Dragon City was bustling with activity. Everywhere, residents could be seen turning into construction workers. Under the guidance of some elves that Louis had found, they were digging foundations and building bricks.
As a medieval city, there was no need to be so demanding in many aspects. After all, it was impossible to build a 20-story building here. Building a two-or three-story building was already the limit, so the technical requirements were not that high. Although there was no reinforced concrete, some wood and stones could be seen everywhere.
Louis had no intention of making cement in this world. The main reason was that he could not guarantee that the method of making cement would not be stolen. It was impossible for Louis to make cement himself. He would definitely hand it over to others to complete the mass casting. As long as others knew the method, he could not guarantee that it would not be leaked.
If some human countries knew the manufacturing method, they would be able to produce far more than Dragon City with more manpower. That would undoubtedly increase the difficulty of Louis's game.
There was actually something similar to cement in this world, but it was a product of a mage's spell.
Louis 'plan was to train a group of low-level mages in the future, and let the mages use the spell of "Petrification to Mud" to directly create a batch of cement, which could be used to pave roads or cast better walls and houses. This was in line with the magic culture of this world, and other countries could not learn it. This was the real monopoly.
The civilian area of the city was built according to Louis's plan. Louis believed that the future Dragon City would definitely attract a large number of people to live here, so he left a large gap. When the population increased in the future, he could continue to expand.
However, the area near his lair, which was the former noble area, was very carefully planned and constructed by Louis. The most hardworking and agile workers in the city were sent here. Under the command of the Great Mage, Mochis, they began to rebuild the noble area.
All the houses here were two-story or three-story buildings, so that more people could live in the small area. In the future, when Dragon City became the most coveted city in the entire continent, when it was as difficult to settle down in Dragon City as it was in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, Louis, who knew that housing prices were expensive, would directly reward him with a house in the second ring of Dragon City. He believed that the other party would be grateful and bring his family to pledge loyalty to him.
The supervisors in the noble area were all elves. These elves were not as strict as human supervisors, but they paid more attention to details. However, the people who came to work here were all selected from the whole city, so the elves did not have to worry about them cheating. As long as they monitored the details and did not create any dangerous buildings, it was enough.
The people working here could also see that there had been large groups of elves coming and going recently. They rode animals that looked like horses in the depths of the forest and pulled carts. They transported supplies in batches, and even the elf army was directly mobilized. Horned eagles flew in the sky and pulled goods. It was a busy busy scene, which allowed the people of Dragon City to witness the beauty of elves. It was the first time in their lives that they had seen so many elves.
These supplies were the food that the great dragon had promised to give to the elves. However, Dragon City lacked manpower, so the elves had to transport the goods themselves.
There were indeed spatial equipment in this world, but they were at least Legendary items. Most of these items had very small storage capacity, and they were very rare. They were only the personal items of some powerful mages. Generally, items with large storage capacity were almost divine artifacts, so they were even more difficult to come by.
If this world was really flooded with spatial equipment, there would be no need for caravans. Trade between countries would be abnormally frequent and developed, and the economy of the entire continent would not be so backward.
Therefore, for all races and countries, they still relied on convoys to transport supplies.
Rome wasn't built in a day, and the City of the Dragon couldn't be rebuilt in a few days, especially since Louis had changed the plans of so many cities. However, he wasn't in a hurry. For dragons, decades could pass in a sleep, let alone a few months.
Louis was getting used to the fact that his lifespan was far longer than that of humans. In fact, he might even become immortal in the future. Therefore, he tried his best not to spend his time with the thoughts of a human. That would make him feel very painful. Humans were in a hurry because of their short lifespans. However, for races with long lifespans, for gods, they would even spend hundreds or thousands of years to do something. Therefore, Louis had to learn to waste his time.
Royalty was not eternal, only the gods were immortal!
To Louis, everything he was doing now was for the sake of becoming an immortal god one day. Therefore, he could not be anxious. He had to lay down all his foundations. Only by transcending himself could he truly transcend. All other rights and wealth were just the means needed to achieve immortality.
The sun was setting, and the day's work was over. The workers sat on the ground, panting and resting. They were chatting and laughing with each other. Although they were tired from the work, their faces were filled with excitement. The happiest time was about to come. The Feudal Lord Lord was going to give them a day's reward-exquisite wheat and some meat!
Louis knew very well the bad habits of humans. If you helped them too much and gave them too much, they would become dependent on you. Once you stopped helping them, you would be hated by humans.
Therefore, the food that Louis distributed to every household was calculated according to the head, so that they could almost eat their fill without leaving much surplus food. Those who worked hard would be rewarded slightly more. This was the best way to motivate humans.
Even if Louis's food came from the wind, even if every household was given a ton, as long as Louis dared to do so, other than the fact that the civilians would be grateful at the beginning, it would not take long for them to become even more greedy. They would definitely become lazy during the period of time when they had food.
Therefore, accurately calculating the wages and food given to them, and even not letting them eat when they needed it, this was also a skill.
"Everyone, line up to receive your reward!”
Some elves shouted loudly, and the people lined up quietly and neatly to receive their rewards. Those who cut the queue and caused trouble had already been brought to the square to be whipped, so no one would cause trouble at this time.
"John!"
When John Senior heard someone calling him and saw that it was an elf soldier, he quickly bent down and smiled fawningly. He came to the elf with a slight nervousness.
The male elf frowned as he looked at the humans in front of him, but he quickly relaxed. Yes, these humans were no longer smelly. Although they were still a little dirty, compared to the humans in other places, the elves 'mysophobia could already accept the people in this city.
"You've been working very hard recently, and you're able to use the knowledge you've learned to lead others to do better. The great Galakron is a dragon who rewards and punishes clearly. This is a reward given to those who have contributed according to His Majesty's instructions!”
As he said that, Elf handed over a wooden box. He looked envious.
Old John was originally nervous and afraid that he had done something wrong. After hearing the elf's words, he was ecstatic. He was so excited that he knelt down as if he had received an imperial edict and carefully took the wooden box.
He glanced at the elf and opened it with a nod.
"God!" John Senior exclaimed. He stared at the item in the wooden box in disbelief. It was a fork, an extremely exquisite cutlery fork that looked like a work of art!
That exquisite appearance, the smooth feeling of not having any thorns, and the fork that was almost accurate to the millimeter, was definitely an item that could only be forged by a Dwarven Master Craftsman!!!!
Of course, modern assembly lines could easily produce things that were accurate to millimeters…Louis had taken everything away when he robbed the freighter. It was probably used by a crew member to eat, and Louis had no use for it. He felt disgusted that it had been used by others, so he gave it to his outstanding subjects as a reward.
The elven soldiers also looked at the fork with envy. Although the patterns on it did not match the beauty of the elves and seemed a little stiff and square, the patterns were clearly the work of a master craftsman of the dwarves. This fork was so exquisite that it had a mathematical beauty. Even in the elven race, only the upper elf nobles could have it!
But now, this fork had been given to a human commoner. This made the elves very envious and jealous. They even wanted to roll up their sleeves and go down to carry bricks. If they carried bricks properly, perhaps His Holiness would give them such an exquisite fork!
"His Excellency said that this fork has been bestowed with magic and will not rust. You must take good care of it!”
"Please rest assured, I will treat it like my own child and treat it as a family heirloom so that my descendants will never forget the Lord's gift!”
God, it was actually an enchanted cutlery fork. It actually didn't rust!!!
John Senior was so excited that he almost fainted. If Louis was in front of him now, he would probably kneel down and suck up to him.
The fork would not rust because it was made of stainless steel…
