Chapter 254, Construction

Both the Forbidden City and the Afang Palace belonged to the emperor's harem.

And what is the harem for?

It is nothing more than the place where the emperor and his concubines live their daily lives.

Originally, if it weren't for the faint king, it would be enough to have one palace in one place, but in the game, the attributes of the two palaces are different, so even if it is a desperate effort to work hard and lose money, Ning Yuan must build them all.

Because of its long history, Afang Palace was burned by Xiang Yu, so no one has seen its true face.

However, the Forbidden City is located in the capital of China, and it and the Great Wall of China have been completely preserved, and they are two must-visit places when traveling to the capital, so most Chinese people are no strangers to the Forbidden City.

Although the Forbidden City is the emperor's harem, it is also a place for the emperor and his ministers to discuss matters.

The Forbidden City is divided into two parts: the Outer Court and the Inner Court.

The center of the outer dynasty is the Taihe Palace, the Zhonghe Palace, and the Baohe Palace, collectively referred to as the three major halls, which are the places where the state holds great ceremonies.

The center of the inner court is the Qianqing Palace, the Jiaotai Palace, and the Kunning Palace, collectively known as the Hou Three Palaces, which are the main palaces where the emperor and empress live.

And Afang Palace is a pure harem from its attributes.

Therefore, Ning Yuan decided that after the construction of the Forbidden City and the Afang Palace was completed, the Forbidden City would be the place where he and his ministers would discuss and hold some ceremonies, and some important state institutions would be headquartered in the Forbidden City in the future.

As for his concubines, they all lived in the Afang Palace, so that the two palaces could perform their own duties and would not cause overlapping functions and waste resources.

Because one of the Forbidden City and Afang Palace is the place where the ministers work, and the other is where Ning Yuan's family lives, they must be built in the Condor City.

And because the Temple of Artemis is only a temple, as long as it is placed there after it is completed, as long as it is not maliciously damaged, it can always play a role, so Ning Yuan plans to build it on a high ground outside the city.

Artemis is the goddess in charge of the moon and hunting in Greek mythology, and she has nothing to do with those gods in Huaxia, so Ning Yuan doesn't need to help her do any publicity at all, and after the temple is completed, she can be directly sent to the cold palace.

The elves believe in the goddess of nature, and Ning Yuan had planned to package Artemis as the goddess of nature before, but he was a little worried that there would be a temple of the real goddess of nature in the game, and it was easy for him to cocoon himself by doing so, so he decisively abandoned this idea.

Belief is a very terrifying thing, a little carelessness may make people shatter, even if Ning Yuan has the absolute right to speak in the Condor Realm, he does not dare to dabble in these things easily, because ignorance is sometimes the easiest to get into trouble.

In addition to building three palaces, Ning Yuan immediately organized a large number of laborers to start building official roads in the inner ring of the Great Wall after the earth thawed.

Although he had organized people to build roads before, many of those roads were not of good quality.

Once a large number of cavalry passed, many roads became potholed, and over time, the road conditions became worse and worse, so these roads had to be rebuilt in order to make transportation easier.

Considering the destructive nature of the cavalry on the road surface, Ning Yuan designed a new type of road this time.

This new type of road consists of three parts.

The first part is the driveway located in the middle of the road.

The roadway is still built with sand and gravel, in order to ensure the hardness of the road surface, Ning Yuan let people use hundreds of pounds of stone grinders to repeatedly roll on it until the road surface is completely smooth, and then find cement and asphalt materials, and can also be paved on it for road surface upgrades.

The second part is the horse tracks located on both sides of the central lane.

The horse road is a road specially prepared for the cavalry, because the war horses like to gallop on the prairie, so Ning Yuan simply made the horse road into the shape of a lawn, so that there is no need to worry about the lane being destroyed by the war horses.

The third part is to isolate green belts, drains and footpaths.

The isolated green belt is built on the outside of the horse road and is composed of poplar trees, and the main function is to separate the horse road from the sidewalk and prevent some unnecessary traffic accidents.

On the outside of the green belt are footpaths and drains.

This new type of official road is slightly high in the middle and slightly low on both sides, so that it can avoid a large amount of water accumulation on the road surface in rainy days.

When Ning Yuan told Bai Shihai about the specific design plan, Bai Shihai's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he tightened his eyebrows.

The plan itself is very good, and once the new road is built, it will greatly enhance the connection between the various parts of the Condor Territory.

However, because of the addition of horse lanes on both sides, it will not only occupy a lot of land, but also greatly increase the labor intensity, requiring a lot of manpower and material resources.

Although Ning Yuan is the nominal owner of the Condor Leader, he is just a hands-off shopkeeper, except for the army, the Condor Leader has something, and he is simply black-eyed.

The Condor Leader is really in charge of Bai Shihai, and only Bai Shihai knows the specific situation of the Condor Leader best, so Ning Yuan directly chuckled in his heart after seeing Bai Shihai frowning.

"My lord, the construction of this new type of road is a big project, and the construction of your three palaces has already requisitioned a large number of laborers in the territory, and it seems that spring is about to begin, and there is still a lot of land to be cultivated, so I really can't spare much manpower.

However, once the road you designed is built, it is really very practical, so I suggest that you don't rush it, we can build it one by one.

It will take a lot of time, but you can gradually gain experience, after all, if this kind of road is useful, we will build a lot of it in the future.

What do you think? ”

After thinking about it for a while, Shiraishi gave his own suggestion.

Although he did not explicitly reject Ning Yuan, he had already tactfully reminded Ning Yuan that he should first look at the practicability of this new type of road, and then decide whether to build it on a large scale, after all, Ning Yuan was just thinking casually, whether it was really feasible, no one knew.

Although Ning Yuan usually doesn't take care of things, he is not stupid, so he still heard the meaning of Bai Shihai's words.

After Bai Shihai's reminder, he also suddenly realized.

Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, and he did take it for granted before, so he immediately agreed to Bai Shihai's proposal and decided to fix one first to see if it was practical.

If it is not practical, then the damage is not too great, after all, it has not been built on a large scale.

If it is practical, then it is the best, and when the labor force is sufficient in the future, it can be built on a large scale.

After solving the problem of the road, Ning Yuan and Bai Shihai studied this year's cultivation problem.

The people take food as the sky, although now there is a colorful harvest mountain, there is no shortage of food, but the colorful harvest mountain only solves the urgent need, and there are still many places that need food in the future, so Ning Yuan must take precautions.

With the increase of population and the development of animal husbandry, the cultivated land area in the inner ring of the Great Wall has been shrinking, so Ning Yuan and Bai Shihai have set their sights on the land outside the Great Wall at the same time.

Ning Yuan had an imperial dream in his heart, he couldn't hide in the Great Wall forever, he would go out one day to expand his territory, so he decided to take the first step now.

After discussing with Bai Shihai, Ning Yuan decided to send a part of the peasants and troops to the outside of the Great Wall to conduct tuntian.

Although the security on the periphery of the Great Wall will be greatly reduced, only the player lord can threaten Ning Yuan now, and the remaining aboriginal forces on the Condor plane will not dare to provoke Ning Yuan, so this risk is still worth taking.

Because at that time, if someone really came to invade the Condor Plane, Ning Yuan would only lose some seeds and waste some labor, and if it was safe and sound, the Condor Territory would usher in a bumper harvest.

The gap between gains and losses is literally heaven and earth, so no matter how you look at it, it's a risk worth taking.
