Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 68 Opening the Blood Sweat Mine

Everything he bought from Qiangdi was sold.

Erguotou 200 taels a bottle.

Happy water 30 taels a bottle.

Twelve taels of silver for soap...

This is going crazy!
Li Gaoyi bought so many things, spent less than two taels of silver, and sold them for more than 2000 taels!
He doesn't think about anything else now, he just wants to go back to the strong land as soon as possible, then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things, and sell them outside the Great Wall.

He found that not only Erguotou, but also everything in the supply and marketing cooperative is a treasure, and it is easy to sell!

This time, he wants to form a caravan.

He has money.

More than 2000 taels of silver are enough for him to buy a few horses, build two carts, hire a few people, and form a caravan instead of running away alone.

Qiangdi has a four-wheeled carriage, which seems to be very good. It can pull a lot of goods and sit comfortably.

And that tall horse, called a Sharma.

It's a pity that I didn't see any carriages and Sharmas for sale.

Zhao Cheng might not be willing to sell such military supplies.

Even if it is willing to sell, that kind of horse is too eye-catching.

The route that ordinary caravans can take, the kind of horses that go, if something happens properly, they will either fail to pass the customs, or be robbed when they leave the customs...

Li Gaoyi knew the Tartars' love for horses very well.

With money, Li Gaoyi's thoughts drifted a little far.

Expanded!

……

Zhao Cheng went around the two coal mines and basically understood the scale of the coal mines.

The quality of these two coal mines is good, they belong to the semi-open-pit type, and mining is not difficult.

Even so, with the technology of this era, the efficiency would be very impressive if it was mined entirely by manpower.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Zhao Cheng.

Open the system store and select the mining equipment area.

When Zhao Cheng saw those mining equipment, his scalp tingled.

【Main and auxiliary shaft hoisting winches, main fan fans, drainage pumps, main pressure fans, coal shearers, hydraulic supports, scraper conveyors, bridge loaders, roadheaders, fixed belt conveyors, up and down hill winches... ...]

Not only is there a wide variety, but there are hundreds of types of equipment of all sizes.

Moreover, the prices are very high.

This set will cost at least a few hundred million.

Zhao Cheng looked at his system wallet balance and almost cried.

[System balance: 28 yuan. 】

Zhao Cheng has expanded his influence too quickly recently, and has been engaged in infrastructure construction.

Build warehouses, pave roads, dig sewers, build water towers...

Each item is invested with a large amount of money.

The army under him has expanded to a hundred people, and the training has been opened up, and it is like a gold swallowing beast.

Relying on the income from cutting trees alone can make ends meet!
Any equipment is now unaffordable.

"It's useless to be able to afford it. No one is on hand, and no one can use the equipment if they have it!

talent!No matter where you go, the most scarce thing is always talent.

Just taking advantage of the time to save money, first open a school and train talents. "

Zhao Cheng could only comfort himself.

"We can't be idle right now, we should use primitive methods to mine coal mines first.

Once these two coal mines are mined, everything will be available. "

Fortunately, there is nothing else in this era, but manpower is cheap.

As long as you take care of the food, you can have as many people as you want.

Labor is too cheap.

Zhao Cheng first exchanged some picks, iron drills, big hammers, shovels, trolleys, baskets...

With these simple devices, a sweat mine can be started.

Zhao Cheng's eyes swept over several small flag officers.

"As you all know, I have been promoted to Hundred Household Officer.

However, Wu Chun played a trick and arranged for me to be a hundred households in the chemical marketing camp.

Strong land does not belong to the chemical marketing camp. "

One word from Zhao Cheng made the atmosphere tense.

"My lord, I will definitely follow my lord!"

"I want to follow my lord too!"

"Where the adults go, we will go there!"

"..."

All the sergeants of the powerful army expressed their opinions one after another, all of them were emotional.

Zhao Cheng nodded.

His hard work was not in vain.

The strong army is not the strong army of the imperial court, but the strong army of Zhao Cheng.

"There's no need to be so impassioned."

Zhao Cheng smiled.

"Although Qiangdi doesn't belong to the marketing camp, what's the difference if it's thirty or fifty miles away?
Strengthen the marketing and marketing family!Nominally, the strong land belongs to the Third Fort.

But in fact, what should we do, what should we do.

Could it be that Zhang Wei still dares to stop us from communicating with each other? "

Niu Dali and the others were taken aback.

Then, ecstasy.

"Yes! What should we do, what should we do!
If Zhang Wei dares to stop him, I will kill him with one shot! "

Niu Dali stared.

Now he doesn't take Zhang Wei and these frontier soldiers into his eyes at all.

Having fought several victories in succession, the soldiers of the strong land army all had high morale and high self-confidence.

"Keep this emotion. Zhang Wei will definitely pester them later. Then, you can use this gesture to frighten them."

Zhao Cheng reached out and patted Niu Dali on the shoulder.

Niu Dali was immediately encouraged.

Only Liu Fei hesitated to say something, but didn't speak.

Zhao Cheng glanced at Liu Fei lightly.

Liu Fei's background is somewhat different from everyone else's.

Before that, he didn't charge at night.

Yebushou is more elite than ordinary pier soldiers, and their income is also higher.

If Zhao Cheng hadn't crossed over, there would be one person present who could have enough to eat, and that would be Liu Fei.

Of course, it's just barely enough to eat.

Zhao Cheng expressed his intention to continue to occupy the powerful land, and Niu Dali and others followed without hesitation.

Only Liu Fei knew that this approach was tantamount to chaos, and showed a hint of dissuasion.

"Nine out of ten Zhang Wei has already gone to strong ground.

It's time for us to rush back too, and we can't let him take advantage of the loopholes. "

Zhao Cheng said, looking at Liu Fei.

"Liu Fei, you stay here!

I will give you a banner man, and you will be responsible for guarding the two charcoal mountains, recruiting workers, and mining coal.

In addition, I will send you a banner auxiliary soldier later to help guard the Carboniferous Mountain. "

Liu Fei was slightly taken aback.

Some surprises and some disappointments.

Staying here to guard the Carboniferous Mountain is equivalent to staying away from the power center of Zhao Cheng's small group!
He quickly realized that it was because he hesitated just now and was not firm enough.

Zhao Cheng was beating him.

"Yes, my lord! My lord, please rest assured! The subordinates dare not have second thoughts, and will definitely help your lord to protect the Carboniferous Mountain."

After thinking about this clearly, Liu Fei quickly expressed his opinion.

"Don't think too much about it. These two carboniferous mountains are very important.

In the next period of time, whether our chemical marketing can develop rapidly depends on these two carbon dioxide mountains.

The mining speed of these two carboniferous mountains determines our development speed! "

Zhao Cheng comforted Liu Fei a few words.

After making arrangements, he returned to the strong ground with four small flags.

……

What Zhao Cheng expected was right.

Indeed, Zhang Wei rushed to the strong ground immediately.

However, he failed to enter the strong ground, but was stopped by pier guards on duty at the intersection.
