The Fredericks lingered under the ice sculpture for a few minutes. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd around them. A piece of news spread quickly. The LORD was about to announce something very important.

The news has sparked a lot of speculation, many people get together to discuss, the ice city became more noisy.

Five minutes later, a figure appeared directly above the ice city, and a huge voice rang out.

"Residents of Haichao islands, I am Lord Renault..."

The crowd immediately quieted down, and everyone raised their heads and listened attentively to the Lord''s speech.

"It''s the last night of 745, and in four hours, we''ll have a new year."

"I can tell you for sure that everyone''s life will be better than this year, and the Haichao islands will usher in a brighter future."

"Next, I will announce a newly formulated policy, which is the first and most important policy to be implemented in the new year."

"Starting from 746, that is, tomorrow, Haichao islands will officially implement the birth subsidy policy."

"All families who have obtained formal resident status in the territory will receive money subsidies from the administrative department as long as they have children. The more children they have, the more subsidies they will receive."

"If the family has one child, the family will receive a monthly subsidy of one silver dollar. If the family has two children, the subsidy will reach three silver dollars."

Heard here, the crowd sounded one after another exclamation.

Lord, I''m going to pay again!

And still pay every month!

"If you have three children, in addition to the monthly subsidy of five silver coins, when you apply for public rental housing, you can have priority to live in, free of charge, and the administrative department will not charge you any money!"

"After more than three children, the subsidy will be increased to three silver nals for each additional child in the family. That is to say, the subsidy for four children is eight silver nals per month, and the subsidy for five children is eleven silver nals per month."

"In addition, subsidies can always be received until the child reaches the age of 15..."

Hearing the word "15 years old", the atmosphere inside the ice city suddenly exploded.

According to a child''s monthly payment of 2 silver nals, you can get 24 silver nals in one year, and 720 silver nals in 15 years. This is a huge sum of money!

Although this gentleman has been more merciful than everyone imagined, he is even more generous than everyone imagined.

Many civilians could not help kneeling on one knee and began to pray in a low voice.

Frederick and his wife were excited. They looked at each other and said, "let''s have another child..."

This account is very easy to calculate. If you have one more child, you can not only get two more silver coins a month, but also get rid of the rent of public rental housing for four silver coins a month. Between the in and out, there are five silver coins a month and 60 silver coins a year.

In this era, the cost of raising children is very low, and the biggest expense is food. The food in the territory is very cheap. A child''s annual cost is only 20 Silver nals at most. For Frederick and his wife, they can earn 40 silver nals a year.

It''s a lot of money for a fool.

Therefore, as soon as the subsidy policy comes out, it becomes a profitable thing to have children.

In Renault''s view, this subsidy is not much at all. With the territory''s current population, the annual cost is no more than 80 guineas, which is just a drop in the bucket for him.

It''s very cost-effective to spend such a little money to achieve the goal of population explosion.

In the feudal era, excessive population was a burden, but in the industrial era, population was a dividend. The more population, the more wealth can be created, and a large part of this wealth belongs to Renault.

Moreover, if we want to slaughter the hybrids and occupy the whole alien world, we must have enough population.

Therefore, whether from the economic point of view or from the military point of view, population explosion is an imperative plan.

Renault has made up his mind to blow it up for 100 years.

It is the third day of the new year''s month.

When the popularity of the large-scale ice sculpture exhibition, which was popular among the common people, continued to ferment, the three-day New Year holiday was over, and the whole territory entered the state of full load operation again.

In the heavy snow, a motorcade appeared on the road covered with snow.

The leading vehicle is a magic bulldozer, or magic snow shovel.

The bulldozer bucket in front of it was replaced with a strange V-shaped bucket, which is nearly 5 meters long and more than 2 meters high.

When the snow shovel is driving from the snow, the leg deep snow is directly shoveled up, sliding along the V-shaped bucket to both sides and accumulating on both sides of the road.

After the snow shovel passed, there was only a thin layer of snow left.

In the past years, once there was heavy snow, the road would become extremely difficult to pass. At most, we could only use sled to pull some light goods, and large goods could not be transported at all.But with the magic snow shovel, no matter how deep the snow is, it is no longer an obstacle. This powerful machine can easily open a passage in the snow.

Moreover, the speed of snow shovel is quite fast. The driving speed of snow shovel is as high as 25 kmh. It only takes more than 20 minutes to clear a road from the territory warehouse to the wharf. If you only rely on manpower to clean up, 100 people will work hard in one day.

Compared with the original bulldozer, this construction machinery has made a lot of improvements.

The cockpit has become a fully enclosed cockpit, which is no longer a pothole with its own "panoramic skylight"; the chassis is a new generation of chassis, with a lot of optimization of the main structure and addition of damping system and braking system; the tires have become NIMA solid tires with metal wheels, which are no longer exotic wooden wheels.

The shock absorption system is the same as that on the 4-wheel all terrain vehicle, just a few sets of springs. The braking system is the latest achievement of the rune Research Institute. With it, the brake does not need to rely on the foot any more, just move your finger.

Thanks to magic black technology, this set of braking system is very simple. After activating the "brake Rune square plate", that is to say, after controlling the rune square plate of the braking system, the magic machine will stop rotating instantly and lock the wheels to achieve the braking effect.

Unlike the braking system on the earth car, it needs a series of complicated things, such as brake, brake pedal, brake master cylinder, and various pipelines.

This braking system also has the function of parking brake. After activating another Rune group on the square board of the braking rune, a micro magic machine will drive the "locking mechanism" to bite the wheels, and there is no need to move stones to block the wheels when parking.

In addition, the rune square board that controls the magic machine is upgraded to the second generation Rune Group [rotation], so that one driver can drive two magic machines at the same time, and the [mental resonance] Rune group is removed, so that two big men do not need to use the hand-in-hand "basic posture" to drive.

The above improvements greatly enhance the driving comfort and convenience, which can be seen from the driver''s expression.

He holds the control handle in both hands, his right thumb is close to the "master Rune square board" that controls the magic machine, and his left hand is close to the "brake Rune square board". He leans comfortably on the seat back, and his face is very comfortable.

The vibration of magic snow shovel is eliminated by the shock absorption system, which is no longer the same as before. After driving a few kilometers, the buttocks are numb, and the lower body can''t be felt after driving for two hours.

Behind the magic snow shovel are four magic tractors, each with two trailers, moving slowly in the snow.

This is the fleet of goods.

Every 8-meter-long trailer is filled with boxes of toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, candles, meatballs and other daily necessities, as well as luxury goods such as magic clock, and a large number of metal products, such as scissors, kitchen knives, metal pots and so on.

These goods will be sold to the southern human gathering places to exchange the territory for jinnar and A slave.

In addition, there are a large number of weapon samples, such as swords, guns, armor, shields.

In foreign maritime trade, arms are one of the most important commodities. These weapons will be displayed or presented to interested buyers as samples.

, relying on the excellent performance of the sea steel, Renault believes that these weapons will conquer the woodlouse of different territories and obtain large quantities of production orders for the territory.

Raw material steel is not in the list of goods, because in the early stage of tight transport capacity, selling Haichao steel directly is a fool''s job, and selling metal products can maximize profits.

After arriving at the Odin Island wharf, the dockers immediately began to work. Through the magic sling, boxes of goods were transported to the sailboats berthed in the berth.

After the convoy ran back and forth between the warehouse and the wharf for three times, the warehouses of Odin and Haichao were fully loaded, and the waterline was significantly reduced by one section.

Half an hour later, in the eyes of the consul lady and a large number of civilians, a loud voice echoed on the dock.

"Lord, you have orders to set sail..."

The Golden Road on the sea has officially set sail.
