If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?

Roman has only one attitude towards development.

Speed ​​up!

Speed ​​up as much as possible!

Speed ​​is the only god!

Productivity is above all else!

Since Roman became the lord, he has tried every means to speed up the construction.

Of course, with the backward thinking of the peasants in the Middle Ages, it is impossible to understand this advanced concept. They only feel that Master Roman is a life-threatening ghost.

He is urging during the busy farming season and the slack farming season. He can't even take a break for two days.

The construction tasks assigned to this settlement must be completed within the specified period.

If they are not completed, the entire settlement will be punished.

Little guy, I can't exploit you when you have nothing, so I'll give you a house first, and see if you will fight for your house.

This time, his weakness was severely grasped.

Of course, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below. They can't be completed too early or too late, but just right.

Today Roman inspected the construction of a road.

It runs north along the mountain, parallel to the Silver Dragon Canyon. If it is built for 70 kilometers, it will reach King's Crossing. This is the road that Roman took when he first sent troops. The terrain is undulating, but it can barely accommodate the convoy. It is just that the development is low and the land is barren.

The road infrastructure of Fengrao City is basically completed. Now Roman is going to build a road to the north, but not to King's Crossing.

…

The materials of Origin City must be transported to Fengrao City, either through King's Crossing downstream or through the upstream bridgehead.

This is extremely time-consuming and laborious.

According to Roman's survey this year, it was found that the thickest part of the mountain range is about hundreds of meters, while the thinnest part is only 30 to 50 meters thick.

Roman imagined that the Origin Basin was once surrounded by mountains, forming a solid basin - the thickness of this basin is amazing.

In a geological movement many years ago, the mountains split and tore out the Silver Dragon Canyon.

Inside the Silver Dragon Canyon is Roman's Origin Basin, and outside is the wilderness of Count Kant.

The Origin Basin is isolated from the world. It is blocked by high mountains and is closed, making transportation inconvenient.

…

Since the mountains are blocking it, then we should dig through the mountains!

…

This is the plan made by Roman.

In order to ensure administrative efficiency and improve transportation.

In any case, we must connect Origin City with Fengrao City!

The weak point of the mountain is located more than ten kilometers north of Fengrao City.

Roman rode over and found that the road quality was good, with black gunpowder, and the output of the quarry increased greatly. The rocks mined were laid flat on the road surface, solid and flat, winding and undulating, stretching northward.

It was noon when he came to the end of the road.

There were five temporary canteens, and about four thousand road paving laborers were queuing up for food, eating very deliciously.

The lunch dishes were a spoonful of minced meat sauce, stewed tofu, boiled broad beans, and fried cabbage. The staple food was half a pound of whole wheat bread, and finally a bowl of pork bone soup. If they are lucky, they can scoop up the marrow and oil floating in the soup bucket, and the remaining tendons on the bones. Those lucky workers will squint their eyes, pick up the tip of their tongues, and savor this rare happiness carefully.

This is the biggest motivation for their daily service.

In turbulent times, the lower-class farmers usually fantasize about the situation of extremely abundant food.

At the same time, they also have a sense of fear and imminent danger.

This is hidden deep in people's hearts and is a common sense of insecurity in life.

When facing famine, many people will pray to the gods for heaven to come, and people living in heaven can enjoy feasts, eat well, wear warm clothes, and live and work in peace.

The current situation of the City of Plenty basically meets the most basic fantasy.

The captain of the construction team is the supervisor here, named Ole, with a dark face, strong muscles, and a thick layer of calluses on his palms. He is also an apostle of Roman.

Roman trusts his ability very much and assigns all members of the construction team to him, and he only wants results.

Ole ran over immediately when he saw Roman. He exhaled a lot of white air. He was wearing a wool sweater inside and a black leather jacket bought from a department store outside.

He didn't do manual labor, but he supervised the construction site all year round, so his clothes were inevitably dirty and messy, with mottled gray stains.

Ole said, "Your Highness, the task you assigned to us is completed."

He handed over the flag that the King of the Valley had planted here in the fall. The latter liked to use flag planting to plan construction. Whenever a task was completed, Roman would come in person to retrieve the flag. If the flag was not retrieved when the date arrived, it meant that someone was unlucky.

This task was originally completed a month ago, but the Valley Army went to the king's defense and took away a lot of animal power, so the construction progress had to be postponed. Now it has just been returned to its original owner.

Roman picked up the half-meter-long flag and stuffed it into the saddle.

"Very good!" He nodded gently, and then pointed to the weak mountain, which was more than 300 meters away from here, separated by a patch of wild woods.

He said, "Do you see that mountain?"

"Yes." Ole was paid for his work, and his daily salary was calculated in copper coins. This year alone, he had received three or five gold coins, and his income was getting higher and higher, so he never asked Roman's intentions, and was only responsible for doing things.

Roman gestured to him and said, "Go and dig through this mountain in front of you."

Ole was used to Roman's various behaviors, but he was still shocked by this incident.

"Ah? Me?"

"Yes!"

He exclaimed, "We are not enough."

"I will send you more people."

Ole said the main difficulty is, "It is still unknown when it will be completed."

"There is no time limit this time. It must be completed as soon as possible. I will pay attention to this matter from time to time." Roman patted him on the shoulder, "But you know what to do, right?"

"I know. First cut down the trees and dig out the soil, then burn the rocks with fire and water, and finally use hammers and drills to carve them out."

Roman was very satisfied with his answer. The sapphires consumed for Ole were not in vain.

Isn’t it just Yu Gong moving mountains?

He sent 10,000 foolish men to take turns carrying earth and rocks, and using the principle of thermal expansion and contraction to crack the rocks, he did not believe that he could not dig a pass more than ten meters wide.

Get it next year!

"What are you doing carving a mountain for?" Tashina said at this time. She found it unbelievable that there was nothing to argue with a mountain.

Roman glanced at her and said to Ole: "This is the royal princess, Her Royal Highness Iotashina." The construction captain was surprised again and quickly saluted: "I have met Her Royal Highness."

Then Roman explained to Princess Baigang the geographical factor that currently limits him the most.

She had only been here two days and didn't know much about it.

A shipment of supplies from Origin City to Fenghuo City requires at least hundreds of labor units.

But with this pass, 70% of the transportation capacity can be saved.

Tahina thoughtfully said: "In this way, if there is a war, your Origin City can quickly support Fengcheng City."

This is a great strategic advantage.

The Origin Basin is extremely closed. It is impossible to fight from the outside, and it is also difficult for people inside to fight out. It is too laborious to go back and forth.

But with this pass, Origin City has taken the initiative from now on.

You can advance to attack, retreat to defend, it's wonderful.

But having said that, Tashina feels like she's been shaken for the entire year.

There is something wrong with your brain. Who in the right mind would think of fighting nature?

And the courage is so great that such a large project was launched as soon as it was announced.
