and started to write and draw.

At present, there are three main sources of income for the Tower of Time - the sales revenue of mass-produced magic items, the sales revenue of other magic items, and the consumption revenue of members.

However, after many reforms, the latter two incomes have actually been declining rapidly, which are almost negligible compared to the sales income of mass-produced magic items.

As for expenses, there are three main items-

The biggest one is the purchase of magic materials, which accounts for more than 90% of the total expenditure, and the second is the salary paid to the regular members after the transformation, and the proportion of this part is getting higher and higher with the growth of time.
