People are building infrastructure in another world

Chapter 39 Interviewing an Architect

He looked at the man next to him suspiciously.

Miguel coughed reservedly, "I asked His Majesty for the Warm Stone Land, but the Warm Rock Land is too large, so he simply proposed my title."

Large area of ​​warm rock = earl title?

She doesn't understand this equation.

We'll have to have a good look at Miguel later.

This guy hides a lot of secrets. If you go to the imperial capital and get an earl back, it is reasonable to make enough military exploits, or make great contributions to the country or the royal family to be possible.

It also benefited from the change in Miguel's identity.

Only Ogri and Mosir were willing to come to Beichen territory.

The two parties formally sat down and chatted.

Aurora summed up the meaning of the two masters from the conversation.

Ogri himself has a team. He needs to understand the scale of Aurora's fence before he agrees to the project. The project is not big enough, and he doesn't want the team to travel from afar and waste time.To put it simply, if you have no money, don't suffer from me.

As for Mosir, he is single, and he came here to see if the Beichen Territory can support him for the elderly. If so, it would be fine for him to stay in the Territory permanently.

But when they came, they had already looked around the territory, and it was hard for them to believe that the territory where the bakery was able to do a good job turned out to be so dilapidated.

Yes, it is dilapidated, not even a town.

But the facts are in front of my eyes, I have seen the prosperity of the imperial capital, and compared it to Beichen.

People in the imperial capital ridiculed Beichen as a rural place behind their backs, so they were really stating the facts, not exaggerating.

The successful operation of the bakery only means that Beichen Territory has the money to build the city wall.

Mosier was a little disappointed. Magicians generally had a long lifespan, and some were powerful enough, even at the age of three hundred, but he was sure that he could not reach that height to break through the age limit.

But as long as Ogri stays to build the city wall, he will keep his promise to help build it before leaving.

Aurora didn't care what the two of them were thinking, she was full of smiles, looking at them was like looking at delicious pork.

I'm here, I want to leave, but I'm afraid I can't, there is still a follow-up to help her build the city wall.

Ogri and Mosier were unaware.

Ogri, who has a keen intuition for infrastructure projects, was very interested in the ditches dug outside, and he asked Aurora what the ditches were for.

Because there is no water in it, and Ogri has not seen the whole picture, so I don't quite understand the purpose.

All Aurora said was, "You'll understand in a while."

"We'll wait and see." Ogri joked, but didn't ask.

The first conversation was very pleasant, but the cooperation has not been confirmed yet, and further discussions are needed.

The two guests stayed in the castle for a while, waiting for the second conversation.

The maids patrol well and arrange people in the castle rooms.

As for Miguel's promotion from baron to earl, there was no surprise or joy. After the news spread, how should the territory live or how to live.

The life of the peasants has not been affected by the change of Miguel's status.

Servants are paid as usual.

Mrs. Taylor only cares about her recipes, and Lisa happily learns from Lily every day.

In the territory, life is as usual, and work is running in an orderly manner.

The territory of Beicheng was too calm, but the nobles outside the territory were anxious. They sent a letter again, this time no longer arrogantly urging the ball, but asking for an audience.

The lords are back, there is no excuse to disappear this time.

Yes, Aurora and Miguel still don't see them.

Because I was busy, I was so busy that I didn't have time to deal with these nobles.

Miguel was detained by Aurora in the study, counting the numbers, making accounts, and making plans for next year.

Miguel was tossed hard by various numbers. If Aurora hadn't made every data into a table for easy summary, he might have been tortured into a fool.

Throughout the summer, Aurora's bakery made a profit of [-] gold. In autumn, it undertakes the production of bread for large-scale banquets, and the money will be collected faster. After paying taxes, it can also use [-] gold for the territory construction fund.

Aurora read the mission content first.

6. The spring rains are continuous, and ditches are dug for better growth of crops.

Reward: Mushroom Appreciation (worth 50000 favorite points, is the motivation full?)

8. Combat power increased to [-].

Reward: Hair Growth Essence (permanent, worth 3 likes)
12. Select good seeds to grow higher-yielding crops
Reward: Native Potato Seeds

Increased daily tasks
4. Building the territory wall (progress (0/100)) rewards a lottery draw opportunity for every 1 progress.

5. Magic learning, completing the apprentice level trial (progress (0/100)) rewards a lucky draw opportunity for every 1 progress.

6. The daily task 2 is advanced, and the favorite value of the day exceeds 100
7. Daily task 3 advances, exercise for one hour, and increase combat power by 1 to win the lucky draw
8. In the early stage of goddess talent training, choose an art for further study, half an hour a day.

Among the special tasks, the task of digging ditches has been completed more than half, and it should be completed before winter comes.

As for Mission [-], Aurora's combat power has always been a hurdle, and I don't know how long it will take to get away from [-].She asked the system how much Miguel's combat power was worth.

The system can only give a roughly observed number, [-], and this is by no means Miguel's upper limit. His ability to face undead and monsters may be even higher.

Ten thousand represents not only a numerical improvement.

For example, in terms of combat power, Miguel's combat power is two hundred times that of Aurora's. In fact, none of the two hundred Auroras is Miguel's opponent. Kill all the hundred Auroras.

He's still so young and has so much potential.

So Aurora married a God of War properly, and Aurora's full sense of security also comes from this.

As for insect pests and pest disasters, Aurora still needs time. If the task given by the system is only to solve the pest problem, she can completely extract the insect repellent ability of plants to repel insects, but all insect repellent products are toxic, so-called pesticides.

Pesticides are much better than biological control.But once used, there is no need to do the task.

The yield of crops is not satisfactory now, and it will not be too late to consider pesticides after improved varieties come out.

In the study, Miguel finished what Aurora had arranged, and pulled a stool to sit beside her.Aurora hadn't paid much attention to him for a week, because he didn't mention the title promotion in advance, and Aurora was a little annoyed.

Sitting next to such a big stove, how could Aurora not know it? She turned her head and saw that Miguel had a well-behaved face. His hair had grown a lot and passed past the ears, but it did not damage his appearance at all.

He looked over without moving, and Aurora didn't continue to express her anger, "What's wrong?"

Miguel reached out, hugged her, and buried his head on her neck, "If I die early, will you be sad?"

Aurora felt that he was weird, who died early, was inauspicious, and suddenly sensational Miguel, she was not used to it.

"I will be sad if you are injured, and if you die early, I will remarry."

Miguel: "..." The strong man was heartbroken.

"You are already mine, and you won't die early. God wants to take you in, and you have to ask me if I agree." Aurora is confident that Miguel will not die young because of the system.

Miguel hugged her and took her into his arms, without mentioning the topic of life and death, "I brought you a gift."

"What gift?" Aurora blinked, "Why didn't you give it to me immediately after you came back, because you knew I would annoy you, and you deliberately coaxed me at a critical moment?"

"No, because it needs a few days to get used to it." Just then someone knocked on the door, it was Susan, but Susan didn't go in wisely, and only put down a basket.

"Go and have a look." Miguel let go of Aurora.

Aurora gave him a sideways look, mysteriously.

Aurora walked over and lifted the cloth covering the basket. Inside the basket was a fluffy white cat.

With the sudden light, Maomao looked up and saw Aurora, and it made a delicate cry of "Mimi".

It's a cat. Does she want a cat?
Aurora's heart melted, and she reached out to hug it.

The little guy has a pair of super beautiful blue eyes, a round face, and round eyes, like a combination of puppet and gold gradient.

Leaving the basket suddenly, the little guy stretched out his paws in a panic.

Aurora caressed the little guy's chin, maybe because of the special soothing effect, the little guy quickly calmed down, curled up, and didn't dare to show his paws again.

"Where did you find it?" Few people in the different world keep cats. Among the many allusions in the science popularization of temples, cats are unknown. They are withdrawn by nature. The key point is that they only eat meat, so only some large manors will raise one or two. .

Ordinary people simply cannot afford it.

"On the island of Fugui. There is a group of wild cats there. I saw it abandoned in a crevice of a rock, and brought it back." Cats like to catch mice and bugs, and Miguel thought that Aurora was missing one.

Aurora was very happy to see that Miguel's gift was sent to her heart.

Aurora sat back on Miguel's lap and planted two kisses on his face, "Thank you honey."

Miguel turned his head to look at her, his eyes full of stars.

Her slender fingers rubbed her little wife's cheeks, and when Aurora smiled, there were two deep dimples at the corners of her mouth, which were very sweet.

Falling in love after marriage is warm and sweet.

The main husband will not get to the bottom of it. Miguel must have noticed Aurora's anomaly, but he just doesn't ask.

He also subconsciously helped to cover up. Whenever Mrs. Taylor and the servants were in doubt, he would stand up and take all the responsibility.

At first, Miguel felt that he was going to die anyway, and it would be better to clear the way for Aurora.

After officially falling in love, Miguel fell into the damned tenderness of his little wife, which made him feel terrified.

The Wannian bachelor either doesn't fall in love, but when he talks about it, he is in love.

Miguel is the king of the love mind.

At this moment, his mind was full of, she kissed me again, she kissed me again, what should I do, should I kiss back?Will she think I'm abrupt, but if she doesn't kiss him back, she might think I don't like him.

Seeing him staring blankly, Aurora noticed that his star eyes were covered by long bangs, making it impossible to see the whole picture. She suddenly thought, "Let me help you cut your hair."

???

Miguel, who was still thinking about whether to kiss back, wondered if he had missed a sentence, why he suddenly jumped to cut his hair.

Miguel always likes to cut his hair by himself, but when Aurora asked for it, he left it to her.

"Don't worry, I cut hair professionally." Although I only cut cats and dogs, it should be similar.

Aurora knows what to do.

Miguel has no attachment to his hair, at worst he shaves it off.

Half an hour later, Aurora admired the work she made by herself.

The exquisite facial features and neat hairstyle completely disappeared the childishness on Miguel's face, and the tough guy breath came to his face, turning him from a puppy into a wolf dog.

Aurora's heartbeat point is full, and it's better to act than to be moved, so Aurora kisses.

Miguel went from a jerky response to proficient control of the initiative, and in the end it was inseparable.

Aurora pushed him away, gasping for breath, "Wait a year and a half before I can do it."

Miguel nodded, reluctantly let go of her, and left the study, for fear of staying any longer and wiping his gun away.

When the hair was cut, the hair fell all over the place, and Aurora called Susan to come in and clean it.

She sat at the desk to calm down, picked up a pen, and wrote down the requirements for building the city wall.

Afterwards, Aurora had an appointment with Ogri. Ogri was obviously more serious than in the first conversation. When it came to architecture, his professionalism did not let him slack off.

He has seen Aurora's request, because it adopts the highest standard, which is similar to the extremely strong defensive wall of the palace.Ogri said truthfully: "It needs at least [-] gold divisions. Are you sure you want to build it like this?"

"Sure, if you want to do it, make it with good quality." Aurora expanded the scope of the city wall several times, intending to include people from the two villages, and simply build a manor wall.

Slave peasants are private property in this era, belonging to goods that can be bought and sold as land owners change.The reason why Aurora circled some fields and villages was also thinking about building a large manor to separate the planned city in the future.

It is also good to restrict slave farmers from entering and leaving the territory, or it can be said to prevent other territories from coming to steal people and technology.

Farming techniques will be made public, but publicity doesn’t mean free. Nobles won’t appreciate you for free, they’ll just think you’re stupid.And secretly gleeful, greedily waiting for you to do even more stupid moves.

It is better to be a profiteer than a fool.

It only cost [-] gold, and she can get it back from other territories later.

Aurora and Ogri discussed for several days and had a third interview before confirming the final plan.

At this time, Aurora took out a non-disclosure agreement, the content of the non-disclosure agreement is very simple, Ogri, Ogri's team and Mosier must not tell what happened in the territory, otherwise she and Miguel will The right to demand sky-high compensation.

No wonder Aurora's price is so straightforward, it turns out there is a follow-up.

"It's hard to put it bluntly, what if you frame us?" Ogri was fascinated by the thirty-thousand-dollar project, and he could get tens of thousands of gold for the design fee and supervision project fee alone. Isn't that true? The amount is small, but every time he signs a contract, he is very cautious. Nobles like to play tricks the most, and it is common to lose money.

If it weren't for the fact that the team he held was large enough, he wouldn't have dared to negotiate terms with these nobles and get back the project money.

Aurora revealed generously: "Maybe I can tell you that we have made a new breakthrough in terms of food. The fields can no longer fall fallow, and the harvest of crops can be increased by at least one-fifth per acre of land. This is only the smallest increment, and it can be increased by one-third at most." , After the excavated ditches are filled with water, the output will be further increased. Do you think I can let you talk about it."
