Chapter 25
Firstly, the Territorial Area has nearly doubled in size!
The arable land has similarly increased by more than double, but those fertile soils have already been moved to the Xia Kingdom by Lin Beifan.
Domestic Resources have increased by nearly 30 million taels, reaching over 80 million taels. This is the greatest gain from his recent campaign, rapidly enriching his nation.
Comprehensive national power has thus increased by nearly 200 points, an increase of close to 50%!
This means the population has decreased significantly, as many have fled for their lives.
However, Lin Beifan believes that with the current domestic stability, coupled with the countrys resources, it will definitely attract many people to return, and the population issue will soon be replenished.
The focus of our development moving forward will be primarily economic development, vigorously exploiting domestic resources, attracting citizens to return, optimizing the population structure, and enriching the people! At the same time, we must also enhance military strength by recruiting and expanding the army!
Lin Beifan has set the development course for the coming period.
Ding! As the players national power grows, your strength increases accordingly. As a reward, your cultivation level has been raised to the Innate Realm Astral Qi level!
A terrifying power began to swell within Lin Beifan.
Let Lin Beifans strength increase by geometric multiples!
When everything stabilized, Lin Beifans strength was incomparable to before!
Innate Realm Astral Qi level! Lin Beifan was extremely excited.
This is the second level of the Innate Realm, which bestows one with Astral Qi!
This Astral Qi is akin to a protective aura, capable of automatically defending its master with a very strong defense that only divine weapons can penetrate!
To break through the Astral Qi, one must either be a strong practitioner at the Astral Qi level or possess a divine weapon to breach the defense.
Lin Beifan smiled slightly, What good news? Speak!
This Heshen glanced at Yaoyao, showing some reluctance.
Lin Beifan laughed, Yaoyao is not an outsider. Just say it!
Yaoyao listened with great joy; her gaze toward Lin Beifan softened, and she couldnt help but show a smile.
Yes, Your Majesty!
Heshen bowed respectfully, excitedly saying, After your humble servant returned to assess the extent of the damage caused by the earthquake, I dispatched people to inspect along the earthquake fissures. Can you guess what your humble servant has discovered?
What have you discovered? Lin Beifan asked with a smile.
Heshen spread his arms wide, speaking with great excitement, Your humble servant has discovered a vast amount of coal, copper, and even silver mines among these fissures! There are also some unidentified minerals waiting for confirmation!
These mineral resources are usually buried underground, but they have all been exposed after the earthquake! Your Majesty, do you know what this means? It means that the heavens bless the Xia Kingdom, the heavens bless Your Majesty!
Heshen spoke loudly, delivering a stream of flattering praise as if it were as easy as a rainbow.
Lin Beifan was overjoyed by the flattery: Minister He, are your words true? Have you really discovered a large amount of minerals?
How dare I deceive Your Majesty? Your humble servant would stake his own head on it! Heshen pointed to his head, confidently saying, If Your Majesty does not believe me, you may personally go and see for yourself!
Lin Beifan laughed heartily, Very well! Let us go and see for ourselves! If it is as you say, you will have made a great contribution!
Your Majesty, your humble servant shall lead the way for you!
