After entering October of the 11th year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao felt a little more relaxed. At the same time, he learned that Fuzhi had upgraded the Fulu Kingdom to the Fulu Empire in the lord communication channel.
Qu Mao actually thought for a long time, and wanted to upgrade Yi Wang's territory to Yi Emperor's territory.
Su Qiaoer reported to Qu Mao the current total population of the 15 islands in the holy land of King Yi's territory, as well as the upper limit of the total number of residents that can accommodate them, which also gave Qu Mao great confidence, so Qu Mao believes that it has now reached the point where King Yi's territory has been upgraded to The best time for Emperor Yi's territory.
Just after entering October, Qu Mao came out of the busy development affairs of King Yi's territory in various fields, so he took the initiative to ask Kong Ming and Xuande to start communicating about upgrading to Emperor Yi's territory.
Su Yan is still stationed in the new palace of the Tassel Empire in Luanshan Province for a long time. At the beginning, Su Yan wanted to move the new imperial city to Luanshan Province. Communicate remotely with Qu Mao through the magic communication crystal.
So even if Su Yan didn't return to the Holy Land, Qu Mao could still fully communicate with Su Yan about upgrading Yidi's territory through the magic communication crystal.
Su Yan would not interfere with Qu Mao's decision-making in many cases, so when she confirmed that the resources and gold coins in King Yi's territory were sufficient, she did not stop Qu Mao's thoughts.
As the Chief Internal Affairs Officer of King Yi's Territory, Su Yan has been by Qu Mao's side since there were only 10 people in King Yi's Territory. As Qu Mao's Chief Internal Affairs Officer, it seems that she has never opposed Qu Mao's opinions. It may be that Qu Mao checked and made up for some problems.
After communicating with Su Yan, Qu Mao called Kong Ming and Xuande back to the lord's hut, ready to formally discuss the matter of upgrading King Yi's territory to Emperor Yi's territory.
Kongming waved his goose feather fan and walked into the living room on the first floor of the lord's hut with Xuande. When he saw Qu Mao, he said straight to the point: "My lord, there are still a large number of reinforced concrete buildings under construction in our holy land, and there is no resettlement for any residents." Bottleneck, why did you think of upgrading your territory to Emperor Yi's territory at this point in time?
The subordinates feel that it is not necessary for the time being. After the upgrade, it will actually lead to the repair of the teleportation array, and the power on the opposite side of the teleportation array will be stronger. "
When Xuande heard what Kong Ming said, he also said with a smile: "My lord, my subordinates and Master Kong Ming have basically the same views. We don't need to upgrade our territory for the sake of some false names that have no practical benefits. On the one hand, it will dissipate our precious The gold coins and resources, on the other hand, there are also factors that attract the wind.”
Qu Mao looked at Kongming in astonishment, then looked at Xuande, smiled helplessly, and said, "Kongming, Xuande, what I saw was the benefits of upgrading to Emperor Yi's territory, but I didn't expect the two of you to see it." It's the downside of upgrading to Emperor Yi's territory, we can't continue talking."
Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan, walked to a chair next to Qu Mao, sat on the chair directly, beckoned to the maid in the lord's cabin to bring tea for himself and Xuande, and said, "My lord, you can also take over the land Tell us about the benefits of upgrading to Emperor Yi's territory, what if we are persuaded by you?
Aren't we discussing now, let's verify each other's opinions and see what should happen?
Xuande came over, found a chair and sat opposite Qu Mao, and looked at Qu Mao eagerly.
Qu Mao said: "Upgrading to the territory of Emperor Yi, first of all, the area of the holy land will increase. Even though we have many reinforced concrete buildings under construction, after the territory is upgraded, new territories can be stretched to build more reinforced concrete buildings.
Secondly, upgrading to the territory of Emperor Yi can improve our ranking on the ranking list of the overall strength of the Chosen players. The enemies we will face in the future are more of the lord forces of the Chosen players. Raising the ranking can enhance the ranking of other Chosen players. The deterrence of the lord's power..."
Kong Ming interrupted Qu Mao with a feather fan, and said, "My lord, are you sure you can only increase the deterrence, and not arouse the vigilance of other theologians, players, and lords?"
Xuande didn't speak, but took a cautious sip from the teacup, and then watched Qu Mao's reaction.
Qu Mao's originally prepared remarks were completely blocked by Kong Ming's words. After thinking about it again and again, Qu Mao sighed and said: "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't debate this issue with you. All debates are just eloquent. Eloquence is just to cover up your ignorance.
Leaving aside the matter of upgrading Yidi's territory, I estimate that by the second half of the twelfth year of Tianxuan, our Yiwang territory will definitely upgrade our territory to Yidi's territory. Now everyone is unwilling to upgrade, so let's not upgrade now . "
Kong Ming said with some embarrassment: "My lord, please forgive me, the subordinates are not opposing for the sake of opposing, but feel that the development of our King Yi's territory is going well, and everyone is performing their duties, and the military operations for external expansion are also increasing. Stable, there is no need to make some changes at this stage.
Subordinates believe that the longer the current state lasts, the more beneficial it will be for the development of our Yiwang territory, so they object to your upgrading to Yidi's territory now, but they have no intention of debating with you. "
Seeing that the situation seemed to be getting worse, Xuande hurriedly said, "Hey! My lord, Master Kong Ming is also focused on the future of our King Yi's territory, including our subordinates, we didn't mean to argue with you, my lord." .
If you feel that it is really necessary to upgrade the territory to Emperor Yi's territory now, and your subordinates think that you can directly decide to upgrade, sir, we have met all the conditions.
Since you still want to discuss it with your subordinates, your subordinates boldly guess that you haven’t fully thought it through yet. In this case, our objection is the result you expect to see, sir? "
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and said, "My lord, instead of upgrading King Yi's territory now, it is better to repair the railways on the islands of the Holy Land. You know, as the area of the Holy Land increases, the length of the railways will also increase.
We have built the railway, and by upgrading the territory of the holy land, we can save a lot of steel resources. "
Qu Mao waved his hand and said: "Since you disagree, then the matter of upgrading to Emperor Yi's territory will not be discussed.
Of course, since both of you are back, I don’t want you two to make a trip in vain. Let’s discuss the construction of the railway. "
