1081 Your daughter-in-law manages money......

After going to the earth for a "tour", Augustine and Lionroar were obviously very envious of the life of the earthlings, relying on superb science and technology, ordinary people even lived more comfortably than the nobles of the kingdom......

As for the infrastructure mentioned by Xu Zheng, not to mention, the entire human kingdom plus the orc royal court, only the royal capital has bluestone avenues extending in all directions, as for the nobles' fiefdoms, the smoother dirt roads are considered good road conditions, and the street lights at night are as bright as day, the shops that can be seen everywhere, and the hotels can meet the needs of all the people, and the mobile phone is almost a person, and you can contact the people you want to talk to anytime and anywhere, as for the computer network, you can communicate with people thousands of miles away without effort。

It is precisely because he saw it with his own eyes that when Xu Zheng mentioned that he should be the intermediary between the world of miracles and Huaxia and help them obtain the technology of China's infrastructure construction conditionally, Augustine and Lion's Roar were extremely urgent.

"No matter how much money it is, the kingdom is dry!"

After Augustine, who had a lot of money, finished speaking, the lion's roar drooped his ears and muttered: "The royal court has no money......

Xu Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he looked at the lion's roar and pitiful appearance, in fact, both the kingdom and the royal court were extremely wealthy in the eyes of him, a "merchant of the two worlds", the only difference was that the royal court had a stronger ability to produce gold, and gold was also the mainstream trading currency of the two worlds, so at this point, Augustine took a lot of advantage.

Although the gold production of the Orc Royal Court is small, the price of witch doctor herbs, jade and jade, and even high-end animal skins after being brought to the earth far exceeds gold, that is to say, as long as Xu Zheng wants to pull the Orc Royal Court, he can use a variety of resources as a settlement method for the Orc Royal Court to purchase the technology required for the construction of these infrastructures.

So Xu Zheng just gave the lion roar a "don't be impatient" look, and said to Augustine with a smile: "Are you sure how much money has been done? I guess you have also seen the urban roads of China...... Have you ever thought about how much it would cost to build the road to the royal capital if it were extended to the entire kingdom?"

Augustine was stunned when he heard Xu Zheng's words, if the kingdom was really "not short of money", it would have paved the road construction throughout the kingdom a long time ago, but all far-sighted rulers would more or less understand the importance of roads in their territories, and a good road network would play an extremely important role in promoting both commerce and military.

"Uh...... If you just buy technology, you probably won't need a lot of money. ”

After Augustine finished speaking, he seemed to realize the external strength in his tone, and said with a dry laugh: "Since this matter was proposed by Xu Zheng, there must be a whole set of solutions, right?"

"The way is naturally ......"

Xu Zheng thought for a moment and said with a smile: "In fact, the population of the entire kingdom is only more than 20 million, which is not as many as the people of a province in Huaxia...... The biggest problem now is that the territory of the kingdom is too vast, and there are not many densely populated cities except for the royal capital. ”

Thinking back to his previous experience when playing the game "Miracles", Xu Zheng also found that in addition to the crowded royal capital, as well as a few large cities, those villages and aristocratic fiefdoms often have a population of only a few hundred households......

Road construction is only a part of the construction of urban infrastructure, plus other projects such as water supply, power supply, network communication, etc., which is completely loss-making for the human kingdom.

"You mean that the kingdom needs to issue a decree to concentrate those scattered populations in the cities?"

Augustine's reaction was very fast, and he thought of a solution to the problem in an instant, but as soon as the words came out, His Majesty hesitated, wondering in his heart that although it was good for people to live in the city, but those cultivated farmland, and the people who lived by hunting, could not live a good life?

Cities are only livable, but they do not solve the livelihood problems of these people.

"I mean, combined with the environment of the kingdom, it is impossible to take into account those aristocratic fiefdoms and sparsely populated villages and towns, how much energy there is, how big things can be done, and it would be very good for the kingdom to take care of the royal capital and those big cities first!"

After Xu Zheng finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the lion's roar and said, "As for the orcs, in addition to the royal court, only need to build a road from the border village to the royal court......"

"No, two are needed!" Before the lion's roar could speak, Augustine shook his head and said, "There is also the road from the border of the kingdom to the orc court. ”

Xu Zheng thought for a moment and nodded, after all, the trade between the kingdom and the royal court is now much closer than before, and it is reasonable to build a special road.

"In terms of road construction, I went back to communicate with Huaxia in this way, as for water supply, gas supply and communication network, I don't know if the two Majesties have anything to say?"

"We've been on Earth for too short, we've only seen how you use these things, and we don't even know how they work...... Augustine sighed, "So everything will go according to your arrangement!"

"Okay, I'll entrust Huaxia to issue a plan and design drawings, and after you approve these designs, we will discuss the funds you need to pay!"

After Xu Zheng finished speaking, Augustine and Lion's Roar naturally had no opinion, but when Xu Zheng left the hall, Lion's Roar followed Xu Zheng, which meant that he obviously wanted to "communicate" with Xu Zheng alone.

"Worried about money?" Coming to the bedroom, Xu Zheng opened a can of drink for the lion's roar and handed it over, and roared at the lion with a smile.

"Well, listening to what Augustine said just now, even if the kingdom does this, I'm afraid it will be painful, do you think the orc royal court has the capital to build the 'infrastructure' you said?"

The lion's roar looked worried, and he hesitated for a while before saying, "Logically speaking, I shouldn't have come to bargain with you, but seriously...... You also know what the situation is on the other side of the royal court, most of the orcs are just getting enough to eat now, besides...... If your family's money is in your hands, I can still be cheeky to ask you to borrow some, but your family's gold coins are in your daughter-in-law's magic dragon space, and I really don't have the courage to borrow money from your daughter-in-law......"

"Uh, as for being so pitiful?" Xu Zheng looked at the lion and roared with a smile: "Didn't I just say that you don't need to pay for it in the early stage, and after the plan and design drawings are approved, let's discuss what settlement method to use!"
