I have a food city [infrastructure] Section 312
Everywhere there were poor people who worked in single clothes in winter, snowplows, bricklayers, cement bearers, pavers......
Everywhere there were workers, who wore thin clothes and had to work hard outside in winter, and workers from 5 to 35 years old could be seen everywhere.
The chaos is also real, there is a chaotic demolition and reconstruction everywhere, houses are being built here, there are pushing, and the flying dust is a chaos that snow can't cover.
"It's time to pay your salary! These 3 copper coins are yours, no problem just press a handprint...... 5 Copper Coins Collect ......"
Look, after a hard day's work, you can only earn three or five copper coins, who doesn't say that you are poor?
But what Agnes saw was a tired and happy look on everyone's faces.
They lined up, took their wages, reverently pressed their handprints on the payroll to indicate that they had received their wages, and then left with their coins in their hands and smiling faces.
The workers who were still working saw that they had already begun to pay their wages, and their eyes showed envy, and they silently accelerated the movements of the work in their hands.
"Brown sugar ginger soup, who wants to drink brown sugar ginger soup?" Children push small carts, shouting and making ginger soup for the workers.
The color of the brown sugar ginger soup is a little light, but you can still drink a strong ginger flavor and a faint sweetness.
The clothes are not enough to the extent that everyone has one, but the winter is really not bearable, so the brown sugar ginger soup to warm up the cold has appeared again!
The children pushed the cart to deliver it from area to area, and from time to time they also came to a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup that was a little hotter than warm and drank it, and the whole person was warm.
Don't underestimate this work of sending brown sugar ginger soup, just one Colt City, so that 100,000 children have two copper coins a day and three working meals that can fill their stomachs.
"Colt had 560,000 civilians and 4.65 million slaves, and if our mill went well, it would probably provide 150,000 jobs," Margaery said. ”
"One hundred and fifty thousand?!" Agnes exclaimed in surprise, not too much, but too little.
The total population is more than five million, and if you count the slaves privately owned by other nobles, it is not impossible to break through six million, compared with six million, 150,000 is too little and too little.
Ge Marie sighed: "If the follow-up sales are good, production will probably be expanded, and more jobs will be provided." ”
But if the sales situation is average or even bad, it will be necessary to lay off employees.
Agnes gasped, eager to help start selling fabrics now.
But if you don't even have a product, where can you sell it?
"So what are we waiting for?! Hurry up and get to work! "Agnes is so motivated that she can't wait to get to work now.
Margaery finally persuaded her, it was getting dark, let's eat and rest first, and it would be the same to work hard tomorrow!
Agnes felt that she had a point, and no matter how reluctant she was, she had to go to eat and rest first.
"So are we going to eat spicy crayfish or hot pot? Or barbecue skewers spicy hot? Agnes reported a long list of choices, and almost deflated her stomach.
Margaery sighed deeply, "There are none here. ”
Agnes seemed to have been struck by a thunderbolt from the sky, and her beautiful pupils were full of disbelief when her eyes widened: "There is no such delicious food here?!" ”
Yes, why is the Xinrong Territory said to be "poor" by the Lansvellies? Because there is a lot of food here.
Like what kind of hot pot, fried skewers, barbecue, spicy hot and the like, there is no such thing!
There are only boxed lunches for working meals.
It's not that this boxed lunch is unpalatable to the extent of swill, but there is a certain difference between a large pot of rice and delicate small stir-fried dishes, let alone the gap with hot pot.
Agnes lost her soul entirely.
Although Agnes's whole person has become gray and has lost her soul and color, fortunately, Margaery's psychology is very strong, and she is not only mentally prepared, but also prepared for hundreds of millions of points.
"I brought hot pot base, we can go buy some vegetables and meat and come back and eat it ourselves."
Agnes' soul is back!
The hot pot base is simply an artifact-like existence.
There is no hot pot base, boiled greens are boiled greens, but with a hot pot base, and a little more elaborate to adjust a saucer, it is a simple version of delicious small hot pot!
Although it is not as delicious and convenient as going to a hot pot restaurant, it is already the best choice when there is only a large pot of rice and dark dishes around.
It's just a pity that the hot pot base is difficult to grab.
The business of hot pot restaurants is so hot, there are countless people queuing up every day, and each store, even if it is a chain store, has its own unique and innovative pot base to choose from, so each store is very reluctant to supply its own business, let alone see the finished hot pot base sold out.
Margaery also bought a little because she had a good relationship with a chef at a hot pot restaurant.
Agnes was envious, and the thing she was most worried about when she left Lanceville now was what she would have for her next meal.
There is no need to worry about this matter in Lanceville, there are so many shops on the roadside, and there are many roadside stalls along the road, so you can open a blind box and order a bowl of food that you can enjoy very much.
No way, Lanceville seems to have a very dedicated and serious spirit for the "food" business, and he definitely doesn't want to let it appear on the menu if it's not delicious!
His own reputation is secondary, but Lanceville's reputation as the "City of Gastronomy" must not be tarnished in the slightest!
Generally, delicious dishes are not allowed, and you must reach a certain level to become your own signature!
Agnes didn't quite know how this almost overly stubborn ethos came to be, but as a guest, she couldn't have been more satisfied.
If you look at the name of a restaurant and say, "I heard it's delicious," the chef will focus on 12 points of seriousness.
Agnes has never stepped on thunder in Lanceville, never!
Even some relatively niche foods, such as "stinky mushrooms" that goblins like to eat, will be reminded and confirmed again and again by the waiter before ordering.
The practice of stinky mushrooms is similar to that of stinky tofu, but the stinky mushroom stinky is a biochemical weapon that is hundreds of thousands of times more stinky than stinky tofu.
Only goblins who live underground and live with mushrooms all year round can accept this dish that looks very dark in the eyes of others.
It is more stinky than stinky tofu, but it does not taste like stinky tofu smells more stinky and tastes more fragrant, stinky mushrooms are like a lump of rotten mushrooms, there is no aroma, only the strange taste of water, after all, the process of pickling stinky mushrooms is like ripening the mushrooms again, they have been overripe to rotten!
The only one who can accept this taste is probably goblins.
This is the different physiological characteristics of different races, and the taste that is unacceptable to humans is a mellow fragrance to goblins.
It's important to respect other people's eating habits, otherwise you can see the sweet bean curd party and the salty bean curd party fighting in the streets every day for 300 rounds, during which there are spicy bean curd trying to kill them all.
However, stinky mushrooms can be regarded as a small hit in a different way.
It's so strange, and I've heard that no one else but goblins can accept that strange smell, but many people are curious about what kind of unacceptable taste it is, and they run over to taste it.
What is it? Stinky mushrooms, vomit - what is this? Stinky mushrooms, vomit and vomit -
Even the goblins are curious about whether there are people of other races who like to eat stinky mushrooms more than their goblins, and they will run to watch the challengers every day, the store is crowded with people every day, and the store has even launched a "small portion" and "super large portion" to take care of the guests who are afraid of eating and wasting and the guests who have the courage to challenge themselves, everyone is giggling, and the atmosphere is quite harmonious!
It's really outrageous!
- outrageous, but with a sense of reasonableness.
Because Agnes was one of the curious guests.
But she wasn't too outrageous, she didn't think too highly of herself and ordered a super large portion, she just ordered a small portion, the small portion was only half a pill, which can be said to be more miniature than the tasting pack, but it was only that half a pill, which was enough.
Agnes ate it once and never tried it a second time.
Because of the explosion of stinky mushrooms, there is also a small stall selling taste shielding potions outside the store, most of which are made by the children of Lansvelly Primary School to make their own potions and sell them, not to mention, the business is strangely good.
Stinky mushrooms have caused a lot of damage to Agnes, and she hasn't even eaten a mouthful of mushrooms for three or four days!
God knows how much she loved fried mushrooms, grilled mushrooms, and spicy butter pan cream shiitake mushrooms before! So many days she can only eat small crispy pork and fried pork ribs to satisfy her cravings.
However, she occasionally goes to see the excitement, and sees the wonderful expressions of the unbelieving fierce seed who has to challenge herself and fail!
Who knows the joy of reproducing one's own pain in others! It's so much fun!!
But Xinrong Territory is different from Lansvelly, there is still a gap between the degree of "eating at a time", and most of the staple vegetables served are evenly distributed on Lansvelly's side, so don't say anything about "eating well".
The largest proportion of commoners and slaves also had little money in their hands, and there was no room for the development of the catering industry.
Therefore, it is normal that there is no hot pot restaurant, fried skewers and barbecue restaurants here.
Agnes persuaded herself to accept, but was still a little uncomfortable.

"Mommy, Mommy, Mommy—"
A group of children rushed home with today's paychecks, which they don't usually do, because the evening work meal time is 5 p.m., and when they go home after eating, if they run too fast, the food they eat is easy to spit out.
But the news they got today is too important, and they must tell their families the news as soon as possible.
"What's wrong, what's wrong? What are you yelling about? ”
The position is limited, and the mother is basically at home, not only to reduce the competitiveness of the job for men, but also to have a bunch of children to take care of at home.
The world full of magic makes the body of ordinary people relatively strong, even if they can't eat enough all year round, the body has the ability to easily conceive.
There is no work to do in winter, the family is idle and bored at home, there is no contraception, and the children are like potatoes, born in bunches and bunches, and no matter how many children die, the number of children will still increase quickly.
It is normal for a twenty-year-old mother to have five or six children, twins, triplets or even quadruplets and quintuplets.
But how many will survive is not certain.
Sickness, starvation, abandonment......
For the same job, the man gets more money, and the woman is pregnant, so the task of taking care of the family naturally falls on the woman's head.
The Barney family is like thousands of ordinary families, he is the only surviving triplet of the eldest of the triplets, the strongest, the least likely to get sick, the most scramble for milk, and the least likely to be given up when there is a need to choose.
But he still has two older brothers and a sister on his head, and of course, he will soon have one or more younger siblings.
The woman with the big belly was doing the work of pasting the boxes she had brought back, and her daughter was diligently tidying up the pasted boxes, and after cleaning up the cardboard boxes on the floor, she also sat down to help paste the boxes.
The job of pasting cardboard boxes is very rare, and the person in charge also takes care of the family for the sake of the mother being pregnant.
Paste a hundred cardboard boxes can earn a copper coin, the mother and daughter start to work from dawn, and will stop when the last bit of moonlight disappears at night, and you can earn eleven or twelve copper coins a day!
Her father's work on the construction site was only 7 copper coins a day! Such a good job makes many people want to get pregnant right away to get such a job.
But the person in charge said that after the beginning of spring, many factories will start to recruit female workers, and if they do a good job, they can earn seven or eight copper coins a day and bonuses, but pregnant women are not recruited.
In this way, the person who is about to move pauses and immediately becomes pregnant.
Barney ran all the way back, and before he could reach the door, he began to shout: "Mom, where's the knife in Mommy?!" Give it to me, I'm going to pick the weeds! Herbs can be sold for money! ”
The woman sitting in front of the window with the moonlight paste box did not raise her head, she was only 24, but her body had given birth to too many children and was already loose and showing aging: "There is only a knife at home, if you dare to take it and play around to see if I don't kill you!" ”
The woman didn't believe a word in the news that it could be sold for money, she just thought it was her son who was naughty and made an excuse to play with a kitchen knife.
Barney was so anxious that he couldn't do it: "Mom, it's true! It can really be sold for money! I heard it from my supervisor, and they're negotiating pricing! It is better to say that it should be set at 10 catties and 1 copper coin or 12 catties and a copper coin! Several of the water delivery workers heard this, and they also rushed home to go out to cut the grass! ”
It's the beginning of spring, but it's already growing, and you can see green sprouts coming out of the snow below.
Of course, it is not a very short young grass, it will grow tightly on the ground like a spider's web, and a single plant will grow many roots on the stems and leaves, and stick tightly into the ground.
