The March spring breeze, when it blows on the cheeks, has the smell of earth, sprouts and residual snow.

In addition to the area that is ready to be built in the palace, Liu Ci has repeatedly planned the use of the land in the valley.

Outside the valley, she and Stuart worked together to dig a snow canal to store water, and in March, when the snow melted in the spring, the snow in the mountains melted and flowed down the original snow flood channel, filling the snow canal, which was a great handy.

Vast valleys are waiting to be cultivated, and a canal is not enough.

Although Liu Ci has the "Spring Breeze and Rain Talisman" in her hand, it is like natural rain, but she can't stay in the valley forever. When she went out, she lost the effect of the talisman, and in the summer drought, the snow canal could not meet the irrigation of the two estates. You must know that Stuhl's Zhuangzi also cultivated many grapes.

Liu Ci needed to build an irrigation system that would reach all corners of the valley quickly and easily.

The valley is facing the snow canal, and the new channel must be connected with the snow canal, Liu Ci determined the central axis of the valley, and prepared to put the palace at the foot of the west mountain, with the back of the tea garden on the mountainside, which is a wonderful place.

On both sides of the central axis, in the long strip of the palace and the exit of the valley, Liu Ci was ready to dig two large ponds. Relying on two large ponds, connected to the snow canal, and then using a small ditch as a channel, it can not only meet the needs of irrigation, but also form a small living water circulation in the valley.

Now let them dig the pond, and the hired workers can't spare the manpower.

Liu Ci explained the precautions for ordering microphones, and ran back to the room to flip through the "Fu Zheng Region".

Human power can't do anything, as a foundation building monk, she can also use the power of heaven and earth! Liu Ci remembered that he had seen a very remote talisman, like an earth-based intermediate spirit talisman, and had a vague impression that that the talisman could solve the dilemma in front of him.

What exactly is it?

Liu Ci sat on the chair with his eyes closed, immersing his divine sense in the lotus pond space.

When the lotus leaf in the pond saw her coming, she gently shook the leaf to show welcome. Liu Ci ignored the lotus leaf who would be a mother and was very enthusiastic about her as long as she had the elements to eat, and used her divine sense to flip through the "Fu Daquan". There are tens of thousands of different talismans in the whole book, Liu Ci wants to remember that each talisman is not impossible, it is easy to memorize, and the spirituality when drawing talismans is rare.

Intermediate spirit runes, Liu Ci flipped to the earth system intermediate spirit runes, checked them one by one, and found nothing.

Turning to the back few pages of the ancient book, and finally in an inconspicuous position, Liu Ci turned to the introduction of a talisman. Cinnabar Red Commentary records, to the effect that this talisman was obtained by chance, and could not be classified into the grade of the talisman, and could control the soil of the five elements, and the predecessors of Fu Xiu, who compiled the ancient books, gave this nameless talisman a name called "Moving Mountain".

Mountain movers.

can control the land of the five elements, and the talisman itself has no grade division, so Liu Ci can't decide whether to learn it or not.

It's not impossible to use other earth talismans, but the fault is a little more complicated, after all, she wants to dig two large ponds, and in terms of area, it is comparable to a small artificial lake. The ability of Fu Xiu is all on the Fu Gong, and it is not difficult to take Liu Ci's cultivation as the original, but the power of the Fu Qi has been suppressed to a certain extent in the Magic Continent, and it is not as enjoyable as depicted in "The Complete Book of Fu Gong".

Liu Ci still rubbed the lines of the talisman of "Moving Mountains" and put it on the desk.

Pushing open the window, the wheat field has been sorted out, in the square field, the ridges have been piled up, the women hold the basket containing the wheat seeds, wait for the people walking in front to bury the fertilizer 10 centimeters under the soil layer, cover with a layer of fine soil, they will sprinkle the wheat seeds, and finally cover the soil layer of 3 or 4 centimeters.

The advantage of this fertilization method is that when the wheat seedlings are exhausted in the three-leaf stage, the fertilizer is supplied.

Of course, it is actually best to prepare for "bottom fertilizer" before winter to plant spring wheat, and she has no plans to plant wheat by herself six times before last winter, and the farm is full of trivial matters, and she has never thought about it. Anyway, wheat is also planted to provide food for the people of the manor, the old housekeeper James said that the best wheat field in Rhine City, the yield of wheat per mu is about 300-400 catties, of course, the unit of calculating the field in the Spur Empire and even the entire continent is not the "mu" that Liu Ci is familiar with, but "You".

1 You is about equivalent to 1.4 acres, and the wheat yield of Rhine City, "One You" is 500 catties.

Liu Ci automatically converted the number reported by James into "mu". There is no way, the book "Qi Min Yaoshu" is too Chinese with Chinese characteristics, how many seeds to plant per mu of land, and there is a fixed number of fertilization, forcing her to get used to using "mu".

There are nearly 200 people in the villa, and the average person is calculated according to 1 kg of wheat and 0.7 kg of flour per day, and the villa must harvest at least 70,000 catties of wheat a year to achieve self-sufficiency in staple food.

70,000 catties, the wheat seeds that James asked people to buy back, also inquired about Emster's output. Perhaps because of the abundant sunshine, in the few places in the Emster Mountains where grain can be grown, one can produce more than 600 catties of wheat, and he suggested to Liu Ci to plant 120 acres of wheat, Liu Ci converted, this is 170 acres of land, in her opinion, it is too wasteful.

As long as the water supply can be guaranteed, in Liu Ci's view, the sunshine conditions in the Emster Mountains have every hope of reaching the maximum output value of 1,000 kilograms of spring wheat mentioned in the agricultural book. It's just that the fertility of the land in the valley is a lot worse, and she has reduced the yield by half, and there is no problem with the yield of eight or nine hundred catties per mu, right?

So Liu Ci waved his pen and set the sown area of wheat this year at 100 mu, about 70 acres.

The old housekeeper was not very satisfied, but seeing Liu Ci's confident look, he could only accept it. In terms of planting, James is a layman, and he really has no confidence to call Liu Ci, who has grown vegetables in greenhouses.

A hundred acres of land, as long as it is reclaimed, it does not require much labor to order wheat.

In ancient China, a prime-aged laborer could solve a few acres of land, Liu Ci had higher requirements for heaven and earth, Quyuan plough could be deep ploughing, as long as the ridges were dug well, fifty middle-aged men, it was too simple to solve a hundred acres of wheat fields, they had already driven their cattle and carried hoes to solve other wastelands in the valley.

The east side of the valley is a gap, the land in the valley is surrounded by three mountains in the north, west and south, go south from the valley exit, go around to the other side of the mountain to the sunny area is the kiln factory that quarries and burns bricks, this dust is flying, the workshop with heavy air pollution when firing the kiln, to be precise, the location has exceeded the land area purchased by Liu Ci, but even the grassland fox is difficult to find in the nearby barrenness, and no one will manage whether Liu Ci occupies more land.

The snow canal that flows through the mouth of the valley originates in the North Mountain, winding downstream, and the upstream also avoids the pollution of water from brick kiln quarrying.

The small red-brick building where Liu Ci and his employees lived was originally built on the left-hand side of the valley, near the foot of Nanshan Mountain, which blocked most of the scorching sunlight during the hottest months of the Amster region. According to the architectural plan, the real "palace" will be based on the central axis at the entrance of the valley, facing east and backed by the west mountain.

Two artificial lakes are to be dug on both sides of the central axis, and the small building where Liu Ci now lives is one of the lakes ready to be excavated further into the valley.

Crops such as grapes and wheat are light, and grapes can be grown on slopes.

Liu Ci plans to plant grapes all the way down from the north slope opposite the small building, and the opposite side of the planned vineyard is the mountain wall that the child soldiers train to climb every day. When the vacant land of the vineyard is drained out and separated by idle distances, it is a hundred acres of land where wheat is grown.

Not counting the hillside land that can be used, the flat land of the entire valley also has more than 1,000 acres, Liu Ci has set aside 100 acres of vacant land for his future "palace" at the foot of the West Mountain, and the remaining 1,000 acres of land in the valley, whether it is planting or breeding, she has a plan in her heart.

New ideas are being created every day, and as the estate grows, there are certainly some other new needs. The number of vine seedlings she has in the greenhouse is not enough, and the planning of the lodge is gradually improving, increasing little by little.

Looking out the window at the scene of the women holding baskets and lighting wheat, swinging hoes to cover the soil, and the hired workers driving cattle and horses to reclaim the wasteland, Liu Ci's thoughts were like wild horses that had escaped the reins, from Nanshan to Beishan, where to plant trees in the valley, where to grow grain, and where to dig ponds, and it took a long time to refocus his energy on the runes printed on the desktop.

"Move the mountains......"

Liu Ci took a look at the survey and mapping plan of the valley and delineated the two sides of the central axis of the valley mouth, which is located in the middle of the depth. Each piece of land is about ten acres, and that is the two main lakes of the water circulation system that Liu Ci is going to dig.

"I just don't know if I can complete the project of the two main lakes in one fell swoop...... If it doesn't work, you can only use other earth-walking spirit runes, the process is a little troublesome, but the difficulty is not difficult. ”

She muttered to herself as she moved her hands and feet, which had been slightly stiff from standing for a long time.

In the afternoon, the newly appointed personal maid Sanman was waiting to be summoned in the room on the first floor.

Liu Ci doesn't like to be disturbed when he draws talismans, and the little maid is destined to be dozing all day long this afternoon.

The leaves of the bamboo forest behind the house swayed gently in the spring breeze, and the dappled light and shadow cast on the glass windows, reflecting the brilliant brilliance.

The maid Sanman narrowed her eyes and looked into the distance, and among the women who ordered the wheat was her mother.

She didn't think she would become a maid.

The maids did not have to do farm work, and her skin would gradually turn white, as if fate had suddenly distinguished her ancestors from her wandering ancestors. It's like Sister Nana and Sister Amy, when they go to the city, they don't say it themselves, who believes that this is someone else's hired servant?

The family was very happy that she was chosen, and told her to serve "Miss Ci" well, not to betray her master, and not to be lazy in her work.

Miss Ci didn't know when she would come out of the study, and Sang Man's heart was itching, and she ran lightly to the wheat field with her skirt on her hands.

Guarding the ridges, the neatly dressed butler James was a gentleman wiping the non-existent sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, while the women who "ordered wheat" in the fields talked quietly while working.

What to discuss?

Everything was new to them.

For example, the "Quyuan plow" in that regard; For example, Miss Ci taught to plough the fields carefully and pile them into "ridges"; For example, wheat seeds are sown on demand, not sowing seeds as in other parts of the mainland.

You must know that they are homeless people who came to Amster, from all over the world, and have seen many wheat fields.

Only the hired hands, who were doing manual work, had a light sweat on their foreheads, and a white mist rose above their heads in the cold early spring air.

The sweat on his forehead, blown by the wind of early spring, was almost dry.

Sanman ran to the edge of the field with his skirt and greeted his mother, who was resting. She timidly peeked at the serious butler, and the old man meticulously folded the handkerchief back into his jacket pocket, not looking at her at all.

"Miss can't find you for a while, be careful that Miss Nana is troublesome to you!"

Sang Man squatted down, grabbed a handful of wheat seeds and played with them in her hand, and in the face of her mother's "blame", she was not much afraid in her heart.

I didn't see that the big housekeeper didn't say anything about her, what were you afraid of.

and a few of her selected maids, holding bamboo baskets to bring water to the resting hired workers.

Samman recognized several maids, all of whom were selected by Sister Nana to learn "embroidery". The girls looked at her with envy and jealousy, because she was assigned to Liu Ci's side.

Sang Man smiled unconsciously, and that timid caution seemed to fade in the envious eyes of others.

After chatting with my mother for a while, the hired workers drank water, rested enough, and began to work again. Sang Man was also afraid that Liu Ci would not be able to find her if he wanted to drink tea, so he also went back to the small building.

The spring breeze blew through the little girl's naturally curly hair, and through her tanned cheeks, which were still not pale in the spring sun, and her complexion was completely different from when she first came to the valley a few months ago.

This is the first year that Liu Ci Manor planted wheat, and many years later, the manor has become a well-known agricultural and animal husbandry production area on the mainland, but Sanman still remembers how everyone worked together to plant wheat grains and hope in a wasteland.
