After a long time, Aleister's spirit gradually stabilized again.
Just like after red-hot metal is quenched, its hardness will also increase.
After this heart-wrenching cry, Aleister felt that his spirit had become much calmer and stronger, and his brain had cooled down and he became sober.
Although Isabel wanted Aleister to lie in her arms and have a good night's rest, completely relaxing her spirit. After all, she actually didn't lack such a night...
After all, it was already late at night when Aleister entered the dreamland. So much time had passed since then, so it was very likely that Isabel was about to wake up.
But Aleister's attitude was very persistent.
She still hoped that Isabel could mention all the important things first.
Isabel couldn't resist her, so she had no choice but to agree.
And she also keenly captured this detail - it seems that Aleister has a deep anxiety and uneasiness about any time-wasting behavior on his part, which is no different from Aiwass.
"Do you remember the port of Midsummer County?"
Isabel asked softly: "I remember that last month you went to Theocratic Country... I mean, when Aiwass went to Theocratic Country, he took the boat from Shengxia County."
"Well, the repairs there are pretty good."
Aleister nodded.
She had a fairly deep impression of Shengxia County - of course, it was definitely not "comfortable and luxurious".
After all, the Isle of Glass itself is Avalon's largest port.
If Aiwass, who grew up on the Glass Island, means that Shengxia County is well-constructed, then this is definitely a polite statement.
"But as a developed port city, Shengxia County already has all the necessary elements. In other words, the population is not enough...far from it.
"As a port city, there are only a dozen people on one street! The number of newly built empty warehouses is even more than the active population; there are more trolls under construction than workers dismantling goods at the port."
Aleister commented: "I can only say that the goblin engineering team did a really good job. The ground is very flat, even compared to the Glass Island. And everything in Shengxia County is very new——
Even when I walk down any street, I can smell the paint."
"Is that the goblin engineering team? I thought it was the troll's engineering team."
Isabel was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "The engineering team is all tall and big trolls, and almost all of them are extraordinary people... It scared many people at first. After all, they are not only aliens, but they also look...
It’s so terrifying that everyone is an extraordinary person… They can build a building out of thin air in almost a day.”
"Lou?" Aleister was a little confused.
There seemed to be no tall buildings that could be called buildings in her memory, only small bungalows.
"Well, a special kind of building. It is said that it is very popular in Xingzhi, and workers will live in this kind of place... It seems to be because the cement in Xingzhi has high strength, and it seems to be because the bricks are strong and the buildings can be repaired.
It's very tall and won't collapse easily."
Isabel nodded and added: "When you left, they hadn't actually finished construction yet - those trolls first cleared the dense forests around Shengxia County and bought the wood at market prices, and then started
Build the road; after they finish building the road, they will start building warehouses; after you leave, they will start building residential buildings.
"It's different from the house we live in. It's a very tall building. Each high-rise building is more than ten stories high, and there are two elevators sealed with barbed wire outside - the elevators are even taller than those at Lloyd's.
Advanced. Each floor of these high-rise buildings has more than twenty empty rooms; each room can accommodate four beds, which is even more spacious than many hotels.
"According to this specification, one building alone can accommodate 1,300 people. And such a high-rise building can be built by just one construction team in less than two days - even though it is completely undecorated.
Gray walls and empty rooms, but the efficiency is too amazing. The five construction teams only spent more than ten days to build thirty-three high-rise buildings of this size...
"The gray buildings can be seen from far away. Many reporters made a special trip to Shengxia County just to take pictures of these huge buildings... They regard these buildings as 'advanced and advanced'.
Proof of development', 'the architectural style popular in Star Antimony'. As a result, Avalon seems to be starting to build this kind of building now... but it is difficult to buy such bricks in Avalon, they are on the black market
It fetched a very high price.”
"...That's really amazing."
Aleister was really surprised when he heard the news.
She still underestimated the labor force of the trolls. She originally thought that they only came to build warehouses and build railways, but she did not expect that they even helped cut down the dense forest next to them and build roads.
In this era, it is not the turn to discuss issues of environmental protection and greening - the main reasons affecting urban expansion today are the rugged land, complex terrain, and dense jungles. The cost of building roads in batches is too high, and most of them require
City managers pay.
Therefore, in Avalon, except for the main transportation thoroughfares, expansion elsewhere must be done by developers who have purchased land ownership.
For those cities where the land has no development value, it is likely that only a small part of the urban area in the center is accessible. The outer ring of towns and villages are all bumpy dirt roads. This is also in an era when trains have begun to become popular, but there are still a large number of roads.
The reason why horse-drawn carriages and even donkey-carts are used for trade.
It is said that one troll slave can replace seven hard-working workers, but I didn't expect these extraordinary slaves to be so capable.
No wonder those resting slave owners want to buy a large number of trolls.
This means that if they want to, they can build a simple military fortress in just a week from the ground. The reinforced bricks of Star Antimony are extremely strong, and even the large-caliber artillery mounted on the ship will be difficult to crush with one shot.
A military fortress of this size is even stronger than many fortresses in Avalon.
"What technology are they using?"
Aleister immediately thought of this question: "Can we send someone to learn from it secretly?"
"...Well, maybe not."
Isabel hesitated to speak: "Our workers may not be able to carry steel bars several meters high and run wildly. Their cars are not even pushed, but carried and run. Because the wheels must be used sparingly and not wear too much, so it is not
People push carts, but carts ride people.
"And many of their construction techniques - it is said that the workers can't understand them at all.
"They were just a group of people gathered around the campfire, and while singing and dancing, the cement flew up on its own and spread along the wall. The wall would even crawl on its own and eat the cement. This scared many people at first.
Many people reported to the Supervisory Bureau and the church, and there was a commotion for a long time.
"But the quality of those trolls is pretty good. Although they don't speak Avalonian, they are quite polite.
"Because some townspeople gradually got used to it. Seeing that they were working too hard, they went to give them some food and water. They knelt on the ground directly. When they got used to it, they turned into salutes and thanks.
"When they were about to leave, many residents of Shengxia County had developed feelings for them - they asked for blessings from each other, thinking that this was an auspicious force..."
Isabel vividly tells the story of Avalon.
"It makes sense - after all, they did bring prosperity and wealth to Shengxia County. It's not surprising that the locals regard them as the embodiment of wealth and luck."
Aleister nodded: "There are these solid roads that have been repaired, densely packed port warehouses, goods handled from the port, and three railways that are about to be opened to traffic, running through Avalon's east and west... and these solid buildings that can accommodate a large population.
Buildings, it is only a matter of time before Shengxia County becomes rich."
At this point, Aleister thought for a while and decided to make it clear to Isabel: "By the way...those trolls kneeling down are probably not out of gratitude or politeness...but out of fear."
