Chapter 39: Enclosure (newcomers ask for votes and collections!) Thanks for your support! )
After the site was leveled, Tang Xidong asked everyone to temporarily stop digging deep tree stakes, and then used the strength of the whole village to start along the junction of the north and south mountains to build the city wall.
Prepare to enclose the entire venue.
Except for the side of the official road, all the walls are four meters, and there is no walkway, just a stone wall about one meter wide.
After all, no one is going to climb mountains and wade through the endless deep mountains.
The entire wall at both ends is made of rubble, which is only used to prevent wild animals from entering.
The more than ten miles on the side of the official road is like the city wall at the foot of Luoliang Mountain opposite.
The masonry and stone with a height of four zhang and a width of one zhang at the top combine the city wall.
On the city wall, open the north and south two mouths to make the city gate, and the middle section is facing the city wall at the foot of Luoliang Mountain, and make an arch stone bridge.
In three days, two walls were built, and in four days, half of the walls were built.
The whole venue is kind of fenced.
After the entire city wall was halfway built.
The bricks on the mountain are no longer available.
Tang Xidong had to slow down, divide more than half of the people, and continue to excavate the remaining tree stumps in the fenced yard, and at the same time dig ditches along both sides of the creek to lead them into the fields.
Looking at the open field in front of him, Tang Xidong could already imagine the scene after the greenhouse was built.
I can't help but feel a sense of pride in my heart, this is all planned and designed by myself, and it can feed tens of thousands of people.
In later generations, there was a poem called "Broken Chapter" that wrote: You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people who watch the scenery look at you from upstairs!
At this moment, Tang Xidong, who was standing on the half-formed city wall and looking at the heaven and earth, didn't know that there were also a few people on the top of Luoliang Mountain behind him who were watching him who was small between heaven and earth.
Heaven and earth are his landscapes, and he is someone else's landscapes.
The top of Luoliang Mountain.
Liu Lianqing was by Han Yi's side, followed by a few people.
Trying to look at the small scholar at the bottom of the mountain, as well as the vast land in front of the scholar, Han Yi's eyes showed a trace of complicated emotions.
He has mixed emotions about the scholar in front of him who is single-handedly running a small cottage and growing. I cherish talent in my heart, but the other party is a mountain bandit in the Ming Kingdom, and I admire it in my heart, but the age of the other party makes him, a person who is about to enter the earth, suspect that most of his life is on a dog.
The more troubled the times, the more you can feel the power of this young man.
That energy that can change the world.
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, who would have thought that the cottage in front of me was just a few months ago, and it was still the small place in Lianqing's mouth that was so poor that it couldn't even feed a thousand people!" Han Yi put away the complexity in his heart, and said with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't say Grandpa Han, you don't believe it, even if I see it from beginning to end, it's like a dream at the moment." Liu Lianqing looked at the figure under the mountain stupidly, with a smile on her face.
The old and the young, have been so close in the busy days of Tang Xidong!
Thinking about it, according to Liu Lian's cold temperament, it is quite rare.
"It's a pity, it's not for my Ming Dynasty, such a great talent in governing the world, you can't be trapped in this small cottage!" Han Yi whispered to himself, and the voice could only be heard by himself, the thought in his heart was becoming clearer and clearer at this moment, he Han Yi wanted to show favoritism this time, push the good talent in front of him to the stormy Ming Dynasty, and save the country's fortunes in danger!
Liu Lianqing didn't hear it, otherwise she was afraid that her face would change instantly.
She can't imagine now that if the cottage is without Tang Xidong, the scene of the trees falling and scattering.
Tang Xidong didn't know what was happening on the top of the mountain behind him, and even if he knew, he wouldn't have time to deal with it, and there were still many things in front of him.
The brick-fired kiln on the mountain can no longer support the construction speed of the cottage, so he has to send more people to build a few more holes.
The site in the back hill should also be leveled to prepare for the establishment of the factory.
The ditches between the fields should also be planned so that they can be easily watered in the future.
Farms should also be well planned and combined with agriculture to create a benign agricultural cycle.
The walls had to be built as early as possible to prevent any unexpected incidents from coming and to be prepared for them.
There is also a stone bridge between the city walls, which also needs to be designed and planned by yourself in advance, not only to be strong enough to connect the two sides, but also to be strong enough to prevent possible shelling in the future from breaking the stone bridge.
Cement plants, coking plants, coal kilns, mines, ......
Tang Xidong had to handle all of this personally, after all, no one knew all this better than him.
In the afternoon, I took people up the mountain, built a ten-hole brick kiln again, and sent more people to let the veteran take it to speed up the progress of brick burning.
By the way, I went to see the progress of the coal kiln and the mine, the coal kiln has now dug the coal seam and began to expand the hole to dig coal, Tang Xidong looked at the roadway built of wood, and urgently hoped that it could be made into a reinforced concrete roadway, so that it could be safer.
The outermost layer of the mine in San'in, which is 10 meters deep and 30 meters square, has been excavated, and now it is digging deeper, and the soil and gravel that are exported have also piled up a high hill under the cliff of San'in.
Tai Danian promised that in another seven or eight days, he should be able to explore the ore layer.
Everything on the mountain was arranged, and Tang Xidong rushed to the bottom of the mountain non-stop to supervise the excavation of the ditch.
While digging the piles, according to Tang Xidong's instructions, the ground was turned deeper by more than 20 centimeters, and the rotten branches and leaves were buried in the soil, which slowly fermented and rotted into nutrients.
The excavation of the ditch should not be too deep or too shallow, and in the era when there was no waterproof material, the water could not be kept in the ground for a long time, so that the ditch side would slowly turn into silt and nothing could be planted.
Tang Xidong designed that the mouth of the ditch connecting the stream should be a little higher than the water line of the creek, and at that time, a small waterwheel would be made at the mouth of each ditch, and when water was needed, water could be artificially diverted into the canal.
The planning of the field should also be done well, and the foundation of the brick wall of the greenhouse should be excavated in advance, and the wall should be built directly when the time comes.
After all, it is ploughing the ground, and what can be done at one time must be done at one time, otherwise it will be a waste of labor.
Sprinkle the line with white ash and mark it so that everyone can see at a glance which places are the brick wall foundations that need to be excavated directly.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the time came to the end of October.
Except for the stone bridge and the factory, there is no trace of it, and everything is done.
The field has changed, and the greenhouses have been built with the concerted efforts of everyone, and the rows of greenhouses are neat and regular.
Just waiting for the next planting, the good thing is that the previous experiment also determined one thing while planting wheat seedlings, that is, there is no fear of delaying the planting time with a greenhouse.
Rabbit hutches, chickens, ducks and geese, pigs, cows, sheep, deer, ......
All of them have been built, and now these wild things have a home, and there are special people in charge of domestication.
The city wall has been built, and every day the members of the company take turns patrolling it, so as not to delay the training of the remaining team members.
The stone bridge was not done for the time being, in order to wait for the birth of cement, with cement, the bridge can be stronger again.
Two days ago, the iron ore was finally dug up in the mine, and now it is neatly piled up in the large stockyard reclaimed in the back mountain.
Everything has been taken care of, only the construction of the factory remains.
And the rest of the farming work can be handed over to Liu Lianqing and them to do.
For Tang Xidong, opening a factory is the key to the future development of Shanzhai, and for others in Shanzhai, this is also a groundbreaking new thing.
Although he was already tired, Tang Xidong still mustered up his energy.
