Grain was first auctioned out, then clothes, then building materials, such as bricks, tiles, wood, etc., then bedding, mosquito nets, soaphorns, wooden barrels, flat poles, and finally all kinds of daily utensils, such as pots and pans, chopsticks, needles and threads, scissors, firewood, and all other things that a family needs, all bought a large number of things for Zhang Zhongjun, a wealthy guy.

Those bidders were still scrambling to swallow all the orders at first, but later they smiled bitterly one by one, and busily encouraged others to swallow the orders, because in the back, there were many kinds of orders, but the number was not much.

For example, 20,000 iron pots, this is a very fat business, but 20,000 Xiuhua needles make people very helpless.

But it's okay, naturally there will be chambers of commerce to make these small profits and quick turnover, so all the orders thrown out by Zhang Zhongjun have been picked up, and they will be sent immediately when the delivery time is set. Of course, some vegetables, chickens, ducks and fish, although the order is large, is also agreed to be delivered in batches.

In addition to packing all the materials needed by 20,000 households, Zhang Zhongjun also purchased a large number of live poultry such as cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, cats and dogs.

Then, Zhang Zhongjun went to Qianzhuang to take out a large amount of silver tickets, gave a deposit first, and then led everyone out to wait outside the city gate.

Although these chambers of commerce are not very powerful chambers of commerce, since they can hook up with the government and the Yaxing, they must be at the level of the head snake, so Zhang Zhongjun and his gang did not wait long, and a series of carriages and ox carts loaded with materials drove out of the city gate under the drive of the business bank.

After a lot of effort to return to Zhang Zhongjun's territory, Zhang Zhongjun couldn't understand how his ten-square-kilometer territory was divided, but there was definitely no problem with Eagle's Beak Bend as the center, so these materials were piled up a few hundred meters away from Eagle's Beak Bend.

Then the hired craftsmen naturally began to measure the ground, check the condition of the groundwater, and survey the fertile state of the surrounding land, and finally reported the design results to Zhang Zhongjun.

It was similar to what Zhang Zhongjun saw when he inspected the territory before, using the eagle's beak bend as a wharf, and then extending out to build a village, and the farmland was semi-surrounded by the village and the eagle's beak bend.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with his previous estimate, Zhang Zhongjun naturally nodded in approval, and then the craftsmen naturally began to get busy.

Don't look at the number of 20,000 households, it seems to be a lot, but it is the same thing for these skilled workers, anyway, now Zhang Zhongjun himself does not know where the boundary of the territory is, that is, there is no restriction of the wall, and the craftsmen work more easily.

The first is to demarcate the location of the lord's mansion, this endless flat land, this lord's mansion can only be built near the dock, so that the lord's mansion has the pattern of guarding the dock and guarding the village at the same time.

Then there is the temple opposite the lord's house, which is the center of the villagers' play, and then the temple is divided into a crossroads, and 20,000 houses are built around this cross.

Similarly, a large number of craftsmen were busy building all kinds of necessary buildings for houses and villages, as well as other facilities, such as cattle pens, stables, sheep pens, chicken coops, etc., such as sun-grain ping, such as temple streets, such as water wells, and so on.

There is also a vote, or even more manpower in the construction of Zhang Zhongjun's lord's mansion, this area is very vast, and in order to highlight the height of the lord's mansion, but also artificially filled in the three-meter-high foundation, and then paved with bluestone, bluestone wall, anyway, how to be strong, of course, how gorgeous how to come, how spacious how to come.

Looking at the lord's mansion that has been busy for so long, and there are several times more craftsmen than building houses, Zhang Zhongjun shrugged, I am afraid that all the facilities have been completed, and the shell of his lord's mansion has not been made. But it doesn't matter, this is where you live for a long time, the better you do, and it doesn't matter if you slow down. As for the money and food that needs to be spent? Zhang Zhongjun, who was holding a passbook as a fan, said that we are not short of money!

In addition to these two complexes, a large number of craftsmen came by boat to Eagle's Beak Bend to survey the water, survey the environment, and then begin to lay the foundations and start building the dock port.

Wharves can be easily built, but ports are not so simple, because wharves only need a wooden stack to connect the ships to the shore. But the port, there is no lighthouse, there is no bluestone paved deep-water wharf, it is embarrassing to say that it is a port.

However, although building a port is definitely much more troublesome than building a lord's mansion, the time, money, manpower and material resources consumed are definitely many times that of the lord's mansion.

But whether it was Zhang Zhongjun or his retainers, they were all full of joy and watched the money being spent, and they didn't feel distressed at all. Because as long as you are not an idiot, you know what kind of benefits a port can bring to a place.

The small wharves in the water forest area can bring endless wealth to the entire water forest area, not to mention the port of this aristocratic territory.

So now that we spend more, we will not have a trace of reluctance, but some look forward to spending more and better weird mentality, because the more money and food a port spends, the more perfect and magnificent the port is, and the more it can make money!

Zhang Zhongjun was busy waiting for the scar-faced field army officer to arrive again, he didn't expect his men to arrive earlier than Scarface, but to Zhang Zhongjun's surprise, it was only on the third day that had just been agreed, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves came from a distance.

Originally, everyone thought that the people were coming, but looking at the thickness of the dust and smoke of the horses, it didn't look like they were leading 15,000 households, but no matter how you looked at it, there were only nearly 1,000 cavalry.

When this cavalry rushed in front of Zhang Zhongjun, everyone was pleasantly surprised, and immediately ordered the hired servants to hurry up and prepare drinking water, and hurriedly led people to greet these cavalrymen.

Because these tired cavalrymen are all Zhang Zhongjun's retainers, they have reached the point where they are one man and three horses, and most of the retainers of more than 300 people do not know how to ride horses.

After they were untied and helped off the horse, all their thighs were ground into flesh and blood, which naturally made the doctors who were originally in charge of the craftsman's medical treatment too busy, and Zhang Zhongjun asked people to drive the carriage to Guangnan Mansion to hire a doctor to solve them.
