With the increase in population and the great increase in productivity, a huge problem was placed in front of the town of Limburg.

The sales speed of the product cannot keep up with the production speed of the product.

There is a huge backlog of goods in the warehouse, resulting in nowhere to store new products and rotting old products.

For example, the taste of golden wheat bread is fragrant and sweet, but the shelf life is only six months.

Another product "brick bread", the taste is a little unpalatable, but can be kept for a year.

But no matter whether it is half a year or a year, in the process of clearing the stock in recent days, more than 5,000 tons of two kinds of bread have been processed.

The same goes for canned meat, which throws away more than two thousand tons.

The waste is extremely serious, and Lao Sun, the person in charge of the warehouse, is distressed and blames himself, even saying that he didn't keep it well and let the good things go bad, and at the same time he is very worried, will he be punished?

"It's okay old grandson, it's not your problem, it's that our product sales speed is too slow. ”

Zhou Ming comforted Lao Sun and understood the root of the problem.

Overproduction.

Bread, canned meat, fur clothing, among the three categories of goods, except for fur clothing, which are sold cleanly, other goods have a backlog of surplus.

In order to reduce waste, the operating rate of the factory had to be reduced, and the workers' work and rest arrangements were changed from five days off and two days off to four days off and three days off every week, and the work week was still an eight-hour work system.

Even so, the production of bread and canned meat is still in excess of demand.

Town Chamber.

"The road, or because of the road, although many merchants are willing to come to Limburg Town, but the road conditions still make many of them discourage this plan, because the farther the road, the more dangerous and unprofitable. ”

Zhou Ming pointed out the problem and said: "Only by building a flat, wide and relatively safe road will more merchants come to Limburg Town and sell more products." ”

"Build roads?"

Uncle Xia was puzzled: "What kind of road to build?

Wu Yong, the deputy mayor of the town, also asked: "What if others don't let us build the road in front of their door?"

The participants raised all kinds of questions, and felt that no matter what the road was, it was not so easy to repair...... It will be constrained by all aspects, even the town of Limburg can independently bear the cost of road construction.

"If this road hadn't been built, the town of Limburg would have been like this for a long time, and it wouldn't have been able to develop even more. ”

Zhou Ming said with a solemn expression: "This road will bring us certain risks, but it can also bring huge benefits!"

Because this road is a "cement road" more than 1,000 miles long that leads directly to Jinyan City.

Not bad!

Cement, recently Zhou Ming led a research team and successfully fired it.

He led the researchers, originally wanted to use several special soils to fire some high-value ceramics, but after the kiln was opened, the "ceramics" were fired into a pile of powder, and after sprinkling water on this pile of powder, it soon became something as hard as a rock, which is a cement with very good characteristics, not only hard, but also has a certain toughness.

It can be used to build roads.

The reserves are also extremely abundant.

Zhou Ming also found that although the metal elements in this plane are rare, most of the non-metallic compounds can retain their original physical and chemical properties, or even better.

For example, glass and cement are relatively easy to make, and ceramics are also quickly developed.

A piece of exquisite glass, not to mention the price in the big city, is the ex-factory price of the glass factory in Limburg Town, which reached 500 spirit coins a piece, and the merchants rushed to buy it, and the supply exceeded the demand.

There is also a rare large luxury vanity mirror with a length of 2 meters and a width of 0.5 meters, which is priced at 1 spirit brick (1 spirit brick = 10,000 spirit coins), because the annual output is only ten, merchants are queuing up to book, and 100 have been booked so far.

Therefore, as long as there is a road, a larger market and a market, all industries in Limburg Town, whether low-end or high-end, can take off at a high speed and make money.

It's just that......

Some people will definitely ask, Limburg Town is already very rich now, no matter how rich it is, is it not afraid of becoming a "fat sheep" in the eyes of other forces?

And the target of Limburg Town's access is actually Jinyan City, which has 100,000 households and nearly one million people, if it is targeted by the high-level forces in this city and connected by cement roads, it is not looking for death at high speed?

It may be that the road is in worse condition, which is more in the interests of the town of Limburg.

That being said, Zhou Ming was determined to build roads, not only for the purpose of increasing the sales of goods, but also for another purpose.

Expand the population of Limburg Town.

The aim is to increase the population of Limburg from less than 4,000 to 100,000 within five years.

Expand the town of Limburg into a city.

The question is: how can he do it in five years, bringing a population of nearly 100,000 to the tiny town of Limburg?

It can only be done when the concrete road is repaired there, and the work of the "immigration team" can be carried out there.

When the road was repaired to Jinyan City, the goal of the immigration team was mainly to become this city with a population of nearly one million, and at a tenth of the proportion, it would not be a problem to get a population of 100,000 from Jinyan City.

Because today's Limburg Town, has been famous for hundreds of miles around the "legendary place", here is full of wealth, everywhere is full of opportunities, come here to develop gold diggers, every year there are hundreds, after coming, not only will not go again, but will bring the whole family here, registered as a household registration in Limburg Town.

However, the influence of Limburg Town is still not big enough, and the immigrants it attracts every year are not very many, so Zhou Ming needs to make a name while building the road through the project of "Limjin Road".

So the benefits of this road are manifold, and there are also disadvantages.

Whether it will be repaired or not depends on how the decision-makers will evaluate.

And Zhou Ming, as the main decision-maker, still successfully ruled out the public opinion and slapped the board: repair!

Organize the engineering staff immediately and start repairing!

There are three reasons for this.

First, the number of guests in Limburg Town has increased recently, from the original two to the current seven.

Among the 5 newly added people, four of them are husband and wife, and they all have children, and their cultivation is above the middle stage of Qi refining, and the most powerful one is actually a strong person in the late stage of Qi refining.

These two couples are old acquaintances of Su Yuanlong and Wang Caifeng, and the relationship is very good, Su Yuanlong and his wife successfully invited them to come over, not to mention, the treatment level of the four people has also been pressed to 30,000 spirit coins / year, not too much, not too little, of course, Zhou Ming also promised that he would give them a salary increase in the future.

The last guest Qing is a 28-year-old single female monk, her appearance is not beautiful, but a bit like a handsome man, often disguised as a man, others can't see the problem, her voice is thick, and her name is also very masculine: Jiang Ruonan.

Jiang Ruonan has a peculiar physique and outstanding talents, and his cultivation has actually reached the peak of the late stage of qi refining, and it is very likely that he will break through to the condensation stage and enter the new realm of powerhouses.

What's even more surprising is that as the highest guest in Limburg Town, Jiang Ruonan has no requirements for treatment, but instead says that as long as she can stay in Limburg Town for a few years, give her a quiet room to cultivate, and when she successfully breaks through to the condensation stage, she doesn't need the treatment of a spirit coin.

Zhou Ming felt strange about her request, and then saw the other six guest secretaries, their expressions were strange, as if they had hidden feelings, so their faces changed, and they thought of the key.

"This Jiang girl, I'm afraid it's not troublesome, and she wants to avoid trouble here, right?"

"Miss Jiang's cultivation is so superb, she was forced to run away, your enemy, cultivation must not be low, right?"

Zhou Ming looked at her expression, and sure enough, he saw a trace of uneasiness and panic, so he bowed and said: "Miss Jiang, it's better to go to that big city and find a big force to shelter her. ”

Jiang Ruonan's face turned red, and he hesitated: "I only stayed for a short time, and I won't cause you trouble, and besides, the strong enemy was also thrown off by me, and for a while, I couldn't find me." ”

"What if you find it?"

Zhou Ming asked with a calm face.

"Then I'll go myself. ”

"You're gone, and what about the strongman who gets angry and takes revenge?

Zhou Ming bowed again: "Miss Jiang, the contemptible person is willing to give 100,000 spirit coins as the girl's expenses and entanglements along the way." ”

"You ......"

Jiang Ruonan pointed at Zhou Ming, his face turned red, tears rolled in his eyes, and he was just about to let out his words and leave, I don't want your stinky money, but the other two monks standing on the side gave her a look.

"Rub~"

Jiang Ruonan immediately understood, pulled out the thin sword at his waist, put it on Zhou Ming's neck, and said angrily: "I just want to stay here for a few days, you have repeatedly excused yourself, it is very unreasonable, if you do this again, I will kill you!"

Feeling the cool sword qi coming from his neck, as well as the strong aura emanating from the woman in front of him, Zhou Ming was shocked to realize that this woman was in the late stage of qi refining, and he was not in the middle stage of qi refining.

This woman wants to kill herself, it's really a matter of three or five moves at most.

And the six guest secretaries next to him had no intention of rescuing...... They were friends of the friar.

Therefore, Zhou Ming immediately changed his words and said: "Miss Jiang, don't be angry, the contemptible people thought about it, and thought that the girl could live here temporarily, stay for a while, and the contemptible people would settle down and entertain them carefully, so as to fulfill the friendship of the landlord." ”

"Hmph~"

Jiang Ruonan put down his sword, snorted and said, "It's pretty much the same." ”

After leaving the room, Zhou Ming saw a trace of shame on the faces of several guests, but he was still expressionless, and had a clearer understanding of the nature of this world.

The strong are respected!

said in his heart: "In the future, the so-called guest secretary, if you can, you won't recruit, everything, you still have to rely on yourself!"

In addition to the guest qing, the strength has been greatly enhanced, and the number of the Township Protector Army has also increased to 300 people by offering high salaries and recruiting surrounding hunters, and most of them are full of crossbows, and Zhou Ming's next goal is to expand the number of the Township Protector Army to 10,000.

The last one is related to a secret weapon, this weapon is based on the unique particles of the "Spirit Yuan" plane, a special weapon developed, although each piece costs as much as 10,000 spirit coins, but its power is ten times that of the God Arm Crossbow.

The requirements for use are not high, and monks in the early stage of Qi refining can use it.

Even, on this secret weapon, Zhou Ming saw that another strange technological path developed based on "Lingyuan" might bring earth-shaking changes to this plane.
