Become the city lord from today
Chapter 823
In the early morning, a 50-meter boat sailed on the Youshui River.
Niu Ben stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the river in front of him, he had been setting out from Xiyang City for many days, this time to Mar City, in order to implement the military port plan.
It was long overdue, but the most important thing was missing, that is, cement, and I waited for a long time to wait for the fired cement.
The construction of the military port, as well as the port garrison, are all preparations for the future unification of the western land, when the time comes, the military port will be used as the fulcrum, radiating out, and the surrounding area will be the real control area.
Another point is that maintaining the safety of the Youshui River can deter those water thieves in the past, after all, the value that the Youshui River can create in the future is immeasurable.
The importance of the military port plan is indescribable, but it is because of this that Liu Feng had to be cautious, worried that there was no suitable person to lead the team, and finally decided to let Niu Ben lead the team to supervise.
Niu Benyuan was in charge of internal affairs and would be relatively idle, but he was an idle person, so when Liu Feng found him to explain the situation, he agreed without saying a word.
"It should be almost to Martown." Niu Ben whispered to himself.
Sure enough, as the ship continued to move forward, a ruined port appeared in Niu Ben's eyes.
This port is all made of wood, and some places have begun to decay, especially the parts soaked in water, which is also good in the western land, but it is a little dilapidated compared to Xiyang City.
"Just look at this port and see how dilapidated this city is." Niu Ben said speechlessly.
The port has already become like this, and Viscount Nagini has not even spent money to rebuild it, no wonder the city of Marl cannot develop, there is also a reason.
At this time, on the edge of the port, Viscount Genie had already led people to greet the ox run, and after waiting for so long, he finally waited for someone from Xiyang City.
"Wow, what a big ship, it's the first time I've seen it."
"This ship is from Xiyang City, I have been to Xiyang City, it is much more prosperous than our Mar City, if not for my father does not want to leave, I want to move to Xiyang City."
"The city lord of Xiyang City is really a good person, it's because of him that we have a job..."
"It's still good in Xiyang City, I heard that the salaries over there are very high..."
“........."
There were several hundred people in the port, all of whom were civilians in the city of Mal, all talking about the appearance of Niu Ben and others at this time.
They were all hired by Viscount Geni to help build the port, and their daily salary was almost two copper coins, in order to build the port quickly, of course, for which he gritted his teeth and called so many people over.
"Dock!"
"Drop anchor, drop anchor!!"
"Drop the sails, drop the sails!!"
The shipwrights shouted loudly, the anchor disembarked, sank into the river, and the big ship stopped safely on the edge of the port.
"Squeak..."
Niu Ben disembarked with the soldiers, and when he stepped on the plank of the harbor for the first time, he suddenly made a 'squeaking' sound, which made him deeply doubt whether the port under his feet would collapse at any time.
As more and more people came down, the whole port was a little shaky, and the bull could only speed up and step on the ground.
Behind him, workers disembarked from the ship and stacked bags of sackcloth on the shore, guarded by soldiers and not allowed anyone to approach.
"Finally waited for someone from Xiyang City to come." Viscount Genie saw the cow rushing towards him and hurriedly greeted him.
"It's wasted a little time preparing materials, can we start now?" Niu Ben said lightly.
He didn't like this kind of nobles who exploited commoners, and if it weren't for the important role of Mar City in unifying the western lands in the future, he wouldn't have set foot here.
"Yes, you can start, they all listen to your command." The bald Viscount Genie was stunned, but he didn't expect the ox to run so directly.
"Let's start moving, first tear down all the old ports for me, and tear them all down." Niu Ben said in a deep voice, directing the civilians to start moving.
"Chief Niu, is this port all going to be demolished?" Viscount Genie said in amazement, not expecting to tear down the entire port.
"Yes, a brand new port will be built here, and merchant ships going to Xiyang City can dock here." Niu Ben responded lightly.
"No, if this port is completely dismantled, where will our ship dock?" Viscount Genie froze and asked in confusion.
"It may take us a while, isn't there still open space over there, you can build a port over there temporarily." Niu Ben pointed to the pile of rocks in front of him and said coldly.
"This..." Viscount Geni was dumbfounded, and was just about to say something, but was interrupted.
"Your port is too small, in the future we have more merchant ships, there is simply not enough parking, so it must all be rebuilt, the place here is originally small, so it can only be used all." Niu Ben said with a serious face.
"I..." Viscount Geni was bitter and unable to speak, and in the end he had to build a new port.
Niu Ben glanced coldly at Viscount Geni, and continued, "Let's start, the time is a little tight, and finish it before winter." "
"..."Viscount Genie really has no way to do it now, what can he do if he doesn't build it, he doesn't have the power to resist at all, and now he has to build it if he doesn't build it."
He turned his head and gave a few orders to his subordinates, got directly into the carriage, and returned to the castle, which can be regarded as out of sight, out of mind.
He is still very distressed, it will cost a lot of gold to build the most humble port, and some of the money earned during this period because of the textile technology, now it seems that most of it will be invested in the new port.
Otherwise, there is no port for this time, when other merchants come to Mar City to do business, if there is no port for them to call, I am afraid that they will directly lose to other cities, you must know that more than one family has sackcloth.
Niu Ben didn't care about Viscount Geni, he still had to be strong outside, so as not to let some people play tricks.
"Remove all this wood and fill it all with stones..."
Niu Ben commanded the workers, and the project proceeded in an orderly manner.
