It is impossible to say that it is a Stone City without any wooden structures. In that case, it would not reflect the luxury and sophistication of the city. Therefore, the forest in the upper reaches of the river has become the source of wood for the city, and there are also local bricks and tiles. Clay, it's like the system has specially set up such a place to provide convenience for Mr. Su.

The newly selected location is very suitable for building a huge city.

The separatists also quickly reported the results of the site selection to Grand Duke Stan. Grand Duke Stan had no idea about this kind of thing. He felt that as long as the city was built, it didn't matter where it was.

If it can be built next to the river, you can even go boating and write lyrics when you have nothing to do. Think about it, it’s not a bad thing.

So I allocated another 50 million gold coins, which means you should start working on it. I want to see my city completed as soon as possible.

The first step of the construction of Stan City was completed, but the second step was more difficult.

Su Mo must recruit at least 20,000 young men to work as coolies for his city construction, which will last for at least half a month. Of course, it cannot be as troublesome in the game as in reality, otherwise even if there are modern machine tools, at least better ones are needed. It takes years to build a city out of thin air.

But the quantity of 20,000 cannot be discounted.

Unless Laifu uses the Monster Shop for customization, everything in Stan City will have to be done step by step.

In the quarry alone, there are thousands of people working here day and night to get rocks. Even though mountains can be blown up, the rocks that are blasted out must also be polished to a good standard.

The city walls and buildings needed stone, and the roads were all paved with stone slabs.

This is not something that can be solved in a short while, and it is likely to last until the construction of Stan City is completed.

After the stone is quarried, someone has to transport it.

For now, we can only use the most primitive method of transportation. After the stone is polished, it is pulled to the riverside dock and put on a raft. A few young and strong punting boats go down the river and are lifted up again at the dock here in Stan City. Come down.

The manpower required is a huge number. For example, a raft can hold up to 2 to 3 large rocks, but it requires 4 to 6 people to operate it. Plus loading and unloading, there are hundreds of people out there. .

"We waste money and people, are we too cruel?" Tian Dazhuang said helplessly.

Under the instruction of Grand Duke Sta, tens of thousands of young men were dragged out of their homes by the soldiers, and were marching into temporary camps in groups. The soldiers were punching and kicking, and whips were crackling. The strong laborers were also listless, as if they had no hope of returning from this Shura field.

The Free Federation was the freedom of the rich. The status of the poor became even more embarrassing as the estates planted cotton and other industrial cash crops, and processing factories sprang up everywhere.

The nobles had the right to servitude "by law" over the inhabitants of their territory.

Even if I have a job, you must do it for me for free. It's basically the same thing as a master and a slave.

The better nobles would provide their laborers with a full meal, and the worse ones would even require the laborers to bring their own tools and food for work, and the construction deadlines were very strict. A whip-wielding supervisor was the most basic configuration on site.

"Don't worry, we have money!" Mr. Su now completely considers himself to be a capable person.

When the recruitment of 20,000 civilians was completed, they were all herded into a small square, a mass of black heads surrounded by guards with bright weapons.

Su Mo walked slowly, surrounded by a group of people.

The peasants looked at him with hatred. It was spring, there was no harvest, and there was not enough food.

Everyone tried their best to forage in the mountains, forests and rivers, and some bolder ones even challenged ferocious beasts, so that their wives and children would not starve to death.

Now a conquest order brought them all together here.

At least during the period of labor, they can no longer fulfill the obligations of a husband or father. If it is worse, they may have to take up the insufficient rations of their wives and children.

"I am Lord Iron Horse!" Su Mo stood on the stage. This was not the first time he faced so many people, but he was still in a state of excitement. After all, there had never been so many people looking at him with hatred.

No one said anything below, and many people were complaining inwardly.

No matter what this sand sculpture noble wants to do, you still have to remember who he is. I have never heard of Lord Iron Horse, okay?

A fart Lord has the nerve to come out and embarrass himself.

"I know you are all unwilling. Why? I want to know why. Does anyone dare to stand up and tell you what is in your heart? Tell me why you are unwilling. Is there anyone?" Su Mo asked loudly. .

As a result, no one said a word, even the sound of breathing was as thin as a gossamer.

There was no sound, no one dared to say a word, just like lambs waiting for the verdict, numb and lifeless, they only dared to complain wildly in their hearts. If it were the bubble chat game from decades ago, everyone would have no words at this time. It is estimated that a lot of bubbles will appear.

"No one said yes, so I'll tell you." Mr. Su was very embarrassed. He thought someone would stand up.

No one paid attention to him. Everyone just wanted to go to work early and go home after work to see if their wife and children had died of hunger.

"What you are unwilling to do is that you have worked hard but got nothing in return. If I conscript you here, it will destroy your family's livelihood, right?" Su Mo shouted with a bit of hatred: "You guys Your life is almost gone and your job is almost gone, so why do you have to swallow your anger like this?"

Not only the people below, but also those sent by Grand Duke Stan were dumbfounded.

Does this guy even know what he's talking about?

Fortunately, Su Mo quickly changed the topic and continued: "I will not conscript you to work in vain, because you are the subjects of Grand Duke Stan, not my Lord Iron Horse. I conscripted you to build Stan City. Will Pay you a salary."

Everyone couldn't believe their ears.

Is there such a good thing?

"Based on work performance, each person will be given half a gold coin to one gold coin per day. They will work in groups and conduct collective assessments. The specific rules will be handled by my special envoy, Mr. Yunfei." Su Mo finally revealed his plan.

He probably said that these people were borrowing money, so that he would have a reason to distribute money.

Then we set the basic rules. As long as you work, you will get money, but you must do better to get more.

They all have a salary of at least five silver coins. If the construction period is half a month, there will be an income of seven or eight gold coins, which is equivalent to the income of these young men for a whole year or even three years.

It seemed like a lot, but in fact, Su Mo only paid a few hundred thousand gold coins.

Compared to his total construction cost of 200 million gold coins, this amount of money is simply not worth mentioning, but it makes the hard workers below unable to believe the news they heard.

How can you get money for hard labor?

One gold coin a day?

Is this respected nobleman joking? Does he plan to gather everyone together and kill everyone when the construction period is over, and then waste this huge sum of money?
