Bruno’s desire for Soran’s territory is only a matter of the future. At least for now, the main thing is to build the bridge.
Bruno naturally had no idea how to build such a high-end thing as a steel bridge.
As for those craftsmen who only had experience in building small stone bridges, Bruno did not dare to let them start directly.
After all, the construction of a bridge involves extremely complex mechanical problems, and if you are not careful, all your efforts will be wasted.
Following the principle of asking the system when in doubt, Bruno quickly activated the wonder construction system, and then...

Compare prices and click to buy! The Wonder Construction System is currently receiving a 10 billion Brilliance Points subsidy. The original high-priced Bridge Construction Diagram only costs 48 Brilliance Points!
As the system owner who had just built an SSSS-level wonder, Bruno had a lot of Brilliance Points on hand! He hadn't even spent the Brilliance Points he got from building the lighthouse last time, and the completion of the large bathhouse brought Bruno another 200 Brilliance Points!
This finally allowed Bruno to experience the joy of the rich! If you want to buy something, just buy it. The joy of the rich is so simple! Besides, the things sold by the wonder construction system are of guaranteed quality. They are just selling some things, and they won't make a lottery with all experience points to fool people.
Since White Barrell had to concentrate on the construction plan of Stonehenge and the implementation of the magic crystal conduction plan, the task of building the bridge this time fell on White Barrell's deputy, Oliver McLean.
Oliver McLean is an immigrant from the Territory of Conte. He is not only one of White Barrell's most trusted assistants, but also a key training target recommended by White Barrell to Bruno. He has experience in being solely responsible for engineering construction.
For example...with the unanimous consent of Bruno and Viscount Conte, the Moore Manor located in the Moore River Valley was built under the supervision of Oliver MacLean.
Today, the control of the Lord's Castle over the entire Idar Territory is no longer what it used to be.
Therefore, when the order to build the bridge came from the study in the lord's castle, the people of the entire Idar territory heard the news at the first time.
Countless steel and stone materials were taken out from different warehouses by the workers of Idar Territory, and ox carts carrying the raw materials for building bridges ran on the wide avenues of Idar Territory.
Although it was winter, unlike other noble territories which were desolate and dilapidated in winter, the city of Idar was brimming with vitality inside and out.
Potatoes and sweet potatoes can be grown twice a year, so they remain hidden in the soil and thrive during the winter.
Moreover, some time ago, Bruno specially ordered people to build a number of vegetable greenhouses on the land in the south of Idar City near the Almis Mountains, and mobilized many serfs to tend them.
Planting out-of-season fruits and vegetables in winter almost dumbfounded the serfs in Idar's territory who had been farming the fields for most of their lives, and even overturned their original worldview.
It turns out... not only the potatoes and sweet potatoes discovered by the Earl, but even the crops that he once planted can be made to thrive in winter through certain methods.
But then again, the vitality in winter is relative after all, especially in Idar County, which has just accepted a large number of refugees, there are still a large number of people who have nothing to do in winter.
Therefore, as soon as the plan to build the bridge was announced, a large number of civilians and serfs came to sign up, clamoring to join the production team.
Although the wages given by the lord were not too much, the key was that they provided food! Moreover, for the people, they were idle anyway, so instead of sitting at home doing nothing all day, they might as well take advantage of the winter to earn more wages.
Of course, this is also what Bruno most wants to see.
If there are too many unemployed people, Bruno will inevitably worry about problems such as rising crime rates, but once people are busy, they will not have so much time and energy to cause trouble.
Compared to thinking hard about how to enrich the spiritual and cultural life and entertainment activities of the Idar people, at least at this stage, Bruno still prefers to keep the people of Idar busy so that they have no energy to think about other things.
In this era without any labor laws, Bruno is the boss of Idar, so... "007" and "996" can really be considered a blessing...
Most of the people who had just entered Idar before the coming of winter did not have any stable source of income. Therefore, as a conscientious nobleman and lord, Bruno could not just watch them starve.
In this case, it would be better to let them use their own hands to exchange for food. This will not only allow them to survive this winter, but also contribute to the construction of Idar County, which is killing two birds with one stone.
In the previous life, people often talked about work-for-relief, which was probably based on this idea...
…
Georgia's family is a native of Idar, and their ancestors have lived on the land of Idar for generations.
Just a year ago, the Idar Territory was just like other noble territories in the eastern part of the empire. The lives of the serfs were miserable and the common people could barely make ends meet.
But even so, it is said to be much better than some noble territories in the inland of the empire.
He grew up in a daze, lived his life in a daze, and then tried every possible way to make his family get through the hard times year after year.
This was Georgia's life a year ago.
But all this has changed imperceptibly.
Thinking back on this now, Georgia couldn't help but sigh. Lord Bruno brought an unprecedented bright future to Idar Territory and the people living in Idar Territory.
In the past, the Earl of Idar did a lot of ridiculous things, such as building the Hanging Gardens and the Namur Fortress...
In the beginning, many civilians were worried that if the Earl’s financial resources could not support such a huge project, they, the lowest-level civilians, would suffer even more cruel exploitation and oppression. But unexpectedly... this did not happen.
On the contrary, the lives of civilians and serfs became better and better as time went by.
Looking back now, everything in Idar County seemed to have changed since the construction of the Sky Gardens began...
