If you ask Angel to make a cement, she will definitely not be able to do it. Although she knows the general ingredients in it, she is not a chemical engineer after all, so she doesn't know the details.However, she has seen other people burn bricks, but that is too damaging to the environment. It is unnecessary and complicated for the current Wolfe Plain.

After all, a relative in her family once opened a brick kiln, but she only had a glimpse of how to burn bricks when she was a child. It's not as realistic as this kind of earthen wall.

In fact, the Earl of Pingyuan's city was mostly built from the rocks in the nearby mountains and forests. Using modern people's concept, a square in front of a skyscraper can almost represent how small the city is.Of course, Angel did this to sympathize with the hard life of these serfs on the one hand, and to show her father on the other hand.

Don't you think I'm unrealistic? I'll show you step by step!

Because the serfs knew that these earthen houses were closely related to them, their enthusiasm immediately increased several times. With the experience of the first house, the latter houses could be built in groups of four or five people. It's really a lot faster, but it's a pity for the nearby mountains and forests, where hundreds of trees have been cut down.

With the completion of the renovation of the farmhouse, Angel had already run out of food, so she had no choice but to go to her mother to ask for food.She finally discovered that her father was not very humane, but instead persuaded her mother, and then the mother persuaded her father to have a higher chance of success.

The Earl of Pingyuan has already heard of Angel's grades in the past ten days, and seeing her holding his mother's hand and running to cheat food, he couldn't help saying, "You are very good to those slaves." ah!"

Angel laughed and said, "They live in a better place, so they can work with more peace of mind!"

"I'm afraid that if you treat them too well, they will want to get better and better instead!" the earl said in an indifferent way.

This sentence made Angel immediately alert, and she couldn't help thinking of a sentence: When slaves become slave owners, they are often more terrifying than the previous slave owners!It seems that people have nothing to do with enough food and clothing, and they like to come here to make revolutions, at least in the West.

It seems that you can't be too kind to these serfs, otherwise if they turn against you, you will definitely not die well!Angel thought about it secretly, and she said with a childlike face: "I just help them build a house, it's nothing!"

"Heh, they live better than the common people in the city. What do you make the people in the city think?" Earl Pingyuan asked, but his face was much better.

Angel pinched his chin with his little hand and his thinking expression immediately attracted the adults. Victoria smiled and said, "You, you treat her like a little adult!"

The count was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he patted Angel's head and said, "Well, you shouldn't ask little Angel the questions that adults can't solve!"

"Yes!" Angel suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I have a solution!"

The count asked: "The method, what method?"

Angel tilted his head sideways and asked the count, "Father, does His Majesty the Emperor not allow you to expand the city?"

The earl said: "Well, this is a royal taboo. Besides, expanding the city means a lot of manpower and financial resources. It is impossible to complete it without the support of imperial funds!"

Angel said: "I have seen the imperial decree case, it seems that the size of the city is determined by the height of the high wall, the scope and the size of the castle, but if we don't build high walls, it seems that there is no problem if we don't build castles?"

The earl blinked, as if surprised by Angel's words, he said, "Tell me what you mean!"

"I mean, we can divide it into the inner city and the outer city!" Angel said: "We can build a wall of mixed earth and stone on the periphery of the city, and then build houses for the people in the wall according to the uniform specifications, and then in the Build a higher wall and city gate on the outermost periphery. These walls do not need to be as high as our current seven or eight meters, but need to be about three meters. Our soldiers set up guard towers on the periphery to guard them. In case of war or danger, the people We can escape back to the inner city, so we have an extra line of defense!"

This idea of ​​expanding the city is actually more based on the planning and design of Beijing in ancient times. As we all know, there are two cities in Beijing, the inner city and the inner city. The inner city is the Forbidden City, the residence of the emperor and dignitaries; It was inhabited by ordinary people and merchants.Of course, there are also shops and brothels, all of which are there.

Expansion in this way can be said to greatly reduce the cost, and it can even be said to be the prototype of a big city. If you think about it, when a city develops, safety is no longer the ruler’s concern, and the people themselves will care. At that time, everyone will raise funds for the outer city wall It will be built higher and higher and eventually become a perfect barrier.

This method can be said to effectively plan the urban layout, and will improve the comfort and activity space of the residents. Naturally, the Earl of Pingyuan is eager to move. Who doesn't want to live better, and who doesn't want their city to be bigger?

He held Angel's shoulders excitedly and said, "Tell Dad what to do, this time Dad will listen to you!"

Victoria was a little worried: "This way, isn't it considered an expansion? I'm afraid that the imperial capital..."

"Hehe, we don't count as expansion. As long as we don't build a castle and build a tall city wall, it won't be considered expansion!" Earl Pingyuan said with a smile: "It can only be regarded as expanding the residential area due to overpopulation." That's all!"

Angel nodded and said, "Yes, and we only need to build up the outer walls. The houses can be built by people themselves, and we can sell the land inside the walls to them!"

"Hahahahaha, little Angel, what are you talking about, sell them?" The Earl of Pingyuan laughed loudly: "All the land in Wolfe Plain belongs to our family, and we mainly allow them to build houses, which is enough for them to be grateful Oh! By the way, didn’t you say you want to plan a commercial area, let’s put it there too, residential area, commercial area, but our inner city is a bit more spacious and clean!”

"Father, I think we should also lower the tax for passing merchants and guide them to trade here. I believe that our city will develop faster in that way!" Angel said.

"I'll talk about this later, I'll talk about it later, let's talk about it after the outer city is built!" Earl Pingyuan waved his hand, a little absent-minded.

Angel knew that she was in a hurry again, so she took it one step at a time, making the city plan better than anything else, and then she sighed about her own plan, Nima, isn't this a waste of time, and I have to redesign it!

----

Two years later, one morning, someone was still yawning at the gate of the outer city, and a knight in the distance had already galloped all the way on a tall horse.

"Who is it!" The soldiers immediately pointed their long knives at the galloping knight.

"Woo~!" The knight pulled the rein, and the steed's front hooves immediately stood up. He took out a two-finger-thick wooden barrel from his waist and said, "Come here to deliver the letter. Your Miss Angel has been admitted to the Imperial Royal Academy." Yes, this is the letter of admission, and besides, His Majesty has decided to come to Wolfe Plain for inspection, and he will arrive in half a month, so you should immediately notify the Earl to accept the order!"

"Obey, obey!" The soldiers at the door did not expect to be a member of the Royal Knights. They are all officials. Immediately, someone pulled a horse from the stable and ran towards the inner city.

The rest of the soldiers immediately bowed and said, "Please, Sir Knight, the Earl is in the inner city!"

The knight was wearing silver-white armor, with a long sword on his waist, and a lion embroidered on his chest armor. At first glance, he looked like the Wild Lion Legion of the Royal Knights!He slowed down his horse and walked into the outer city with a simple but strong gate.

Rows of one-story houses mixed with earth and stone stood neatly on the city wall, and trenches were excavated to connect them, which seemed to be used for drainage.Not far away, there are small second floors. There are many merchants and hawkers on the street in front of the buildings, selling various items.

Neat and clean!The knight nodded secretly. The people here don’t seem to live very well, and the buildings don’t look good, but it’s better than the word neat and clean. This very well-built house makes you feel very pleasing to the eye, and there are even Signs tell you what area is next to you.

A row of soldiers stood at the gate of the inner city. Seeing the knights saluting in unison, the knights nodded and saw that the Earl had already walked out of the castle.

The knight got off his horse, and led the horse towards the inner city. Immediately, a soldier took his reins and led the horse aside. Only then did he realize that there was a row of stables built next to the gate of the inner city. Gathered a dozen horses.

As soon as the Earl of Pingyuan stepped forward, the knight knelt on one knee and said, "Vodur sees His Royal Highness the Earl of Pingyuan!"

Earl Pingyuan immediately raised his hand and said, "Excuse me!"

Only then did the knight stand up, and then he took out a small wooden barrel from his waist and said, "This is the young lady's admission letter, and this is His Majesty's order!"

The Laurentian Empire did not make the imperial decree as dazzling as the Eastern Dynasty. In fact, it was just a letter written on a parchment scroll and stamped with wax seal, even if it was conveyed.If the decree is simple after all, it is to be written by a document, signed and sealed by the king; if it is important, it is written by the king himself, and then signed and sealed!

The Earl of Pingyuan put his feet together immediately, then bowed slightly and saluted the parchment before taking it with both hands, with a pious expression on his face.He opened the parchment scroll, the emperor's own handwriting, which means that he heard that the great changes in the plain city of Wolff Plain in two years have been spread throughout the empire, and there are even bards singing, which aroused the emperor's curiosity. Check out how it has changed!

The Earl of Pingyuan couldn't help but wonder, didn't I send you a copy of the current situation of Pingyuan City a year ago, as if I didn't know anything!

However, the sudden arrival of the emperor in person still made Earl Pingyuan a little nervous. He couldn't help but ask, "I wonder when His Majesty will arrive?"

"It is estimated to be half a month, but it may be earlier, it depends on the time His Majesty spends on the road for sightseeing!" The knight replied with a determined face.

The Earl of Pingyuan snorted when he heard the words, and then said: "Weary from the long journey, let's go to the castle to rest for a while, I wonder if the Vaudur knights will return later?" The so-called return means returning to the emperor to reply to the errand.

The Vodur knight smiled and said: "No, His Majesty ordered me to deliver the letter, and then just wait here for his chariots to arrive. Lord Earl, don't worry about me, I just want to look around!"

The Earl of Pingyuan said: "In this case, I will find someone to take you to live in the posthouse!" As he spoke, he called a servant to take Vodur away. When he left, he secretly said to the attendant: "Take two A whore/female in the past!"

"Yes!" The attendant immediately retreated knowingly.
