God don't even try to stop me from doing infrastructure!

On this day, the harbor is never dark, lights are lit everywhere, and soldiers returning from a long voyage are scattered among the crowd, bringing stories and legends to the past.

In a tavern, a navy soldier is bragging about their thrilling battles and adventures.From the son of God breaking into the pirate island alone, to defeating the pirates at sea.

The soldiers did not know that the pirates were pretended by the Portman Navy, nor did they know that the provocative pirates were actually their collaborators.But it's also exciting enough.

It is not an easy task to almost kill a group of big pirates at sea.

The soldiers narrated their experiences brilliantly, like a legendary adventure novel, and everyone listened with gusto.

In addition, other soldiers added details, such as how their god son debated with the evil red valley messenger at the enthronement banquet of the northern king, and how to perform a miracle to save the poor foreign maid from the mouth of a hungry beast.

There are simply too many elements and themes that can be extracted along the way.

Everyone heard that His Royal Highness Shenzi used wine to resolve his crisis and left the pirate island with the fleet intact. They all felt the courage and wisdom of Shenzi.

When they talked about the evil and stupidity of the Red Valley envoys and how they persecuted the Son of God, they cursed anxiously.

Speaking of the maid who was pushed off the stands and was almost eaten by wolves, people were full of sympathy for the weak and anger for the brutal.

Finally, when it came to the encounter with pirates at sea, when the fleet won a complete victory, everyone cheered for the bravery and fearlessness of the Taixi Navy and Taixi God Son.

"Drink, you don't need to pay for how much you drink today." The owner of the tavern said generously.

The soldiers were encouraged to speak more freely.The perspective of each soldier is different, and the content they tell seems to be fragmented, and the fragments are pieced together to form a complete adventure story.

Residents of the port and merchants from foreign countries were attracted to come here. They were amazed, crowded in the tavern like sardines, and were unwilling to leave very late.

By the time Yunze woke up, he had already become a legendary figure.

"It's still comfortable to sleep on my own bed, and the quilt is also very soft." He rolled around on the bed twice, just in time when Menis opened the door and came in.

Yunze immediately sat up, put down the quilt, and said solemnly: "Menis, did you rest well yesterday?"

Menis couldn't help laughing: "Cough, um, very good."

Yunze was immediately annoyed and threw the pillow over.

The two quarreled for a while, and Menis got to the point: "Your Highness said yesterday that you can't go back to Curry?"

"Well, I want to build a lighthouse here. If I go back to Curry, it will take half a year to go back and forth, which is a waste of time." Yunze thought about the lighthouse on Coral Island, which is very useful. It can also point out the direction for ships at sea As a watchtower, it is standard equipment in port cities.

"I'm afraid it will take many years to build such a building."

"If all stone materials are used, it may take many years, but with bricks, marble and cement, if there are enough people, half a year is enough." Solid marble is load-bearing, bricks and cement are used to build walls, and a high-lying rock formation is found. Build a 30-meter-high one.

Yun Ze rubbed his chin: "This kind of large-scale construction requires a professional engineer... Can the craftsman who repaired my small theater come to the port? I don't know if Your Majesty has saved some stone and cement these days. If so, you can Bring them together."

The materials that King Taixi saved to build his own tomb were of very good quality. He was used to using these good materials, but he always felt inferior to other materials.

Menis couldn't help mourning for his uncle, because he had indeed saved a little more these days, but he might not be able to keep it.

Several carriages set foot on the road to Curry together with the gifts they brought home. Meinis needed to go back first to report the situation on the road, but Yunze still stayed at the port.

A brilliant construction craftsman who was in charge of the port construction work went with him to find a suitable address for the lighthouse.

"Such a tall building is located by the sea, and it will often face the sea wind in the future. It must be built on a solid rock layer." The architect carefully searched for the best and strongest place.

To build a high-rise building in modern times, it is necessary to lay a foundation and lay reinforced concrete underneath. Now it is even more troublesome to lay a foundation. It is necessary to dig a deep hole in the rock layer, put the whole stone as a column, and pour gravel and Mixture of cement.

They will not continue to build until the load-bearing pillars are stable.

"Many places are still covered with ice, so it is impossible to use an awl to determine whether there is a rock formation underneath, and the selected place needs to be tested again after the ice melts." The architect told Yunze again.

Yunze really doesn't understand architecture. The building materials in this era are different from those in modern times. Even earth cement is much weaker than modern cement.

"You are a professional, and you can listen to this kind of thing. Curry's materials should be delivered at the beginning of spring."

The expression on the architect's face eased a little. Craftsmen like them like customers like Shenzi the most, and they never order experts from outsiders, or issue some impossible tasks.

The repair of the lighthouse will have to wait until spring, but the brick-burning can start now.

"Firing bricks is similar to firing pottery." Yunze, who knows little about firing bricks, said this. He remembers that firing bricks requires cohesive soil, mixed with sand to make regular embryos, and then fired after drying. The process is very similar to firing pottery. .

The workers tried to burn bricks according to Yunze's statement. They experimented with several ratios of soil and sand, dried them together and then entered the kiln for firing.

They selected the stronger ones from the complete bricks and fired them a second time.

They also have to go through the three processes of making mud embryos, drying and firing, and then they decide which kind of bricks to make.The size of the bricks is according to 'the height is twice the width, and the length is twice the height'.

Yunze has nothing else to do, just guard the brick kiln.The side of the kiln for firing bricks is hot, but the soot blowing out easily makes people dusty, so the staff need to wear several layers of gauze masks and thick gloves on their hands.

When winter turns to spring and the permafrost at the port thaws, a batch of finished bricks from the brick kiln has been fired, and the materials in the warehouse have finally arrived.

Not only Menis came, but also Prince Sham.

"Why is Prince Sham here?" Yunze was very surprised, what did his wife and children run out to do when they were hot on the bed?

"This is the port of Prince Sham. He came to participate in the construction of the lighthouse." Menis reminded him, and then he added, "Princess Sharjah is on an expedition. Maybe Sham is bored?"

"Going out? Where are you going?"

"Red Valley."

"Huh?" Yun Ze asked casually, but he didn't expect this answer.

"Isn't the Red Valley the homeland of Princess Sharjah?" Isn't it a bit strange to ask her to beat her natal family?

"Well, it's easier for the Red Valley people to accept this way, and it will be under the name of Princess Sharjah. Maybe it will become the vassal state of some prince or little princess in the future." From the moment the Red Valley envoy offended, Menis expected that there would be such a thing. a war.King Taixi wants to expand his territory, and the domestic development has been good recently, and there are enough supplies, which means he lacks an excuse.

No, this excuse came to my door.

You insulted me Tae-seok, so I hit you, is there a problem?

"Princess Sharjah went to bring a lot of potato seeds, golden wheat seeds and soybean seeds. Although the locust plague has left the land of Red Valley, the people there have not recovered for a while, and high-quality seeds can speed up the process. The civilians come here."

If Taixi can feed them enough, many people would not mind Honggu becoming a vassal of Taixi.

To put it bluntly, sticks in one hand and dates in the other, both hands must be grasped, and both hands must be hard.

Princess Sharjah went to the south, and Prince Sham went to the port to participate in the construction of the lighthouse. Only the little princess became a left-behind child.

Another very poor person is King Taixi, because the little stone and cement he saved were transported here by boat.After reading the benefits of the lighthouse written by Yunze in the letter, King Taixi had to give it away no matter how reluctant he was.

There are actually not many stones to be used this time, and bricks can be used in many places.But the amount of cement was very large, and it really wiped out the king's family.The king is now urging the craftsmen to improve the cement formula every day so that more cement can be produced.

In this way, the king did not forget to give Yunze a piece of mountain land to grow nuts.

All the fruit seedlings brought to the warehouse have been planted. Except for walnuts, pistachios and tung trees, almost all of them have survived.In the future, almonds and cashews will also come, and the forest will be surrounded by nuts.

All the gifts brought were also distributed, and everyone had them.Bell and Abydos have already arrived in Taixi, Bell is still in charge of the theater, and Abydos is in charge of the oil press workshop.

The first batch of technical school graduates graduated this year, and most of them chose to enter Yunze's workshop. They greatly supplemented the lack of personnel under Yunze, and some outstanding old employees could go to other cities to open branch factories.

Yunze's goal is to feed all Taixi people, eat cheap salt, oil, sauce, and vinegar, wear warm cotton clothes, raise livestock at home, and even have enough money to send their children to touch the class ceiling.

Now only Curry people have just lived this kind of life, and the future is still long and difficult.

There are also a large number of craftsmen who came this time. They are all descendants of the craftsmen who participated in the construction of the palace and the temple... The ancestors learned this from generation to generation, and the craftsmanship can be guaranteed.

With the men, materials, and tools available, the work of building the lighthouse began.

They began to choose a suitable address. They had selected seven before, and they found a place among the seven addresses, which was on a huge rock.

This is a very big rock.I don't know if it can be called a rock, half of it is outside, half is embedded in the mountain, and the exposed part is as big as two football fields.

The craftsman said it was volcanic rock, available.

The terrain here is also high, more than ten meters above the sea level, and a lighthouse more than 20 meters high on it is almost enough.

The shape of the lighthouse has been determined. It is a conical shape with a small top and a large bottom. There is a spiral ladder structure inside, with a floor of four meters, which can accommodate people and tools.The top floor is hollowed out on all sides, and the lights inside are lit after dark.If it is daytime, it is more of a warning function.

According to Yunze's request, a lightning rod needs to be built on the top to lead the electricity to the ground.

Yunze ground a lens with the high-quality white crystal collected on the road, and he made a small device. The lens can collect the light of the oil lamp and emit it as a beam of light on one side.In this way, the illumination range of the lighthouse is wider.

The tower keeper needs to turn the device so that the beam of light turns back and forth to sweep and guide the lost ship back to the port.

Yunze has been following the building of the lighthouse. Menis has a job belonging to the temple, and Prince Sham seems a little idle. He fell in love with the task of exterminating pirates.

But Prince Sham he, seasick.

I was so dizzy that I could only vomit and beat the pirates.Strange to say, he vomited like that, and it didn't affect the force value at all.After killing one, he vomited for a while, then raised the knife and then vomited again, as if he was not seasick, but was vomited ugly by pirates.

The pirates felt insulted, so the two sides fought harder.

"Prince Sham is seasick?" Yunze was stunned, no wonder he never came to the port before.

Menis was a little helpless: "I only found out this way. He concealed it too deeply. Sham came here to overcome this obstacle, but he tried too hard."

Taixi is a country that favors martial arts, and only a brave king can make people want to follow.Although seasickness is a small problem, it will also affect everyone's evaluation of Prince Sham.Prince Sham used to keep this small weakness, but after having a child, he gradually realized the responsibility of being a middle-class person with "the old and the young", and he wanted to overcome this problem.

"Seasickness is called the fear of the sea, but Sham is obviously not afraid, and he still vomits as soon as he gets on the boat." Menis has nothing to do about this.

"This has nothing to do with fear, it has to do with the body. The more anxious the prince is, the worse the effect will be. He should calm down and deal with this little weakness. Find something for him to do, calm down."

"For example?" Menis looked at Yunze.

"How about letting him raise ducks?" Yun Ze said.
