Chapter 277 West Malaysia Highway (1)
Chapter 277 West Malaysia Highway (1)
The concrete road is silently paved forward. Transporting animals brought tons of volcanic ash, which was a natural cement material that the ancient Romans used to build the Colosseum and other magnificent buildings.
Although Yu Weichao is not a professional architectural engineer, he knows the history of almost all sciences - just reading books is enough. Coupled with the computers and books that Chen Yi sent to the Western Continent, it was a little difficult to be self-taught, but it was easy to build an illegal highway.
In China in the 21st century, there are too many roads that are not in accordance with the rules. Some people are wasting national resources to learn skills, and some people are earning national resources after learning skills, all in all, since the county magistrate's brother-in-law who has not graduated from junior high school can use two teams of roadside migrant workers to build a 20-kilometer secondary road, it is not too difficult for Yu Weichao to build a road to the western continent.
The excavator cooperates with the beasts, and the roar is mixed with the mooing of the beasts, which is the main feature of the Jiangma Highway. The gravel from the rocky hill on the left is of good quality and could not be better for paving roads. But the crusher can use the earth's products, but the transportation can only rely on local methods, otherwise another road will be built, not to mention, there are not many people who know how to drive engineering equipment. Excavators are used to dig deep into the earth, and the local rivers are numerous, and the water system of Qianmo once resembled a swamp, and the surrounding primeval forest-like environment made the conditions more and more difficult to navigate, so that it was common to use excavators to go five or six meters deep underground.
Sang Chengqiang led three logging teams to take a step forward, responsible for cutting down all kinds of towering trees, and never created conditions for widening. The cut wood also has many uses, at least it is convenient to send it back to the water village, even if it is used to build a simple dock.
Song Zhuang led two inspection teams to patrol the water village and the construction site, and he also had an indigenous medical team under his command, mainly from distant Shangyi villages and foreign mercenaries, with a small amount of modern medicine, at least to ensure the safety of the workers.
The rest of the engineering and security projects were all under the control of She Lei, and there were dozens of new students under him. As for the little fat man Li Changning, although he is the most official among the students - he is smart and unruly, but Chen Yi only asks him to do chores, and in the days when the curator is full of words, he is also full of enthusiasm and helpless.
After a week, the road reached a length of 1.5 kilometers, but the number of people used increased day by day, and soon exceeded 1,000 people, gaining speeds of 100 to 300 meters per day.
Although in the eyes of Yu Weichao and others, such construction is too slow and too slow, but in the eyes of the people of the Western Continent, "Jiangning people" has become synonymous with magic, and many locals fear the most feared saber-toothed beasts, as long as they are close to the logging group or the highway infrastructure group within 1000 meters, there will be no way to live, and the eternal crossfire even once tore these 10-meter-long, extremely flexible beasts to pieces, so that She Lei had to delay the firing time of the second tǐng heavy machine gun at the suggestion of the workers. If the first tǐng heavy machine gun bans the beast within two seconds, then the second tǐng heavy machine gun does not need to fire.
In this way, there are some whole pieces of saber-toothed meat for the aborigines of the road construction.
The power of the heavy machine gun was only deeply rooted in the hearts of the people at this time, including the village chiefs of Yuncun and Xiayun Village, Hunting Village and two Xialie Villages, and Shangshi Village and four Xiashi Villages, all of which had surrendered to the people of Jiangning. According to the tradition of the Western Continent, this kind of surrender means that no villager can resist the Jiangning people until the death of the village chief - this method of tying their hands is also a way of survival, because in the city-state war, the villagers have neither the ability to resist the onslaught of the knights, nor the ability to survive the sweep of the heavy infantry, so they have to quietly convert to a certain side to find a certain space to survive. After all, no matter which temple or city-state, it needs basic civilians as the foundation, just like the current Jiangning people, whether it is a stone mine or a road, they need a large number of people.
Of course, Toucheng is not an eternal submission to one party, it has a small but big loophole, that is, the submission is only valid while the village chief is alive, and when the first village chief dies, the village can theoretically return to any other party unless the submission ceremony is held again. The current rituals of Yuncun, Hunting Village and Shicun returning to Mara City can all be traced back to five generations ago. Although the latecomers paid tribute and paid grain, they were just ordinary subordinate villages. Even after the conversion, if the current village wants to rebel, it can only be done by hanging the village chief, or the village chief committing suicide, and then the new city-state can be resubmitted under the leadership of the new village chief.
In the view of Yu Weichao and others, the real meaning of this submission is to recognize Shuizhai as a city-state, although the nobles of Mara City will certainly not recognize it.
A Humvee spewed hot air and drove slowly on the newly built highway, and the machine gun slowly rotated under Qin Dajiang's operation. He is a student of the sixth batch, and he came to the Western Continent in order to get A+ loyalty. Compared with the diverse emotions of many classmates, Qin Dajiang, who was nervous, was the first to adapt to life here.
Not surprisingly, the first students to enter the workforce are the best treated. He and four other trainees became the only Humvee operators in the city, while the last trainees to get into the working state had to be formed into a new inspection team of children, patrolling everywhere, tired every day, not to mention, slightly lower than the cadets with ranks.
When people stay in one place for a long time, they naturally change their thinking mode and generate new demands and thoughts based on local conditions. The students are in the Western Continent, and after spending the initial fear and mí, they naturally want better living conditions, and some officials will jump out and want to gain new rights.
Yu Weichao did not refuse, asked about everyone's skills in detail and filed them, and then tried to arrange positions. This still caused some shock among the students, and if it weren't for the current bad environment, I am afraid that everyone would not be able to bear the hope of becoming an official. Modern officials have free communities, free cars, privileged social status, and the ability to bless their children and grandchildren -- this is the main motivation for ordinary people to become officials.
Conditions in the western continent were much more difficult, with little substance other than a slight improvement in basic living conditions. But everyone is not stupid, everyone knows that when the West Malaysia Highway is built, there will inevitably be a big leap in various conditions, and some people have begun to inquire whether there are noble women who are as beautiful as fairies, or young Lori.
ruler
This word has always been in Qin Dajiang's mind.
In fact, the current trainees have long been served, everyone does not have to clean the room, nor do they need to boil water to cook, and the servants hired by the servant village are on call and well-behaved, but when it comes to eye-catching, there is basically no more.
There was a burst of laughter from inside the carriage.
Qin Dajiang turned his head and happened to see the trainees of the capital construction group knowing the work there.
He also slightly hooked the corners of his mouth.
Everyone actually came to the Western Continent together, Qin Dajiang and the others were active, and they didn't have such a strong spirit of resistance, and under the condition that the curator guaranteed that the welfare remained unchanged, they would treat the Western Continent as a foreign country.
However, some students are not enlightened, and always want to make a fuss, and only when the good work is assigned is completed, then they silently begin to enter the work state. As a result, not only did they drop one notch in their evaluation, but they could only work in the capital construction team.
"It's off the road, be careful." Xiao Zhuo, who was driving, shouted and banged the accelerator of the Hummer.
In front of the road is a bumpy road with gravel that has not yet been laid with cement, and the trees on both sides of the road have been cut down, so as long as the cement group behind them is paved, the main paving work is completed.
Qin Dajiang and the others had to keep moving forward, patrolling for more than 10 kilometers. The upper echelons of the water village are most worried about encountering some strange animals and causing casualties in the dark fort ahead, so they are asked to determine their survival status.
Xia Gallium of the capital construction team heard the roar of the Humvee and deliberately lowered his head not to look. I thought that he would have no worries about food and clothing at home, but I didn't expect to come to such a magical land -- and it was the hardest and most tiring earthwork excavation. He originally wanted a vacation, but Yu Weichao didn't give it anyway, and when the dispute ended, he was left with only a job position in the capital construction team, and he didn't even have the qualifications to drive an excavator.
"Hurry up." Xia Gallium couldn't help but scream.
The trainees were all given level 3 konjac, which was the largest commodity that Shui Zhai bought from other places besides grain, and those merchants who specialized in temple goods were about to love them to death.
When the three overseers of this group heard Xia Gao's shout, they immediately put down the shovel in their hands and shouted: "I have heard Lord Jiang Ning's words, speed up." ”
The workers complained and buried their heads in the soil. Excavators are used to excavate a large amount of earthwork, but workers need to do it where the excavated earthwork is used.
One beast can carry three to five tons of soil, enough for a capital construction team of 20 people to dig for a long time.
Overseer Tu Twelve came up, handed a cigarette to Xia Gallium with a smile, nodded and said, "Look, are we going to arrange the food first?" ”
"Go ahead." Xia Gallium did not take his cigarette. The only real benefit that the overseers have better than the workers is that they have a box of cigarettes every two days, which is a very good benefit in the boring field life. On the contrary, the food is admirable, there is always enough meat to eat, and vegetables are abundant - the sunshine conditions on the western continent are more than 10 times that of the earth, which means that on a macro level, the food here will be 10 times more abundant than the earth. Coupled with the fact that the land is vast and sparsely populated, everyone can eat meat.
However, in addition to food, clothing, accommodation, and other environments, the Western Continent is much worse than the ancient earthlings - the creatures in the wild dare to attack humans blatantly.
"I'm going to pee, you watch." Xia Gallium walked down the roadbed of the dirt mat, and the other two overseers hurriedly agreed, urging the workers even harder.
The overseers are villagers from Shangtu Village or Shangshi Village, while the workers are villagers from Xiatu Village or Xiashi Village. Due to their regular participation in large-scale projects, their clan management is much stricter than that of other upper villages, except for not killing people, there are all kinds of punishments, as long as the water village gives enough money, they don't have to worry about anything.
Xia Gallium didn't want to worry about it either.
A person alone with the capital construction team, and there is not even a person on earth who can speak, this kind of life.
He shook off the clean little tuǐ vigorously, and sang the national anthem while tying the kù bag, in such a difficult environment, there is nothing to lift people's spirits except for singing red songs.
"Hmm"
"Whew."
There was a dull shouting ahead. Xia Hao frowned and thought: Hit someone again? These barbarians.
He grabbed the grip of the pistol with his right hand, and swung his machete with his left hand as he cut through the dense grass again.
The scene in front of him immediately frightened him.
A place of dead bodies.
There are also a dozen natives wrapped in blades of grass, mending knives to the moaners.
"There's one more." Somehow the indigenous language shouted, causing Xia Gallium to stumble and almost fall to the ground.
Two wooden javelins whizzed and poked at his left and right.
Xia Gallium's brain was g, and it seemed that it had been a long time before the so-called key points of the curator in the safety education class sounded: shoot to warn, don't kill, and release signal flares
He immediately drew his pistol and pointed it forward.
At this point, the nearest pikeman was only four meters away from him.
