Lord of the Misty World

Chapter 120 Building the City Wall
"My lord, the summer harvest work has been completed, and the villages and towns in various places have completed farming with the help of the cattle supported by the territory. A new round of construction of the territory can begin."

Inside Qinghe Ling Castle, Zhang Xiu reported to Di Fenghui.

"Because the high-yielding crops used in this cultivation, just one summer harvest, the territory has harvested the rations of tens of thousands of people for a year.

Moreover, after the tax payment, the villagers also had enough food for the winter. "

While talking about the tax this time, Zhang Xiu was very excited. This is the first time that the Qinghe leader has paid the tax under the condition that the land is distributed to households.And this time the taxation has achieved very good results, which proves that there is nothing wrong with Di Feng and Zhang Xiu's experiment this time.

"Next, the villages in the territory will seize the time to build the canals in each village according to the plan, and I have asked the people from the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department to send instructors to guide these villagers on how to dig cellars to store the harvested potatoes and sweet potatoes."

"Now the food is in storage, and the territory has added a lot of rations." Di Feng was also very happy when he saw the results reported by Zhang Xiu.This time, the taxation has filled several large granaries that have just been built in Qinghe City. It is said that there is food in hand, so don't panic.

After gaining the confidence of food, Qinghe City will start the second round of expansion.During this month's development, the schools inside Qinghe Ling, new libraries, warehouses, hospitals, orphanages, nursing homes, and resettlement units have all been completed one after another.

Relying on the cement and steel structure, the speed and firmness of the building are guaranteed.Residents living on the second and third floors do not have a problem with normal life, but the units do not have yards, and they need to carry buckets to the water truck to collect water.

But the floor itself is not high, and it is not a problem for the residents who have popularized their cultivation.Moreover, Di Feng specially popularized hot water stations to encourage the residents of the territory to drink boiled water, and opened the first large bathhouse in Qinghe City in the name of the Lord's Mansion.

This bathhouse uses rune heating technology, which does not need to burn charcoal at all, and can also ensure the heating of the bathhouse. When the bathhouse was built for the first time, it was warmly welcomed by the residents of Qinghe City.

Moreover, Di Feng also asked the city lord's mansion to open a snack bar next to the bathhouse, providing simple food and a small amount of alcohol. This measure allowed the workers who got off work every day to take a hot bath and drink A glass of iced wine earns a lot every day.

After the craftsmen in the territory clicked on the rune technology tree, although due to the industrial level and lack of talents in the territory, a large number of equipment and devices could not be built, but it was not completely fruitless.

After the heating rune was applied to metal smelting, the craftsmen applied the heating rune to boiling water, so there were bathhouses and hot water stations.

In Difeng's castle, a house was also converted into a bathroom, so that you can take a hot bath conveniently.

And after changing the flame rune to the ice rune, it can be refrigerated, and it is not a problem to make some ice cubes in summer.

When the second batch of buildings to be built by the Qinghe collar is completed, Di Feng plans to open a cold drink shop in Qinghe City to sell ice cubes and cold drinks, and dig an underground warehouse in the castle as an underground cold storage. food.

When new factories were built one by one, the crowded schools and hospitals were diverted.The factory buildings that have been built, the subordinates of the company, the carpenter's shop, the blacksmith's shop, the stonemason's pottery shop, and the tailor's shop are all assigned to a factory building as a place for their own research and development and production.

And there are several factories that have become rune currency foundries, weaving factories, metal smelting factories, sword cold weapon forging factories and rifle production factories.

The original batch of residential buildings in the city also accommodated a group of outstanding refugee families, but these houses were only handed over to these refugees in advance. enough money to buy the house.

Of course, because it is a reward, the total amount of debt repayments of these refugee families is greatly reduced compared to the selling price of a house.The reason why Di Feng decided to use this method is because these houses are not clothes and food after all.

As a fixed asset for residents, it is impossible to distribute it for free. After all, it was built with manpower and material resources in the territory. If it is directly distributed to those new refugee families for free, it will be somewhat unfair to the original Qinghe City residents who were previously demolished and resettled. For these refugee families, they will not cherish it very much, but it will easily arouse the refugees' desire for the territory.

After this system was established in the territory, those subdivided villages and towns were not distributed for free to build houses, but charged for building materials and labor.

Next, the second part of the planning is still a school, a hospital, and larger warehouses, factories, and some residential buildings.

In addition, the outer city wall of Qinghe City has begun to be planned, with a side length of one kilometer and a circumference of four kilometers. There are four gates in the east, west, north, south, and west. The west gate is turned into a dock because it is close to the lake in the west. .

The height of the entire city wall is scheduled to be 12 meters, the height of the four-story building, and the width of 20 meters.The design is made of concrete mixed with cement and sand and gravel, and some steel bars are added for reinforcement.

Now Qingheling iron ore smelting speed is very fast, if only some steel bars are supplied, it can still be supplied.When the big project of building the city wall appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of the residents of the territory.

The construction of the city wall required a large number of workers to be recruited, and various buildings in the city did not stop working. Every village received news of job recruitment. A large number of villagers came to work in Qinghe City during the slack season.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Di Feng's first bank opened, followed by the Qinghe leader issuing documents to abolish the work point system in the future.

After that, the wages of the recruited workers will be paid directly. The existing workers can go to various construction sites to settle the work points they have accumulated before, and exchange currency from the bank with the batch slips. The work point batch slips circulating in the territory can also be exchanged for currency.

With the help of the second round of large-scale construction in Qinghe City, Di Feng's Lord's Mansion and General Administration Office spread the currency.And based on the grain in Qinghe City, determine the currency value, one kilogram of grain is worth ten copper coins.

The wages of a worker for a day's work are set at ten copper coins.On the first day this document was issued, the bank exchanged a large amount of copper coins and a small amount of rune currency.

After investigation, for the finely minted currency, coupled with the endorsement of the Lord's Mansion, and the confidence of the residents in the Lord's Mansion, the entire Qinghe Territory has a very high acceptance of currency, and the issued currency will soon circulate in the territory.

In particular, the large denomination rune currency that contains energy has been welcomed by some vendors in the territory.

In order to cooperate with the territory's currency policy, the taverns and hotels opened by the Lord's Mansion began to accept the territory's currency.And the tailor shop, blacksmith shop and other departments affiliated to the territorial government office have also begun to accept rune currency.

With such a multi-pronged approach to popularization, it can be seen that soon the copper coins and rune currency of the entire Qinghe Territory will completely replace the labor distribution slips and become a part of the daily life of the residents of the territory, thus improving the currency of the Qinghe Territory The system makes the operation of Qinghe collar more smooth.

To the south of Qinghe City, cross the jurisdiction of Qinghe City and continue south for a few kilometers, which is Rock Town.

On a hill in the south of Rock Town, Chen Dao and Bai Mu led a brigade and a squadron to clean up the wild beasts and monsters on the hill.

At this time, in the forest, suddenly a scream of a ferocious beast resounded through the forest, startling a large number of birds.

In the forest, in front of Chen Dao and Bai Mu, a huge tiger with a height of three meters and a length of more than six meters smashed heavily to the ground.

Chen Dao and Bai Mu stood aside, staring at the tiger, not daring to relax for a moment, for fear that the tiger would turn its light back.At this time, there were dents on the armor of the two of them, and it seemed that they had experienced a tragic battle.

On the side, Chen Dao took off his helmet, wiped some sweat from his forehead caused by the fierce battle, and panted. "This big guy was finally solved by us. This battle was really not easy. Now we can finally climb over this mountain."

"Battalion Commander, I'm afraid this big guy has to be at the advanced level of Bronze. The two of us can barely fight together. If we were close in the previous battle, we may be the ones who fell, but in the end it is the battalion commander. You are better at it." " Bai Mu stood aside, looking at Chen Dao with admiration.

"If it wasn't for Battalion Commander Chen Dao, you were the main attacker, I'm afraid I would have explained here."

At this time, Chen Dao also recovered some strength and said. "If it wasn't for the mountainous terrain where there is no way to command the cavalry, how could this tiger be so strenuous? I can take care of it with the troops alone."

"Report."

At this time, a soldier came up and said in front of Chen Dao and Bai Mu.

"Report to the Battalion Commander, Captain, we found a special situation on the other side of the mountain, and you need to go there." From the soldier's eyes, a trace of shock could be seen. Obviously, what the soldier said was not that simple.

Looking at the soldier and listening to the report, Chen Dao and Bai Mu were a little puzzled. They stood up and straightened their armor.

Chen Dao asked the soldier. "What did you find?"

"This, I'm afraid you need to go and see it yourself, battalion commander." The soldier hesitated, as if he didn't know how to describe this matter. "Yes, we found a city on the other side of the mountain."

Seeing the soldier's shock, Chen Dao didn't say anything, stood up and walked to the top of the hill.Looking at the situation on the other side of the mountain, Chen Dao's eyes widened for a moment.

At the foot of the hill, you can see that in the middle of the forest, a town with a lot of concrete buildings is located in this valley.

Looking at the reinforced concrete jungle at the foot of the mountain, Chen Dao murmured. "It really is a city."
