Chapter 81: Post-War Construction

Dracula's castle had been emptied by the troops brought by Wang Xijia. These troops basically did not encounter any large-scale battles when they followed, and they just stood by and used them to make a strong noise. If you can't make some effort when you move, it's completely a food consumption machine.

Garrincha advocated that the vacant castle be burned, but Wang Xika sternly refused: "What are you burning for? This castle must be preserved, so that future generations can come here to visit and commemorate it!"

Garrincha didn't quite understand: "We are werewolves, what is there to visit in the vampire's house?"

Wang Xijia said: "There will be no vampires from now on. You tell the story of Dracula to the kids, and they don't even know what Dracula is like. Leave this house behind, and there will be a story to tell in the future!"

Wang Xika's theory convinced Garrincha and the soldiers, and everyone returned to the camp laden with booty, and Dracula's castle was preserved.

From the bottom of his heart, what Wang Xika hates most is that ancient people burned other people's houses when they went to war. If Xiang Yu didn't burn Afang Palace, then modern people would be able to know where Qin Shi Huang lived.

As soon as they returned to the werewolf grassland, the werewolves were eager to divide the spoils.

Wang Xijia was not interested in any of the gold and silver treasures in Dracula's castle, and he went on to divide them all. Jax and the two werewolves who found the vampire underground had a few more shares.

The large boxes of books that were shipped out of Dracula's basement didn't get any points, and no one except him was interested in the mess written by vampires anyway.

As for Isabella and the other prisoners of war, Wang Xika asked them to go back to the mouth of the river with him, and then find a place to arrange. Staying in the Werewolf Grassland will definitely not survive for a week.

Before Wang Xika returned to the camp, he specially called the Great Elder Gallo over: "After I leave, you must let the clansmen eat acquaintances, drink cooked water, and search the river carefully again to see if there is any Dracula's iron box that was leaked last time." People who find themselves sick must isolate and avoid contact. Remember?"

"Remember, my king. Gallo agreed. From his eyes, it can be seen that this great elder who has assisted the wolf king for several generations is very convinced by Wang Xijia. Because of this new wolf king, he defeated Dracula, the old enemy of werewolves from ancient times to the present, and did what all wolf kings had never done.

"I'll be back in a few days and I'll be back for everyone. Wang Xika said. Drinking water sanitation is a big problem, and tap water can at least greatly reduce the chance of people getting sick due to unclean drinking water.

"What is a water pipe?" Gallo, though well-informed, had never heard of such a thing.

"It's just that everyone can drink water, and you'll know in a few days. Wang Xika replied.

The development of tap water on the grassland always reminds people of the history of the development of tap water in the Qing Dynasty in the 19th century.

In addition to the water pipes, there are also roads, airports, and most importantly, the most important network that Wang Xika has always been thinking about. Now that the war is over, whether it's hairy people, craftsmen, werewolves or vampires, it's time to put all your energy into construction. As soon as possible, the scientific and technological level of this era will be raised to the level of future generations.

After returning to Shanghekou, Wang Xika immediately transported Dracula's experimental diary to Coffee Island and asked Nikolai to help decipher it. He has a lot of respect for the vampire doctor on this solitary island and would love to hear his opinion.

"What kind of writing is this?" asked Nikolai, pointing to the ghostly handwriting on the experimental diary. This script is not like the English, Latin, and Sanskrit that he has seen in later generations, but it is somewhat like the Sumerian script of the Two Rivers Valley.

"It's blood. It's the script of the Bloodline. Nikolai said.

"Do you know how to write blood?" Wang Xika asked.

"Yes, that's what our people say, how could it not?" said Nikolai.

At this time, Wang Xijia was relieved, he was afraid that no one in the world would know this strange writing, which would lead to the loss of the civilization of the blood clan.

"What is Nikolai talking about?"

"It's mainly about the various medicines he dispenses, which are basically poisons. ”

"Does it work for you?"

"Well, it's still a little useful, but it's not very useful. ”

"It's a little useful, let's let you go first. ”

"Okay. ”

"By the way, do you see if Dracula has a drug that is like blood in color and can control people's minds through volatilization and make people unable to move?"

"Okay, I'll look for it. ”

Dracula and Nikolai usually like to study drugs, but they go the opposite way. Dracula likes to study harmful medicines, and Nikolai likes to study life-saving medicines.

Wang Xijia always suspected that he was controlled when he duel with Dracula, and it was also Dracula's medicine. If the drug is used as an anesthetic, it would be good for surgery.

"By the way, this time I found more than 200 vampires in Nikolai Castle, and I have locked them up at the mouth of the upper river, otherwise you will take them to the island and take care of them?" Wang Xijia thinks that the best way to deal with vampire captives is to let Nikolai, who is also a blood clan, manage it.

"Don't do it, I came to this island alone because I don't like being with the Bloodline. Nikolai said.

"Okay then, I'll take care of it myself. I'll go back first, and I'll send someone to call you in a few days. Seeing that Nikolai was unwilling to take on the task of guarding the prisoners of war, Wang Xika had no choice but to come by himself. Anyway, I already manage the craftsmen, werewolves, and hairy people, and it's not a big deal to manage the blood clan more.

There are more such races, there are more frictions, and these strange races have no modern consciousness, and battles for the purpose of exterminating each other break out at every turn. It is difficult to take into account such a large scope by relying on the "three chapters of the law" set by himself in the early days, and a perfect legal system is required.

It takes time to formulate a perfect law, so Wang Xijia decided to implement language first. Werewolves, hairy people, and blood clans each have their own languages, which is fine, but Chinese must be used in formal occasions for Chinese as an official language.

No matter what race you are in your territory, you must learn to recognize Chinese characters. Only races whose language does not have a written language can use Chinese as their own script.

Then there is the uniform unit of measurement. Abolish the miscellaneous units of measurement such as ounces, pounds, stones, quintals, inches, and rulers. Grams, kilograms, and tons are uniformly used as units of weight. The unit of length also uniformly uses centimeters, meters, and kilometers as units. The unit of capacity is replaced by liters and milliliters.

These two tricks were learned from Qin Shi Huang. Qin Shi Huang received mixed reviews in later generations, but as a ruler, he did have something.

At that time, Genghis Khan of Mongolia conquered more countries than Qin Shi Huang, and the territory area was larger than that of Qin Shi Huang, but it was not long-lasting. The main reason is that there was no unified script and weights and measures within the territory of the Mongol Empire.

Uniform script, unified weights and measures are very beneficial for ruling multi-ethnic areas.

With a unified script, everyone can understand the orders you issue. With a unified unit of measurement and length, it is better to promote education in the territory.

Otherwise, of course, he did not learn from Qin Shi Huang, but allowed the various ethnic groups to retain their native languages and cultural traditions. After all, as a modern man, he knows the value of cultural diversity.

After doing these two things, Wang Xijia always felt that there was something missing, and that his large territory had to have a name, such as Qin, Han, Wei, Jin, Sui, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing, and so on. After thinking about it, good names have been taken by others, and I don't want to repeat them. In the end, it was decided that the territory under his rule should be called the "kingdom of people", after all, this territory was established by people. All the people in the territory who walk on two legs and can speak are classified as "Terrans." ”

Everyone must first know that they are a citizen of the human kingdom, they are a member of the human race, and then they are divided into werewolves, hairy people, blood tribes and so on. There is a sense of identity between each other, so that they will not think about you beating me and I will beat you all day long.

After doing these two items, Wang Xika basically found the feeling of "King Qin sweeps Liuhe, and looks at He Xiongzai".

initially achieved hegemony and became the "conqueror of the world" as Nikolai said, but Wang Xika was not proud. Of course, as a time-traveler, there is nothing to be proud of being able to defeat some primitives with the scientific and technological knowledge of later generations.

His main idea is to improve the technological level of this era as soon as possible, make this era the same as the future generations, so that everyone can lie in bed and swipe their mobile phones as soon as possible.

However, computers, networks, and smartphones are a big problem, and Wang Xika can't do it at all. In later generations, there were some smart people who could "teach themselves to program" or something, but that would require textbooks to program. If there are no textbooks, isn't that "homemade programming"?

There was a joke on the Internet in later generations that a master could use a key to carve a Windows system on a blank disc. Of course, Wang Xika is not such a master, he can only do something he will do first.

For example, first do a good job of transportation within the territory. "If you want to get rich, build roads first" is an eternal truth in all eras. Convenient transportation can strengthen the exchange of people and materials within the territory, and can make the economic development of the "people's country".

Wang Xijia plans to build highways between the Craftsman Plain, the Baimao Snow Mountain, the Heimao Canyon, the Werewolf Grassland, and Dracula's Castle, and then build airports in various major cities. In short, the purpose is to make it easier for people to move.

The other is to survey the hydrology, build hydroelectric power plants in rivers and wind power plants in grasslands. Hydropower and wind power are both clean energy sources and cause less damage to environmental pollution.

These are big projects that require a lot of people to complete.

Wang Xijia did not use labor to the death like Qin Shi Huang did when he built the Great Wall, but strictly followed the work standards of later generations, with two days off for every five days of work. Refuse to work overtime, refuse 996.

Wang Xijia personally participated in every project, because no one else would know, only he would, he had to teach a few smart people by hand, and then let those smart people teach other workers one by one, ten by hundred.

It is estimated that in 10 years, the average standard of living in the newly established People's Republic will reach the level of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Airports were built in the city, cars and motorcycles began to run on the roads, and every house was equipped with electric lights and telephones. In addition to the fact that there is no computer, it basically reaches the standard of living of modern people.

Wang Xika plans to build more railways in various places, so that the country's transportation capacity will be greatly improved. I believe that in another period of development, it will not be difficult for the technology level of the country to reach the standards of future generations.
