Xiao Lang'er found Li Fugui, He Meng, Qian Wanshi and Windsor to discuss the future development, and they came to the highest mountain on Butterfly Island and pointed downward. Then see the topography of the mountain top is very flat, Xiao Langer has an idea, here to build a huge statue of the god of the sea, carved with white marble, this statue of the god of the sea should be a gentle female image, just like Guanyin Bodhisattva, respected by the world, after all, there are many legends of the goddess Mazu along the coast of the Ming Dynasty, here can become a place of spiritual sustenance for the islanders, so that the islanders have a sense of belonging, a sense of security, because of the blessing of the god of the sea, this is a kind of faith, there is a cohesion, convenient for the rule of the island, the islanders on the island used to be pirates, lawless, lawless, first use religious beliefs to control them, so to speak, my little Lang'er is the spokesperson of the sea god, and whoever wants to live on the island must obey my leadership.
"Commanders, there are so many things we have to do, only one by one, and we are currently going to expand Butterfly Island. ”
"Now the situation is getting better and better, the speed of development is beyond imagination, we only want to build Butterfly Island well, I didn't expect to go outside and walk around, we occupy a lot of islands, so the construction of Butterfly Island has become the top priority, my opinion is to make Butterfly Island a political, cultural and economic center, so to build more buildings, need to expand. 100 houses will be built, which can be rented out or sold to the islanders, and the Ministry of Marine, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Fisheries, the Ministry of Money and Commerce.
Expand my Hou Ye's mansion into a castle, built according to the shape of the mountain, for ten years, supervised by Fugui, hire some skilled craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty and the West, adopt a combination of Chinese and Western architectural styles, I am ready to invest a million taels to build the most majestic castle in the East, the roof is designed as a spire and a dome, to be gilded, and the golden light can be seen from afar on the sea.
Sanitation of public places, the establishment of public toilets, no open defecation, no littering, once found, mandatory service on the island for a week, each residence should have a flush toilet, connected to the underground drainage works below, there are often heavy rains at sea, resulting in the crossflow of stagnant sewage, do a good job of drainage and anti-pollution engineering, pay attention to the cleanliness of the island and nearby waters.
Cultural facilities, the establishment of commercial and sailor schools, the establishment of science and technology research laboratories, and the recruitment of highly skilled personnel to participate in teaching and research, with the aim of training merchants and captains and providing talents for future career development. So to build a school in a secluded place, Windsor and Harrens can be the principal and teachers, and our businessmen will have to deal with Westerners in the future, and need to know the languages of Western countries, and open English, French, Dutch, Spanish, so that we can better do business or communicate with them in the future.
The Firearms Improvement Research and Development Division, headed by the Dutchman Pete, hopes to train some high-level gunners to develop better flintlock pistols and more powerful guns by combining the strengths of the Ming Dynasty and Western guns.
Establish a good medical system, led by Gu Qingqing and Dr. Lu, bring some famous doctors from the inland to solve the problems of patients on the island, stock up on medicine, and save lives, which can improve the survival rate of injured sailors.
These are all facilities to be built, and the cost is estimated to be high, but it also drives employment in the interior, employing a number of unsettled masonry, doctors, skilled farmers and carpenters and blacksmiths to the island, which requires thousands of people to feed their families.
Starting tomorrow, we can go to the port cities to recruit these laborers, especially skilled workers, we can also recruit ordinary farmers, each island can recruit a hundred people, a total of more than 10,000 people, they can build islands, logging, level the land, grow grain, fish, so that we can solve the problem of feeding more than 10,000 people, this matter will be sent to the detective department to do, and after recruitment, we will use our ships to transport to various islands.
The preparation of building materials, can not excavate building materials on Butterfly Island, except for the construction site must be excavated and cut down resources, other places must not be destroyed, need resources can go to the interior of the Ming Dynasty to buy stones, bricks, wood and some necessary tools, first build the infrastructure, my castle can be slowed down first, and then build after the infrastructure is done.
So many laborers have to eat, a lot of food every day, at present it is not enough to rely on the resources of the island, we must rely on the sea to eat the sea, each island must send people to fish, to meet the needs of the island, it is best to catch whales and sharks such as large marine fish, their oil can also provide clean energy, provide us with lighting, will not pollute the surrounding environment.
A whale weighs more than 30 tons, and catching one is enough to eat for a long time, so we need to recruit skilled fishermen, preferably whale hunters, and we recruit 30 whalers, which can basically provide us with a source of food and provide light for the slow and long night, so that we don't have to be scorched by the fire.
Do you see the everlasting light in the Lord's Mansion? That's the fish oil I brought back, it burns all the time, it provides light, and it's not afraid of the wind and rain. Xiao Lang'er spoke in detail, specific to the location of the construction, how much area to build.
After saying this, let Li Fugui and He Meng go down, Xiao Lang'er took Windsor to sit on a boulder, stroking her belly, "Little guy, don't listen to disobedience, don't make your mother uncomfortable." He lowered his head to listen to the ringing in his stomach. "What are you anxious about? It's only been more than three months. Windsor sneered.
"I'm thinking, you're blonde, I'm brunette, I don't know what color this little guy came out of, but I still want him to have blonde hair like yours. Xiao Lang'er stroked Windsor's belly and said kindly.
"I think black hair is not bad, you look at you, it's like a black horse, I don't know how many women like it. Windsor looked at Xiao Lang'er, her royal blue eyes glowed softly, Xiao Lang'er kissed her red lips, kissing her heartbeat, "Don't do this, I'm afraid of the fetal gas, you go find other ladies." Windsor quickly pushed him away, afraid that he would be too intense.
Xiao Lang'er took Windsor's hand, slowly walked down the mountain, towards his own island owner's mansion, I used to think that the island owner's mansion was very big, expanded it, but I didn't expect it to be small, and it was not enough grade, according to Windsor's description, some of their earls and dukes' castles are very spectacular, there are very spacious green lawns, white marble sculptures, and fountains, surrounded by high city walls, there are many buildings in it, which can allow thousands of people to live in it, just the hall can accommodate hundreds of people to drink and dance, the floor inside can shine out of the shadows, the air exudes fragrance, and the maids are wearing luxurious clothes, holding a golden plate, which is served with all kinds of wine glasses and snacks and fruits, this is the life that a nobleman should enjoy, the previous life is like a nouveau riche, there is no grade, in the future, we must slowly improve the taste of life, food, clothing, housing and transportation must use the best, even the toilet should also use the kind of toilet in the Ming court, silver, there is mercury in it, and the mercury is covered with velvet, without a little smell. In addition, there should be a cooling setting in the palace, collect ice cubes and hide them in the ice cellar in winter, and put them around the palace in the summer when it is hot, so that it will be very cool.
As a Hou Ye, I want to live like this, so that I can be high-grade and tasteful, Xiao Lang'er is looking forward to a change in his life and a comfortable and happy life.
