Two teams of well-armored cavalry were guarding a giant carriage, walking slowly along a simple road. These cavalry were working in pairs, running abreast. They were tall, with serious eyes, and there were rose patterns engraved on the fine iron mail.

The carriage escorted by the cavalry is four meters long and two meters wide. The green teak carriage is edged with red copper. The red copper skin is polished to a discernible light. It is also engraved with exquisite rose patterns, making it look gorgeous and heavy.

The infinitely powerful giant rhinoceros dragged the heavy carriage forward steadily, the carriage shook slightly, and the soft moans made the four female trainee knights on the left and right sides of the carriage blush with embarrassment. Following a soul-stirring long roar,

Groaning, the carriage returned to calm, and these graceful female trainee knights breathed a sigh of relief, and giggled again when they saw the envy and love in each other's eyes.

The daily life of local nobles is relaxed and monotonous. Territory affairs are handled by village chiefs, town chiefs and officials at all levels, and family affairs are handled by butlers. In order to protect the hunting grounds, the hunting festival can only be held once a year. The rest of the time is spent on polishing fighting spirit.

, that is, working hard to reproduce the bloodline. Many nobles have more than one lover, but Sylvia is not among them.

The corruption of nobles’ private lives refers to ordinary nobles, and knight nobles are just the opposite. When high-level knights communicate with the elemental sea, they must strengthen their beliefs, otherwise they will be destroyed. First of all, the knights’ beliefs cannot be chasing power.

That kind of power is comparable to the sea of ​​elements. Knights who pursue power will be assimilated by the sea of ​​elements immediately. They cannot rely on lust, because it is too simple for knights and can be obtained without reaching the peak. Most of them can be obtained by the sea of ​​elements.

Knights believe in protection, protect the kingdom, protect the family, and protect the family. Therefore, knights do not abstain from sex, but they do not indulge in sex.

However, for a long period of time, the peak knights whose hearts were washed away by the elemental sea have no ordinary people's emotions except for their own protective beliefs, and have become indifferent. In order to regain the joy of life, and to step into the legend

In the field, peak knights often find one or two lovers to soothe their cold hearts.

Sylvia entered the peak realm with the belief of protecting her family, and she also encountered the same problem. However, Sylvia is an extremely rare flaming golden knight. The flaming golden knight was called a divine knight in the wizarding era.

The gods are powerful and cannot be touched. The Flame Golden Knight is sterile and will destroy the elemental bits of the knight's partner, turning them into ordinary people. After Sylvia reached her peak, in order to help her get rid of the influence of the elemental sea, the York family

The old Duke ordered the orphan of his eldest son that whoever marries Sylvia will be the heir of the family. In the end, Embisse York accepted this responsibility. As a result, he received the title but became an ordinary nobleman. He lost his knightly form.

The Duke of York was full of flaws in Sylvia's eyes and was kicked away by her. From then on, Sylvia found pleasure in planting roses until Victor appeared in her life.

Victor, who has awakened the blood of the Moon Elf, is physically comparable to the Silver Knight. This is the reason why Sylvia is willing to get close to him. However, for Sylvia, a lover is just a dispensable adjustment.

, the belief in protecting the family that really moved her. In this regard, Victor gave her too many surprises, purple cane wine, giant brick kilns, rock bricks, each one made her excited, and the agricultural and animal husbandry system and water conservancy system

The irrigation system made her even more excited, and Sylvia couldn't help but finally sent it to her door.

In the carriage, Sylvia's starry eyes were slightly closed, enjoying the afterglow of pleasure. Her soft and flawless skin was a charming pink color, and her snow-white and slender legs were resting on Victor's body. After a moment, she opened her eyes.

With his blue eyes, he saw Victor lying motionless on the takin pad, pretending to be dead. He couldn't help but chuckle, and stretched out his slender hand to touch Victor's forehead. A cool air flow spread from his forehead to his whole body, and Victor just felt divine.

Feeling refreshed and exhausted, he could no longer pretend. Seeing that Sylvia had no further plans, Victor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when she raised her hand to pull a rope, Victor was stunned.

Shocked, he quickly said: "No! I'm here to help you!"

This rope is connected to the bell outside the carriage. When the bell rings, the female trainee knights outside will come in and help them wash and change clothes. Victor is not happy for strangers to peek into his privacy.

"I'll do it!"

Sylvia smiled like a flower. After putting on the spider silk dress, she dressed Victor neatly. Victor didn't say anything. He had rubbed hands with Sylvia once or twice, but he had never seen Sylvia before.

With such enthusiasm and flattery, Victor enjoyed the tenderness but also felt a little uneasy. Seeing Victor's strange expression, Sylvia immediately understood what he meant and said angrily: "Do you think

Can’t I even put on clothes?”

Victor said coquettishly: "I'm a little uncomfortable with the Peak Knight dressing up for me."

"Didn't you get used to it when you slept with a peak knight?" Sylvia glanced sideways at Victor.

Victor touched his nose and said honestly: "I'm still a little uncomfortable. I'm afraid I might be pinched to death by you accidentally." Seeing that Sylvia's eyebrows tended to stand up, he added: "

But who made you so beautiful?"

"hehe."

Sylvia smiled coquettishly and found the most comfortable angle to lean on Victor's body. Whether true or false, Victor's love words always made her happy.

"Victor, the stream reservoir you designed is very practical. How did you come up with the idea?"

The working people of China build dams and embankments in low-lying areas surrounded by mountains on three sides to intercept flash floods and form reservoirs. They can irrigate the land during droughts, divert water during floods, and raise fish to generate electricity. There are many benefits. However, reservoirs on the earth are often tens of meters long.

Deep, the dams are all made of reinforced concrete. Victor does not have such conditions. He can only build small control gates, ditches two to three meters wide and small reservoirs eight to ten meters deep to achieve the purpose of water storage. This kind of

The water storage capacity of small reservoirs is quite limited, and it can irrigate up to about 8,000 acres of cultivated land. Fortunately, it is low-cost and safer.

As for how he came up with it? Victor was really hard to answer. Farmers in this world have been farming for thousands of years but have not developed an advanced farming civilization. It seems a bit unbelievable, but in fact there are deep-seated reasons. Just like the indigenous Africans.

And the Native Americans, the rich animal and plant resources allowed them to fill their stomachs without too much land management. As a result, they did not achieve anything for tens of thousands of years. The cruel annexation wars of ancient China promoted the development of civilization. In order to unify

In the Six Kingdoms, the Qin State built the Zhengguo Canal and implemented standardized weapons production. It had a population of three million and could mobilize an army of one million people, but its area was only 300,000 square kilometers. And humans in this world have no large-scale weapons at all.

War will naturally not give birth to a brilliant civilization.

Victor thought for a while and replied: "I didn't think about it, I saw and heard it."

"What you saw and heard?" Sylvia looked at Victor in surprise, rubbed his hair, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't show off!"

Catching Sylvia's hand, Victor smiled and said: "When it rains, what do you usually do? Arrange flowers? Sleep? Enjoy the rain? I used to be so idle, but after becoming a lord, I started to inspect it myself

My own territory, because I have neither a steward nor an official. I saw many small rivers flowing into the Blackwater River from the west, but they don't exist when it doesn't rain. I just need water, and I wonder where the water comes from?

So I asked the local people, and there happened to be mountain people among them. They told me that when it rains, the rainwater in the mountains gathers from high places to low places, forming flash floods, which flow into lakes or rivers. The idea of ​​building stream reservoirs

That’s how it came about.”

"Then, you had a bolder idea. Divert water from the Jinshui River into the reservoir to form a stable water system and irrigate millions of acres of farmland. But you didn't plan to tell me. If Master Edwin hadn't seen through your plan

, how long are you going to keep it secret?" Sylvia raised her eyebrows and said with a half-smile.

Victor really has no intention of directly selling his artificial river plan to the York family. He still has many questions that he has not yet figured out. If you want to build a large-scale water conservancy project, the right time, right location, and people are indispensable. The right time is the experience of the fisherman on the river bank.

The vacuum period after the ant disaster. The geographical advantages are the Jinshui River, the mountainous area of ​​​​Human Horse Hills, and the Black River. People and people are not just human and material resources. In essence, the artificial river is the product of centralization rather than the product of feudalism. Even if

Under a centralized system, it is not uncommon for villages to have bloody fights over water problems, not to mention the lords who are working in their own way. The artificial river involves a series of issues such as repairs and dredging, etc.

How do the more than ten lords of Centaur Hills coordinate with each other? It can be said that the resulting artificial river management and coordination mechanism has shaken the foundation of the feudal system. This change in the political environment is unpredictable, and Vicki

I just want to concentrate on developing my strength and don't want to cause big turmoil, but if I don't bring the Jinshui River here at this time, there will really be no store after this village.

"I haven't thought it through yet," Victor said bravely.

"I didn't think about it either!"

Sylvia came close to Victor, exhaling like blue, and her blue eyes were full of smiles and appreciation. Victor clearly realized that Sylvia also thought about the problems caused by the artificial river, and then listened

She said: "Honey, we don't have to worry, do we?"

"The stream and reservoir are enough. The artificial river that runs through the Centaur Hills will be released first. I can help you build the first control gate, the first artificial canal, and the first reservoir. However, the artificial river led by Randall

You can build it yourself, and I can give you some support. But you have to agree to a few conditions."

"What conditions?" Victor was overjoyed.

"First, you have to help Master Edwin complete the site selection of the stream reservoir and prepare for the future connection of the artificial river."

"Second, after the artificial water conservancy and irrigation facilities in Randall Territory are completed, half of the grain production in Randall Territory will be open to the York family for sale, and the price will be 30% of the market price."

Victor thought for a while and nodded: "No problem. I designed the agricultural, animal husbandry and water conservancy systems to increase the strength of the people and horses in the hills and prepare for the next ant tide."

It is the consensus of the human nation that Ant-Man invades Centaur Hills again, and the traditional tactics of knights and castles can no longer cope with the large number of Ant-Man that cannot be defeated. The best way to face the fearless ant colony is to block them in

At the entrance to the Great Swamp. However, Sylvia and Victor believed that the ants might bypass the three fortresses and launch an attack from the north of the Centaur Hills. In order to deal with this situation, the Centaur Hills must have more fortresses and castles.

and soldiers. Therefore, Centaur Hills needs more people. This is the starting point of Victor’s territory development strategy and the basis for Sylvia and Victor’s close cooperation. Victor’s secretive attitude makes Xi

Sylvia was very dissatisfied.

"Third, if you have any ideas, tell me in time! Otherwise, I will take Phoenix away!" Sylvia stretched out her white fingers and waved them in front of Victor's nose.

Victor smiled bitterly and nodded: "I promise!"

"fourth......"

"And the fourth one?!"

Victor was shocked, but Sylvia said seriously: "I hope you keep the secrets of the agricultural and animal husbandry system, water conservancy and irrigation facilities, giant brick kilns and rock bricks. From now on, the agricultural and animal husbandry system and water conservancy projects are Master Edwin

The invention of the giant brick kiln was the invention of the Interior Secretary Anthony. I know that these creations are enough to leave a deep mark on you in history. But I don’t want anything to happen to you. Not to mention anything else, just the stream reservoir and the control gate will suffice.

Make the Na'vi people crazy, and they will try their best to kidnap you, so..."

"No problem! I agreed." Victor said repeatedly.

Sylvia thought that the most difficult one was that Victor agreed so simply. She looked at Victor's face carefully, shook her head and said with a smile: "You don't look like a 19-year-old nobleman at all, but more like a

Totally...like...forget it, maybe genius's ideas are different from others."

What Sylvia just wanted to say was that Victor's thinking was very much like that of a mature lord, and she felt that such a metaphor demeaned herself, so she changed her words. Victor smiled slightly, these things were not originally

He invented it, as long as he gets benefits, what's the use of fame?

"Tell me, what kind of compensation do you want? How about I choose one of the female apprentice knights to be your personal maid? They will definitely be happy to do it." Sylvia said with a sweet smile.

"No, no!" Victor shuddered and waved his hands repeatedly. Are you kidding? He has so many secrets that even Nicole has to hide. How can other female knights get involved?

"Just help me convince the priest sent by the church to supervise."

"My dear, your problems are not a problem for me." Sylvia said: "I have ordered that the northernmost fortress be built first, and the people from the church will also come there. As for the fortress here, it will be built in two years.

I will leave 10,000 people for Phoenix. The kingdom will transport stones, but will not provide food. Their food will be supplied by our York family for two years, so you have two years to use these manpower. Victor asked

Let me see what you are capable of!"

"I won't let you down!" Victor said confidently.

"By the way, Sauron Wimbledon has sent people to build a castle in his territory, and the territory to the north of you borders Sauron's territory. I suggest you send people to garrison there as soon as possible to prevent the territory from being invaded by them."

Sylvia reminded.

"I see."

Victor frowned. He wanted to come over to the northernmost territory of the Centaur Hills. As the base for the free trade group to go north, he had no time to take care of it. He did not expect that Sauron would become a neighbor of that territory, and

Sauron's territory also isolates the 300-square-kilometer territory from the Centaur Hills. Now, Victor must consider sending people to station there, otherwise he will have to take the mountain road if he wants to send people there later.

Sylvia sat upright from Victor's arms, knocked on the wall of the car, and the motorcade gradually came to a stop.

"Victor, you should go back. I don't want you to spend the night in the wild."

I'm extremely sorry, my mind felt like it was filled with paste. I wrote three chapters in three days and crashed two. The man-made river is an extremely important point, and it brings about changes in all aspects, including economy, military, politics, ports, etc.
Chapter completed!
