The super lord of the island

Chapter 314 313. Construction of commercial streets and material liquidation
After the road is widened, foundations will be excavated on both sides of the road to build shops.

The shop is a three-story stone structure, with people living upstairs and street-facing shops downstairs. Myron put a lot of thought into making the commercial street the best it can be.

He takes into account that different types of industries have different needs.

For example, there are obvious differences in the interior design of barber shops and tailor shops. Therefore, they do not blindly build according to a single template. Instead, they try to make each shop distinctive while ensuring that the exterior integrity of the entire street is maintained. .

This is a delicate job. It took half a month just to ask the merchants for their opinions and draw the drawings. After the foundation steps were completed, stone bricks of the same size and specifications were dragged from the quarry and built layer by layer.

The adhesive used for the gaps between stone bricks is a commonly used local one. The production method is very simple. Four materials, including glutinous rice, fish bone powder, clay, and rubber sap, are mixed in a certain proportion and boiled.

The specific production process and material ratio are detailed in the "Basic Building Construction Knowledge Manual" that Jialan once obtained through achievement rewards and was later given to Myron.

Since last year, Mailun has been trying to boil adhesives by himself in the Department of Construction. Wuguang Island is rich in products and most materials can be found. He only needs to buy some extra glutinous rice to boil adhesives in large quantities, which can save a lot. cost.

This homemade adhesive has been used in the construction of high-end residential areas. The effect is very good, it is not afraid of wind and rain, and its service life is as long as 30 to 50 years.

In mid-July, when the foundation of the commercial street was partially completed and the construction of structures above the ground officially began, another project of the Department of Construction - a high-end residential area, referred to as Gaozhai No. 1, was completely completed.

This is the first high-end residential community in Jiguang Town, with a total number of 150 buildings. The community is equipped with a complete infrastructure system. It is spacious, clean and bright that can be directly seen by the eyes.

In terms of living comfort, this community has exceeded 99% of the residences in Amethyst Islands;
In terms of price, the ultra-low price of 5 gold per building is even more value for money.

After all, when it was first planned and built, Jialan planned to attract foreign residents to settle in with the advantages of living environment, low price, etc., and now the results are remarkable.

By the time the community was completed, 150 of the 136 buildings had been sold. And with the investment and construction of commercial streets, businessmen from the nearest Kumu Island and Fiji Island have become increasingly interested in Aurora Town, and even think that investing in properties in Aurora Town is a good idea. A sure-profit trade.

However, the preferential policies of Aurora Town are for immigrants. Every house must be occupied by people, so leaving the investment vacant is not allowed.

While the land reclamation and construction inside Wuguang Island was in full swing, the foreign trade and export business was also going very smoothly.

The first thing to be sold out was the [-] tons of wheat in the grain depot. This batch of wheat was harvested last autumn. The remaining [-] tons will be eaten during this year's autumn harvest, freeing up space to store this year's new grain.

The sale of wheat is interspersed with the sale of potatoes, fruits and vegetables.

Two hundred acres of potatoes are harvested in batches. Each time 20 acres are harvested, 100 tons can be harvested, leaving 20 tons for internal consumption, and the other 80 tons are sent to Diamond Island for sale, once a week.

As for fruits and vegetables, the last time we used the ice chip transportation method, we achieved good results. When transporting potatoes, we would bring 20 tons of freshly picked fruits and vegetables.

Moreover, fruits and vegetables are different from crops such as potatoes. Thanks to the favorable tropical climate, the growth cycle of vegetables is shorter and they can even continue to bear fruit while retaining their roots. In addition, Jialan has newly placed 40 acres of vegetables in the third ring area. field.

Therefore, it is possible to supply a full 20 tons of seasonal fruits and vegetables every week only if the climate conditions are up to standard, the soil fertility is sufficient, and the planting area is wide.

However, for the city of Lungozli with a population of one million, this portion of potatoes, fruits and vegetables is far from enough. The Crystal Chamber of Commerce needs more resources to increase the influence of the family.

Thanks to Tinise's suggestion, this summer, snowflake salt has jumped from a casual bottom item to a hot-selling product, quickly occupying the market with the advantage of high quality and low price.

Due to production constraints, it is currently only sold on Diamond Island, leaving some breathing room for several other salt factories.The same goes for Snow Beer. The product that was originally sold by Philly has now become the top star of the Crystal Chamber of Commerce. Grump personally controls the distribution rights of [-] tons of Snow Beer every month, and has become a popular person in the eyes of major pubs. .

Considering that Snow Beer belongs to the producer's market, Grump took the initiative to waive the commission for this product and did not charge any fees. He only helped sell it.

Although Grump may allocate a little more share to his Rose Tavern, it is a win-win for Garan since he does not have to pay extra for Snow Beer.

After all, if Feili is responsible for selling, he will take 1 gold profit per barrel. 90 tons is 300 barrels, which is 300 gold every month. This is not a small sum.

Of course, Feili must be comforted. After all, he is an old man who has contributed to the territory. However, Feili said that the tourism business on hand is enough for him to run, and the head fee he gets from the Ministry of Tourism every month will not be spent at all. Not finished.

During the conversation, I learned that Feili sold his house in the First Ring District and bought a new house in Gaozhai No. 1 Community. He also met a considerate middle-aged woman who was an immigrant. We are in a relationship, and if nothing goes wrong, we will get married and start a family next year, which can be called the second spring of old age.

In this regard, Jialan naturally sent congratulations.

Crystal Chamber of Commerce Headquarters
Today's Crystal Chamber of Commerce is no longer the deserted scene of the past, and is much more prosperous with people coming and going.

In the Chamber of Commerce, Grump had just sent away several people who had come to visit the person in charge of the tavern, and then called his daughter into the office to inquire about the current status of fund withdrawals.

"We have sold so many goods, it's time to give Jialan some explanation, otherwise he will think that we are bullying the small ones."

Tinis smiled and replied: "He is not as stingy as you think."

After all, Tynis took the latest summary of financial statements and handed them to Grandp.

"Starting from the first batch of wheat shipped back by the Red Stone, as of today, it has taken 55 days to receive a total of 300 tons of wheat, 640 tons of fresh potatoes, 120 tons of fruits and vegetables, 50 tons of refined salt, and 500 barrels of snow beer (about 150 tons)
Most of the goods in each store have been sold out and cashed out, leaving only a little bit of salt and potatoes, but they will be sold out in a few days. "

"Well, the resource output of Wuguang Island is really quite a lot. It has only been operating for two years and it has already produced so much. How can it be developed in the future?
Daughter, you should hurry up. I heard that there are many maids in that boy's castle, and one of them has even become a high-ranking servant. Did you see it when you were there last time? "

"You should be talking about sister Elena. She is a very nice person. She comes from the Viscount family of Walrus Island, surnamed Bai Haikui. Later, her home was captured by the Waxas and she luckily escaped to Sunless Island. Her life experience was miserable, so she took care of her. Jialan, I feel relieved."

"You, you, are too soft-tempered and it's not good."

Seeing that his daughter actually spoke for the boy, Grump was a little angry, but he had no choice but to ask his wife to talk to his daughter after he went back.

You must know that the status of women is different from that of men, especially in aristocratic families, whether they are favored or not is the most important thing.

Grump shook his head, shook the financial report in his hand and returned to work.
