Chapter 820: Connecting the North and the South (Additional updates for accumulated 900 monthly tickets)

After the simple daze, what emerged from Zhou Xu's chest was an uncontrollable ecstasy.

The Pioneer, which departed from the port of Black Moon City, appeared here after a long voyage. What does this mean?

This shows that from south to north, this large lake directly connects the New World and the Old World!

This is really important to Zhou Xu.

Nowadays, they have a big problem in Dazhou due to terrain and environmental problems, and that is the transportation problem.

Between the New World and the Old World, the transportation of materials must necessarily cross mountainous areas.

In this mountainous area, even for mountain people who are familiar with the mountains, it would take half a month to climb over, let alone transport goods.

This has also greatly increased the transportation costs between the two regions, as has the transfer of population.

In response to this situation, Zhou Xu's long-standing response has been to make the two regions operate as independently as possible, reducing material and even population interactions.

This is obviously not conducive to their internal development in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but Zhou Xu has no choice. The terrain is there, let alone in this era. Mountains like this, even in modern times, are a big trouble.

But now it’s better. As long as they make sure that the big lakes are connected, they can open water transportation routes directly in Dazhou!

Not only will the efficiency of resource transportation and population transfer be greatly improved, but the expenditure on this area will also be significantly reduced.

A water transport route can directly connect two areas that were originally difficult to link! How could this not make Zhou Xu excited?

Sitting in the Qinzheng Palace, looking at the report in front of him, Zhou Xu could not calm down for a long time.

Taking a deep breath, and after his emotions calmed down, Zhou Xu's first thing was to order shipbuilding and continue shipbuilding!

Elevate an entire shipbuilding project directly to the highest priority level, and let all domestic funding resources be tilted towards this project.

After it was determined that Green Forest City and Black Moon City could unlock water transportation routes here, the value of this project in Zhou Xu's place had already soared into the sky like a rocket.

The transportation capacity of a Pioneer is no longer enough in his opinion.

In the end, the Pioneer is mainly a ship built to open up new areas and explore them. In essence, it is not a cargo ship.

But now, what Zhou Xu needs is undoubtedly a cargo ship with stronger transportation capacity!

At the same time, a port will be built at Green Forest City to facilitate the docking of subsequent ships.

“Pass my order and ask Liu Jiefang to start training pigeons that can travel between Greenwood City and Black Moon City.”

In the past, I felt that the distance between the two sides was too far, and training was not only troublesome, but also very difficult. It was difficult, but the situation was different now. They suddenly discovered that Black Moon City was not that far away from them.

At this distance, efficient communication can be carried out through homing pigeons.

"As for the Pioneer, let them continue to complete the exploration of the waterway and draw a map of the waterway."

Excited, but Zhou Xu's mind is still clear, and now he will explore all the waterway areas Exploring and thus improving the map is the most important thing.

When the Pioneer is equipped with a crew and survival supplies, its own transportation capacity is not much, so there is no rush.

The relevant orders were quickly issued directly from Qinzheng Palace.

At the shipyard in Black Moon City, after successfully building the Pioneer, the members of the shipbuilding department received the rewards and took a long vacation before returning to their respective posts. .

After all, in order to drive out this big ship, they had never rested except eating and sleeping since the project was officially launched.

Zhou Xu has always disliked idle labor. The shipbuilding plan here is not just about building one ship.

This large lake is so large, and there are many lake islands in the lake. In the future, internal development will require at least three or four large ships to provide them with transportation capacity.

So the members who had finished their vacation started the construction work of the second ship slowly.

“According to the requirements in the plan, starting from this second ship, we will focus on improving the transportation capacity. If you have any ideas, please share them. While everyone is here, we Let’s discuss it.” In the office of the shipyard, the minister leaned on the office chair at the head of the conference table, blew on the hot tea that had just been brewed in the cup, and leisurely announced the topics of the first meeting after the official start of the project.

The team members were in a comfortable state during this period. It was obvious that they had not yet adjusted from the long vacation.

If nothing else happens, they can hold the meeting all morning.

Even as we drove to the back, some members began to wonder what to have for dinner after get off work.

At this moment, there was a movement outside the dock, which caught their attention.

Hearing the movement, the minister casually nodded to someone.

"Xiao Zhang, go out and see what's going on."

Xiao Zhang responded when his name was called and trotted out to confirm the situation.

The location of their office inside the dock is basically facing the main door. As soon as you leave the office, you can see the situation at the main door at a glance.

At this moment, workers were moving boxes of goods into their dock.

Xiao Zhang's expression was a little confused when he saw this battle, and he hurried over here. Just when he was about to arrest someone and ask what was going on, a figure came in from outside.

Xiao Zhang’s expression changed instantly when he saw the other person’s appearance clearly.

During this period, the other party apparently also saw Xiao Zhang, and then waved to him.

"I remember you, Xiao Zhang, right?"

Seeing that the other party remembered him, Xiao Zhang was immediately flattered.

"Yes, yes, I am Xiao Zhang. Why are you here, City Lord?"

At this moment, the person who walked in was none other than Zhang Xiaoshan.

After Black Moon City was upgraded to a city, Zhang Xiaoshan was also promoted to city lord, and his every move became more calm and sophisticated.

Looking at Xiao Zhang, who looked nervous and stuttered a bit when speaking, Zhang Xiaoshan was not surprised and instead asked with a smile.

“Where is your minister? I’ll come find him.”

"Lord City Lord, please wait a moment. I will call the minister right away."

As he spoke, Xiao Zhang ran away quickly and rushed into their office as fast as possible. Everyone inside was startled, and even the minister spilled a little of the tea in his hand, making him frown and look slightly displeased.

"What are you doing? I'm so frizzy and not calm at all. Is there an extraordinary creature chasing you behind me? Look at me, Minister, I can keep my composure no matter what happens."
< br>Hearing this, Xiao Zhang panted and quickly shook his head.

“The city, the city lord is here!”

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Zhang felt his eyes blurred. When he came to his senses, their minister had already rushed out. As soon as he turned around, he was the only one left in the office.

“…”
