A new year brings a new atmosphere. In the year of the general election, Ning Yiwen set foot in Sun City for the first time, which was an eye-opener.
As two newly elected members of the Arbitration Court, Shen Tianlin and Ning Yiwen made an appointment to go shopping together and have a good look at Sun City.
The two of them each brought a few followers. Fortunately, the Shen family had met them before. But the people of the Ning family are different. Everything they see is novel.
Ning Yiwen brought two of his confidants, his eldest son Ning Shiyan, and his eldest daughter Ning Shiyin.
The group first went to the busiest commercial street in Sun City. Shen Tianlin served as a guide, introducing various features to the Ning family.
When passing by a bookstore, the Ning family's eyes widened as they looked at the beautifully printed books. They were shocked on the spot.
Shen Tianlin said with a smile: "Any book you like can be bought as long as you have money. There are many bookstores in the city. Let the store recommend what kind of books you want to buy."
Ning Yiwen took a book of Shuowen Jiezi and flipped through it, and immediately asked: "How much does this book cost?"
The waiter in the bookstore smiled and said: "This book is the best-selling book at the moment. It is a best-seller. The price is only one yuan and two cents. If you want both volumes, it will cost two yuan and two cents in total."
"Shuowen Jiezi" is the basis of the alliance's writing, and it comes with pinyin. Beginners can also learn by themselves. It contains 1,500 commonly used characters and is divided into two volumes.
Ning Yiwen took the first volume. He taught himself the alliance writing and language two years ago, and he could tell at a glance that this book would be of great use to Ning Cheng.
Secretly converting sun coins and silver, Ning Yiwen thought it was very cheap and immediately decided to buy two sets.
On the other side, Ning Shiyan picked up an equipment design book with paintings and looked at it in fascination, while Ning Shiyin stared at the beautiful clothing design book.
Just a bookstore makes it impossible for the Ning family to leave.
Shen Tianlin had to remind in a low voice: "If you want to read a book, we will go to the library later. There are thousands of books there, covering all aspects."
Ning Yiwen: "Why are these books sold so cheaply?"
Shen Tianlin: "...The alliance's papermaking and printing technology is developing rapidly and the cost is low, so books are not expensive to sell. The Sun Alliance attaches great importance to the dissemination of knowledge and attaches great importance to education. We will visit various schools later and you will understand. ”
After shopping for three days, the Ning family was greatly shocked and had a clearer understanding of the Sun Alliance.
Before leaving, Ning Yiwente proposed to the Arbitration Court that he wanted to speed up the alliance's reconstruction of Ningcheng, especially the construction of schools and business support.
Although Ningcheng is richer than Yuncheng, Pingcheng, and Ancheng, it is completely incomparable to Sun City.
Of course, the Arbitration Court strongly supports this. Ningcheng is already a part of the alliance and has a special position. According to the long-term plan, Ningcheng is the most worthy of investment among the four cities in Tianduan Mountain.
Ning Yiwen didn't need to specifically mention it, the Arbitration Court also had this intention.
However, in order to show its importance, the Arbitration Court specially appointed Lin Yun as a representative to go to Ningcheng to help build Ningcheng.
Ning Yiwen reluctantly set out to go home, but left his children behind in Sun City.
In late February, the work of the Arbitration Court was properly arranged. Lin Yan and Lan Yue set off together, one to Wuhe City and the other to Ningcheng.
The key work this year is the construction and land reclamation of Wuhe City. Ningcheng is an important military area, and Lan Yue must personally go there to form a garrison and prepare a good defense.
When Lin Yan came to Wuhe City again, she squinted her eyes for a long time and found that it was different from when she left.
There was land reclamation machinery operating outside the city, and many people were working behind it.
With the help of excavators and cranes, the efficiency of land reclamation has been greatly improved. In one day, five to ten acres of land can be cultivated.
Xu Yeshan stared at the fields in person, feeling extremely excited.
Once you have the land, you just need to sow seeds and plant according to the methods taught by the alliance, and you will soon be able to harvest the first crop, and you will no longer have to worry about going hungry.
He didn't even notice Lin Yan approaching, immersed in his own world.
"What are you thinking about, so devoted?"
When Xu Yeshan came back to his senses, he was very surprised to see that it was Lin Yan. She always came so suddenly, which was surprising. He hurriedly said: "I was thinking about how beautiful it is when seeds are scattered, and when the food grows and is harvested."
"It's very beautiful. I think those who harvest it will feel happier." Lin Yan looked at the distance, and such a scene was indeed enviable.
The large plain area outside the city is suitable for farming. When it is fully reclaimed and planted, it will definitely be the most beautiful scenery.
Xu Yeshan: "I am very happy right now."
Most of the people who settled in Wuhe City came from Yuncheng. Xu Yeshan was from Yuncheng and was even more touched by this. He wanted to complete Lin Yan's plan for Wuhe City, how magnificent it was.
Seeing Xu Yeshan's excited eyes filled with tears, Lin Yan had an idea and said, "Mr. Xu, are you willing to take on the heavy responsibility of Wuhe City?"
"What do you mean by this?" Xu Yeshan looked at her in surprise, not daring to think too much.
Lin Yan explained: "The importance of Wuhe City is self-evident, and there must be a good city lord to promote all of this. All I can do is supervise the initial construction. As for how far it will be built in the future, it depends on everyone in Wuhe City The most important thing is of course whether the leaders of Wuhe City can shoulder the heavy responsibility and achieve the alliance's expectations for Wuhe City. I also know that these all take time and there is no need to rush. Mr. Xu is not in a hurry to answer, he can take his time. consider."
After returning from Yuncheng, she noticed Xu Yeshan. After getting in touch with him, she thought he was quite good. He was devoted to the people and could be said to be an alternative among the powerful class.
Such people are exactly what the league needs.
The Arbitration Court has already discussed the candidate for the city master of Five Rivers City, but has not yet decided because there is no suitable candidate.
As soon as he saw the stars in Xu Yeshan's eyes, Lin Yan suddenly realized that he was the most suitable candidate.
Xu Yeshan looked at her blankly, could he really hold such an important position?
Lin Yan smiled and said: "The alliance will naturally have a set of assessment standards for employment. If you meet the conditions, you will be qualified. If you agree, I will write to the Human Resources Department immediately."
Personnel appointment is the purview of the Personnel Management Department, and she has the right to make nominations.
Xu Yeshan's thoughts were ups and downs. He also knew something about the alliance, so he naturally knew what it meant to be the lord of a city.
Lin Yan thinks highly of him because he recognizes and trusts his ability.
He has also seen the alliance's plan for Five Rivers City. It can be said that they have high hopes. The person who can be appointed as the city lord must be able to achieve something.
Xu Yeshan felt that this was an excellent opportunity. He wanted to do something to express his ambition, and immediately said: "I am willing. If I don't understand something in the future, I will ask you for more advice."
Lin Yan nodded with a smile, "The planning plan for Wuhe City has been prepared a long time ago. You can just implement it. If you encounter any problems, report them to the Arbitration Court and we will work together to solve them. I recommend you because I think you have the ability. You Don’t live up to my expectations.”
Xu Yeshan said seriously: "Don't worry, this opportunity is rare, I will do my best."
The verbal negotiation was completed, but the appointment letter didn't come out for a day, and both of them tacitly agreed not to mention it again.
Lin Yan went around checking the progress every day, and when necessary, led people to sweep away the ferocious beasts around Wuhe City.
Booms and explosions were heard from time to time, which was the sound of explosives.
Lin Yan couldn't do everything, and would only take action when encountering a ferocious beast that they couldn't deal with. She was just escorting them, and the future of Five Rivers City would depend on these people themselves.
Now is the opportunity to practice, let them adapt in advance, exercise more, and lay the foundation for the future.
Song Qian was one of them, he came from Yuncheng. He was originally chosen to deliver food because of his strong body and strength, and he has always been at Lin Yan's command.
When he arrived at Wuhe City, he was appointed as the squad leader and was responsible for the city defense of Wuhe City.
Like most people, he was dissatisfied when he first met Lin Yan and didn't believe how powerful a woman could be.
But now, the person Song Qian admires the most is Lin Yan. Her mysterious movements and methods are too unpredictable, but there is no denying her strength.
Looking at the back of the horse riding in front, Song Qian clenched the spear in his hand and instantly gained courage.
What was she afraid of? She was surrounded by wolves. She once fought bravely against a pack of wolves, and they were extremely ferocious. There were twenty of them.
Besides, even if she didn't take action, as long as she watched quietly, it would be an encouragement to them.
Song Qian shouted: "Kill!"
Twenty people rode forward, slashing at the wolves. Blood splattered and the wolves howled.
Lin Yan nodded with satisfaction. Yes, this team has grown a lot after the baptism of blood.
There are about twenty wolves in the pack. Although they are tall and fierce, they have no fear. When they meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. As long as they have the courage to kill, they have no fear.
The fighting lasted for more than half an hour. Song Qian and others were all injured, but their performance was outstanding and they annihilated the wolves.
Lin Yan had been watching from the side. There was a wolf in the middle who wanted to pick on her when she was alone, but she ignored her. As soon as her mental strength came out, the wolf obediently joined the fight.
Since her mental power has reached A level, she can perform mental attacks, and with her daily practice, ordinary ferocious beasts can't do anything to her.
Lin Yan's favorite move was to control the leaves quietly and with mental power. The fragile leaves were like sharp blades, killing the enemy instantly.
People who don't know the inside story will only think that she can kill the enemy invisible without doing anything.
Such unpredictable methods are enough to make people awe.
Song Qian was one of them. He never understood how Lin Yan killed his enemies. He could only attribute it to her mystery.
At this moment, Song Qian's face was covered in blood, his clothes were in tatters, and his bones were deeply scarred, but his eyes were bright. He stood in front of Lin Yan and said excitedly: "We did it, we killed the wolves by ourselves."
He had hunted before and knew how powerful the ferocious beasts were. He never thought that one day he would be able to face a herd of beasts and win.
Lin Yan smiled and said, "I saw it. How was the injury?"
Seeing them fighting with her own eyes and everyone being injured, she endured it very hard not to help.
She took them with her just for training. She couldn't stay in Wuhe City forever. From now on, she would have to rely on them to defend the city.
Song Qian grinned and said loudly: "It's okay, just a little injury."
"Don't be brave. Go back and let the doctor take a look. You can get better quickly with the medicine." Lin Yan looked at his left arm. The skin was torn and fleshy. He had just been scratched by a wolf and the wound was deep.
Song Qian nodded.
The group disposed of the bodies, cleaned up the battlefield, and rushed back before dark.
Xu Yeshan personally waited at the city gate. When he saw them coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been paying attention to Lin Yan's movements. Seeing that Tian Heiguo hadn't come back yet, he couldn't help but worry, so he personally guarded Lin Yan.
Lin Yan had sharp eyes and saw him as soon as he entered the city. "Why are you waiting here? What's wrong?"
Xu Yeshan shook his head and saw that only Lin Yan was clean among the group. The others were all injured. He hurriedly said with concern: "We are all injured. Go to the hospital quickly. Put down the things first and I will have someone deal with them."
Lin Yan looked at Song Qian and the others and said, "Leave all your things and go to the hospital to treat the wounds."
Song Qian and others did not hesitate, unloaded the prey they carried on their horses and left.
Xu Yeshan advised: "You go and have a rest, I can stay."
Lin Yan shook his head and smiled: "I'm not injured. Is everything in the city okay?"
"Everything is fine, everything is normal." Seeing that he could not be persuaded, Xu Yeshan said no more, and instead said: "Fifteen acres of wasteland were opened today and have been surveyed and registered. More than 200 people have moved to Yuncheng, and I have given them to Arrangements have been made for their settlement.”
Since this year, people have come to settle in one after another every day. Xu Yeshan is already very familiar with the settlement process.
Since arriving in Five Rivers City, he has never thought about leaving. He decided to take root here and witness the development of this new city.
Starting from today, we are opening up wasteland every day, increasing the number of fields, and cultivating hundreds of acres of land.
Looking at the green wheat seedlings, growing day by day, gave all the confidence in the city.
Xu Yeshan personally inspects the wheat fields every day to ensure the safety of the wheat fields, which is related to the future of Wuhe City.
Lin Yan looked at him with admiration, "I feel relieved to leave these things to you. Be sure to make arrangements for the people who have moved in, and take good care of the new arrivals. They have come all the way, and they will become the children of Wuhe City from now on." We need to rely on them to develop Wuhe City."
Being recognized by Lin Yan, Xu Yeshan's confidence increased greatly, and he made up his mind to fulfill his responsibilities, settle everyone, and make Wuhe City prosper quickly.
In early May, the first hundred acres of wheat planted matured. In order to reassure the immigrants, Lin Yan decided to publicly thresh the wheat and grind it into flour in the square in the center of the city.
Wheat grows in the fields and people can see it with their own eyes, but many people don't know how to turn wheat into flour, and they still feel uneasy.
The huge square has a concrete floor and piles of wheat ears that have been drying for two days. Today is the moment to witness a miracle.
Early in the morning, people flocked in, not even bothering to have breakfast.
Xu Yeshan came earlier. He didn't sleep much last night. I watched the seeds buried in the ground grow and mature day by day.
He was completely relieved to have broadcast the wheat kernel from the ears of wheat with his own hands. But after listening to Lin Yan's words, he couldn't sit still.
She said that when the wheat ears are put into the threshing machine, clean wheat kernels will soon come out, and then the wheat kernels are put into the flour mill to become flour.
Xu Yeshan couldn't imagine what kind of process this was, let alone what a threshing machine and a flour grinder were.
There are too many people who can't figure it out like him. They open their mouths with joy just seeing those wheat ears, and they are happy every day. Just because it is food, grown by myself.
