Chapter 170: The Parliament of the Far East
readx;? After this incident, the entire Demon Beast Mountain suffered a heavy blow, and it was impossible to recover in a few years. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
During this time, they need to rely on the Blackwater River for food support, otherwise the orcs will have to tighten their belts and starve.
Although the grain production in the Heishui River region is still insufficient, the largest grain producing area in the entire Far East is in the Longxi Valley, which is a natural granary.
But through frequent maritime trade, a steady stream of grain was unloaded from ships to the port's storage area.
The young Duke was almost paranoid about hoarding grain, and even though the construction of the town was completed, the granary was still being built.
This directly led to the rise in grain prices in several nearby ports, and the grain merchants made a lot of money.
But the Duke was still not satisfied with this, and directly booked the grain of several major grain merchants for the next five years.
These grain merchants ridiculed a fool, why are you buying so much grain?
They are also happy to make a lot of money.
Only Lin Ye himself knew that during the war years, only grain and iron tools were hard currency.
He was preparing for war all the time, and these grain merchants thought they had made a fortune?
Compared with the cargo ships shipped out of Blackwater Port, the profit of grain is simply insignificant, it is simply a world of difference!
The Monster Mountain began a long reconstruction, and at Lin Ye's suggestion, the orcs chose a new site near the mine.
According to preliminary statistics, there are 26 proven mines in Warcraft Mountain, and Six Feet has organized a survey team to conduct surveys in Warcraft Mountain.
In order to make up for the debt to the orcs, the king of the forest confined the monsters in the monster mountain.
And it was agreed that Warcraft and orcs and humans were not allowed to attack each other, and Lin Ye promised not to destroy the life and living environment of Warcraft.
In return, the King of the Forest allowed some of the beasts to join the orc army, provided that the orcs were able to domesticate them.
It's also a long process.
The proven mines include gold, silver, coal, iron, and gem mines, all of which were coveted by human rulers in the past, but are now in the hands of Lin Ye.
He kept his temper and did not mine these minerals.
After all, the distance is too far away, and the cost of transportation is too high.
Moreover, in terms of their current mining efficiency, they can't even mine the minerals in the Heishui River area, and they don't care about the Warcraft Mountain area at all.
Moreover, now that Monster Mountain has just suffered such a drastic change, if he does something about the resources in this area.
This will inevitably attract the displeasure of the orcs.
He put the mining schedule ahead of the railroad.
Anyway, it will take time for the orcs to rebuild, and he will send craftsmen into the Monster Mountain one after another to help the orcs rebuild their homes.
The large number of orc children he took away also shows the sincerity of the orcs of Warcraft Mountain.
After this tragic change, they also realized that it is difficult for future generations to continue the tradition alone, and some kind of change must be made!
When Lin Ye solved the situation in Warcraft Mountain and returned to the Heishui River, the steam engine developed by Eight Feet ushered in a major breakthrough again.
By this time he had already made a sample of the steam engine.
This time, he learned the lessons of the last time and made many improvements under Lin Ye's suggestion.
After the actual effect of the experiment, Lin Ye was excited, and he immediately began to pave the road.
Unlike the previous carriage lanes, this time he was going to lay railroad tracks.
After several months of operation, the furnace was able to produce high-quality steel, which could be welded using the magic of the Fire Crystal.
The railway track planning map of the Heishui River area has already been released, and with the survey of Warcraft Mountain, the planning of Warcraft Mountain has also been put on the agenda.
Laying the railroad tracks was also a protracted project.
With the addition of two steel mills in Linye and the use of steam engines as a new driving force, the overall productivity of the Heishui River area will surely rise to a new level.
At the same time, the paper mill began to enter the stage of mass production.
After repeated research, the paper is excellent in terms of quality and fineness.
The first batch of paper has already been sent to cargo ships and is ready to be shipped overseas to test the market.
And the various raw materials that Ababa procured from overseas also played their due role.
For example, Lin Ye mastered the glass firing technology.
The craftsmen were experimenting in the factory, and the young Duke opened a window for them to see, and when they were clever, they were able to open the door and get a glimpse of the whole inside.
It won't be long before this closed technology from the West Sea will be broken by him.
It should be even more beautiful and more diverse.
Several porcelain kilns also fired at the same time, and Lin Ye did not ask them to be able to fire the ingenious effects of various official kilns.
Even if it was of an ordinary standard, it was enough for it to replace silverware as the tableware of the aristocracy.
The Blackwater Fishery, run by fishermen from Xinghuo Village, led by Xia Lana, is staggeringly productive.
The variety of fish produced far exceeds the domestic demand of the Heishui River region.
In order to solve the problem of fishery surplus, Lin Ye set up a canning processing factory to process fresh fish into various canned fish and store it in warehouses.
The soldier who was wounded in Warcraft Mountain quit the army and entered the factory as a militiaman to learn technology.
New young people poured into the army for training.
In the case that the armor's defense is already outstanding enough, Lin Ye still requires both toughness and hardness to be improved.
He bought weapons from all over the world from overseas and used them as imaginary enemies.
Attracted by the Far East, more and more adventurers were attracted to it, including many craftsmen.
After blending foreign technology, the smelting technology of Heishui River is more mature.
Plus there are so many ores as raw materials.
It's a paradise for blacksmiths to unleash their creativity and strive for excellence!
But what Lin Ye values most is neither the smelting industry, nor the mining industry, nor even the brewing industry.
It's education!
The brand-new school began to teach, scholars, miners, blacksmiths, mathematicians, etc. from all over the world gave lectures, and new textbooks were being compiled, and Lin Ye occasionally came to the classroom to give lectures.
Seeing the hairy heads in the classroom, the orc students yawned and became listless.
They're thinking about the soccer ball out there.
However, under the teacher's reprimand, he could only obediently go to the ninety-nine multiplication table.
They are the hope of the Far East and the pillars that will support the vast land of the future!
It's just that they don't know it at this time.
After returning to the Heishui River area for a month, Lin Ye had to leave again.
It's not like anything bad happened this time, if he comes every once in a while, he will have to be broken sooner or later.
This time there was something very special.
The biennial Far Eastern Parliament is about to be held.
The little duke, who had never been invited to the meeting before, will participate in the Far Eastern Council this time as a representative of the Heishui River and Warcraft Mountain! )
