On the other side, Zhuge Liang and Li Ru came to Zhuge Liang's house and stared at the construction plan of the city lord's mansion.
"Ahem." Li Ru coughed twice: "Kong Ming, what do you think?"
Zhuge Liang glanced at Li Ru blankly, rubbed his temples and said, "The difficulty of this blueprint is a bit beyond my expectation. I may not be able to win this competition with Gong Jin."
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly. Could this be shooting himself in the foot?
When I got the blueprint from Li Feng, I was only thinking about surprise. However, when I took a closer look, the surprise suddenly turned into shock.
Although the name is the City Lord's Mansion, it is actually equivalent to a large complex plus the City Lord's Mansion.
It is divided into eight parts: the City Lord's Palace, the Meeting Hall, the Juxian Palace, the Military Machine Pavilion, the Shangli Palace, the Punishment Palace, the Household Finance Office, and the Baigong Building.
If we add the blacksmith shop, clothing shop, and bank, there will be a total of eleven major projects.
In addition, there are other scattered small projects, weapons, farm tools, clothing, etc. It can be said that the tasks are heavy and numerous!
Compared with Zhou Yu, it may be a little more difficult for Zhou Yu to open up the situation in the early stage, but once it is on track, it will be on the highway in minutes!
Zhuge Liang grimaced, and Li Ru's body became cold as he looked at him.
"Wenyou, you must help me, I'm completely relying on you!"
"Hey~" Li Ru looked disgusted.
Waving his hands, he said in a confused tone: "For the sake of how pitiful you are, I will try my best."
Zhuge Liang immediately said happily: "Okay! I'll leave it to you to summon the craftsmen. I'll first understand the blueprint of the city lord's palace."
Li Ru looked speechless: "You are really not polite at all... I think I got on your pirate ship."
Li Ru walked out of the door helplessly, sighing that he was not a kind person.
Zhuge Liang looked at Li Ru's back and snickered, then continued to construct the drawings with a grimace.
"Well... we need to build the City Lord's Palace first, and the other parts will be built around the City Lord's Palace as the core."
"The city lord's mansion is divided into two parts, one is the front yard for entertaining guests, and the other is the backyard for living. Gan, the backyard is divided into three parts, one is the residence, and the courtyard, and the third is the garden. Lord, this Aren’t you trying to embarrass me, you’re like a matryoshka doll!”
"After the City Lord's Palace, the meeting hall should be built, which is also the most important place. It is half a level more important than the City Lord's Palace, but it is far less private, but it is a place for discussion. "
"If the city lord's palace is the lord's private territory, then the meeting hall is the place where decisions are made for the entire territory!"
“So both places are top priorities and there’s no room for sloppiness.”
Zhuge Liang took out a pen and a piece of paper and wrote down all the key points one by one to prevent himself from forgetting.
"The remaining six buildings are equivalent to the cornerstones of the territory. They divide the things that need to be processed in the entire territory into departments. Whether everyone can make the best use of them may depend on these buildings."
"Juxianzhai is used for ministers to discuss matters privately, and it can also be a place where the lord convenes ministers for discussion. Junji Pavilion is similar to Juxianzhuang, but it only functions for the army. Shanglizhai formulates the etiquette and rules of the territory, which is when the territory develops to a certain stage. Something indispensable.”
"The Punishment Office punishes illegal crimes, the Household Finance Office manages the territorial economy, and the Baigong Building researches weapons, farm tools, and life tools. The division of labor is clear. This blueprint really takes all aspects into consideration!"
While recording the key points, Zhuge Liang observed the layout of the entire construction drawing of the City Lord's Mansion. When he understood it almost, he got up and walked out of the house and began to inspect the territory to find the most suitable place to build the City Lord's Mansion.
Zhuge Liang first came to the current meeting hall and quickly shook his head and denied it.
This place was the place chosen when Maplewood Village was first established. After the development and expansion of the novice trial, the entire territory became extremely bloated. The new territory plan will definitely expand outward many times.
As for the current location of the meeting hall, it may be suitable to place it in Fenglin Village, but if it is placed in Fenglin Town, it will not only appear very remote, but the further it develops, the more useless it will become, not to mention that it will not play any role in the territory. , will also cause great inconvenience.
Zhuge Liang walked to other places, but after looking at several places, he was not very satisfied. The most satisfactory place could only be said to be reluctant.
These places either have the same problems as the meeting hall, or they are not large enough and cannot be filled in one set. In addition, security cannot be guaranteed. If you meet a smart enemy, there is a high probability that the house will be stolen.
So Zhuge Liang didn't know how many times he sighed and wandered around Fenglin Village, but he couldn't find a suitable place.
Zhuge Liang was wandering around, looking left and right, and suddenly his eyes lit up, staring straight in one direction, as if he had seen a beautiful woman who he thought would captivate the country, and he was drooling.
"Then, that seems to be a suitable place! But, isn't this a bit too much?" Zhuge Liang fell into deep thought.
Zhuge Liang had just made a breakthrough, and Li Ru, who was in charge of recruiting people, turned his eyebrows pale in worry.
"Dong dong dong!"
Li Ru knocked on the public notice board and said loudly: "Is there anyone who is familiar with carpentry, masonry, and is good at reading pictures and doing construction?"
"Hurry up and come out as soon as possible. The reward will be generous. You can also meet the city lord and leave your name in history. This is a good thing that you will never find in a few lifetimes!"
Everyone looked at each other, and finally someone said in a low voice: "But I don't know how..."
"Yes, I know how to click and click. For such a big project, I'm afraid it will be damaged by the city lord."
"Huh? Lao Wang knows it, why don't you try it?"
"I'm not good at it. I'm just a layman. I can repair my own house, but I'm not good enough to repair a house for the city lord!"
Everyone pushed me and I pushed you, but no one stepped forward, which made Li Ru extremely embarrassed.
If everyone doesn't want to do this, it's better to say it. He can slowly persuade them until they are willing.
But these guys are obviously not unwilling, but lack confidence and worry that they are not capable of repairing it, which is not easy to deal with.
You can't force someone to come up just because you say you're not sure, right? Who will be responsible if something goes wrong?
It's not that Li Ru is worried about being responsible, but the City Lord's Mansion is of great importance. If the builders don't have confidence, how can the City Lord's Mansion be satisfactory?
"Oh, I'm so worried. What should I do? Isn't there anyone who has faith?"
Li Ru sighed, frowning and wondering if there was any other way to select outstanding craftsmen or build their confidence.
After a stalemate with the villagers for a period of time, Li Ru's eyes suddenly lit up, and he really came up with a good idea. The inspiration came from the competition between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu!
"Isn't it easy to build confidence? How about a whole craftsman competition, and the group of people with the highest rankings in the end can't agree even if they want to!"
Li Ru suddenly clapped his hands and left in a hurry under everyone's confused eyes. He was going to make arrangements.
"Well, there can't be a competition without rewards, so we need to plan it carefully. I remember my lord said that Zi Heng seems to be good at this kind of thing, right? You can ask his opinion first."
