readx; The whole of Tibet is relatively backward, and the towns near the mountains are naturally very backward, there are very few shops selling grain and cloth, and the language is not understood, so it is really troublesome to knock on doors to buy them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Wei Hong simply took out the waist card of Saimaga, found the local county order, and asked the county order to gather all the merchants in the town and hold a purchasing meeting......

There are not many businesses in the town, and the mess all adds up, and there are only about fifty people. These people got together, exchanged heads, and whispered in a language that Wei Hong couldn't understand. When the people came, Wei Hong asked the county magistrate to act as a translator for him and tell all the merchants his intentions. There are three main meanings: first, in the towns, all the grain sold by the merchants is purchased at a price ten times higher than the market price, and all of them are transported to the mountain pass in one place; Second, consumables such as cloth and iron were also purchased at a price higher than the market price and transported to the mountain pass. Finally, whether in the town or town, whether it is in the business of buying and selling cattle and sheep, or ordinary peasant households are willing to sell, as long as it is a live animal, cattle, sheep, horses, chickens, ducks, and other domestic animals, they will be purchased together with the first two points. All the things, within three days, were transported to the mountain pass, and then Wei Hong handed over the money to the prefectural order, and let the prefectural order distribute it to everyone.

In order to avoid the county order from being deducted, Wei Hong greeted the county order in advance: "This business is not done once or twice, I can grow grain by myself, and I can manage the cloth by myself, but I can't get things like iron and spices by myself, and I will definitely have to rely on your towns for supply in the future." So your hard-earned money will definitely be indispensable to you, but if you deduct it from it, provoke the local merchants to be dissatisfied, and cut off business with me, then your benefits will come to an end. After that, Wei Hong took out two thumb-sized gold bumps from his baggage, stuffed them into the hands of the county magistrate, and instructed: "Don't confuse your benefits with the merchants' benefits!" ”

The county magistrate naturally gladly accepted Wei Hong's proposal. Because the economy of Tibet is very backward, being a county commander can't make much benefit, and Wei Hong, the god of wealth who appeared out of thin air, undoubtedly stimulated the nerves of the county order, so that the county order was very diligent, and personally urged the merchants to prepare what Wei Hong wanted. After three days, everything was transported to the mountain pass on time.

Wei Hong counted 3,000 quintals of various types of grain, 500 horses of various types of cloth, and 2,000 catties of metal; Fifty oxen, two hundred sheep, sixty horses, and two thousand chickens and ducks. Apart from these main things, the number of seeds of each type of plant is unknown. These things are only up to Wei Hong and the three of them if they want to transport them back to the canyon, and they are afraid that they will have to be transported until next year. But Wei Hong didn't want outsiders to know the location of the canyon, so he sent Zhou Dali back to call all the five hundred slaves and transport all these things back to the canyon in two parts.

Now that the food problem is solved, we need to concentrate on building infrastructure. Since I don't know how long I want to live here, let's plan according to the long-term plan. There are two things to worry about living in a canyon, the first is landslides, and the second is heavy rain and waterlogging, so it is essential to strengthen the mountain and drainage facilities.

After all the houses needed to live were repaired, Wei Hong took everyone to reinforce the rock walls on both sides of the canyon. There are many ways to reinforce a rock wall, one is to build a frame with timber for reinforcement, and the other is to build a wall on top of the rock wall. After some consideration, Wei Hong chose the latter, which was safer despite the huge project. If there is no cement, use rammed earth walls. After three days of repairs, less than one percent of the work was progressing. Because the project was so large, Wei Hong divided the men into two groups, with the slaves continuing to strengthen the rock wall while the craftsmen set about building drainage facilities.

Because Wei Hong considered this problem from the beginning, before building the house, he piled up a very high foundation with stones and soil, and as long as it was not the kind of catastrophic flood that occurs once in a thousand years, the water would not be able to flood the house. However, if you live here, you must farm and livestock, and if you can't flood your house, it doesn't mean that you can't flood your farmland and livestock. As a result, drainage facilities are also mainly built for farmland and livestock.

Wei Hong planned an area for farming, as well as an area for animal husbandry. The reason why the canyon is waterlogged is that the canyon is much lower than the mountain, and the rainwater flows into the canyon along various channels. The canyon is located on the mountain, which is higher than the horizon, so it is not difficult to build a drainage system, only need to dig holes or open canals to divert water from the canyon to the outside of the canyon.

Isn't there still a lot of unused wood in the canyon? The material used for the drainage system is made of wood. Although the wood is not durable, it will be soaked and rotted over time. But considering that the drainage system only works when it rains, and the wood is not exposed to water for a long time, the time of use will be greatly extended.

Making pipes out of wood is a breeze for craftsmen. Since the farmland and pastoral areas selected by Weihong are relatively high, there is no need for a pumping engine, and according to gravity, the water will flow down the pipes, which become the entire part of the drainage system.

In addition, Wei Hong also sent people to build reservoirs in several relatively low-lying places in the canyon, built the reservoir parallel to the ground, and then erected several pipes on the edge of the reservoir. In this way, when the accumulated rainwater in the reservoir reaches saturation, the excess water is drained out of the canyon by the pipes. The water in the reservoir can play many roles such as regular watering and drinking water for livestock.

The infrastructure in the canyon is almost finished, and then the gateway to the valley mouth is built. Whether it is a short-term shelter for Wei Hong or a long-term residence, defense is the first priority, whether it is to defend against soldiers or bandits, it is especially important.

Wei Hong asked the slaves, who had been busy reinforcing the rock wall, to temporarily stop their work and go to Taniguchi to participate in the construction of defenses. First, the wall was built, and the valley mouth was narrowed again with thick walls. Since the wall was not simply sheltered from the wind and rain, but was used to defend against foreign enemies, it was necessary to improve it. According to Wei Hong's instructions, the wall was built five zhang high, which was higher than the palace wall of the Tang Palace. It is also one zhang thick, and it is solid, the outermost layer is made of rammed earth, the middle is made of boulders, and the rearmost is finished with wood. After the construction is completed, it will be even stronger than the natural rock wall, and there will be no bombs, so you can't break through! In addition, the appearance is very smooth and vertical, so it is impossible to climb. (To be continued.) )
