Chapter 609: The Place of the Tree of Life
Chu Chen's first goal, the unification of Shangyang Province, was achieved with great ease, which made Chu Chen's mood very good.
In a good mood, drinking was a little floating, causing Chu Chen to get drunk again at yesterday's celebration banquet.
slept until three o'clock in the morning today, and Chu Chen rubbed his head and got up.
After getting dressed, Chu Chen found that there was actually a bowl of sobering tea on the table in the room.
There is no need to guess, this must have been prepared by Jiang Xin, after all, Lin Manyue does not have this skill, and others, if they do not get Chu Chen's permission, are not allowed to enter and leave Chu Chen's room at will.
Jiang Xin was not in the house, and the sobering tea was already cold, thinking that as the city lord, she should be very busy.
But even so, Jiang Xin still had the heart to prepare sobering tea for Chu Chen, which made Chu Chen feel a little warm.
After drinking the decanting tea that had been cold, Chu Chen left the compound and walked around Ningqiu City.
Compared with a few months ago, Ningqiu City is very different now.
The area alone, Ningqiu City has expanded by five times, of course, Chu Chen is very clear about this, but Chu Chen ordered it to go down and ask everyone to expand.
The current situation is that the new city is in the center of the base, the west is the old town, and the three sides of the southeast, north and south are newly opened fields.
Except for the fields in the east, which Xiao Qi was planting by themselves, the fields on the north and south sides had already been arranged by Jiang Xin and rented to ordinary survivors in the base, who cultivated them by themselves, and handed over a part of the grain they planted as rent.
The planning of the new city is completely different from the old city.
When the old city was first built, everyone had no experience, and although all the buildings were built well, there was no overall plan.
The current new city is different, after Chu Chen proposed to expand, Zhou Ling, the captain of the construction team, invited Mr. Zhang to plan the new city as a whole together with several earth magicians with a talent for construction.
It can be said that after the foundation of the new city has been laid, no buildings have been built, and Zhou Ling and her sisters can already 'see' the general appearance of the new city after it is completed.
After going around the new city a few times, although Chu Chen was relatively satisfied with the overall planning, greening, and prosperity of the new city, he still couldn't stop shaking his head.
Chu Chen inspected the base, not to be idle and bored, but to find a place to summon the 'Tree of Life'.
This thing couldn't move, and Chu Chen didn't dare to guarantee if he could help it move, so he had to pick a suitable place to summon.
Although it was not summoned, Chu Chen could not see its specific attributes, but this skill appeared in the combat profession, and it must be a summoned beast that could be used in battle, or in other words, a summoned plant that could be used in battle.
And it can't move, so Chu Chen speculated that it was a defensive type summon.
Chu Chen hadn't summoned the 'Tree of Life' before, because he wasn't sure that Ningqiu City would become the base camp of his own forces.
And now that Shangyang Province has been unified, the importance of Ningqiu City is undoubted, and it is natural that the 'Tree of Life' can be summoned to defend Ningqiu City.
Of course, how effective it can be will have to wait until it is summoned and its properties are seen to understand.
……
After walking around the new city, Chu Chen couldn't find a suitable place, so he could only retreat and return to the old city for a stroll.
Although the old town is important, after all, it is not from the center of the Ningqiu City base, and if the defensive range of the 'Tree of Life' is too small, then it will not be a good decision to choose here.
After walking around the old city, Chu Chen also didn't find any place suitable for him to summon the Tree of Life.
Shaking his head, Chu Chen prepared to go back to the compound.
The scene of Chu Chen shaking his head happened to be seen by Fang Wei not far away, so Fang Wei came to Chu Chen, bent down and bowed his head, and asked with a smile: "Boss Chu, what's wrong?" Isn't this old town badly built? The old slave thought it was good, and re-planned, and the old town seemed much quieter. ”
Chu Chen smiled, shook his head and said: "Whether it is the new city or the old city, Zhou Ling has planned well, but I want to transplant a big tree in, but I don't know where to place it." ”
Fang Wei was worthy of being one of the elders who had been staying in Ningqiu City, and as soon as he heard Chu Chen's question, he smiled and said, "Boss Chu, if you don't have a better choice, you might as well go to Miss Ru Xu's garden and take a look, transplanting the big tree there, there should be no problem." ”
Chu Chen's footsteps towards the compound stopped, and Fang Wei raised his eyebrows and asked, "Liu Ruxu's garden?" Where is it? Is the location big enough? The big tree that I transplanted may grow to a large size. ”
Nodding with a smile, Fang Wei bent his back and stretched out his hand to guide Chu Chen to the westernmost part of the base, while explaining to Chu Chen: "Since the last expansion, the old town has been much empty, so after consulting the city lord, Miss Ru Xu moved her garden to the west, almost close to the exit of the reservoir. ”
Nodding slowly, hearing Fang Wei mention the reservoir, Chu Chen asked Fang Wei behind him as he walked, "How is the reservoir now?" All the ice in it must have melted away, right? Shi Yingying must have moved back to live in it, right? ”
Fang Wei hesitated for a moment before answering Chu Chen truthfully and said, "No, Boss Chu, Miss Shi Yingying still lives in the reservoir, and the ice in the reservoir has not completely melted, but the ice on the reservoir has partially melted." ”
Turning his head to look at Fang Wei, Chu Chen looked surprised: "What's the matter?" Could it be that the magic crystal is too strong for the ice to melt away? ”
Fang Wei smiled a little embarrassedly, and explained to Chu Chen: "The reason given by Miss Shi Yingying is also like this, she said that the magic crystal is too powerful, and now that the reservoir has been finalized, even she can't restore the reservoir to its previous state of full fresh water. ”
Seeing Fang Wei smiling a little strangely, Chu Chen frowned and shouted, "Just say something, what are you doing hiding it?" ”
Fang Wei nodded and continued to explain: "Actually, we all know that this is just Miss Shi Yingying's excuse, but the City Lord discussed it with the other adults, saying that she had already melted most of the ice cubes anyway, and the remaining small part should not have much impact, so she let Miss Shi Yingying arrange it herself." ”
Before his eyebrows were flat, Chu Chen asked again, "It's not an impact?" Can the fish in the reservoir still be raised? Will there be any problems with residential water? There is no way to change the state of the reservoir now, and when the next hot summer comes, will it not be possible to condense the fresh water in the reservoir into ice? ”
When this series of questions came out, Fang Wei was stunned, and after a while, he smoothed it out and replied to Chu Chen: "The fish in the reservoir can be raised, Shen Xing said, as long as it is not cold to the freezing temperature, there is no problem." ”
After a pause, Fang Wei continued to answer: "There is no problem with the residents' water, everyone has used the cold water that has melted into ice cubes, and they are used to it, so the temperature of this water is just right now!" ”
Nodding slowly, Chu Chen reiterated the third question: "Then when the next hot summer comes, can the fresh water in the reservoir still condense into ice?" ”
Fang Wei swallowed, and smiled awkwardly at Chu Chen: "This, this question, the city lord has already asked Miss Shi Yingying, Miss Shi Yingying said, the fresh water in the reservoir has been finalized, and there is no need for even flood control channels, once there is too much fresh water in it, the magic crystal will automatically absorb it, and if the fresh water in it is reduced, the magic crystal will also take the initiative to release the water magic element and replenish the fresh water in the reservoir." ”
After listening to Fang Wei's relay, Chu Chen raised his eyebrows, a little disbelieving in his heart, but with Shi Yingying's character, she shouldn't be able to deceive: "It's not raining during this time, right?" Everyone uses so much fresh water, what about the fresh water in the reservoir? Is there a lot less? ”
Fang Wei looked even more embarrassed, he bowed his head slightly, and replied to Chu Chen: "No, when Miss Shi Yingying just said this, almost everyone, including the old slave, didn't believe it, but during this period of time, the fresh water in the reservoir has indeed not decreased or increased, and has been steadily maintained at the top of the reservoir and the bottom of the lake. ”
At this moment, the wrinkles between Chu Chen's eyebrows finally dissipated, and he smiled: "Haha, my recognized sister, can always give me some surprises, if we can stabilize this state, then our life in Ningqiu City will be much better." ”
"Hehe, yes, Boss Chu, what you said is not wrong at all."
Fang Wei lowered his head and echoed a few words, then pointed to Chu Chen in front and continued: "Boss Chu, look, in front of you is Miss Ruxu's garden, which occupies more than half of the area under the city wall and in that triangle area. ”
Chu Chen's footsteps didn't stop, and while continuing to walk towards the garden in front of him, Fang Wei asked curiously, "Wasn't it Liu Lin's training camp originally?" Why, Liu Lin won the battle and didn't even need to train? ”
At the mention of this, Fang Wei's mood seemed to be a lot happier, he waved his hand, and said with a smile: "No, now that our base has been expanded, the population has increased a lot, and the treatment of our old members has become better, Commander Liu now has a larger training camp, right next to the orchestra leader's gladiatorial arena, and that's not all, even Fang Sen, the city guards, also have their own military camps, which can be used for training and arranging tasks." ”
Before stepping into the garden, Chu Chen glanced at Fang Wei, who was smiling, and joked with a smile: "How is it?" Now Fang Sen is the head of the regiment, right? Have you given him a family affair, so that he can report to his grandson as soon as possible! ”
