You are my golden finger

Chapter 94 Launching the Qingyuan Plan (5)

The construction site is in full swing, with people chiseling stones, transporting stones, and building roadbeds. Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Seeing Lin Xijin coming, Captain Sun, who was directing the soldiers to work, came over.

The two of them exchanged greetings, and Lin Xijin asked, "Captain Sun, the living conditions on the construction site are tough, are you all feeling well?"

"Thank you for your concern, Lord! You have provided so many supplies that the soldiers are already living very comfortably. Besides, the food here is much better than that in the barracks. I am afraid that my soldiers will be reluctant to go back after the project is completed."

Lin Xijin smiled slightly and joked, "I'm glad you're alright. If you don't want to go back, I still have more projects to do. If you can't go back, you can apply to stay with me?"

After hearing this, Captain Sun burst into laughter and said yes repeatedly.

The two of them inspected the construction site with Uncle Jianan. Finally, Lin Xijin circled a dozen points and asked the craftsmen to drill holes. She also asked Captain Sun to send soldiers to guard the designated area at night. No matter what sound was heard, no one could enter the designated area until she issued a lifting order.

Captain Sun said that it was no problem and he would ensure the mission was completed.

It was a dark and windy night, a good time for sleep. Lin Xijin brought the four secret guards in the house to install detonators in the holes dug during the day, and then arranged two people to have everyone detonate at the same time at the agreed time.

The deafening sound of the bombing was accompanied by a strong tremor that shook the earth, which also caused fear among the soldiers and villagers on the construction site, and they all ran out of their tents and sheds. Some people were trembling with fear, but they couldn't help but want to find out what caused such a strong roar and where the shaking came from.

"Is the ground shaking? Why is it shaking so much?"

"Was it thunder? Where did it strike?"

Everyone asked each other questions, they were very curious, and some even wanted to run away.

"No noise! ​​You are not allowed to go anywhere. Go back to your tents and sleep." Helplessly, they were all stopped by the soldiers arranged by Captain Sun.

Everyone could only suppress their curiosity and go back to sleep.

Not to mention the soldiers and villagers, even the four secret guards installed the detonators, detonated them, and then used light skills to leave. They were also extremely surprised when they heard the earth-shaking sound.

The four people who had completed their mission could not help but ask Lin Xijin curiously on their way back: "Master, what were we equipping just now? Why is it so powerful?"

"This thing is called a detonator. You can think of it as a giant firecracker. It can blow up rocks when it is ignited and exploded." Lin Xijin answered simply.

Lin Xijin didn't want to say more, for fear that if she said too much, smart people would come up with this thing. After all, in this era of cold weapons, gunpowder had great lethality, and she didn't want to break the current situation, after all, hot weapons had too much lethality.

In the slightly moist morning mist, the valley regained its tranquility in the morning, and everything was settled. However, when the construction started, the soldiers and villagers on the construction site looked at the rocks that were shattered by the explosion and were amazed. Some even knelt down in silent worship.

"Oh my God! How did they do this? I guess it must be that Thor saw that we couldn't dig it out, so he sent thunder to help us blast it open." Someone couldn't help but make a bold guess.

"Yes, the county lord must have asked the Thunder God to help us blow it up."

"Yes, yes, that must be the case. Have you heard the story of Yugong moving the mountains? I heard that the last two mountains that Yugong wanted to move were also moved by the gods." The soldier had some knowledge.

……

The gossip behind this spread further and further, making the villagers even more in awe of Lin Xijin.

The rocks at the entrance and exit of the Qing'an Town route were blasted away, and the progress of the project was much faster. So Lin Xijin and Captain Sun discussed and transferred 300 soldiers to the construction site of the medical school to help.

The medical school construction site didn't require tents, but the 300 soldiers regarded the tents as treasures. They were reluctant to leave behind the camouflage uniforms and the thin, warm silk quilts, and packed them all away as heirlooms.

After Lin Xijin arranged the work at the construction sites, he began to inspect the agricultural work in the towns and villages. The first place he inspected was the aquaculture in Qingtang Town. Qingtang Township got its name because of its abundant water resources and many ponds.

Since people from the breeding team had been sent down before to provide guidance on digging ponds, consolidating pond embankments, and building racks for cultivating pearl oysters, Lin Xijin's trip was just to check the progress of the work so that she would have an idea of ​​how many seedlings to prepare next.

The first place they came to was Qingshui Township. They checked more than ten ponds in a row and found that they were all well built and built according to the requirements. Lin Xijin nodded with satisfaction.

But when she came to a pond with an area of ​​only one mu, she frowned. She saw that the entire pond was covered with dense bamboo racks, with no space in between.

"Whose pond is this? Who was responsible for supervising its construction?" Lin Xijin asked with a stern face.

"Master, this pond belongs to the Hu Zi family in Danan Village. He refused to listen to our advice and insisted on building it like this, saying that this way he could raise more pearl oysters." Gan Mugen, the leader of the breeding group, replied hastily.

"Is the Beard here?"

Hearing the question, a man standing nearby, dressed in tattered clothes and with a wretched appearance, stepped forward.

"The bamboo rack in your pond is not built to the standard. You can't eat more than you can chew. It's like having too many people. Would you feel comfortable if you were crowded together? You should either tear it down and rebuild it, or stop raising seeds to avoid wasting seedlings." Lin Xijin said seriously.

Hu Zi agreed to it in a timid manner. He had heard that Shiziwo had made a lot of money by raising pearl oysters, so he wanted to raise more, so he ignored the advice and built the bamboo racks tightly.

After hearing what Lin Xijin said, he could only dismantle the bamboo rack obediently. However, no one would help him this time.

After a day's walk, Lin Xijin already had a rough idea in mind, so she returned to Murong Xu's farm in the suburbs that night and released various fish seedlings and pearl oysters, asking the breeders in Qingtang Town to transport them away the next day.

Qingtian Township also has some ponds, but most of it is paddy fields. The ponds are used for breeding, while the paddy fields are used to grow high-yield rice. Rice seeds have been distributed to villagers some time ago, and now they should have entered the seedling raising stage.

Because the climate is still relatively cold in early March, most of the methods adopted are to raise seedlings indoors on wooden racks.

Prepare fertile seedling soil, spread a thin layer of it, and evenly sow the seeds that have been soaked and germinated on the soil. Control the temperature, water, and fertilizer, and after about twenty days, you can transplant them into the field.

Lin Xijin visited more than ten large-scale farming households and felt relieved when she saw that everyone was doing their job carefully.

There were already many people in Qing'an who followed Shiziwo in planting and raising crops, so there was basically no need to worry. The planting promotion in Qinghui Town and Qinglin Town was also going smoothly, but there was an accident in Qingping Town.

"Master, can you go to Muyuan Village in Qingping Town to take a look? Most of the land there is red clay, which is very sticky. I think it will be difficult for fruit trees to survive if planted there." Gan Mugen came over and reported anxiously.

"Oh, is that true? Let me go with you guys tomorrow to check it out. Maybe we've come across a treasure." Lin Xijin said calmly without being in a hurry.

Gan Mugen was a little confused and didn't know what she meant. Seeing that Lin Xijin didn't explain any more, he had to say goodbye and leave.
