Lord of Rot

"New residential area?"

Grant was not surprised by the lord's new order. The two hundred residents of the Porcupine Territory, plus the one hundred slaves, all gathered together in a mess would indeed cause trouble. More importantly, he knew that the lord was still letting everyone know. If Joe buys slaves, the house will not be enough to live in at any time, and the population of the Porcupine Territory will become more and more, more and more!

Li Qi nodded, the craftsmen were already in place, and building a new house would naturally be put on the agenda.

When it comes to the types of houses in Lulea continent, they are mainly divided into three types. The first type is the castle of the nobles. It uses stone as the material and glutinous rice paste as the adhesive. The advantage is that it is strong and strong, but the disadvantages are also obvious. Except for the nobles, Sir, the common people in the Porcupine Territory cannot afford it at all. They would rather eat it themselves first if they have this food.

The second type, the mud house, has the advantage of being low-priced, able to block the wind, and can be built by one person. However, the mud house is not suitable for the porcupine collar. The weather in the porcupine collar is not good. When the rainy season comes, heavy rains can turn the mud into mud. The house collapsed.

The porcupine collar house is the third type. It uses wood as the support and foundation, and then uses mud mixed with plant fiber to seal the seams. It is more beautiful than the second type of house, but the cost is slightly higher. One person does not cut down the wood and build the house. It can be done.

"I'm going to re-plan the Porcupine Territory." Li Qi took the bird's-eye view map, detailing every street, every stream, and even every pit.

He pointed to it and said: "In my plan, this will be a residential area. Of course, they will not be divided together. With the current financial resources of the Porcupine Territory, it is too early. I am just disclosing it to you first. Give me my thoughts."

Li Qi's idea is not only for residential areas, but also for commercial areas, agricultural areas, leisure and entertainment venues, etc. If he can recruit a scholar in the future, he must build a scholar tower.

He does not have obsessive-compulsive disorder, but unified planning makes it easier for him to monitor the entire porcupine collar with his eagle eye.

Grant watched the lord keep pointing and telling his rough plan, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up. This was a huge project for the Porcupine Territory. Fortunately, it didn't require much effort at the beginning. He just built a few more houses and left them empty. Wait for the new slaves to arrive.

"Yes" Grant didn't think there was anything wrong with the Lord's order.

What's more, Porcupine Ling is currently making a lot of money selling small pills.

"Don't take away all the slaves," Li Qi said, "I have other jobs for them to help with."

The celebrations are over, and now it’s time for official infrastructure development.

……

"Ha~"

Little Thumb opened his mouth, breathed out, and white air spurted out of his mouth.

"It's really cold." His little fingers were hidden in his sleeves, and his nose was red from the cold.

But looking at the clothes on his body, he couldn't help but grin.

"Praise be to the merciful lord" his smile grew brighter.

Anyone who works in winter can get a set of warm cotton clothes. As a supervisor, he naturally got one. Wearing this suit of clothes in winter will make your whole body warm.

In addition to cotton-padded clothes, a daily salary of two bronze stars, and a lunch of hot soup with oily flowers, during this time as a supervisor, he actually gained a lot of weight and could hardly put on his trousers.

But the recent orders from the lord were somewhat confusing to him. Some of the people were transferred away by Lord Grant to build houses with the new craftsmen.

Why build a house? The houses in the territory are enough to live in. The former lord of the Porcupine Territory will not be like this. It should be said that Lord Leard does not care about the life and death of the people in the territory. The same is true for other noble Lords, but Lord Li Qi is different. , he made people keep building and building, so that many people had food to eat.

Speaking of which, the sand road that Mr. Li Qi arranged to build some time ago has become Little Thumb's favorite path, even if he has to take a few small detours for it.

On rainy days, rainwater will seep into the sand. When walking on it, you don’t have to worry about stepping into puddles, or stepping on mud, and you don’t have to worry about accidentally stepping on feces. The lord said that if anyone is caught on the road, just do it. If you defecate or defecate, you will receive a bonus of 5 bronze stars once the report is verified.

Of course, if it is an unfounded accusation of slander, the fine will be 50 bronze stars and 3 whips.

Last time, a guy from the security team touched the widow's buttocks. After the lord found out about this, the captain of the security team was whipped three times and his skin was torn to pieces! I stayed at home for several days.

Later, the captain gave the bastard who had cheated him five lashes, and it was said that he still had half his life left.

No one dares to challenge the authority of the lord.

The little finger is lucky and did not work on the house building. It is said that the craftsmen have a bad temper. They often ask the supervisors to work together. If they don't obey, they will report it to Lord Grant. Everyone is keeping an eye on the supervisor's fat job. Well, lest I be replaced.

He was responsible for leading the slaves to repair the river. This was a small river far away from the Porcupine Territory. It flowed from somewhere in the dense forest and finally merged into Pig Tail Bay. On weekdays, peasant women would wash clothes here, and some would also do business here. The water is used for cooking. In the summer when it is not cold, a group of men will strip naked and jump in to take a bath, and then touch some fish to add to their meal.

"My lord must be trying to do something," he thought to himself, because in recent days he would often see the lord and the dwarf carpenter going to the river to figure things out together, and the two of them chatting about something.

Maybe it was the sand road that facilitated the construction of the entire Porcupine Territory, or it was more likely to be something else. He didn't have the guts to go over and listen, he was just curious and gossiping in his heart.

Occasionally Black Ear would come. Although he could only make farm tools, his business was very good. The lord ordered him to make more axes, hoes, saws and other farm tools. He kept banging iron every day, and he would definitely Earning a lot of money, because the lord never defaults on his debt, Little Thumb is thinking of giving something as a gift, giving his son to Black Ear as an apprentice.

Just as he was thinking wildly, the lord came again, and he hurriedly started walking to prevent the lord from seeing that he was too idle and taking away the supervisor's work from him.

Li Qi and Fula, the carpenter dwarf, stood by the river: "How is it?"

"I have initially built the waterwheel you want, but there are still some small problems that need to be solved. It will take a few days, but it will definitely be used." Fula said, "But it is so big, can it really be done?"

"The current in this river is quite fast." Li Qi looked at the small river in front of him and said, "It will definitely be no problem to drive the water wheel."

If the Lord's idea is really feasible...is this the wisdom of the nobles? Fura has also met nobles. The heir of the Bill family who was trapped on the pirate ship was a noble. The other party was so stupid that when the pirates were being hunted, he even took the initiative to say that the baron named Pigtail Bay had no soldiers and let the pirates They went to the island to plunder and rest.

Damn it, he told Lord Li Qi about this, but the Lord's expression was calm and he didn't seem to care at all.

He couldn't help with the nobles' affairs, he was a dwarf, and working for the adults was his way of repaying the favor.

Using the power of water flow to drive the waterwheel, the waterwheel can be transformed into "force" for endless work.

According to the lord's vision, if the waterwheel is successfully built, the water mill can be built accordingly, and there will be no need for people to slowly grind wheat flour with a mill, which can save a lot of manpower.

The lord even said that the blacksmith shop could be built next to the waterwheel, and the waterwheel could drive the bellows. Forgive the dwarf, he didn't know what a bellows was, but he just felt that it must be a magical thing full of wisdom.

And the lord said that the waterwheel can also be used to irrigate farmland.

In the past, some people said that the Lord was favored by the gods, but he still didn't believe it. Now he completely believes it. This is the wisdom bestowed by the gods!

The dwarf craftsman thought to himself: "It must be God's arrangement that I was rescued by the Lord and work in the Porcupine Territory!"
