v4 Chapter 96： Savvy elders of Lisangya (1/2)

This method is summed up in one sentence.

Is the cliff too high? That's simple, just fill it in!

The cliffs of 50 meters high are completely unsuccessful for most ordinary people on the mainland of Sainz, so no matter whether it is the Kingdom of Rulson or the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, at the beginning, I heard that Xu also actually When I wanted to build a road from here to the Kingdom of Rulson, I thought he was crazy at all.

But for Xu Yi, on the developed world of science and technology, the cliffs of 50 meters high are not difficult to solve.

There are many ways to solve this problem on Earth. It is only limited to the current technological level on the Sains continent. Xu also chose the simplest and most rude method, which is to fill the cliff.

Specifically, it is the use of a large number of stone earthwork to increase the low-lying Principality of Constantine, and to create a subgrade that is sufficient to connect the other side of the cliff to the Kingdom of Rulson.

It is certainly impossible to say that it is completely filled. What Xu also asks is to fill out an uphill roadbed that can be used to lay roads.

Considering the height of the cliff and the **** of the road, according to the calculation, the length of the roadbed will be as long as five kilometers. With the roadbed of at least 50 meters wide, the required stone earthwork will be an astronomical number.

If it is based on the level of technology on the mainland of Sainz, whether it is excavation or transportation of stone and earth, it can only be completely manpower. To complete such a huge project, at least tens of thousands of migrant workers must be used. It is even possible to complete it in more than ten years.

This amount of engineering. In addition to the embodiment of the national will. There is no other possibility at all.

Now, with the help of engineering magic machinery developed by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. This project is much simpler.

After careful exploration and data projection by the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, it is estimated that as long as the new Feishang Association can provide enough large and medium-sized magic excavators and large-scale magical heavy-duty locomotives, the huge manpower required for this huge project will not exceed 3,000. It will not exceed two years.

If all goes well, the entire Slu Highway will most likely be completely completed within five years.

However, although the required manpower and engineering time are greatly reduced, the investment will not be reduced too much.

According to estimates, the Slu Highway will definitely be the most expensive road built by the Amrit Chamber of Commerce to date.

The total length of the road from Xu’s private territory to the border between the two countries is more than 140 kilometers. It is estimated that it will invest 300,000 gold coins.

The section of the Kingdom of Rulson from the border to the city of Kulaka has a total length of more than 560 kilometers and is expected to invest 1.1 million gold coins.

These two sections of roads are laid in accordance with ordinary road construction standards, and the estimated cost is also in accordance with this standard.

But from filling the roadbed to finally reaching the top of the cliff, the total length of the entry into the Kingdom of Rulson is only about five kilometers, and the estimated cost is likely to exceed the staggering 800,000 gold coins.

Add up, this Slu Highway has a total of 700 kilometers, and the total investment is more than two million gold coins, and may even reach as much as 2.5 million gold coins.

Although the road to the Kingdom of Rulson will be invested by the Kingdom of Rulson, President Cruise still feels that the cost of this road is too high. Some are not worthwhile.

In his view, the new Feishang will build such a highway at such a high cost. It's better to just wrap around a circle and spend more than one day and a small amount of freight at most, which is far more economical than building this road.

However, Xu also did not feel much about this price.

On the earth, the construction of a highway can be carried out at a cost of tens of millions of yuan per kilometer or even hundreds of millions of yuan. The average cost per kilometer of roads here is even less than 10,000 gold coins, which is undoubtedly much cheaper. It is.

Although the artificial materials of the Cairns continent are extremely cheap, and the quality of the roads built is far from the highways on the earth, the price still makes Xu Yi feel completely acceptable.

The reason why I insisted on investing a lot of money and overcoming such difficulties was to build this road. In fact, it was precisely because Xu did not want to adopt the method that President Cruise said.

It is possible to detour the goods to the Kingdom of Rulson, but if you want to detour, you must pass through the territory of the Kingdom of Lampari.

Let’s not say that there must be a certain tariff on the entry and exit of the Kingdom of Lampari. If the Kingdom of Lampari is prohibited from passing through the goods of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, then it will be time for the new company to seek a solution. late.

After all, the new Feishang Association is currently actively developing large-scale magic ships suitable for deep-sea ocean navigation, and the construction of this Slu Highway is to be able to transport the goods produced by the new Feishang Chamber to other places on the mainland more conveniently and quickly. go with.

Although the Principality of Constantine is very suitable for living, it can be used without much interference. However, the terrain here is somewhat limited. If you do not try to solve this problem in advance, the new Feishang Association will only have one dead end.

Of course, these problems are not within the consideration of the elders of Lisangya. She came here to meet with Xu, mainly because of the road foundation filling project of the Slu Highway, which happened to pass through the Moon Shadow Forest where the Moon Shadow tribe is located.

To fill the ground and improve the roadbed, of course, it will greatly affect the topography of the Moonshadow Forest, so Xu must also obtain the support of the Moon Shadow tribe in advance.

Xu also proposed this project to the elders of Lisangya. When asked for cooperation, he got the initial consent of the elders of Lisangya.

This time, the elders of Lisangya came and did not reveal any strange expressions. Xu also naturally believed that she had decided to cooperate.

Sure enough, after hearing the question of Xu Yi, the elder Laosian nodded and said: ”Well, cooperation is no problem. After all, it is good for our tribe to be able to go straight to the Kingdom of Rulson.”

Xu also smiled slightly and waited for the following.
