Chapter 14 Assigning Tasks
Li Jincheng lowered his head and handed over his hands.
Li Ergou is curious and admiring.
White Deer discovers the New World.
Such a weird triangular perspective is formed.
Zhao Lei and the village chief naturally didn't notice anything strange about the people around them. After all, their focus was still on this topic.
The village chief said anxiously: "Your Majesty, since we don't use magic, do you have other methods?"
Zhao Lei thought about it for a moment: "Have you ever heard of a waterwheel? It is a tool that can transport river water to fields for irrigation."
Li Jincheng raised his head: "Your Majesty, do you mean to overturn the car? Jincheng has read it in the book. But Your Majesty, if you plan to use the car to overturn to solve the village's water source problem, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
p>
At this point, Li Jincheng was slightly disappointed, and then continued: "Jincheng has also considered whether turning over the car can solve the village's drought problem. But the river closest to the village has to go into the mountains. The mountain spirits in the mountains
There are so many ferocious beasts that we simply cannot reach there.
Moreover, overturning the car can only divert the river water from high altitudes to the lower reaches. The terrain of our Lijia Village is not suitable for this at all, so Jincheng gave up the idea at first."
Zhao Lei was slightly surprised.
It seems that the level of mortals in this world of cultivating immortals is not too backward.
At least there is a waterwheel.
But that was only the first generation of waterwheels.
"You don't have to worry about this level. As long as you use the axles well, you can achieve the effect of low water and high water. Even if the terrain is really unfavorable, we can also build an ox-turn rollover or a donkey-turn rollover, and use animal power to drive the rollover, which can also achieve low water flow.
The effect of high gift."
Li Jincheng was confused after hearing this.
He has never heard of a cow turning over or water turning a car overturning.
But that didn't stop him from being shocked by the effect Zhao Lei said!
If the tiger monster in front of us can really solve the problem of low water and high water, it will really benefit the people of the world!
How many fertile fields cannot be cultivated due to the terrain?
If these lands are liberated and the people have more land to cultivate, doesn't it mean that the people will have more food and will not go hungry in the future?!
Li Jincheng was so excited that he even forgot about etiquette.
With wide eyes, he walked up to Zhao Lei and held Zhao Lei's big hand: "Your Majesty, really?!"
Zhao Lei threw away his hand with a look of disgust: "Isn't it true? You'll know after the rollover is built?"
Li Jincheng didn't mind Zhao Lei's disdain and nodded heavily: "Yeah! Sorry, Jincheng was rude."
Then I stood aside, feeling anxious.
I can't wait to drag Zhao Lei to make a car rollover immediately.
Zhao Lei ignored him and continued to talk to himself: "As for the mountain spirits and beasts, that is not a problem. When the villagers are building the rollover, as long as the three of us brothers keep their breath there, no beasts will dare to approach and cause trouble.
”
Having said this, Li Jincheng was even more sure that Zhao Lei was not just talking casually.
This made him look forward to it even more.
The admiration in Li Ergou's eyes deepened even more.
Bailu's aunt's smile became even brighter.
Although the village chief didn't quite understand what Zhao Lei was talking about, he saw Li Jincheng's reaction and realized that Zhao Lei should have found a solution to the water source. He quickly bowed and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Lei waved his hand: "It won't be too late for you to thank me when things are done. Also, the drought and winter problems need to be solved, but we can't stop reading! Starting from tomorrow, young people or children under the age of twenty,
Regardless of whether you are a boy or a girl, you must come to the ancestral hall to study and read. After morning classes, I will go back to help you with the agriculture. After finishing the processing, you adults, no matter how old you are, must also come to study. In short, take turns to do things and allocate time
Read and read."
Li Jin was in trouble as soon as he established the horse.
He also wanted to ask Zhao Lei to build the overturned car quickly.
"Your Majesty, this..."
"Stop this, I'm not discussing with you, I'm just informing you."
Li Jincheng could only nod in agreement.
Later, Zhao Lei asked the village chief: "How many poultry are there in your village? Have you done any statistics?"
Zhao Lei would ask this, naturally not without reason.
Previously, there was only one little demon on this mountain, Squirrel Spirit. Whether he hunted by himself or regularly provided meat to the Long Live Fox King, the resources of the mountain forest were very sufficient and would not affect the ecology.
But now that the three Zhao Lei brothers have transformed, things are different.
White deer and black sheep are no longer just vegetarians.
In addition, Zhao Lei’s appetite is bigger than that of squirrel spirit.
If we only feed the three brothers, the resources of this mountain forest can barely support them.
But if you add meat, it won't be enough.
If things continue like this, they will definitely eat up all the animals in the mountains and forests.
It would be fine if they were ordinary monsters. They just need to go down the mountain and catch a few humans and go back to work with them.
But Zhao Lei is absolutely unacceptable.
After all, in the final analysis, his inner soul is still a human being, and he really can't do it if he wants to talk to humans.
So he had no choice but to take his idea to the village.
The village chief did not dare to neglect Zhao Lei, a living bodhisattva who could change their destiny, and quickly replied: "Your Majesty, there are still several hundred chickens and ducks in total. But as for pigs, the village sold a lot of them last time in order to avoid corvee labor.
, there are only a few left now. There are some cows and sheep. May I ask the king, I wonder why you ask like this..."
I heard Zhao Lei ask about poultry.
The village chief still has some expectations.
If Zhao Lei had his mind set on poultry instead of eating them, he would still be happy to give these poultry to Zhao Lei.
Zhao Lei did not answer him.
I just made my own calculations in my mind.
According to Squirrel Spirit, the amount of meat he serves each time needs to weigh 2,000 kilograms. That is almost the weight of eight adult tigers or eight pigs.
This is not a small amount.
If we really try to capture a species, we might as well endanger the human race.
Like the most numerous wolf in the forest.
The average weight of a wolf is only 50 kilograms.
If you submit a confession, you will catch 20 wolves.
They need to pay twice a year.
No matter how many wolves there are, they will be wiped out, let alone other animals?
And, more importantly, Zhao Lei does not plan to offer only 2,000 kilograms this time. He plans to offer 4,000 kilograms in exchange for the Demon King's forgiveness.
After all, Squirrel Spirit was killed by the three brothers.
They should try to understand it no matter what?
Even if you can't see the Demon King, it is still necessary to prepare extra meat to bribe the little demon who comes to collect the meat.
Otherwise, if others go back to add salt and vinegar and report them, won’t the three brothers start their escape?
After some calculations, Zhao Lei felt that there were still not enough poultry in the village.
Perhaps it will be enough for him to pay the tribute this time.
But what about next time?
So he looked at Li Ergou, took out the silver coins he had found from Huang Fugui and others, and said, "Look, the silver coins here are enough to buy as many pigs as there are feeds. Buy as many as you can."
