Chapter 677

It is said that it is a stone city, but it is actually impossible to have no wooden structures at all. If that is the case, it will not reflect the luxury and sophistication of the city. Therefore, the forest in the upper reaches of the river has become the source of wood for the city, and there are also local people who can burn bricks and tiles. Clay, it seems that the system has specially set up such a place to provide convenience for Master Su.

The newly selected location is very suitable for building a huge city.

The separatist also quickly reported the results of the site selection to Grand Duke Stan. Grand Duke Stan had no idea about such things. He felt that as long as the city was built, it didn't matter where it was.
If it can be built next to the river, you can go boating and write lyrics when you have nothing to do, which is not a bad thing when you think about it.

So another 5000 million gold coins were allocated, which means that you start to do it, I want to see my city completed sooner.

The first step of site selection for the construction of Stan City was completed, but the second step was more difficult.

Su Mo must enlist at least [-] young men to work as coolies for his city construction, which will take at least half a month-of course, it is impossible to be as troublesome in the game as in reality, otherwise even if there are modern machines and tools, at least better It takes years to create a city out of thin air.

But the amount of [-] cannot be discounted.

Unless Laifu uses the monster shop for customization, everything in Stan City has to be done step by step.

In the quarry alone, there are thousands of people working here to get rocks day and night. Even though mountains can be blown up, the stones that come out of the blast must be polished to pass.

Stone was needed for walls and buildings, and all roads were paved with stone slabs.

This is not something that can be resolved in a short while, and it is likely to last until the construction of Stan City is completed.

After the stones are quarried, someone needs to transport them.

For now, only the most primitive mode of transportation can be used. After the stone is polished, it is pulled to the pier by the river and carried on a raft. down.

The required manpower is a very large number. For example, a raft can hold 2-3 large rocks at most, but it needs 4-6 people to operate it. In addition to loading and unloading, it takes hundreds of people to go out. .

"It's a waste of people's money, aren't we being too cruel." Tian Dazhuang said helplessly.

Under the instruction of Grand Duke Star, tens of thousands of young and strong were dragged out of their homes by the soldiers, and they were driving into the temporary camp in groups. The soldiers beat and kicked, and the whips cracked, while the young Zhuang Laoli was also listless, as if he didn't expect to go back from this Shura field at all.

The Freedom Federation is the freedom of the rich, but the status of the poor has become even more embarrassing as the manors planted cotton and other industrial cash crops, and external processing factories sprang up everywhere.

The nobility had labor rights "by law" to the residents of the territory.

That is, I have a job, and you must help me for free, which is basically the same as the master and the slave.

The better nobles will give the laborers a full meal, and the ones that are close to it even require the laborers to bring their own tools and food for work, and the construction period is very strict. Supervisors waving whips are the most basic configuration on site.

"Don't worry, we have money!" Master Su now completely regards himself as a money-capable person.

When the enlistment of [-] civilian husbands was completed, all of them were driven to the small square, with a large mass of heads in the dark, surrounded by guards holding bright weapons.

Su Mo walked slowly surrounded by a group of people.

The peasants looked at him with hatred. It is spring, and there is not enough food.

Everyone tried every means to plan food in the mountains, forests and rivers, and some of them even challenged ferocious beasts, so that their wives and children would not starve to death.

Now a subjugation order has gathered them all here.

At least during the period of hard labor, they have no way to fulfill the obligations of a husband or father. If it is worse, they may have to occupy the rations that are not enough for their wives and children.

"I am Lord Iron Horse!" Su Mo stood on the stage. It was not the first time he had faced so many people, but his mood was still agitated. After all, there had never been so many people looking at him with hatred.

No one said anything below, and many people were complaining in their hearts.

What does this sand sculpture nobleman want to do, maybe he still has to remember who he is, what kind of Lord Iron Horse, I have never heard of it, okay?

A fart lord is too embarrassed to come out and embarrass himself.

"I know you are all unwilling, why, I want to know why, does anyone dare to stand up and say what is in your heart, and talk about why you are unwilling, is there any?" Su Mo asked loudly .

In the end, no one said a word, even the sound of breathing was as thin as a gossamer.

There is no sound, no one dares to make a sound, like lambs waiting to be sentenced, numb, only daring to complain wildly in their hearts, if it is the kind of bubble chat game decades ago, everyone's head is now It is estimated that a lot of bubbles can appear.

"No one said yes, so I'll tell you." Master Su was very embarrassed, he thought that someone would stand up.

No one paid any attention to him. Everyone just wanted to go to work early and go home after work to see if their wives and children were starving to death.

"What you are unwilling to do is that you have paid for your labor without any return. If I enlist you here, your family's livelihood will be cut off, right?" Su Mo roared with hatred for iron and steel: "You Your life is almost gone, and your job is almost lost, why do you have to swallow your anger like this."

Not only the people below, even the people sent by Grand Duke Stan were dumbfounded.

Does this guy know what he's talking about?
Fortunately, Su Mo quickly changed the subject and continued: "I will not enlist you to work in vain, because you are the subjects of Grand Duke Stan, not my Lord Iron Horse. If I enlist you to build Stan City, you will Pay you salaries."

Everyone couldn't believe their ears.

And such a good thing?
"According to the work performance, each person will pay half a gold coin to one gold coin a day, work in groups, and conduct collective assessment. The specific rules will be in charge of by my special envoy—His Excellency Yunfei." Su Mo finally revealed his plan.

He estimated that these folk husbands were borrowed, so that there would be a reason to send money.

Then set the basic rules, as long as you work, you will get paid, but you must do better to get more.

At least five silver coins are paid in salary. If the construction period is half a month, there will be an income of seven or eight gold coins, which is worth the income of these young people for a whole year or even three years.

It seems a lot, but Su Mo only paid 10,000+ gold coins.

Compared with his total construction cost of two hundred million gold coins, this amount of money is nothing to mention, but these hard laborers below couldn't believe the news they heard.

How can labor be paid for?

One coin a day?
This respected noble lord is joking, is he planning to gather everyone together and kill them when the construction period is over, and then waste the huge sum of money.
