Chapter 316 Industrial Zone

Turning on the faucet and looking at the clear water flowing from it, it was not the first time that Eberson had used this thing, but he still sighed that this thing called tap water was really convenient.

It is said that Winterfell installed running water in every house, which is really ...... Extravagant behavior!

"Waterworks, power plants, barracks, ......"

Eberson, who came to Winterfell, currently lives in the top suites of the Winter Hotel, the servants and guards of the palace are currently arranged to live in the hotel, and the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards have set up a separate military camp on the periphery of the temporary camp.

David didn't care about the difference between nobles and commoners, but nobles didn't want to be crammed into camps with commoners, and these nobles had more or less some background, which led to a new business.

The nobles of the Tiran capital hired the workers of Winterfell and the Cybertrons, and then paid the great Mage Gianna Prodmore to teleport them back to the Tyran capital, where they could dig up their possessions buried in the ruins.

Hired workers, Cybertrons, and Archmage Gianna, who is in charge of teleportation, are all paid handsomely.

Nobles who regain some of their property will buy property directly in Winterfell.

After all, Winterfell had prepared a lot of new houses in advance, but there was no situation where nobles had money in hand but couldn't buy houses.

Even King Eberson approached Davy, hoping that he could send some Cybertrons to help transfer the various assets in his castle.

This also reminded David that there are many high-ranking aristocratic families who were completely killed in the explosion of the royal capital of Tiran, and all those assets have become ownerless, this is a windfall for nothing, there is no reason to let it go!

So the relatively idle Decepticons were arranged by David to dig up money, and the more temperamental Autobots were sent to help Elizabeth, the sheriff.

Although the commoners from the capital of King Tiran are still living in a temporary camp, the wealthy nobles have their own houses and officially live in Winterfell, and this group of people is also ignorant of the 'rules' of Winterfell, and they will cause a shock to law and order.

Because there are so many people......

"Is the population counted?"

Sitting in the office, across from him sat Weatherby-Swan, the administrative officer of Winterfell, whose main job at the moment was to settle the new residents.

"It's still counting, and I think Winterfell's government department needs to hire some extra people." Weatherby looked a little tired, but he didn't seem to be dissatisfied, but looked very energetic: "But according to the current data, the number of people who have migrated from the royal capital of Tiran will not be less than eighty thousand. ”

The arrival of a large population gave him the feeling of governing a real 'city', the population of Winterfell was so small that it was not at all challenging for Weatherby to manage a town with such a small population.

With the arrival of the population of the royal capital of Tiran, the population of Winterfell has skyrocketed many times, and the workload of various departments has also increased, and several departments in Winterfell have indeed needed to increase their staff.

David not only approved the proposal of the government department to increase the staff, but also approved the recruitment plan of the security department.

In addition, David ordered plans for the expansion of the waterworks.

The power plant is not left alone, the power plant using the Ark reactor will not need to be expanded in a short period of time, and by the time the power plant needs to be expanded, perhaps Winterfell has entered the interstellar age.

"The real question is how to solve the problem of the lives of nearly 100,000 people."

All to farm? It's not impossible, and with so many people cultivating the land, Winterfell must be 'diversified' and not all of them will grow the same crops.

Winterfell officials need to intervene in this regard, otherwise if the farmers were to choose their own crops, they would definitely give preference to the crops they were familiar with.

In addition to all kinds of grain and vegetables, we can develop a number of fruit farmers, followed by cotton planting and other industries.

"In addition, with enough population, the industrial zone plan can also be implemented."

It's not that David doesn't want to vigorously develop industry in Winterfell, but he really didn't have that condition before, and even the production line of the arsenal was barely filled, what factory do you expect to open?

Now that there are people, all kinds of factories can be opened.

Not only do these factories allow Winterfell to produce a wide variety of goods, but they also create a large number of jobs, providing income for a large number of civilians, ensuring their income needs and ensuring that they can continue to live in Winterfell.

"My lord, what factories are being built besides the steel mill?" The steel mill is always on the schedule, and there is no need to ask any more questions.

"Clothing, shoes, socks, beds, bedding, etc." At present, Winterfell's clothing, bedding and other products are still in the relatively 'primitive' hand-made era.

In the early days, it was distributed uniformly, and all kinds of materials were purchased from other worlds.

Will existing shops be impacted?

Actually, no, because the products produced by the factory are mass-produced on the premise of ensuring the basic quality of the products.

This kind of mass-produced clothing, the aristocracy is likely to look down on it, and it is produced to ensure the needs of ordinary people, and the price of the product will not be too high, ensuring that everyone can afford it.

The same is true for bedding and other items, so that with plenty of food and comfortable and warm houses, the basic needs of the residents are guaranteed.

At that time, it is time to consider building more factories to meet the other needs of the people, such as bicycle factories or even car factories?

After chatting with Weatherby for a long time, Davy didn't even have time to get up and leave his chair when Gareth Stanton came in again.

"What's the matter?"

Gareth was naturally a military matter, but Winterfell hasn't had any military operations lately, right? Although the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment was still sweeping the northern plains with orcs, it was Megatron who was in charge of the work, not Gareth Stanton.

After going out for a walk, the Winter Knights continued their slow expansion work, and by the way, they also kept an eye on the soldiers who had come from the royal capital of Tiran to make sure they didn't make trouble.

Thinking of this, David suddenly guessed why Gareth was looking for him.

"My lord, what should I do with the army of the royal capital of Tiran, including the Knights of Tiran?"

“……”

It sounds like dealing with prisoners of war, and while the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards are not prisoners of war, the current situation does not seem to be any different.

Especially the part of the nobles' personal guards, this group of troops was directly controlled, even if some of the nobles expressed dissatisfaction, David did not have the slightest intention of backing down: either take your guards and roll out of Winterfell, if you want to live in Winterfell, you have to abide by the rules here.

What are the rules? Of course, if the lord says that there are rules, there are rules!

The lords of Winterfell are the gods who resurrect them and give them new life, and these nobles are not stupid enough to dare to argue with David, which is why the nobles' personal guards are honestly subject to vaccination management.

But this is not a long-term solution, and the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards can't be left outside the city to watch over forever, right?

"Do you have any ideas?"

"Reorganize into a Winter Army."

These are the most elite soldiers of the Kingdom of Tiran, especially the Knights of Tiran, these knights have been trained from a very young age, using potions and spells to ensure that they are constantly able to break through the limits, so they are very physically strong.

Coupled with the fact that they themselves know all kinds of combat skills, as well as have extremely high military literacy and obedience, with a little training, they can learn to use the weapons and equipment of Winterfell, and they can immediately become another powerful legion.

The other troops, although not as good as the two major knights, were also stronger than ordinary civilians.

Gareth didn't want to see such a large group of high-quality soldiers wasted, but it would be difficult to get permission to reorganize the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards.

"I'll have dinner with His Majesty later, and I'll talk to him about it then." David thought about it, the situation of the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards is special, but the noble guards, the garrison of the royal capital, and the ordinary soldiers of the light and heavy infantry regiments can be directly integrated: "The Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards will not care about it first, and the other troops will be pulled to the barracks for reorganization." ”

"What if there are those who are unwilling to accept the reorganization?"

"They are military men and must obey orders." David wouldn't get used to these guys, especially now that they're coming to Winterfell en masse: "If you don't meet your needs, but have a good personality and integrity, send them to Sheriff Elizabeth Swan." ”

As for those who can't meet their needs, personality and professionalism? David will still give these people a chance: they can choose a new career on their own, and the officials will give them some help, and they can still live well in Winterfell as long as they work hard.

If you have to come out on the whole day...... David is going to build an industrial zone next, and even if there are digging tigers, he won't mind having more coolies on the construction site.

"I know what to do."

Gareth left with the order, he would be in charge of the reorganization work with Freud, and as for the number of the reorganized army, if there was no accident, it would be directly named the Winter Legion.

This should be the largest legion in Winterfell and, if all goes well, it will be the unit that will take on the vast majority of military missions.

After all, both the Winter Knights and the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment are the ace troops of Winterfell, and they will only appear on important battlefields in the future.

Gareth was full of anticipation for the future, and after leaving Fort Glamorgan, he approached Floyd to discuss the reorganization plan.

However, as soon as he and Freud began to discuss, they were summoned by the lord again, and he was also tasked with leading a team of Winter Knights to the south to determine the situation of Marquise Lana Tilland and Earl Sutton Stewart.
