Miao Chengsi immediately reported the matter to the Headquarters of the Slaves.

As soon as Shi Yuanji received the information, he took all the few slaves to the wasteland.

These places are short of water all year round and cannot grow food at all.

But once we have water, we only need to fertilize the land a little, and next year we will have a large area of ​​fertile farmland.

Yang Gan looked at the waterwheel and sighed, "Zhang Yumeng, look at these things, they are such a waste."

"Is there any way to store electrical energy?"

Zhang Yumeng spread his hands and said, "There is no way. Ordinary power stations use it as soon as it generates electricity. There is no storage of electricity."

Then she frowned and thought, "But I heard that our country has invented an all-vanadium flow battery. This kind of battery can store 100,000 kilowatt hours of electricity with only two carriages."

"Do you understand the principle?"

"The principle is not difficult."

"If this thing is built, then the ship will be fine."

Zhang Yumeng looked at Yang Qian with a look of despair and said weakly.

"I beg you, please don't look at me with that intelligent look. You can't figure it out even if you know the principle. I also know the principle of the atomic bomb, but I can't figure it out either."

........

Yang Qian said contemptuously, "Tch, you don't know this at all, you are too scumbag."

"Pfft~~~!"

Zhang Yumeng almost spit out his blood. Industrial things are never achieved overnight, and many technologies are interrelated.

Wherever you want to produce, just produce.

For example, in Zhuangzi now, almost all key places use electricity.

Although the foundry uses water conservancy, Ou Yexia has already talked with Zhang Yumeng about when to design a machine that they can build.

It looks very advanced, but in fact, it can't even produce gunpowder particle technology.

Once the technology tree is set too crookedly, it will be very troublesome.

Most of them have already moved forward, and some slaves will stay.

Start building the pier. Anyway, the piles have been driven, so it is very simple to build.

A road needs to be built directly to Yuntong County. In this way, the food produced in Yuntong County will be transported to the river.

Shipped from the riverside dock, and then set off towards the counties in need, an endless stream of wealth flowed into Yang Gan's pocket like water.

Yang Qian slightly arched his hands towards Shuihu and the others.

"I have accepted your advice. I have to work hard and don't let my hundreds of thousands of gold and millions of stones of food go to waste."

Shuihu said excitedly, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of the entire project."

The luggage was packed early. After Yang Qian got in the car, everyone set off towards the next destination.

Shui Hu also got into the car with Shi Huacai and set off towards the next place.

There will still be some craftsmen, soldiers and slaves left here, and it is not difficult to build the dock.

But the wharf alone is useless, we also need to build houses, warehouses and the like.

These remaining people are also responsible for building docks. After all, if there is water, there must be boats.

This has to mention Zhang Yumeng. In such a short period of time, she had already drawn the drawings.

These drawings are very strange. There is no overall structure of the ship, but only some grooves and other structures on the stern.

As long as you follow her instructions, after the motors and other electronic equipment are built, they can be directly embedded in them. Once the switch is turned on, they can be quickly transported to the destination.

Even just two or three trained people are needed to sail the boat.

This is a canal, very wide, so the boats don't need to be small ones, they are all big ships, and it doesn't feel like they can transport one or two thousand stones at a time.

But this is not the key. There have been too many places where grain and grass have been spent recently. In recent years, Yuntong County has almost lost the ability to sell large amounts of grain.

However, Yang Gan believes that this is temporary. The speed of land reclamation is very fast. Every additional acre is equivalent to five more kilos of land.

Corn, if replaced by potatoes and corn, would be a huge amount.

The number of tenant farmers in Zhuangzi is comparable to that of the entire Yuntong.

It is almost impossible for everyone to be allocated enough farmland.

So everyone is plowing intensively to increase production, and now we finally have water.

With water and fertilizer, it means we have fertile farmland. If we have fertile farmland, are we still worried about not having food?

If a tenant farmer cultivates ten acres of land carefully, the yield of corn will be 4 to 5 shi.

Even if it is four stones, ten acres is forty stones. Due to climate problems, if you are lucky, it is very possible to achieve two crops a year.

This means that a prime man can earn eighty shi of grain a year, which translates into 9,600 kilograms.

After paying 30% of the rent, there are still 6,720 kilograms left. Counting his family of four, each person consumes three kilograms of grain daily, which is 12 kilograms a day.

At the end of a year, it is only 4,380 kilograms, with a balance of 2,340 kilograms of grain. As for selling it or feeding it to animals, it doesn't matter. Life is definitely not bad anyway.

Even if you remove 1,000 kilograms of grain and replace it with vegetables and complementary foods, you will still have a balance of 1,340 kilograms, which is a huge amount.

When Yang Qian didn't come to Yuntong, it would be good if he could still have enough to eat after paying the rent every year. Want to make a balance? I want to eat shit.

For a period of time, Yang Gan also had a headache. 5,000 hectares of land, which is 500,000 acres, seemed like a lot, but it was not an easy task to distribute it among more than ten or two hundred thousand people.

So many people have been assigned to raise livestock. What else would they do?

We can’t even reach three acres of land per capita. Now it’s better, so we don’t have to worry about it anymore.

Once wasteland is reclaimed and fattened, the amount of fertile farmland will slowly increase.

If one day it can reach 100,000 hectares, then after paying taxes every quarter, I can still get nearly 10 million dan of food.

It's just a matter of making money.

As the weather gradually became hotter, saltpeter was used to make ice inside the carriage, and small fans were attached to the wheels to constantly blow the cold air.

Yang Gan, who was reviewing official documents, had already put on his headphones and fell asleep.

Such a huge amount of work, the required materials, money, food and manpower, almost overwhelmed Yang Gan.

The shoulders that are not broad bear the life and death of nearly two million people.

Two thick dark circles quietly and unknowingly appeared on Yang Qian's cheeks.

Zhang Yumeng covered Yang Qian's body with a piece of gauze clothing.

Her face was full of distress, and she understood that no matter how hard she was, no matter how tired she was, she could not compare to one percent of Yang Gan.

Yang Gan shouldered almost all the pressure.

It seems simple, but the powerful relationship between it is very troublesome.

It was extremely headache-inducing. Yang Qian was already growing older. Not only was he sleepy, he also ate too much.

In just a few days of stay, Yang Gan probably slept for less than twenty hours, and the corners of his mouth were blistered with worry.

The original plan was to go to the road construction site to raise troops to investigate the crime. Unexpectedly, not long after setting off, the official document was delivered.

Xiao Yu held the official document, but was stopped by Zhang Yumeng.

"Is it important?"

Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, "It doesn't matter, I have to go there anyway."

Zhang Yumeng left the official document on the table and said distressedly, "Forget it, let him have a good sleep. It's been a long time since I saw him sleeping so soundly."

"Okay, but when you get up, show him, otherwise Lu Liangjun, who built the road, will be scolded."

Zhang Yumeng gave her an OK gesture, then held the cigarette in her mouth without stopping.

"Hey, hey, let's start quickly. The three of diamonds is here with me. I'll go first, a pair of three."

"So small, one to four."

"A pair of sevens."

"A pair of waiters."

"Damn it, why don't you try so hard?"

"Yes, once such a big card comes out,

Just throw it away, what a waste. "

"don't want."

"Pass!!!"

Mu Qing slowly took out a stack of cards from his hand, "345678910JQK, straight."

.......

"I can't afford it."

"I've been there."

"One two."

"A king."

"Don't you all want a bomb?"

.......

The corners of Zhang Yumeng's mouth twitched fiercely. She really wanted to slap herself twice. Mu Qing was simply invincible.

Seeing Xiao Yu still standing next to him, Zhang Yumeng pushed her.

"Don't stand next to me, go, go, go play for a while, and I'll give it to Yang later."

"Remember to give it."

"I know...I have the best number this time, I'll shuffle the cards."

Zhang Yumeng flicked the ashes from her cigarette with a smile on her face. Her poker skills were relatively rubbish, but her quality was pretty good.

Unlike in the previous life, many people felt worse when they lost at cards than when their parents died.

Time passed, and a few days later, everyone appeared on a wide avenue.

These days, Zhang Yumeng has long been tired of playing cards.

Leaning against the car window, looking out the window, he turned to look at a group of women Yingying Yanyan playing cards and mahjong, and said disdainfully.

"Tch, what a childish, stupid Earthling."

Yang Qian had already processed the official documents.

Unexpectedly, in ancient times, building roads was more difficult than digging canals, which required a lot of manpower and material resources.

After all, there are some waterways and water veins that need to be connected. They are all recorded on the map, and you can tell at a glance.

But it would be troublesome to build a road. First of all, it would be inconvenient to go east from Yuntong.

It was really a wild area, and the land might not be developed. It wasn't that they didn't want to go, but that there weren't enough people there. After years of fighting, the number of people had been maintained at a fixed number.

Goguryeo is not peaceful either. There are Haoqiu in the northeast and Samhan in the east. They are powerful, but they are only a dozen every few years.

When the Three Hans gather together, you can beat them up, but if Goguryeo wants to destroy them, it will not be an easy task.

Therefore, the two sides have no contact with each other and have almost no understanding of the vast land in between.

I don’t even know what the geological strata are.

Lu Liangjun was dumbfounded as soon as he got down to the grassroots level, but the military order had already been issued, so what should be done?

Large numbers of people could only be sent out to draw maps and explore geology.

Rivers, mountains, and woods need to be drawn with extremely precise proportions.

There are all kinds of things, and it took me more than half a year to get them done.

We didn’t stop building roads, we built them as we wanted, and we were able to accumulate materials at the same time.

When all the geological exploration is completed, the speed of road construction increases instantly.
