I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 88 Brother Yi is back!

But on the future development plan of the saltworks that he drew, in the center, houses are arranged in a circle.

And around it, there are hundreds of brine wells densely distributed from far to near.

These brine wells are all connected by bamboo tubes, leading to the brine drying pond in the center, and finally to the round houses in the center.

The entire salt field is like a huge spider web, all positions are orderly, noisy and organized.

The magnitude of the project is astounding.

Sun Yanming put it away carefully, put it in his arms carefully, and said to Guo Yi again: "Erlang is a great talent! Sun, I admire you very much!"

Guo Yi accepted this courtesy.After all, it took him several days to draw it bit by bit, and it took a lot of effort.

"Special Envoy Sun, there are Liuhe Village and Hedong Village nearby, and two more villages to the east. When autumn comes, the reeds on both sides of the Liuzhi River will be dry and yellow, providing another source of fuel.

At that time, reeds can be purchased from the villages on both sides of the river.

When the nearby villages get rich, you, Sun Yanming, will become famous in Jinghu. "

Guo Yi spoke with great pride and drew a big cake for him.

Sun Yanming was already slightly drunk at this time, and he also aroused the depression in his chest. He clasped his hands boldly and said: "Cheng Erlang's auspicious words!"

The next day.

Eunuch Sun clocks in to work on time.

Tell the world with boundless heat that today is another sunny day.

Even these alkali- and drought-tolerant plants in the saline-alkali land, many of them have wilted, drooping their branches feebly.

The method of blocking the lake to store water has already begun to take shape.Judging from the impact layer by the river, the water level of the Liuzhi River has risen a lot.

However, not only the Liuzhi River, but also several small rivers upstream of the Han River connected to it were blocked. Without the injection of these small rivers, the water level dropped a lot.

It is foreseeable that if the drought continues, the Han River will be blocked next.

Sun Yanming sent Guo Yi to the shore, took a boat back to Jiangling, and went down the Han River.

On both sides of the river, there are densely packed bobbin carts, and there is one every about 50 meters.Very spectacular.

And this, in disguise, accelerated the reduction of the water level of the Han River.

At the same time, it also shows that the drought is intensifying, and the people are doing their best to irrigate the fields and store water.

If there is no more rain, the water level of the Han River will drop further, and these waterwheels will be useless because they will not be able to reach the water.

Two days later, the destination was reached, and the fleet arrived outside the water gate of Jiangling City.

Logically speaking, Guo Yi is now an aide of the King of Chu's mansion, and he should report to the King of Chu first after returning.

However, Guo Yi comforted himself, I haven't officially taken office yet, so I'd better go home first.

So, after getting off the boat, he greeted the team leader and ran back to the village with the pillars.

From a long distance, I saw the two billowing black smoke in Yanglin Village.Get closer, and the square, white house with holes in the walls also comes into view.

"Yo! Brother Yi is back!"

I don't know who saw him in the distance, and couldn't help but yelled.

Then, it seemed like a pot was boiling.

"Brother Yi is back!"

"Brother Yi is back!"

Several fast-legged half-children ran back to the village to report the news.

Old Ba Yang is determined and is leading people to make bricks in the open space in front of the brick kiln.When several people heard the yelling, they immediately stopped what they were doing, and gathered around at the same time.

They all had smiles on their faces, and greeted in a mess: "Brother Yi, you are back!"

"Brother Yi, you have been away for more than a month, and you are all tanned!"

Guo Yi didn't dare to neglect, and responded one by one with a smile.Then, looking at the old eighth Yang Lizhi, he asked, "Uncle eight, how is this brick kiln? Is it normal?"

When Yang Lizhi saw him asking, he couldn't help but smiled and nodded: "Okay, it's enough for the village to build new houses. I have saved a lot, and I plan to sell them!"

"Yeah." Guo Yi nodded and said: "The idea is right. If you want to sell it, then dig out another cave!"

"Hahaha! That's exactly what I mean."

While talking and joking, Yang Huiyong brought someone over and shouted happily: "Brother Yi! You are back!"

"Brother Yi, you came back just in time. We just fired a kiln of porcelain bowls here. Would you like to come and have a look?"

Oh?
When Guo Yi heard this, he regained his energy immediately, followed behind Yang Huiyong and the others, and walked to the small cave nearby.

Yang Huiyong said happily: "Brother Yi, we have burned ten kilns for more than a month since you went out! We don't rest every day, and we don't rest every day, and we burn kilns when we don't even pull billets. Even when we go to the mountains to dig stones, we Find someone else to do it.”

While speaking, he walked into the cave.The residual temperature inside hadn't dissipated completely yet, and the heat wave hit our faces.

On several shelves inside, more than a hundred large white porcelain bowls are neatly stacked.

Guo Yi carefully inspected them one by one. Although there were still many defective products, some were deformed by burning, cracked by burning, and the glaze surface was cracked and blistered.

But the yield rate has greatly improved.

"Yeah! Very good! Brother Yong, you guys are making great progress!" Guo Yi praised with a smile.

At the same time, he also made up his mind to take them to Jiangling City and reopen a small cave dwelling there.

At that time, they will be responsible for drawing and firing, and they will only be responsible for coloring.

Hearing his praise, Yang Huiyong scratched his head in embarrassment and laughed, not knowing how to respond.

When he was young, Yang Liwu, the fifth old man who was in charge of the rabbit house not far away, also rushed over when he heard the sound, and when he saw him, he immediately put on a smile on his face: "Ah! Brother Yi, it is really you who are back! "

"Fifth Uncle." Guo Yi also called out with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, Yang Liwu couldn't wait to pull his sleeves, and shouted anxiously: "Go, go! Go to the rabbit house and see how your fifth uncle is doing!"

The rabbit house is just to the east of the billet drying yard, sharing a large pond with the billet making yard.

And just beside the pond, two large hearths were built with bricks.This is his order, the rabbit cannot drink raw water, it must be boiled.

Following Yang Liwu into the rabbit house, there was no strong and pungent smell inside.Rows of rabbit cages were cleaned very cleanly.

"Look, here are all newborn rabbits in the past month or so. There are about 100 female rabbits, all of which have lost their cubs! We roughly counted, and there must be more than 600 cubs!" Yang Liwu said As he spoke, the excitement and pride could not be concealed in his tone.

Good guy!
Guo Yi was taken aback. He had only been away from home for more than a month. After returning, there were more than 1000 rabbits, big and small?

And this is still a few days away from the beginning of summer, and a quarter of the goal has already been completed...

"Yes." Guo Yi nodded in satisfaction, and then ordered: "The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so we must do a good job of ventilation and sanitation. I will ask Uncle Shisan to make some wind-powered fans, and then find some wormwood Make incense."

　Another speechless and annoying serialization...

　　Two consecutive episodes...

　　Everyone, give me some strength, come to a wave of recommendations and follow-up reading!
