Qi Lichen did not leave Chengzhou in a hurry.

On the one hand, they have to wait for news, and on the other hand, because the prime minister's people are also staying here, not knowing what they are plotting.

News soon came from King Mujun's eyeliner.

Bai Ze was a little pity, "I didn't expect that he was not in a hurry, otherwise we would have borrowed a knife to kill someone." ”

"I never thought I could borrow a knife to kill someone." Qi Lichen sneered, the people who mingled in the officialdom were all old foxes, how could they do it so easily?

What he wants to do is to separate the two.

And after King Mu Jun heard the news, he was not completely inactive, he thought that all the news he got did not completely allow him to find the treasure, and he still had to rely on the prime minister's people, so his people would bite the prime minister tightly.

The prime minister is not a vegetarian, he will definitely be aware of it, and he will definitely know that King Mu Jun has become suspicious of him, and when the time comes, he will definitely see the wonderful situation of dog eat dog.

Now he can't be in a hurry, although he is already in a hurry, and he can't wait to go back to see Xi Duyun, want to see her eyebrows, want to know that she is okay.

Thoughts continue to ferment in my heart.

But the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to hesitate and fail.

I can only calm down and wait slowly.

The letters were sent back one by one.

Xi Duyun knew that he was okay, so she was relieved, Qi Lichen was at ease to do his own business, and he naturally couldn't be left behind, she dreamed of one day being able to stand side by side with the dignified Pavilion Master of Qingyu Pavilion and stand by his side on an equal footing.

She didn't want to be a canary, modern education made her understand that in love, equality is the most important.

Zhou Zheng quickly finished all the parts, assembled them according to the drawings, and made a simple pump.

The cost required is also not high.

When she was done, she immediately had a carriage drawn and sent to the village.

The village chief had never seen anything like this before, and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”

Xi Duyun didn't use it either, but fortunately there was that drawing, and the pipes were also made of thin iron sheets, divided into countless sections, and the assembled climates could be connected together piece by piece.

"Let's try it first." Xi Duyun said with a smile.

Fortunately, there is a river below the village, and the depth is okay, and the continuous flow of water allows the water wheel pump to work uninterruptedly.

Not long after the pipe was connected, the water flowed down the mountain to the mountain.

When the village chief saw this scene, his eyes were about to pop out, "This ...... How is this done? ”

Xi Duyun just wanted to explain, but she also knew that it was useless to explain, and the village chief might not be able to understand it, and she didn't understand the principle very well.

"Just be useful." Xi Duyun said with a smile.

It's not time to irrigate the farmland yet, so this thing can't be used for the time being, and if it is put in water, it will rust sooner or later, so Xi Duyun asked people to get the pump out.

When the village chief looked at it, he was anxious, "Isn't this thing still good?" ”

Xi Duyun knew that the village chief saw that this thing was easy to use, and when he saw that he had taken it away, he was a little anxious.

She explained: "It's not that it's not allowed to be used, it's that it's not necessary to use it yet, many of the parts in it are made of iron, and it's easy to rust when it's put in the water for a long time, so let's put it in when it's needed, and then open up the land next year, and then dig a canal around the village, so that the water can be drained over, and next year we will plant rice. "315 Chinese Net

The village chief was a little relieved, such a useful thing can indeed bring a lot of convenience to the village in the future, and you can plant rice next year, and if you grow food, you don't have to worry about melons, fruits and vegetables will rot in the ground.

Grain can be stored for a long time, and farmers can divide a large area of land to grow grain, leaving only a little bit, and planting a little melon, fruit and vegetable enough to eat at home.

Xi Duyun looked around again, and saw a large orchard of Li Hua's family, and he had never asked what the yield of this orchard was before, and now he couldn't see anything in winter, so he asked the village chief, "How much fruit can this orchard harvest in autumn?" ”

"It's only a few hundred pounds." The village chief estimated it.

This is still an approximate number, not counting those eaten by birds and bitten by insects.

In this way, there is not much in fact.

"Such a large orchard is only a few hundred catties?" Xi Duyun really didn't expect that the output would be so low.

"Yes, it is not easy for plum flowers, one person takes care of such a large orchard, weeding and insect control, tired enough to choke, sometimes there is a shortage of water, and you have to carry water from the bottom of the mountain to water the fruit trees." The village chief sighed.

Xi Duyun nodded, "It's hard work, the yield is still so low." ”

She remembered that grafting technology could make fruit trees better, and it wasn't difficult, but she had to go back and study how to improve yields.

It may also be possible to improve the fruit trees and produce new and better varieties.

The village chief smiled, "Fortunately, I can maintain a normal life, these fruit trees have been around for more than ten years, doesn't the girl want people to pull out these fruit trees?" ”

"Not really." Xi Duyun immediately said, "After tea and dinner, I also want to eat a fruit to satisfy my cravings." ”

The village chief nodded, "This orchard also needs to supply your Sugar Heart Pavilion." ”

Xi Duyun looked at the orchard thoughtfully, and already had some thoughts in her heart.

The matter here is solved, but she has promised something she doesn't know, she still has no clue, where to find the volcanic ash?

To build a river embankment, cement is the best.

Ask around to see if anyone knows where a volcano once erupted.

Some people said that near Chengzhou, there is a volcano that erupted 80 years ago.

At that time, magma almost flooded a village.

When Xi Duyun heard about it, he planned to go to Chengzhou to see if it was a volcano or not, and whether the volcanic ash there could be used.

She is an introverted child and is more sensitive, she is the only one who is a relative, and she can see her every day, if she goes to Chengzhou, it may take several days to come and go.

Now the carriage is too slow, if it is placed in modern times, a high-speed train can be completed in a few hours.

Cuiyun was also a little uneasy, after all, Xi Muyun was a woman's family, and it was not convenient to go far away, and he had not told Qi Lichen in advance.

Xu didn't know and was embarrassed, it was a little embarrassing for her to ask Xi Duyun for such a thing, and now she had to go out to see if the thing there was volcanic ash, it would be too embarrassing.

Xi Duyun didn't care, smiled and said: "Anyway, business is not easy to do now, it's not bad to go out for a walk, besides, since I came here, there are only a few places to go, maybe the scenery is good." ”

Xu didn't know how to say anything, nodded and said, "Then I'll send you over." ”

"No need, I have Bai Bing by my side, his martial arts are good, he can protect me." Xi Duyun said.

It's not bad to go out for a walk, maybe you can find more business opportunities, and Qi Lichen seems to be still there now, I don't know if I can see him, but don't tell him, if Qi Lichen's whereabouts are exposed, it won't be good, it's not easy to have the current situation, but you have to maintain it well.

After arranging everything, the business in the store was also arranged, and it was carried out as usual, and handed over to those employees in Nancun, she was also relieved that these people facing the loess with their backs to the sky were very simple.
