West of Juyan Sea, at the foot of a mountain east of the Altaic Mountains.
Zhu Xiong had brought a million subjects and two hundred thousand soldiers to this place.
This was the new city that Zhu Xiong had decided to build.
This was actually the place that Zhu Xiong had decided on after careful consideration.
This place was close to the Altaic Mountain Range in the west.
The Altaic Mountains had extremely rich mines and vast forests.
The east was close to the Juyan Sea, with abundant freshwater resources and crisscrossed underground rivers. The land was fertile and very suitable for planting.
To the south, it was at the junction of Hami Wei of the Ming Dynasty and the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
To the north was a vast grassland.
It was definitely a very good place to build a city.
There was no shortage of water, wood, minerals, or fertile land.
The only flaw was that it was a little cold.
It was definitely more troublesome to grow crops here than in the Starting City.
The difference in temperature between day and night was extremely obvious.
The highest temperature during the day could be 16 or 17 degrees, and at night, it could be as low as-2 or-3 degrees.
And it would become very cold in winter.
It could reach-20 to-30 degrees.
To build a city here, the only thing Zhu Xiong had to overcome was the temperature deviation.
However, Zhu Xiong had already made plans.
The construction of the city this time was completely different from the construction of the Starting City last time.
The first time he built the Starting City, Zhu Xiong was poor and had nothing except for the few subjects under his command.
However, this time was different. Zhu Xiong had come prepared.
When they decided to build a city here, they had also thought of how to solve the problem of temperature difference.
Zhu Xiong had brought a large amount of coal from the Starting City.
Because it was located in the highlands, the temperature was relatively low all year round, and it was even colder in winter.
Therefore, when he was building the city, Zhu Xiong prepared to build a large number of earth walls and brick beds in the city.
Then, they could use coal stoves to ensure indoor heating.
Furthermore, Zhu Xiong had decided to build the city entirely with bricks.
Therefore, they planned to build a large number of brick kilns outside the city and specially exchanged for talents who fired the brick kilns to ensure the production and output of the brick kilns.
In addition to the brick kiln, Zhu Rong also exchanged for professionals who could make cement.
The manufacturing method of cement was not complicated.
There were not many raw materials, only limestone, clay, sand, iron slag, and so on.
After building the cement kiln, they could basically produce cement in batches.
In this way, the basic conditions for building a city with stone bricks were completed.
Other than building a city made of stone bricks.
Zhu Xi also wanted to build a greenhouse here to ensure that the crops were not affected by the weather.
In this era, there was no film, and Zhu Rong was temporarily unable to create it. The machine to make film could not even be exchanged for talents because it was too expensive. He could not afford it.
Therefore, he exchanged for an elite structural construction talent.
He exchanged for another elite glass-making talent.
He planned to build a large greenhouse with glass instead of film, and a mud wall to control the temperature inside the greenhouse.
As long as someone kept an eye on the greenhouse, took good care of it, watered it on time, and fertilized it, the harvest of the greenhouse would definitely not be bad.
This way, the city would be self-sufficient in terms of food.
At the same time, Zhu Xiong was preparing to build a core point for this city.
This core point was smelting!
After the city was repaired, the people here would mainly focus on smelting and planting.
Zhu Rong wanted to build a city of steel here.
After making a plan.
The millions of subjects began to build.
With the experience of the first city construction in the Starting City, he was able to build a new city.
It was easy to build this city.
Furthermore, with the 200,000 soldiers as a guarantee, Zhu Xiong was not afraid of encountering an enemy attack.
As a result, the millions of subjects were mobilized by Zhu Xiong.
Wasteland clearing, logging, mining, building brick kilns, cement kilns, finding mines, digging machines, digging ditches, and so on.
Just like that, a huge project began to be built vigorously.
