Chapter 631: If you want to get rich, build a road first
The food that Su Tong asked people to send over can feed them for at least half a month.
But instead of sending all the food, he told them to pick it up once every three days.
It's already spring, but the weather is still a little cold, and the clothes on their bodies are very thin, and they have to burn charcoal if they want to sleep well at night.
Su Tong brought a few people from the city who could burn charcoal, and asked them to teach the villagers to burn the most basic charcoal, at least so that they could be self-sufficient.
If there is a surplus burned out, the men in black will collect it and sell it to them for money, which is also to help them have an additional source of income.
"What is the lord looking at?"
The Black Protector followed Su Tong out of the tiger camp and saw that Su Tong had been standing on the side of the road without moving.
Su Tong stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Tiankui City, and then looked at the entrance of the Northern Wasteland.
"You have to build a road."
Once you have your stomach filled, you can build some infrastructure.
She wanted to get it before, but she didn't move, mainly because the grain production planted at that time had not yet come up, so she didn't start such a big project, after all, building roads is laborious and laborious.
"What kind of road does the city lord want to build?"
There is no cement concrete here, so you can only use stones and stone bricks, the demand for these raw materials must be very large, it is difficult to draw from nature alone, she wondered if she could burn green bricks out, using green bricks as the main material.
Su Tong asked the Black Protector to be optimistic about the situation on the Tiger Camp's side, and she took people back to Tiankui City.
As for the matter of finding wasteland, it will continue to be handed over to Cheng Ming.
After a period of recuperation, Chu Yun's body was almost better.
Now some complicated chores in the city are still handed over to him to deal with.
After Su Tong returned to the city, he called Chu Yun over.
"See the Castle Lord."
Su Tong motioned for him to get up.
Chu Yun knew that Su Tong was fine, but he came over to him, "I don't know what the city lord commands?" ”
"I'm going to build a road in the Northern Wastelands, what do you think?"
Chu Yun was stunned for a moment, "Build a road? Where does the lord of the castle want to build from? ”
Su Tong took out the map of the Northern Wasteland and unfolded it on the table, "Where I drew the red line." ”
Chu Yun stepped forward and saw that the area where the red line was drawn was a bit wider......
"Why did the lord of the city think of building roads? Do you think the current road is not easy to follow? ”
Su Tong tapped his fingertips on the map, "In the past, I only thought that it would be almost like a place to settle down and live after I got here, but slowly developed to the present, since we have accommodated so many people here, we can't just let them go around in circles in this square inch, we must always develop and move forward, and resting on our laurels is not the way to develop." ”
Chu Yun was so smart, he understood what Su Tong meant as soon as he heard it, "The city lord wants people from outside to come and things inside to go out." ”
"Well, but the Northern Wilderness is so wild, and if there is no guiding path, it will be somewhat inconvenient."
If there is a road leading to the outside, then what they produce here will be better sold.
For the long-term development of the Northern Wasteland, she feels that it is still much more convenient to have a road.
Chu Yun pondered for a moment before saying, "I can understand what the city lord means, but this road is not so easy to build." ”
It requires a lot of workers and materials, which is a huge expense.
"Well, I know, it's not that all the roads will be built immediately, we can take our time, and start the section from Tiankui City to Tiger Camp first."
Chu Yun saw that Su Tong had made up his mind, and felt that this matter was indeed a good thing for them, so he said, "The city lord wants to explain this matter to others?" ”
Su Tong nodded, "You arrange it, and then go to the person who can burn the green bricks, and after you discuss it, you can prepare to start." ”
"Yes."
After several days of deliberation, the construction of the road was finalized.
Su Tong thought about building the road because now that the iron ore has begun to be dug, there will be a big road that will be more convenient for transportation.
If you want to pave the road with green bricks, you have to fire green bricks.
Su Tong personally led people to find a large vacant land and prepare to build a brick kiln.
You also have to get a lot of clay, which is an essential material for firing green bricks.
Su Tong asked Qiao Yang to take people to look for clay every day, the more the better, dig it back first and put it away, and then filter the clay into embryos when the kiln is ready.
On the other side, Zhou Wei also arrived at the border of the Jin Kingdom to join Lord Wang.
When Lord Wang saw Zhou Wei, he knelt down directly and pleaded guilty.
Lord Wang is Xie Rui's confidant, and he must have the responsibility that Xie Rui can't get rid of if something happens now, but now is not the time to hold him accountable, it's not too late to rescue people first and then settle accounts later.
"Third master, the little one has sent several waves of people to find out the news, but there is no definite news back so far, I only know that there is a big city in the Northern Wasteland, and His Highness is likely to be locked up in that city."
Zhou Wei took a sip of hot tea, and his brows were tangled in one place, "It's been so long, you haven't found out where His Highness is, it's just a wild place you can't deal with." ”
"Yes, it's a small incompetence and ask the third master to forgive his sins, before the little one thought it was a wild place without an owner, where did he dare to offend our Highness, who knew that it was these people who were not afraid of death, and they actually hijacked His Highness."
"What did you send them both times?"
Lord Wang took out the list sent by Su Tong.
After Zhou Wei saw it, he asked Lord Wang to prepare some cloth and food.
"What are you going to do?"
When he went to deliver something to the adults, he wanted people to take the opportunity to find out the news, but the people who sent it were discovered by the other party.
But other than that, they have no other way to penetrate the enemy.
"You prepare your things first, and I'll send someone to do the rest."
"Yes, yes, the small ones make people prepare."
Lord Wang did not dare to delay, and everything was prepared that night.
"You send a message over there, show favor to them, make them feel that we are afraid, afraid that Your Highness will be hurt, and it is okay to make your words clearer, just let them feel that they have pinched our sore spot now, and we have no choice but to let them be at their mercy."
Lord Wang didn't know what Zhou Wei did first, but he still did it honestly.
After receiving the message, the Green Protector was about to take it to Su Tong, but on the way, he ran into Qiao Yang who came to find Su Tong.
"Where are you going?"
Qiao Yang called out to the Green Protector.
The Green Protector had no expression on his face, and said formulaically: "See the city lord." ”
Qiao Yang glanced at the note in his hand, "Who sent it?" ”
The Green Protector didn't say anything, silently saying that he didn't want to pay attention to him.
"Why are you still this urine after so long, can you be a good person?"
