Chapter 453. Licheng
Wang Hou came from later generations. As long as he had enough investment, he could create a scenic spot for you. So under his command, these Wuhuan Han people had seen what a tyrant was.
To be honest, when the king initially decided to settle in Jinzhou, everyone was muttering dissatisfaction and despair. What was there in this place? Jinzhou, which was in the sea collapse period, was not as dry as in later generations. It was full of swamps. It rained heavily when there was nothing to do. The rivers were densely packed. From time to time, the sea water poured back along the Daling River and flooded the land. It can be said that it was suitable for farming and there was no environment suitable for survival.
However, in this despair, miracles happened little by little in their hands.
My father-in-law is still considerate. The military rations in the village have not been moved away, and there are about 100,000 stones left. In addition, the remaining ones in Lianjiaocheng will support this autumn. There is no problem until the spring next year. Anyway, it is too late to reclaim this year, and it is in vain to raise more than 100,000 people. Wang Hou simply decided to use work as a labor force, and I will work!
In order to eat soaked rice and dried fish, tens of thousands of strong men had to become employees of Wang's company and went to nearby Songling Heishan to dig stones for him.
At this level, the Great Wall and the Imperial Mausoleum were built in this era. Early in the morning, I saw tens of thousands of people carrying hoes and baskets into the mountains. The stones, no matter the big or small, were stuck with bird cakes, they were all loaded into the basket and transported out. Some of them went to Daling River to dig river sand and pick up pebbles. Fortunately, it is not illegal to dig river sand these days, otherwise it would be enough to get down to these employees and Wang Hou, the boss, to get inside.
It's so powerful that in a month, the good Songling made this group of people dig like a pockmark, with holes everywhere. The river water flowed into the big pit left by the dug sand. The Daling River's river channel was widened more than one meter. Then it was transported out, and the sand and stones piled at the foot of the Black Mountain were high and two small hills.
If the boss who was engaged in construction in later generations saw these river sand and pebbles, he would probably be jealous of the mouth. But for this era, sand and stones were sand and stones, Wang Hou didn't say anything, and everyone didn't have the heart to ask. Anyway, two meals a day are enough, and there are salted fish produced in Qingzhou to eat, and then pick some wild vegetables, so you can survive.
However, this month, Wang Houwang did not waste time in Liaodong. He ran back to Qingzhou. In order to expand production, he expanded the production rights of cement and specially approved several Langya gentry construction factories. Moreover, Ning Yuan, the slag after the smelting of iron ore in Rizhaocheng, was piled up and waited for his cement workshop to slowly deal with it, and refused to takeout. Now it is also supplying it cheaply. In short, after a while, Wang Hou doubled the stimulation of cement production in Qingzhou.
In mid-July, he returned to Liaodong with a large number of ships filled with steel and concrete. The last materials were prepared, and the rest was to roll up his sleeves and dry them!
…………
The first step in building a city is also an extremely important step, that is, selecting a city site.
"The Emperor Taishang is as anxious as the rule of law, and Taiyi Emperor manifests itself! Looking for dragons and dividing gold to see the mountain, one cluster of entanglement is a cluster of gates! The dragon cave’s heavenly spirits gather, and they are in this gate for thousands of years. Mami, Mami coaxes! Da!"
"Forehead……"
This person was invited by Wang Hou from the Eternal Fire Church in the Island City. An old Taoist surnamed Hu. According to Wang Hou's "Senior Brother" and now supports Brother Li Dao, who is now supporting Laoshan Palace, among the Yunyou Taoist priests who come to hold orders, Feng Shui is no stronger than Master Hu. Therefore, Wang Hou spent a lot of money and promised to build the new Eternal Fire Temple in Jinzhou to be presided over by him, so he invited the person.
But at this moment, the old Taoist robe was quite precise, but this ceremony was completely different from the way of watching Zhang Tianshi, a row of rituals in Longhu Mountain, on TV in later generations. It was similar to the shaman wizard and god-man who danced a great god in the northeast of the future. In short, it was just one word, unreliable!
Not only did he feel guilty, but also the general manager of the Liaodong branch who followed him, even the prefect Zhen Yao, was guilty and watched in confusion for a long time. He couldn't help but bow heavily with a bitter face behind him.
"Mr. Zhou, is this person reliable? As the officials saw him, he was no different from those demonic ways that spoke of the Yellow Turbans!"
Wang Hou was also guilty, but why did he be willing to lose face of his leader at this time? His chest was straight, and he looked like a pig brother was "sharp" and replied with a smile.
"You can do it?"
"The state minister, the lower officials do not understand Feng Shui and astrology!"
"If it doesn't work, why are you blind? Go and thrust!"
With a resentful face, the goatee-bearded old face sprayed Wang Hou's saliva, Zhen Yao shrank back resentfully, but when he turned around, Wang Hou himself couldn't help but feel irritated. Is this master reliable? Don't choose a tyrannical house for this year's flood and next year's earthquake!
Just as Wang Hou was fetching water from fifteen buckets in his heart, the old Taoist Hu finally asked the god to go on. He was astonished as he was so epilepsy that his body trembled. Then he suddenly suddenly slammed the Tai Chi sword, which was also produced by Rizhao, buzzed and stabbed it on a small mound leaning on the bank of the Ling River, grinning and screaming.
"Ha! The Emperor of Jinwu showed his spirit. This place is surrounded by mountains and water, facing north and south, with a terrain like a turtle, lying on the side with a foundation, Dui on the hexagram, and the land is empty and sinking, and you can find a Fengshui treasure land for building a city! Congratulations to the governor of the state!"
"Forehead……"
To be honest, Wang Hou couldn't understand a word about the yin and yang and five elements of this old guy, but he chose this place to satisfy Wang Hou. First of all, this land is located on a river beside a river beside the Daling River. Judging from the terrain, if a flood breaks out in the upstream, he must first hit the south bank of the river. The city located in the heart of the north bank just avoided Hong Feng.
Then I can't tell whether the land looks like the Turtle King Hou, but the land is really a small piece of land. If there is a flood, there will be a height difference buffer there.
More importantly, Wang Hou really has no good geological exploration talents! This old Taoist doesn’t want his Taoist temple to either flood or earthquake! Standing at the place where Old Taoist Hu was inserted his sword, looking around, Wang Hou finally slapped his thigh, and that’s it!
You have to do it!
…………
The only specialty of a group of Han people who were plundered to Hu is farming. They are better at cooking crops than Hu people. They are really good at cooking craftsmen here and they know nothing about construction. Fortunately, although the architectural aesthetics of Wangzhou Mu are still not accepted by the mainstream, Qingzhou has reduced three harbor cities, and they have captured a lot of foreman-level talents in cement construction!
As these Qingzhou men pointed and figured, the Wuhuan Hanmin, who had picked up stones for a month, finally got some new work. He first dug a huge rectangular trench more than four meters wide, with a circumference of more than one thousand five hundred meters and a depth of more than three meters. He happened to face the Daling River and wrapped a small hill.
Then dig a hole...
In the trench, square lattices were cut out from the flat ground. The big men from outside the frontier who were digging the pits were so excited every day that they kept shouting whether these Qingzhou people were rabbits! They were tying everywhere!
What made them even more speechless was that the next step of digging these pits was to fill the pits. Qingzhou, which was transported upstream from the boat, did not know why it was the gray bag of mud in Qingzhou. It combined the sand and gravel produced locally and poured it into these pits. In the sound of hula, the water was actually heated up and became thumping. With this choking heat, several strong men carried large iron spoons and had to stir it up.
There was also Qingzhou guy next to him watching. It would be better if there was too much dust, and it would be better if there was too little dust. It would be more serious!
And after stirring for a long time, the dilute soil full of stone sand was asked to hit the wheelbarrow, push it into the digged trench outside, and fall down towards the inserted steel bars.
What is this going to do?
A wheelbarrow was pushed in the crowd, and a particularly conspicuous strong man turned the car down in a flash, then stared at two glass ball-sized eyes, looking at the mud that looked like Ye Xiang, stunned.
Chapter completed!
