Sid couldn't help marveling at the speed of the infrastructure development before his eyes.
His assistant, Paine, standing beside him, also felt somewhat dazed. In a trance, he found everything he saw outside almost unbelievable.
Although building a road like this in half a year wasn't particularly difficult,
the construction teams from Qinggang Shelter could finish it quickly as long as they received the assignment.
The key point was that this shelter had been built by people they still mockingly called primitives.
That was rather hard to swallow.
An indescribable feeling surfaced in Paine's heart.
It wasn't exactly humiliation, nor was it jealousy.
As someone who had witnessed Qinggang New City's development and reconstruction step by step, he always felt that the construction of this Tian Yuan Territory was much more practical than having a bunch of wanderers noisily build houses at someone's command.
"Yes. Our new city built so many residences, but in the end, their only use was to give the wanderers somewhere to live. Economically, there was no development at all. We were still confined to a small area."
Sid swallowed, then continued in a somewhat unwilling tone.
"I once suggested to Commander Edmund that he send people to build a road connecting every shelter in the city, but it ultimately failed."
"That isn't your fault, sir."
Paine shook his head and looked through the curtain at Fluttering Moth, who was driving outside.
"This place is different from us, isn't it?"
It really was different.
Who could have imagined that a place called primitive possessed the means to threaten Qinggang Shelter? Who could have imagined that their shelter wasn't built underground, but had instead developed on the surface? And then there was that administrator.
He seemed much more reliable than the stubborn old fellows in Qinggang Shelter.
