Chapter 419 Long-term considerations
"No, it takes many years for trees to become useful.
During the natural disaster, the refugees had already cut down a lot of wood for warmth. We cannot cut down the wood on a large scale, we still have to think about it for a long time."
Su Manrong shook her head without hesitation. She had thought of this before, so she had asked the 50th Guards to plant saplings in the forest.
"The city lord is thinking about the long term." Guo Zhizhou nodded solemnly upon hearing this: "Then I will tell the people and let them find another way. If someone is good at burning kilns, maybe they can replace part of the wood."
After all, there are many places where wood is used in daily production and life. For example, every household needs wooden barrels, wooden basins and the like.
But if the wood cannot be cut down casually, some of these things can be replaced with ceramics.
"It's okay to burn the kiln, but the carpentry work can't be delayed. I will find a way to get in touch with the outside world. If other cities have enough wood, we can exchange it."
Su Manrong originally wanted to buy wood from the space, but the price of solid wood was simply outrageous, so people were left with the solid wood they spent huge sums of money to buy to make objects such as tables, chairs, and benches.
It would be better for her to buy some wrought-iron ponytails, wrought-iron round stools, or plastic stools directly from the space.
If you can spend a small amount of money, exchanging with other cities is also a way.
But if the exchange cost is too expensive, it is completely unnecessary.
After all, wood can be replaced. If there is really something that cannot be replaced, it is okay to cut down some wood appropriately.
"Okay, then I'll go say hello to the people." Guo Zhizhou nodded.
"In the past two days, the main road to and from South City 2 and South City 1 has been completed. Could you please Guo Zhizhou to recruit some coachmen? We in Qianzhou will prepare road vehicles."
Su Manrong lowered his head and looked at the to-do list on his notebook. Road trips were necessary.
Between the five cities of Qianzhou, it is inevitable for the indigenous people to visit each other's relatives. There are also some factories set up in the other four cities. If someone goes to work in the factory, it is convenient to go back and forth every day.
In addition, there are currently no independent large-scale supply and marketing cooperatives in the four cities of Qianzhou. Whether it is the four cooking teams or other departments, the materials they need are generally transported from Qianzhou.
If money begins to circulate, other people will also go to Qianzhou for shopping.
She currently does not have the energy to arrange so many people to open supply and marketing cooperatives in the four cities of Qianzhou. When the economic system recovers, ordinary people can open their own shops and run various shops.
Anyway, supply and marketing cooperatives will eventually withdraw from the stage of history, so there is no need to spend so much time and energy preparing so many stores.
After seeing off Guo Zhizhou, Su Manrong went to the courtyard to chat and laugh with everyone.
Because the weather is neither cold nor hot now, it is slightly hot during the day, but it is still a little cool when sitting in the yard at night, which is very comfortable.
The four children, Wangwang and Xiaofeng, plus Zheng'er and Yuan'er, performed talents for each other, expressing the knowledge they learned in kindergarten in a new way.
The world of children is so simple. The more they see their elders laughing, the harder they perform.
"Manrong, Cheng Xiao came back to me two days ago and told me that she and the second young master are in love. But you and Xian'er have been busy, and they want to wait until they are free before mentioning the marriage."
Although Aunt Du is not Xiao Chengxiao's biological aunt, she has raised Xiao Chengxiao for so many years, and she is also very attentive to Xiao Chengxiao's marriage.
Hearing this, Su Manrong stopped clapping her hands and said in a low voice: "My husband and I have also thought that their marriage is imminent, and have prepared a courtyard for them. If they want to get married as soon as possible, they can start planning it."
Su Manrong and Xiao Chengxian are so disgusting that they can't see the emotional changes between Su Litao and Xiao Chengxiao.
It was just a major matter of marriage between two people, and they should have taken the initiative to bring it up, so I didn't say much.
"Cheng Xiao was worried before that the relationship between Xiao Mansion and Su Mansion would affect her..."
Aunt Du nodded happily after hearing this.
"Where are the Su Mansion and the Xiao Mansion? In the future, after they get married, the Su Mansion will be..."
Su Manrong shook her head and reminded softly: "If my aunt has nothing to do recently, just ask Shiyi for the key to the house and help them organize it."
With that said, Su Manrong turned around and looked at the Wu0 guards who were silently guarding every corner of the palace.
They are also all good sons and daughters in their prime of youth and splendor...
...
Jiaozhou Island.
The third brother woke up in the middle of the night. Looking at the masked man holding a knife in front of him, he was so scared that he peed his pants and kept begging.
"I am the third elder brother of Dekang. If you let me go, my father will definitely give it to you..."
"What we are looking for is Dekang's third elder brother. As long as he is Dekang's elder brother, we must kill him. My master helped the saint ascend the throne. Now that the saint is about to die, then this country must belong to my master, and you all must die."
The masked man shouted, knocked out Third Brother, left the scene in a mess, and quickly headed to the beach.
As soon as they left this inconspicuous courtyard, General Zhu Guo's troops rushed into the courtyard.
"No, third brother is missing."
"Qi'er?" General Zhuguo stepped forward and looked at the empty bed board sadly.
The third elder brother was taken away, which could be very dangerous. It must be the queen's people who want to kill him...
If there is no third elder brother, then their whole family will be hopeless. When the new emperor ascends the throne, they will be the first to be dealt with.
"General, the bedding is still warm. They haven't gone far yet."
"Chase."
Suddenly, the originally quiet and peaceful Jiaozhou Island was in a state of chaos. Those innocent people who were still sleeping were called up to search their homes.
"General, the ship has been sailed away!"
The people who had just been picked up from their sleep looked at the large group of people leaving quickly with bewildered expressions. They returned home in fear and closed the door, trembling.
"It seems like there's a fight?"
At this time, the big ship was not too far from the shore, and it was somewhat clear that the situation on the big ship was tense.
There are no ships on the shore at the moment, and General Zhu Guo can only look at the big ships, hoping that friendly troops will come to help.
Finally, the sound of the ice blades colliding with each other on the big ship stopped, and the big ship was slowly driven to the shore again.
"Is that General Zhuguo ahead?"
"Exactly, I am General Dekang Zhuguo. I dare to ask the brave warrior, can the third elder brother be on the ship?"
General Zhuguo nodded repeatedly, without caring about putting on airs, and stepped forward to introduce himself to the family in a very easy-going manner.
"The thieves who just tried to kidnap Third Elder Brother were shot down into the sea. Third Elder Brother is safe and sound."
After the ship docked, the group of people carried the unconscious Third Brother off the ship to meet General Zhu Guo.
"May I ask where the warrior is from?"
