In fact, the expansion of Fengshou Castle to the southern bastion is quite close, and it is not impossible to expand further to the south.

It's just that in the past, the two of them had no long-term plans and just wanted to be on one side, so they wanted to occupy Fengshou Forest and kept expanding there. But now that they have children and have long-term plans, their goals are different.

According to the original bridle map of Fengshou Castle, it was extended twenty miles to the southern bastion, to the other side of the hills.

There is a plain on one side and a long river on the other.

Not only is this the narrowest section of the river mouth, but a stone bridge is built directly, which is not very long, only about ten meters.

Floods occur here every few years. Floods can flood the bridge every time, but they never collapse the bridge. Once the water recedes, the bridge can continue to be used.

The plain near the Changhe River is actually a no-care zone. Fengshou Castle had no control over this place before, and no one in the south lived here.

After all, this place is still more northern. It is desolate, has floods, and there are Orc armies fighting the autumn wind from time to time. Therefore, there are only a few villages here. The area is not small, but it has not become a county in the end.

Fengshou Castle was not in a hurry. It chose a good place on a hill thirty miles upstream and built a dock.

It stands to reason that this place is outside the jurisdiction of Fengshou Castle.

But now there is no one here. Fengshou Castle reported to the court that a dock should be built to facilitate trade between the two sides and to solve the work problem of so many refugees.

Of course the South agreed.

Aren't these aristocratic families the main ones who will benefit from building the pier without having to pay for it?

This pier is called Fengshou Pier.

The victims who had recently joined Fengshou Castle and had no skills were sent to the dock to start infrastructure construction.

For a country that is not short of money, infrastructure is really an excellent thing.

But the premise is that you don’t need money.

Infrastructure is really expensive.

Tens of thousands of people were required to build infrastructure. In those days, wood and stone cost nothing and only needed labor force. However, the wages, food, drink, and housing of these people were a terrible expense.

Tens of thousands of taels of silver a month are poured into it, and the water does not even turn over.

This is still a system that uses a large number of orcs and new refugees, plus a mix of southern intellectuals, and Yuan Wense is also good at market calculations. Otherwise, if the people in the middle get kickbacks, this number will probably increase ten times.

That's enough.

These people built the camp first, then the dock, and finally the bastion.

One more tentacle of Fengshou Castle stretches out.

In addition, the Fengshou Castle was previously under the jurisdiction of the Sixteenth Family. The Sixteenth Family fled, and Yuan Wenser let the orcs go over and start building two new bastions.

This is only a bastion and no camp.

What is created is a total war mode.

Even if Yuan Wense is so good at making money, the three infrastructure projects at the same time are also a drag on Fengshou Castle's money shortage.

Fortunately, this time can be regarded as the honeymoon period between Nanfang and Fengshou Castle.

Fengshou Castle once again allows many aristocratic families in the south to purchase Wupin Qixue Powder at will, allowing Wupin Qixue Powder to replace glass and become the number one industry of Fengshou Castle.

This further eased Fengshou Castle's economy.

In addition, several campsites at Fengshou Castle have begun to reclaim wasteland.
