Chapter 167 The First Batch of Weapons
Summer is gradually drawing to a close.

The temperature difference between day and night in the north is huge. The sun is so hot at noon that you can peel off a layer of skin, but you need to put on jackets in the middle of the night.

The melons in the melon fields have all been harvested, and the fields have been turned over. The manure from the septic tank and the ashes of the vines have been turned over evenly.

The construction of the reservoir has also been basically completed. It is preliminarily estimated that the water storage capacity is sufficient to support the irrigation of thousands of acres of land.

The reservoir is divided into two parts, light and dark. The slope design is convenient for collecting rainwater. The bright part is like a lake, and the dark part is like an underground lake, which can reduce water evaporation.

There is a huge drop between the two places, and the water wheel is used to help complete the circular flow.

There are six diversion outlets, and the opening of the gate is judged according to the irrigation demand.

In the event of flooding, the local disaster can be greatly alleviated.

Xu Ji is very satisfied with this result.

She has read historical materials that a certain country once went astray by destroying the environment in pursuit of development. After realizing the mistake, it spent a hundred times the time and manpower to make up for it.

Therefore, she resolutely refused to take a detour, and asked people to plant trees and grass according to local conditions, especially to reinforce the grid on the hillside to prevent falling rocks and torrents that are rare in many years.

Because of the low rainfall in the area, the fruits are very sweet.

Even if they are not yet fully ripe, the fruits that have begun to turn red are not very sour.

Mother Wen has already had someone pick it up and go back to make fruit wine.

The fruit orchards they planted themselves also ushered in a bumper harvest this year, and the heavy fruits bent the branches.

Most of the peaches picked first were half sold and half given to the army, and the rest were made into preserved fruit.

Xu Ji inspected it here, and the mine side invited her to inspect the situation of the smelting furnace.

Xu Ji is actually not very good at it, but she has an amazing memory. Relying on the knowledge she made up before departure, she provided guidance. The craftsmen combined their own experience to build a mining, transportation, sorting, smelting, forging An integrated arsenal.

The name was given by Xu Ji. In the early stage of construction, more people were employed, about 1 people were working at the same time.

Knowing that the weapons forged here will be in their own hands, the sergeants who came to work were very motivated.

As a result, the project was completed more than a month earlier than expected.

The purity of the first batch of smelted iron was very good. First, a batch of arrowheads were made, and the craftsmen were asked to make bows and arrows, and then forged knives and guns.

Xu Ji quietly added the special materials he got from the synthesis dish, and the toughness of the forged swords and guns increased several times.

When the first batch of knives and guns were forged, Song Qingzhai came to see them in person.

It just so happened that the first batch of [-] arrows had also been made, and the same [-] knives and guns promised by Xu Ji were delivered at the same time.

Song Qingzhai tried it himself, and the smile on the corners of his eyes and brows couldn't be stopped, "Aqi, you really helped a lot!"

Xu Ji didn't take the credit, "It's all thanks to the craftsmen."

"Without your guidance," Song Qingzhai raised his eyebrows, "How could their skills make such a leap? Don't be too modest."

Xu Ji smiled slightly: "What can I do alone? It takes everyone to work together to achieve such results.

"Because I'm a layman, I didn't dare to open all the furnaces. You should inspect them first. If they pass the test, I will ask them to open the furnaces at the same time. Next time, we can probably deliver [-] pieces.

"I mean, first let everyone have a guy to deal with the daily training.

"I want a better one, we will study it carefully in the future. I don't know what the big brother wants."

Song Qingzhai was even happier, "You have considered it properly, so let's do it! Another piece of good news for you, we are already preparing to recapture the three cities, and it just so happens that your weapon will come in handy."
