Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"Whoosh, whoosh!!!" Mina was also having fun.

"How? With this military crossbow, even those who don't know how to use a bow can shoot people after more than ten days of training?" Liu Feng laughed.

"No problem, this is relatively simple, as long as you exercise your arm strength." Niu Ben excitedly said.

"That's fine, I'll leave these to you. I need at least fifty archers, and you can play the rest yourself."

Liu Feng has fifty archers. In this era of backward combat power, he is basically invincible. Of course, the number of opponents cannot exceed him by many times.

There are also heavy cavalry, heavy infantry, etc. These are still in the imagination. When he increases the steel output, Liu Feng will really be invincible.

Thinking of steel, Liu Feng became excited. He never expected that there were iron mines and coal mines not far from Xiyang City.

However, the ironmaking technology of this era was backward, and the annual iron production was outrageously small.

After Liu Feng came up with the method of frying steel, those iron-making craftsmen almost fainted from excitement. Of course, now they are obediently making steel for Liu Feng.

The production of steel, under Liu Feng's request, has opened several furnaces in a row, and the production is increasing day by day.

The discovery of coal made Liu Feng a little dumbfounded. People in this era don't know that coal can be burned, and they use wood, mostly charcoal.

Speaking of the discovery of coal, Liu Feng was also lucky. He saw a few brats playing with coal on the avenue. Looking at the black coal from a distance, he thought it was a gem at first. Only then did I know it was coal.

After some questioning, I learned that there is an open-air natural coal mine more than ten kilometers away from Xiyang City.

With coal, it is not difficult to make iron. Liu Feng still has several plans to use coal. Sometimes, energy represents civilization.

"Let's go! Let's go and see if those craftsmen have gotten what I want." Liu Feng took Mina out of the warehouse, leaving Niu Ben to arrange everything.

The two of them left the barracks and headed towards the back hill of the castle, where there were several hidden workshops, no, in terms of the earth, they were laboratories.

Except for the military camp, those few workshops are the ones where Liu Feng invested the most gold coins. Maybe in the future, the investment will increase more and more, because this is the alien version of the research institute; of course, it is very simple now, with only a few A wooden house with few people.

When Liu Feng came here, he saw several people holding stones and yelling, while Niu Wu was blocking them with a long sword.

"Get out of the way, I'm going to tell the Lord City Master that we succeeded, really succeeded..."

Niu Wu was unmoved, and said in a cold voice, "If there is anything, you just need to tell me, and I will pass it on for you. Without Mr. Liu Feng's warrant, none of you can leave."

Chapter 0026 We just want to be your servant.

"Master, I'm going to ask what's going on."

Mina took out her saber and stepped forward briskly. She would not allow any existence that would endanger the young master; after a while, she beckoned Liu Feng to come forward.

"What's going on?" Liu Feng frowned and asked, looking at the chaotic crowd, his face was a little ugly.

"Master, they must go to see you." Niu Wu said respectfully from the side.

He was not afraid at all, it was Liu Feng who gave him the power to keep watch over this valley, no one could go in or out, unless there was a warrant, this is a top secret valley.

"Lord Liu Feng, we have succeeded. We have successfully refined some techniques of turning mud into stone." An old man took the lead, and it was he who was holding a stone.

Liu Feng knew him. He was a relatively outstanding mason in Xiyang City. He was called Carpenter Lu, and he was recruited by him to refine something.

"Oh? Really succeeded?" Liu Feng's eyes lit up, and he asked quickly, "Where is it, take me to see it quickly."

"Lord Liu Feng, here!" Carpenter Lu hurriedly put down the stone in his hand, and said excitedly, "My lord, we didn't eat your rice and meat for nothing."

These words made Liu Feng understand why Carpenter Lu and the others were so excited and wanted to see him in a hurry.

Carpenter Lu and the others felt like they were in heaven in the past few days. They were given big steamed buns and big pieces of meat every day. It was much better than the days when they were hungry and full.

They were afraid that the things Mr. Liu Feng told them would not be cooked, disappoint the aristocrats, and drive them away. Then they would not be able to eat big steamed buns and big pieces of meat.

After these days of anxiety, Carpenter Lu and the others finally made something called cement. They also followed the method Master Liu Feng said before, using cement to try to put two stones together.

I just stared at the two stones all night stupidly, and when I moved the two stones after dawn, I found that they really merged into one. Carpenter Lu and the others were so happy that they went crazy, hugging the stones and wanted to find Liu Feng.

Liu Feng squatted down, carefully looked at the cemented stone, touched it with his hands, and said to Niu Wu, "Niu Wu, break it open."

"yes!"

Niu Wu hugged the stone, and smashed it against a big rock not far away. He smashed it several times in a row before separating the two stones, one of which was still stuck to cement.

"Passed!" Liu Feng said with a satisfied smile. Although what was fired was clay cement, it was also an epoch-making product. For infrastructure madmen, cement is one of the necessary items.

Carpenter Lu and the others were all smiley and teary. They did not disappoint Mr. Liu Feng, they kept the big white steamed bun and the big piece of meat.

"Very good, what rewards do you want? You can tell them all." Liu Feng said generously.

Lu Jiangtou and the others looked at each other and smiled cautiously. It seems that they have already discussed it before.

"The reward we want is to serve you as a servant." Carpenter Lu and the others shouted in unison.

"You are presumptuous!" Niu Wu scolded coldly.

In his opinion, there are too many people who want to be the young master's domestic servants. It's a bit too much for a few craftsmen to want to be the young master's domestic servants. Now, no one in Xiyang City knows that being the young master's domestic servants is the best job , no worries about food and clothing.

Carpenter Lu and the others quickly knelt down. They knew that this request was a little too much. After all, if they became domestic servants, then Liu Feng would take care of them. Of course, their lives belonged to Liu Feng.

Liu Feng smiled helplessly, these people are too simple, as long as they feed each other, they can give their lives to him.

"Okay, I agree, you just need to work hard, steamed buns, big pieces of meat, you can eat whatever you want."

In fact, since Carpenter Lu entered this valley, they have been no different from Liu Feng's servants, and now they are just becoming regulars. After all, cement is a top-secret item of his.

"Yes, we will work hard." Carpenter Lu and the others shouted respectfully.

"Very good, let's expand the output of cement. I will need a lot of cement in three days." Liu Feng said in a condensed voice, "Also, protection must be done well, and no one is allowed to take off the mask."

"yes!"

"Go down."

Liu Feng waved them down. Today is a day of joy. With the appearance of cement, he will start to renovate Xiyang City.

"Let's go to see another thing." Liu Feng smiled and walked to another yard.

When the two came to another yard, they saw many shelves with pieces of things drying on them.

"Lord Liu Feng is here." A sharp-eyed person spotted Liu Feng and shouted hastily.

Immediately, seven or eight people ran over and saluted Liu Feng respectfully.

"How's it going? Has there been any results?" Liu Feng looked at the thing basking in the sun.

"My lord, the first batch has come out and is being cut into shape." Someone said respectfully.
