Chapter 199 Preliminary Planning
That being said, this area is not too suitable for pastures, because the vegetation is not evenly distributed, and the soil quality is not good.
But the location of this deposit is really good. It is surrounded by mountains on both sides to the southwest and forests to the east.
If a mine had been built, there would have been some clearing left in the area to the north, which would have reduced the pasture unless some of the trees were cleared.
Jiang Xi took a group of people around the periphery of this area, and then together with Jiang Ruoyang, he pulled a few people from the Mo family to study how to plan and build this place.
At this time, except for a few people, such as Jiang Anrao's family and Jiang Xi, the people on the side, including Bai Qi, who was present when he bought the land that day, didn't know what really moved Jiang Xi about this piece.
They only knew that this piece of land and the forest just now were newly purchased by the Jiang family, but few people knew that there were minerals buried in this area!
Jiang Xi asked the Mo family's main meaning, if you want to fence this area, how should you plan and build it?
According to his idea, there are mines here, and no one can just find them, of course, a fence must be built to hide it well. However, it is inconvenient to say it at this time.
If you want to build a pasture here, how can you avoid people or wild animals in the forest?
Dawn looked at the surrounding terrain and said:
"There are mountains on both sides, which are natural barriers, and you can build a wall with the help of the mountains. To the east, just build a high wall near the forest to keep the beasts out.
Earthworks can be picked up from the nearest mountain to the west or south.
However, this forest is deep and wide, and if you want to protect against wild beasts in the forest, it is better to have a wall that is not only high and strong enough, but also has a certain distance from the trees.
Or a part of the forest can be cut down. The felled trees can be used to build ranch fences, and the felled trees can also be used to make houses.
As for the north and south sides, rammed earth walls or wooden walls can be made as appropriate, leaving exits.
The south side has a mouth for easy access to water, and the north side is easy to walk.
At first glance, this is the case. ”
When Jiang Xi heard this, he agreed with such an architectural plan. It's still summer, and it's just in time. Start now, you should be able to build it before winter.
"Does Mr. Li think the wall should be built first?"
"If there are enough manpower, the felling of wood, the removal of earth and stones, and the construction of the fence may be carried out at the same time. It's just that the land here is not very fertile, and the Jiang family really decided to build a ranch here? ”
According to Daybreak's experience, this is not a good place to build a ranch, the first is that the scope is not wide enough, and the second is that the soil quality is not good. In some places, there are weeds, and in others, there is no grass at all, although there are some wild grasses and plants such as alfalfa. However, the scope is not large enough, and it is far away from the county seat of Wugong County, and it is not easy to take care of it here if the snow closes the road in winter.
In Xiaoxiao's opinion, he didn't understand why Jiang Xi would buy such a place.
However, this doubt was completely solved later, when he saw the terracotta dug out by Jiang Anrao!
Jiang Anrao's family and Jiang Xi all knew that there was a black gold mine in this area, but they always said that they wanted to build a ranch, so everyone present didn't think much about it.
Jiang Xi was leading everyone to the side of the forest, wanting to see what trees were on the periphery of the forest, whether it was convenient to cut down, and what could be used for it after cutting.
And Wang Yun took Jiang Anrao to a place where she had dug a little before. Because Jiang Anrao pulled Jiang Ze in the past, Dawn followed.
"This is terracotta?"
Dawn followed, and saw Jiang Anrao holding a dagger and starting to dig. The color of the excavated soil became more and more different, and Dawn let out a surprised voice.
"Shhhh Mr. Li is lighter, and it is inconvenient for more people to know about this matter. What Mr. sees next, please keep it a secret for my Jiang family! ”
Jiang Anrao said.
Dawn was stunned for a moment, nodded, and Jiang Ze, who was originally relaxed next to him, also showed a serious look.
Jiang Anrao's subordinates kept stopping, and finally dug up what they wanted.
Crimson iron ore!
I dug up what I wanted, picked up some and put it in my arms, kicked the soil twice with my feet, and buried the hole I had just dug up.
"Ah Rao, what is this?" Jiang Ze saw it clearly and asked softly.
"I'll tell you when I get home."
Jiang Anrao finished sampling, smiled at everyone, and then returned to Jiang Xi's army together, casually inspecting the trees in the forest.
It's like a normal little kid who is bored and hanging out.
"Whew!" When everyone was walking around and taking a look, someone suddenly screamed.
Everyone looked for prestige, only to see Jiang Chao's youngest concubine, Jiang Wan, screaming and jumping. When the people didn't understand what was going on, they heard him shouting and shouting, and he patted his head and ears with his hands as he jumped:
"Ah, something bites me, something bites me!"
The Jiang family beside him unsheathed the sword in an instant, and hurriedly went over to check it on Jiang Wan. People began to think that there were some snakes, insects, rats, ants and the like, hiding in the grass, and suddenly appeared and bit Jiang Wan. But no poisonous insects or snakes were found.
Seeing that it was only a moment, Jiang Wan's left ear, the pinna of the ear was already high and swollen.
"It looks like it was stung by a bee?" I don't know who said this, and everyone suddenly realized!
He had just walked from the meadow to the woods, and he did encounter some bees on the way. But everyone didn't pay special attention, and they didn't expect Jiang Wan to be so unlucky, so she was stung by a bee.
Che 1889: Hahaha, look, look at Jiang Wan's auricle, swollen old high! The skin is tight and shiny, as if the elves have possessed it!
Jiang Anrao almost laughed out without sympathy.
"You can still see wild bees here, maybe their hive is nearby, find the hive and take some of its honey out and smear some of it, it should be able to eliminate the bee venom, right?"
Someone said.
"Stay! Provoke wild bees? I'm afraid I don't want to involve everyone being stung again? ”
Not to mention whether this method is good or not, but it is too unwise to say that it is too unwise to poke a honeycomb in the wild.
The idea was quickly dismissed.
Grandpa searched nearby, but unfortunately he didn't find a particularly suitable medicine, so he found some swelling and pain relief, used the needle he carried with him to break the skin, picked out the bee poison needle for him, and then mashed the medicine and smeared it on Jiang Wan.
He finally felt better, but his stinged ears still hurt a lot, and he could only grin from time to time.
Jiang Anrao looked at the bees that occasionally flew among the flowers and plants, but suddenly had some ideas.
This side is close to the forest, there are flowers, grass and trees, and these bee hives must be nearby.
Nowadays, most of the honey is dug up in the wild. Look at the surrounding environment there should be many sources of honey. If you make some beehives and find the queen bee, you can keep them here, and the artificial breeding of bees can almost be successful. At that time, the Jiang family will be able to have a lot of honey to eat.
Of course, this was only a fleeting idea of hers, and she didn't plan to implement it immediately. Now is not the time to do this.
