Lord Helanza

With the end of the rainy season, the weeds on the Beigou pasture gradually withered and the water level in the Beigou water pool dropped significantly every day. There are enough pastures stored here, this water pool will eventually dry up, and some finger-long silver scale fish swim in the water in groups. At this time of year, a youngster from Wall Village will run to the water pool. A dam was built on the side. As long as the water in the dam was scooped dry, and barefoot in the muddy water, you could pick up this annual silver scale fish.

The surface layer of Paglos Mountain is a huge limestone rock formation. Because of this special rock formation, rainwater quickly penetrates into the ground when it falls, and almost no vegetation grows on this rock formation. He became the Desolate Land of Mount Pablos.

Although some silt has gathered at the bottom of this water pool in Beigou Grassland, it still cannot prevent deep water from infiltrating into the ground.

A group of yellow sheep drank by the pool. A four-wheeled carriage filled with volcanic ash drove slowly along the edge of the Beigou grass field. The carriage husband waved a whip and started hiding in the grass. Flock of copper-billed finches.

Five or six big children were catching fish on the edge of the water pool. One of the big children saw the carriage husband on the four-wheeled carriage, and quickly pushed his companions around him, whispered: "Hey! Conan, go up there. That person in carriage is your father......"

Another child who was fishing in the mud pit quickly lifts the head, and when he saw the silhouette on the ravine, he showed a very surprised expression and said quickly, "Ah! He seemed to have said that he would drive the car to the mountain to pull the volcanic ash today."

Several children stood in the quagmire together, moved towards the top of the ravine and the carriage husband kept waving.

At this time, the husband of the carriage also noticed the big children fishing under the ravine, so he stopped the four-wheel carriage and stood on a high place and shouted to the big children under the ravine: "You guys Several must pay attention to safety!"

"Got it!" The older children responded enthusiastically.

In the vision of the husband of the carriage, several neighboring villagers carrying simple luggage rushed to Wall Village along this road. When they passed the Beigou pasture, their eyes were full of envy. Pastures for stocking livestock are rare in this Desolate Land.

Old Conan drove the carriage past the neighboring villagers, because this road leads to Wall Village, so he couldn’t help asking: "Everyone...are you going to Wall Village? "

These neighboring villagers stopped and replied happily: "Yes, we heard that the Mayor Bright of Wall Village recruited bricklayers to build a reservoir in the village. Everyday all I’m paying for settlement, so I’m going to try one’s luck in Wall Village. It’s better to get a job here than to go to Helanza City."

Looking at their dark faces with wrinkles on the opposite side. Old Conan hesitated, thinking about whether to use the carriage to carry them a section of the road, but the car was already filled with a whole car of volcanic ash. Conan hesitated for a moment, and then said: " Oh, it is indeed necessary to build a reservoir..."

He hesitated, after all, he did not carry the neighboring villagers.

Facts have proved that Old Conan’s choice is very wise. Carriage walked a section of the road ahead and saw four or five batches of neighboring villages going to Wall Village to find change. Villagers, these people will ask Old Conan about the construction of the reservoir.

……

The masons of Wall Village rushed directly to the sulfur mine in Pubao Mountain on horseback. The remaining youngsters will walk first, and wait until the masons arrive at Pubao Mountain. The horses were sent back, and these youngsters rode to Pyobao Mountain. The sulphur mine alone almost occupied all the males in Wall Village. Therefore, the artisans who built the reservoir were almost all from the surrounding villages.

The specific candidates were personally selected by the old village chief. Just after the harvest festival, these craftsmen came to Wall Village with simple luggage.

The old village chief simply arranged these craftsmen. The craftsmen, led by the old village chief, went to the upper reaches of the village where they were going to build a reservoir. This place had been planned with white lime in advance. The outline and the white lines on the ground are still clearly visible. Then the old village chief described the approximate size of the reservoir to these bricklayers.

There are already piles of volcanic ash and limestone powder on the construction site here. First, the laborers will sift the volcanic ash and limestone powder, and then mix them together according to the ratio required by the old village chief. The other part of the labor force began to cut a deep trench around the white and gray markings of the reservoir. Next, the steel bars purchased by Surdak were made into a cage, placed in the trench, and then poured with cement. Laying the foundation...

Selena’s notes clearly record the specific requirements and practices of each step. The old village chief is the organizer of the construction of the reservoir. He wants to direct nearly one Hundreds and fifty craftsmen operate efficiently. Surdak needs to pay these bricklayers and laborers a salary of 85 Silver Coins every day, so he has to use every labor force to make the entire reservoir site become Crowded.

An unforeseen problem comes one after another. For example, the amount of volcanic ash and lime powder originally hoarded is seriously insufficient. The trenches we dug were not wide enough, and the limestone excavated by the trenches had to be ground into powdered stone, etc. Even if the old village chief was accompanied by his capable assistant Selena, these trivial matters kept him almost barely touching the ground.

The old village chief pinched his waist with one hand and almost made his voice hoarse at the construction site of in a frenzy.

……

At the moment Surdak is riding a horse through the mountain pass, and there are obviously a few more robber bodies hanging on the cross at the top of the mountain.

The surrounding villages have a very firm attitude towards robbers, and the effect is very obvious. Although these robbers are a group of ruthless characters who are used to edge of a knife licking blood, they have disrupted the life of Desolate Land. The inherent pace of life of the villagers, although most of the villages here are impoverished, and the villagers are struggling with food and clothing, but this does not mean that they are a group of lambs to be slaughtered.

On the contrary, the mountain people who can survive on this Desolate Land, in the bones have a kind of fierce strength.

And the robbers are foreign intruders after all. If they gather into a team, or they can use the scimitar to slaughter these natural villages, but because they were killed by Surdak alone in the mountain pass before A band of robbers, these robbers were scattered into various natural villages, and now the villagers are slowly finding out, breaking them one by one, and the killed robbers will be sent to the top of the mountain here.

Suddenly, the wooden cross on the top of the mountain pass has turned into an artificial jungle. The effectiveness of each village against robbers is so good that Surdak absolutely didn't expect...
