42.chapter 42
After the meeting, Sun Xiuqing took advantage of the crowd to walk away, sighed to Ma Yi and said, "I just combed through it like this, and I found that we really lack a lot of things!" Those potato chips, melon seeds, pickled pepper wind claws, spicy duck neck, sauce elbow or something, let's eat it next time, send something more useful first. ”
Ma Yi puffed out her mouth, but nodded.
The two of them buried their heads in searching for supplies that might be needed and made a list.
The food, although not delicate here, at least will not make people hungry. Buy only a small bag of rice, as well as oil, salt, sweet and sour sauces, and specialty sauces like Korean bibimbap sauce. Bibimbap or something, when the time comes, Sun Xiuqing will show her skills and cook it herself.
The people from the smelting and casting city brought some tools more or less, and they originally made axes, long knives, hoes, shovels, which were available, and later in order to cut wood and make bows and arrows, Sun Xiuqing taught them to make saws, planers, chisels, hammers, etc., although the number is not much, let's make do with it first.
But with their current process, some simple and practical things have not been made, so they simply send some over, which can be used first, or let them refer to and make zuò later. For example, scissors, Swiss Army knives, military shovels, screwdrivers, etc., do not occupy a particularly large volume, and they are bought ten of the same. Screws and ordinary nails, I also bought a few boxes, maybe the mortise and tenon structure of Chinese furniture is more suitable for this era, but occasionally I want to be lazy, let's spare it first.
Field work, survival whistle is particularly necessary, in the event of an accident, let the companions rush to the kuài, buy more of this, a hundred.
Candles, it's just too lacking, okay? One hundred. Flashlights also buy a few.
The medical kit, although I received a box of medicine last time, was basically used up in the Smelting City, so I still have to focus on preparation. People here are often bitten and scratched by wild beasts, and the experience of stitching with animal bone needles is really enough, or special materials are better, but this kind of thing is still very difficult to find on the Internet, and after asking for help from the liaison assistant, I got a link, and I found that there are all kinds of drugs available, judging from some commonly used drugs that Sun Xiuqing is familiar with, the price is not outrageous, and the price of the era in which she lived before is about the same. I first bought a batch of trauma medicines, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, painkillers and hemostatic drugs, gauze, bandages, sterilized cotton, scalpels and other surgical instruments.
When she wanted to continue buying, the liaison assistant sent a reminder: "Master, you only have one cubic meter of space, and now these things are almost." ”
Sun Xiuqing frowned: "Before you sent it, except for the drug instructions, all the outer packaging of everything else was removed. ”
"Okay, then, you go ahead."
The liaison assistant gave her a percentage of the space margin, and after removing the packaging, there was more than double the space, Sun Xiuqing browsed the list of materials, oops, she almost forgot the most important thing! Seed!
It seems that the sowing is a little late this season, but it is better to be late than never, although there are also some crops that have already been sown in Guanlong City. Sun Xiuqing has learned that it is basically some corn and vegetables, and the annual harvest is also left to fate. How's that going to work? I bought two bags of rice and two bags of wheat seeds, although it almost filled the remaining space, but it was necessary, and the livelihood of the whole year was in these four bags of seeds.
The other vegetable seeds are really mini, and they can't be compared with rice and wheat, so I picked a few each.
Forget the math, it's almost full. It's just almost, so squeeze it again, Sun Xiuqing bought a mini package of facial cleanser, lotion and shampoo, and can I stuff two more masks? God knows how long it's been since she's taken good care of her skin, and now it's so rough!
At this point, a cubic meter of space really can't be stuffed with any superfluous items. The liaison assistant begged for mercy: "Enough is enough, master!" You'll have a chance next month. ”
Sun Xiuqing reluctantly stopped, confirmed the order, paid the money, and said, "Arrange delivery." ”
"No, where are you going to ship the goods? Guanlongcheng? ”
The liaison assistant replied: "As I said before, the delivery location is different each time, and it will arrive after half a month, and you will be notified of the pickup location at that time." ”
All right. Even though I received the medicine once, it still felt a little unreal. Hopefully, her mask will travel back in time to help her soak up her recently dry and rough skin.
After placing an order, first go to the land designated by the developer and divide the territory for each group.
There are dozens of land beasts in Guanlong City, and these beasts were originally tamed and exchanged for warriors from other cities. Ma Yi recently decided to leave some for her own use. It was decided to build a new city, and the transportation between the two cities could be handled by these behemoths.
Mayi's younger sister is named Su Li, and the taciturn girl looks even more stunned after agreeing to help them take care of the giant beast in charge of transportation. Sun Xiuqing quietly asked Ma Yi if she was particularly unhappy, and if she really didn't want to, she didn't have to force it...... Ma Yi said: It's okay, she's like this, if she doesn't want to, she won't agree at all. Sun Xiuqing believed it suspiciously.
When they arrived at this place, where a new city was about to be built, the boundaries of each team were divided according to what had been discussed. The area next to the mine was used for the construction of the factory, located downstream of the river. Residential and farmland areas upstream are adjacent and are located on either side of the river. On the river, a simple wooden bridge is built with trees to facilitate access.
Fortifications are a big problem. The view here is wide, the land is relatively flat as far as the eye can see, the mines, the high mountains where the main city is located, and the surrounding mountains are all very far from each other, and there is no natural barrier, so it is inevitable that wild beasts will be infested on a regular basis.
It would be too much effort to build a fence in such a wide area. Sun Xiuqing thought of the national parks she had seen in the animal world, and the perimeter was surrounded by electrified barbed wire, which was actually very convenient. It's just that they don't have that much barbed wire and no electricity now......
This matter is so troublesome, it just so happened that A-Ying brought the women over to ask about farming, and Sun Xiuqing forgot about it as soon as she greeted them.
Building houses, iron-making furnaces or something, the men in the smelting and casting city have some experience, and the ones in Sun Xiuqing's mobile phone may not have much effect on them, so these things are distributed, and she lets the men play on their own. But regarding farming, she had greeted A-Ying in advance, and she must discuss it.
Sun Xiuqing didn't want to rely on the sky to eat. There are so many vast, fertile lands vacant, she must plant them! But before sowing, the reclamation of the land is also a heavy job. Sun Xiuqing had never done anything before, but no matter what, her experience was much better than that of primitive people who only knew how to dig a pit in the ground and bury a seed. At the very least, she probably knew that she should plough the land before sowing seeds.
Speaking of which, more than a dozen women each have a small hoe, and when will they have to dig in the face of such a large land? Sun Xiuqing suddenly realized that she had just bought so many seeds with a wave of her hand, I was afraid that she would not be able to plant them......
You have to figure it out.
How nice it would be if there was an excavator, no, what about that thing? The machine of ploughing the field qì. Slip around the ground and the ground will be turned in order. Before the invention of the professional farming machine, in the 5,000-year-old Chinese civilization, there was also a primitive tool for cultivating the land, called the plow. The oxen pulled in front, and the old man waved a whip in one hand and a plough in the other.
But even if it's a plow, you have to have it! Sun Xiuqing found that she had an empty stomach for the grand blueprint, but she lost to the skinny reality. No way, it's useless to find cattle without a plow, let's dig with a hoe first! Fortunately, the land that has never been cultivated is very fluffy, so you can remove the plants growing on its surface, turn the soil lightly, and level it a little. After a long afternoon, the results were much better than expected.
Sun Xiuqing belonged to the type of mouth but not hand, watching from the sidelines, directing everyone to divide the turned land into neat pieces of land in a certain size, and there were paths left between the fields for people to walk, which was convenient for future cultivation and watering.
Because the seeds still have more than ten days to arrive, according to this progress, it should be about the same for a dozen people to manually open a hundred acres of land in fifteen days, right? When the time comes, divide half of the paddy field and half of the dry land, and sow different crops respectively, Sun Xiuqing can already imagine what the green seedlings will look like here in a few months! It's still a bit motivating to think about it!
Ah Qiu led the hunting team, and the children went to the forest to look for fruit, and they all came back at noon. I found a clearing, lit a dozen fires, barbecued the scene BBQ, after all, there were knives to deal with the fish and meat that I had hunted and fished, and there were a lot of salt and other simple plant condiments that came with me, and eating with these people was much better than eating with the guys in Treehouse Village.
During the meal, Ah Qiu seemed very excited and shouted: "There are so many good things in this forest, I want everyone to get more of them!" ”
Get so much, they don't have a good way to store, and it's also a waste. Sun Xiuqing hurriedly said: "No need, Ah Qiu, you can observe how much we all eat at noon, and the things we get at one time are enough for us to eat for a day or two!" If you have a surplus of manpower, you can share some to help others, and we will strive to build our homes as soon as possible. ”
Since Sun Xiuqing saved Ah Qiu's grandfather, what she said was Ah Qiu's holy decree! Although he wanted to show off his ability, Ah Qiu nodded without hesitation.
There are the most people to build houses and factories, and there is a lot of strength, as long as the house is built first, and there is a place to live, there is no need to go back and forth to Guanlong City every day. And once the ironworks are built, they can start production. Not to mention what to exchange with other people, there are many things that need to be made for themselves.
But after eating, Sun Xiuqing followed Ah Qiang and Ah Wu to see their results, but he felt slightly inappropriate.
