Chapter 228: Reconstruction

Jiang Long thought as he burned the letter with a fire fold.

Then he came to his desk, took a pen and wrote two letters, and sent them out.

He is not a weak person who allows him to be bullied, and since the alien army wants to come and take his head, then he naturally has to give a strong counterattack.

Find Cheng Ze, why not be there, and Xiao Fan and the others, Jiang Long told the news.

Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan frowned lightly in unison.

Why not, your eyes shine.

It had been a long time since he had led troops to fight, but then he shook his head again, and now he only had a few hundred soldiers under his command and fifty soldiers from the Inspection Division, which was simply not enough.

Even if the alien army comes, he has a thousand good plans, but it is useless.

After some training from him, although Minzhuang and the soldiers of the Inspection Division have some combat effectiveness, they still can't fight hard with the foreign sergeants.

Besides, if the alien army does not come, it will be enough, and if it comes, it will be at least a thousand people.

And it must be all cavalry.

With his subordinates and the combat effectiveness of his subordinates, if he goes out of the city to fight, he is simply looking for death.

Without a certain amount of strength, it is useless to win the battle if you try to schem.

Then, Jiang Long said how to deal with it.

Why don't you hear that it's a pity that he didn't fight this battle.

Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan nodded in agreement.

Xiao Fan reported that the cement plastering of the city wall is almost completed, which is a major event, with the cement outer layer can consolidate the strength of the city wall, which has strong military significance, so not only the masons, but also many people who saw Bangwen coming here to find something to do were also transferred by Xiao Fan to change new clothes for the city wall together.

That's why it's so fast.

Jiang Long nodded with satisfaction.

Although he didn't give such an order, Xiao Fan's improvisation was very correct.

Opening the river and cultivating fields is a big project, not a day or two, a month or two can be completed, and the city wall is plastered with cement, because it has long been expected that there will be an attack by foreign troops, so it is more urgent, and it is naturally right to transfer manpower to strengthen the city wall first.

Then, Xiao Fan said: "The homes of the people in the county are not very dense, and there are many places that can be torn down and rebuilt. ”

This is a little proposal given by Jiang Long for the construction of the county when he talked with the three of them a few days ago.

Coming from another world, he knows the value of the city's crust.

As more and more people come to Lingtong County, it will definitely drive economic prosperity, and the land in the city will soar and rise sharply.

Therefore, it must be used as reasonably as possible.

For now, even the most prosperous main streets in the county can be rectified.

Because the shops on these streets are all ordinary houses, and only a few restaurants are three-storey.

It's a waste.

Jiang Long fired the cement, and then used green bricks or ordinary red bricks, and there was no problem in building a three- or four-story building.

Don't think about not being strong, it will collapse.

Although Lingtong County is poor, there are rich people everywhere, but there are only a few people here.

Because the ground is wide, the homes of these rich people are not close to each other, they are all separated by more than a dozen steps.

The homes of the people at the bottom will be a little more compact, but if there are many people, and there are no flush toilets in every household in this world, they will be dirty and messy.

It also needs to be vigorously rectified.

The river route has been drawn for a long time, and it is ready to start, so you don't have to worry about the number of people, but you are idle and have nothing to do.

Moreover, the alien army is about to attack, so Jiang Long plans to renovate the city during the time when the alien army is coming.

I chatted with Xiao Fan for a long time that night.

Late at night, the black-clothed guards arrived and reported that the money had been sent out, and that someone else would buy food and deliver it as soon as possible.

Jiang Long has more trust in the energy and efficiency of the black guard.

Then he took out a cloth bag from his bosom and spread it out, on which was the table salt he had collected by filtering the brine salt.

He beckoned to the black-clothed guard.

"What is this?" The black-clothed guard came close and looked at Jiang Long suspiciously.

Jiang Long smiled and said, "You can taste it and you'll know." ”

The black-clothed guard didn't hesitate at all, he dipped his index finger and put it on the tip of his tongue to taste, and a pure salty taste immediately came from the tip of his tongue.

Jiang Long is the young master of Jingfu, even if he is allowed to die, the black-clothed guard in front of him will not dare to resist.

So even if it's poison, Jiang Long asks him to eat it, he has to eat it.

"Is this salt?" The blackcoat exclaimed.

Jiang Long nodded.

The black-clothed guard grabbed a handful and looked at it carefully in the palm of his hand, his expression became excited, "Little Master knows how to refine salt more purely?" ”

Jiang Long was stunned for a moment when he heard this, this black-clothed guard actually misunderstood.

However, the salt used by the people of Daqi is indeed too fine, and if you know how to refine, then the price of refined salt will rise several times, or even more than ten times.

Ordinary people can't afford the high-priced salt, but how many rich families are there in the whole Daqi?

The black-clothed guards are all over the Great Qi, which is the biggest advantage.

What can make money, you can open shops all over Daqi.

For example, cement, now it has given the Black Guard organization a taste of sweetness.

"I found salt mines in the savannah, which I extracted from the brine blocks." Jiang Long said as he took out a few pieces of crystal solids from the side.

The black-clothed guard was stunned.

Then his eyes looked at the brine block, which he felt very familiar.

After a while, I just remembered.

How can you actually extract snow-white refined salt from this thing?

The black-clad guard's eyes widened.

This thing has a salty taste, he knows it, and he knows that the wild horses will eat some, but it is more bitter and all kinds of strange tastes, and some people used to want to eat it as salt, but the end result is that they are all poisoned.

The deceased's body was blue and purple.

People think it's a chronic poison.

Because of the familiarity, the black-clothed guard knew this thing, and there was a considerable amount of storage in the prairie.

If it can be developed in its entirety, it will be absolutely astronomical.

There is a shortage of salt in northern Xinjiang, and the price of salt is very high, and even if it is pulled out of northern Xinjiang, it can still be sold because of good quality.

It's not okay for people not to eat salt, so don't worry about no one buying it.

"Little young master......" The black-clothed guard stared at Jiang Long tightly, his voice trembling a little.

"I can tell you how to refine refined salt." Jiang Long picked up the teacup and took a sip, "But you have to promise me a few conditions." ”

"Little master, please speak." The black-clothed guard gathered up his emotions and got down on one knee.

"First, to refine salt, we must first ensure that the people in northern Xinjiang can eat salt."

"Yes!"

"Second, if it is sold in northern Xinjiang, it will be lower than the price of official salt."

"Third, it must not be smuggled and sold to other races."

"Fourth, after three years, I will let Delith reveal the organization behind it."

After hearing this, the black-clothed guard frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Obviously, the Blackguard has some knowledge of the organization behind Delith.

"Fifth, I naturally want to take some benefits."

Jiang Long rubbed his chin and pondered for a while before saying, "Give me 50,000 taels first, and when you are short of money later, you will ask you again." ”

"Yes!"

The black-clad guard responded.

Jiang Long handed the refining steps written in advance to the black-clothed guard.

The blackcoat took it, and left.

Jiang Long lay down to rest.

The black-clothed guard returned to the letter office, watched carefully, and then took out the carrier pigeon and sent the news out.

The next day, Jiang Long did not leave the city again.

Instead, he followed Xiao Fan to look around the city.

A simple drawing was made.

There are more medium-sized households in the eastern city, while most of the wealthy families live in the western city.

Nancheng is almost a gathering place for ordinary people.

The northern city is a place where homeless people and beggars gather.

At noon, Jiang Long and Xiao Fan found a restaurant to eat at random, and Tudu and the others sat next to them.

"Beicheng is the most chaotic and dirty, there are many beggars, and the displaced people are all gathered there, if the reconstruction is started there first, then the beggars and homeless people will have no nest, and they will settle in other places in the county, which is more troublesome, and they can't move for the time being." Xiao Fan made a suggestion.

Jiang Long took a bite of food and nodded.

"Xicheng is full of wealthy families, these people have some relationship with the officials in the county government, the errand service, even if they have no relatives, but they are relatively familiar, if they want to rebuild here, if they have opinions, they will buy people to drag their feet, and it is not appropriate to start first.

I suggest starting with the East and South Castles. Xiao Fan said and looked at Jiang Long.

Jiang Long thought for a while and said, "It's just Mr. Xiao's." ”

Displaced beggars must not be allowed to run around, otherwise there will be problems with law and order in the city.

Occupy the northern city, they have no temporary foothold, and the chaos in the city will be difficult to manage.

And the rich family, these people must have some energy.

Jiang Long is certainly not afraid, but if these people secretly use some means to make trouble from them, it will be more troublesome and delay things.

There are still many things to do, and Jiang Long doesn't want to waste time on them.

So I agreed to Xiao Fan's proposal.

It is said to be rebuilt, but in fact, there are many empty areas in the city, and now many people come to dig the river, and they can't sleep in the inn at all.

But the innkeeper is very happy these days.

With so many guests staying at the hotel, plus a la carte meals, business is very hot.

Jiang Long and Xiao Fan came to Dongcheng again, inspected back and forth, measured the area according to the topography, and discussed the scale and direction of the house.

You can't just build houses.

Otherwise, when Lingtong County develops, there will be a house to live in and no street to visit.

And without the promotion of commerce, the economy cannot prosper.

Therefore, it is necessary to leave the street and build shops on the side of the street.

Jiang Long and Xiao Fan stayed here for an afternoon, and finally drew a sketch.

Then let the soap class officials go door-to-door to inform that the county government wants to rebuild Dongcheng, hoping that the people can actively cooperate.

Although the people who live here can eat their stomachs, they are not rich.

There is no backstage behind him, so he doesn't dare to work against the county government.

But one by one, they are naturally unhappy.

The house is well lived, but the house has to be demolished and rebuilt.

However, the conditions given by the county government were relatively generous, and they were not forcibly requisitioned for nothing, so there was no major incident.

The conditions given, first, are that before the new house is built, the accommodation fee will be subsidized.

Second, after the new house is built, the people can choose a larger house at will without having to make up the difference.

Third, priority can be found to do in the work team.

Now that the renovation plan has been decided, the construction will start immediately the next day.
