Chapter 808: The aura of the upstart is in full swing
It is obviously unrealistic for Manxianglou to move to the wood elf village.
Not to mention that Manxiang House is a state-owned industry and is not for sale. Even if it can be sold, move Manxiang House to the Wood Elf Village. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just talk about the daily supply of ingredients. How to solve this problem?
Facing the whimsical idea of the wood elves, Xiao Li, the receptionist, made them give up the idea with a simple question.
After the season turns to summer, the daylight hours are longer. It is estimated that there are still three hours before dark. Of course, they have no intention of being idle. They get on the carriage and go straight to the market, obviously preparing for a shopping spree. .
During this period, Xiao Li gave me a friendly reminder.
"I personally suggest that you don't buy any large items such as furniture this time. Transportation in the forest is inconvenient, and how to move it back is also a problem."
"This will Our construction team has already started to build the road. When the road is completed, we can pay some tolls and have the carriage deliver the things directly."
Listening to Xiao Li's words, including Locke. The wood elves nodded subconsciously, feeling that what they said made sense.
However, even if they did not buy large items, their shopping enthusiasm did not diminish at all. In less than two hours, the things they bought had already filled two delivery trucks. carriage, and their shopping for the day has come to an end for the time being.
It's not that they have bought everything, but that their money bags have been emptied by now.
After all, we buy according to the population of the whole village, so the quantity is very large.
Even if the unit price of an object is only one copper coin, if one hundred pieces are purchased, the price will rise directly to one silver coin.
Not to mention that most of the things they want to buy are not as cheap as one copper, and the quantity is more than a hundred pieces.
During the period, looking at the two fully loaded carriages, Xiao Li once again issued a friendly reminder.
"Since these two carriages are full, why not hire two coachmen to deliver the items in these two carriages first? In order to avoid sending them all at once, the workload will be piled up and it will be difficult to move."
"It makes sense. Let's hire two coachmen to send those two carts back first. Also, I feel that the carriages for transporting goods may not be enough. We probably need to rent five more carriages!"< br>
Obviously, even the wood elves themselves underestimated their shopping abilities.
It turns out that the five cargo carriages they rented before were indeed not enough. When they returned, fifteen cargo carriages were filled with purchased items. Li Du couldn't help but wipe his hands in cold sweat.
After this period of time, the wood elves are really spending money like water. This crazy purchase, coupled with daily expenses, as well as the cost of renting a house, a car, and renting a person, it is too expensive to say the least. Tens of thousands of silver coins.
Even Xiao Li, who had been mentally prepared in advance, couldn't help but feel a little jealous now.
With the money the wood elves spent during this period, he felt that he would never be able to earn it in his next life.
But it’s useless to be jealous. Who can let someone really have a mine at home, and become rich overnight?
Now the aura of the nouveau riche is in full swing. Even the wood elf clan leader Locke, who was restrained at the beginning, is now completely relaxed.
At night, lying on a dry and comfortable bed, Locke looked at ease.
During this time, the sound from the bed next door came over.
"Chief, how about we stay a few more days?"
"Well, stay a few more days..."
Hearing this, the man lying there Locke subconsciously agreed.
The time he spent in Dazhou was indeed very comfortable. Now he finally understood why those gangsters didn’t want to go back at all. Not to mention them, even he himself felt the same. I have the urge to just live here and forget about it. But he was still the clan leader after all. Thinking of the clansmen who were still waiting for them to return in the village, Locke reacted and said angrily...
"Stay longer? Including the time on the road back and forth, we have been in Dazhou for almost a month. No, we have to go back. We will set off early tomorrow morning. Go to bed early tonight. Don't think too much about it. Some of them are gone!”
There was no words all night, and early the next morning, under Locke’s supervision, the wood elves had their last breakfast at Manxiang House, and then took the carriage and officially set off. The way back.
When Locke and the others arrived outside the Basin Forest, the logging team that was busy here had just completed the logging work in the area.
After that, when the engineering team will repair the ground here, a simple dirt road that can be used by horse-drawn carriages will be completed.
As for the wood cut during the period, all of it is sent to Green Forest City, where there is a ready-made wood processing factory. After the processing is completed, it will be sent over and can be directly used in the construction of the subsequent mining site.
If there are still more, send them to the surrounding mountain camps. The construction of the camps there also requires some materials.
The work here is not smooth. I believe that the mining farm here will officially start work before winter.
At the same time, in the mountain area, without the threat of the wind weasel, the exploration team quickly completed the exploration of the remaining mountainous areas, updated the map, and sent it to Zhou Xu. inside.
Looking at the updated map, it is not difficult to see that when exploring the mountainous area to the south, the outermost ring of mountains is one of the mountains surrounding the basin forest. These two Regions are connected to some extent.
Of course, the mountain wall facing the Basin Forest is too vertical and steep to go down. If you want to enter the Basin Forest, you can only go through the canyon outside Green Forest City.
Zhou Xu was not too surprised by this update of intelligence.
When he discovered the basin forest and looked at the surrounding mountains, he already had some conjectures in his mind. Now he can only say that his conjectures have been confirmed.
After that, time passed quietly, and we passed the hottest summer of the year. As the temperature gradually dropped, the season entered autumn, which symbolizes harvest.
In recent times, grain harvest reports from various farms in the New World have been delivered to Zhou Xu one after another.
According to the latest statistics, the New World's grain harvest this autumn is enough to achieve self-sufficiency under normal circumstances.
To put it simply, according to the grain output here, it is no problem to maintain the daily consumption of the people, but they cannot save much grain.
This is inseparable from the improvement in people's living standards after Zhou Xu came to power.
After all, when Yan Sheng was in power, many people might only eat one meal a day, and they might not even be full.
But since Zhou Xu came to power, the people here in the New World have basically been living a life of two full meals a day.
This kind of life is undoubtedly wonderful for the people, but it also leads to an increase in food consumption.
The current situation has formed...
But this is not a difficult task for Zhou Xu.
Anyway, there is no problem with the grain production in the Old Continent. There is no grain in the New Continent, so just transfer it from the Old Continent.
Under this premise, the complete recovery of grain production capacity in the New World will undoubtedly further reduce the pressure on grain transportation on both sides.
It allows him to free up more manpower and use it for development, which is undoubtedly a good thing.
