My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

While King Qi Jing was taking action, the reconstruction of Qiongdu was also in full swing.

Aside from the cement and pipes needed for repairing the underground drainage system, Ji Yunshuang took mostly food out of the space.

As the grain in the granary gradually dwindled, Ji Yunshuang felt a sense of urgency.

The need to reuse black soil for large-scale grain production is now urgent.

Besides the black soil in the space, the area outside Qiongzhou City where the monsters have been completely wiped out should also be restored to cultivation.

Coincidentally, the publicity for the new policy had also been effective, so Ji Yunshuang took the opportunity to have officials carry out the work of sending disaster victims back to their hometowns.

In order to enable people to return home and settle down successfully and quickly resume normal life, the government not only distributed relief grain, but also lent them farming tools to cultivate the land.

If it is necessary to rebuild the house, one can borrow money from the government.

There is no interest on this money within three years. Only if it is not repaid after three years will a small amount of interest be charged.

Three years is not a long time, but it's not short either. And now, with the new policy in place, they no longer need to pay agricultural taxes.

If you have a child, you can also get one tael of silver and 100 catties of coarse grain from the government every year until the child is 8 years old.

Doesn't this mean the government gives them one tael of silver and 100 catties of coarse grain every year? By the time the child is 8 years old, he can help with household chores.

If they really can't pay back the debts by then, why don't they just have their family have a few more children?

The people are full of confidence in their future lives.

When the government announced that it would send people back to their hometowns to settle down, many people responded enthusiastically. The process of returning home went very smoothly.

In addition, various workshops also began to be prepared.

Many of the cement, pipes, and tools used in the reconstruction of Qiongdu today were taken from available space.

But these were just things Ji Yunshuang had hoarded in her space before; they weren't inexhaustible resources.

Therefore, we still need to find a way to produce it ourselves.

It was no easy task for a completely backward dynasty to suddenly produce qualified cement, glass, and many other modern tools.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Ji Yunshuang decided to start with the simpler tasks.

After weighing the options among steelmaking, cement production, pipe manufacturing, and glass manufacturing, Ji Yunshuang concluded that cement production was the easiest.

Moreover, cement is currently the most useful material, and its inventory is the least in the space.

Therefore, the first workshop that Ji Yunshuang and her team built was a cement processing workshop.

The raw materials for making cement are easier to obtain than those for steelmaking and glassmaking.

After investigation, Ji Yunshuang discovered that in Qunshan County, not far from Qiongdu, there were raw materials such as limestone and clay that could be used to make cement.

The process of making cement is relatively simple. They certainly couldn't build a modern, sophisticated cement plant right now.

However, they can use the relatively primitive method of firing clay pottery.

In the online courses at Jixian Academy, Ji Yunshuang specially compiled materials from several sessions to talk about cement production.

Among the trainees, she selected twenty of the better learners to go with her to Qunshan County to build a cement processing workshop.

Of these twenty people, apart from Cui Mingyuan, the head of the Ministry of Works, the rest were mostly ordinary people.

Ji Yunshuang appointed Cui Mingyuan as the main person in charge of the workshop, and Sun Cheng, Zhao Qian, and Lin Kun as the technical backbone.

Aside from providing material support and some advice, she didn't interfere much else, letting them figure things out on their own and accumulate experience.

Cui Mingyuan and the others learned the theory and methods of cement production on the computer. Ji Yunshuang also found the raw materials for them and provided some practical suggestions. It can be said that she solved the most difficult points for them.

If even this can't be accomplished, Ji Yunshuang can only blame herself for being blind and choosing the wrong person.

Fortunately, they did not disappoint Ji Yunshuang.

Soon after, good news came from Cui Mingyuan's side that the cement production was successful.

Cui Mingyuan sent the cement they had made in the workshop back to Qiongdu for Ji Yunshuang to inspect.

Ji Yunshuang immediately ordered people to add water and sand, mix them, and then lay the bricks.

After personally verifying that the cement was up to standard, Cui Mingyuan immediately expanded the scale of production and led his team to start producing cement at full capacity.

The success of the cement processing plant boosted the confidence of everyone in the government.

While Cui Mingyuan was busy setting up the cement processing workshop, Ji Yunshuang was pushing forward with several new projects.

These projects mainly involve breeding, planting, and processing of medicinal herbs.

When Elm Mountain was burned, Ji Yunshuang thought it was such a pity that so much vegetation was burned by the fire.

If she has the opportunity in the future, she will definitely make use of this land that has been burned by fire.

Originally, she thought she wouldn't have time to deal with the burned-out barren mountains of Yumu Mountain for the time being.

I never expected that she would have this opportunity so soon.
