Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning

Swamp Town, which was once the territory of Baron Lessen Thane, has begun to transform since it came into Ronin's hands.

With a dense population, newly built long streets, and lively markets, after the development of Swamp Town in the past few years, it no longer looks like the small town that originally relied only on black buffalo to survive.

The development of swamps, new water conservancy projects, coal mining, and the railway construction project that started at the beginning of the year have not only brought a huge population to the people of Wubei Territory, but also attracted people from surrounding cities such as Muma City and Green Territory. People come to work.

The gathering of people has led to the development of business, and even the catering industry has taken a good shape.

During this period, the residents of Marsh Town benefited a lot. They made money that they had never dared to imagine before. Most people no longer had to worry about food and clothing, and they dared to buy some private property such as hoes, pigs and sheep.

In fact, not only Marsh Town, but also Shanlin Town, Sanfang Town, and Black Tu Town have their own industries, which have also brought good employment and wealth to the local residents.

It is precisely because of this that Luo Ning, who has not appeared in public in front of the people for a long time, has gained such a high reputation.

After all, the people of the lord can live the life they live today, all thanks to the blessing of the lord.

At this time, in the forest thirty miles away from the coal base, a newly laid track went straight through the forest and led into the distance. It was equipped with rails, sleepers, gravel roadbed, etc.

Farther away, Carlos' huge figure overwhelmed a large forest. It was controlling ultra-high temperature flames and welding the rails.

With its current mental strength and magic power, it can operate many rails and weld them at the same time, and the efficiency is pretty good.

In fact, when steam trains first appeared, there was no welding technology. The rails at that time used riveting technology, which was a little worse than Carlos welding.

"Duke, we started laying it officially in April. Now in the past four months, the total length of the railway is about thirty miles."

Simon, the chief mechanical engineer, was introducing the situation to Luo Ning with the drawings, "Our current location is probably here, about a few miles away from Black Earth Town."

Luo Ning took over the route map. This was a route that Simon and the assistants he recruited spent two months surveying, from the coal base in Marsh Town to near Wubei Port, passing through Black Earth Town along the way.

At Luo Ning's suggestion, the route was slightly deviated to the west and curved.

This was done so that a station close to Heitu Town and Sanfang Town could be built later to facilitate the transportation of food, ceramics and fabrics from these two places.

"The speed is a bit slow!" Luo Ning said.

Simon felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, "Duke, our speed is not slow! After all, we are starting from scratch and there is no one to draw reference from. It is already very good to be able to pave these thirty miles in more than four months!"

Luo Ning pretended not to hear what he heard, "The entire route is more than a hundred miles long. Can the speed of the subsequent paving be increased?"

He put down the drawings and looked at Simon: "Blanqi will give birth soon, and many nobles will come to me to congratulate me. I will also take this opportunity to show them your results. I believe there will be people who care about it later. If this big guy is interested, the railway will also go out of Wubei Territory.”

Luo Ning couldn't guarantee whether other nobles would build a railway, but at least there would be a railway leading to the large iron mine in Wushan City.

It will take a year to lay the more than 100 miles of railway in Wubei Territory. How long will it take to build the hundreds of miles from Wubei Territory to Wushan City?

That's why Luo Ning said the speed was a bit slow.

"In the past four months, the workers have gradually become familiar with the operation process, and many details have been mastered through my hammering. I have also brought out several foremen, and the laying speed should be improved in the future."

Simon obviously had no dealings with his boss and spoke very honestly.

"Okay, then let's speed up and try to complete the rest of the road before spring plowing next year!" Luo Ning said.

Simon felt the pressure, "It's snowy in winter and it's difficult to operate. I don't care, but these workers..."

"Then increase investment in wages and provide them with working conditions."

Luo Ning said: "Snow accumulation is not a problem. Just let Carlos melt it away. The speed of infrastructure construction must be increased."

"But Duke, there is one thing that I have to say in advance. We only have one Carlos. It can help weld the railway in Wubei Territory, but it will not be able to handle the hundreds of miles of railway lines behind it. "

This sentence made Luo Ning frown.

After pondering for a long time, he said: "We have also designed a riveting method. Let's use this method later. In addition, the speed of the steam train should be slowed down a little, and the weight should be controlled to reduce the vibration and impact caused by the train's movement."

"I went back to Bellola and Sophia to see if they could design a portable magic welding gun suitable for ordinary people."

One bite cannot make a big fat man, and without welding skills, the connection of the rails is indeed a problem.

Although Luo Ning knew that thermite reaction could create ultra-high temperatures for welding purposes, he did not yet have the ability to make aluminum powder.

As for gas welding, electric welding, etc., the same reason applies.

Therefore, he could only turn his thoughts to magic energy.

Until a solution is found, the only way to get by is by riveting.

While the two were talking, the ground was shaking, and a clanging sound penetrated the forest from a distance.

Luo Ning couldn't help but look over and saw a steam locomotive pulling two carriages and the locomotive at the rear approaching slowly.

Dudu~

The sound of the whistle made Luoning feel as if he had returned to the earth. This scene gave him a huge impact and gave him a sense of accomplishment.

laugh!

Steam was ejecting, and the speed of the train was slowly decreasing. It happened to stop not far from Luoning and Simon. A young man jumped down from the top. He rubbed his hands and looked excited.

He's clearly proud and excited to be driving this big guy.

This young man's name was Sidon. He was smart, smart, and learned new knowledge very quickly. He was selected by Simon.

Sidon, who was born as a free citizen, came from Wushan City and wanted to make some achievements here. Now he has made a very good start.

Trains are something that even nobility has never touched, and he actually became the driver. I am afraid that many people will be envious and jealous when they find out.

Because of this, Seton cherishes his current job very much and wipes the wheels of his car several times himself after get off work.

"Your Excellency, Chief Engineer Simon!"

Sidon trotted over, bowed first, and then reported: "This is my third trial run, and I didn't encounter any problems from the coal base to here!"

"Well done Sidon!"

While praising, Simon said to Luo Ning: "We will increase the load and the number of carriages and run a few more trips in the future. We can definitely guarantee that there won't be any problems!"

Luo Ning laughed, "Thank you for your hard work!"

He wanted to show the "heavy weapons" of the Wubei Territory to the nobles from all over the world, so he naturally wanted to ensure that everything was perfect.

If the car overturns or something goes wrong on the spot, it will be a bit of a loss of face.

Time passed quickly, and it was September 20th in a blink of an eye. Blanche had already started giving birth, a few days later than the due date.

Because of this, many nobles or retainers have arrived in Swamp Town, waiting for the birth of new lives. (End of chapter)
