Chapter 390 Food, clothing, shelter and transportation, all-round development
Regarding the development of Quel'Salas and the territory, the barrage gives Salian a lot of advice.
No matter what Sarean wants to do, he first needs to have money in hand.
If you have money, you can buy all kinds of resources, recruit corresponding talents, and roll out the predetermined plan faster.
The business of magic wine was established by Salian in order to make money.
This tasteful method of mana absorption was loved by the Quel'Salas elite, and as the mana continued to sell, a lot of wealth flowed into Unicorn Village, paving the way for more plans to follow.
Speaking of paving, it is just the right time to lead to the next plan proposed by the barrage.
[If you want to get rich, build roads first!] γ
[At present, the cost of the stone avenue in Quel'Salas is too high, and only the main road that runs through the Yongge Forest is paved with a smooth official road, which is not conducive to the flexible movement of the army. γ
[I have two treasures, called cement and asphalt, if they are used to pave roads, they can significantly reduce the cost of road construction and connect all the towns in the Yongge Forest more efficiently. γ
"Cement? Bitumen? β
Sitting in the office of the lord's mansion in Unicorn Village, Sarian folded his hands on the table, his eyes deep and thoughtful, in fact, his energy was focused on communicating with the barrage.
[The simple version of cement is easy to make, and the materials only need limestone, iron ore, water, and clay, which are not difficult to obtain. γ
[The concrete made from this new material is very strong and can be widely used to build roads and houses. γ
[If you add steel bars to the concrete, it can also greatly improve the stability and hardness of the building, which can be used to build fortresses. γ
[Asphalt is a product in the petroleum processing process, which requires a more complex refining process, and the craftsmen of the High Elves may spend some time researching. γ
[In our world, asphalt is often used for paving roads, and it is both beautiful and practical, and it is more widely used than cement in paving roads. γ
Sarren's mind was full of question marks: "I know limestone and clay, and what is oil?" Are you sure Azeroth has such a thing? β
[Yes, there is a large amount of open-pit oil in Angolo Crater, which is a natural non-renewable resource with a wide range of uses, which is frantically scrambling by various countries in our world, and has always had the title of "black gold", which is a very important strategic resource. γ
Oil is not only found in the Angolo Ring, but also in the overseas Kozan Islands. γ
[In addition, there are underground crude oils in the Barrens, Durotal, Ash Valley, Pandalia and many other places, and they need to be extracted from the ground by some special mechanical creations. γ
[It's too early to say that underground oil is being extracted, so I suggest taking the Angolo Crater first, where open-pit oil is produced.] γ
[You dreamed, Angolo Crater is Freya's large ecological laboratory, and it is likely that you will offend this Titan Guardian by scribbling the territory indiscriminately. γ
[That...... Stealthily mined? γ
[Feasible, but there is still a problem.] γ
[Angolo Crater is far away in Kalimdor, too far away from the core control area of the High Elves, how to convince the Sun King to cross the ocean to Kalimdor to extract oil?] γ
[Hmm...... Anastria is unlikely to agree, and will have to wait until Kael'thas takes the throne. γ
[Then do cement first? γ
[Get it up! Somehow pave the road from Unicorn Village to Zuaman, Camp Wanderer, and Taquilin, the dirt road is too grassy and becomes a muddy pond when it rains. γ
Salian knows this well.
Quel'Salas is spring-like all year round, with good weather and rain, and there are many rainy times throughout the year.
Once it rains heavily, the roads in the forest become muddy and difficult to navigate.
Salian himself could turn into a bird of prey and fly through the sky, but the magic wine produced by his family needed to be transported to the surrounding towns through caravans, and the goods needed by the residents also needed to be transported from outside by caravans, and the circulation of goods would obviously be hindered if the roads were not repaired first.
The barrage has already given the idea of solving the problem and the final answer, and Salian only needs to follow the homework.
As a lord, Salian doesn't need to do everything himself, as long as he assigns specific affairs after laying the framework, there will naturally be the following grassroots officials to follow up.
In any world, the basic conditions that people seek are nothing more than food, clothing, shelter and transportation.
There is no need for barrage and Sarean to waste much time in terms of clothes.
Azeroth, especially Quel'Thalas, was not bad at designing clothes, and the High Elf nobles were dressed in the most gorgeous costumes.
From linen, cotton, and silk to expensive magic patterns, rune cloth, and more, there is not much room for improvement.
Food, Quel'Salas has never been lacking, and Salian has never heard of anyone going hungry except during the special period when he was invaded by the tribe.
But Azeroth's food is not varied, and it can't be compared to the otherworldly powers known as the Empire on the Tip of the Tongue.
SalΓ©an never wanted to scrape oil and water from the poor, and for those nobles who never got tired of eating, delicious food was also one of the eternal pursuits.
Regarding this point, the barrage also gave a lot of suggestions, and some people even listed a luxurious banquet recipe called Manchu Han Quanxi, which really opened Saren's eyes.
The study of recipes is given to the chef in the lord's mansion by Sarjan, who will also assist them with the intelligent butler Emma.
If there is something delicious, of course, you should enjoy it yourself.
Salian is not an ascetic, and he didn't have that condition to venture out in the past.
Now that I've returned to my hometown and have the opportunity to taste food and wine, why should I be myself?
Once the chefs of the Lord's Mansion had learned the recipes provided by the barrage, Saljan planned to have them teach another batch of apprentices.
These apprentices will disperse to various towns in Silvermoon City and Yongge Forest to open restaurants, gradually making Unicorn Village a food town and attracting more wealthy people to come and spend.
Housing, this aspect is linked to the cement mentioned before the barrage, and houses built with reinforced concrete are inexpensive and durable.
Now that the Unicorn Village is still expanding, Salian plans to use cement as a new material for the subsequent construction of houses, and is also preparing to take time to update the lord's mansion and the original houses.
On the other hand, cement, a new material monopolized by the Deep Shadow family, can also generate income for the Deep Shadow Earldom, and Salian believes that many people will be interested in cement.
Yes, the road is paved to facilitate the road.
In addition to this, Sarena also intends to improve the existing carriage by introducing the spring concept mentioned in the barrage.
The spring can effectively reduce the bumpiness of the carriage when traveling, improve the ride comfort, and avoid some fragile and valuable goods from being broken on the road.
In addition, springs can also be used in a variety of industrial equipment, and are an important component.
There is a lot of work to be assigned in each of the four categories of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and it is difficult to take care of all aspects of the Unicorn Village with the existing manpower.
In view of this, Sarean issued a recruitment decree in the name of the lord in the realm, and spread the news to the whole of Quel'Salas through the traveling merchants.
"Whew~"
Initially assigning the work, Salian leaned back in his chair and let out a sigh.
Stellagossa, who was temporarily the secretary, was a little distressed and took the initiative to walk behind Salian and help him massage his stiff shoulders.
"Such a complicated thing, it will definitely not be able to be completed by the existing manpower of the county alone, don't force yourself, first recruit enough manpower and then spread it out step by step."
Salian closed his eyes and smiled: "I know, I am a hand-shaking lord, only responsible for providing development ideas, and the subsequent practical operations will be handed over to the people below." β
"Being busy means being busy for a few days, as long as I share the work, I can find time to rest."
"That's right."
Sarjan suddenly remembered something: "What about Tina? β
Stella Gossa chuckled and shook her head: "That girl slipped away after completing today's study task, and she should be playing crazy in the village with Gianna at this time." β
When Kael'thas returned home, he was so busy preparing for the enthronement ceremony that he couldn't spare time to mentor Gianna.
Originally, Kael'thas had planned to leave Gianna in the care of the archmages of the Royal Arcane Society for the time being.
However, in order to prevent them from instilling strange ideas in Gianna, Kael'thas decided to send his apprentice to Unicorn Village after some consideration, where he was taught by Stella Gosa, who had risen to become a legend.
Stella Gosa was going to teach Tiny Tina that one sheep is also herded, and two sheep are also herded, and it doesn't matter if there is a curious baby with many questions, it just allows them to roll up with each other, further stimulating the enthusiasm of the two to learn.
"Heh~" Sarian tapped his finger on the table with a funny smile: "Let them go, Tina don't mention it, Gianna, who has received elite education since childhood, will be measured." β
"Knock knock~"
There was a sudden knock on the door, and Stella Gosa consciously put down her massaging hands and stepped aside, and Sarren sat up straight.
"Come in."
"Click~"
The office door opened, and Emma, the smart housekeeper, walked in first.
"Master, there are two self-proclaimed ......"
"My little ~Sa~Ray~Ann~"
