Lord, he is not a man [infrastructure]

Tang Bo did not declare war on Sita County all at once. He adopted a cannibalization strategy. He said nothing, and he did not warn the princesses and lords of Sita County to leave the land of Sita County. Push forward.

In order to facilitate the occupation of Sita County and for the sake of the future, the first thing Tang Bo did was to build roads.

He transferred all the newly arrived refugees to the road engineering department except young orphans who could not work and a few available talents.

elder?Refugees who managed to escape to Bailuling from other places could hardly see men and women over 40 years old.

Tang Bo will raise these refugees for a few days first, distribute food to them to let them recover a bit, and then find two pharmacists and [-] nurses to treat them. After that, one pharmacist and five nurses will follow the road engineering department .

These pharmacists and nurses were newly trained by Bailuling School. Most of the original pharmacists only knew a few herbs and dared to call themselves pharmacists, while the truly talented pharmacists were taken into the school by Tang Bo, who was brainwashing... Cough, thinking Re-education, while allowing them to pass on their knowledge to school students.

Unwilling to teach?

I'm sorry, all the pharmacists here need to take classes, teach, and treat in parallel. If you can't do it, you can only ask you to leave.

And as long as people who come to Bailuling and see Bailu City, how many people are willing to leave?

This is not only a paradise, but also various supporting facilities and enjoyment are like a divine kingdom.

Some self-cherished pharmacists are reluctant to leave Bailuling, but when they find that if they are willing to teach knowledge, they can also learn new knowledge of pharmacy and medical treatment, they are all willing.

The road engineering department is divided into several brigades according to the direction of travel.

Among them, the engineering team that built roads along the river to Sita County was called the Four Teams.The first three engineering teams are building roads in the virgin forest, Hongshan collar and red taro collar respectively.

The fourth project team built roads along the river, not only will they not go wrong, but also it is convenient to get water.

At the same time, in order to facilitate the life of the people in the road engineering department, Tang Bo asked the Bailuling factory to produce a large number of caravans and tents, and also provided food for the people in the road engineering department.

At the beginning, those who followed the engineering department to build roads were worried that it would be too hard, and they were even more afraid of escaping from the tiger's den and entering the wolf's den.

In the past, when they repaired roads for the lords, the foreman stood by and supervised them, and if they failed, they would be whipped.They also had to bring their own dry food.And this kind of labor is one of the taxes. No matter how hard they work, they can't get a copper coin.

The refugees were very worried that the White Hart Lord would use them in the same way, but fortunately, the White Hart Lord seemed willing to provide food, and few of the refugees fled in order not to starve to death.

But on the first day of work, they discovered that although there are supervisory foremen here, they don’t know how to use whips. Whoever fails to give a warning the first time will be fined a meal the second time, and will be driven away immediately after the third time.

Yes, the punishment here turned out to be food confiscation.But instead of confiscating all three meals a day, only one meal was fined.

right!Three meals a day!Each of them can eat three meals a day. Although there is a limited amount, basically everyone can eat enough. If they work well, they will be rewarded with food or even meat.

The refugees were overwhelmed, they were willing to work only for the sake of being able to eat three meals a day and be full every day.

And although Bailuling is tired of building roads, it is not laborious.The foreman will not force workers to work from morning to night, and they will not even allow them to rest.

The work here is very particular about "science". This word is said to the workers by pharmacists and pharmacist assistants, and the workers don't quite understand what it means. The jobs arranged are also different.

In addition to meals, they can also drink clean boiled water and sometimes herbal tea on the way to work.

In the evening, they will find that tents and caravans have been prepared, and they can lie down and sleep.

Sick and injured people will not be thrown away, nor will they lie there unattended. A pharmacist and his assistants will take the initiative to treat them. There is no money for medical treatment and medicine, which is said to be one of the benefits of working.Even if it’s just a small cut on your finger, if you go to those pharmacist assistants, they will gently apply the medicine for you with a smile on their face, and then tell you some precautions.

There are quite a few people with old injuries and illnesses who had never had the opportunity or financial resources to see them before, but after entering the road engineering department, they had the opportunity to be cured instead.

The refugees wept with joy, their lives were better than before they fled.

What surprised them even more was that after they had worked for a full month, the engineering department actually gave them money!

And there were quite a few. According to the type of work and how much work they did, the least child laborer could get [-] copper coins, and the most got silver coins.

The refugees let alone run away. Even if you forcefully drive them away at this time, they will just kneel down and beg, begging not to drive them away.

There were still some refugees who left. Some of them worked stealthily and played tricks. After several warnings, these people were all driven away.

There are also some people with bad character, who steal, rob, or even bully women and children in the engineering team. When encountering such people, if the circumstances are not serious, they will wear wooden shackles to do more work. If the circumstances are serious, they will be punished up.

Not only did the refugees have no objection to this, but everyone clapped their hands and applauded.Because the engineering department has almost zero tolerance for such violators of the laws and regulations of the White Hart Collar, within half a month, the atmosphere of the entire road engineering department has been greatly changed.

The front-runners of the engineering team are responsible for cutting down weeds, shrubs, and trees, digging up roots and grass roots, and moving large stones away.Pharmacists and nurses will also follow along, and if they find usable herbs, they will collect them in advance.

The cut plants will not be wasted, and after drying, they can be used as firewood for the engineering department.Some of the finished wood, remove the branches, push it into the river, let the wood flow down the river, and someone will be responsible for salvaging the wood when it arrives at the Hongshan collar.

Stones that are too large are piled up on the river bank and used as the cornerstone of the embankment later.

The second group of people will carry wooden buckets to pick up the gravel and break up the oversized clods, and the buckets of gravel will be poured into the cart.These gravels will be useful in the future.

A third group would pull huge rollers and logs to compact and level the ground.

The fourth group of people followed and scattered the crushed stones evenly on the dirt road.

The fifth group continued to pull the rollers and tamping logs to press the broken stones into the dirt road surface.

The sixth group of people began to pour the cement, level the cement pavement and build roadbeds on both sides of the road to ensure that the road can be used for a long time.

There are also people in the back who are responsible for guarding the road to prevent people or animals from damaging the cement road that has not yet solidified.

In this way, when the fourth road engineering team moved forward a little bit, a wide, hard and smooth gray cement road was left behind.

The road is about 12 meters wide, the two lanes in the middle are express lanes, and the two sides are pedestrian paths.

Such a spacious road is rare in the Luma Principality and even in the entire Tonglei Kingdom, let alone in this kind of rural territory.But since Tang Bo wanted to start construction, of course he hoped that it could be done in one step, but the four lane widths were not his ultimate requirement. When Bailuling really developed in the future, these lanes would definitely be widened and strengthened.

Tang Bo didn't like the width. In the eyes of the builders, this is really magnificent, beautiful and magical like the legendary road to the kingdom of God.

The cement roads are drying quickly. At the beginning, the delivery of supplies to the engineering team was dependent on the fleet. Now the convoys behind can keep up. There is a good road to go, and there is no need to detour. Vehicles are faster than ships.

What's more, the white deer collar's car now is not wooden wheels, but pneumatic tires made of sticky grass juice.Cars equipped with such tires can run very fast on flat concrete roads.

As soon as this kind of pneumatic tire car appeared, it attracted crowds in Bailuling. Even now, two months after its launch, passers-by are still staring at the wheels, let alone the new refugees.

Piglet also asked Tang Bo if he would sell this pneumatic tire car, saying that it would definitely sell well and be sold at a super high price.

However, Tang Bo felt that Bailuling had acquired a lot of new things outside, but because most of them were civilian goods and luxury goods, they did not attract special attention from the top management.

But if outsiders know that Bailuling can produce steel products, there is no doubt that Bailuling will be attacked immediately.Even the Marquis of Thunder, who is happy to work with them, will turn into a robber and invader.

Rubber products are also strategic materials.Don't look at the tires as inconspicuous, but as long as it is a man of insight, like the Marquis of Thunder, as long as he sees the tires, he is very likely to realize that this thing has changed the whole world. First of all, it can increase the speed of the car, and the war In the competition, whoever is faster often wins.Secondly, there are advantages such as low sound and less bumps.

Paper is also very important, but because Tang Bo sells paper and books very expensively, and writing and knowledge are currently only in the hands of nobles, as long as no one teaches them, ordinary people will not know what is written in the books when they buy them back. Paper and pens are also useless to them, so the nobles hold the paper in the hands of the white deer leader.

"Good things and useful things are reserved for our own use first. After we update them, we will sell the obsolete things to other countries. As for the luxury goods that are not needed but can make us money, we can sell them casually. "Tang Bo patted Piglet on the shoulder and said so.

Piglet suddenly realized, with a taught expression on his face.

Since then, the good things of Bailu Ling have basically never flowed out unless they are smuggled.The Bailu products that outsiders can use are basically the outdated products of Bailu Ling.

Let's talk about the fourth road engineering team. At the beginning, the workers were not proficient in their work, and they didn't know much about Bailu collar, so they worked slowly.But when they all become skilled workers, they all hope to be rewarded, and they hope to change from the status of migrant workers to the official status of white deer leader as soon as possible, and they all work hard.

It is said that becoming an official white deer collar, their benefits will be better, and they will have medical insurance when they are sick (workers don’t know what insurance is, they only know that this kind of medical insurance allows them to see a doctor as long as they pay a little money healing), old age and pensions, children can go to school for free, and learn knowledge that only nobles can learn.In addition, buying a house and buying things will be cheaper than outsiders, even the same type of work is paid more than outsiders.All in all, there are so many benefits!

For this reason, the cement road laid by the fourth engineering team was repaired well and quickly in the later stage, and the average daily extension was about 50 meters.

Don't think that 50 meters is too little. The earth's modern ordinary four-lane cement road, with modern machinery and tools, only needs 500 or [-] workers, and can lay an average of about [-] meters a day. But the current Bailuling is completely The road is paved by hand, and they don't have a cement mixer truck. They completely rely on manual mixing of cement, and then water and pave it bit by bit.

The most troublesome thing is not mixing and pouring cement, but the most time-consuming and labor-intensive thing is to open up and level the road at the front.

It is very fast to lay an average of 50 meters per day, which is because the fourth engineering team used a lot of manpower.

How much is this amount?

At present, the number of employees in the fourth engineering team has reached nearly 7000.

It's an exaggerated number, right, but in ancient times when everything was done by hand, this amount is really not that much.

That is to say, Tang Bo's benefits and benefits for all workers of the road engineering team are very good, which motivates most of them to work hard, so that only 7000 people (including the elderly, weak, women and children) can be used, and the quality can be guaranteed. case, to achieve such a speed.

Tang Bo did not let these 7000 people continue to work.

The city planners who visited in advance will select certain places suitable for human life, and when the cement road is built there, the engineering team will build another side road.

One or two villages will be built around this fork.

People from the road engineering team will build roads in these villages, and people from the house construction team will rush to build houses here.

Afterwards, those who performed well in the fourth road engineering team could choose whether to stay in these villages and settle down. A person who performed well could bring two relatives to settle down.

These people will cultivate new fields here, and the White Deer Leader will provide them with good seeds and farming tools, and even rent cattle, horses and mules for them to plow the fields.

This made the refugees even more grateful to Tang Bo. Although the benefits of the road engineering team are very good, most of the people who come from farmers hope to have their own homes and fields.

Now, the lord Tang Bo has given them a new home and fields, and the house is very strong, spacious and beautiful, even with toilets and bathrooms.

Although the rules of the village are very strict, and there are village chiefs and police chiefs sent from above to manage them, but the village chiefs and police chiefs will not oppress them. Their lives are definitely much more comfortable and happier than before they fled. , at least they won’t be hungry every day, and they don’t have to worry about someone coming to snatch their children, wives and property.

The members of the fourth team of road engineering visited these villages one by one, and saw that those who performed well could really settle here, and the rest worked harder, wanting to quickly obtain the right to settle and obtain their own houses and fields.

The territory closest to Hongshan Territory is Rhino Territory, and the lord is Dexi. His son Devo once tried to intercept Tang Bo's ship.

Lord Dexi has been particularly troubled these days. He has long received news that the entire county of Sita County has been entrusted to Lord Tang Bo of White Deer Lord by His Majesty the King. At that time, he was thinking about whether to talk to Tang Bo. .

In his opinion, Tang Bo needs someone to help manage the land and people in Sita County. He will touch the princess, but he should not touch the lords from all over the place, as long as those lords can surrender to Tang Bo and pay certain benefits.

But Anshen, the princess of Sita County, quickly sent someone to send a letter to them, telling them not to contact Tang Bo, saying that everything should be kept as it was.

De Xi didn't dare to do anything, he didn't know how Tang Bo would treat him who had defected to him, but he knew very well how An Shen would deal with the betrayer.Although Anshen is now being harassed by a large number of disaster victims led by the lord Wanghe of the atomic bomb, he is a little bit hard to protect himself, but the starving tiger is bigger than the lamb, and Dexi dare not offend Anshen.

What's more, his daughter is married to An Shen's eldest son, and they are relatives by marriage.If Tang Bo, the lord of White Deer, wanted to deal with An Shen, would he possibly let An's in-laws go?

After discussing with his confidants, De Xi planned to sit back and watch the changes.

After sitting and watching, the road engineering team from Bailuling came.

At the beginning, De Xi didn't know what those people were here for, but seeing thousands of people walking non-stop all the way to his territory, he was worried to death.

Later, he found out that these people were building the road... He sent someone to take a sneak look. It was said that the road was built very well, which made him very envious, and he wanted to mobilize the leaders to build the road for the rhino leader.

But road construction requires a lot of manpower, money, materials, and food, and it will cause huge public grievances. Sita County is still not living well, so he can only think about it and dare not toss about it.

But those road builders are getting closer and closer to the rhino collar. According to their road construction speed, they may reach the edge of the rhino collar in two days.

what to do?Is he going to ignore it, or not allow them to pass?

"Lord, you don't need to be so worried. Let them build the road when they build it. This road is within the range of our rhinoceros territory. After it is repaired, we can use it. You can just pretend that the Earl is helping you repair it for free. The road is ready." His confidant housekeeper enlightened him.

De Xi smiled wryly, "I want to think so too, but who would do such a thankless thing? You see, he has only been a lord for a few years and how old he is, so he has become an earl, and he has also met His Majesty the King. His Majesty the King personally bestowed a reward on such a large territory in Sita County, so he was granted it if he said it. Even our grand duke has nothing to do with him."

His son Devo also came, and immediately yelled: "What's so great about Lord White Hart, but he just knows how to flatter His Majesty the King. If I see His Majesty the King, maybe I can get a title as well. It can also help your father get a bigger fief."

De Xi looked at his youngest son, and couldn't help thinking darkly: Why was his carefully raised eldest son who died in the first place, instead of this spoiled stupid thing!

However, all his eldest son left behind were daughters, not a single boy.

Lord Dexi has also worked hard himself, and I don't know whether it is because he is old or for other reasons. He has not been able to give birth to other children these years, neither male nor female. That is to say, he now only has one son, Devo.

If it weren't for his two daughters who were both married and of mediocre ability, he would have wished for his daughter to recruit a husband at home and give birth to a grandson to cultivate well.Maybe he could foster a granddaughter?

Fortunately, Devo's wife is finally pregnant. Now he is begging all kinds of gods every day, and he begs his youngest daughter-in-law to give him a healthy and smart grandson.

Seeing that his father didn't speak, Devo thought he had spoken to his father's heart, and made a new inference: "I admit that the White Hart Lord may have some skills, but we don't need to be afraid of him, he is so weird. The one with the weapon is the Lord Sanshu, not the Lord Bailu. And I heard from my brother-in-law that the Grand Duke doesn’t like that Tang Bo very much, so the Grand Duke didn’t let Princess An go to Luma City. Sita Commandery is for Tang Bo. With Princess An around, what is Tang Bo worth?"

Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you are so intimate, and you don't think that people will look down on you at all.De Xi frowned: "Have you heard what Young Master An said?"

Devo proudly said: "My brother-in-law told me secretly that the Grand Duke sent a divinely favored person to help him. If the Lord of the White Deer doesn't come, then let him come. If he dares to come, let him come and go. But then The god-favored one is very interested in the weapons used by the three tree collars, and I heard that he will go to the three tree collars in the next few days to find the hairy lord."

"What? You idiot! Who asked you to involve Lord Gu?" Lord Dexi's face became darker.

"Father, why are you scolding me?" Devore was upset.

Lord Dexi said angrily: "Didn't that good brother-in-law of yours tell you the real life experience of the little lord of Sanshuling? Do you know who his biological father is? You tell his secret to the gods who came from Luma City, how can you Guarantee that the gods have good intentions for Gu Ding, there are many people in Luma City who want Gu Ding to die, if something happens to Gu Ding, you and I, we don't want to please anyone!"

Devo looked blank: "Isn't Gu Ding the son of the former Lord Sanshu? What kind of background does he have? Who would want him to die?"

Lord Dexi was so angry that he turned his head to look at the chief steward standing behind Devo, and scolded: "That's how you taught him? Didn't you tell him such an important thing?"

The manager was wronged and bitter, he told the young master many things, but the young master didn't want to hear it, or he forgot it, what could he do?

Lord Dexi also knew that it was difficult for the steward. This son didn't even listen to his words, let alone a steward's words. Offenders don't even know it.

Dexi found an excuse to drive out his youngest son, and continued to discuss with his confidants how to treat the Bailuling road engineering team.

The engineering team is also talking about it.

But the chatter was not from the engineering team, but the mercenaries who followed the engineering team and hid in the engineering team.

The leader of the mercenaries is Gu Ding.

Gu Ding took out the map and unfolded it on the table, "The first thing we want to take down is here, Rhino Leader."

"Strong attack? Or beheading?" asked the head of the first mercenary regiment.

Gu Ding shook his head: "Negotiate first, what the lord means is that you might as well take this rhino lord to our White Deer collar to have a look."

The head of the group immediately laughed: "Then he will definitely be shaken. If it were me, I would rather stay in Bailu City and be an ordinary rich man than a poor lord who is thankless and can't enjoy much."

Gu Ding smiled: "Lord Dexi is not poor, but he is not a bad person, and he is good to the people. He tried to accept all the victims who fled to his territory from Sita County. Later, too many came. His The territory really can't handle so many people, so he intentionally or unintentionally instructed those disaster victims to go to our White Hart Territory, and even pretended not to know and secretly allowed our boat to dock to pick up those disaster victims. And his advice was not out of trouble for us It’s because he knows that our White Hart Collar can accept these people.”

Suddenly, Gu Ding touched his chin again, and smiled strangely: "But this Dexi lord is not very lucky. The eldest son who was carefully cultivated suddenly died of illness more than three years ago, leaving only one youngest son, but this youngest son is not only innocent Talent, but still a brain-dead."
