Chapter 589: Dongzhu
The vast majority of shipbuilders and carpenters in the town did not get a good rest. In fact, the craftsmen who work in the dockyard have long been recognized as "the hardest working craftsmen in Fengxiang City", and no craftsman in any place or industry needs to work so hard for such a long time.
The need for ships in the territory is too great!
The sailors need warships, the fishermen need fishing boats, and the manpower and efficiency of the top dockyards have reached their limits. Seeing that he could breathe a sigh of relief, the idea of the Canglan Naval Division's threefold expansion and Ah Niu's intention to form a civilian merchant fleet suddenly made the dock of Shiptown dark.
"Lord of the City, the craftsmen of the shipyard in Ship Town have been working overtime to build ships for a long time, and they can't continue like this!" Jiang Qi said with a sad face.
Obviously, Jiang Qi had no choice but to find a certain city lord theory, he could be busy every day without regrets, but he couldn't help but consider the feelings and endurance of those craftsmen. The reform of the shipyard in Taketown is urgent, otherwise, it will greatly affect the formation of the combat effectiveness of the Fengxiang City Naval Division, and the appearance time of the merchant fleet!
"Well, I did wronged everyone, it was Ah Niu's inconsiderate consideration, please forgive me. If Master Jiang has any thoughts on this, you might as well tell them. Ah Niu said apologetically.
Such a sincere attitude warmed Jiang Qi's heart. With the words of the city lord, all the hard work is worth it.
"Lord of the city, the direction of the exhibition of the town is fishing and shipbuilding, the town is still a second-class township, and now the villagers engaged in fishery production and shipbuilding in the town are about four or six open, and shipbuilding has become the most important industry in the town. Since 40% of the population of the town is engaged in fishing, even if we want to expand the production capacity of our shipyard, there is not enough population balance and vacant positions to accommodate more craftsmen, and these two major problems have severely restricted the increase of ship production capacity in the town!
In my opinion, it would be better to split the existing industrial structure of the town and reopen a purely fishery-oriented subordinate territory for those fishermen - Fengxiang has just been upgraded to a third-level city, and there should be a vacant quota for the subordinate territory.
When the more than 1,600 fishermen moved away, the vacated population could accommodate more craftsmen, and the town could concentrate all its efforts on shipbuilding! ”
Jiang Qi's idea of splitting the town of Exo made Ah Niu's eyes shine, this plan is quite feasible, it can be seen that Jiang Qi had thought about it in advance, but Ah Niu also noticed some details that Jiang Qi had not mentioned.
"It's not difficult to split up the town and establish a new subordinate territory for the fishermen to live nearby, and the vacated population balance can indeed allow more artisans to settle in, but Master Jiang seems to have missed another key problem: just adding artisans and not enough vacancies will not improve shipbuilding capacity! The last time I went to the top dockyard, I couldn't keep stuffing people into it. Ah Niu said with a smile.
"Yes, the current top-of-the-line dockyard can't accommodate more craftsmen, but we can build a new one!"
"Building a new dockyard?"
"Yes! Although the newly built primary docks cannot be used to produce warships of the Hazy Chong and Fighting Ship classes, they can produce ordinary fishing boats, red horse boats, light boats and other ships, and if the dock level is upgraded in the future, these newly built docks will be able to better share the shipbuilding pressure of the top docks.
If the lord agrees, I would like to build ten primary docks for the production of small boats. The current top-level shipyard can completely focus on the manufacture of large ships such as hazy and fighting ships, as well as the research of building ships! The more Jiang Qi spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes were full of terrifying light.
Ah Niu paid attention to Jiang Qi for a while, and laughed, "Just according to what the master said!" ”
Just do what he says, Ah Niu, who has the style of words and deeds, quickly urged Sun Liang to handle this major matter.
Fengxiang's sixteenth subordinate territory: Dongzhu Town, a first-class township, village head Fan Hai. In order to scale the fishery production in Fengxiang and improve the efficiency of fishery production, senior fisherman Fan Hai stepped forward to create a subsidiary territory, with a current population of 1,618 people. Territory Direction: Fisheries.
Less than two hours after the establishment of Dongzhu Town, all the fishermen of the original foreign town migrated over, and Dongzhu Town suddenly reached the scale of 1,618 people, which is not far from the upper limit of 2,000 people in the first-class township.
The establishment of this subordinate territory marks that the two major industries of Fengxiang fishery and shipbuilding have bid farewell to the mixed mode of the past and officially separated, and the situation of relying only on the subsidiary territory of Ship Town to operate the two major industries has become obsolete.
The location of Dongzhu Town is in the upstream of Takelai Town, the northeast corner of Fengxiang City, and it is very close to Wuwei Town. It can be seen from the map that the geographical location of "Wuwei + Dongzhu" in the north of Fengxiang City and "Dragon and Tiger + Foreign" in the south of Fengxiang City is symmetrical, one south and one north echo each other, and the two subordinate territories by the sea are not far from the main city, and they are close to Fengxiang's military territory, once threatened, they can be rescued quickly, such a layout fully reflects the concern of a city lord about the security of these two territories.
Judging from the situation in the game, those city-level territories near the sea, the number of subordinate territories engaged in the maritime industry is mostly three to five, and Fengxiang only has a maritime territory in Ship Town, which is quite cold, and the establishment of Dongzhu Town makes Fengxiang City, which is close to the East China Sea. The scale of investment in the maritime industry has increased, although it has come a little late.
The defense of Dongzhu Town was also in charge of the Canglan Naval Division, a transferred military general of the Canglan Naval Division, and a long-term garrison with a force of 500 people.
There is only one reason why this newly built territory was named Dongzhu Town, and there is only one reason why it sent sailors to garrison it: Dongzhu Town, which mainly focuses on fishing, has naturally taken over all maritime industries except shipbuilding, and Donghai Pearl is naturally no exception.
The subordinate territory that can produce more than 200 East China Sea pearls every month needs to be guarded by heavy troops!
Bei Niangzi, a friend of the golden carp, has always complained about the "noise pollution" of the top dock in the bay of the town, "It's really noisy, and the noise rarely stops day or night, and no one wants to live."
Bei Niangzi was upset several times, and a certain city lord made a shameful threat to the golden carp: "If you can't keep your good friend, I'll let you stay on the shore for a few hours every day...... No, that's too cruel, so let's do it, if Bei Niangzi and her people migrate, you can honestly let me go back to the fish pond to stay. Your friends are gone, why are you still in the sea? ”
So, the golden carp had to find a way to do the ideological work of Bei Niangzi with tears in his eyes, "My master is so hospitable, maybe he thinks that your departure is our Fengxiang's inconsiderate hospitality, and he has never been more thunderous at me, threatening to lock me up in the fish pond if you leave......"
When Bei Niangzi heard this, her heart softened, and she sighed, "It turns out that the city lord of Aniu is not only kind and kind, but also so hospitable." In addition, Bei Niangzi didn't want her good friend to be confined, so she had to stay.
In fact, Ah Niu doesn't care too much about the friendship between the golden carp and Bei Niangzi, whether it can last forever, Ah Niu only cares about one thing: as soon as Bei Niangzi leaves, those pearl shells will of course say goodbye to Feng Xiang, and then the precious East China Sea pearls will be insulated from Feng Xiang from then on.
That kind of situation is absolutely unwilling to accept by Ah Niu!
With the establishment of Dongzhu Town. The pearl shells also moved very happily en masse, swimming from the bay near the town to the outside of the town of Dongzhu, although they could still hear the sound of the dock in the town, but the sound was much quieter, and the pearl shells were very satisfied with this.
Of course, the pearl shells inhabit the new sea area, and the seabed has already set up a batch of new large porcelain plates, which are for the pearl shells to throw "small stone heads". The colors and patterns of the patterns on the porcelain plate are also the result of a certain city lord who learned about the preference of pearl shells from the golden carp, and ordered the craftsmen in the kiln factory in the territory to carefully make zuò, striving to bring a sense of home to those "precious" guests.
"Their service is really attentive, yes!" The pearl shells cheered.
After learning the reaction of the Bei Niangzi people from the goldfish, Ah Niu's smile was very bright, "As long as they are satisfied, as long as they are satisfied...... Well, don't forget to remind them again, don't throw small rocks everywhere on the bottom of the sea! ”
"Rest assured, the owner has become very vegetarian since they came here, and they will never litter!" The golden carp said with great certainty.
The exhibition direction of the town was officially changed to "shipbuilding".
Although the current financial situation of Fengxiang is not optimistic, the construction funds of the ten primary docks are obviously not saved, and Jiang Qi is busy with people. When new shipbuilders and carpenters are trained in the town, and the new dock can be put into use, Fengxiang's ship production capacity will be doubled!
That's not all, Ah Niu has already told Sun Liang, the deputy city lord, that the next opportunity to upgrade the subordinate territory is left to the town of Exo. When the town is upgraded from a second-class township to a third-class township, the population limit will be increased from 4,000 to 8,000.
In the current town, there are only nearly 2,400 craftsmen. When the number of craftsmen in the entire dependent territory reaches 8,000, it is the time when the shipbuilding capacity of the town is the strongest! It will take a long process, and it will take time to cultivate talents, but Jiang Qi, the mayor of Terrai Town, is now excited.
The scorching sun is in the sky, it is the middle of summer, the sun makes people drowsy, and the occasional passing breeze is just a drop in the bucket, unable to dispel the heat.
Jiang Qin of the Canglan Naval Division was on a newly launched Hazy Rushing ship, observing the training of the Canglan Naval Division, and in the distance, several light boats were hovering around the periphery, preventing the ships of the rest of the forces from approaching. In the territory near the sea, more and more lords realized the importance of the shipbuilding industry, and in recent times, many fishing boats and merchant ships from other territories have appeared in the waters near Fengxiang, and the sailors have to send light boats to be on guard.
The expansion of the Canglan Water Division has not yet been completed. At present, the actual establishment of the sailor division is only more than 2,000, and the rest of the soldiers need to be selected from those villagers who are quite familiar with water, and fishermen are the best choice. Jiang Qin would rather wait a little longer for the right talent to emerge among the displaced people than to thanklessly drive the landlubbers into the water.
Of course, Jiang Qin had already reported this to Ah Niu in advance.
Today, the officers and men of the Canglan Navy Division were particularly excited during the training, and they were all shirtless under the scorching sun, and the assassination and fighting exercises on the water were quite combat-oriented, and even Jiang Qin was extremely stern. The reason is simple, the city lord is here.
On the wharf of Takelai Town, Ah Niu stood there quietly, looking at the vast sea with his hands behind his back, and the second brother Li Qi and the fifth brother Zhao Yun were also present. They didn't appear here to see the training of the sailors, judging from the time, today should be the time for the Tengjiao to return.
Ah Niu and the others were waiting for the return of the Tengjiao where Wang Yue and Zhao Xue were located.
"Fourth brother, if you encounter wind and waves on the sea outside the Dahan Sea Frontier, or if the wind direction is not right, it will affect the degree of the ship. Moreover, it has only been eight days since you returned to the territory from Xianshan, and under normal circumstances, the Tengjiao will only return in at least seven days, how do you know that the eldest brother and Xiaoxue must be back today? ”
After standing under the scorching sun for nearly an hour, Li Qi finally couldn't help but ask. You must know that Xiaoyu followed in the footsteps of Ah Niu shortly after he committed suicide and returned to the city, and there was no player on the Tengjiao, if you want to predict the accurate return date, I am afraid that only the gods can do it.
Ah Niu smiled, "Second brother doesn't know, Ah Niu is sure that Tengjiao will come back today because someone once promised me that Tengjiao's way back must be smooth!" ”
"Who has the ability to do that?"
A certain city lord smiled but didn't answer, and glanced at Li Qi, the corners of his mouth turned to Zhao Yun who was standing on the other side, with a mysterious smile on his face. As soon as he saw the slightly lewd evil smile of a certain city lord, Li Qi suddenly realized. The two of them squeezed their eyebrows and exchanged silently, their eyes full of smiles.
Zhao Yun didn't understand what the two brothers meant, this majestic general on the battlefield actually looked a little helpless, his handsome face turned red, he smiled awkwardly, pretended to stand there calmly and said nothing, and let the beads of sweat fall on his forehead and neck.
(I don't have time today, I've only rushed so much, I owe two thousand and I'll pay it back tomorrow, I'm sorry.)
