The fish ponds are very close to the river, each one is the size of an acre of land and more than two meters deep, and there are two canals connected to the river.

Hu Ye is having people use large wooden stakes to tamp the soil at the bottom of the fish pond to prevent a large amount of water from seeping and killing the fish.

Village Chief Rice looked at the fish pond and asked Hu Ye curiously, "Lord Lord, why is there a canal to connect the river?" ”

"Because it allows the water in the pond to flow." Hu Ye said lightly: "Raising a large number of fish in a small range will lead to a large number of fish deaths. This can only be avoided by ensuring a constant flow of fresh water. ”

Jeremy, who came to see the excitement, nodded again and again: "Your Excellency is right, I caught a lot of fish last time, and I couldn't eat them all for a while. I dug a small pond and wanted to keep the fish in it for a few days to eat. When I went to look again, I found that the fish were all dead, and even the water in the pond stinked. ”

"That's the result of the poor flow." Hu Ye nodded, and then asked Jeremy, "How are you practicing your marksmanship, and has you improved?" ”

Jeremy said proudly: "My progress is the fastest, and now my marksmanship is more accurate than that of the Brown Knight and James, and I can hit a squirrel sixty steps away!" ”

The distance of sixty steps in the World of Warcraft is almost equivalent to fifty meters in the main world. Jeremy was able to hit the agile squirrel at this distance, and his marksmanship was pretty good.

Thinking of this, Hu Ye asked Jeremy: "How is the marksmanship of the Brown Knight and James?" ”

"James has no problem hitting a fixed target 60 steps away, and he can hit a target the size of an egg." Jeremy told Hu Ye, "As for the Brown Knight, it's slightly worse, but it can accurately hit a target the size of a pumpkin at a distance of sixty paces." ”

This also made Hu Ye secretly sigh that people in this world can learn things much faster than people in the main world, and he nodded with satisfaction: "Continue to practice, the more accurate the marksmanship, the better." Once you are proficient in how to use the rifle, you need to teach more people how to use it. ”

Jeremy was surprised: "Can I teach others too?" ”

"Yes, you'll be a marksmanship instructor then." Hu Ye nodded and said, "When there are more people who can use guns, you will be the main force to defend the village." ”

Jeremy nodded again and again, and went to the middle of nowhere to practice marksmanship.

And the village chief of Rice was still studying the structure of the fish pond, and asked Hu Ye with a frown: "Lord Lord, if there is a canal connected to the river, won't the fish all run away?" ”

"No, it won't." Hu Ye said with a smile: "A sluice gate will be built on the canal, and barbed wire will be used to block it, and the big fish will definitely not be able to escape!" ”

The village chief of Rice looked dazed and borrowed Hu Ye's mantra: "Barbed wire, what the hell is that?" ”

Hu Ye smiled and said to the village chief: "Well...... You'll find out when you see it. ”

Two days later, the fish pond was officially completed, and Hu Ye asked people to open the floodgates of the canal, and the river water immediately poured into the fish pond, and it did not take long for the fish pond to be filled.

Hu Ye asked the sluice gates to be closed and the water storage capacity of the fish pond was checked. Several days have passed, but the water level in the fish pond has not dropped significantly, indicating that the leakage is not serious and fish farming can be officially started.

With Hu Ye's order, the villagers went to the river to fish. There are those who use fishing nets, those who set fishing traps, and those who use hooks. Anyway, all the methods were used, just to catch enough fish as quickly as possible.

Considering the difficulty of raising, Hu Ye plans to raise only herbivorous fish. In this way, you can only feed some chopped grass every day, which is much more convenient than predatory fish. You must know that there is grass everywhere in the wilderness, and even a child can do this job well.

The fish are sorted, the herbivorous fish are put into the pond, and the carnivorous fish go into the stomachs. There were fish to eat for days on end, and there were more and more live fish in the fish pond.

At this time, the tools ordered in the town of Shining Gold were also delivered, and except for a few farmers who were still busy in the fields, everyone else went to the mountains to mine leukolite.

At present, the number of people mining leukolite has doubled, and all of them have the tools at hand, and the production of leukopobole is also increasing. In just two days, Hu Ye exchanged 5,000 points of experience, which made him very satisfied.

However, a few days after Hu Ye was happy, trouble came to the door again, and the magicians in Dalaran returned.

This time, the faces of the three of them were ugly, and Jonah asked Hu Ye coldly, "Where did your lord go?" We've been looking for him for more than ten days, and there's no news at all! ”

Hu Ye looked helpless: "I'm just a village magistrate, how can I know the whereabouts of the lord, and he won't tell me!" ”

Sanchez said impatiently, "Can't you sell us some white amphibole first?" We'll explain it to your lord when we get back! ”

"I'm sorry, I can't." Hu Ye said apologetically: "I don't dare to make decisions about this matter!" ”

The black-robed Neymar said angrily: "If you don't agree, I'll ......"

"Neymar, don't be impulsive!" Jonah hurriedly stopped his companion from talking, and said coldly to Hu Ye: "I heard that Baron Chaglin is loyal to Count Rose, if you get the Earl's permission, you can also sell the white amphibole to us, right?" ”

This was exactly what Knight Brown was worried about, but Hu Ye said very calmly: "Of course, we can also accept the Earl's orders. ”

Jonah nodded and said, "Very good, let's go negotiate with Count Rose!" ”

Neymar said coldly: "I'm not leaving, I'll stay and rest for a few days." ”

Hu Ye frowned when he heard this, with this guy in the village, there is no way to carry out the mining work, it is really troublesome.

However, neither Jonah nor Sanchez objected, and Hu Ye was not qualified to drive a magician away, so Neymar could only stay.

Neymar, who stayed behind, did not stop at all, and loved to run to the mining area up the mountain when he had nothing to do, in order not to arouse his suspicion, Hu Ye could only let everyone stop working.

"My lord, we can't wait like this!" Hammond immediately complained to Hu Ye: "Those workers are paid every day, and the loss is too great if they continue like this." ”

Hu Ye was also worried about this matter, and frowned and said, "That's true, you have to find a way to solve this trouble." ”

Jeremy was eager to try: "Either I'll go to the mine tomorrow and ambush him, and I'll ...... when that guy goes up the mountain."

"No way!" Hu Ye immediately vetoed Jeremy's plan, frowned and said, "You have to be very sure, in case that guy runs away, it will become a big trouble." ”

Brown Knight said, "What then? Or I'll deal with that guy with you......"

Before the Brown Knight could finish his words, everyone heard Emma's cry outside.
