Shang Jinxiu solved the problem for Anton Hua, and Anton Hua generously allowed the people below to build roads and dig ditches, because this method was used for the first time, many people were not at ease, and Anton Hua decided to test it in Jiaozhou City now.

Jiaozhou City is the largest city in Jiaozhou, and almost the entire city is paved with stone slabs, but it is only almost. The inner city was all where the powerful lived, and the conditions were naturally much better, and the roads were paved with smooth stone slabs, open and flat. However, in the slums of the outer city, the roads are still dirt roads, and the surrounding houses are very small and dilapidated, and they are inhabited by poor families who are in danger.

Anton Hua was just about to set up a good hall, so he deliberately picked out a relatively large vacant land in the outer city. The vacant land is full of dilapidated old houses, crowded with more than a dozen families. Anton Hua bought their house with the money, and he was ready to find someone, and these houses were pushed down and built into a good hall.

It just so happened that the roads here were all dirt roads, so Anton Hua decided to use this place as a pilot to repair the roads.

To this end, Shang Jinxiu deliberately opened a new shop, in modern parlance, a construction company. She and An Donghua want to develop Jiaozhou, so that the people can live a good life, and in the future, building roads, bridges and even houses is absolutely indispensable.

Anton Hua didn't want Shang Jinxiu to be too tired in his heart, but she didn't need to go out to do it herself, just tell her to take care of things, he didn't care, and with Shang Jinxiu's help, he was more at ease. After all, although he is now said to be in charge of Jiaozhou, there are countless officials large and small in Jiaozhou, and many people have problems of one kind or another. These people are now openly surrendering. But what they think in their hearts, only they know.

Antonhua knows. Many people must be in disobedience, but there are so many people. It's not practical to replace them all at once, you have to take your time. Building roads and houses are very important things, Anton Hua doesn't want the silver to be filled by the leeches below, if there is a problem with the project, the road will be gone, if the house collapses, but it will kill people!

This matter is left to Shang Jinxiu to do, and Anton Hua is very relieved. With the ability of Shang Jinxiu. There is no need to worry about the people below enriching their pockets.

It just so happened that there was a group of people under Shang Jinxiu who didn't have a place to go, and these people were none other than those dead soldiers of the Zheng family. After Shang Jinxiu rescued them, he temporarily placed them in the grange. However, these people's kung fu is not bad, and it is too condescending to let them farm.

And although Shang Jinxiu erased the spiritual hint of 'diehard' in their knowledge of the sea, these people have also been cultivated into wood, accustomed to listening to orders, and not very good at using their own brains. Let them farm, not only condescending, but also not suitable at all. They don't know how to plant the crops well, if no one gives them orders. They simply don't know how to be flexible.

However, it is just right that such a person is responsible for building roads and houses, and this kind of thing does not need to use too many brains. gave them orders, and there was no need to worry about them stealing and playing shoddy. They're also unusually brainless. They will not listen to slander and be bought.

So Shang Jinxiu recruited these people back. I found an empty house for them to live in, and I was in charge of repairing the road first. Shang Jinxiu has a lot of shops in his hands and a lot of people, so the materials are quickly prepared. Shang Jinxiu picked a sunny day and asked his subordinates to start construction.

Building a road is actually quite simple, isolate the place to be paved with wooden boards, then pour the mixed concrete into it, scrape it into a flat surface with a board, and wait for the concrete to dry. Of course, this is only the easiest way to do it. Shang Jinxiu didn't have asphalt in his hands, so he didn't toss any asphalt anymore. The road built in this way may only be regarded as a tofu scum project in the future, but there is no large truck with a load of several tons and more than ten tons, and the service life of the road built in this way is still relatively long.

On the day of the road construction, Andonghua was curious, and deliberately wore civilian clothes, and went to see it in person with Shang Jinxiu. The concrete dries very quickly, and Shang Jinxiu uses the best lime, so there is no need to worry about the quality of the road being built. The road was built very quickly, and the craftsmen who built the road were all those dead soldiers of the Zheng family, who had great kung fu strength, could mix the concrete very evenly, and the work was quite quick, and it only took half a day for them to finish the entire road.

The road built this time is actually not long, only 500 meters in appearance, and after going out, it is a small street, where the stone slabs have been paved, and there is no need to toss anymore.

The weather was nice on this day, so by the time the entire road was finished, half of the road surface had already dried. All the people who watched it felt strange, they had never seen such a simple road, they had never seen it, they didn't expect it to be not only convenient, but also so fast, and it seemed that it could already be used, which was also amazing!

So, some people couldn't help but ask, can you go up and take a walk? Antonhua almost agreed when he was excited, and even wanted to go for the first time. Shang Jinxiu hurriedly stopped him: "I can't go up now, it's not dry inside, it will have to be dried for at least three days." ”

Shang Jinxiu said very conservatively, after all, she didn't know much about this matter, and it was the first time she tried it, what if it hadn't dried up inside and it was broken?

When An Donghua heard this, he had to suppress the excitement in his heart, and personally ordered that the city guards be sent to guard the road, and no one was allowed to step on it for three days, so as not to trample on the road.

The three days passed very quickly, and in these three days, not only the people of Jiaozhou City were paying attention to this road, but some foreign merchants couldn't help but have some expectations. They thought, if it can be so easy to build roads in the future, will it be possible to repair official roads? Wouldn't it be much easier for them to run businesses from south to north?

Although they also knew that they were too whimsical, they suddenly saw a glimmer of hope at this time, and they were unwilling to give up.

In the past three days, many people have deliberately run over, just to take a look. Looking at the smooth road, they couldn't help but want to go up and take a walk.

Finally, the morning sun rose on the fourth day, and on this day, many people were guarding the intersection, waiting to go up and walk after the ban was lifted. An Donghua was still in the palace when he heard the news, and when he heard that many people were there, he thought about it and decided to take Shang Jinxiu with him.

Shang Jinxiu didn't really want to join in the excitement, she was used to this kind of road in later generations. But looking at Anton Hua's expectant face, she couldn't bear to refuse.

When the two of them drove to the intersection in a car, the number of people waiting was more than twice as large, and the crowd was quite lively, like a festival.

Because Andonghua issued a notice to establish good halls and academies in various parts of Jiaozhou, the people of Jiaozhou now respect him very much, and when they saw his car from afar, they automatically separated and stood at a safe distance, without the city guards asking for it. But for the sake of safety, the city guards still stood in front of these people.

Antonhua didn't want to alarm the people, so he stopped the carriage from a distance, and then pulled Shang Jinxiu out of the carriage and walked with her to the intersection. When the people saw them, they knelt down excitedly, and the mountain shouted "Chitose". An Donghua waved his hand to signal them all to get up, and then he took Shang Jinxiu's hand and took the first step.

Probably because he was nervous, his feet were very light when he fell, and he barely used force, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally crush the ground. Shang Jinxiu couldn't help but laugh when he looked nervous, leaned closer and whispered, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

An Donghua glanced at him, and suddenly felt that he was embarrassed just now, he looked at the people around him quietly, and saw that there was no difference in their faces, so he should not have noticed it. So he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, tightened the strength of his hand, and quickened his steps to move forward. This walk, he also noticed that the road surface was actually very strong, and it was not much different from the ordinary stone pavement when he walked up, and it was even smoother.

Anton Hua has the bottom in his heart, and at the same time, he also realizes that once such a simple and effective way spreads, it will be much more convenient to build roads in the future! No more labor.

A section of the road was not long, and soon the two walked back and forth, Andonghua stood at the intersection, looked at the obviously excited people, and said loudly: "From now on, the ban will be lifted here, and in addition, dirt roads in other places will be built one after another." And from today, it will be built into a good church. In the future, those who have nowhere else to go can temporarily live in the temple. ”

Hearing this, the onlookers couldn't help cheering, although they had known about it for a long time, but the notice posted by the government was different from what the king of Jiaozhou said himself! In the past, when the notice came out, many of them still doubted whether it was a lie, but now that Anton Hua said it himself, they were completely relieved.

Shang Jinxiu saw that they were excited, so he said: "It takes a lot of manpower to build a good hall, and there will be a recruitment notice posted later, and those who are willing can sign up at that time, and the salary will be settled on a daily basis." ”

As soon as her voice fell, many people cheered. Many people here live in slums, and their families don't have much money, but now there is a place to work, and they are still paid by the day, even if the salary is small, it is considered to be an income.

Shang Jinxiu and An Donghua didn't stay at the intersection for too long, in fact, they still have a lot of things to deal with, and now that the feasibility of cement road repair has been verified, Anton Hua has to go back and discuss the road repair with the people below, and similarly, Shang Jinxiu also has to start preparing for the next project.

First of all, the good hall must be repaired, of course, it does not need to be repaired beautifully, the key is that the place is large, strong, and can live more people. (To be continued......)
