1717 New American Empire

Chapter 65 Improve the town construction

Xiao Lin did not accompany his mother crazy all the time. As the top leader in charge of a town with more than 20,000 people, he usually had a lot of things to do. With such a large population in the town, it was no longer possible for Xiao Lin to rely on him.

Come to buy food. Even if they all eat compressed biscuits, filling the truck is not enough for these people to last for a month. In today's small towns, the main food sources are fruits and wild beast meat. The Indians do not have the habit of collecting food.

After buying so many Indian tribes, they didn't get any inventory at all.

The residents of the town have been urgently mobilizing to open up the land, but there are still many things to do. The most difficult thing is that these white people and Indians are not as proficient in land matters as the Chinese. They are very concerned about planting.

That is to say, small-scale, low-yield planting. White people don't know how to plant rice at all, and they have little experience with high-yielding crops such as corn on the American continent. The Indians are the same, and they don't have much planting experience.

.

Fortunately, as descendants of the Inca Empire, the people of the Eagle Tribe are quite good at growing corn. In order to become self-sufficient in food as soon as possible, everyone in the Eagle Tribe went into battle. Except for the Eagle and Apache, they went to work every day.

During the day, he had to lead a group of people to work on the land, and at night he had to receive Xiao Lin's guidance on modern agricultural techniques. In fact, Xiao Lin didn't know much about these. He just followed the agricultural textbooks he bought from the 21st century.

Fortunately, Xiao Lin also had a good helper, Qu Jun. In more than a month in the 21st century, Qu Jun helped Xiao Lin complete a terrace design drawing that was enough to produce food for 30,000 people. Although there was not much machinery, it came from

The sturdier and sharper shovels and hoes of the 21st century are still enough. Apart from the most important food, the town still lacks many things.

After food, the second most important thing is the town’s drainage pipes. The rainy season is about to enter, and the town has no drainage facilities at all. Except for the middle highland area, which is only enough for 500 people to live.

, the terrain in other places is not high. Once the rainfall is too heavy, about 90% of the entire town will be flooded by rainwater. At that time, there is no need to do anything. Just soak in the water every day and you will not get sick.

It’s weird, how can it still work?

It was only when Xiao Lin returned to Yanhuang Town that he remembered that the rainfall here was not very heavy before, and there were many trees to help block it. But now the trees around the town have either been cut down or burned. In summer, the

It started to rain heavily. Although it was not as frequent as the spring rain, it was heavy each time. In the current town, except for the gravel roads, the rest of the town was basically filled with mud.

However, there is not much Xiao Lin can do about laying underground water pipes. Because it is impossible for Xiao Lin to purchase iron or cement pipes from the 21st century. These things are large and of little value.

The luck of the century is really bad. But if you want to make durable and strong cement pipes, you must have enough cement and steel bars.

The main raw materials for making cement are limestone, clay and iron ore powder. In order to control the setting rate, less than 3% of gypsum must be added to the clinker. Xiao Lin has been looking for it for a long time, but there were not enough limestone veins nearby. Before that,

None of the Indians who had been living here knew where there was enough limestone. Just when he was looking worried about efficiency, Babu finally came back.

In this era, cement had not yet been invented. The first cement was invented by engineer Smeaton who was ordered to build a lighthouse in the English Channel in 1774 to guide ships passing by. He used limestone, clay, sand and

The iron slag was burned, crushed and mixed with water, and then poured into the water. Instead of being diluted in the water, the mixture became stronger and stronger. In this way, he finally built the first navigation lighthouse in the English Channel.

Babu has definitely never seen cement, but during the previous chat with Xiao Lin, he overheard this novel word. He learned about the function of cement from Xiao Lin, and he has always paid attention to this thing.

When he went to New York this time, he accidentally discovered that limestone is sold here in New York. Limestone can be antiseptic. Although it cannot be used for food preservation, it is still needed in many places, such as lime mortar, a commonly used building material.

Now that the most important raw material for cement has been discovered, Babu certainly cannot let it go. Among his fleet, there are seven large carriages loaded with limestone. The smell makes everyone except drivers stay away from them, even if

Drivers also cover their eyes and noses with gauze. As long as they can basically see, they will not let any extra piece of skin come into contact with the air full of limestone gas.

These seven loads of limestone are enough to build a pipeline several kilometers long. As long as the diameter of the pipeline is slightly reduced, it will be enough for the camp for the time being. As long as drainage pipes are installed in a few low-lying places, it will be enough and will not let the

The town was completely submerged. Xiao Lin was delighted and happily praised Babu for his carefulness. As a reward, the position of battalion commander of the first battalion of the second regiment of the newly formed Yanhuang Trading Company Guard Team was Babu's.

However, now Babu cannot stay in the town to lead the troops. The first battalion of the second regiment has only been filled up and has not started military training. Because the company has too much work to do, they have all been transferred.

Help them with some physical work. Just right, with enough meat, let them put their bodies to work

Practice better. Moreover, many of the things Babu brought back this time are very useful. Therefore, he will have to go there again in the near future. After Xiao Lin brings back a new batch of fake pounds from the 21st century, he will

We will continue to go to New York to purchase the same types of raw materials, and the quantities will increase.

Of course, before that, as an old mercenary who had been the mayor of the town, he had not been idle. Babu was transferred to the agricultural management team by Xiao Lin to help him supervise and manage the reclamation of farmland and the planting of crops. Finally, he was transferred from

With this matter out of the way, Xiao Lin can also start building a power plant in the town. Electricity can be said to be the most important foundation of modern society. Steam is still used in Europe today, and it has been fully developed.

If Xiao Lin uses steam power again, he will not be able to surpass them. Instead, he may be widened. Before, the town only had a dozen diesel generators, which were used to power some key places. For example, small machines that assemble bullets and grenades.

The workshop relies on these generators to work. For this reason, Xiao Lin has to carry at least five barrels of diesel every time he comes back from the 21st century. Xiao Lin is also tired of doing this kind of thing.

In order to get rid of the situation of dealing with diesel, he did not know how many connections he relied on before finally buying a set of high-power coal mine generators used in the 1980s from the government warehouse. The entire unit was divided into three parts, and Xiao Lin only

If one part can be transported, we will transport the first part this time. It only takes two months to transport the entire generating set. Although it is a technology from the 1980s, the power generation capacity is enough to support the current town.

In order to ensure that power can be generated once the last part is installed, Xiao Lin has already started the design of the town's power lines and the site selection and construction of the town's power plant. For the time being, Xiao Lin can only think of these things. These are also important for now

Some of the most critical things for a small town. If Zhang Yaling hadn't mentioned it in his spare time, he wouldn't have thought of caring about people's spare time lives.

Humans are not robots and cannot work all the time. Especially those white people who like to go to bars by nature. When they were in Europe or the American colonies, no matter how difficult life was, they all needed to come to the bar for a drink after a day's work.

They joked a little with the call girls. When they arrived in Yanhuang Trading Town, they had many things they had never thought of, but their spare time only consisted of buying a bottle of beer and a few cans from the grocery store.

Friends ate and drank together.

The key point is that Xiaozhen is still short of women. There is no shortage of Indian women. When they attacked those tribes before, these women were not harmed. However, there is an urgent shortage of white women. Among the people Tony brought here, generally

They were all singles without families. Most of the people Xiao Lin snatched from the town run by the Pandey family were singles.

These white men and Indians despise each other. There are many single men on one side and more single women on the other, but they are unwilling to marry each other. Xiao Lin is really worried that these strong white men will have problems if they hold back the women for a long time.

Xiao Lin knows a good way to solve the problem, and that is the inflatable doll industry that is very prosperous in modern society. Don’t think that Xiao Lin doesn’t know these things because he is a soldier. He has also seen the sale of these things on the Internet, and he clicked in to take a look out of curiosity.

Take a look. These things can also be used to add products to the grocery store.

Amidst the busyness, the town began to develop at an extremely fast speed. I believe that it will not be long before Xiao Lin's ambitions can be supported. However, what he doesn't know is that the town will soon face a new challenge. Yes

Xiao Linlin's decision will be the decisive factor in whether he can gain opportunities from challenges, enter a faster development track, or be beaten to a loss.

Because the Adams family has suffered losses at the hands of Xiao Lin several times, and the Pandey family has also suffered heavy losses. Regarding the existence of Xiao Lin and Tony's death, it is no longer possible to hide it from others. Not to mention other things, it is the British colony.

The person in charge, Charles Mill, began to ask what was going on because of the abnormal deployment and attrition of the army, as well as the demand and consumption of weapons.
