Chapter 407
As the saying goes: If you want to be rich, build roads first.
This is not false at all.
The high-quality resources in many parts of the island are difficult to transport to the camp because of the inconvenient transportation, which affects the improvement of the quality of life.
It is imperative to engage in several driving routes!
But how to do it, Lu Zhe is ready to discuss it with a few girls.
Ning Shu first said: "The most convenient driving directions are the edge of woodland and sandy beaches.
There is shallow grass, land and shade, especially suitable for ox carts. Everywhere there are palm trees and rocks to tie cattle, and later we can pick up sea goods or marine debris to make ox carts.
Tang Xiaoguo said happily: "Yes, the things I picked up are directly placed on the ox cart, I am not tired at all, and the fuel consumption is 2 tons of grass per 100 kilometers!"
"Isn't that a bit much?"
Jiang Yao thought for a moment and asked again: "By the way, can the ox cart walk on the beach?"
Shen Bing nodded: "I tried it with Lu Zhe the night before, compared to the shallow grass, the beach is a little trapped, relatively laborious, but it can be walked, and it is not bumpy at all."
Jiang Yao frowned: "Did you go out in the middle of the night just to try to walk the sand in an ox cart?"
Shen Bing touched his little belly and said: "Yaoyao, don't be careful, I'm not suitable for strenuous exercise now, and Lu Zhe was quite safe yesterday."
Tang Xiaoguo pursed his lips: "Sister Bing, are we worried about Lu Zhe?"
Shen Bing smiled: "You don't have to worry about me, don't worry!" For Lu Zhe, I will also take care of myself and the baby!
Jiang Yao and Tang Xiaoguo were stunned at the same time, and they found that Sister Bing unconsciously seemed to be on the stage again.
Shallow but indifferent to the happy: "Then we can take an ox cart to drive around the island next time, bring food and play, sometimes hurry, sometimes picnic, sometimes camp, partners all the way to stop and go, how comfortable!"
Ning Shu also nodded: "Yes, there is no need for Lu Zhe to pull the fiber, a few of us are sitting inside, can the cow pull?"
Shen Bing said: "A peasant cow in my hometown pulls an ox cart with five or six farmers, and there is no problem at all in walking thirty or fifty miles a day. Our cow is a little smaller, but the two ends work together, and it should not be bad.
Lu Zhe nodded: "I haven't tested their limits so far, rough estimates, pulling a seven or eight hundred pounds of goods stop-and-go, walking 20 kilometers a day should not be a big problem."
Ning Shu calculated in his heart and said in surprise: "So, driving an ox cart can almost go around the island in a day?"
Lu Zhe nodded: "Based on the 25 to 30 square kilometers of the island, it is about the same, but considering the play and leisure, if you are a little more conservative, it can be completed in two days."
Shen Bing nodded: "But the ox cart can't pass there in the whirlpool."
Ning Shu said: "But we can go to the same way and return, and then walk there from the north for the second time, or we can return the same way."
Lu Zhe nodded: "It's a way, but you can also directly open a road in the jungle, although it is troublesome, but it is more secure."
Tang Xiaoguo said happily, "Then when do we leave?"
Lu Zhe smiled: "Did I say I was leaving?" We are discussing the route that the oxcart can enter, and we have just discussed the first ring road. The roundabout has to be put aside a little later.
Shen Bing nodded: "Are there other feasible routes?"
"No, but we can build a few roads."
"Build roads? Where to start?
Lu Zhe pondered for a while and said,
"I have a few ideas!
The first is from the camp to the cave, which passes through bamboo and banana forests, which is convenient for collecting bamboo in large quantities and for the two camps to share resources!
The second is from the camp to the freshwater lake, which passes through the woodland, and if one is opened, it can be more convenient to transport wood and freshwater aquatic products.
The third is from the camp to the tidal flats, where wild animals such as island sheep, wild boar, and deer dolphins can be hunted and transported back, as well as coconuts, Nishidani coconut palms and some wood. What do you think?
Ning Shu thought for a while: "I think the first idea is good, the camp and the cave are originally very close, but because the road is not good, it takes ten minutes to walk there, and if it is accessible, it is estimated that it will arrive in a few minutes."
Shen Bing thought for a while and said: "I also think the first one is good, after all, the first road we want to build on this island, the difficulty should be less, and bamboo is no less effective for us than wood."
"The camp has better living conditions, and there is better drinking water and hot springs over there in the cave!" With this road, Sister Bing and Guo'er can live in the plane, but they can drink the mountain spring water transported there every day, which is more conducive to the baby's growth.
Jiang Yao nodded: "I originally thought that the second one was good and could go fishing often, but after listening to these reasons, I also think that the first idea is more suitable for us!"
Tang Xiaoguo said: "I have no idea at all!
Shen Bing nodded: "Since the opinions have been agreed, we will consider how to build the road next." This Lu Zhe, have you talked about it in your 100,000 whys?
Lu Zhe nodded: "With our current situation, as long as we dig up the trees on the road, it is enough width for the ox cart to walk over, and the first step is completed!" But this alone will not work, vines and weeds will twist the wheels, and the bare rocks will also cause damage to the hooves and hubs. It needs to be further trimmed!
Jiang Yao said, "Is it paving the way?" Do you want to engage in roadbed or something?
"We don't need a roadbed for an ox cart, just make the road smoother." Ancient road construction usually uses cooked soil, that is, the soil is dug out and burned, and then buried back, burying some rocks and roots that are not easy to handle, high temperature will kill insect eggs and grass seeds in the soil, but also remove humus, such soil plus hay, sand, paving the road is very good.
Ning Shu nodded: "Although digging is more troublesome, there are hay and sea sand, do you use this line?"
Lu Zhe thought for a while: "The principle is that Shanghai sand cannot be used to pave roads, because salt will corrode the foundation, but we don't have this worry!" Laying sand is just to pad your feet, as long as the road is good, a little salt is not a problem!
Ning Shu asked, "Then when do we start?!"
Lu Zhe looked at his watch: "I'll go and determine the route in a while, and then everyone will cut some weeds to dry, and tomorrow we will start repairing the first road we landed on the island!" Then
, Lu Zhe and Shen Bing went to plan the route, and when the road encountered the big tree, it was bypassed as much as possible, and when the road met the small tree, it was directly pulled up.
Shen Bing watched the small tree with a large bowl mouth being uprooted by Lu Zhe, and couldn't help but marvel, it turned out that the upside-down weeping willow written by Shi Nai-an was not nonsense!
In the afternoon, a path was planned, and Shen Bing marked it with a rope.
Lu Zhe set up the golden pot, began to burn the soil, and began to build the first road on the island!
