Chapter 316： industrial area

  Chapter 316 Industrial Zone

  Turn on the faucet and look at the clear water flowing out of it. It is not the first time for Abelson to use this thing, but he still sighs that this thing called tap water is really convenient.

   It is said that Winter City has installed running water in every household, which is really... a luxury behavior!

   "Waterworks, power plants, military camps..."

Abelson, who came to Cold Winter City, is currently living in the top suite of the Cold Winter Hotel. The servants and guards in the palace are currently arranged to live in the hotel, and the Tiran Knights and Guard Knights are in temporary camps A separate military camp was established on the periphery.

  David didn't care about the difference between nobles and commoners, but the nobles were unwilling to squeeze into the camp with the commoners. These nobles had more or less family backgrounds, and this gave birth to a new business.

That is to hire workers from Winter City and Cybertronians for the nobles of the capital of Tilan, and then pay the great mage Jaina Proudmoore to send them back to the capital of Tilan, and then bury them in the ruins. The property was dug up.

   The hired workers, the Cybertronians, and the archmage Jaina who was in charge of the teleportation all get a handsome reward.

   The nobles who regained part of their family property will directly purchase real estate in Winter City.

   After all, Winter City has prepared a lot of new houses in advance, but there has never been a situation where nobles have money but cannot buy a house.

  Even King Abelson found David, hoping that he could send some Cybertronians to help transfer various assets in his castle.

  This also reminded David that there were quite a few high-ranking noble families who were completely killed in the explosion in King Tilan's capital, and all those assets became ownerless. This is a windfall picked up for nothing, and there is no reason to let it go!

  So the relatively leisurely Decepticons were arranged by David to dig money, and the Autobots with better tempers were sent to help Sheriff Elizabeth.

Although the civilians who came from King Tilan are still living under centralized management in temporary camps, the wealthy nobles already have their own houses and have officially lived in the city of Winter. The 'rules' know nothing and they can have an impact on law and order.

  Because there are too many people...

   "Is the population counted?"

  Sitting in the office, sitting opposite is Wetherby-Swan, the administrative officer of Winter City. Currently, Wetherby's main job is to settle the new residents who have just migrated.

"Still counting, I think the government affairs department of Winter City needs to recruit some additional staff." Wetherby looked a little tired, but he didn't seem to be dissatisfied. Instead, he looked very energetic: "But as far as the current Judging from the data, the number of people who migrated from the capital of Tilan will not be less than 80,000."

  The arrival of a large population gave him the feeling of governing a real 'city'. The population of Winter City was too small before. For Wetherby, governing a town with such a small population was not a challenge at all.

  With the arrival of the population of King Tilan, the population of Winter City has increased many times, and the workload of various departments is also increasing. Several departments in Winter City do need to increase their manpower.

  David not only approved the government department's proposal to increase staff, but also approved the recruitment plan of the public security department.

   In addition, David also ordered the expansion plan for the waterworks.

   The power plant is ignored. There is no need to expand the power plant using the Ark reactor in a short period of time. When the power plant needs to be expanded, maybe Winter City has entered the interstellar age.

   "The real problem is how to solve the living problems of nearly 100,000 people."

  All to farm? It's not impossible, but if so many people open up wasteland and farm land, Winter City must carry out "diversified" planting, and they can't all plant the same crops in a swarm.

   In this regard, the officials of Winter City need to intervene. Otherwise, if farmers are allowed to choose by themselves, they will definitely give priority to crops they are familiar with.

  In addition to various grains and vegetables, a group of fruit farmers can be developed, followed by cotton planting and other industries.

   "In addition, with enough population, the industrial zone plan can also be implemented."

   It’s not that David doesn’t want to vigorously develop industry in Winter City, but there was no such condition before. With such a small number of people, the production line of the arsenal can barely be filled. What kind of factory do you expect to be able to open?

   Now that there are people, various factories can be opened.

These factories not only allow Winter City to produce a variety of goods, but also create a lot of jobs, provide income for a large number of civilians, guarantee their income needs, and ensure that they can live normally in Winter City .

   "My lord, what other factories will be built besides the steel factory?" The steel factory has always been on the schedule, so there is no need to ask additional questions.

   "Clothing, footwear, bed bedding, etc." At present, the clothing, bedding and other products of Winter City are still in the relatively 'primitive' hand-made era.

  In the earlier period, it was distributed uniformly, and all kinds of materials were purchased from other worlds.

  As for whether the existing shops will be affected?

   Actually not, because the products produced by the factory are mass-produced on the premise of ensuring the basic quality of the products.

  This kind of mass-produced clothing is likely to be looked down upon by nobles. It is produced to ensure the needs of ordinary people, and the price of the product will not be too high, so that everyone can afford it.

  The same is true for bedding and other items. In this way, with sufficient food and comfortable and warm houses, the basic life of the residents will be guaranteed.

  At that time, you can consider building more factories to meet other needs of the people, such as bicycle factories, or even automobile factories?

  After chatting with Wetherby for a short while, before David had time to get up and leave the chair, Gareth Stanton found him again.

   "What's the matter?"

   Gareth's recruitment is naturally a military matter, but there has been no military action in Winter City recently, right? Although the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment was still mopping up the orcs on the northern plains, it was Megatron, not Gareth Stanton, who was in charge of this work.

  After going out for a stroll, the Winter Knights continued their slow expansion work, and by the way, they also watched the soldiers from the capital of Tilan to ensure that they would not cause trouble.

  Thinking of this, David suddenly guessed why Gareth was looking for him.

   "My lord, what should I do with the army of the capital of Tiran, including the Tiran Knights?"

   "..."

   It sounds like they are going to deal with prisoners of war. Although the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards are not prisoners of war, the current situation seems to be the same.

Especially the private guards of the nobles. This group of troops was directly controlled. Even if some nobles expressed dissatisfaction, David did not have the slightest intention of backing down: either take your guards and get out of Winter City. If you live in the city, you have to abide by the rules here.

   As for the specific rules? Of course, the lord said there are rules, so there are rules!

  Because the lord of Winter City is the **** who resurrected them and gave them new life, this part of the nobles are not stupid enough to dare to challenge David, which is why the nobles' private guards accepted the vaccination management honestly.

   But this is not a long-term solution, and the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards can't be left outside the city to keep watch, right?

   "Do you have any ideas?"

   "Reorganized into the Winter Army."

These are the most elite soldiers of the Tiran Kingdom, especially the Tiran Knights. These knights have received various trainings since they were very young, using potions and spells to ensure that they can continue to break through their limits, so their physical fitness Both are tough.

  In addition, they know all kinds of combat skills, and they also have extremely high military literacy and obedience. With a little training, let them learn to use the weapons and equipment of Winter City, and they will immediately become another powerful army.

  Although the other troops are not as good as the two major knight orders, they are also stronger than ordinary civilians.

  Gareth didn't want to watch such a large group of high-quality soldiers being wasted, but it might be difficult to obtain permission for the reorganization of the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards.

"I'll have dinner with His Majesty later, and I'll bring it up to him then." David thought for a while. The situation of the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards is quite special, but the guards of the nobles and the king's guard Troops, ordinary light and heavy infantry soldiers can all be reorganized directly: "Leave the Knights of Tiran and the Knights of the Guards alone, and the other troops will be pulled to the barracks for reorganization."

   "What if there are those who are unwilling to accept the reorganization?"

"They are soldiers and must obey orders." David will not be used to these guys, especially now that they have come to Winter City collectively: "Those who do not meet the requirements but have good character and integrity will be sent to Elizabeth Swan The Sheriff's there."

   As for the inability to meet the needs, personality and professionalism, what about the bad ones? David will still give these people opportunities: they can choose new careers by themselves, and the government will give them some help. As long as they work hard, they can still live well in Winter City.

  If you have to come out all the time...David will build an industrial zone next, even if there are diggers, he won't mind more coolies on the construction site.

   "I see what to do."

   Gareth left with the order. He and Floyd will be responsible for the reorganization work. As for the number of the reorganized army, if there is no accident, it will be directly named the Winter Army.

   This should be the legion with the largest number of people in Winter City, and if it goes well, it will also become the army that undertakes most military tasks.

   After all, whether it is the Winter Knights or the Spartan Heavy Infantry, they are the ace troops of Winter City, and they will only appear on important battlefields in the future.

  Gareth was full of expectations for the future. After leaving Fort Glamorgan, he found Freud to discuss the reorganization plan.

However, as soon as he and Floyd started discussing, he was summoned by the lord again, and he also received a task: to lead a team of winter knights to the south to determine the Marquise Lana Tillan and the Earl of Sutton Stewart Case.
