Chapter 164: Winter construction plan (1/2)
Herti’s worries are actually no problem in this era, because in the three views of the vast majority of people, even in the facts of this era, the cold winter only means one thing: everything is dying, life is getting less, everything Everything is stopped, humans will reserve enough food and fuel before this, then stop working, return home, and switch to pure consumption.
Just like those who store food in a tree hole in advance and winter in a cave in winter.
This way of living is determined by reality—although there are all kinds of “magic” that show up with black technology, but it belongs to only a few elites, and the whole world is still firmly bound. In the land, peasants are the most basic producers of almost all social wealth. Agriculture and various agricultural-based production activities are the most important production activities of this society. Once winter falls, farming stops, then 80%. People will be idle, and the backward aristocracy order prohibits these people from doing business freely or engaging in any "side business that does not meet their status." If there is no permission from the nobility, the civilians will even go down the river to fish and go hunting in the mountains. To be severely punished.
In addition, the vast majority of civilians have limited food reserves in winter, and even during the winter they can only maintain a half-full state, so they dare not waste their energy to do anything "over the moment" - they are in winter Every breath of exhalation is consuming their own physical reserves, and may cause them to die before the spring.
However, in Cecil's collar, the situation is completely different.
The Cecil family does not currently have any form of luxury spending, which greatly saves money, and the new production model ensures that enough supplies can be stocked before the winter. Pitman and his trained pharmacy apprentices do their best. It also guarantees that the Territory’s food is sufficient – together with the food purchased from the town of Tanzan and the supplies supported by the king, the citizens of Cecil’s collars do not have to consider consumption in the winter.
I have to focus on the supplies that the king supports. Gao Wen admits that he is a small pit in this area, Francis II, because his agreement with the king was provided by the royal family to provide the entire territory of Cecil. In the initial consumption, he did not say how many people will be in his territory, and how many people will increase in a short period of time, so he has already requested extra supplies from the royal family several times...
Ensuring food supplies, there is a job in Gaowen here.
Nothing to do after winter? That is another territory. There are still many things that Cecil can do here. The steel mill is expanding its scale. Two large factories have been added next to the machinery manufacturing plant to install new production lines. The furnace area for firing Rebecca crystals has also been transformed into a formal factory called “Magic Crystal Smelting Plant”. "Not only for the firing of Rebecca crystals, but also a laboratory to test what new minerals can be synthesized from the various minerals dug out of the dark mountains. Silly scorpions are rushing in the lab every day." Throwing more than two hundred fireballs with a small furnace will be fun...
In addition, there are also iron mines in the east and countless construction sites on the territory.
After the winter, the land becomes hard and the water is easy to freeze. All kinds of construction-related work will become slow, but this does not mean that the construction work will stop. Rebecca’s “out of bounds cement test” "Products", although the output is low, but the performance at low temperatures is very good, coupled with the fact that there are not too large buildings on the territory today, the construction of the various sites will not stop, and there is a big project to be launched soon. ——
As the Baishui River enters the dry season and the water level decreases, Gaowen plans to build a truly sturdy, long-term bridge on the river to replace the current temporary bridge, so that after the spring of the next year, on the north bank of the Baishui River. Development work can be carried out smoothly.
He even worried that even with the refugees in the wilderness, the manpower in the territory is still not enough. After all, those people need training. When they can't adapt to work, they can have a powerful engine. Nonstop...
After Gao Wenwen presented these plans and supporting plans in front of Herti, the latter fell into a long period of horror.
"How, don't worry about the refugees having nothing to do now?" Gao Wen smiled. "We have enough jobs to keep them busy for the whole winter, and in the process everyone will adapt to Cecil. What is the new law that is not complicated, so what are you worried about?"
Hetty silently glanced at the plan on the table and took a deep breath: "Worried about exhaustion..."
Gao Wen: "...cough cough..."
Thinking about the pressure that this granddaughter is going to bear is not small, Gao Wen can only comfort the other side: "Don't worry, the Viscount Andrew tried to find a group of lonely knights and bankrupt businessmen and scholars in his territory. Move them to Cecil to do things. I plan to arrange half of them to teach at night school, and the other half will give you a deputy, so that you can put the shelves of the Ministry of the Interior in the winter."
Hedi finally sighed when he heard this: "Thanks to the ancestors..."
"This is how it sounds like the gang of barbarians used to say," Gao Wen said with a strange look. "When they did anything, they used to praise the spirit of the ancestors..."
