Despite the fact that most of the brick walls are used, there is still quite a bit of stone required.

There is no stone mountain near Jingzhou City, so naturally there is no stone production, so the stone must be solved by external transportation.

If it is processed into strips of stone in the quarry, then the loss in transportation is relatively large, so the rough stones can only be transported to the vicinity of Jingzhou City and then processed into regular strips of stone.

Not to mention the irregularity of the quarried rough stones, there is also the problem of large volume and heavy weight, so it is usually transported by water.

"Water transport?" Hearing this topic, Cheng Laohei became energetic: "Don't worry about this, wrap it up on me." ”

Qian Jingsheng shook his head and said that it was not that simple.

Tianmen County only relies on the Han River, not directly on the Yangtze River. Therefore, there is no direct waterway to Jingzhou City. It is necessary to follow the Han River all the way to Wuchang, where it joins the Yangtze River, and then from Wuchang against the Yangtze River to Jingzhou.

This is quite time-consuming, labor-intensive, and not a good option.

Qin Xiaoluan asked, "Then can we consider mobilizing stones from other places?" Especially along the Yangtze River? ”

Qian Jingsheng nodded and said that he meant that.

The Zhijiang River in the upper reaches of Jingzhou City is the stone production area. There are a lot of stones, but it is difficult to do in terms of transportation.

Qin Xiaoluan asked puzzledly, "Isn't it still transported by ship?" What's not to do? ”

Qian Jingsheng glanced at Cheng Laohei and didn't speak.

Cheng Laohei didn't have any scruples and explained to Qin Xiaoluan.

The Cao Gang is actually a type of gangster. On the surface, it is the trafficking of cotton grain, but in fact, the biggest part of the real profit is in the trafficking of prohibited materials such as salt, iron, and medicine.

Heavy materials such as stones, which cannot be run fast on the ship, and are time-consuming and laborious to load and unload at the dock, are the products with the lowest profits. Therefore, the Cao Gang in various places basically will not take this job.

"Hey, who just said that as long as it's on the water, it can be solved?" Huang Tiezhu whispered.

Cheng Laohei glanced up at Huang Tiezhu, lowered his head and said, "If you really need it, I can do it." ”

"Iron Pillar, don't talk nonsense!" Su Xiao glared at Huang Tiezhu dissatisfied.

What does the dock stand for since ancient times? You can see it from the relevant vocabulary.

Hit the dock, break the dock, fight the dock, worship the dock, the boat kidnapper, the robe brother, cross the river dragon......

If you want to mix on the big rivers, you must have a "wharf".

Cheng Laohei said "you can do it", in fact, he refers to taking people to lay down the Zhijiang Wharf, which can be imagined in the bloody rain.

Regardless of whether it can be defeated or not, it is contrary to Cheng Laohei's idea of joining the Qin family's class.

Huang Tiezhu also knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said: "Gang Master Cheng, don't listen to me indiscriminately put P." ”

"Strategist, do you have any good ideas?" Su Xiao had long noticed Yang Buxian, whose face was uncertain.

Yang Buxian hesitated for a long time before he reluctantly said: "Actually, it's not difficult to say this. Jingzhou city construction, but the prince personally supervised the city defense project. No matter what kind of gang it is, do you dare to openly confront it? ”

Huang Tiezhu slapped his thigh: "Yes, why didn't we think of this?" When the time comes, we will directly drive the ship to transport it, if they dare to block or collect the water money, as long as they say that they built Jingzhou City, dare not let it go? ”

Cheng Laohei looked at Huang Tiezhu with a foolish look.

If things were really so simple, it would be nice to rely on the Qin family class to run and say "We are from Jingzhou", even if people don't know how to resist, it is indispensable to secretly make stumbling blocks.

According to Huang Tiezhu, you go to transport it yourself, what about loading and unloading at the dock? Also, this in itself is a matter of borrowing someone else's dock.

There is no one to dispatch the ships in and out of the port, so can they not hit the ship every day? Not to mention that people are the head snakes that have been entrenched over there for a long time, as long as they don't cooperate with you, whether you can receive the stone or not is the same thing.

From quarrying to loading and unloading to transportation to scheduling, etc., all send their own people? It's obviously unrealistic.

Therefore, this matter must be willingly cooperated by the people of the Cao Gang over there.

Cheng Laohei asked: "So what the military advisor means is that this matter must be done by the official people, so that the other side will not dare not cooperate." ”

Yang Buxian's face showed an expression of being fed Xiang, and he had to say "really fragrant".
