“Wow, so beautiful…”

Entering the old city and looking at the scenery in front of me, Ilia couldn't help but feel emotion.

In front of her, the old city was no longer the dilapidated appearance. The steel iron bridge that originally connected the old city turned into a spacious and clean double-sided stone bridge. There was even a thick gate marked with starlight technology patterns at the end of the stone bridge. It was fully armed and soldiers in black uniforms stood outside the gate to maintain order.

“Many of them are residents of the old city.”

Torisha also immediately introduced to Fang Zheng.

"Previously, there were two bad gangs in the old city, called the Holy Book Club and the Sword Snake Gang, which were also the biggest obstacle for us to develop the old city. But fortunately, Lord Li Xuelu solved their problems. Finally, these bad teenagers were recruited into the security forces. They were not bad by nature, but because they were doing nothing, they went on a wrong path. Lord Li Xuelu also had strict training and requirements for them. Now these people are no longer the original bad guys."

"Well, it looks pretty."

Looking at the "security personnel" standing in the guard booth without moving and a serious expression, Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. If he didn't know their past, just from the spirit of these people at present, it would be obvious that they were soldiers who had received strict training. But it was normal. After all, Li Xuelu led a knight in her world, and it would be easy to deal with these bad elements and could easily get it.

Soon, Fang Zheng and his group arrived at the gate. Then the soldiers led by the leader stepped forward, looked at Torisha's ID, then saluted her, and then the door opened, and everyone came to the interior of the old city.

The first thing that catches your eye is a park under the shade of green. Starting from this circular park, two staggered roads run through the entire old city in a circular shape. On both sides of the street, there are simple and modern apartment buildings. In the center of the old city, there are shop streets, schools and affiliated community hospitals.

“Most of the apartment buildings on both sides live in Starlight Technology’s employees and their families.”

Speaking of this, Torisha seemed quite excited. After all, it was like a miniature kingdom. Although the sparrow was small and had all the internal organs, as one of the builders of this "micro kingdom", she certainly hoped that this place could become better.

"Originally, Mr. Li Xuelu and I were considering specifically for resettlement of residents and Xingguang Technology employees in the old city, but after the renovation of the old city was completed, more and more people wanted to move in. We also received a lot of applications, including residents and merchants from West Street. So after discussing with the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Li Xuelu decided to use some apartment buildings for rent. In addition, we also have a transportation shuttle bus connected to the city center, one every hour, responsible for picking up and dropping off staff from the old city to Xingguang Tower. Of course, the citizens of Crossbear are also using it."

"very good."

Hearing Tolisha's report, Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Li Xuelu had perfectly implemented her plan and requirements.

It is impossible for Fang Zheng to master Close Bell, but considering his plan, it must be recognized by the citizens of Close Bell.

That's why Founder would spare no effort to do these things. Small things like transportation buses are naturally costing money. After all, it's public transportation, so it's not easy to get back the money. But for Founder, if Starlight Technology can be linked to the citizens of Crossbell through such small things, so that they can no longer be separated from Starlight Technology, then it would be better.

Not only that, Fang Zheng did not give up the place other than the city of Closbeer. For example, he also asked Lixuelu to sign a commercial agreement on agricultural processing and tourism development with Almorica Village on behalf of Starlight Technology, and also spent a lot of money on the development of the mining town of Mainz.

These are things that the city of Closebell itself does not spend money on, but for Founder, if this little money can buy the people's hearts and support for these two places, it would be cheaper.

"There is another question, Mr. Founder, about our financial payment system... we have received a lot of foreign applications at present."

"Oh? Are there many?"

"Yes, according to your idea, we have opened a financial network with the Kingdom of Liber and a ‘Star Coin’ system specially used in Starlight Technology. As long as you exchange your Mira for Starlight Coins, you can buy all the goods of our Starlight Technology in equivalent. However, since many things are only sold in the old city, and foreign tourists and residents of Crossbel outside the old city do not have this permission, so many things cannot be purchased. Therefore, many people have complained to the city council about this..."

"hehe……………"

Hearing Tolisha’s report, Fang Zheng raised his lips slightly and showed a smug smile.

"What do you say on the city council?"

"The City Council expressed its hope that we can relax the exchange system of star coins, while IBC volunteered to be an intermediary."

“No need for this.”

Fang Zheng waved his hand.

"We do it ourselves. If you go and discuss it with Li Xuelu, you will say that those who hold legal identity certificates can be allowed to open an account on our Starlight Technology financial platform. They can store their Mira to Starlight Technology and exchange them for equivalent Starlight coins. At the same time, they must let them know that no matter where they are, as long as they hold the account password and identity certificate, they can withdraw their Mira and Starlight coins on the Starlight Technology platform in any country and region."

Founder certainly understands why IBC is so impatient. Since his "optical krypton machine" was sold to neighboring countries, almost all countries have begun to form their own brand new financial networks. After all, this is a major event that concerns the national financial security. No matter how powerful IBC is, it is impossible to change the decision of the President of the Republic or the Emperor of the Empire. Therefore, according to the information obtained by Founder, over the past period of time, IBC's business at the financial level of various countries has been greatly reduced. Now they can only barely maintain their basic balance in Closebell.

Well... But after Founder's Starlight Technology took action, it would be difficult for them to maintain the basic market.

This is also the reason Founder designed the "Star Coin" system. He remembered that when he was young, the country was in short supply. At that time, many good things could only be purchased with foreign exchange rolls or US dollars. At that time, those foreign stores sold the most advanced, most luxurious, and best-quality goods, such as refrigerators, washing machines, TVs, etc., were completely rare and precious goods at that time. Only foreigners or Chinese people with foreign exchange rolls were allowed to buy. Even if you own 100 million yuan, you had to sell the goods to you.

The same is true now. He used this star coin exchange system to absorb Mira from the citizens of Closbeer and exchanged it for internal currency specifically to purchase internal goods from Starlight Technology. This is actually exactly the same as when he was doing foreign stores.

However, those foreign-run stores sold high-end goods, which ordinary people could not afford. However, there were all high-end and low-end products on Founder, and all the products produced by Starlight Technology were higher quality and cheaper than those on the outside. In this case, even ordinary people would hope to get benefits through this financial trading platform.

Not only that, even when going to schools in old urban areas and seeking medical treatment in affiliated hospitals, you need to exchange star coins for payment. From a certain perspective, this is like forcing everyone to use Alipay to purchase in one urban area and not admitting payment in other physical currency.

Of course, if it was in other places, Fang Zheng couldn't do it, but Closebell was different. It was just a colony!

What's more, when Founder signed an agreement with the city council, the other party used the entire old city as "commercial land". It was estimated that the city council was just thinking about how to get rid of such a broken place as soon as possible. He never expected that Starlight Technology would spend a lot of money to rebuild the entire old city.

So now they can't do anything.

It's like you go shopping in a store, buy a membership card, and recharge it and use points to buy it with discounts. Can you say this is illegal?

Of course this is not illegal.

Not to mention that the Close Bell City Council has not enforced the law power over citizens of other countries. This means that not to mention that Fang Zheng did not commit crimes in Close Bell, he even opened a water park here to HAPPY together, and the Close Bell City Council cannot arrest anyone.

So areas without political sovereignty are so frustrated, no different from those in the concession.

With the support of Starlight Technology, the old city now seems to have become a cancerous tissue, crazily absorbing the energy of Crossbell, and then gradually grows until it finally retaliates.........

Uh, how do you say it is like a villain?

I am obviously a kind magic girl and the god of game.

Fang Zheng read his thoughts and actions in his mind, and finally nodded.

Well, it's reasonable, nothing wrong.

"Just stop here."

Fang Zheng glanced at the street and then ordered. When he heard his order, the driver immediately parked the car on the side of the road.

"Mr. Fangzheng?"

"I'll take Ilia around, you go back to the company first."

Fang Zheng opened the car door, took Ilia out of the car, and made a gesture to Torisha.

"Let's enjoy the scenery here and contact me if you have something to do."

"Okay, Lord Founder."

Hearing this, Torisha didn't say anything more, just nodded and left the car. Seeing the dark vehicle leaving, Fang Zheng turned his head and looked at Ilia who was standing beside him in confusion, and smiled slightly.

"Okay, Ilia, let's have a date."

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Ilia was stunned for a moment, then suddenly showed a happy smile.
Chapter completed!
