Chapter Seventy-Six: Going South to Build a Road

"What I hate the most is this kind of beastly thing!" Yu Sha stepped forward and stepped on the place where the squire was holding, causing the squire to scream. "You're lucky today, I didn't plan to kill anyone, find his whole family for me within three days, and send it here honestly, otherwise, aren't you the Wu family in the south of the city?"

The squire looked at Yusha in horror and nodded.

"I don't care where you put your face, but if I don't see this man's whole family within three days, including the daughter and son you sold, you're dead. Didn't you say we were thieves? We're so talkative on weekdays that it makes you feel like we're not thieves anymore, so I don't mind killing your whole family. ”

The gentlemen and servants on the side were all trembling with fright, and even Liu Liting was discolored. No one thought that these people would dare to openly fire and injure the gentry in public, the ability of the world's scholars and gentry in the Great Wu Dynasty is quite powerful, so strong that they don't need to pay taxes, and they can even compete with the magistrates. If they are dissatisfied with the county officials, they can go to the higher level of the governor and the same state to visit, and in the end, when they encounter the performance appraisal once every three years, the county will inevitably be tossed again. Moreover, there are many scholars from these gentlemen's families, and whenever these officials go to a place, they must first inquire about the relatives and friends of the local gentry who are senior officials in the court, so as not to accidentally offend Shangguan and be put in small shoes, but they must be timid in dealing with things when they encounter them. This kind of atmosphere naturally raises this group of gentry one by one, and often competes with the local government for their own interests.

But this sense of superiority suddenly disappeared in front of Yu Sha's pistol, this group of people is a thief! That's not even the military households of the imperial court, more than 2,000 villagers are the same, if they provoke them, they will be slaughtered and there is no place to reason.

A few gentlemen who ran to tie up people without a deed hurriedly turned around and wanted to run, but were pushed back by the militia who was already in place next to them. Even the other gentlemen who had brought the deed of life were trembling at this time, for fear of annoying Yu Sha, who was covered with blood marks in front of him, and was hugged by his head.

"This ......" A squire hurriedly came over and arched his hand at Yu Sha, but found that he didn't remember Yu Sha's position, so he had to say: "Master, I just want to chase down the fugitive slaves this time, and I don't mean to come here to demonstrate. Besides, we don't do this to domestic slaves on weekdays. As he spoke, he hurriedly pointed to the squire surnamed Wu who was holding his leg on the ground, and hurriedly made a stand with Yu Sha.

Yusha nodded at him, removed his foot from the squire's wound, slipped the pistol back into the holster, and nodded at the squire. "I understand your feelings, but now that these people have come to the place of my Senate, they are under the protection of our Senate, if you are allowed to arrest them again, then where is the prestige of our Senate?"

Although the squires didn't know what the Senate was, it was estimated that these squires were talking about their pirate gang, and they nodded like chickens pecking rice. Although everyone felt sorry for not being able to recover the fugitive slaves, no one dared to say much in front of the fierce black man at this time, and what people said was what it was.

At this time, Yu Sha looked at the few deeds in his hand, and Xiao Jing also came over, at this time, these squires were already shocked by that shot, and they didn't need him to cover on the side anymore. The two gathered on the side to discuss for a while, and finally Xiao Jing nodded again and again and stood aside.

"I calculated, the total amount of thirty taels of body sale money on these eight body deeds, then I paid the same price to buy your fugitive slaves." As he spoke, he asked a few cadres on the side to take out money bags and gave silver coins at the price of the deed. These gentry were unhappy in their hearts, these fugitive slaves were all bought at the lowest price at that time, and some were bought cheaply just in time for the destruction of their families or some natural disaster, and it was difficult to find slaves at the same price. But at this time, people are fierce and vicious, and they are still in other people's land, and besides, they are still pirates, how can they afford to provoke them?

………………

With the completion of the tracks, coal mining and the establishment of a coal washing plant are already on the agenda. Because the coal mine that was discovered was relatively shallow, it was basically mined directly by digging up about three meters of overburden on the surface, so the coal mine itself was not too much of a problem. Moreover, there are two kinds of people who work in the coal mines, one is the reformers of the labor camp, and the other is the naturalized miners who have coal mine subsidies. The former only received one bamboo skewer and ten bamboo skewers for every fifty kilograms carried according to the amount of labor. If these reformers are lazy, they will end up eating nothing, and the more passive they are, the easier it is to starve to death. Naturalized miners also have a daily work ration, and they cannot receive coal mine subsidies if they do not complete their work rations. Although eating is not as stretched as a reformer, you have to work hard to make a good living.

The head of the mining department planned to directly wash the coal with water, but was opposed by a group of environmental veterans, the pollution of the coal washing method is too great, and now it is all manual coal mining, and the quality of the raw coal is basically good, as long as the ash, sulfur, water, phosphorus and a small amount of minerals are removed. However, Li Jin of the metallurgical group pointed out that these impurities are very unfavorable for users who use coal as the combustion medium, and the ash content of coking coal will be converted into coke, and the coke consumption will increase by 2~3%, the flux consumption will increase by 2~2.5%, and the productivity of blast furnace ironmaking will be reduced by 2~3% for every 1% increase in coke ash or 0.1% increase in sulfur content. The increased moisture content of coking coal will prolong the coking time and reduce the productivity of the coke oven. The increase in ash and moisture content of fuel coal will reduce thermal efficiency and pollute the environment. In addition, the high sulfur content in fuel coal will seriously corrode boilers and pipelines, and pollute the atmosphere, forming acid rain, which is seriously harmful. Therefore, even if these coals are mined by hand and have undergone the initial artificial beneficiation, these coals must be washed and processed before they can be put into use, and the metallurgical equipment used by the group at this time is brought from the old time and space, if it is damaged because of the quality of the coal, even if the environment is good, it will also face the bottleneck of steel. Eventually, the plan for the coal washing plant was approved, but it was required to be located at the downstream estuary of the river to the north.

At the same time as the coal mine was mined, the iron ore was also mined, and the area was all plains, and the iron ore was buried very shallowly, and the exploration team even found a mining area that could be mined without stripping the shallow soil. The track was then laid to the mine and construction work began.

However, at this time, Xie Mingfang's construction team was already busy, and the road she proposed at the beginning of the overhaul road has achieved fruitful results, and now the roads from Dongfang Port to Yancun, Dongfang Port to Coal Mine, and Dongfang Port to An Yuncheng are being rolled out almost at the same time. She couldn't manage it at all, and her engineering team, whether it was construction personnel or management personnel, was overstretched, so at this time of exhaustion, another new star appeared on the scene - Baobao.

This veteran surnamed Bao was a civil servant in the urban planning bureau of a large city in the old time and space, he studied industrial and civil construction in college, and served as the counterpart municipal planner in the planning bureau. But here's the problem, he doesn't have a backstage, and his family can give him too little help. Every day, I work more than cattle in the planning bureau, but I get less salary than anyone else, and after five or six years, the leaders above have changed one after another, and my colleagues who have a background have now become their direct leaders, but they stay in their original positions like leek roots without any change. Colleagues look at themselves more and more squint, return home wife white eyes more and more, even the old man is more and more unkind to himself, and even the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner before the crossing openly slapped the table to let him get out, he threw away this "iron rice bowl" in a fit of anger, and followed the small piece to participate in the crossing. His idea is very simple, in the old time and space, interpersonal relationships have long been intertwined, and there are countless people waiting in line for each post. In the new time and space, there are definitely not many people who specialize in urban planning and the like, and there are definitely not many people who are reliable in their knowledge and can work in battle, and they will definitely not be a soy sauce crowd in the future. He also has a dream to build the SimCity of his dreams.

The name of this comrade Bao Bao is a bit strange, according to him, his father directly took such a powerful name in order to prevent too many people from having the same name and surname as him. And under the influence of his family, he usually likes to read Taoist books such as the Tao Te Ching, and is called the Taoist chief by a group of familiar elders, but he doesn't care, and even buys a whole set of Taoist clothes online before coming to the new world. When I'm bored, I dress and play in the dormitory, which is called calm.

At this time, Bao Daochang's task was to take charge of the road from Dongfang Port to Champa Port from the south. Because the ships of this era were not convenient, and were greatly affected by the wind direction and ocean currents, they had to walk faster, and the sea route was nothing more than a large carrying capacity. The road passes by the brickyard and goes straight to the river. With the experience of repairing the bridge for the first time, the brick factory here has prepared the construction materials needed to build the bridge in advance, and is waiting to start construction. Bao Daochang was not responsible for road repair in the old time and space, but now he has road repair tutorials in hand, and there are massive materials in the big library and wireless network that can consult the data at any time, and he can even make video calls within ten kilometers of the transmitting base station, so he started the construction of the southbound Zhanchenggang Highway while studying and constructing.
