Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 740 Late Spring (Additional update for the alliance leader's dreamy helplessness)

In the next few days, Zhou Xu casually handled some internal affairs in the Old Continent.

But this time, it was obviously impossible for him to stay here forever. It was almost time to leave for the New World again.

As for the Lizard Man, I didn’t have enough time to spare, so I didn’t go there.

The main reason is that the current core project there is the southern development.

It is said to be a core project, but in fact it is just a matter of sending a few groups of immigrants as labor force to slowly carry out some construction there.

Taking into account regional issues and various development factors, it is estimated that by the time the New World is almost fully developed, the southern development there has not made much progress. There is nothing interesting to see on this trip, and the road is so far. , there is no need to waste this time.

There was nothing Zhou Xu could do about this situation.

In these waves, they were forced by the situation. Their population and territory expanded too fast, and they were unable to develop at once.

This food must be eaten one bite at a time, and development must be carried out piece by piece. As for the order of priority, it is definitely not possible to follow the order of occupation. Instead, whichever side will be developed with greater value and higher profits will be developed first.

Once again, Zhou Xu's hot air balloon landed outside the garrison camp at the end of the mountains.

After that, they planned to leave the hot air balloon here directly. It would be troublesome to carry this hot air balloon through the energy channel, so it was better to just stay here and save worry.

As for the hot-air balloon operators in the New World, they have new hot-air balloons for training.

As long as the first one is successfully made, it won't take much effort to make the second and third ones. It doesn't even require Zhuang Mengdie to make it himself. It's more than enough to hand it over to her deputy. Zhuang Mengdie herself only needs to make it a little bit. It's done in one click.

In response to this situation, when Zhou Xu returned to Black Moon City this time, he also specially transferred a group of people from the Ordnance and Equipment Department to the New World to assist Zhuang Mengdie in the manufacture of city defense crossbows and hot air balloons, so as to avoid this situation. There are too many projects, and the few people in the New World can't handle them.

After passing through the energy channel, by the time Zhou Xu and the others returned here, the season was already approaching the end of spring.

Zhou Xu took the opportunity to inspect the situation in Huangsha City first.

For now, Huangsha City is the city where he has made the most renovations. In addition to the city walls, basically all the internal buildings will be bulldozed.

Of course, he didn't bulldoze everything in one go. Instead, he divided the city into areas, and then bulldozed and rebuilt them piece by piece. After this side was completed, he moved on to the next piece.

Since the main labor force is recruited from the newly recruited population here, with enough manpower, the work efficiency is really quite high.
At present, almost one-third of the area in Huangsha City has been initially renovated, and corresponding factories have been built. Coupled with the mines outside the city, it has provided a large number of jobs for internal immigrants in the New World.

It is no exaggeration to say that today's Huangsha City is the work area with the largest new population here.

The next busy ones are Black Stone City and Green Forest City. The former relies on the mine and produces stone while mining, while the latter produces wood, which are basic materials needed for construction.

While it consumes a lot of money, it is heavy in weight and large in size. Transporting it from the Old Continent would not only take time, but also increase transportation costs. Therefore, all these development materials are collected and transported from the New Continent.

And it is precisely because of this that, under Zhou Xu's operation, such a supply and demand chain has been formed in the New World, so a large number of refugees in various cities have found jobs, been paid, and have food. meal.

From this point of view, for these refugees, Zhou Xu is equivalent to their reborn parent. During this period, Zhou Xu did not forget to ask about the new currency.

Since the establishment of the new mint, in accordance with Zhou Xu's request, they have been working day and night to mint new copper coins. Calculating the time, the first batch of copper coins should have been delivered to Huangsha City.

"Reporting to the king, the first batch of copper coins has been delivered. The wages were paid the day before yesterday, so the new copper coins were distributed to the workers in the city, and the old copper coins in their hands were also replaced. As of now, Everyone is very cooperative and there is no resistance.”

This result is relatively in line with Zhou Xu's expectations.

For now, the currency replacement measures are only implemented in Huangsha City.

The newly minted currency is not enough to replace all the people. This is only one of the reasons. The more important reason is that the refugees who come to work in Huangsha City do not hold much of the currency of the old civilization.

Under this premise, when their people in Dazhou are paid wages, they must also pay their Dazhou currency. At the same time, the canteen they set up only accepts Dazhou currency.

Once currency cannot be used, it has no value at all. This is also invisible, paving the way for the subsequent replacement of old and new currencies.

During the inspection, Zhou Xu led the person in charge to an area filled with infrastructure materials.

These infrastructure materials were piled neatly, but not far away there was a pile of cars that were extremely messy, as if they were littering. They were dumped in that corner, which made them stand out.

At this moment, three workers were rummaging through the pile of broken cars. They didn't know what they found, and they began to remove parts from the car.

Seeing this, Zhou Xu asked casually.

"What's the situation over there?"

"Reporting to your Majesty, the chariots piled there are all the chariots from the original carriages here. The sizes of the parts of their chariots are different from those of our Da Zhou, so those parts cannot be used with our Da Zhou chariots. ”

Having said this, the person in charge said something respectfully.

"In response to this matter, my subordinates also wrote a report before. It was your Majesty who said that there is no need to produce parts of this size, so I asked people to leave the broken cars that could not be repaired here, and then asked people to use them. The parts were dismantled and used for later use, and the remaining parts were used as wood for fire.”

When the person in charge said this, Zhou Xu remembered it.

"I remembered, there is such a thing."

Thinking about it carefully, this should have happened in the early autumn of last year. It was essentially a small matter. After Zhou Xu finished approving the report, he quickly forgot about it. He didn't think about it until now. stand up.

In fact, similar things happen in many places, not just in cars. Many things here are different in size from theirs, resulting in parts that cannot be used on both sides.

Just like currency, these standards must be unified in the future, so these things on the other side can only be used as consumables. If they are worn out and cannot be repaired, they will be thrown away. There is absolutely no need to add a production line specifically for them. matter.

During this period, because both Green Forest City and Black Rock City were transporting infrastructure materials to Huangsha City, there were a lot of scrap cars piled up in Huangsha City, and he happened to see them today.
