You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

However, after a brief moment of offering her opinions, she began to reconsider the main point:

"Next round, I plan to add bonuses to city building. What do you think?"

"As ordered."

"It's not a question of 'Yes, sir.' What's your opinion?"

“I agree, because according to the current trend, both the capital and other branch cities need to be expanded. In addition, it is also necessary to build a number of new cities to protect the rule of the northern part of the Great Plains.”

Feng Tianyin immediately switched to professional mode.

They even thoughtfully prepared a simple and easy-to-understand report for Xia He, explaining that the new city plan had actually been underway for three years. The temple, whose financial resources had greatly increased after resolving tax collection issues in various regions, immediately began this investment.

You only earn when you spend.

Official institutions are not profitable; they need to be invested to stimulate the economy, and she strictly adhered to this principle.

However, with limited productivity, building a city is not a small task that can be accomplished overnight.

Xia He immediately understood. Even from a first-person perspective, it didn't prevent him from accessing information. He could see that there were urban projects under construction all over Daqian, and each one was equivalent to a control anchor point.

In a sense, it strengthened the authority of the high priest.

Only by firmly controlling and carefully digesting the conquered territories can war be deployed:

Southern Expedition.

The fertile southern plains are a sure thing; it's just a matter of time. We need to make preparations in advance and work hard day after day for decades.

The current workforce of 200 million is not enough, but it will be sufficient in the future.

"I'll start operating now."

Upon hearing this, Feng Tianyin was about to bow when she realized that the other person was standing on her shoulder, so she immediately stood up straight.

She could feel the immense power of that authority growing clearer, even the High Priest was shaken by it, and the rest of the people bowed deeply, even vaguely sensing the joy of the Heavenly Way, celebrating with the heavens, and all things responding.

The previous long-term national policy was expansionism, which has now fulfilled its historical mission.

It's perfect.

It empowered the Great Qian Dynasty to complete the initial expansion of the Southern Blessed Plains, bringing a large number of city-states under its rule and quickly gaining control, leaving no opportunity for southern countries to interfere.

Without the support of this long-term national policy, there would be many more variables, and the consequences would be unpredictable.

It won't be needed in the next round.

As a veteran player, Xia He could tell at a glance that the Great Qian Dynasty had reached its expansion limit and there was no need to continue; it needed to rest.

It's not advisable to become obese overnight; one must proceed gradually.

So she set her sights on another option, one that was equally suitable for building a solid foundation through farming:

City defense construction

[Description: Based on the current strategic needs of the Great Qian Dynasty, deploying suitable new cities as forward positions is a prudent choice. This can strengthen the centralization of power, ensure vertical radiation to local areas, and rely on the chessboard layout of cities as an essential element.]

[Results: City development efficiency +8%, city population +2%]

The numbers at the end might not seem strong on their own, but considering that they directly add to the general concept of urban development level, the actual effect is quite strong. None of the long-term national policies have been weak.

It will dominate the theme for the next decade.

Xia He also acknowledged the importance of strategic planning for southern cities, since the northwest and north were already largely established and there was no need to invest further effort.

With the future increase in the number of polluting families, the border may even be turned into a fortress.

The South is the heartland, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she favored Daqian by reserving a prime rear area at the very beginning of the game. Of course, she couldn't just feed it to them; ultimately, it would depend on Feng Tianyin's management.

If you want it.

Come and get it yourself.

Since the long-term national policy has been decided, it means that frequent wars are not needed for the time being, so the military strategy must also be changed. She made the decision in a flash:

Military Strategy: Land Reclamation and Border Defense

[Description: Providing stability through military presence in border areas and developing production through military organization]

[Effect: Farming efficiency +5%, Army training +10%, Logistics +3%]

It's better to manage things well than to play well; this is the perfect example.

If Xia He encounters a distant border that she needs to guard against but doesn't want to spend a lot of money on military expenses, then settling down to farm and defend the border is a good choice, especially since the land is fertile and it's a perfect fit.

Enabled.

This approach ensured the combat effectiveness of the border troops without interfering with farming, achieving the best of both worlds.

The rest don't need to be changed; just keep the status quo. At most, there might be adjustments for specific cities, and even the information will be the same.

[Development Stage: Classical Feudal Era]

Mainstream Culture: The Doctrine of the Heavenly Way Sect

They won't change for decades or even longer, though they could change drastically overnight. Because once the population reaches Feng Tianyin's vision, the industrial technology tree should gradually be unlocked, and that's when things will truly flourish.

Similarly, other undiscovered civilizations are not sitting idly by and waiting for time to pass; they must also be expanding.

This is the prevailing theme of our times.

The Great Qian Society is the most advanced among them and must maintain its advantage.

"Your Majesty, since it's all for the long-term national policy of [city defense construction], why don't you just have the city production projects modified as well? Leave the rest of the religious and other operations to me."

Feng Tianyin offered her suggestion at the opportune moment.

She didn't want to trouble Heaven, but felt that if the other party operated a little longer, it would be a way to retain them, so she gave advice under that pretext.

Xia He thought about it again and realized that made sense. Since the decision had already been made, it didn't matter who came.

start.

In an instant, the vast will swept across all the cities within the Great Qian territory. When the small white jade statue gently pointed, the [City Construction Project: Expand the City Wall] was immediately activated, revealing its undisguised power.

The sudden leap in understanding the laws of the world has transformed into a rumbling, towering city wall.

The process of enabling administrator privileges is completely different from Feng Tianyin's; it is immediate and has outstanding effects.

"Such a big commotion?"

Xia He clicked her tongue in amazement, guessing that it was a derivative effect caused by psionic energy, which was convenient, but also quite frightening.

Wherever they went, the people of Daqian knelt and worshipped.

Rumble!

The city walls of all the cities that Xia He had operated on rose several inches higher with a roar, seemingly appearing out of thin air.

That terrifying spiritual energy reminded everyone of the supreme will, even if it defied common sense, it was still accomplished; only the Heavenly Dao could wield such authority.

"Praise be to the great Heavenly Way, and thank you for your protection."

"I must go to the capital during the next festival to see the city protected by the heavens."

"The construction period has been shortened."

"Look closely, even the areas that weren't properly compacted have been completely secured!"

Perhaps such an operation would produce other special changes in a simulated environment. Xia He was unaware of the specific details. After wandering around for a while, she turned her gaze away. This time, it took her a little bit of time.

It's probably related to the first-person perspective of the statue.

In other words.

The time difference depends on one's own adjustments from the outside world, and also on the degree of immersion in the world; the more immersed one is, the more one matches the flow of time.

As soon as she returned, she saw Feng Tianyin unconsciously touching the hem of the statue's palace dress.

"What's wrong? Did you get some dust on you?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of panic appeared on the usually indifferent face of the little robot, and she quickly and seriously replied:

"I'm tidying my clothes."

“Indeed, this court dress is a bit inconvenient. We’ll remodel it later…” Seeing Feng Tianyin’s regretful expression, Xia He immediately changed her tune: “Never mind, anyway, I’ve basically finished my tasks. This round is almost over.”

"Couldn't you stay a little longer?"

“Except for the stable time flow during the turn, I can only descend for a very short time, and my authority is not high, so it is unnecessary.”

"Understood. Thank you, and thank you Your Majesty for spending a little more time with me."

Feng Tianyin was overjoyed. She hadn't expected her creator to actually respond; she had been nervously making her request, but the other party had been so understanding. Perhaps their relationship wouldn't be so difficult after all.

SAN values ​​have all increased significantly.

Although she should always be in the "locked SAN value" state, I don't mind raising the limit.

The gray-haired girl solemnly picked up the white jade statue with both hands, then bowed deeply in preparation for seeing it off. Xia He waved to her, and the girl, puzzled, leaned closer.

The statue, which seemed to be leaning on something, stood on tiptoe and reached out to touch its bangs.

,.

The touch was the coolness of mutton fat jade, but that special spiritual energy did indeed touch her, carrying care and expectation.

"You've shown a lot of unexpected growth this time, that's great, keep it up."

"I will definitely continue to work hard."

Although she didn't quite understand the creator's evaluation criteria, Feng Tianyin confidently agreed. The statue, shrouded in a hazy glow, seemed to chuckle softly and then waved its hand gracefully.

That immense will was the first thing to leave his palm.

The white jade statue has been restored to its original celestial maiden scattering flowers pose, and is no longer dazzling. It only retains its exquisite craftsmanship and is a sculpture that could never exist in the modern world. It is quietly watching over us.

She looked up, and at the same time, the vast will in the sky receded into the distance.

call!

It was as if a long wind had swept by, smoothing out the wrinkles of the sky, hiding away the myriad auspicious clouds and colorful hues, and returning to the boundless and distant land.

The vast, empty background of the starry sky gradually closed in, and the dreamlike scene subsided.

Everyone stared blankly as he left.

The magnificent spectacle displayed by the Heavenly Way is even more impressive than before, probably a symbol of a strengthened connection with the present world.
