Chapter 381 Outlying Island Road Construction
On February 14th of the third year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao took Franklin Jin and Wang Mao, the village chief of Kongdao Yicun, in a valley in the northeast of Kongdao to demonstrate how to pave artificial soil with crushed stones and then plant grass back.
He also set the location of Miao Village at the northeast corner of the empty island, drew the location of the water storage pits for taking stones, and the excavation depth of each pit, and then handed over the architectural planning drawings of the early construction of Miao Village to Franklin King, That night, Qu Mao spent a night in a five-story building in Yicun, Kongdao.
In the early morning of February 15th in the third year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao left Sky Island by sea boat, and did not return directly to Yi Island. The stone road on the crest of the embankment of the river went north to the small village.
When Qu Mao arrived, the northbound village was crowded with people, including army soldiers and members of the road construction team.
After taking a few mouthfuls of breakfast, Qu Mao sent someone to find Li Xiang.
Qu Mao asked: "Li Xiang, you are so anxious to contact me and ask me to rush to Beixiang Xiaocun as soon as possible, I have already come.
I have only had time to have a bite of food since I woke up in the different village of Sky Island. "
Li Xiang said: "My lord, my subordinates said that the roads to outlying islands are about to start full-scale construction. It would be best if you can catch up. It doesn't matter if you can't."
Qu Mao waved his hand and said, "The construction of the outlying island roads will start soon. Have all the roads been planned?"
Li Xiang smiled and said: "My lord, Master Kong Ming supported 20 graduates of the first batch of Yizhi School under his command, and hired 40% of the first batch of Yizhi School graduates at once. The planning is still a small matter. , I am a little sorry for the trust of adults and the support of adults Kong Ming.
The first batch of graduates from Yizhi School assisted their subordinates to conduct a comprehensive survey of the outlying islands, although they did not plan all the outlying island roads.
However, the main road from North Xiaocun to Yicun, the main road from Nanli Village to Yicun, the main road from Fulou Village to Yicun, and the main road from Digang to Yicun will be built in the early stage.
The villages that will be encountered on the way will be connected, so the subordinates have planned 22 construction teams, and each village will have two construction teams to build roads to outlying islands in two different directions.
If a construction team can build a road of one kilometer a day, as long as the materials are available, the construction team under it can build a road of 22 kilometers a day.
And now there are as many as 18,000 army and navy soldiers hunting on the outlying islands. The Lord needs these troops to send the subordinate construction teams to the corresponding villages, and Master Kong Ming organized the heroes to transport the stones in place, and the subordinate construction teams smoothly With the vacant land burned by the senior fighter team led by Lord Jenny Water, the planned road construction work on the outlying island will soon be completed.
The subordinates evaluated the workload and estimated that all these roads could be built in a week at the earliest. Of course, the road from Xiaocun to Yicun in the north may take a little longer, because there is no small village that has been built in the middle. "
Qu Mao took a breath and asked, "Damn it! Li Xiang, are you crazy? Have you forgotten the construction period of the Yidao road and the construction period of the Lihe dam crest road?
How could you have built all these roads on the outlying island within a week? The four roads add up to almost 100 kilometers, right?
How many people are recruited in your road construction team now? "
Li Xiang chuckled a few times and said, "My lord, according to your suggestion, the preparation and planning for the road construction team under my subordinates is a total of 3,000 people, and now there are 2,872 people. There will be more than a hundred people.
With the addition of a team of senior fighters to help the subordinates clear the vegetation along the road, one week is not an exaggeration at all.
Even if there may be a state of shutdown and waiting for materials, it should not be a big problem to repair them all within two weeks, but the stone transportation will not be able to keep up for a long time. "
Qu Mao said: "Jenny Walter has been sent out by me to hunt, and the hunting time is not short. If the vegetation on your side is not cleared in time, won't it affect your construction period?"
Li Xiang said: "My lord, you are too worried. The current senior fighter team is no longer the senior fighter team in your impression. Does hunting still need a magician?
When Master Jenny Water received your order to **** the four new masters to Digang, she had already contacted her subordinates and arranged for a team of magicians to help her subordinates clean up the vegetation on the planned road surface.
At present, each construction team is going to the corresponding small village, and it is also escorted by soldiers personally arranged by Mr. Zhao Pan and Mr. Chafidel.
The subordinates feel that there are so many army and navy hunters in our territory of Yi Village on the outlying islands. In fact, Master Zhao Pan and Lord Chafidel do not arrange soldiers to **** them. As long as our road construction team is careful and with the help of hunting soldiers, we can Can arrive safely. "
Qu Mao said: "Don't save on this, members of the road construction team should put safety first."
Li Xiang said: "My lord, the magicians in the senior warrior team have already gone to other small villages first, and will follow the signs made by their subordinates to clear the vegetation on the ground until they reach Yi Village.
In addition, Master Zhao Pan and Master Chafidel each sent 300 soldiers above the third rank to **** their construction team members.
The currently planned four roads leading to Yi Village, although they are not completely built according to what you said, but almost all other major villages except the military port can be involved. "
Qu Mao nodded, spread out the map of outlying islands, looked at Li Xiang's plan, and said, "Okay, you can build these four roads according to your own surveying and planning.
I see that you have divided up 22 construction teams. Basically, every midway village will be constructed at both ends, and the overall project will be divided into small projects to improve the overall efficiency. "
Li Xiang pointed to the map and said, "Yes, my lord, this way the progress of the project will be increased quickly.
Master Sunan had already adopted this method when he was building stone roads in Yidao, but at that time our road construction team had a small number of personnel, so this method of outflanking at both ends was not particularly widely used.
The two-kilometer road can be completed in one or two days. Even if the preliminary work such as clearing vegetation is counted, the entire construction process will not exceed 5 days.
Unfortunately, the road from Xiaocun to Yicun in the north is currently not separated by ready-made villages. This section of the road is the longest, and it is also the most difficult for us to construct. "
Qu Mao thought for a while, and said: "Li Xiang, don't worry, as long as you still have people who can continue to divide the construction team, there should be other changes.
Lord Su Yan will soon recruit 6,000 excellent-level qualified citizens. The resettlement of these leaders will definitely require new villages. When we plan the location of the new village, we will fully combine the roads you are building now. When the new village opens Construction, you can form a new construction team over there, and we can work together at that time.
Maybe some new villages will be built between North Village and Yi Village. "
Li Xiang said with a smile: "My lord, this is a good thing.
There are 128 people under his command who are supporting Master Kong Ming to build the water blocking dam of the Lihe Reservoir. After the water blocking dam is completed, they will also support Master Kong Ming to build the last part of the road from the north and south from the village to the north to the small village.
Once the project over there is completed, based on these 128 old workers, the subordinates can form at least 6 more small construction teams. It is no problem for you to build more villages, and the subordinates can continue to work from the old workers. Send out more construction teams. "
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "It's good that you have this backup, but don't worry for now, the current construction plan of the new village is only in the thinking stage, and no specific plan has been formed.
At that time, it is not certain where the new village will be built.
You first repair according to the current plan and try to speed up the progress of road construction, but the quality of the road must be guaranteed.
I don’t want the roads on outlying islands to be repaired just after all the money has been spent, only to have to go back and rework and strengthen the roads.
Li Xiang, do you understand what I mean? "
Li Xiang said: "Yes, my lord!
Please rest assured, the subordinates will guarantee the quality of the road construction project, and speeding up the progress of the project must be under the premise of ensuring the quality.
However, my lord, the stone materials used by the road construction team to build roads, the subordinates are worried that if the supply is insufficient, it will inevitably affect our road construction progress.
At present, the size of a stone transformed by a hero is 1 meter long, 0.6 meter wide, and 0.2 meter thick. The road needs to be paved with a width of 2 meters, which means that we need to spend at least 3,300 units of stone materials for every kilometer of road construction. .
We can build 22 kilometers a day, which means that we will consume 72,000 units of stones. A hero with a full backpack can transport less than 48,000 units of stones.
Moreover, how can we produce stone so fast? The subordinate originally applied for Master Kong Ming to extract stone resources from the warehouse in the territory, but Master Kong Ming said that the price was relatively high. "
Qu Mao frowned and said, "Wait for me a moment, I will contact Master Su Yan."
Qu Mao really doesn’t know how to take out stone resources from the territorial warehouse, but every time the blank rune stone is brought out by Su Yan from the territorial warehouse, Qu Mao believes that the stone resources can still be directly obtained from the territorial warehouse It is proposed that the number of stone resources in the warehouse of Yi Village Territory has reached 500,000, and 72,000 units is not a trivial matter.
Su Yan clearly told Qu Mao that it can be taken out, but it may lose about 10%, and Qu Mao thinks the 10% loss is still acceptable.
So Qu Mao said directly to Li Xiang: "Li Xiang, don't worry, I will let Mr. Meng De take charge of this matter, Sky Island is already mining a lot of stone.
The three adults, Meng De, Zhen Fu, and Su Li, don't have to do anything, and are responsible for transporting stone materials to your various construction teams every day. "
Li Xiang said with a smile: "Sir, with your guarantee, the subordinates can safely and boldly speed up the construction progress."
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "I have given you all the support I can give you, and you should speed up the progress and strive to complete the project as soon as possible."
The sound of firecrackers bid farewell to the old year. On the first day of the first lunar month, book lovers remember to climb high and look far.
