Chapter 1244 Road Construction

"The road is repaired?"

No sooner had the convoy come down from the main road than Durin noticed that the road from the main road to the town had completely changed.

In the past, the road was dirt and when it wasn't raining, it was dusty, and if horses or cars ran on the road, the dust would cover the sky.

When it rains, it's even more finished, because there are a lot of complicated things on this road, there are animals and cars, and the soil is softer in some places and tighter in others.

When the rain comes, take a soak, the whole road can rot and not look good, and it is not a rare thing not to break a horse leg or two when you are unlucky.

The road remained so inconvenient that Durin initially thought about building it, but after careful consideration for a while, he abandoned the plan.

It's not that he is stingy with the money he has to build the road, but when the road is repaired, it will inevitably change the peaceful life in Alfalfa Town.

Transportation will always be one of the basic conditions for a prosperous society, and it may not be a bad thing for the town of Alfalfa to prosper and live, but it is not a good thing for those who live in the town and want to hide themselves and have been hiding for decades.

More outsiders, more lively towns, the greater the possibility of them being exposed, and the risks and costs for them to hide themselves next have increased countless times.

In addition, Mr. Kersma has a bad temper and is an old man who likes to use his hands more than his mouth, so Durin thinks that it is better to let the development of Alfalfa Town "lag" a little for the time being.

He didn't expect that someone else would come to repair this road, so he looked at Mason, who was sitting next to him.

The two brothers were in a car, and Ophelia and Emile were in the same car, which Mason proposed, but Doolin thought that the person who actually thought this should be Emile, and he accepted the distribution without asking or debunking.

Mason smiled, "Of course, I spent less than 200,000 yuan to build this road, and you can't imagine how happy my father was when he found out about this idea." ”

He recalled Mr. Kersma during that time and couldn't help but laugh, "He secretly went to the city and hired someone to print some posters and put them on the town......"

Durin grew up knowing a lot of things, such as the fact that Mr. Kersma sometimes behaves in seemingly incomprehensible ways, and it's definitely not because of his eccentric personality, it's just that he wants to do something for his vanity to satisfy it.

It was in Mason's account that Dührin learned that Mr. Kersma, in addition to the posters, had also printed questionnaires emphasizing the role of the road and the difficulty of building it.

In this world, everything is easy to discuss, except for things related to money, which are not so easy to discuss, and the appearance of posters has indeed made some people in the town realize the necessity and difficulty of building roads - mainly because people are not willing to pay for their own pockets.

He then got some questionnaires for the town's residents to survey, one of which was, "If someone is willing to build a road from Alfalfa Town to the city for free, but asks for the right to name the road, do you think it is reasonable?"

The questionnaire listed in detail the various costs of building roads, and somewhat exaggerated this figure to 500,000, at least 350,000 yuan is needed to build an ordinary road, if you want better, less easily damaged, 500,000 is a very reasonable price.

Most of the people on this questionnaire chose to be indifferent, because they were really intimidated by the valuation, so they thought that whoever paid for the road should have the right to name it.

Then the road was repaired .......

"And then?", Dührin was also curious, Mr. Kersma's whimsical and strange ideas were always so different, and he felt that this was unlikely to happen, and it had nothing to do with who spent how much.

The Kersma family is not the dominant family in Alfalfa Town, although everyone knows that the Kersma family is not easy to mess with, except for a grumpy old man and a very good old woman, there are some children who are officials.

However, this cannot be used as a basis for Mr. Ksma to name the road leading from the town to the city "The Road to Ksma's House", which is a provocation to all the inhabitants of the town!

After several large quarrels and sane fights in the countryside, Mr. Kersma finally came to an agreement with the townspeople of Alfalfa, though his approach still made Durin a little ...... Be rendered speechless.

As the car sped down the paved road, the surrounding scenery became familiar after about twenty minutes, and more importantly, Durin saw Alfalfa Town, which was already ...... at the end of the road.

He counted six huge stone statues at least twelve meters high, and there seemed to be something written on the base.

In addition to Mr. and Mrs. Kersma, Durin's own statues appear at the end of the road, as well as those of Mason, Merlin, and Kinsale.

"In fact, there are still a lot of empty bases, and when the younger siblings gradually become adults and have a certain reputation, the father will send them to the same place. Mason burst into laughter again, "That's right, we'll all be standing there as a family......"

Durin laughed too, "I can't put it into words, maybe shame is more appropriate, I've never heard of anyone standing a statue not far from their home while they're alive, is he crazy?"

It turned out that Mr. Kersma was not crazy, and when the car stopped at the gate of the town, Mr. Kersma appeared at the gate and the convoy stopped.

Durin pushed the door and got out of the car, and just as he was about to say something, Mr. Kersma waved his hand, "Don't be grateful to me, I just think it's a bit monotonous if only me and your mother were made into statues, so I added you too." ”

"I quarreled with them for a long time about this, and in the end I still won, but I did it for myself, not you, so you don't have to thank me. ”

Durin was holding back what he wanted to say, anyway, as long as the old man was happy.

Mr. Kersma raised his chin and looked at Ophelia standing behind him and said, "This is Maggs's niece? I thought she had blue skin and two horns!"

The blue skin and horns on her head are demons in the myths of the Guartes, and it is clear that Mr. Kersma does not like Ophelia, she is not only a descendant of the Ogdin but also a great nobleman, which is the complete opposite of what Mr. Kerma did in the first half of his life, so how can the old man be satisfied?
