Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the game is to touch the Princess Changle

Su Chen didn't expect that the reward for the horseshoe would be blast furnace ironmaking.

"Damn it, the system only gives the horseshoe reward now? There's no point in smelting iron now, but we have to solve the food problem first.

How can we develop if the people can't eat enough?

But it's okay, it should provide a lot of jobs, and the sweet potatoes and potatoes should be harvested soon.

How to explain the sudden appearance of such a big thing as a blast furnace? This screw has never appeared in the Tang Dynasty."

"Su Chen, what's wrong with you?" Changle saw Su Chen suddenly stop, his expression was a little dull, and he kept turning the oil umbrella.

Su Chen came back to his senses and smiled, "It's okay, let's continue to go forward and take a look."

"Yeah!" Changle looked at Su Chen strangely, thinking: There must be something wrong!

After walking about half a mile further, Changle walked to the edge of the cement road, "Su Chen, are gravel on both sides of the road used to prevent rain erosion?"

Su Chen, who is a 2B, thought of laying gravel on both sides based on the appearance of the railway. One is to protect the roadbed, and the other is to prevent grass from growing.

Another is to facilitate drainage and prevent long-term water accumulation on the roadbed.

After telling Changle about these uses, Changle thought it made sense.

At this time, several ox carts carrying materials came from behind. Now the main road is unblocked, and the remaining roads will be poured today. It is estimated that it will take another four or five days to build the drainage ditch.

According to the road terrain, not the entire road has drainage ditches, and some are used for slope protection.

Just as the ox cart passed by Su Chen and others, a cow stopped.

Suddenly, the cow's tail lifted up, and the cow's hind legs slightly bent down, and then...

Bang~Bang~

Two large lumps of dung fell on the cement road. The uncle driving the ox cart jumped off the cart very skillfully, picked up the shovel on the cart, and shoveled the cow dung out of the road!

After pulling, the cow shook its tail and continued to move forward.

Su Chen saw this and his mouth twitched. This problem was solved, but it couldn't be solved at all.

Changle covered his mouth and chuckled.

This road has a good terrain and there are no mountains in the middle, so the road width is basically kept at 2 meters. If there are mountains blocking it, the width may be different.

Especially for those hard rock mountains, there is no explosives now. It can only be cut by hand or burned with fire and then watered.

After walking a short distance, Su Chen felt that Changle was a little tired, "Let's get on the carriage. It's a bit hot."

About three quarters of an hour later, Su Chen and Changle came to the construction site of Mingdemen. There were only more than 100 people working on the site.

Ninety percent of the labor for pouring this road was used for material mining and transportation.

Su Chen saw Chang Sun Chong and Daniu and walked towards them at the construction site in front.

He briefly asked how the other workers were arranged.

"Now only 1,500 people are left to work, 100 people for each of the six village roads, and 100 people here.

The drainage ditch is constructed in four sections. Tell the other people to gather outside the Suzaku Gate in five days to settle their wages."

Chang Sun Chong explained the general arrangement to Su Chen.

Su Chen nodded after listening and smiled: "Very good, by the way, those people who brought cattle, each person will be given ten cents a day."

"Okay!" Chang Sun Chong nodded in agreement.

...

Before lunch, Su Chen and the other two rushed back to the manor.

At this time, Su Chen was alone in the study studying the reward he had just received.

He first looked at the technical guidance for blast furnace ironmaking, and then found that the other two rewards were prepared for ironmaking.

This means that the horseshoe only rewards blast furnace ironmaking technology and two blast furnaces.

"100 cubic meters can produce 200 tons of molten iron a day? That's 400,000 catties of iron a day. Converted to 250,000 catties of Tang system, I don't know how much iron production the Tang Dynasty has in a year."

Su Chen touched his chin. If you want to make iron, it's best to set up this ironmaking plant in a place with a lot of coal and iron mines.

"Where are there a lot of coal and iron mines? Liaoning has the most iron mines, and Shanxi has a lot of coal mines. By the way, look at the map."

Su Chen's mind showed a 3D imaging world map, "Oh, half of the Northeast belongs to Goguryeo?"

"The Northeast is too far away and the population is small. It's not okay to build an iron factory there. Let's look at Shanxi."

Su Chen slowly searched on the map. The place names on it are different from modern place names. He only knows the approximate location.

"This is Shanxi. The one on the edge is... Yunzhou? Isn't it Datong? The central part of Shanxi should be Luliang."

Zoom in on the Shanxi area and focus on the middle area.

"It shows... Shizhou? I remember there is a Lan County in Shanxi, with many iron mines and coal mines.

Damn, this map is not good, I can't understand the names."

Su Chen was at a loss, his mind accidentally pointed at a mountain, and he said unintentionally: "It would be great if this map could show the mineral resources."

What Su Chen never expected was that there really were two rows of words on the top of this mountain.‘Waste mine’

Annual output: 0

This discovery surprised Su Chen. Can this map understand human language?

Then Su Chen muttered to himself: “It would be great if this map could show modern place names.”

I never expected that the map would not respond at all.

So 2B Su Chen could only point at each mountain to see where coal and iron ore resources were abundant.

Finally, he found a place called ‘Yifang County’, which had coal mines and many iron mines.

Su Chen silently memorized this place, and drew a map of this area, marking the mineral resources.

Then he continued to look for mines in the Yunzhou area. He didn’t know anything else, but the most border area of ​​Shanxi must be Datong in the future.

Sure enough, there were coal mines everywhere, which was definitely Datong in the future.

Su Chen didn’t think about anything else in his mind, and immersed himself in studying the map, and his mind kept controlling the map to zoom in and out.

After two quarters of an hour, Su Chen began to draw.

After more than an hour, Su Chen finally drew the map he wanted.

The map he drew this time was a bit large, and there were many place names written on it.

He now had a very bold idea. Originally, it would take some effort to resettle the 30,000 or 50,000 disaster victims, but now it was not necessary.

I was afraid that the 30,000 or 50,000 disaster victims would not be enough, and it would be better to have 100,000 or 80,000.

"Haha!" Thinking about it, Su Chen laughed unconsciously, stood up, and stretched his body!

Su Chen was busy in the study until the sun set.

He walked out of the study to find Zhang Long and asked him to find the bamboo craftsman in the village to continue making bamboo signs.

Su Chen went to find Changle. He wanted to go to the fields to see how the sweet potatoes and potatoes were doing.

If it takes three months to be full-term, it will take more than 20 days. He remembered that they were planted in mid-April.

The two walked in the fields. There were no villagers working now. They only saw 20 or 30 people cutting sweet potato vines, probably from the pig farm.

Arriving at the sweet potato field, the leaves of the sweet potato vines near the roots have slowly turned yellow, which should be a sign of an imminent harvest.

The potatoes are similar, and the branches and leaves are also showing signs of withering.

As for the corn, he doesn't understand it. He has never seen this thing with a stalk, so he will just wait for the harvest next month.

"Su Chen, when do you plan to harvest these grains?" Changle saw that Su Chen seemed to be laughing all the time, which felt a bit strange.

"I don't have much experience in this, so let's calculate it based on three months. If we harvest it in the middle of next month, the yield will be higher."

I haven't planted these, but I have only seen them in the unreal world, so I will harvest them in three months as the system says.

"Why are you laughing all the time?" Changle finally couldn't help asking.

Su Chen laughed, "Nothing, I just want to laugh when I look at these sweet potatoes, I'm happy."

How can I not laugh? The main thing is to think of ways to resettle the victims.

Now I just have to wait for the victims to come to my door, and it would be better if there are more!
