Chapter 149: Shocking Publicity
In her study, Jasmine kept writing.
These were so of the things she had to look out for when she arrived in Sarco City, and she was planning for them.
After Jasmine put down her pen, she stretched.
Looking up at the clock on the wall, half an hour had quietly slipped past, but Jasmine was still proud of the progress she had made.
It was definitely fast to have finished the plans in half an hour. The king had indeed arranged for Mike to have a reliable right-hand man.
She looked at the plans on the table with satisfaction.
Within a month, the population of Sarco City should reach a maximum of 20%, so that Sarco City could form its own basic business chain.
Even if it had so shortcomings, it could still go to Victory City to trade.
For a city that had just suffered a major blow, Victory City would be very willing to take part in this cooperation.
It could be said that Sarco City would develop in a good direction, even if would not be fast-paced.
However, no manager would be able to do a better job than Jasmine.
After coming to this conclusion, Jasmine closed the plan in her hand.
“It’s been half an hour. The publicity in the City of Light should have been completed. Why hasn’t anyone co to report the results?”
Jasmine looked at the door in confusion. It was indeed very quiet.
She could not help but stand up and walk out of the small study. She planned to go to the publicity office in the City of Light to take a look. Jasmine was a woman of action. She would not sit here and wait for the results.
Jasmine left the palace with steady steps.
However, before she had the ti to walk to the fountain square in the center of the City of Light, she was shocked by the scene. Although she was still far away, she saw it clearly.
At this ti, the fountain square of the City of Light was already packed with people.
Jasmine was shocked.
“What happened there? Did soone obstruct the publicity of Sarco City attracting residents?”
With a hint of anger, Jasmine quickened her pace.
This was the king’s agreent. How dare soone obstruct her?
Jasmine felt that she had to go and help with the publicity work. Otherwise, she would feel as if she was not doing enough.
However, when she walked to the publicity area of the fountain square, she was completely stunned on the spot.
She saw that there was not a single person dressed as a soldier here. They were all commoners. That was right, all of them.
All of them squeezed forward with excited smiles on their faces, as if afraid to miss out on sothing if they were too late.
Moreover, in the center of the crowd was the assistant who was sent by Jasmine to carry out the publicity work.
This assistant did not have much work experience, so how could he have expected such a scene?
He was already flustered!
Jasmine frowned and tried her best to squeeze in through the crowd.
When she arrived in front of her assistant, the clothes on Jasmine’s back were already soaked in sweat. These people were too crazy!
“What’s going on? Didn’t I ask you to do the publicity? Why did it turn into this situation?!”
Jasmine questioned loudly.
However, when the assistant saw Jasmine, not only was he not nervous at all, but he seed to have seen his savior.
He imdiately pressed Jasmine against the seat beside him and said,
“Thank god, you’re finally here.
“To be honest, I don’t know what to do anymore. There are actually so many people here who want to register!”
“What did you say?!” Jasmine was slightly stunned. The surrounding commoners were a little noisy, making her wonder if she had heard wrongly.
“I said! These people! They are all here to register!!!” the assistant shouted loudly.
A farr who was closest to the two people patted the small table in front of him in dissatisfaction.
“How long do you want to wait? I have already filled out the form!”!
“You don’t know how difficult it is for to fill out a form. Can you hurry up and complete the relocation procedures for ?!”
The assistant looked at the tall and strong farr in front of him and could not help but shrink his neck. He took the form from the farr and glanced at it. He pointed at the form helplessly and said,
“Sir, the occupation for you should be a farr, right? You filled in crops…”
“What’s the difference? Who cares about this? Hurry up and help complete the procedures!” the farr stared at the assistant with his eyes wide open.
The assistant helplessly turned his head to look at Jasmine. His gaze was very clear, as if saying ‘Do you now know why things are as such now?’
Jasmine covered her forehead in pain. She thought she must be dreaming.
‘Why are there so many people here?!’
It must be known that the City of Light’s population statistics last year showed that there were only about 120,000 people in the city.
The number of people standing in the fountain square alone was probably more than 20,000!
Moreover, there were many people standing on the streets outside the fountain square. They seed to be queuing up to go through the relocation procedures.
Faced with this scene, for the first ti in her life, Jasmine was at a loss.
Because the scarier thing was that Hero city and Victory City might also have this scene!
Originally, they thought that the city of Sarco City would be able to accommodate 20% of the population within a month.
However, looking at the current situation, not to ntion a month, half the capacity would probably be filled on the first day itself!
There might be more tomorrow!
Faced with this result, Jasmine did not know whether to be happy or have a headache.
She had never thought that a 1% tax could cause such a big reaction. After all, there was no precedent for Jasmine to use as a reference.
In fact, these residents thought very simply.
In other cities, they had to pay 20% tax.
However, in Sarco City, they only had to pay 1% tax.
In comparison, you essentially would not need to pay taxes in Sarco City!
Moreover, the city lord of Sarco City was the respected God Slayer.
With such a lord as their city lord, what else could they not be satisfied with?
Even if the taxes on Sarco were 20%, they would still choose Sarco City without hesitation!
The emotions of the surrounding civilians had beco more and more intense. They waited for a long ti, but they still could not complete the procedures.
The noises made by the civilians made it hard for Jasmine and her assistant to communicate.
“Go and call so guards to maintain order!”
“What did you say! I can’t hear you clearly!”
“I said, let’s call so guards!”
“I can’t hear you clearly!!!”
Jasmine once again covered her forehead in pain.
This job was simply too difficult!
She swore that she had to find the city lord to discuss the matter of raising her salary!
As for now, she could only temporarily leave her assistant and quickly find so helpers.
Otherwise, just the two of them would not be able to finish this amount of work even if they sat here until tomorrow!
Jasmine had a premonition in her heart.
Sarco City was about to beco the largest city of the human race!
