Chapter 558: Excellent Plan
"You said that the silver valley is in retreat, and even the caravan is not in or out?"
"That's right, Your Majesty. Not only is Yingu in retreat, but they seem to be still doing some big moves, and we don't know exactly what the situation is. Logically speaking, this season, they should have come out to the mountains to cut wood, but now not only did they not come out, the city gates were closed, and they didn't know what to do inside. It was about to get cold, and if they were going to spend the winter, they should have come out to sell firewood and coal, but now not only did they not let people in, but they also didn't let people out, and no one knew what was going on inside. The eyeliner we left over there has also lost contact. I guess I was caught!"
Hearing King Dongping's report, the emperor sitting on the throne looked incomprehensible, he looked at King Dongping and said: "The empire spends a very cold winter every year, and there are people who freeze to death in the empire every year.
King Dongping shook his head, and he also asked with a puzzled expression: "I don't know, if they come out to sell firewood, we can still find out, after winter, their firewood seems to be able to be found from other valleys, but...... Winter vegetables, they really have no choice, they can only bring back some fruits and vegetables that can be stored for a long time from the south, generally speaking. They should have set off a long time in the morning. But this time, they didn't send any caravans, and the entire Silver Valley was in retreat. I really don't know...... What happened in this silver valley......"
The emperor and King Dongping are worried, and Shen Hai and they are also worried about this matter.
Winter is coming soon, the most serious problem is that if the winter, every year Yinggu will freeze to death a lot of people, this Sheyang Mountain cave sky, very cold, strengthen the house, the roof of the thatch, this is the need to transport materials from the outside. But now that I'm in retreat, I don't know how to solve it.
The Shen family in the house was anxious and didn't know what to do, and suddenly a servant outside the door rushed in and said, "Master of the family, Mr. Su is back, with a large group of carpenters, and then ...... Then ......"
"And then what?"
"Go door-to-door with the windows!"
"What?" Shen Hai looked confused, he knew that Xia Xinghan was a Soul Heavenly Master, but he didn't know that Xia Xinghan was still a carpenter!
What the hell is it to send windows door to door, but the people of the Shen family came out of the house and found that there were many workers in the yard moving things into the house, and Shen Hai was surprised to see that these windows were carrying a layer of transparent things, and this layer of things was transparent cloth.
Xia Xinghan sent windows everywhere, these days is to exercise the craftsmanship of craftsmen to build windows, the first batch is free of charge, and the second batch begins to ask for money. If you want to build a house again, if you need it again, then you need money to buy it.
The workers of the Shen family replaced the windows everywhere, Shen Hai walked into the house, the house was no longer the same as before, the windows needed to be turned on the lamp, and now the room was very transparent. I can see the light!
"What is this? How can it be transparent? And it's so thick?"
"It is a translucent cloth invented by Mr. Su, which is very easy to use, and it is installed for the big guy first, and the wooden door can also be installed, but it costs money. The workers said with a smile, Shen Hai touched the window and said with a smile: "This is good, the sun comes in in winter, and the house is still warm." I heard that the blacksmith was taken away, what the hell are you doing?"
"Hit a new stove and call it ...... It's like building a big tank, and then building a lot of water channels above ground to send hot water to every house, and then letting the water go back to the boiler room underground. Said what can be done, collective heating, has been guaranteed to reduce the amount of firewood we burn and freeze to death. ”
"Really, let's go take a look!" Shen Hai really didn't know that Xia Xinghan still had this action, but when he came out, he found that there were many workers in the city who were building a wall and building a cylindrical thing.
Shen Hai walked up and said, "What is this?"
"Chimney, for boilers. The boiler was so big that it had to be placed underground. The worker pointed in a different direction. Shen Hai led the elders of the Shen family to the other side, and found that there were many workers delivering iron boxes, and the edges of these iron boxes were all pieces as if they were glued together, and they were still metal to the touch.
"What is this?"
"Mr. Xia got it, said it was welded, and we don't know how to do it. ”
How did Xia Xinghan do it? Directly use the star refining technique to weld them together. It is estimated that Xia Xinghan can use the star calculation technique to this extent. After these metal iron boxes were taken into the ground, the workers put the iron boxes into a large furnace made of bricks and stones according to Xia Xinghan's drawings. Then there is an underground well on the side, the water surface of this one is quite high, because it is underground, so it is higher, the workers add water here, and there is a thread outside, which is made of a mixture of metal and things, and it is full of oil, and it is very slippery. The function is very simple, observe the height of the water level inside.
Shen Hai looked at these water tanks and said, "In other words, most of the people here in Yinggu use such a big stove for heating?"
"Mr. Xia Xinghan said yes, he said that this winter, we should start first to protect ourselves from the cold, and then everyone will retreat and cultivate, and the farmers will continue to farm. ”
"Farming?winter?" Shen Hai's eyes widened, but he quickly went to the farmland to see that there were farmers everywhere fighting wooden frames and building earthen walls. The big guy was also working in the fields in full swing, and Shen Hai walked over and asked, "What are you doing? How do you build houses on the farmland, isn't this nonsense?!"
Shen ...... The old master, hehe, we are not building a house, it is a greenhouse, it is used for farming in the cave, Mr. Su sent someone to send us drawings and manufacturing methods, we are not at home in winter, eat and drink are in the greenhouse, the fire is burning here, we must keep an eye on the temperature all the time, not sloppy. When we arrive at the cave, it is still warm in the greenhouse, and then we can grow vegetables here, and then the old man will drink hot and eat fresh vegetables at home, don't you think it is beautiful that day?"
Shen Haihu looked at the farmer suspiciously and asked, "Really, can this thing be used in winter?"
"Yes, we live in the greenhouse, Mr. Su taught us to pan kang, this thing called the kang is really good, there is a model greenhouse over there, you go to see it?" The farmer pointed to the greenhouse in the distance, Shen Hai walked quickly to the greenhouse, he walked in curiously, after entering the accommodation place, the ground was paved with green bricks, after this hut for people, inside was a large stove stacked, there was a big pot on it, the pot was boiling water, and there was fire in the stove. Shen Hai felt the heat rushing to his face. It was already cold, and the earth was harvested. It's just that now the soil on the ground inside the house is turned over again, and the new shoots can be seen in the fields one by one, and in the greenhouse is a thick translucent cloth, and the sunlight can be fully recruited, and there are straw mats on it, and the farmers can put these straw mats on the earthen wall, and the other end of the straw mat is filled with a cloth bag of soil and falls. The entire greenhouse is very strong and durable. There are still many holes in the earthen wall behind the greenhouse, which are blocked with unused bedding and animal skins, which should be used for ventilation.
Shen Hai looked at this greenhouse in surprise and said, "Can it really be used in winter? In this way, after the retreat of Silver Valley, this winter is very leisurely!"
The elders also nodded one after another and said, "Sir is really a god, this method can even be thought of, we are really ashamed of ourselves!"
"In this way, Mr. Xia is sincerely helping Xi'er and our Shen family. In the future, anyone dares to question Mr. Xia, and I, Shen Hai, will not let them go. Did you hear that?"
"Understood!"
Shen Hai was also extremely happy when he saw Xia Xinghan's preparations for the winter.
Shen Xi followed Xia Xinghan in the medicine valley behind him all day and never left the valley, and the two of them were actually cultivating herbs in the medicine garden. Xia Xinghan actually planted some herbs that he needed, because the star power of the star spirit was very scarce and solidified, so it was the best way to extract some star power that could be absorbed from it! Xia Xinghan knew that sharpening the knife was not wrong for chopping wood, and the retreat in the Star Spirit Realm often started according to the year, and wasting this world was not a matter at all! Moreover, at this time, Tang Xiaochan and the others were probably ready to find a place to start their retreat and practice. These herbs are carefully cultivated in a greenhouse. Xia Xinghan planned to take advantage of the winter to refine some pills, and when he arrived, he would take them out and distribute them to those people.
Xia Xinghan was working hard, and Shen Xi helped Xia Xinghan take care of the growth of these herbs.
Xia Xinghan needs a lot of herbs, so cultivation is the key issue.
As the days went by, until winter came, the south wind changed to the north wind. Standing on the top of the hill and looking at the king of Dongping in the distance, there was a burst of wonder in his heart. Inside the Silver Valley, there is indeed smoke, but there are only a few places, and the rest of the houses are none?
But at night, you can see that the lights of the houses in the silver valley are very bright. They're wondering, too. According to reason, this does not make a fire, how can it be done that every family has people, won't they freeze to death?
Although there is not much smoke in the town of Yingucheng, but the farmland is full of smoke, from a distance, the farmland of Yinggu is constantly smoking, if you observe quietly on the mountain, you can also find that the people in Yinggu are living normally, they don't seem to have received the threat of winter at all, and the farmland of Yinggu is full of very strange buildings, that kind of shantytown Dongping Wang has never seen, and he doesn't know what this thing is for. Driving all the farmers to live in the fields, what does Gingu want to do?
The first snow fell, and Silvervalley hardly saw anyone except for some laborers who came out to clear the snow, especially the Star Master.
Xia Xinghan came to the temple wearing a black cloak, many star masters still came to the temple to worship, Xia Xinghan arrived at the door of the temple, he looked at the statue in the temple, contacted the star god through his real name egg and said, "Come out, let's talk." ”
It didn't take long for the wind god to come again, Xia Xinghan looked at the wind god very calmly and said, "I want to make a deal with you, you help me take care of the silver valley, push the Shen family's star masters up, and I will help you improve your cultivation." ”
Fengshen looked at Xia Xinghan, and she asked a little puzzled: "Dare to ask Your Excellency, who is the Great Emperor?"
"I'm sorry, I can't tell. I also knew this name by chance, but I really can't tell why I knew this name. What I can be sure of is that the Shooting Sun Saint Emperor should have a relationship with one of my masters. This is the only thing I can be sure of! That is to say, I have a great relationship with Su Zheng, but I also know that Su Zheng has fallen. ”
"That's right, a hundred years ago, the Great Emperor went to the Otherworld, saying that he was looking for an opportunity, and then he fell, and since then, the gods have not allowed otherworldly teleportation. How much can you say it will help me improve?
Xia Xinghan shook his head and said: "I don't know, I can only help you within my limited scope, my ability is limited after all, but I can make your godhead more stable, so that you can quickly respond to those people, and let you gain firm believers, get more faith power, and you will become a god who responds to requests." How?"
"Isn't that a third-order god?"
