Chapter 977 Building Green Forest Town
To build a green forest town with nurseries as the mainstay on a barren island like Liandao, the amount of labor and cost to be paid is extremely high.
Fortunately, at noon on February 10th in the fifth year of Tianxuan, 50 households with a total of about 300 residents came to Qu Mao's camp, accompanied by the security forces. Perhaps Qu Mao was camping on the proposed construction site of Lulin Town. The efficiency of the various departments of the territory is extremely high.
At about nine o'clock in the evening on February 9th in the fifth year of Tianxuan, Li Xiang took 100 craftsmen to start the preparatory work for the construction of Lulin Town at a location about 500 meters away from the campsite of Qu Mao and others. The torches were lit all night .
At dawn, another 100 craftsmen were transferred by Li Xiang to participate in the construction of Greenwood Town.
The 50 newly arrived residents did not even set up tents, but began to collect the horse manure excreted by the 300 war horses in Qu Mao's guard the night before, which made Qu Mao feel embarrassed.
As more and more construction personnel from Lvlin Town gathered, Qu Mao's temporary camp was also getting bigger and bigger. Except for the 300 fifth-tier palace guards whose main job was to patrol the temporary camp and feed the horses, the rest of them worked in their own way. There are various jobs.
There are more than 300 residents in 50 households urgently relocated by Jia Sixie, Franklin King, Jia Chongde, etc. They should take care of their children and cook. However, at least one or two adult residents in each household mainly work on crushing stones. Blocks, mixed with plant ash and horse manure, retting the soil for cultivating tree seedlings.
Although Qu Mao will not participate in the specific composting and mixing of soil, but there is no other place to go now, so Qu Mao has been staying in the temporary camp built by Lulin Town. The 200 craftsmen will only return to the camp when they are resting. Most of the time it was at the construction site in Greenwood Town.
Li Xiang's original arrangement was to build the first-tier city wall first, but Qu Mao stopped it after the first-tier city wall was completed.
Qu Mao asked Li Xiang to build the town hall, material warehouse, granary and medical room first, and then excavate the square surrounded by the town hall, material warehouse and granary into a large reservoir.
In the past when villages were built in Yihou Territory, the general reservoirs were 10 meters wide, 10 meters long and 5 meters deep. However, Qu Mao asked Li Xiang to dig 30 meters for the reservoir on the town hall square of Lulin Township. Wide, 50 meters long and 10 meters deep cistern.
Although Li Xiang didn't quite understand the reason for Qu Mao's changes, he still made the changes according to Qu Mao's request. He not only continued to recruit craftsmen from the construction site of Liandao Reservoir to participate in the construction, but also hired about 240 fifth-rank palace guards to participate. building.
Lian Island is a barren island. Although the place Qu Mao chose to build the Green Forest Town is in the wild, it is basically not dangerous. Therefore, the main job of the 300 fifth-level palace guards here is to feed the war horses. Use this time to earn extra money. Qu Mao didn't want to stop him from getting paid.
In addition to digging a large reservoir, Qu Mao then asked Li Xiang to dig the various ditches he planned according to the planning and construction drawings of Lulin Town.
Qu Mao did not waste the stones obtained by digging the reservoirs and ditches, and ordered the craftsmen to crush the stones to a size smaller than a fist, and spread them in the area where ditches and reservoirs were not dug in Lulin Town. After the residents of Greenwood Town move in in the future, these crushed stones can be used as raw materials for soil.
In addition, in the area separated by ditches, Qu Mao ordered the craftsmen to build a large number of three-tiered courtyards. Each courtyard can only house one family. The side length of Lulin Town is only 1.5 kilometers, but 10,000 third-tiered courtyards do not exist. any problem.
Even if there are only 6 people in a household, there will definitely be no problem in relocating 60,000 people in Lulin Town, not to mention the greening and seedling industry in Lulin Town.
From the afternoon of February 9th in the fifth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao took Franklin Jin, Jia Sixie, Jia Chongde, Hill Farren, and Liu Sansi to the proposed construction site of Greenwood Town and called Li Xiang. In just four days on the 13th, excluding the 300 temporary helpers of the fifth-tier court guards, the number of craftsmen who built Lvlin Town has increased to more than 500, and a large number of third-tier courtyards have been completed in the form of residents on duty.
The ditch connecting the super large reservoir on the square outside the town hall of Lulin Township has been dug seven to eighty-eight, and the top surface of the three-meter-wide ditch is not too narrow, so a large number of stone bridges must be built in the future. The current construction Workers just took four-meter-long planks to improvise the bridge.
In addition, with the progress of construction in Lulin Town, Qu Mao excavated a 20-meter-long, 20-meter-wide, and 10-meter-deep reservoir in each of the four corners of Lulin Town, which were connected through intricately intersecting ditches.
In each of the three-tiered courtyards, Qu Mao asked the stonemasons to dig independent water storage wells that were not connected to ditches. The diameter of the water storage wells was only one meter, but the shallowest one was 15 meters deep. 20 meters deep.
Empty Island is a barren island. No matter how deep you dig, there is no water. It is also a convenient condition for the construction of Green Forest Town. However, as long as it rains on Lian Island, no matter how big or small the rain is, at least the water storage wells of these households will be the first to store water. Because during the construction, Qu Mao ordered the masons to design the ground in the third-tier courtyard, and the design cheating system alone gave a reward of 1000 cheating points.
The rainy season in Yihou Territory is from September to November, but there is no rain at all other times. As long as it rains, the water storage wells and reservoirs in Greenwood Town can start working.
On February 15th, the fifth year of Tianxuan, all 50 households in the temporary camps outside Greenwood Town had moved into Greenwood Town, becoming the first batch of residents in Greenwood Town, and other residents who had been relocated by Jia Sixie, Franklin King and others also moved in one after another. .
Qu Mao then asked Li Xiang to start the construction of the city wall enclosing Lulin Town.
Looking at the well-established but not many residents of Lulin Town, the administrative department did not even appoint the mayor of Lulin Town, so Qu Mao asked Liu Sansi to organize the heroes of the administrative department to use backpacks to transport water to Lulin Town. Just keep the cistern in front of the Town Hall and the cisterns at the four corners dry.
At this time, Qu Mao let several heroes leave, and asked Liu Sansi to prepare for the mayor candidate, and at the same time asked Xinping to build Yiping Inn in Lulin Town.
In fact, the construction time of Greenwood Town was only about a week. In addition to obtaining a town in Yihou Territory, Qu Mao also obtained an additional reward of nearly 100,000 cheating points in the cheating system.
