Chapter five hundred and ninety-fifth, if you want to be rich, build roads first
"Build roads?" Minister of the Interior Bakla was called over by Jia Zhengjin and was a little dazed after hearing his instructions.
"That's right! I want to build a road leading to Hailong City and the Elf Forest first!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Pavating the road completely will help reduce transportation time, facilitate the transportation of minerals from there, and also
Speed up exchanges between cities. There is a saying that 'if you want to get rich, build roads first'. Roads are very important infrastructure for us!"
"Hmm~" Bakla thought for a moment and felt that it made sense, "Lord Keen, although I don't understand what a road means. But it is true that building roads is beneficial."
"So is there any problem with the materials?" Jia Zhengjin moved his left hand slightly, and the ugly monster became heavier and heavier. He always felt uncomfortable standing on his shoulders.
Bakla did not pay attention to this detail. He reached out and touched his beard and nodded: "I have carefully checked the materials in the warehouse. Building a road to Hailong City should not be a problem. But I am afraid there is still a long way to go to the Elf Forest!"
"
"Then let each mine give priority to collecting stones and sand!" Jia Zhengjin said to him, "Now I have Matru to help me purchase ore, and the elves will transport the ore to the dwarves for me. In a short time, other
The mineral resources are sufficient. This road will be opened first, and then we will open the road to farther cities or countries!"
"But Lord Keen, building roads is a very expensive project!" Bakla suddenly said worriedly when he heard this, "It's just leading to Sea Dragon City and the Elf Forest. If you want to build more roads, no matter what
Whether it’s time, money or minerals, I’m afraid the loss is so huge that we, Holy Dragon City, can’t bear it!”
Seeing that his Minister of the Interior was worried, Jia Zhengjin couldn't help but smile and said: "No need to worry! Now we are spending our own money to build the road, which is considered the initial cost. But in the future, the leaders of other countries will have to pay for me to build the road!"
"Where do you start with this?" Bakla looked confused.
Jia Zhengjin stood up, slowly walked to Bakla and lowered his head and said: "As long as we lay out a flat cement road first, not only Hailong City and the Forest of Elves will benefit, but also the caravans and travelers from other countries will pass by.
You can experience how easy it is to walk on a flat road and how much time it can save on the way. Moreover, the formula of cement is simple, but only we know it. Businessmen who are used to this road naturally hope that it can be made a must for them.
Everything can be so smooth and smooth! In the beginning, maybe it was just a few businessmen who paid for us to build the road for business. In the future, more and more people will taste the benefits. Are you afraid that the people who asked us to build the road will not come?"
"That makes sense!" Bakla said with a smile, stroking his hands, "As long as we increase our visibility, business will come in an endless stream. When the time comes, we will need gold coins, manpower, and materials, and there will be no shortage of anything.
!”
"That's right!" Jia Zhengjin smiled and turned to the window and looked outside, "Then we can also carry out supporting sales and launch street lights together, allowing power to be extended to anywhere that can be reached by roads! In addition to road construction,
In addition, it can also be the largest and only e-commerce company! When the time comes, gold coins will really come in, and you will never worry about running out of money!"
"Lord Keen is really thoughtful!" Bakla was very happy thinking about that scene.
"Besides these two, as long as I can get oil and plastics," Jia Zhengjin said, looking at the moonlight outside the window and squinting, "I can also wholesale motorcycles and build signal towers to any corner of the world. Anywhere.
Any business can make me enough gold coins, so I will never have to worry about expenses!"
"Magic car? Signal tower?" Bakla looked confused and couldn't understand.
Jia Zhengjin didn't bother to correct his misnomer on motorcycles: "When I have enough wealth, I will be able to recruit millions of imperial troops and build the Holy Dragon City into the strongest and most powerful city! By then,
I want to recruit the strongest people in this world and build a strong concentration camp. Even if the Dragon of Darkness really wants to destroy the world, at least I can keep my city and not be affected by anything..."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.
"Lord Keen!" Bakla interrupted him cautiously, "Speaking of street lights, our inner city and outer city are all brightly lit at night, but the new city is completely dark. Do you think you can also try your best to lighten the lights in the new city?
Have street lights been built? Many people in our clan have mentioned this to me, hoping to enjoy the best night lights like other people in the city. Of course, I also know that the new city is temporarily built, and it is not necessarily possible to turn on the street lights in a short time.
It’s all done…”
After hearing this, Jia Zhengjin turned around and thought for a moment: "Street lights are easy to build, so the problem is not big. We can also build more thermal power generating units, but the fuel problem is more troublesome. The amount of wood consumed in the construction of our new city is terrible.
Until we find better fuel alternatives, it will be very stressful to supply multiple thermal power generating units at the same time! Unless other construction in the city is stopped first."
"That's not possible!" Bakla shook his head hurriedly, "Currently, our city construction is at a critical point, and we must not stop it suddenly. It seems that we have to put this issue aside for now..."
"It's not that there is no way!" Jia Zhengjin thought for a moment, "General Isa of the elves said that the dwarves have discovered oil deposits, but they just don't know its use or the method of collecting it. They even thought it was the blood of demons.
.I have asked General Isa to write to the dwarves to discuss the oil extraction project. The oil can not only be used to refine gasoline and supply it to my motorcycle, but can also be used as fuel to generate electricity! As long as stable oil is obtained, how many additional facilities will be needed?
There is no problem with the thermal power generating units set up!”
"Oil?" Bakra was confused about this new term again.
"In short, we must solve the power problem as soon as possible, because more electrical appliances will appear in the future, and there will be many places that use electricity!" Jia Zhengjin said, "But the most important thing at the moment is the construction of roads, especially the ones leading to Hailong City and
Do you understand the path to the Elf Forest?"
"Yes! I will definitely arrange manpower as soon as possible, but as for the kobold craftsmen, I still need more help from Mr. Keen!" Bakla also stood up and looked at Jia Zhengjin.
"No problem!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and said to him, "In the past few days, I will build more kobold lairs and recruit kobold craftsmen on a large scale for construction. You send people to Hailong City and the Forest of Elves first, and build them with the other party.
Please explain the road clearly to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings!"
"Yes!" Bakla nodded respectfully, "Then I'll take my leave first!"
