Under his promotion, whether it is the construction of Shuangfeng Village, or the repair of iron-making furnaces in Dongye Town, or the mining work of various mining sites, it can be said that there has been a great improvement, and various projects have begun to be in full swing.

And after this trip, Fan Yutong has always followed Xiao Tianjian's side, seeing and remembering everything Xiao Tianjian has done in her eyes and in her heart, she can't help but admire Xiao Tianjian even more.

Fan Yutong looked at what Xiao Tianjian had been doing these days, so he no longer doubted that Xiao Tianjian was an ambitious person, and he was also a very capable person.

And now he occupies such a place in the south of Yangcheng County, if this person can't achieve a career in the future, then she Fan Yutong won't believe anything.

In this way, it also strengthened her idea of lobbying her father Fan Yaoshan and secretly cooperating with Xiao Tianjian, and planned to write another letter after returning to Lotus Village, explaining the necessity of cooperation between the Fan family and Xingtianjun to her father Fan Yaoshan, and striving to dispel Fan Yaoshan's doubts and make him start contacting Xingtianjun as soon as possible.

Xiao Tianjian took Fan Yutong back to Lotus Village on the way, and then stopped in Dongye Town for a short time, and saw that in just a few days, the old furnace head took a group of craftsmen to re-pack and repair two small and medium-sized iron furnaces, and immediately put into feeding, began to make iron, and he was taking some of his subordinates to inspect a large abandoned iron furnace in Dongye Town, and took out the waste slag in the iron furnace, and began to repair, it is estimated that it will not take a few days, this large iron-making furnace can also be put into use again, in order to help the old furnace repair the iron-making furnace, Xiao Tianjian also ordered a few stonemasons, masons, carpenters, and leathermen to come over to help the old stove, which made the old stove's work even more like a fish in water, and it was much more brisk.

And a group of people transferred from the miners have also settled here, anyway, there are more abandoned houses in Dongye Town, just clean up, settle these people, there is no problem at all, even if it is very cold in winter, there is enough coal here for them to burn the fire for warmth, frostbite does not hurt people, and these original miners, more or less, also know some iron-making skills, change to iron-making, naturally there will be no problem, so there will be no shortage of manpower in Dongye Town in a short time, and the amount of iron produced after the year will be greatly increased, is to be expected.

Look at this, Xiao Tianjian turned to Shuangfeng Village again, Zhang Chao's action is also very fast, in addition to the things in the village did not stop, the construction of the wall and the gate of the village has also begun to unfold, in addition to the existing craftsmen of the Xingtian Army, the local craftsmen have also been sent here, to participate in the project, and the surrounding people who are now in the slack season do not want to be hungry in the winter of the cats, under the cold weather, I heard about the recruitment of the Xingtian Army, and they have also brought shovels, pickaxes, flat poles, baskets, Bamboo baskets and other tools gathered here in Shuangfeng Village, and were put into the work of building a wall for Shuangfeng Village, and in a short period of time, as many as three or four thousand people were gathered.

These people do splints to make splints, quarrying for quarrying, and excavation for excavation, which are uniformly dispatched by Lin Baotian, and Zhang Chao supports and helps him behind his back, so that the progress of the project seems to be pretty good now.

And these people who came to help, one is grateful to the Xingtianjun for helping them in addition to the big harm, the second is grateful to the Xingtianjun for giving them the land and land, and the third is because they come here to work, they can give two full meals a day, even if they don't have the wages to get it, this year's energy saving to eat two full meals is also a good choice for these people, and even more on the Xingtianjun said, if the official army comes to suppress it in the future, the people don't want to suffer the scourge of the official army, and they can also avoid the Shuangfeng Village, so what else do the people have to say? But all the strong laborers have basically come to Shuangfeng Village to help, and even some healthy women have brought things to help, so that there is basically no shortage of engineering labor, and there is even a surplus.

The elderly, children, and old ladies were all in front of the village, in the thatched toilets, pigsties, corners, and behind the houses, holding small brooms everywhere to find the soil and nitrate on the walls on the ground, carefully sweeping it down and bagging it, and then carrying it to the purchase point that specially purchased the soil and nitrate and selling it to the people of the Xingtian Army on credit.

In a short period of time, the problem of nitrate soil has been basically solved, a car of nitrate, began to be transported from the villages to the Shuangfeng village, Gao Cheng personally took a few apprentices, in the village to check, check the quality of these nitrate, and divide the grade, the price for the people to settle the bill.

And Zhang Chao also sent a few local people who had a good relationship with the Xingtian Army, and asked them to take the people of the Xingtian Army to Yangcheng County and Zezhou and other places to purchase sulfur to meet the needs of preparing gunpowder.

After Yang Changshou obtained Xiao Tianjian's approval because of the prototype bird, he also began to transfer to the stage of finalized production, and began to build various molds required for making birdboys, as long as these molds are in place, then the work of building birdboys can be carried out quickly.

After briefly understanding the situation here with Zhang Chao, Xiao Tianjian immediately set off and rushed back towards Lotus Village, after all, there are still three days to celebrate the New Year, although such a world festival is no longer important, but after all, for people, there is still a faint desire to celebrate, for next year's auspicious thoughts, so before such an important festival for the Chinese comes, even Xiao Tianjian himself is a little nervous, wanting to take advantage of this New Year, relax for a day or two.

On the way back to Lotus Village, they met a few people who came out of Lotus Village, these people were sent by Luo Li, who temporarily led the affairs of Lotus Village, to find Xiao Tianjian, as soon as they saw Xiao Tianjian and his party, a scout immediately said to Xiao Tianjian: "Feng Whistle General and that Feng Xi have already returned to the village!" The Yan Sentinel has also returned! ”

Xiao Tianjian was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately asked, "So how did Yan Whistle harvest them this time?" ”

The messenger nodded with joy on his face and said, "The harvest is quite good!" There are more than 100 carts just snatched back, which are loaded with grain and cloth, and now Mr. Jin is taking people to take inventory and keep accounts! ”

Xiao Tianjian breathed a long sigh of relief, Yan Chongxi and they have helped him a lot this time, a large amount of food is now needed everywhere, and after this batch of food, their Xingtian Army can basically gain a foothold here.

So he took his subordinates and Fan Yutong and rushed towards Lotus Village.

As soon as he entered the village, Xiao Tianjian saw that it was lively, and the carts were lined up from the outside of the village to the inside of the village, and the lanterns were also hung on the door of the village, and there was a lot of festive atmosphere in the lanterns, and everyone who saw them had a joyful expression, which showed that Yan Chongxi was happy that they came back this time, and indeed brought a lot of food back, which reassured everyone.

Liu Yaoben led a group of little buddies to meet Xiao Tianjian, and shouted as soon as they met: "The little ones give the general an early greeting!" I wish the general a great future next year! All wishes come true! ”

"Haha! Good! With your auspicious words, we will have great plans next year! Ha ha! I will personally reward each of you with a red envelope! All down! Xiao Tianjian liked these little guys very much, rubbed them vigorously on their brains one by one, patted them and smiled and let them busy their work.

These teenagers were also very obedient, and they followed Liu Yaoben sensibly and ran away to find a place to help, while Xiao Tianjian asked Fan Yutong to go back to Houzhai to rest first, and he immediately walked towards the Juyi Hall with an iron head.

When the generals heard the news of Xiao Tianjian's return, they all rushed to the Juyi Hall to see Xiao Tianjian, Xiao Tianjian glanced at the Juyi Hall and saw that the people sent out had all returned here, so they nodded and saluted everyone, but after a lively time, everyone sat down and began to report to Xiao Tianjian about the situation during this period of time.
