I'm Going Both Ways On Game Of Thrones

Chapter 352 Fishing Fleet

In real war, you can’t count on this group of farmers with wooden forks.

Jason Liu has strong financial support and has no worries of the Westeros nobles at all, so the scale of his soldiers has been slowly increasing.

Yes, Jason Liu has been planning to replenish his Northern First Army with 7,000 men, and now his army is only about 3,000 men.

1,000 spearmen, 1,000 cavalry, 500 archers, and several hundred soldiers stationed at the logging camp outside Winterfell.

Together, there are nearly 3,000 people.

After inspecting the cavalry and spearmen in training, Jason Liu, under the escort of the guards led by Dick and Kent, walked through the cluttered construction site of Spark City and came to Spark Harbor, which was about to be completed.

The 500-meter-long lakeshore in the south of the original Lake Seller has now been completely poured into a wide and flat wharf with reinforced concrete. Outside the wharf is the lake surface that has been dug several meters deep.

The 500-meter-long pier is enough for a large number of merchant ships to moor and dock.

In order to ensure that the merchant ships can smoothly enter the pier, Old Torrant and the others specially brought a large number of workers to dig a few meters into the bottom of the lake near the pier, so that the entering merchant ships would not run aground.

Anyway, the displacement of the merchant ships of Quanyou World is basically two or three hundred tons, and the maximum is not more than 1,000 tons, and they can all be docked at the Xinghuo Port pier.

With the sailors recruited by Jason Liu from Baigang, he has been dredging the 400-kilometer Changbai River from Xinghuo Port to Baigang for several months. Now there are merchant ships directly from Baigang Port, along the Bairen upstream river. Saylor Lake here.

After the opening of Sailor Lake Spark Port and White Port, more and more merchant ships chose to go by water, which not only carried a large volume of ships, but also was faster than land carriages.

For a time, merchant ships from all over Westeros and the free city-states on the other side of the narrow sea came and went one after another on the White Blade River.

The business of Easter’s shop is even hotter than in Winterfell.

Jason Liu needed a lot of stones, wood, grain, vegetables, cloth, etc. to build the port and Starfire City. After the Baigang was opened to navigation, the transportation volume suddenly increased several times, which can fully meet the consumption of Starfire City.

It attracted a large number of small businessmen to do business here in Spark City, and the small market that spontaneously formed by the lake became more and more lively.

“Tollante, how long will it take for Spark Harbor to be fully built?”

Jason Liu stood on the pier, watching more than a dozen small merchant ships sailing in and out of the lake, moored at half of the Xinghuo pier that has been put into use, the sailors took out the wide wooden board from the boat, put it on the pier, and put the boat on the pier. fixed.

Then the workers at the dock knocked down the cargo on the ship and sent it to a carriage parked on the side of the port. The owner of the merchant ship kept shouting and reminding the workers to carry it carefully.

Sir, “As long as there is another half month, the whole port will be fully put into use. The wharf has been deepened by more than 3 meters, and even large merchant ships can moor in.” Old Torrante said with a slouched body. said lightly.

Old Torrant has been directing the construction of the port on the lake here in Sailor for the past six months.

To have the opportunity to participate in such a big project as Spark Harbor, old Torrante is very proud and works very hard. One person is always in charge of the port construction and has thousands of workers. This sense of accomplishment is only called masons.” ” can only be felt by architectural engineers.

At least, Jason Liu didn’t know much about construction engineering, he just thought that the old Torant and the masons did a good job.

Jason Liu, with a telescope he bought from Hyundai in his hand, casually looked out on the shore of Lake Saylor, heard old Torrant’s words, and said with a smile, “Well done, Torrant. Wait until Spark Harbor is fully built and put into operation. On the day of use, I will reward you with a generous reward, which is in addition to the salary, and I will reward you as an additional reward! It is really hard for you to be able to build this port so quickly!”

“Thank you for your generosity, my lord, it is an honor for the little people to serve (baah) you!” Hearing that Sir Jason was going to reward them with a generous bonus, he had long known the generosity of the young earl, and the old trustee Rand was looking forward to it.

These masons from Winterfell and White Harbor have decided to move their whole family to Spark City. Compared with Winterfell and White Harbor, Master Jason of Spark City pays more attention to craftsmen like them. The salary is extremely generous, and of course everyone is more willing to work for Mr. Jason.

“My lord, our fleet is back!” Kent shouted happily, pointing to the fleet entering from the Bairen River in the east.

Jason Liu looked up and saw five boats lined up in a long line, slowly sailing into Lake Saylor, and then heading towards the port.

These five boats are old boats that Jason Liu bought from White Harbor City, and new boats are still under construction.

Each ship is more than 30 meters long and has a displacement of more than 200 tons. It is a very common merchant ship in Westeros.

The sailors on these ships were all those who were recruited from Baigang last time to clear the Bairen River. There were more than 100 people in total. They were divided into five ships, and the manpower was temporarily enough.

However, Jason Liu is still recruiting sailors. He wants to build a fleet of his own. He needs at least 10 ships, and he needs to double the number of sailors.

When the East family’s fleet was docked at the dock, there were immediately port workers to help fix the boat, build wooden boards, and then carry out boxes of sea fish from the cabin.

For a time, the fishy smell filled the pier, and the cold wind blew past, floating everywhere.

Fortunately, the temperature on the north side is low, and the small refrigeration equipment that Jason Liu acquired from Hyundai has been loaded into the cargo yard of five ships and powered by diesel generators, so that they can fish from the narrow sea and transport the fish. Go back to Starfire City.

Set-Lance took the five captains to arrange the unloading of the ship, and hurriedly walked towards this side.

“Sir!” Seth-Lance and the other four captains bowed and saluted.

Jason Liu put down the telescope in his hand and handed it to Kent beside him, looking at the dark-faced, skin-skinned faces of the sea breeze, unable to hide the vicissitudes of life and the tired captains.

Hard work, “You guys, Seth, is this going to sea going well?”

As Jason Liu said, he took them out of the dock, boarded a large luxury carriage, and let the five prudent captains sit in the carriage, and Barlow drove the carriage back to Starfire City.

Set bowed his body, with a hint of heart palpitations on his dark and red face, “Sir, although we encountered wind and waves this time, one of the ship’s masts broke, but fortunately we all came back safely. Only this time The catch is less than last time,,,”
