Chapter 15 Oasis City's population surpasses 10,000, illuminating the architectural blueprints!
Oasis City Government.
Inside a secluded office.
Li Zhou is manipulating sand grains while browsing information online.
During this period, news about agriculture in Oasis City has been everywhere on the internet.
Because the yield per acre has doubled.
Oasis City is widely regarded as a prime location for agriculture.
Li Zhou smiled slightly at this.
He has already unlocked the agriculture section in the [City Map], possessing three major abilities: [Agricultural Output Increase], [Agricultural Growth Acceleration], and [Livestock Growth Acceleration].
With the support of three major capabilities.
Agriculture in Oasis City will flourish and become the agricultural capital of Xia Kingdom!
As for the Oasis City Government's press conference some time ago, claiming that it had mastered desert temperature regulation technology, desert water resource non-evaporation technology, and sandstorm climate regulation technology, this is obviously fake news.
At present, the Xia Kingdom does not possess these technologies.
The main reason they said this was to give the public an explanation and cover up the truth about his existence as the ruler of the desert.
After all, the idea that humans could become the embodiment of the desert is so incredible that it's hard to believe.
To tell the truth.
Li Zhou actually enjoys his current life.
As the embodiment of the desert, he can control everything in the Tak Desert, possesses all sorts of incredible abilities, and has become an "immortal species".
As long as the Tak Desert exists, he can continue to live in this form.
In addition, Oasis City already has a 4G network.
He can access the internet anytime and learn about all kinds of information online.
of course……
It would be even better if I could become human again!
[Ding! Oasis City's registered population has reached 100 million. The host has been granted one opportunity to unlock a new character in the encyclopedia!]
Suddenly, an electronic voice echoed in Li Zhou's mind.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhou's eyes lit up.
He thought it would take a year and a half before he could get a chance to light up the city's map, but he didn't expect that the Oasis City's registered population would exceed one million, and the City Map system would give him a chance to light up the map.
It seems that as long as a city's development reaches a certain stage, it can receive corresponding rewards.
Li Zhou wasted no time and immediately used this opportunity to light up the encyclopedia.
In an instant.
In his mind, a virtual turntable appeared and began to spin.
The turntable features fonts for categories such as [Urban Industry], [Urban Technology], [Urban Transportation], [Urban Sports], [Urban Education], [Urban Healthcare], [Urban Culture and Entertainment], and [Urban Architecture].
The virtual turntable stopped spinning.
A series of electronic sounds came through.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have unlocked the city building blueprint!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received a city construction speed boost!] (Note: City-owned construction companies will have their construction speed doubled, based on the construction speed of the infrastructure powerhouse!)
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have achieved an improvement in city building quality!] (Note: City-owned construction companies will double their building quality, using the construction quality of the "infrastructure maniac" as a benchmark!)
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received an upgrade in city architectural design!] (Note: For city-owned construction companies, the architectural design capabilities are doubled, benchmarked against top-tier architectural firms in the industry!)
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained accelerated city building research and development!] (Note: City-owned construction enterprises, benchmarked against top industry building research and development giants, have doubled their building research and development capabilities!)
……
Hear these system prompts.
Li Zhou was overjoyed.
The desert oasis city is in its early stages of construction, with everything in need of rebuilding. What it lacks most is urban infrastructure and time.
Take Shenzhen as an example.
It took more than 30 years for Shenzhen to develop from a small fishing village into the international metropolis it is today.
Even with national funding and policy support, it would be extremely difficult for Oasis City to become a first-tier city in a short period of time.
no way.
Urban development takes time.
Roads, hospitals, schools, skyscrapers, houses, high-speed rail, subways, international airports—each of these takes time to build.
And now...
The [City Building Atlas] that the system has activated is practically tailor-made for Oasis City.
Well known.
In the field of construction, Xia Kingdom is known as the "infrastructure maniac".
The five giants of Xia Kingdom's infrastructure construction are incredibly fast at building bridges, railways, highways, subways, and tunnels, and the quality is flawless.
Li Zhou himself is a reincarnated person.
In his memory.
In the previous life in 2015, the Sanyuan Bridge in Yanjing required the replacement of a 1300-ton steel box girder.
A Harvard professor said that this project would take at least two or three years in the United States, but China completed it in just 43 hours. The road was closed at 11 p.m. on Friday and fully reopened to traffic by 6 p.m. on Sunday.
In its previous life in 2017, the 589-meter-long, four-lane Longwangmiao overpass in Nanchang City needed to be completely demolished.
Experts from the United States say that if this project were carried out in the United States, it would take 18 months.
Xia Guo deployed 200 excavators and demolished the entire four-lane overpass in just 8 hours, turning it into flat ground.
In 2018, the Longyan Railway Station in Fujian Province underwent an upgrade and renovation, moving from the old station to a new one. This required a change in the railway lines, a very large undertaking that would take four to five years to complete.
After Xia Guo completed the project, he mobilized 23 departments, 34 large pieces of equipment, hundreds of small pieces of equipment, and 1500 workers to enter the site. They worked in rows around the clock, and the new station resumed operation 9 hours later.
Take this lifetime as an example.
Even with China's rapid infrastructure development, the strategic project of diverting water from Tibet to Xinjiang will take a very long time to complete.
However, it has the ability to increase the speed of city construction.
The strategic project of diverting water from Tibet to Xinjiang can be completed at a faster pace, helping the oasis city to make great strides in its development.
In the field of infrastructure quality, China is also the best in the world.
The Qinghai-Zangjiang Railway, the Three Gorges Project, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge, the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, the high-speed railway network, the first bridge across the Beipanjiang River, the Shanghai Tower... These mega-projects cannot be described simply as having high-quality infrastructure; they have created one infrastructure miracle after another!
And now...
It has the capability to improve the quality of urban buildings.
The city's construction companies can build buildings of unparalleled quality, contributing to the city's development.
Oasis City itself is a desert city, so the requirements for buildings are higher than those in the outside world.
With this ability...
The buildings in Oasis City will become projects that last for a hundred years or even a thousand years!
Architectural design is also very important.
Architectural design is the soul of a building.
Take skyscrapers as an example.
Some skyscrapers can become landmark buildings and popular spots for taking photos in a city.
Some skyscrapers are square and lack any distinctive features, resembling lumps of iron.
This obviously involves the architectural design phase.
Good architectural design can enhance a building's beauty and make it memorable.
As for the ability to accelerate building research and development, it is equally important.
To do something well, you must first have the right tools.
In the construction field, there are many major national projects, such as tunnel boring machines.
The tunnel boring machine determines the speed of subway tunnel excavation, affecting the cost and timeline of the project.
In Japan, the average tunneling speed of tunnel boring machines is 3.6 meters per hour.
German tunnel boring machines have an average tunneling speed of 6 meters per minute and were previously hailed as the industry benchmark.
However, the Xia state later surpassed it.
The average tunneling speed of domestically produced tunnel boring machines can reach 5 to 10 meters.
Clearly, heavy equipment like tunnel boring machines are the cornerstone of the construction industry.
Now we have the capability to accelerate urban building research and development.
The city-owned construction enterprises of Oasis City can quickly develop heavy-duty national equipment such as tunnel boring machines, aerial building machines, aerial tower construction machines, and thousand-ton-class bridge erecting machines, supporting the development and building the foundation of a strong country!
It's no exaggeration to say that...
This time, his activation of the [City Architecture Atlas] will ensure that Oasis City's municipal construction companies have no shortcomings in any aspect, including construction speed, construction quality, architectural design, and architectural research and development, thereby enabling Oasis City's development speed to reach a new level!
