186 Pioneering progress
Having completed all the tasks they had come to, they flew back to France early the next morning, and then took the train to the winery in Burgundy.
After spending a day arranging the rest of the work, Liang En left the modern world and traveled to the ancient world with the illusion gem and a batch of supplies.
Unlike the previous ships that were in a moored state, when Liang En came out of the space gate this time, his sailboat floating in the vast sea, even if there was a lamp god to maintain the position of the ship, was now at least two kilometers away from the previous position.
Fortunately, the lantern gods on the ship received Liang En's order as soon as he appeared in this world, and then the ship he was manipulating joined Liang En, who flew towards the ship.
"It's time to go back." Glancing at the Hokkaido fishing ground reconnaissance record in the cabin, Liang En nodded with satisfaction, and then directed the ship towards Anbei City.
When he came to Anbei City again, he found that the city was much more lively than before, and people began to move among the houses that had been built in advance.
In addition, there is also a sand ship moored on the dock, which is obviously from the mainland, and it does not seem to be a large tonnage, it should be a merchant ship that has come to this colony to try trade.
In fact, an hour later, Liang En, who entered the city, met with this merchant surnamed Mi from the Qingnipu Chamber of Commerce in the inner city of the city lord's fortress.
Compared with other large chambers of commerce, this chamber of commerce in the northern port of Qingnipu is only a small chamber of commerce, with only more than 20 small and medium-sized merchants and six ships.
Five of the six ships were small offshore vessels, and only this sand boat, known as the Lishunhe, was able to sail the open sea, and from this point of view, the other party dared to sail the only ocean-going vessel here with enough adventurous spirit.
For such a warrior, Liang En was naturally willing to give him some help, for example, in addition to some local furs, bones, horns, all kinds of mountain goods, and a large pile of salted fish, Liang En also agreed to sell him a batch of loot that he had previously captured in the south.
Considering that the other party did not have much money, Liang En chose to sign a loan agreement with the other party, allowing the other party to use credit to buy a part of the previously seized loot from his own hands.
On the one hand, this is because the other party is the first businessman to take the initiative to come here, so he feels that he can use the other party as a target to promote his territory and attract more businessmen to come.
On the other hand, he also admires the courage of the other party, and believes that people with this courage will definitely have great achievements in the future, so showing friendship to the other party now can be regarded as an early investment.
"Mr. Liang, thank you for your love for me." After hearing that Liang En had made the decision to sell the loot to himself, the merchant, who was known to everyone as Mi Yuanwai, saluted him.
"I promise to sell this shipment from the North Sea Island for a good price, let everyone know that this is a good place, and bring as much as I can next time I need something here-"
"What do you think of this guy?" After the Mi Yuan respectfully left, Liang En asked at the back of the room, and in the next second, a secret door at the back of the room was opened, and then Ao Lei walked out.
"That guy is a little slippery, but as a businessman, he can do it against someone in a high position like you, who is even richer than he is."
"If I had to say, I would be inclined to this person available. It's just that if you want to thoroughly determine the level of the other party, you probably need to do a business for a period of time, but it is difficult to judge the situation of the other party if you have one or two orders. ”
Ao Lei can score at least 70 points on the external rating of this rice player, after all, no one is perfect, and people who can do not have problems in the general direction can use it, especially this kind of person who is willing to cooperate with him.
"That's pretty much what I judged." After listening to Ao Lei's judgment, Liang En nodded. He knew that there was no situation in this world where a group of people would bow down as soon as they were shaken by the spirit of a king, and for strangers, the connection of interests was more reliable.
In the next few days, Liang En and Ao Lei inspected all the development sites, especially the newly developed ones, and from the overall situation, these development sites are quite good.
In terms of population, after recovering the land of Yingzhou in the south, recruiting a series of aborigines and transporting more immigrants, he now ruled over more than 10,000 people, of which more than half were immigrants from the Central Plains.
The reason why so many immigrants were able to pour in at once was because the official had recently organized an immigration team, and Liang En's previous contributions allowed him to get the right of priority recommendation.
These teams are mainly composed of retired soldiers from various front-line military camps in the north and volunteers from some areas, and this group of immigrants is more trained in survival and more likely to survive in such inhospitable places than ordinary immigrants.
If it weren't for food security, Liang En set the upper limit of this year's population rule at between 10,000~12,000 people, and he might have 15,000 people under his command now.
With the influx of population, a series of supporting facilities have gradually been established, because Liang En has determined the development plan in the modern world before, so even if Liang En is not there, the whole construction process seems to be in order.
One after another fortified settlements sprung up on those lands, and during this time, the mountain ghosts finally found a suitable place for themselves to set up camp and went collectively to the mountains and forests more than 70 kilometers northeast of Anbei City.
Of course, these mountain ghosts did not hide themselves in the mountains and forests, but integrated into the current economic system of the island, such as the mountain goods that were used for trading in the past, they collected and planted them.
As for the most important farm, it was not left behind in this round of construction, and as the core part of the development work, the farm was even earlier than most of the buildings.
This is certainly not a bad thing, at least when the temperature is right to start planting, the island has successfully completed the spring planting and sown the modern seeds certified by shamans and the forces of nature.
Now, a few months later, potatoes, wheat, rye, beans and a range of vegetables are growing well, not as well as the modern world with fertilizers, but they are also lush.
According to the results of the Ao Lei organization's manpower statistics, if the crops planted now can be harvested successfully, they will meet the food needs of at least 25,000 people for a whole year.
Liang En is very satisfied with these achievements, and what makes him even more satisfied is the development of the cave space as a backup.
As planned, a large amount of land was cleared up and planted with a variety of tropical crops, but unlike those crops, which took more time to harvest.
Tutu also opened up 30 acres of elixir garden and 50 acres of ordinary medicine garden in the most elite part of the entire cave space, and planted various medicinal materials, but if you want to harvest it, it will take more time.
Fortunately, as his cultivation gradually deepened, Liang En now had enough time and patience to allow him to wait for the day when the entire Cave Heaven Exploration would be rewarded.
