Chapter 459 The rainy season is coming
Qu Mao and Franklin King wandered around the empty island for a day. When they arrived at the place where the war horses were raised in Muma Village, they looked forward to the future mount career of Yi Village's cavalry.
Suddenly, Franklin King looked up at the sky, and said after a while: "Haha, my lord, you are really the lucky star of Sky Island. As soon as you come, it will rain."
Qu Mao looked up at the sky, now it was the setting sun, the golden sun was hanging in the sky, but now it was covered by a layer of dark clouds, and the edges of the dark clouds were dyed golden yellow by the setting sun.
asked with some doubts: "Damn it! Franklin, can you tell that it's going to rain when you see this cloud?"
Franklin King smiled and said: "My lord, of course my subordinates must know how to read the weather when farming. It's getting late tonight, and you definitely won't be able to go back, so you see, it will start to rain around nine o'clock in the evening.
Judging by the color of the clouds, I am afraid that this rain will not last for only one or two days. "
"Let's go! Go back to Yicun, I will stay in Yicun tonight, but even in the next few days, I probably won't stay in Sky Island, Ji Island is still fighting." Qu Mao said.
In the five-storey building in the different village of Kongdao, Qu Mao invited the village chiefs, Franklin Jin, Meng De, Jiaxu and Lu Buer of the four villages of Kongdao to have dinner together.
Dinner was around nine o'clock, and it was raining outside the five-story building, but fortunately, the rain was not very heavy.
The next morning, Qu Mao woke up from the bedroom of the fifth-story building. Before breakfast was moved into the dining room, he pushed open the door of the fifth-story building and saw that it was still raining lightly outside.
It rained lightly all night, and the air in the entire Kongdao Yicun seemed a lot fresher, and a strong scent of grass squeezed into Qu Mao's nose.
After breakfast, Qu Mao made an appointment with Franklin King, and immediately walked along the stone road towards Miao Village.
Before the light rain yesterday, because water was taken from Miao Village every day to irrigate the planted pastures, the water storage capacity in all fish ponds in Miao Village may not even be one-third of the normal situation. This is Qu Mao’s request. The fish ponds in the village were excavated far deeper than normal fish ponds.
The two rushed towards Miao Village in the light rain. On the way, Franklin King said: "My lord, the rain is not heavy. It has been raining all night. It is estimated that the water level of the fish pond in Miao Village has increased by about ten centimeters at most. There is no need to do so." Hurry up and see."
Qu Mao smiled and said: "Look, let's take a look at the pasture on the empty island after being watered by the light rain all night."
Franklin King smiled and said: "My lord, Sky Island Ranch is no longer the time when a heavy rain could wash away the grass.
This rain, my subordinates estimate that it will last for about a week. In this week or so, almost all the wild water storage pools on the empty island can be filled. Of course, the residents of the empty island will also use various containers to store water. .
The two rushed to Miao Village. As Franklin King said, this level of light rain only increased the water volume of all the reservoirs in Miao Village by about ten centimeters, which was still far from full.
Turning around Miao Village, Qu Mao said: "Franklin, although the rainy season is coming, I guess the residents of Sky Island will not be able to relax in a short time.
If what you said is true, the rain will last for about a whole week, then maybe the residents of Sky Island will have to work in the rain for about a week. "
Franklin King obviously knew Qu Mao's style, and immediately took out a pen and paper, and said, "My lord, do you have any other projects to build? Tell me, write it down, and then organize the residents to build it."
Qu Mao nodded and said, "Yes, if it rains for seven days and seven nights, the reservoir in Miao Village will definitely be full, so you have to brave the rain to build the cofferdams of all the fish ponds, and surround them with water. Weirs should leave drainage holes where fish cannot escape, and drainage ditches should be dug, where the drained water flows and where it gathers, etc.”
In order to facilitate Franklin King's operation and also to innovate the cheating value, Qu Mao directly drew the trend of the drainage ditch on the paper, and adopted the design of a 10 cm wide concealed drainage ditch when passing through the area that has been planted with grass .
This area is close to the rock extraction site in Miao Village, so all the man-made soil is gravel, and a 10 cm wide ditch is created on the gravel, which will not affect the pasture growing on these rocks at all, but can have It is good for water drainage and can water the pasture directly from between the gravels.
After arranging the cofferdam of the fish pond, Qu Mao continued: "Franklin, the second thing is to take advantage of this rainy season to convert the livestock manure in Muma Village into nutrients for pasture.
It is possible to directly arrange residents to mash the livestock manure and sprinkle it on the grass.
Taking advantage of this rainy season, we can soak and flush these feces into the gravel artificial soil to nourish our pasture. There is not enough manure from livestock. We can empty the public toilets of the four villages and the toilets of residents’ homes at once, which is really impossible Just give the residents some money. "
Franklin King quickly recorded in his notebook that Qu Mao explained these two things so clearly that there is no such thing as impossible.
After writing everything down, Franklin King said: "My lord, the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance is now fighting against our territory on Ji Island. Your lord, you still don't forget to visit our Sky Island when the war is urgent. Your subordinates It was so touching.
Please rest assured, my subordinates will immediately organize the residents, especially the residents of Gang Village, to start working on these two tasks, and they will definitely be completed before the end of the rainy season. "
Qu Mao nodded, and walked around the empty island again in the rain, then returned to the port village of the empty island, left the empty island on the small warship prepared by Sylvia Ocean, and headed for Ji Island again.
After staying on Sky Island for about two days, the battle on Ji Island is still the same as in the past, and Zhao Pan and other army heroes are already preparing for the third large-scale capture operation.
Sylvia Ocean led the navy to expand the search area along the reef chain, but unfortunately, they still did not find the troop transport warships of the third batch of invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, or the Anti-Yi Village Alliance Yi Jin refused to continue to increase troops to Ji Island Yes, a total of 300,000 troops. If the territory of Yi Village cannot be dealt with, I am afraid that the Anti-Yi Village Alliance will re-evaluate whether it will continue to be an enemy of the territory of Yi Village.
Even if the birdman's reward is still so attractive, you have to die to get it.
Standing on the deck of the warship returning to Ji Island, letting the light rain slap his face, Qu Mao believed that his arrangement on Sky Island would soon bring him a lot of rewards for cheating.
