Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 557 Baiyi Track
The gravy, like honey oil, slowly seeps out with gentle squeezing, emitting a wisp of steaming hot air.
Arina took the semen into her mouth and couldn't help but moan.
The braised pork at Hewan is so delicious!
Under Leo's guidance, the ogre cook Am has mastered many cooking skills from other worlds, and cooking is no longer limited to stewing, frying or roasting.
Before coming to Hewan, Arina Mishe had no idea that there were such rich delicacies in the world.
Yue Gechaer, who was standing by, looked at the bruises on her sister's face and was very angry. "Sister, who beat you up like this? I want to avenge you!"
Arina gave him a fierce look and said, "Eat your meal!"
Opposite the two of them was Leo, who also had a bruised face, and Olivia, who looked confused.
Not only is she proficient in holy light spells, she also has a solid foundation in medicine and has a special understanding of Leo's body.
Being able to beat Leo so hard that his skin was bruised and the swelling took a long time to go down, this was no ordinary fight.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
Arina replied with a guilty conscience: "I have no rivals in the West Territory. Coming to the river bay, I couldn't help but feel itchy, so I had a sparring match with Leo."
Olivia was about to nod when Six asked innocently, "Don't you adults wear clothes when you spar?"
Arina Mishe lowered her head and said, "I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to bring a change of clothes. I was afraid that my clothes would be torn, so I simply didn't wear them."
As soon as she said this, the other diners at the table who had not witnessed the fierce battle during the day all raised their heads and looked over in surprise.
Arina was socially depressed again and began to suspect that Leo had made her brain stupid.
How could a wolf girl from the West, who used to be eloquent and fluent in answering questions, come up with such an outrageous excuse?
Olivia looked at Leo who was eating voraciously beside her, and then looked at the wolf girl from the West who suddenly became quiet opposite her. She suddenly understood something and stopped talking.
After staying in the river bend for a few more days and waiting for the snow to stop, Arina Mishe said goodbye and left with her brother.
Olivia, as the mistress of River Bay, rewarded her with a carriage of clothes.
Arina Mishe was very happy. After ten days or so of persistent pestering and persuasion, she finally got some results.
Although Leo did not agree to sell the gun, he agreed to provide her with some ammunition.
The production capacity of the musket workshop in Hewan is not high and can only meet its own needs, but the production capacity of the gunpowder workshop is very large.
It is also expected that Hewan will not launch any war against other countries for some time to come.
After meeting daily production and necessary reserves, Hewan's excess gunpowder production capacity can also be sold to Arina Mishe for huge profits.
After all, the price that Arina Mishe offered to get Leo to agree to the deal was too high.
As for how high her asking price was, it could be described this way: Hewan used his own ammunition to equip his own army, and the profit he would get from winning a battle would be more than what he would get from selling the ammunition to Arina Mishegao.
If the production capacity of muskets was not insufficient, Leo would have wanted to sell them to her.
Riding on the World Tree Avenue leading to Buck Fortress, Yue Gechar looked at the high-spirited Arina Mishe and couldn't help feeling inferior.
For the prosperity of the family, her elder sister would rather sell her body in exchange for weapons and ammunition, but what about herself?
During this period, I was not able to help at all. I only learned a little bit of mineral exploration technology, glass blowing technology, gunpowder granulation technology, carbon, nitrate and sulfur purification technology, and centurion cannon casting technology from my kobold friend...
Yue Gechaer, who was uneducated, was too embarrassed to mention it to his own sister.
Along the road from Riverbend Town to Buck's Fort, teams of Riverbend engineering teams and young and strong servicemen were hard at work digging on the ground, building roadbeds, and laying cartloads of gravel on top.
On the World Tree Avenue, there are also carriages loaded with timber, which unload the processed planks and strips and pile them on the roadside.
Arina Mishe couldn't help but find a Hewan foreman and asked, "What are you doing? Isn't the wide World Tree Avenue enough? Do you want to build a new one next to it?"
Since this was not a secret, Hewan foreman did not hide it, "We are repairing the track."
"Orbit?" Arina Mishe was a little confused.
The foreman likes to popularize the new technology of Hewan to the villagers. "Have you seen the rail car in the mine? The Lord's Mansion is paying for the construction of a track between Isenpol and Buck Fortress."
As he said this, he pointed to a place not far away where track laying had already begun.
The compacted ground is covered with gravel, then thick wooden boards are placed as sleepers, and two hardwood tracks are nailed on top of the sleepers.
This was part of Leo Winter's plan. Taking advantage of the idle manpower in the River Bay Territory and the United Knights Territory, he mobilized tens of thousands of young and strong men to build a 260-mile Baiyi track.
The only difference from the railway is that the iron rails are temporarily replaced by wooden rails.
With Hewan's current steel production capacity, it is not cost-effective to use it to build railways, but the fuel stones from the Talhan tribe in the western border have been delivered to Bak Fortress one after another, and transportation has become a big problem.
Three thousand trucks of Rongshi are just the first batch of orders, and there will definitely be more than ten thousand orders in the future.
The demand for railways already exists, but the cost of railways has not yet gone down.
Leo simply built a wooden track first, and then replaced it with an iron track when the steel production capacity increased.
It not only meets the transportation needs, but also trains the track laying team in advance.
Although wooden tracks are not as durable as iron tracks and cannot support the speed of steel trains, they are still sufficient to support three to five years of transportation using light rail trucks in the early stages.
In addition to the rails, wooden tracks that meet the same indicators as railways are still very expensive.
Whether it is massive amounts of gravel, roughly processed sleepers, finely processed wooden rails, or large quantities of iron rivets and bolts, they are all expensive materials in border areas.
Isenpol is backed by the wolf-driving forest. The cheapest wood is the unprocessed logs, but the processed high-quality wood is still very expensive.
The more Arina Mishe looked, the more shocked she was. It was more than 200 miles from Isenpol to Buck Fortress. Building a stone road would exhaust the manpower and resources of an entire city, and they had to lay tracks on it?
She quickly dismounted, got into the carriage, and began to write a letter to Leo.
She wanted to inquire about the cost of laying the track and the cost of hiring the Riverbend Engineering Corps to see if she had enough strength to lay a wooden track between the Firestone Mine and Buck Fortress.
She learns everything that is available in the river bend!
As soon as they arrived at Buck Fortress and before leaving the territory of Hewan, Arina's letter was handed over to the civil affairs officer of Buck Fortress and sent to the lord's mansion through official channels.
When they returned to the main city of the Tarhan tribe, the brother and sister, who had become dog-like in their speech, recounted the journey in detail to their father, Shilatu Tarhanbek.
Slatu Talhan was a shrewd old wolf. As he listened to his daughter's description, he raised questions at first, but later became more and more silent.
Finally, after a long while, he exhaled and said, "No matter what, Rio Mondo is our ally now, so there is no need to worry for the time being. You should quickly organize the Musketeer Cavalry Regiment and eat up the Moon Tribe in one go next year. By then, we will have more people and more power, so there is no need to be too afraid of him."
The Yuezhong tribe, like the Talhan tribe, is one of the four tribes on the grassland and is also a powerful force with over ten thousand cavalry.
Talhanbek was actually confident that he could defeat the Yuezhong Tribe, with whom he had been evenly matched for decades, next year. Apparently, he was also very optimistic about Arina Mishe's Musketeer Regiment.
Arina Mishe hesitated to speak, and finally just nodded, "Yes, father."
