Chapter Seventy-Six: The Lake
There is no river flowing near Yuancheng.
Although the river is only about six meters wide, the water quality is excellent, and the speed of the river is fast enough, and it seems that the water volume is relatively abundant.
The water source used by Yuancheng's current crops is still the groundwater that farmers have channeled from the depths of the ground little by little.
As a result of irrigating crops in this way, the burden on farmers increases. Moreover, because of the limitations of their level, the quality and quantity of groundwater that they guide for irrigation are also lacking.
Qin Lan also used his consciousness to go deep into the underground of Yuan City to investigate.
Because of the special geology under Yuancheng, the water source under Yuancheng is not very rich.
And the water quality is not excellent, but it can only ensure the most basic needs.
The water that the residents drink on weekdays is also based on the few old wells left by their predecessors. After all, the groundwater level in Yuancheng is very deep, and if you want to dig a well at such a deep point, only a craftsman with very high skill can do it.
Not only is it technically sophisticated, because the water level is very deep, and the current is also obscure, and only people who have reached a certain level of well-informed level can accurately detect the specific location of the undercurrent. People who are a little less proficient can only vaguely perceive the general direction.
With such a limitation, it costs a lot of silver coins to drill a well in Yuan City that can be used for people to get water. Some undercurrent locations are extremely difficult to drill wells, and the amount of silver required to drill a well in such a place would be huge.
It's not just the silver coins that are a problem, but the innate limitation of the lack of groundwater makes it rare to be able to drill wells. Yuancheng's current main business, the dyes used to dye cloth in the textile industry, also need water resources.
Therefore, Yuancheng's current water resources are indeed not abundant.
This is also a problem that still needs to be solved, and the yield of crops has also been affected in many ways, and the residents are also struggling to get water.
Qin Lan secretly pondered to himself, this river was two kilometers away from Yuancheng.
Although it is only six meters wide, the amount of water is not bad, and if it can be easily accessed by Yuancheng, it can greatly alleviate the problem of water shortage. And the water quality is also better than the water quality of the undercurrents deep underground, and the crop yield can be washed up a little higher.
After all, the scale of Yuancheng is still very small now, and this river is completely sufficient.
"Two kilometers......
Qin Lan made some trade-offs in his heart, although it was also a very big project to change the course of the river, it was still a simple trade-off. Qin Lan judged that it was necessary to enrich the water resources of Yuancheng, and now the water resources were only in a very reluctant state, and if they developed in the future, the water resources of Yuancheng would one day become a constraint on Yuancheng.
If you think about it this way, it becomes necessary to change the course of the river......
Backed by mountains and rocks, although this point allows Yuancheng to obtain more security, the restrictions on development are also obvious. Yuancheng can't be built on mountain rocks, right?
After deciding this, Qin Lan wanted to go to the source of the river to take a look.
Of course, if it's too far, you can only give up for the time being.
"Parking. ”
Qin Lan ordered.
Luo Sheng and the others all gathered.
"Where is the source of that river?"
Qin Lan asked this, and he didn't really expect them to give an answer.
After thinking for a while, Luo Sheng's expression suddenly brightened: "I remember, the source of this river seems to be a lake?"
"Yes, it's quite close, it seems to be a kilometer away!" Tian Yu also said.
"Lakes?"
Qin Lan's eyes lit up, the lake is a good thing!
This rare and superb natural resource is so close to Yuancheng?
Why hadn't he heard about it before?
Lakes are a treasure, big or small!
Whether it is the development of fishing, pearl industry, or tourism......
All of them are good things that can drive the economic development of a city!
And Qin Lan remembers that one of the points that affects the development index is natural resources!
If you can take the lake into your hands, it will be an inexhaustible treasure of soul power.
In an instant, Qin Lan made up her mind to take the lake into her arms!
"The lake is in the upper reaches of the river, right?" Qin Lan said in his heart, and then ordered Luo Sheng, "Change the route and go along the upper reaches of the river!" ”
Is Jojin-sama interested in that lake?
Luo Sheng also knew that the natural resource of the lake was rare, and the city god was interested, so it couldn't be better.
However, another person reminded, "Lord Jogami, if you follow the river, you will go deep into the jungle and reach the area where the crystal beast is active. And in that lake, there are also a lot of crystal beasts inhabiting it......"
There was a look of fear on everyone's faces.
Luo Sheng explained: "Lord City God, when the Jiang and Wei families were here before, their private army served as a guard, and when they encountered a small number of crystal beasts, they could still deal with ......."
The implication is that there are concerns about the current combat power of the team.
Before leaving, Luo Sheng and others also asked Liu Yunding to bring the collapse crossbow purchased by Jiang and Wei, hoping to have a certain self-defense effect.
But at this time, it was still a little abrupt to let them go to the jungle infested with crystal beasts by themselves.
"It doesn't matter. ”
Qin Lan said: "A few of them were originally beast hunters. ”
Seeing this, several members of the Tomb Tooth team felt that their opportunity to perform had come, and immediately patted their chests, looking very reliable.
Luo Sheng and the others suddenly became stunned, they were still wondering why Lord City God didn't let the City God Army come to escort the convoy. It's really unseemly, Brother Hu and they are so simple, I didn't expect it to be a beast hunting team......
With the presence of guards, they don't mean much.
The convoy was back on the road.
Hu Fan and the others are extremely confident, even if they are guarding such a large convoy, they don't have the slightest worry.
Because, before leaving, Qin Lan provided a pair of divine armor for several of them, each of them!
At the beginning, the powerful ability obtained by the City God Army wearing the Divine Xuan Armor, Hu Fan and the others still remember it as fresh as ever.
So when Qin Lan took out the Divine Xuan Armor in front of them and told them that it was for them, Hu Fan and the others almost jumped up excitedly.
For orc hunters, they know best what a good set of gear means.
After obtaining the Divine Xuanjia, each of them had a glint of excitement in their eyes, and they couldn't put it down, like a child who had finally bought a favorite toy.
However, Qin Lan did not allow them to put it on immediately, because the only place available for them to train was the former site of the original Jiang Wei family. As we approached departure, there was no time for them to vent their excitement.
So, he put the Shenxuan armor in the storage cabinet of the carriage and set off in a peaceful mood.
Before this, Qin Lan also informed them a little more.
is that without Shen Xuan Gong as a foundation, the effect of Shen Xuan Jia will be greatly reduced.
The basic blessings on physical fitness will be reduced, and the most important is the moves of the Divine Xuangong. If you want to fully exert the power of the Divine Xuanjia, the moves of the Divine Xuangong are indispensable.
Several members of the Tomb Tooth Team didn't have time to cultivate, so Qin Lan also told them not to think about having the effect of the City God Army wearing the Divine Xuan Armor in a short period of time.
It was precisely because he had given the Tomb Tooth Squad Divine Xuanjia in advance that Qin Lan now also had the confidence to go to the lake.
