Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid
Chapter 8: Construction in full swing
Two days later, Norgefogg came to Li De's territory with a construction team of fifty people.
When he first arrived here, Nogfogg couldn't believe his eyes.
When he came to Tanaris from Kezan, he landed here. Although he has mainly developed the Shining Plains and managed Gadgetzan in recent years.
But he never forgets the coast. In recent years, he has come here every few months to inspect and plan how to build the port in the future.
It can be said that he is familiar with every inch of the land here, but it has only been more than a week, and the place has changed a lot.
From the northern edge of the desert, the settlements on the beach have expanded to three kilometers long and one kilometer wide. The main body in the territory can be divided into three areas:
The largest area by the sea includes coconut gardens and fishing grounds. The second largest area in the middle is the people's living area, which consists of tents, where more than 200 families and more than 300 single men and women live.
The last remaining area is a work area consisting of rope workshops, armor workshops, leather workshops, etc. At the same time, guard posts are distributed on the outer and inner sides of the territory to protect the security of the territory at all times.
'There is clearly a prototype of a city here! ’
Nogfogg said in amazement in his heart, he couldn't believe it, what means did Li De have to make a group of lingering and lost people come together to build such an amazing achievement together?
However, after asking such a question, Nogfogg had the answer right away, which was the towering Great Pyramid outside the territory!
'Yeah, although that guy always looks approachable, how can someone who can do such a miracle be a mortal? ’
Nogfogg thought so, but soon he forced himself not to think about it. Next, he and Li De have to negotiate cooperation. If he is in awe of that guy, he will suffer a big loss in the negotiation.
'Calm down, Marin! The opposite is a god, and it is not an excuse for you to sell gold coins! ’
Marin Nogfogg took his breath away and started negotiating with Li De. Also participating in the negotiation are Haggard, Bigowitz, Van Cleef and other people and goblins.
The specific process does not need to be repeated, but the final result is that both parties are relatively satisfied.
The general content is to jointly build a canal, build a port, expand Gadgetzan to triple its current size, and upgrade the Flash Plains Circuit.
Among them, Li De insists on two points:
One is that the canal needs to be jointly managed by both parties, and an independent "Gadgetzan Water Industry Committee" should be formed. Neither Li De nor Norgefogg can be part of the committee;
The other is that after the construction of the port is completed, the ownership right is completely owned by the human territory, and Gadgetzan only has the right to use it.
When he first raised these two points, Nogfogg firmly disagreed. The management of the canal was okay, but he could accept it.
But the raw materials for the construction of the port were completely provided by him, and in the end he only had the right to use it?
Because of this incident, the negotiations between the two sides tended to collapse for a while. In the end, Li De made a "significant concession".
Li De "reluctantly" decided that after the completion of the project, the human territory can completely not participate in the profit of the Fenren Flash Plains Circuit!
This concession was too big. Haggard and Van Cleef were shocked at the time. If they hadn't believed in Li De, they even suspected that Li De was enchanted by Nogforge.
However, Nogfogg was really tempted. If this plan can be successfully completed, the shining plain in the future will be a "glowing golden plain".
With such a big business, you don't have to pay Li De a cent of the money you earn. The temptation is so great that Nogfogg doesn't understand. A port is so good? Can you not even want that much money for a piece of land?
As a goblin, Nogfogg is incomprehensible after all. In Li De's concept, sovereign territory cannot be exchanged for any amount of money.
Only with absolutely autonomous land can we have absolute security.
As for the profits of the Shining Plains Circuit, he really doesn't care.
In fact, in all fairness, Li De knew that this business would definitely make a lot of money in the future, but it was precisely because of this that he didn't want to let the people in the domain get involved with the goblin business.
The money earned by opening casinos must be fast, but such a method can corrupt people's hearts equally fast. Li De's wish is to build a great civilization. How can he overdraw the life of the territory now?
After the issues of canal management and port ownership were finalized, Li De did not insist on the expanded Gadgetzan New City. The result of the negotiation was to leave 20% of the human race to live and operate.
After the cooperation agreement was settled, the entire land in the northeastern part of the Tanaris Desert began to get busy.
The first project to start is the canal. Whether it is the construction of the port or the expansion of Gadgetzan, the water consumption will be quite large, so only after the canal is built, the two places can start large-scale construction.
As the construction of the canal started, Li De also began to get busy, and there were many tasks that required his attention every day.
In addition to the craftsmen, another 200 strong laborers were mobilized in the territory to participate in the construction of the canal, and 100 people were also mobilized from Gadgetzan.
To support the heavy manual labor, logistics materials must be supplied. The fishing grounds have become the main force. Anderson also completely changed his career from captain to head of fish, leading the fishermen to work at sea all day long.
Li De is mainly responsible for security work. In two months, he has traveled all over the desert in the northeastern part of Tanaris. In order to save it once and for all, he even took the elite team to the deep sand plain in the middle of the desert!
Of course, there are a few places in Tanaris that he still dare not go to, such as the worm nest in the depths of the desert, where there are so many worms that even a hero like him cannot escape completely.
There is also the cave of time by the sea in the middle of the desert, where the bronze dragon's lair is. Li De didn't know how the Bronze Dragon would view himself as an "abnormal". At present, he did not have the courage to face the Bronze Dragon Legion.
In addition to the Tanaris Desert, there are also excavations in the Shining Plains that are not very peaceful, and there are also the existence of Xenomorph scorpions!
It took Li De a lot of effort to get rid of the bugs temporarily. At the same time, this also seems to confirm a rumor that after the defeat of the Insect Empire in ancient times, it did not give up the counterattack, but dug up a huge "underground empire" underground.
But in the end, no matter what, although there were difficulties of one kind or another during the construction process, after three months, the two canals were finally completed!
When the clear spring flows from the canal to the seaside and Gadgetzan, both humans and goblins shed tears of excitement! For them, it is no exaggeration to say that it is the water of life!
When the canal was completed, Li De was the happiest, because he also gained additional productivity points.
"Ding~, congratulations to the leader for completing the construction task: major project canal! Reward 500 productivity points. The canals in the area provide the leader with 50 productivity points every day."
After the construction of the most important canal, there is no need to worry about water, and the rest of the project will be much easier.
Of course, in order to prevent precious water from being wasted, the "Gadgetzan Water Commission" was established on the spot on the day the canal opened.
This is an organization independent of the port and Gadgetzan, in which neither Reed nor Norgefogg are present. The most powerful of course is the chief engineer of the canal: Van Cleef and Bigowitz.
They strictly control the daily water consumption and water quality. UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com not only ensures that the precious water will not be wasted, but also ensures the water safety of the residents of the two places.
It can be said that the only problem that can hinder the progress of the project is the transportation problem.
When building the canal, everyone relied on a belief, relying on people to pull trolleys to transport stones, and a small amount of goblin construction machinery to help, and built two canals in three months.
But now the stone materials needed to build the city and the port are the same as the stone materials used to build the canal?
It’s better to say that Gadgetzan is next to the Glittering Plain, and now we can start to expand Gadgetzan. But there will always be a day when the new city will be built. What will the port do then? That massive amount of stone has to be piled manually? !
Regarding transportation, it is not just Li De who is anxious, but Norgefogg is also anxious.
Although he only has the right to use the port after the completion of the port, the earlier the port is built, the earlier his business will be able to open.
In fact, in the past few months, Li De has been trying to domesticate the monitor lizards in the desert.
After consulting other goblin scholars, Li De came to know the name of this six-legged monitor lizard: Crystal Scale Lizard. And he also knew that he wasn't the first to try to domesticate these lizards. He knew even more that the people who had tried to domesticate these lizards had all failed in the end without exception.
After several failures, Li De was also a little disheartened. It wasn't because he didn't work hard. The last time he even caused a soldier to be bitten, and his life was almost in danger.
Helpless, in the end Li De could only admit that the domestication of the crystal-scale lizard failed.
But just the day after Li De gave up on domesticating the crystal-scale lizards, a big event happened. Two thousand trolls came to his territory!
