Chapter 1156: Wonders and Martial Artists
After a closer look inside and out, you will find that the arena is actually enclosed by a circle of two-story brick and stone buildings, and only the outer walls of the building can be seen from the outside, while the roof of the building inside is a slope, with seats and aisles on the slope, and a pergola greenhouse with bamboo and wood structure to protect from the wind and snow.
The arena is surrounded by walls facing inward, and the seats closest to the arena are about seven feet above the ground.
There are many kinds of seats, most of them are just stone slabs, if you want to come and sit, the martial arts arena will provide bamboo and wood seats and cotton cushions, etc., when the time comes, put in the position, this is the most ordinary, and there is also the kind of semi-enclosed private room, the real rich family even brought their inner servants over, you can be in that private room, not only separated from the surroundings, but also served and enjoyed inside.
In addition, the most conspicuous thing is that there is a stone platform in the north side of the martial arts arena that protrudes into the field, and the seats on the stone platform are obviously different from the regulations of other seats in the field, this is nothing difficult to guess, at a glance, you can know that it is the position where the VIP and the host are sitting, many people think of discussing in private but can't say it clearly, facing south and back to north, in this place, Zhao Jin is qualified to sit.
Below the seat is a small room, @在第二层尤其如此, the room on the first floor is relatively large, the martial artists who participate in the competition, and even the guests who come to watch the competition, can rest in these rooms and even do whatever they want to do in their leisure time or before entering the venue.
There are also legends that there are one or even two underground floors in this martial arts field, but outsiders can't visit, it's just speculation, in fact, there are more than this mysterious guess, everyone sees such a circular building, strolling in the large and small rooms inside, there will definitely be all kinds of reverie.
Although Zhao Ziying has shown its strength many times in Qingjiangpu, but the construction of this martial arts field still shocked many people, originally thought that it would take a few years or even ten years of the project, but it was actually completed in a few months, and it is such an excellent and complete building, this competition itself has already represented the incredibleness of Zhao Ziying, which shocked people with their strength and wealth.
People who really know how to understand civil engineering and architecture can see some things, for example, the masonry used in this competition place, the most important stone comes from the local accumulation of Qingjiangpu, when Xuzhou and Qingjiangpu built the river dam water conservancy, a large number of granite strips of stone were needed, at that time, the Cao ship transported goods from the south to the north, and the southern goods were carried to the north to make money, which could be transported back from Jingshi all the way south, but there were not so many goods worth transporting, and not every ship had the opportunity to carry and do business, so the bamboo material was transported to the north, and the granite was transported to the south. It has become the fixed ballast cargo of the ship.
The canal water conservancy needs to be renovated every year, and the demand for stone is there every year, but the more later, the more slack, in this process of slowing down, the stone and granite stone accumulate more and more in Qingjiangpu, and the locals can't use it to repair and build houses, and the low price of this thing is thrown aside.
Fu Chen used all the stones accumulated in Qingjiangpu to lay the foundation, build the exterior wall, and even used it in the structure of the grandstand and house in the martial arts field.
The construction of this competition field requires a large number of red bricks and blue bricks, and there is no suitable place to burn bricks near Qingjiangpu, this is also simple, directly build a brick kiln in the nearby states and counties, and then use a boat to transport it, if there is no water conservancy only by the carriage and horse, the cost is really amazing, and the efficiency will be extremely low.
The canal ships are not only red bricks, but also from the sea of big wood, these timber from Liaodong near the clam port into the canal, against the current to reach the near of the competition field, although it is troublesome to go upstream, but compared to land transportation is too convenient, there are more rumors that in the construction of the competition field used a lot of wrought iron smelted in Xuzhou iron field, although this year, the price of wrought iron has been slightly falling unnoticed, may use wrought iron as building materials, this Xuzhou is really luxurious.
In addition to the convenience of materials, the abundance of manpower has shocked countless people, the labor used in such a large project must be tens of thousands, Qingjiangpu and the surrounding areas are considered to be rich places, the people have their own livelihoods, how can there be so many manpower, but this competition field was built, there were boats of young men and women to come, living and working around the construction site, boats of food and materials were transported to maintain their livelihoods, which is equivalent to a new town in about a month, what does this kind of mobilization and organization represent, it is really thought-provoking. At that time, there were even rumors that Zhao Jin was going to build a new city on the edge of Qingjiangpu, and this martial arts field was just a pretense.
The materials are enough, the manpower is enough, and it is also restrained by military law, no one dares to slack off and be lazy, and the efficiency of construction is naturally extremely high, when the foundation is laid and the masonry is started, it can be said that it is a day a look, at that time, there are a large number of idlers around this side every day, and such a construction speed is too rare.
Tens of thousands of people are busy, the teams are busy with different things, but there is no chaos, everywhere is orderly, and then combined to become the efficiency of the construction of the martial arts field, which is also related to the storage of the Xuzhou Iron Yard Weaving Workshop Winery, in these large workshops, the foremen and stewards know how to manage, how to coordinate and cooperate, how to organize, although it is relatively shallow, but it is already a great progress, many of these foremen have been transferred to be supervisors, greatly improving efficiency.
After it is completed, there will be more people who come to see, such a martial arts field is actually a castle and a fortress, which can garrison soldiers, can defend the siege, with him on the edge of Qingjiangpu, Qingjiangpu will not dare to have any disobedience to Zhao Jin, but no one pays attention to this speculation, this third brigade and Qingjiangpu patrol regiment are enough to deter, there is no need to add snakes
And Zhao Ziying's disposal of this martial arts field is not like to be used for killing, for example, after the completion, while letting people come here to visit, while building shops around the martial arts arena for rent, and also held a trade fair of iron and cotton cloth in the martial arts field, guests from all walks of life have come, everyone only realized at this time that Zhao Ziying's intention may be to make this a new Qingjiang city, which makes everyone interested.
Many of the laborers who came to build the martial arts field in the early stage have stayed, maintained the martial arts field, and worked in the shops and various industries around it, many of whom have Liaodi accents, and everyone said that in this matter, Li Ziyou, the owner of the Chengbei, contributed a lot, and he was taking care of the villagers.
Nowadays, the foreign merchants who have come to Qingjiangpu several times come here again, occasionally hear the name of "Jubao Town", which means that the martial arts field and the surrounding area, now the gentry and people of Qingjiangpu, there are foreign guests at home, always like to lead the martial arts field to walk around here, the guests look at the admiration and amazement, their own family also feels that there is light on their faces, and they feel that this is the brilliance of Qingjiangpu.
No one thought that Zhao Ziying would maintain the martial arts arena so much, when it was first built, everyone could get close to the outside to see that they were already satisfied, and they didn't think that they would let everyone go in to visit, originally thought that this martial arts field was also strictly forbidden to outsiders like the official mansion and even the palace barracks, and the businessmen of Qingjiang and Pujiang pondered this arrangement, and each realized some truth, how to make a fortune, how to create a wealthy environment, can see a lot in the causes and consequences of this martial arts field.
After entering the wax moon, firstly, the weather is getting colder, and the people of Qingjiangpu are too lazy to go out, and secondly, the martial arts competition here is about to be held, and the martial arts field begins to close, and this side begins to become deserted.
In order to gain fame and seek wealth, in order to support the family, and to be competitive, all kinds of people who can be invited to participate in the competition, etc., can have the confidence to participate in the competition, all of them want to win, and want their own victory to be known by more people, they have seen this martial arts field, each is more interested, the reason is very simple, here the competition, can let more people see their heroic posture, can make their victory spread more widely.
With the arrival of the martial arts and guests from all walks of life, Qingjiangpu, which began to be deserted as soon as the trade of New Year's goods was over, continued to maintain a lively and prosperous situation, according to the saying of many old local residents, "this is a month earlier for the New Year", those rich and idle people came to naturally scatter silver, with the experience of receiving them last year, from the inn to the teahouse below, the local businessmen in Qingjiangpu know how to receive, and send the steward and the guy to guide everywhere early, and it is convenient for each other.
But this excitement also has consequences, not in the Zhao Ziying and the government system of the martial arts, the market is not so calm, although when the store is settled, the shopkeeper will kindly warn and remind, saying that everyone wants to compete in the competition to sign up, if there is really any personal grievances to solve, it is best to go to Qingjiang Puchengchi five miles away, do not fight on the street, otherwise the patrol here is not vegetarian.
Experienced warriors understand this truth, and it is easy to attract danger for themselves in order to fight for the sake of a moment
