It takes a lot of money to buy the production lines of the arsenal and various firearms.

When Jia Min came. Although some money and goods were brought, it was not enough to pay for firearms.

In order to carve out the situation and gain a foothold here, it is also necessary to maintain a luxurious lifestyle of high society in order to gain the recognition of the locals for their strength.

Just to maintain these daily routines, more than 100 people need a lot of expenses.

According to Jia Min's original plan, he was going to carry out a Ponzi scheme in Paris, make a lot of money, and after buying a firearm, he would fly away and run away.

With the hot sales of wine-making equipment, Jia Min changed his mind.

He decided to do serious business.

In this way, firstly, the risk is smaller, and secondly, it can leave a way back, and in the future, it can also come to Paris and even Europe. Even if you don't come in person, your subordinates can come.

For the sake of the long-term interests of the North Sea Country, it is better not to leave a bad record in Paris.

In the future, it will be a place worth visiting for firearms and other businesses.

With the smooth progress of the tobacco project, Jia Min's cash flow has become more sufficient.

There are also many merchants here who are interested in carrying out trade between the East and the West.

Now that Jia Min's funding problem has been solved, there is no need to carry out a Ponzi scheme at all.

A month later, the Luofu Arsenal produced 90 machine guns, and according to the original agreement, Jia Minti took 45 of them, along with 30 field guns, 12,000 rifles and a large number of bullets, loaded them on the ship and set off for Beihai.

Jiao/Li, Dai Zhi, Lameihua, Wei Ruoshui, etc., led the soldiers of the Fu Corps who practiced in the Luofu Factory, a total of more than 50 people, accompanied the ship.

These soldiers not only returned to the North Sea, but also served as guards along the way.

Beihai, Pingyuan City.

Wei Song, the head of the Beihai Wei family, Toke, the head of the Dakor tribe of the White Tatars, and Bogda, the head of the Simer tribe, were strolling through Pingyuan New Town.

This is the piece of land near Lake Figar that Jia Min bought from them.

Now, a large number of houses have appeared here. However, from a distance, it looks more like a large construction site.

From time to time, you can see a group of craftsmen repairing houses.

"I haven't been here for a few days, and it's changed again."

Wei Song not only sighed.

"yes, almost every day. If you don't come for ten days and a half months, you become unrecognizable. ”

Traucer saw it turn from an empty lot into the small town it is today.

"If this continues, in another half a year, this new city will surpass our old city. Jia Guerrilla does things, it's really a big deal. ”

Bogda's tone was a little emotional, but even more proud. Because now he also has a shop here and organizes a caravan.

"Bogda, you're pretty fast, the caravan is about to leave."

Teucer seemed envious.

"Teucer, are you laughing at me, or are you envying me? It's actually me who should be envious. Where do I have you to start quickly, your caravan has arrived in Bukui now, right? You think I don't know? ”

"And Master Wei, your caravan has just returned from Fort Sergei, right? As far as I know, this trip is not a lot of money. ”

"Whereever, it's just a little money. Isn't it all about road repair? ”

The road repair that Wei Song said began after Feng Ziying arrived in Pingyuan City with people.

Building roads is a big plan.

Starting from the border of Dade, it passed through the city of Pingyuan, and continued westward, extending to the western frontier of the North Sea, until it reached Fort Sergei, the border of Rus'.

There must be several conditions for building a road.

One is sufficient labor, the second is the corresponding tools, and the third is a certain amount of money.

According to the plan set by Jia Min at the beginning, the road construction plan is mainly composed of three parts.

The first is to organize a perennial road construction team of about 100 people. Starting from Pingyuan City, it extends to the east to the Dade border and west to the Rus' border.

However, due to the vast area, although the roads are built all year round, the ones that can be repaired are still very limited.

The second method is to transfer labor.

Every adult man who comes to Beihai has to take two days out of labor every month to build roads.

After consultation, Wei Song, Trafigura, and Bogda also sent people to participate in the road construction.

This part of the people, led by Feng Zijing, took turns to work. Tools and vehicles are provided, and meals are provided every day, but wages are not paid.

The third method is to have a village along the way to undertake a part of the road construction task.

According to the plan, hundreds of villages will be scattered along the thousands of miles of arterial roads that cross the North Sea.

These villages are almost all made up of families.

A big family, with strength, can build a city. If the strength is poor, you can build a town, and if you are worse, you can build a village.

No matter how bad the strength is, you can also build a village with several families.

Every town or village has to undertake the construction of a section of road.

The village is three miles to the left and right, and the town is five miles to the left and right. The city is ten miles to the left and right.

If it cannot be connected in the middle, it will be built by Pingyuan New Town.

This road construction plan is very effective, and although only a small part of the road has been built, the road is being extended little by little every day.

Wei Song and the others walked all the way, watching all the way.

"The hundreds of plots over there belong to the Jia guerrillas, right?"

"Yes, Jia Zhi is currently presiding over the repair there, and it is said that it was built according to the style of Rongguo Mansion and Ning Guo Mansion. Together, there are about 100 acres of the two mansions, which is really big enough. ”

"That's not too big? It is said that the Rongguo Mansion and the Ningguo Mansion in the imperial capital are bigger than this. ”

"Jiafu is rich and wealthy."

"It is said that this is not the money paid by Jiafu, but the money paid by Jia Guerrilla and his female dependents."

"The female dependents of Jia guerrilla are all heroines and heroines."

A few people were walking, and a group of people came in front of them, a total of five people, wearing the uniforms of the original government corps, carrying long guns, bows and arrows, sabers and crossbow arrows at their waists.

This is a patrol team in the new city every day, responsible for handling various public security incidents and civil disputes, and maintaining order in the new city.

When he saw Wei Song and the three of them, he opened a greeting and continued to patrol.

"Two, don't we have a patrol in the old city, I think this patrol is good. Every day on the road, those thieves are afraid. ”

Wei Song couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Well, in my opinion, it's not necessary, wait a while to see Feng Ziying, tell him, and ask his patrol team to go around the old city every day, isn't it? It also saves us from paying for it. ”

"In the end, Traucer is resourceful, I think this plan is feasible, and I'll talk to Feng Ziying in a while."

Bogda also quickly made a small calculation and thought of going with Teucer.

"Hey, that carpenter shop is not small, go over and have a look?"

Wei Song said, and took the lead in turning the horse over.

"Go and see, let's go to the Feng family's brick kiln to have a look."

Wei Song came to the carpenter's shop, and Sun Yuanzheng greeted him.

"Ouch, Master Wei, rare guest, please inside."

"No need, pass by here, stop by and have a look. This carpenter and apprentice seems to be more and more, and there are more people? ”

"Plus, there are more than 20 people from my hometown a few days ago, and there is too much work to do."

A large courtyard was full of logs, and more than a dozen men were sawing through the wood in pairs.

In the courtyard, there is a pile on the left, consisting of a pile of ground, piled with wooden planks, house trusses, beams, purlins, doors and windows, etc.

"Brother Expedition, it seems that your family's business is really good."

"Now that construction is going on everywhere, there's naturally more work. Today, there are four carpenter workshops, and all of them are like me. ”

"How's your shipyard going, can a new ship be launched today?"

"Master Wei, you can go to watch the ceremony with confidence, it was all ready a few days ago."

"Okay, I'll go."

"Wait, I'll go over with the Wei family master. It's a good day to be launched, and you can't miss it. ”

Wei Song and Sun Yuanzheng rode for about ten minutes before arriving at the dock.

I saw a big ship, already parked in the dock, with red cloth and red flowers hanging on the bow. A group of people were watching there, pointing and pointing.

I met Feng Ziying, Yang Lin, Wei Ruolan, Feng Zijing, Chen Yeqing, Lin Dajiang and others.

These people are the leaders of Pingyuan New Town.

After saying hello, Wei Song told Feng Ziying about asking the patrol team to patrol the old city. I thought Feng Ziying would hesitate, but I didn't expect that she would agree.

"Chief of Staff Feng, you're busy, I'll go take a look at the ship."

Wei Song went to see the boat, and Yang Lin came to Feng Ziying.

"Chief of Staff Feng, why did you agree so readily to patrol the old city?"

"I was about to talk to them about it, and they came to the door themselves. Let's patrol there in the future, with Yang Dianshi's cleverness, can't we see my intentions? ”

"Hehe, understood, in the future, the old city will gradually be under our jurisdiction, and it won't be long before we will become the power center of Pingyuan City."

"Yang Dianshi really has eyesight, this day won't be too long, and as soon as Chief Min comes back, it will be a matter of course."

"It is estimated that they have also seen the situation clearly, now there are more than 3,000 people in our Laofu Corps here, and most of them are carrying firearms, who else is our opponent?"

"In the past two years, more than 10,000 new people have come to Pingyuan City, all of whom are coming to us, and now, we have an advantage in terms of population, and there is a steady stream of new people coming here, and in the future, we will become the masters here."

"After all, Chief Min has a vision. Soon after, it would become another Bukui, even more prosperous than Bukui. ”

Feng Ziying and Yang Lin were talking, when they saw a caravan coming.

There are a lot of caravans at the moment, and there are caravans arriving almost every day. The two have long been accustomed to it.

However, this caravan was different because there were three acquaintances inside.

They are Bu Kui's old acquaintances, it is Cong Xiucai who runs a school in Bu Kui, Guo Qisheng from Zhili, and another one, Hua Yusheng, a rogue who escaped from Bu Kui's place.

Feng Ziying and Yang Lin respected Cong Xiucai very much, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Mr. Cong, how did you get here?"

"Huaiyuan is here, you are here, the government corps is here, Bu Kui's old acquaintances are here, can I not come? I have feelings for these people, and from now on, I will settle down here. ”

"Settle here?"

"This is where my love is, and where my love is strong, it is home."
