Of course, Ye Feng also understood that so things should not be done haphazardly; he needed a stable source of the Power of Faith rather than just reaping a wave and moving on.
Therefore, Yang City was his base. As long as he managed this place well, there would surely be no shortage of the Power of Faith.
Especially since he had learned that Yang City was going to expand again—from a population of 10 million to a major city of 20 million people.
This matter was personally communicated to the Mutated Parrot by Yang City’s Mayor Liu Zaoxin that morning.
He believed that this decision was likely a result of the astonishing combat power he had displayed during the Forbidden Area Battle.
It didn’t surprise Ye Feng that the national leaders would make such a decision after he gave it so thought.
Because it was a simple arithtic problem.
As the Spiritual Energy Resurgence intensified, with Mutated Beings becoming increasingly terrifying, other cities would need hundreds of thousands of troops to ensure absolute safety, along with a much larger logistics support operation.
But here in Yang City, all that was needed was to maintain a good relationship with the Dragon Hall to ensure absolute security.
The costs of the two were fundantally incomparable.
It was no wonder then that the nation would once again increase its support for Yang City.
And for Ye Feng, this scene was sothing he was happy to see.
The larger the population of Yang City, the easier it would be for him to reap the Power of Faith.
Of course, if Yang City’s population was to increase from 10 million to 20 million, the required urban area had to double as well, which ant that the previously established expansion plans had to be scrapped.
However, this was not sothing he needed to worry about.
Naturally, this matter was related to him since any change in the construction plans would definitely need to be discussed with the Dragon Hall.
Without the protection of the Animal Army from the Dragon Hall, the construction of Yang City would be next to impossible.
"Based on the ti, they should be arriving soon!" Ye Feng murmured to himself.
Mayor Liu Zaoxin had ntioned that morning that by the end of the day, the municipal departnt would co up with a new plan.
And now, as the night was drawing close to dawn, Ye Feng believed that even if the plan wasn’t ready yet, it should be soon.
As for whether the other party would knock off work at this late hour, after the Spiritual Energy Resurgence, that simply wasn’t an issue.
While Ye Feng was considering these matters, he suddenly noticed sothing and turned his gaze toward the road in the distance.
A convoy was approaching at high speed.
Ye Feng didn’t make them wait and imdiately had the Mutated Parrot fly out to et them.
"Parrot ssenger, I’m truly sorry for disturbing you at such a late hour,"
"I thought the expansion plans would be completed quickly, but once we started the actual planning, we realized there were many issues, so it was delayed by a few hours," Liu Zaoxin quickly apologized upon seeing the Mutated Parrot.
"It’s fine!" Ye Feng smiled, "But the way you put it has piqued my curiosity. Let’s see what kind of expansion plan you’ve co up with."
The accompanying staff had already set up incandescent lights on both sides of the road, and the area was instantly illuminated.
Liu Zaoxin glanced over and imdiately summoned the planning departnt staff to co over, then spread out a design map in front of the Mutated Parrot.
"This is our latest urban planning map. Since expanding to the east, south, and west is problematic for various reasons, we plan to continue expanding the city northward."
Liu Zaoxin pointed at the map and said, "Next, we intend to break through the entire Donglin Mountain Range, connecting to the plains on the northern side of the mountains."
"The terrain here is exceptionally suitable; the land is nearly ready for construction without much leveling, and there’s enough space to even build another Yang City."
"Eventually, Yang City will beco a dual-city, with northern and southern sections," he explained.
Listening to his explanation, Ye Feng had to admit that the planning was indeed very good and that their ambition was quite substantial.
The other side was not just expanding a district, but the scope of an entire city.
If high-rise residential buildings were all constructed here, accommodating an additional 10 million people would be a breeze, let alone another 20 or 30 million.
Clearly, Liu Zaoxin and his team had also guessed the intentions of the national leadership and had already started making arrangents early on.
If the expansion continued, Yang City wouldn’t just be a first-tier city but could easily enter the ranks of the super first-tier cities.
But after pondering for a mont, Ye Feng slowly shook his head, "This plan won’t work!"
"This..." Liu Zaoxin, originally full of confidence, saw a slight change in his expression upon hearing Ye Feng’s words.
He hurriedly said, "If there’s a problem, we can have it corrected imdiately."
The rapid developnt of Yang City was entirely based on the protection of Dragon Hall, so the opinion from the Dragon King was absolutely crucial— even having veto power would not be an exaggeration.
Ye Feng stretched out his wings, pointed at the position of the Donglin Mountain Range on the design blueprint, and said, "If we construct according to this plan, the entire Donglin Mountain Range would be cut off by Yang City, which is sothing we cannot accept."
Ye Feng now considered the entire mountain range as his territory, and cutting through it like this would make managent very troubleso.
Birds might simply fly over, but land animals would have to detour a long way to get across, which was a significant inconvenience for his ecological managent.
Realizing it was such a problem, Liu Zaoxin breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn’t a major directional issue, it was fine.
He said quickly, "No problem, please hold on. I’ll discuss with the team and make the changes imdiately."
Ye Feng nodded, then had the Mutated Parrot stand aside and closed his eyes, while he switched back his Avatar Status to his true body, continuing to optimize the construction of his spiritual power.
About half an hour later, upon hearing Liu Zaoxin’s call, he repossessed the Mutated Parrot and opened his eyes.
"Parrot ssenger, this is our revised plan. Could you please check if there is anything else that needs to be modified?" Liu Zaoxin asked very politely.
Ye Feng looked at the newly printed design, noting that the city wall already built would remain as is. Next, they would construct three elevated bridges within the city, directly connecting to the future "North City".
Moreover, he could tell that there was also so reserved space on both sides, so if the three elevated bridges were not enough in the future, they could construct a fourth, a fifth, or even more.
"Overall, there aren’t any problems. However, it would be best if you could design the bridges a bit higher, at least 20 ters above ground. As you know, with the resurgence of Spiritual Energy, the mbers of Dragon Hall are going to grow increasingly large," Ye Feng said.
"That was an oversight on my part, but these are minor issues that can be fixed easily," Liu Zaoxin imdiately responded.
"With that, I have no objections. Of course, with these changes, we at Dragon Hall will have a lot more work to do, so we need to renegotiate the price," Ye Feng stated.
Hearing Ye Feng say this, a smile actually appeared on Liu Zaoxin’s face; this ant that the matter was essentially settled.
As for the price, neither party cared too much, and the negotiation went smoothly. In the end, the total cost of hiring increased to 3 billion.
Considering the significantly extended duration, such a price was reasonable.
Once the plan was confird, Liu Zaoxin left promptly, and the construction crew began working overnight.
In fact, it wasn’t just their team working so hard; every day, Yang City was changing at an incredibly frightening pace.
This change was not just in terms of expansion but included transformations within various industries across the city.
Yang City had beco one of the universally recognized safest major cities.
Under such circumstances, a large amount of capital naturally flowed in.
Many small factories were acquired and rged; so large enterprises directly purchased land to construct new buildings.
Especially in the "New Urban Area" expanding towards the Donglin Mountain Range, the municipal engineering team had only just erected the city walls.
More than half of the areas within the New Urban Area had already been sold.
And out of these sold areas, more than 90 percent would be used to build various factories.
One could imagine that as the nation arranged for population relocation and crowds surged into these factories, Yang City’s industrial system would climb to the next level.
