"My lord, the villain's body is still strong, thank you for your concern."

"Do you still have the bike?"

"Not many have been built yet, and there are only more than [-] vehicles in the whole city." An Zhongzhi came casually.

"Only more than five hundred vehicles? How about this? Make some more bicycles and distribute them to you and some people in charge for transportation."

An Zhongzhi is really hardworking. Wanghai City is getting bigger and bigger now. He runs around every day. If he doesn’t have a means of transportation, it will waste time and be tiring. Having a bicycle can be regarded as a privilege, although this privilege seems a bit frustrating. .

"Thank you for your compassion." An Zhongzhi said happily.

Without Lin Bei's order, An Zhongzhi really didn't dare to do this, and he didn't dare to find someone to carry him in a sedan chair, because even Lin Bei didn't enjoy this kind of treatment, how could An Zhongzhi have the courage?Originally, An Zhongzhi could ride a horse, but unfortunately he is not good at riding, so a bicycle is a good choice, and it can also be used as exercise.

Lin Bei nodded and asked again, "Where is Master?"

"Yesterday, the master went to the city to inspect the reading situation of the people. He was a little tired, so he didn't go out today."

"Then let's go directly to Master's house."

While walking, An Zhongzhi reported to Lin Bei the progress of Wanghai City in the past [-] days. Everything was good, but An Zhongzhi talked about one thing, that is, seabirds.

It turns out that during this period of time, as the maturity of the rice is approaching, there are more and more seabirds near Wanghai City. The watchtower personnel on several islands also reported this situation. They saw many groups of seabirds heading towards Wanghai City. fly.

Didn't Lin Bei see many scarecrows in the rice fields on the way back?It was made during this period, but because there are too many seabirds, even if there is a scarecrow, An Zhongzhi feels that it is not safe. In addition, there are many seabirds pecking on the banana tree, which annoys An Zhongzhi very much.

This matter is quite troublesome, even if someone is assigned to guard it, the scope of Wanghai City is neither big nor small, and seabirds are flying everywhere, but people must not be able to run away from birds.

"About how many seabirds are there?"

"There are a lot of them. A few days ago, several large flocks flew here, covering the sky and covering the sky. There are so many seabirds that they are not afraid of people. The bananas are probably lost." An Zhongzhi said with a sad face.

ps: ps: I have caught a cold again, this chapter has been coded for almost five hours, and I feel very tired..

Chapter 245 The population is too small

Bird disaster?When Lin Bei thought about this word, he really found it novel. Wanghai City is probably the only case of seabirds becoming a disaster in this era.

The forest coverage rate in this era is too high. Regardless of whether it is a good year or a bad year outside, the birds can be self-sufficient in the forest, so there will be no bird disasters, and only seaside cities like Wanghai City have this possibility.

Many seabirds are seasonal migratory birds. When it is cold, they will move to warm areas. There is no doubt that the surrounding area of ​​Wanghai City is a warm area. In addition, fruit trees are transplanted during this period, forming a huge fruit forest. Today The rice is ripe again, so it is not surprising that seabirds will come, for them, this is food.

In other words, if the surrounding environment of Wanghai City is not so good, seabirds will not pay attention to Wanghai City. This can be regarded as a typical blessing and misfortune, so this bird disaster can be said to be a relatively high-level disaster. ...

Just as he was thinking about it, the sky suddenly darkened. Lin Bei raised his head, and a large group of seabirds flew over Wanghai City. It is an exaggeration to say that there are hundreds of thousands of seabirds, but there are tens of thousands of seabirds. Lin Bei stood up and stood up. Seeing the flock of birds flying outside the city and then settling down, they are about to make their home in the fruit forest.

"My lord, did you see it? I remember this is the third wave or the fourth wave today." An Zhong said with a wry smile: "When the biggest wave came, it was dark in Wanghai City."

"Thinking about it, I hope that many of the sergeants in Haicheng City are hunters. Anyway, there is no war in the city. Let them go out to shoot seabirds. It is considered hunting. If the harvest is rich, they will not have to worry about food for a few days. This is meat delivered to your door, what are you doing with a frowning face? Give them the fruit trees, as long as you look after the food."

An Zhong thought for a while, there is no way out, because there are not many bananas on the banana tree this year.Even if the seabirds eat them all, it's nothing.

Someone had already notified Bian Ji, so before Lin Bei and An Zhongzhi came to the door, Bian Ji got the news and came out to meet Lin Bei.

"Master, honestly, you were tired yesterday? Are you better now?" Lin Bei asked with concern.

"Thank you for your concern. The students are much better." Bian Ji smiled.

Lin Bei took a closer look at Bian Ji's expression. It was not much different from usual. He relaxed slightly, but he still told him: "Master, you and Zhong Zhi are my right-hand men. Remember to pay attention to your body and don't be too tired. There are some things Let the people below do it and let it go, the body is the most important thing.”

"The students know." Bian Jixin said happily.

"Master, can you ride a bicycle? I will ask Zhongzhi to make another batch of bicycles. I will reward them to the people in charge in the city. If the master can also ride a bicycle, then I will ride a bicycle when I go out. Cycling often can exercise my body."

"Students can't, but with the kindness of adults, students will learn by themselves."

After the conversation, Lin Bei brought up the matter of cement again: "Master, during this period of time, I hope that Haicheng is booming. There are more and more steam carriages and ships, and the roads repaired are not enough. There was a flood, and the wooden road was washed away, so I made a new thing called cement. I am going to use this cement to build roads."

Bian Ji nodded: "My lord, I already know about the cement, but it seems that the craftsmen say it is not very good after making it? Can it be used to build roads?"

An Zhong said with a straight smile: "Master, when is the thing made by adults not a god? It's just that we don't know how to use it. It turns out that this cement needs to be added with sand. Without sand, the cement is extremely soft, but once mud is added Sand and cement are as hard as steel, which is really extraordinary." Afterwards, An Zhongzhi told Bian Ji about the cement in detail.

"Oh? There are other things like this? My lord is really a god." Bian Ji was overjoyed.

"This cement is simple and easy to get, but it is extremely practical. It is really good for road construction. I have also told Zhong that the production of cement is the focus of Wanghai City during this time. We must let everyone produce a large amount of cement. , build the road as soon as possible, the road from Linjiang City to the mine is paved with five feet of cement road, so now our roads must also be of this specification."

"Five zhang?" An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji were very surprised. If the road outside Wanghai City is five zhang wide, then it's fine, and the road in the forest is also five zhang wide?Is it too extravagant?

"My lord, if there is a five-zhang road paved in the forest, if there is a flood, can this cement withstand the flood?" Bian Ji asked.

"Don't worry, if it's just a road, the cement road will not be washed away by the flood like a wooden road." Lin Bei said confidently: "It is conservatively estimated that a road can be used for decades when it is built into a cement road."

Cement roads are mainly used to run steam cars. The load of steam cars cannot be compared with modern cars, so the degree of wear on the road surface is not great. For decades, the invasion of rain and time should be considered, otherwise Lin Bei Will say hundreds of years.

"Since your lord is so confident, let's fix it." Bian Ji just raised his concerns. Since he has no worries, Lin Bei's opinion is the biggest.

"Also, pay attention when building roads and make the road surface higher."

Bian Ji nodded: "My lord is very considerate, I'll find out later."

Lin Bei is afraid that in addition to the big flood season, the Mekong River will also have a small flood season, so the road surface will be raised higher, and the road will still be usable during the small flood season.

An Zhong asked directly: "My lord, the Haka tribe should not have been defeated, right?"

"Well, I just sent soldiers to Linjiang City and encountered floods, so I didn't attack the Haka tribe. Now, because of the road, I'm afraid it will take some time."

"After the road is repaired, it will be the autumn harvest. I'm afraid we won't be able to send troops at that time." An Zhongzhi worried.

"No, troops must be dispatched after the road is built. I want to take down all the indigenous tribes around the Mekong River before May next year." Lin Bei said firmly.

"My lord? Why is this?" Bian Ji and An Zhong were shocked, "Is it too hasty?"

Lin Bei explained: "I plan to build several important towns between the Mekong River, control the river course of the Mekong River, and form a commercial road dominated by the Mekong River, radiating to the surrounding area, and the Mekong River is turbulent. If you want to build important towns, you must Building a dam in the river to stop the water, if the natives make trouble, the dam thing is pure fantasy, so it is best to capture all the native tribes before the next year's flood season, and allow time to build the dam."

Seeing the shocked faces of An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji, Lin Bei took some time for them to digest the information, and then said slowly: "I know there must be some haste, but there are not many warriors in the indigenous tribes who are good at fighting. I'll wait until the road is repaired, this time should be enough."

An Zhong straightened his fingers: "My lord, let me do the math for my lord. It will take half a month to build the road, right? That's early September. In addition to the Haka tribe, there are nine other tribes and countless small ones. If the indigenous tribe conquers a large tribe in one month, it will take nine months, and it will not be captured until June next year, and there must be no other accidents during the period."

"It only takes a few days to fight a tribe, and more than half of a month is spent building roads, isn't it okay?"

"My lord, the longer the road, the longer the supplies will be. I don't know how far the Mekong River is. This subordinate is really worried."

Lin Bei looked at Bian Ji: "Master, what do you think?"

Bian Ji smiled wryly and said, "My lord, my subordinates also think it's inappropriate. Apart from the reasons Zhongzhi said, have you ever thought about how to deal with the natives after they conquered the native tribes?"

"Of course he was brought back as a slave." Lin Bei said as a matter of course.

"Now I have only [-] people in Wanghai City, and now there are more than [-] slaves. If all the natives are captured, there will be more natives than I. There may be civil strife at that time. Do you think so?" ?”
