Chapter 1433 Gobi Ranch
At four o'clock in the afternoon on October 10, the fourteenth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao, Liu Qianhui and the city lord of Green City, accompanied by 100 fourth-rank camel riders, began to inspect the nine garrison fortresses outside the city walls of Yuexia City.
When Shi Buhui met Liu Qianhui and the others, he smiled and wanted to accompany them, but he only reached the second garrison fortress, and Shi Buhui was stopped by the garrison heroes for supplies.
In July of the 14th year of Tianxuan, the troops of the Marquis of Shaliu began to confront the troops of the Fulu Empire stationed in Lieyang City. Therefore, Shi Buhui has increased the number of troops stationed at the nine fortresses outside the city wall of Yuexia City to 5,000. Firearms soldiers stationed in a fortress, and each is equipped with at least one military hero.
Because the fresh water in the nine fortresses alone is not enough to meet the expenses of 5,000 firearms soldiers, and it will be much more convenient to arrange at least one military hero to supply the nine garrison fortresses in Yuexia City. There are backpacks.
The nine permanent garrison fortresses on the outskirts of Yuexia City have already accommodated 45,000 soldiers of the Firearms Army of the Marquis of Shaliu, plus the 50,000 soldiers of the Firearms Army currently stationed in the city of Moondown, the soldiers of the Marquis of Shaliu are basically All were deployed to Yuexia City and its surroundings.
Of course, even so, Yuexia City is not crowded. Residents of the Green City and experts in green plant technology still have enough open space to grow Gobi plant seedlings.
It was not until around 4:00 am on October 11, the 14th year of Tianxuan, that Qu Mao, Liu Qianhui, and the city owner of Green City had inspected the nine permanent garrison fortresses outside Yuexia City like a horse on horseback, and came to the In the nearest fortress farthest from the city.
After walking into the main hall of the third-tier courtyard in the fortress, Qu Mao asked: "City Master, I have read everything according to your requirements. Can Shaliuhou be equipped with 5,000 camels in three months?"
Liu Qianhui's eyes widened, staring fixedly at the owner of Green City.
The lord of the green city said happily: "My lord, after this journey, my subordinates are more and more sure that they only need a little fresh water from the Marquis of Shaliu to plant suitable camels within 500 meters or even 1,000 meters outside the nine fortresses." Edible pasture.
It is not even necessary for the Marquis of Shaliu to provide additional fresh water. It only needs to collect the fresh water after daily use by the soldiers of the Firearms Army stationed in the nine fortresses to achieve this goal. "
Liu Qianhui smiled and said: "This relationship is good. I will ask Shi Buhui to give orders to the troops in the future. It is nothing more than water for washing face and teeth in the morning, and water for washing feet at night. I will definitely save a lot."
Qu Mao asked: "City Master, what is the specific amount of fresh water you mentioned?
If possible, you'd better give an accurate number. After all, the total amount of fresh water supplied to the Kingdom of Shaliuhou by the holy land of Yidi's territory is limited every day.
Xirong City filled the 5,000-square-meter reservoir with water, and the total amount of fresh water evaporated every day was as high as 30,000 tons, which accounted for 5% of the total fresh water supplied to Shaliuhou State by the holy land of Yidi territory. If the fresh water consumed exceeds this figure, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to support it. "
The lord of the green city lowered his head and counted, and after a while, he raised his head and said to Qu Mao: "My lord, at most, each fortress is only 5 tons of fresh water. A fortress with abundant fresh water resources may even use 1 ton of water." No. On average, each fortress needs 2 tons of fresh water, and the nine permanent fortresses only need 18 tons of fresh water.
Compared with 30,000 tons, 18 tons of fresh water is definitely a little bit. "
Liu Qianhui jumped up and said, "Grandma, how much fresh water do I think it is? It's only 18 tons, and my mother approved 180 tons."
Qu Mao nodded and said, "Indeed, 18 tons of fresh water a day is not a particularly large investment..."
The lord of Green City interrupted Qu Mao with a wave of his hand, shook his head and said, "My lord, it's not 18 tons a day, but 18 tons of fresh water in two or three days on average. Camel pasture is not that expensive, and a little water can last for a long time.
You can calculate it based on an average of 6 tons of fresh water per day. The main reason is that there are open-air fresh water sources in our nine fortresses, so the underground fresh water is destined to be very shallow, and fresh water is poured once in a while. One is to wet the grass leaves to cool down. , and the second is to promote the development of pasture root system to actively search for groundwater. "
Qu Mao’s eyes widened, and he said: “There are only 6 tons of fresh water a day, and an average of about 1,300 catties of fresh water per fortress, and on average, less than 3 taels of fresh water for each soldier stationed in the Firearms Army.
No matter how wasteful the soldiers of the firearms army stationed are, it shouldn’t be a problem to collect 3 taels of waste water from brushing teeth, washing face and feet a day, right?
Liu Qianhui, check for yourself if I made a mistake?
This is basically not considered investment, hurry up and act.
Lord of the Green City, three months later, I will deploy a large number of camels for the Marquis of Shaliu. Since it is such an investment, I don’t think it is necessary to have a distance of 500 meters from each fortress. Just follow the 2 kilometers. Dry…"
Liu Qianhui was still elated just now, when she heard what the city lord of Green City said, she felt like a deflated balloon in an instant, and said helplessly, "Grandma! My old lady was happy for nothing, so it will take at least a year?"
Qu Mao frowned, and asked: "The owner of the Green City, is there a name for the camel pasture or the Gobi pasture?"
The owner of the green city said in embarrassment: "My lord, the general pasture is war horse pasture, camel pasture, cattle and sheep pasture, how can there be any special name for grass species.
The subordinates only knew that there is a special pasture called camel grass after communicating with Franklin King and Lord Jia Sixie when they planted our warhorse ranch on Sky Island and United Island, but they don’t know whether camel pasture has a separate name. "
When Qu Mao heard what the lord of Green City said, his fiery heart began to calm down, but the temptation of Gobi Ranch to Qu Mao was still quite strong, just like a cat that kept scratching Qu Mao's heart.
After thinking about it for a long time, Qu Mao fell silent, but he still turned on his cheating system without giving up. He searched in the cheating mall, only turned two pages, and Qu Mao jumped up instantly.
The city lord of Green City who was about to leave was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground. Liu Qianhui also looked at Qu Mao in astonishment.
Qu Mao directly used the cheating value to cheat the camel herbage seeds in the shopping mall, and asked while kryptonizing: "Green City Lord, how many camel herbage seeds are needed to sow Gobi pastures within two kilometers around a permanent fortress? "
Green City City Master said: "My lord, the fresh water sources are different in different places, which means that the groundwater situation is also different. If there is less, it needs 1 ton of camel grass seeds, and if it is more, it is estimated that it will not exceed 5 tons of camel grass seeds.
We don’t need to plant within 2 kilometers, and it’s not convenient for the soldiers to water, 500 meters is about the same…”
Where did Qu Mao have time to listen to the nonsense of the city lord of the green city, and directly placed the camel pasture seeds produced by Krypton on the wall of the main hall of the third-tier courtyard. The lord of the green city saw more and more seed bags, and automatically shut up and stopped talking up.
Quickly walked a few steps and rushed to the wall, the city lord of the green city glanced at the words written on the seed bag, opened another seed bag, grabbed a handful of seeds, smelled them, looked carefully, and said: "My God! Sure! It's camel pasture seeds, this subordinate has seen camel pasture seeds with Master Jia Sixie before!"
Qu Mao continued to krypton camel herbage seeds. After all, in the cheating mall, the price of camel herbage seeds, in Qu Mao’s opinion, is not worth cheating at all, especially since Qu Mao now has as much as 2 billion cheating points.
Green City City Lord's eyes became more and more straight, staring at more and more piles of camel pasture seeds, and suddenly shouted loudly: "My lord, enough! Enough, if we pile up again, we will all be buried here."
Qu Mao was stunned for a moment, then stopped slightly, glanced at the camel pasture seeds piled up in the main hall, and said, "Oh, this is not enough."
Then, Qu Mao went to the courtyard of the third-tiered courtyard, and continued kryptonizing camel pasture seeds. Green City kept shouting that enough was enough, but Qu Mao had no intention of stopping at all.
Liu Qianhui also shouted: "City Master, since you dislike it too much, quickly summon the Firearms Army soldiers from the Nearby Fortress overnight, and plant all these camel pasture seeds outside. Tomorrow, all Firearms Army soldiers will go outside the Nearby Fortress to wash their faces and brush their teeth. , and the footwashing water has to be poured out of the nearby fortress."
Nearly 100 tons of camel pasture seeds were produced. Qu Mao stopped and said, "It only takes three months now? If possible, I hope that the Gobi pasture you planted can continue to Xirong City."
The lord of the green city said excitedly: "Great, I didn't expect that my lord could get so many camel grass seeds, my subordinates will not go back tomorrow, I will go back after planting the camel grass seeds all the way.
Of course, Master Liu is still responsible for the accumulation of domestic waste water by soldiers of the Firearms Army.
Please, the two adults, please return to Yuexia City and notify the Yuexia City green plant technical expert team to form a 27-member team to come to the nearby fortress to find subordinates. "
Qu Mao said: "If you don't have enough camel pasture seeds, just talk. I will leave another ten tons of camel pasture seeds in Yuexia City so that you can replant them later."
The lord of the green city said: "My lord, if you can still provide camel herbage seeds, I hope you will leave 1 ton of camel herbage seeds in the nursery of the lower moon city, the middle moon city, the upper moon city, the Shaliu city and the Xirong city each. Useful.
Saliu City can stay a little longer, after all, there are agricultural research institutes and green plant research institutes there. "
Qu Mao nodded and said: "This is a small matter, when you return to the Holy Land and pass through these towns, the camel pasture seeds will naturally be prepared for you.
The only regret is that I can't provide shrub seeds and shrub seedlings, otherwise the livability transformation of Shaliuhou Kingdom should be accelerated. "
The lord of the green city shouted excitedly: "My lord, with these camel herbage seeds, the livability transformation of the Marquis of Shaliu will also be accelerated, saving at least the second half of the year's time."
