Li Zhao pondered for a moment and thought of explosives.
"For the time being, everyone will continue forging according to the original plan."
"yes!"
"By the way, go back early tonight. I won't allow anyone to work here after a quarter of an hour!"
"ah?"
"Ah what? Today is a happy day for everyone. Why don't you go back and stay here? Go away!" Li Zhao urged the people to drive away.
After leaving the camp, Xiao Hong immediately helped Li Zhao hold the lamp.
Sitting on the chair, Li Zhao took a pen, pondered for a long time, and began to write down his recent plans.
A good memory is not as good as a bad writing. Sometimes when there are too many things, small things will be forgotten.
Although it is not fatal, it is still very annoying to lose the chain at the critical moment.
With the gradual development, the demand for iron ore and stone is gradually increasing.
Therefore, mining is the first big problem to be faced.
The mining conditions in this era are very limited, and whether the safety of personnel can be guaranteed is also a problem that Li Zhao needs to worry about.
If gunpowder could be produced, it might be of great help.
Li Zhao wrote down many things and slowly revised and explored them.
Land reclamation is a big deal. If we can make good use of the period before the spring of next year, even if the harvest of the first wave of land is poor, it will not be a loss.
It was late at night when we were so busy. Wu Diao Si came in and urged: "Your Highness, it's time to rest."
"Okay!" Li Zhao put down his work.
During these three days, Li Zhao mainly received guests from afar.
These distinguished customers came to place orders and were Li Zhao's big employers.
Although the price of Quyuan plow is ridiculously high, these big families don't feel sorry for it at all.
Anyone who has seen Qu Yuuli's power will not object.
Therefore, Li Zhao's face was almost frozen with laughter in the past three days.
There are so many people coming and going that it is inevitable to greet them with smiles.
He couldn't leave this matter to others, otherwise, these aristocratic families would feel that Li Zhao had neglected them and caused unnecessary trouble.
Some rules still need to be followed.
If someone formally handed over the greeting card and his status was not low, Li Zhao, the host, had to receive it in person.
After working more tiring than visiting a brothel for three days, Li Zhao really didn't want to make this money anymore.
Three days later.
Li Zhao got up. He finally no longer had to receive distinguished guests.
Even if someone comes, they will first suppress them and then focus on receiving them.
Dang Dang Dang——
In the early morning, the mist has not dissipated, and the whole world seems to be shrouded in a veil.
But all the villagers had gotten up and came to Prince You's Mansion.
Because the tools in Prince You's Mansion are limited, these people have to bring their own tools.
Li Zhao yawned and walked out, looked at the huge sea of people, and said: "The next person whose name is called will come out. You will be the person in charge, and then you will be responsible for the command!"
"Qian Ergou!"
"Zhao Tiezhu!"
"Li Heiwa!"
"Liu Fugui!"
"Dragon Three Tigers!"
"..."
People who performed very well were called out.
They looked excited, like primary school students who had been rewarded with a little red flower, standing up under the envious eyes of countless people.
"You are the captains of each team! Everyone in your team is at your disposal!"
Li Zhao began to make overall plans: "Today's main task is to dig out an irrigation channel. The person in charge is Zhao Tiezhu. The water truck has been installed. Zhao Tiezhu is also responsible for the water diversion work."
"Yes!" Zhao Tiezhu's voice was very loud, and they were very excited.
This is not free work, work can get land.
"Qian Ergou and your team are responsible for cleaning up all the large and small stones, weeds, and debris on the enclosed ground." Li Zhao added: "If it is stones, no matter how big or small, they will all be transported to the stone area. The stones will be of great use in the future! As for the weeds, trees and shrubs, harvest them all and put them in the designated place to dry in the sun. Then the kitchen can take them away for cooking. "
"yes!"
"..."
Li Zhao took the manuscript he had prepared and assigned tasks one by one.
First of all, he must ensure that people cannot run around, secondly, he must ensure that everyone has something to do, and most importantly, he must pay attention to efficiency.
If left to their own devices, they may not see results for a day.
The cost of land reclamation is extremely high and beyond the reach of ordinary people, and the first year is also the most difficult.
Generally speaking, the yield of land cultivated on the first day of land reclamation is extremely low, and even the seeds cannot be harvested. It must be cultivated continuously for many years.
In other words, in the past few years, there was only input but no output. In this era of having one meal but no next meal, even if you have mature land for farming, you will still be hungry if you are not careful. Who dares to take the risk of spending several years? Running a new land?
The most important thing is that they have no power.
Even if the land is successfully reclaimed after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and goes to the government to register, the probability of obtaining the land title is still ridiculously low.
Most of the tax revenue of the feudal dynasty came from land. As long as you had land, you had to pay the royal grain, and the government did not allow the poor to reclaim wasteland.
To sum up, it is a joke that there is no powerful person like Li Zhao to take the lead in opening up wasteland.
It also takes a lot of time to open up wasteland, and the work is all strenuous work. How can you work if you don't have enough to eat?
Only Li Zhao has the ability and courage to support them.
In the river area, Long Xuewang is responsible for supervising the work.
After the waterwheels were installed, the waterwheels finally began to roll under the impact of the water flow.
The diversion canal is dug deeper and lower to facilitate the storage of more water.
Otherwise, when the water in the diversion channel becomes small, it will be swallowed up by the soil of the ditch before it reaches its destination.
The ditch in the previous section must be in a high-low position. Only in this way can the water wash away quickly.
Everyone was sweating profusely even though it was only morning.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Long Xuewang himself was urging, carrying a hoe.
The soil near the river is relatively soft, but elsewhere the soil is very hard.
There are dedicated water-carrying brigade members who are responsible for pouring water on the ground to be excavated.
There is a line drawn with lime on the surface of the wasteland. After the dry and hard soil is soaked, it will be much better to dig again.
Work started everywhere at the same time, and with the large number of people, the speed was not very slow.
If the stones all over the ground are not cleared, it will be impossible to open up wasteland. These stones will also cause serious wear and tear on the hoes and the subsequent curved shaft plows that will be used in the fields.
No matter how big or small the stone is, it must be removed.
Li Zhao plans to save these stones for building ditches, paving roads, and cleaning the river to build embankments in the coming year.
In line with the principle of saving when you can, it feels bad to always spend money on purchases.
The weeds everywhere are withered and yellow. If they are not located across the planned field area, the saplings growing on the ground do not need to be cut down.
These grasses have almost no moisture. If they are exposed to the sun, they can form new haystacks, which can be used directly to make fires.
The roots of plants require a pick and a hoe to dig out. These roots are also rare materials for making fire after being exposed to the sun.
