Chapter Eighty-Seven: Igloo

"Can this be solved?" Jiang Xingchen's words made everyone stupid again, that large piece of wasteland, at least a few million square meters, tens of millions of square meters is possible. There are only a few people in Qingshan Village, and they can actually grow it.

"Does he have any strange ideas?" said to everyone.

Although Jiang Xingchen has already experienced all kinds of miracles before, everyone will still be skeptical that he can cultivate such a large area of land with just such a small number of people. After all, it's more difficult than fishing.

Jiang Xingchen nodded lightly with a smile on his face, but he was also beating a drum in his heart, if he wanted to cultivate such a large area of land, he had to change manpower to ox farming, and even the farming tools had to be changed.

In his previous life, he was not familiar with farming, but he also learned in history books that ox farming liberated productivity instead of manpower. As for the relations of production, there is no need to worry about changing, after all, the sub-feudal system of the Qiankun Empire is very different from that of the earth, and the land management is also very strict, and it is not possible to open up the wasteland privately.

Two of the most important points are that the empire does not have ploughing oxen, and the bison certainly cannot!

He can use guò to improve the tool repeatedly, but it is a little troublesome to plough the ox, which is why he is drumming in his heart. However, in order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the villagers, he still showed great confidence. Anyway, it is also to repair water conservancy first, and farming has to wait for the reward of expanding the territory to come down, so don't worry!

Although Shi Wazi and Grandpa Fu felt unbelievable, seeing Jiang Xingchen so confident, they couldn't help but ignite a fire in their hearts, if what the lord said was true, then ...... None of them could have imagined that.

"Boy, what you said is easy, but how do you dig this mountain, more than a hundred meters, don't think about me, I don't have the ability to do this!" the old man said at this time.

"I didn't say that I was pointing at you!, just call more people!" Jiang Xingchen glanced at the old man and said with a smile.

"Call more people, where do you call people?"

"I have helped so much of the Seventh Legion, it should be no problem to ask Captain Wu Tianfeng to borrow some people! So many of their soldiers are recuperating in Hongyuan City...... Besides, I'll ask the Marquis of Dingbei to borrow some city guards!"

"That's true! With a few hundred people, it won't be difficult to get through this mountain beam in a year and a half! However, with so many people eating, drinking, and sleeping, you are going to ruin your wealth!" the old man nodded.

"A year and a half, isn't it too late for the eight villages!" Jiang Xingchen pursed his lips, looked at the old man and said, "At least there must be more than 3,000 people, and I will dig it out in two months!"

"I'll go~" Everyone is in a flicker, three thousand people, not to mention food and drink, do you have a place to live! Two months, at least spend 500,000 citrine coins on you.

"Boy, you really have a fever!Go back, the ancestor will treat you!" The old man grabbed Jiang Xingchen's hand and was about to go down the mountain.

"You're sick!" Jiang Xingchen shook it vigorously and said loudly: "Do you think I'm joking with you, just now I have sent a letter to the Marquis of Bei and the commander of the Wu Tianfeng Army, and the personnel and materials are also asked to help prepare, and I can still afford 500,000 citrine coins!"

Jiang Xingchen said, the muscles on his face twitched twice, saying that he didn't care, but taking out all the family funds at once still made him extremely painful, and he kept sighing in his heart: "It's really fast, and it's fast!"

"500,000 citrine coins!" Shi Wazi, Grandpa Fu Although they knew that Lord Jiang was rich, when they heard this number, they still felt a little hypoxic, and their brains were dizzy, and they couldn't imagine how much it was.

Looking at the people who were still stunned, Jiang Xingchen smiled and said, "As for the place to live, I will have my own arrangements then!"

This sentence shocked everyone again, three thousand people live, what can he do? Everyone's curiosity came out, and they kept asking Jiang Xingchen!

At this time, Jiang Xingchen was pretending to be compared, and when he said a word, he knew that he would go down the mountain beam with his hands behind his back......

In Hongyuan City, the Marquis of Dingbei couldn't cry or laugh with Jiang Xingchen's letter, he just told sù this kid that the emperor suppressed his merits, and he may not be able to get the possibility of expanding the territory in the future, he is about to start clearing the wasteland, where did he get such great confidence, he knew that this thing would definitely be done.

"Three thousand people, dig a hole in the mountain beam, this kid is really generous, and the cost of 500,000 citrine coins is not ambiguous at all...... Hehe, it has made another contribution to the prosperity of Hongyuan City!"

Dingbei Hou smiled, strode out, and went straight to the location of the Seventh Army Branch, and now Wu Tianfeng is also recuperating here.

Hearing about the intention of Dingbei Hou, Wu Tianfeng's eyes widened and asked, "Kaishan, what is he doing in Kaishan?"

"Hehe, I don't know what he is doing...... Just say if you can help or not!" Dingbei Hou did not mention the expansion of the territory, and the eight characters have not been touched yet, how can he say it casually.

"Help! Jiang Xingchen's matter, I must help, I will stand up to the above questions!" Wu Tianfeng immediately said, although the military department is not allowed to transfer troops without authorization, but the Seventh Army is now resting, and it is not easy to move two or three thousand people in the name of wounded soldiers, but he still owes Jiang Xingchen a favor.

"Okay! I'll prepare the supplies, you prepare the people, and send them to Qingshan Village immediately!" Dingbei Hou said and turned his head to leave.

In the days that followed, from time to time, large cars drove out of the city gates, all the way north......

In Qingshan Village, Jiang Xingchen rested well for two days, and waited until the people of the Seventh Legion sent the fishing nets back, and then took Mo Hongxian and them to fish.

The result was obvious, when they saw a large number of fish being dragged out of the water, Mo Hongxian and Wanrou were so excited that they were as big as Mei'er, shouting and screaming.

And in the past two days, Zhao Danqing and the old man have also become the most tacit chess friends, as if they are usually a good person. However, when it came time to eat and play chess, the two instantly became mortal enemies!

And Jiang Xingchen, in addition to accompanying Mei'er, is to discuss dance and music with Wanrou!

Jiang Xingchen didn't understand the dance music of this world at all, and just handed over what he didn't know much to Wanrou. Among them are simple notation and staves.

He didn't understand any scales, chromatic tones, or a few beats, but he only knew a rough idea! He only knew a few horizontal lines on the staves, and the tadpoles with their tails upward, and he had only heard of the key of F and G. For the five tones of the more ancient palace merchant horn Zhengyu, he also heard a name, and he really couldn't say it.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, Wanrou is an expert in dance music, and when the general appearance of the simple notation and the stave appeared, she was immediately attracted to it, so simple and clear that she can put the notes, scales, and beat tables out of Xiàn, which is definitely more practical than the current score.

After that, Wanrou didn't pay attention to Jiang Xingchen anymore, took out the music score she had with her and changed it, and the whole person was extremely engaged.

Jiang Xingchen couldn't intervene at all, so he could only leave.

But just before he was about to leave, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he turned around and repeatedly told Wanrou not to leak the simple score, he was still useful.

Wanrou didn't know what Jiang Xingchen's intentions were, but since she said it, there must be a problem, so she agreed without hesitation.

The following days were very peaceful, Mo Hongxian, Wanrou, and Zhao Danqing didn't leave, they all wanted to see how Jiang Xingchen solved the problem of living for 3,000 people......

December passed, and at the beginning of January, the soldiers and supplies from Hongyuan City arrived one after another, and they finally saw how Jiang Xingchen arranged the soldiers' accommodations.

Under his command, huge ice bricks rose from the surface of the river, and after one layer was laid, cool water was poured on it, then a second layer, and then another layer of water, and the layers were tilted upward...... It didn't take long for an igloo to sleep for three or five people.

The Eskimo igloo, he was also curious in his previous life, and he found it on the Internet, but he never got it with his hands! However, even the winter catch was successful, and of course he became more and more confident in the effect of the formation.

"I went there~ I actually built a house with ice, can this Nima live, and he won't freeze to death at night!" Zhao Danqing muttered as he bent down and walked in.

The moment he entered the igloo, Zhao Danqing was stunned, the truth was completely different from what he imagined, this igloo was extremely tight, and there was no wind penetrating at all. Although it is not as good as a house with a warm kang, it is much better than the severe cold of dozens of degrees below zero outside, with weeds, blankets, and animal skins laid out, and there is no problem in sleeping.

At this time, Mo Hongxian, Wanrou, the old man, Du Rushan, Mei'er and others entered the igloo one by one, and everyone couldn't help but sigh, even the old man.

They couldn't have imagined that they would build a house with ice, and what was even more unexpected was that this house could really be inhabited, extremely tight, and not permeable at all.

Those soldiers had long heard of Jiang Xingchen's magic, and they were also direct beneficiaries of the winter hunt, and they were very grateful to him. This time, I heard that I came to help Lord Jiang, so I rushed here without saying a word. And now seeing Jiang Xingchen perform a miracle again, he was shocked by him in his heart. Among them, there were a few soldiers who had followed him in the winter, and their hands were a little itchy.

If Jiang Xingchen knew that these soldiers were still addicted to themselves, he would not ask Wu Tianfeng for help even if he was killed.

It was a cold of dozens of degrees below zero, and the water surface was frozen for more than one meter, and the amount of ice increased. Soon, the soldiers joined the ranks of building igloos, and the scene was in full swing.

On the hill, the villagers looked at the igloos covering the riverbank, they were all dumbfounded, and secretly said in their hearts: "Lord Jiang can even think of such a method, it's just ...... It's not human!"

The location of the excavation was chosen by Jiang Xingchen, at least to ensure that the river was higher than the other side of the mountain beam.

However, as soon as they started their hands, everyone found that this mountain beam was too hard, and unless the old man made a move, it would not be chiseled at all. But the old man is also a person after all, and he can't dig much into it with all his strength.

In the end, Jiang Xingchen thought of a way, first burn with fire, then pour cold water, and then excavate.

Sure enough, when this method came out, the rock became much more brittle, and the excavation progress began to progress normally.

Time flew by, and soon half a month passed, just when the passage was advancing at a normal speed, the old man received a letter from Tang Chuxue, inviting Jiang Xingchen to go to the First Legion.
