After traveling with the villa, she fights for interstellar hegemony

Chapter 10 Artificial Rain
The sky was getting white, and people who were used to working were waiting at the gate of the city.They were very excited to hear that the seeds had finally started to sow today.

Wei Zhou and Yuan You came with the doctor hat robot.Behind the six soldiers, each of them carried a sack.

The gate of the city opened slowly, and a group of people went to the farmland.

Lin Mu, Tian Wei, and Fang Ye were called forward, and the doctor hat robot taught them how to grow three types of grain.

First of all, the corn is full of gold in the sackcloth bag.Surprised them.

This side of the world's grain production is not high, low quality.Compared with the food cultivated through genetically modified, it is much worse.

Growing corn is easy.

Digging holes, throwing two or three corn kernels in each hole.

Fertilize the sides and cover with soil.

The doctor hat robot taught, and the three learned by hand.Then there are sweet potatoes and potatoes, which need to be cut into pieces.Digging, fertilizing, and covering.The natural fertilizers are manure and plant ash, which were prepared last night.

The three planted the seeds and smiled knowingly.

In addition to sowing, sweet potatoes and potatoes can also be planted by germination method.Now everyone is waiting, sowing is more convenient.

Lin Mu, Tian Wei, and Fang Ye learned to supervise and teach the rest.Some continued digging, while others sowed.It was inevitable that there was not enough fertilizer, so Yuanyou specially ordered a few people to pick up manure.If the fertilizer supply cannot keep up with the supply, it is their responsibility.

Facing the loess and back to the sky, no one finds it hard.

He still devoured his lunch, looking at the tidied up farmland full of confidence.

After a busy day, everyone returned home and lay on the bed contentedly.Tonight, in their dreams, the food growing all over the ground could not be eaten up.

Everyone was laughing in their dreams, laughing and weeping.It would be nice to be alive, if their family could see too...

Day after day, the seeds in the sacks seem to be dwindling.When everything is planted, the patches of cultivated land are more beautiful than anything else in the eyes of the common people.

On the second day, there was no need to go out of the city to dig the land. The men built the city, and the women were gathered to tailor clothes.

All the cloth in the city is gathered, not much, it is enough for one person to make a new suit.Everyone is busy on the main street in the city, building tiles and repairing houses.They still only eat one meal a day, a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun with thick noodles.

It's simple, but it gives them a head start in life.

Roughly speaking, a month has passed.The food in the grain depot was bottomed out, and Yuan You couldn't sleep at night because of his worries.

Seeing him meet with dark circles under his eyes, Zhu Qinghong smiled helplessly: "He is a born prime minister with a temperament of worrying about the country and the people."

"Don't dare." Yuan You hurriedly clapped his hands in salute, his heart pounding.The city lord said casually, or was he testing him?
Zhu Qinghong walked outside the door, stood under the eaves and looked at the sky.

The time has come and the sown seeds need water.

She smiled: "It's raining today."

Yuanyou looked at the sky, hesitant to speak.

I don't know when it started, the sky has always been gloomy, and it has not rained for a long time.

【Master, the weather in this world is abnormal.In some places there is no rain for a long time, in some places it rains all the time.There are also places that are ravaged by snow, hail, strong winds, and lightning every day.The reason is still being investigated, and it is predicted to be related to the proliferation of demons. 】

Before the catastrophe, the animals will be in chaos.

Monsters, in the final analysis, are mutated animals.Animals are more sensitive to danger than humans.

"Don't be so sad." Zhu Qinghong turned his head, "Let the common people prepare pots and pans to catch the rainwater."

Yuanyou opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

He saluted and retreated, and worked seriously.The city lord has been carrying water, could it be that the well water is different?

"Xiao Ye, prepare for artificial rainfall." Zhu Qinghong stood with his hands behind his back.Without a fixed water source, life can only be continued in this way.

【yes.Owner.Preparing for cloud seeding.ready.Fire a rain bomb.The launch was successful.Rain is expected in half an hour. 】

The main hall of the city lord's mansion.

The roof is lifted and a cannon appears.The fort fired rockets into the sky, straight into the clouds.

Dark clouds gathered quickly, and the already gloomy sky suddenly darkened.

Seeing this, Yuanyou trotted forward.Will it really rain?
Soldiers beat gongs and drums and shouted: "It's going to rain. Folks, get your pots and pans ready for water. It's raining!"

The common people were skeptical, but did not dare to defy.

They moved out pots and pans one after another, but they would not let go of anything that could hold water.

Just when everyone is busy.

A drop of rain hit the ground, followed by two, three drops... Everyone was surprised.It's raining?

It's raining!
Countless people cheered and moved things faster.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and no matter how happy they were, they hid in the house.They know better than anyone that they cannot get sick in the rain.Nowadays, medicinal herbs are scarce, and once you get sick, you can only wait for death.

So be careful.

Rain falls down the eaves, forming a rain curtain.Zhu Qinghong stretched out his hand with a smile, and took the cold rainwater.

After the rain, Tianchongcheng barely returned a wave of blood.

However, the problem of insufficient water source still exists, and we still have to find a way to solve it.

【Master, the nearby vegetation is not completely dead.When it rains, everything will surely recover.Does it rain every ten days? 】

"Yes." Zhu Qinghong withdrew his hands and shook off the water.The recovery of vegetation is good news, and wild vegetables are also a kind of food.

It rains all day and doesn't stop until night.

The women rush out the first batch of new clothes, and Wei Zhou collects them and distributes them all together.

According to the list, read the name and come forward to take it.

It's not my turn this time, just wait for the next time.There will always be, and no one will be less.

The person in the new clothes is screaming like a baby.Those who haven't received it are envious, and look forward to their share.

next morning.After the baptism of rain, the originally dead land sprouted buds.

The weeds are tenacious and green.

The weather rarely changes, so don't worry about the influence of climate.Zhu Qinghong ordered that Yuanyou arrange a group of people to plant several acres of cabbage.

On the day when the grain depot was emptied, Zhu Qinghong implemented the payment system.The common people can get a few copper coins for a day of work.

With copper plates, they can go to the restored shops on Main Street to buy food and eat.But currently there is only one, and the boss behind it is the city lord.Copper plates are different from the currency that people have circulated before, and will become a new currency.

The shop still buys porridge and steamed buns.

One copper plate for porridge and one copper plate for steamed buns.

People can earn three copper coins a day by working hard, saving money and still having a surplus.

Those who have suffered can save as much as possible, and some people want to eat an extra steamed bun.Within a few days, the people fully accepted the new currency.

The old currency was recycled, and Zhu Qinghong asked Ono Rong to make new currency.Some people saw the tricks inside and tried their best to do more work.

There are also women who have worked hard for several days to make a pair of shoes, put them on the ground and sell them at once.

Although it is said that rare things are more expensive, everyone has little money at present.A pair of new shoes can sell for three Wen.

When a person has new shoes, how many people are jealous.

Many people followed suit, taking time out of regular jobs to do something.

Sell ​​things, get a little money, and feel at ease.At this time, Zhu Qinghong listed the shops on the main street for rent, and at the same time, he was not allowed to set up stalls nearby.

The rent is not expensive, and anyone can rent it for a copper coin a day.You can rent it for a day or a few days.

Most people now visit Main Street and live nearby.There are customers, but there are not so many products to sell.

Some people will pile up the finished things and sell them in a day, but they can rent them for a day anyway.There are also people trying to find sources.

Soon, the second batch of clothes came out.

More and more people put on new shoes, and the main street is no longer depressed, but very lively.

Although everyone's life is still tight, somehow they are alive again.A set of clothes for each person was the last thing she offered for free.

In the future, they have to rely on their own money to buy it, including the food they planted.After all, the land and the house belong to her.

Yuanyou looked at the freshness of the people on the street, tears filled his eyes.Who would have thought that not long ago there were people sitting here waiting to die.

The business under Zhu Qinghong's store was handed over to Jiang Shan to look at.This kid has a smile on his face, a sharp tongue, and knows how to treat guests.

The only downside is that he is illiterate.Zhu Qinghong curled his lips into a smile, yes.A simple school appears.

A wooden board is placed in the store, and the doctor hat robot is responsible for teaching the class.

One copper coin per class, only ten numbers are learned.

At this time, the official ordered that if you want to continue working, you must know numbers.There is a unified examination, and only after passing the examination can new jobs be started.

The money in the hands of the common people has not yet been warmed up, and it is handed over to the school in a hurry.I'm afraid it's too late, and the regular job is gone.

This condition is not only implemented by the common people, but also by the soldiers.Those big bosses all had bitter faces, it was more uncomfortable than beating a demon.

Ten numbers, learned over and over again, no matter how stupid you are, you can learn them.After everyone has learned it, the school will start teaching new characters.

The same ten words, very simple.

In addition to working, the common people are studying during this time.Learn ten characters well, and another ten characters.When they reacted, they already knew a lot of characters, but the writing was ugly.Anyway, I can already write my name.

Corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes planted in the ground germinate.I watched it grow day by day, and fertilized it again.

The common people were all smiling.

The corn is drawn high, and the earing and corn cobs are formed.

The tall corn is very eye-catching from a distance.Just looking at it makes me feel happy.

When the corn on the cob was ready to eat, Zhu Qinghong broke off some of them himself.Let Ono make cornbread, try something new.

Yuan You and Wei Zhou ate it for the first time, and their eyes lit up.Cornbread has a very unique sweetness and is very delicious.

"The current corn is very tender and delicious to make. It can only be ground into flour when it is old." Zhu Qinghong smiled, "Let people pick some more. Tomorrow's shop will not sell steamed buns, but this. Because there are other ingredients , Let’s set a price of two cents each.”

Two pennies?Is it not expensive?Yuanyou couldn't help thinking, is it really not expensive to rent a shop for a penny for a day?

Whether it is expensive or not, tomorrow is the only one.

The common people will buy it if they don't buy it.Sure enough, after the steamed buns were replaced.The common people reluctantly bought it.I was pleasantly surprised when I tasted it, it was delicious.Zhu Qinghong curled his lips, it's not delicious, it has sugar in it.

The rain keeps the vegetation alive.

Many wild plants grow gratifyingly.Like linen.Yuanyou sent a group of people to collect.

Worried about demons, No. [-] escorted them back and forth.Take things back, and the women have a few more jobs.

When the corn is old, a large number of people go to collect it.

Break the corn, chop the stalks, and carry the leaves.Corn leaves are sent to the place where the women work together, and they are taught how to make baskets, mats, and straw sandals.

Straw sandals are in high demand, so naturally they account for the majority.

Submit it all when done.

Someone is responsible for drying the recovered corn, then threshing it, and then putting it into the grain depot.

Corn stalks are used as firewood and need to be stored.

Not long after the corn was harvested, it was time for the potatoes and sweet potatoes to be harvested.Everyone was busy again, and cooked food could be bought at the store the next day.
