Oh ho ho!

Three days later, the Galen ship returned to the port of Manhattan:

Now Zhao Hongyu no longer lives on Manhattan Island.

The city of Manhattan, built on the former camp of Mohican, has become a daily place for the surrounding tribes.

Countless Indians, who traveled from afar for days every day, brought their hunt or pelts to the city of Chūn, Manhattan, to sell, and then used silver coins to buy the goods they needed.

Now the Indians in this area have slowly become accustomed to the use of silver coins as a currency.

The economic system of the city of Manhattan is also slowly building and growing.

Indians think the city of Manhattan is a good place, clean, lively, and there are so many people every time they come. And their prey is not to be sold at all, as long as they come here, they can sell it.

At the same time, the price of grain, or mustard and other commodities in Manhattan was much more reasonable than that of the British in Virginia.

Therefore, more and more Indians are willing to come to Manhattan to do business.

Unlike Yaksari City, the trade here in Manhattan is all about wild animals, or furs, and the work that comes to work.

And the city of Yaksari has a very 'old' profession in addition to these.

The city of Manhattan has straight streets and the pavement is poured with cement, which makes the roads very smooth.

It's just that there are no blacksmiths in Manhattan now, and there is no way to build iron rollers, otherwise there will definitely be a lot of horse-drawn carriages in Manhattan.

But it doesn't matter, Zhao Hongyu said it in public on Yaksari's side. You need people on your side.

So, it won't take much time to think about it. There are a lot of people in Yaksari who come to Manhattan to make a living.

Two 24-pounder guns were placed on either side of the high gates of Manhattan.

Since the output of a month is only 6, Zhao Hongyu does not have many such artillery pieces at hand.

On the walls on both sides above each gate, it is good to put two gates on the ground for the time being.

At the city gate, the guards dressed in the uniforms of the party lined up and watched everyone who came in and out.

For the time being, the city of Manhattan is an Indian, except for the genetic people, so the law and order cases that often occur in Yaksari City have not appeared for the time being.

However, the British came here after rì. It's hard to say.

After stepping off the Galen boat, Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan exchanged one piece while walking on this issue.

"Chief, it's not just this question, we also have to think about the gold mine." , Wang Shan worries more than Zhao Hongyu worries, and the gold mine is a place that has to be considered and paid attention to.

Although Zhao Hongyu built a fortress at the gold mine, that fortress had only 100 guards.

This is not enough to defend the gold mines.

Know the way. The gold belt was so big that 100 people couldn't take care of it.

When the British come, they will definitely know about the gold mines.

When the time comes, people will die for money, birds will die for food, and they will not be able to do anything to make a fortune.

It's not impossible to steal gold mines.

So, this point is worth and must be considered.

"Urban policing is easy to solve. Find someone from the police station or the public security management team in the city, but all those who affect public order will be arrested and severely punished, so that they can be controlled. Wang Shan proposed an idea to Zhao Hongyu.

"You can patrol when you don't have anything to do, and you can work 24 hours a day, 8 hours a day. Indians and genetic people are mixed together, what do you say? ”

Hear the words. Zhao Hongyu thought about it and felt that this idea was still very good.

"Well, that's good. We can do this, and maybe it may be that the Englishmen may or may not be able to govern it. Zhao Hongyu also knew that in addition, there was nothing he could do to solve it. But how to solve the problem of gold mines? I don't want the British to take advantage of them. ”

Now the gold mine is completely Zhao Hongyu's private property, and it has become different from when he cooperated with the Mohicans earlier.

"For the time being, the only thing we need to do is send a few more guards to the gold mining area and build a fortress on the veins. This is the only way to protect your property, but there will definitely be some damage, after all, we can't defend against all places. ”

This is an era of relying on manpower to do things, and Zhao Hongyu also knows this.

But if you can reduce some losses, let's reduce some losses.

In the case of insufficient manpower, this is the only way.

"This matter must be done as soon as possible, although it is already autumn, but the construction of the gold mine fortress must start immediately!" , Zhao Hongyu instructed Wang Shan. Wang Shan followed by his side, nodded and wrote it down.

Eight days had passed since they went back and forth, and at the entrance to the Hudson River, northeast of the city of Manhattan, a tall, all-wood house appeared.

When Zhao Hongyu left, there was no such building there, how could such a big house appear in only eight days?

"You're back!"

Song Hu, Ramour, Chelsea and others who stayed behind all came to the port to wait for Zhao Hongyu.

After seeing Zhao Hongyu walking down, Song Hu greeted him and greeted him.

"It's back, and things are going well over there. At the same time, the British see that there are benefits on our side, and I estimate that someone will come here to look for a job in half a month at most, so you guys should be ready. Zhao Hongyu responded with a smile, and at the same time informed them of what might happen first.

Who is this?

Of course, Wang Shan didn't need to be introduced by Zhao Hongyu, everyone who is familiar with it can't be more familiar.

But when the leader of the Gurkha mercenaries cultivated on the road appeared, it was no wonder that Song Hu was stunned, because he didn't know him.

"Let me introduce you, you will be a brother in the trenches from now on. The Gurkha Sharma can communicate in English and Hindi, and the Chinese language can be spoken. ”

As soon as Zhao Hongyu introduced this, other people outside Chelsea, such as Lamour and Wang Hu, understood.

Afterwards, Song Hu and Lamour smiled and greeted Sharma very warmly.

"What about Zhang Tie?"

Zhao Hongyu found that Zhang Tie did not appear, so he asked curiously.

"Zhang Tie was building a shipyard at the entrance to the Hudson River, so he didn't come here now."

Hearing this, Song Hu replied.

"Shipyard!?"

Hearing Song Hu say this, Zhao Hongyu suddenly became interested.

When he went to Yaksari City, Zhao Hongyu also talked to Wang Shan about shipbuilding.

I originally thought that I would start working on this when I came back.

Unexpectedly, before he could start doing it, Zhang Tie would already start doing it.

"Yes, Zhang Tie said that the logs that were cut down should be kept, and it is better to use them to build a shipyard and then start shipbuilding."

Song Hu took the phone and said.

Zhao Hongyu didn't make a sound, and listened very quietly.

"We also persuaded him, after all, we don't have a shipbuilder." , Song Hu saw that Zhao Hongyu did not interrupt him, and also showed a listening appearance, so he continued to speak.

But Zhang Tie said that we can start with a small boat and slowly accumulate experience. Once we have experience, we can start building big ships and battleships. ”

Hehe!

Zhao Hongyu laughed, he couldn't imagine that Zhang Tie would go with him, and he thought about it more comprehensively than himself.

Zhang Tiezhi said that he couldn't be a fat man in one bite, so he planned to start from a small boat. Step by step, we will accumulate experience, and then expand the scale of shipbuilding.

Although they have no experience in shipbuilding, the genetic people have knowledge that people of this era do not have.

Therefore, they can learn the skills of shipbuilding on their own, and draw useful drawings and record some important data.

"Let's go, take me there!"

After listening to Song Hu's story, Zhao Hongyu suddenly became interested, and he planned to go to the shipyard to have a look.

"Okay, please, it's not far from there." , Song Hu nodded and raised his right hand, pointing to the huge house not far away.

I thought it was, but it was a shipyard.

At this time, Zhao Hongyu realized that the newly built building was a shipyard.

"You don't have to follow me, I'll go with Song Hu and Wang Shan, and Lamul, you take Shamal to get acquainted with Manehattan City, and arrange some houses for them to live in."

It was impossible for Zhao Hongyu to take so many people to the shipyard together, so he only brought Wang Shan and nine guards genetive, as well as Song Hu.

After the others disembarked, they were led into the city by Lamour.

The sailors of the Galen ship did not disembark, and although they returned to their own territory, they could not be idle every day, and had to train and cruise.

In the waters of Manhattan today, only their four Galen ships are used as a defensive force, so they have to train and patrol every day to guard against attacks from afar.

"Originally, I also thought about coming back and starting to build the shipyard, but I didn't expect that Zhang Tie, this kid, took the first step."

On the way, Zhao Hongyu said excitedly to Song Hu.

"Your Majesty, after you leave, you can't sell the logs when you get them back. We're still building houses, but we don't need that many logs. So Zhang Tie came up with this method, which can consume logs at the same time, so that those Indians and genetic people can have something to do, otherwise a month's salary will not be in vain for them. ”

Hahaha!

Zhao Hongyu laughed when he heard this.

"Industrial silver doesn't cost much money, and if you don't have anything to do, you should be resting, and I'm not the kind of capitalist who drinks blood. However, I also know that Zhang Tie has good intentions, and he is just a little cautious. ”

Song Hu shrugged his shoulders, pouted and said, "Who says it's not, it's supposed to be two days off a week." But this guy longed for the workers to spin and never rest, so I wondered if this guy had the potential to be a black-hearted businessman. ”

mentioned Zhang Tie, Song Hu began to complain.

But everyone knows that Zhang Tie is for Zhao Hongyu's good, and his starting point is not bad.
