Become the city lord from today

"clang......"

A road starting from Haiyan City and ending at Yingluo City is under construction in full swing, and a group of workers are working hard.

Due to the typhoon a few days ago, they were allowed to rest for a few days. As soon as the typhoon ended, they came out to work immediately.

In the past few days during the typhoon, even if the workers did not work on the construction site, they would still be given three meals a day as usual, but the corresponding wages were gone these days.

Most of the workers building the road are knights from the Larson Elf Empire and the Torola Orc Empire. They have been at the construction site for several months.

An orc knight was working and said in a good mood,"The weather is really nice today."

His name is John Xun, a knight of the Torola Orc Empire, a bull orc with brown hair and a bit wild appearance.

"Yes, it feels very comfortable just after it rained."An elf knight wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He is Semir, a knight of the Larson Elf Empire. He is an elf with green hair. There is a long scar on his left face. Both of them are captains of knights from various countries..

Their daily job is to open up the previous dirt road, dig it loose, transport the soil away, and then fill it with cement mixed with sand and gravel. The last step is to use draft horses to pull huge logs and roll them over, and the workers will also use force. Push forward to make the cement appear flat, and then draw horizontal lines on the flat cement surface.

This is done because of thermal expansion and contraction. The cement pavement will expand in the summer when the temperature is high..If the cement pavement is a whole, the expanded cement will be squeezed if there is no room for expansion and contraction. When the temperature returns to normal or when the temperature becomes cold, the cement pavement shrinks, which will cause the already dense structure to break. The cement pavement appears Cracks, thereby reducing the service life of the pavement, but manual cutting leaves room for thermal expansion and contraction, which can easily and effectively avoid these problems.

John dug the ground with the hoe in his hand and said,"The wind blowing is really It's cool and you won't feel uncomfortable even if you sweat."

"The road construction work is better than imagined." Semir said

"No, fortunately we didn't do anything stupid at the time."John said happily.

When Niu Da arranged for them to build roads before, they were all unwilling. It was a great humiliation for a noble knight to be arranged to build roads.

But there was no choice. The days of drifting on the sea were too miserable, and they too wanted to set foot on land to feel the security brought by the land. Coupled with the compromises of Prince Nemo and the Marquis of Leicester, they had no choice.

Semir was also hoeing the ground, He echoed,"Yes, if I had known that life on the construction site was not as bad as imagined, I should have come here earlier."

Although the whole road construction work is tiring, there are also good things. We have meat for three meals, and the food is enough. The place to sleep at night is not bad, and everyone has their own bed.

There are also toilets and washing machines. The bathing areas are very clean, and there will be soap for them to wash their clothes, making their clothes that were originally like smelly rags look brand new.

These are things that I could not imagine before, even if they are not trapped at sea, but In the original empire, there would not be such treatment.

"It's not too late now."John Xun raised his head and said

"That's true, but I heard that the empire sent an envoy. Does this mean we have to go back? Semir suddenly felt a little reluctant.

John's eyes widened and he asked curiously,"What?" Has the empire sent envoys?

Semima nodded without hesitation and said,"Yes, I don't know who your orc empire has sent. Our empire has sent your Majesty's favorite Princess Jill.""

"Looking at it this way, we are almost going back." John Xun said helplessly.

Semir stopped the hoe and lowered his voice and said,"To be honest with you, I don't really want to go back."

The life we ​​live now is something I have never imagined before. The food, drink and accommodation are very good. It is better than in the knight camp in my own empire. At least I don't have to eat those boiled meats in salt water every three days.

"Actually, I am too. When I go back, I no longer have to eat meat every meal." John Xun said immediately.

Semir sighed,"Oh, I can only pray that the time to go back can be delayed."

"I hope so too." John Xun agreed.

Three hours later, the construction site supervisor blew his whistle and shouted,"It's lunch time, pack up the tools, wash your hands and go to the canteen to line up."

Semir and the others' eyes lit up when they heard the whistle. After working so hard every day, the only comfort was this meal. They quickly put away the tools in their hands and headed towards the canteen. The canteens for road construction are not fixed. It is said to be a mobile canteen, because the progress of road construction is not too slow, and a long section will be built every once in a while.

It is impossible that the road has been built so far, and we still have to travel so far back just for a meal. Right? Of course, the place to sleep at night is fixed.

"Tap tap tap......"

Semir, John Xun and others carried their tools and ran quickly towards the canteen. Everyone's face no longer looked like they had worked hard all morning, but instead had more smiles on their faces.

A few minutes later, all the knights had washed their hands and gathered at the entrance of the canteen. The mobile canteen was actually several large tents with complete facilities.

"Semir, guess what’s in today’s lunch?"John said expectantly.

Semima thought for a moment and said,"There must be meat. The side dishes at noon should include potatoes and corn."

Their recipes come and go with seven or eight kinds of dishes, and they are given different combinations every day of the week so that they will not get tired of eating them for a long time.

"I don’t think so. I just ate potatoes yesterday, so today it will probably be sweet potatoes, plus some green vegetables."John was already swallowing his saliva.

Semir was the same, his throat was constantly secreting saliva, and he said indifferently,"Whether it's sweet potatoes or potatoes, I can do it."

Anyway, it's delicious.

"This is the only point of view that the two of us agree on."John Xun said with a hearty smile.
