Chapter 283: "· Another year"

In the past, we always looked up at the sky, angrily slanting the muddy water of material; now we look down at the earth, and believe in heaven under the seal of the earth.
Umberto Eco (the world's most well-known authority on symbolic linguistics)
With the amount of treasury funds currently held in Rome City, it is still very easy to pay for the maintenance cost of the army of less than eight thousand gold in this area; since Bai Feng returned to Rome City, his only use of treasury funds was to recruit two teams of urban militia.
The bumper harvests of the five Tuntian areas filled the granaries in the city of Rome; even the five small towns that were just on track no longer need the food support of the city of Rome. The newly established town of Aisini is not yet self-sufficient.
The small town of Aisini that feeds hundreds of thousands of people and the more than 160,000 troops of the Roman city are not a problem for the Roman city at this time; in the future, the food reserves of the Roman city will increase more and more, able to feed the population And the army will be more and more.
More importantly, the towns directly under the Roman city have formed a self-sufficient development model; as long as the Roman city's army can maintain the stability of the Roman city's sphere of influence, the prosperity of the entire Roman city force is only a matter of time.
While the work of the legionary was still busy, December passed quietly in Bai Feng's busyness; Bai Feng woke up and stretched a lazy smile with a smile, and then greeted the new 17-year-old.

Compared with last month, the revenue of the city of Rome has increased significantly in terms of trade income; this is because with the large income of food in the small towns of Rome, the residents of those towns can use the excess food Get the city of Rome in exchange for other supplies.
The free trade policy and the existence of businessmen have greatly promoted the trade between these small towns and the city of Rome, and increased the trade income of the city of Rome; from the financial report last month, trade income has occupied Half of the total income of the city of Rome.
After the business road between Rome and the town of Essini and the Kingdom of Essini is opened in the future, the revenue of the city of Rome will definitely be further improved; thinking of this, Bai Feng feels that a small and easy to build near the town of Essini The port is imperative.
The turbulent Cangluo River has always been a natural barrier difficult for the barbarian tribes on both sides of the east and west. The Roman city used to rely on this natural barrier to resist the attack of Queen Budeka; however, the Roman city that has unified the east and west sides now needs to cross. barrier.
If the barrier of the Cang Luo River cannot be crossed, then the Roman city on the east bank cannot establish a stable connection with the town of Aisini on the west bank and the kingdom of Aisini; whether for economic development or military reasons Political considerations, this port must be built!
Only by building this important port that connects the east and west sides of the Cangluo River, the city of Rome can expand the scale of trade with the town of Essini and the Kingdom of Essini, and further increase the trade income of the city of Rome; The control of the Kingdom of Nepal can also be strengthened.
The existence of many benefits made Bai Feng determined to build this port as soon as possible; Bai Feng was originally prepared to transport a large amount of food to the small town of Aisini for free, and now it seems that it can be completely changed into a form of labor relief.
The food-rich city of Rome can use food as compensation and hire young and strong people in the town of Essini to build the port of Essini; not only can a large number of laborers be found to build the port of Essini, but also the town of Essini can be bright and upright Of food for the city of Rome.
Anyway, after all, the food given by others is not as good as the food earned with their own hands; especially for the stubborn barbarians, if they are really in the situation of life and death, how could they accept the city of Rome What about free food?
About the construction of the port of Aisini and the allocation of food to support the town of Aisini, this was given by Bai Feng; after considering how to increase the total income of the city of Rome, Bai Feng had to think about the population of the city of Rome.

The constant population growth rate can always play a different role under different population bases; the city of Rome, with a population of nearly 40,000, can add more than 1,000 people every month at this growth rate, and has been in Stable rising stage.
In addition, the role of the Temple of Apollo should not be underestimated. The fixed increase in the number of 1,000 people per month also brought a considerable population to the city of Rome; of course, in Bai Feng’s heart, the greater role of the Temple of Apollo is still Sacrifice gods.
Facts have proved that the power of faith obtained by sacrifice of gods is the most valuable thing to promote the development of the city of Rome; the growth of population, the shortening of the construction period, the calling of special arms, the power of faith has long been the development of the city of Rome The most precious treasure!
When the Roman army of Baifeng entered the Kingdom of Aisini, a total of 16 new gods were seized; the long-standing and powerful Kingdom of Aisini was not comparable to ordinary barbarian tribes, even the quality and quantity of the idols They are far more than ordinary barbarian tribes.
I got these sixteen precious idols, together with the sixteen idols still stored in Bai Feng, there are now more than thirty-two idols that can be used for self-development in the city of Rome; however, Bai Feng, who understands the value of the gods But don't plan to use all the artifacts in your hands.
No one knows what kind of crisis will be encountered during the development of the city of Rome, and no one knows how much potential value of the power of faith has not been unearthed; even the existence of Apollo is what it wants, really Are these only the immediate effects?
