Chapter 863: The 1st Island Residents Representative Conference

Under the starry sky, a huge tree of fire and silver flowers appeared on the isolated island in the middle of the ocean.

All living creatures in the sea area thousands of miles in radius witnessed this beautiful and lonely flower blooming under the night sky.

The hot breath and brilliant flames all convey a message.

That is the arrival of Quan Yi and Huo Wu.

In the chaotic and dangerous deep sea area, countless undercurrents are surging beneath the sea surface.

But it was this giant, declarative firework that nipped all potential crises in the bud.

On Poseidon Island, a thousand kilometers away, the high priest Poseidon also noticed the fire in the sky.

Further away, in the depths of the Demon Whale Sea, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King opened his huge eyes and stared at the same fire.

These powerful men standing at the top of the continent all had expressions of shock and fear in their eyes.

They were strong enough to be able to feel the divine power contained in the flames.

Among them, Poseidon, as the high priest of the Temple of the Sea, knows the changes in this sea area better than the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

And because of this, she is more aware that this force may become the factor that changes the situation in the entire sea area.

"Ugh"

Thousands of thoughts turned into a helpless sigh.

That night, the high priest stopped and waited for the will of the sea god, but it never came.

The sparks that deter outsiders are a reassuring fireworks show to the island residents and the four sacred beasts of the island.

Even those in rural areas who have not come to the city can enjoy this scene.

Sparks filled with beneficial properties such as holiness, purification, and healing not only provide a grand visual enjoyment, but also eliminate a series of harmful substances such as various evils, viruses, etc. on the island.

Although all those who bathe in the fireworks cannot achieve the miraculous effect of increasing their lifespan out of thin air, at least the chance of getting sick is greatly reduced.

This is also the congratulatory gift that Quan Yi and Huo Wu brought to them.

This extravagant fireworks show, which spared no effort, lasted for a long time.

It's been a crazy night.

The residents are still immersed in the joy and excitement of the Harvest Festival, but as high-ranking officials on the island, they don't have time to enjoy it for too long.

A few days later, the senior officials who had properly handled the post-festival work gathered in a large conference room of the city government in Haili City under the leadership of Quan Yi and Huo Wu.

Here, in addition to the core members of the Quan family headed by Quan Li, there are also the Huo family, the Ye family, Lou Gao from the Blacksmith Association, Yuan the Blacksmith, and Jiang Jun from the Shipyard.

Zi Zhenzhu, Quan Ming and others who represented the armed forces also attended the meeting.

In addition to these familiar people, there were many other people gathered in the conference room.

They are representatives of various industries on the island and are also leaders in their respective fields.

Today, this is the first time that these leaders have gathered on such a large scale.

After taking their seats in an orderly manner, their eyes were all focused on the banner on the display stand.

It says:

'The first island residents' congress.'

A huge banner with red background and golden letters was placed in front of everyone.

Everyone who received the information in advance knew that with the return of Quan Yi, the true backbone hidden behind everyone, the situation on the entire island would undergo tremendous changes.

Today, they are at the center of the change, and they themselves will become part of the driving force of change. For this reason, they attended the meeting with a complex mix of nervousness, anticipation, and excitement.

"Ahem, distinguished guests, the meeting is about to begin. Those who have not yet taken their seats, please take your seats in an orderly manner."

At the host's instruction, the entire venue fell silent.

The host said without any delay: "Now, please invite the initiator of this meeting, Young Master Quan Yi, to come to the stage and speak."

On one side of the rostrum, Quan Yi's tall and straight figure walked onto the stage amid the applause and gaze of the crowd.

“Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend this meeting.

As the initiator, let me first explain to you the purpose and goal of holding this meeting.

It has been four years since we formulated the plan to develop the island. During this process, thanks to the support and cooperation of all parties, we have achieved very significant results.”

As he spoke, Quan Yi turned his gaze towards Huo Wu who was standing on the side of the rostrum.

Without saying a word, Huo Wu understood it in her mind, and a white light instantly shot out from her brows. Using her visual simulation ability, she projected a picture on the huge wall behind Quan Yi that was clear enough for everyone present to see.

Under everyone's astonished gaze, various simple and clear patterns and numbers began to appear on the whiteboard.

This scene is very common in modern scenes, especially in schools and workplaces.

PPT and presentations are always a test for introverts, but we have to admit that they are also excellent tools for explaining things to others.

Under Huo Wu's control, a simple and clear data table appeared on the white screen, with a large word displayed above the table.

"population."

Quan Yi took a deep breath, walked to the side and began to explain.

"Based on the population that has been attracted from the mainland in recent years, as well as the newborn population that has been born independently.

The total population living in the territory has reached a staggering 400,000!"

The numbers on the data table began to change in the form of animation as Quan Yi explained.

The changes depicted above are summarized from the first-hand data they have obtained over the past four years, or even longer periods of time.

Among them, there are also changes in population data based on islands, industries, and cities.

When the complicated data was presented to everyone in such a concise and vivid way, everyone couldn't help but be surprised.

Some people don’t even realize that the total population has now reached 400,000.

This population is enough to rival that of a medium to large town.

After letting everyone look at the data for a while, Quan Yi continued:

"As you can see, the population has exploded in just four years.

However, I show you this picture not only to show the previous achievements, but more importantly, the future trend. "

The data showing the overall population begins to shift to the total population change this year.

Among them, according to the comparison of the number of new population each month, this year's population growth has dropped sharply.

"From this chart, we can see that our population growth this year is decreasing.

The reason for this is very simple, that is, the way of absorbing down-and-out population from the mainland has gradually reached its limit.

It has become almost impossible to maintain the previous high-speed growth without attracting the attention of official forces.

This will naturally lead to the problem of slow development.”
