From mentioning AK47 to farming in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 81

"Proposed order."

Looking at such a big lake, Zhao Tai was full of thoughts on how to use it to maximize the benefits.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, You Kan was already holding a pen and notebook in his hands.

"Let's find out the source of the lake's water by hand, and drain the water from several places. If the gap is so small that the craftsmen can't seal it up, the water is related to drinking for the next generation, and the outflow should be reduced."

"Also find out whether the water from Zhaozhuang's drinking horse river gathers here. If the water comes out from here, it can't be blocked and the flow can't be blocked. It's enough to maintain the original state. This order should be implemented as soon as possible."

You Kan has a good memory and is not good at sketching, but he wrote it down verbatim.

After seeing it, Zhao Tai had no problem, so he asked people to go down and distribute it.

In fact, the entourage repeated the report to the intelligence department of Heishan Village through the walkie-talkie, and asked them to pass it on to the corresponding department for processing.

Then Zhao Tai came to the flat ground by the lake along the road, and picked up the ground and weeds with a knife.

It was found that there was a layer of soil covering the surface, and either gravel or a layer of stone underneath, with no river sand at all.

But this is correct. Yinma Spring exists in the form of a lake, and there must be more than one outlet. Even if it rains heavily, the lake will not flow like a river and cause erosion on the shore.

There is no river sand and clay, which is normal.

Looking at the topography of the mountains and rivers around the lake, they are all visible rocks and hills. In other words, some trees and shrubs can grow in the cracks in the mountains, but there are no conditions for the growth of big trees.

Compared with the outside, except for the water, there is nothing here. There are no conditions for reclaiming wasteland, so it can only be described as barren.

But this is exactly what Zhao Tai wants. The open space is not suitable for planting, but it can be developed for living, building arsenals and educational places.

If the land is really suitable for planting and fertile, Zhao Taicai will really struggle.

"But the stones here don't seem to be so easy to get."

Zhao Tai stood on a towering stone with obvious signs of erosion as he stood up and down, looking at the surrounding stone layers.

The wind and rain have washed the stone mountains into different shapes, but there are water grooves on the surface of each stone, and cracks are rare.

These stone hills are more like lumps or thorns growing out of the overall rock mountain than stones that lie on the ground and can be moved.

If you want to get it, you can only smash it hard, or burn it on it to let it explode the cracks, no matter which one is very laborious and time-consuming.

Tens of thousands of people want to build houses and live in peace, and stone has become an indispensable building material.

Although it is feasible to cut down trees to build a house, it is not strong and it is easy to cause fire.

"It's time to make explosives. Although it's better to build brick houses, it's not as convenient as using local materials."

The Zhaozhuang brick and tile kiln at the foot of Montenegro has already tripled in number, and the output is calculated based on the total number of brick and tile kilns manufactured except for the first month.

But after that, a batch can be fired every two days, and the brick and tile embryos are dried at different times, so that the operation of the two kilns will not stop.

For this reason, a drying shed covering a large area was built next to the brick kiln to prevent the bricks and tiles from being destroyed in rainy and snowy weather.

For these bricks and tiles, the water of the Yinma River has been used to the extreme, and it has dried up in the downstream and no trace of water can be seen.

Because of this, Zhao Tai asked people to build two dams.

The last dam stored water, increased the water volume and water level, left two water outlets, and built two waterwheels there.

Dig and build ditches to divert water into Zhaozhuang to provide water convenience for brick and tile kilns.

Of course, the waterwheel was copied by Zhao Tai. Originally, the waterwheel appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty where Zhao Tai is now.

The waterwheel at this time was called a rollover, also known as a keel truck. It was like a conveyor belt and required human power to drive.

The emergence of rollovers began with Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, who asked a man named Bi Lan to make them.

Later, it was transformed by Zhuge Liang and used for agricultural planting by the Shuhan Group.

There are also people named Kong Ming Che, which makes no sense. After all, Zhuge Liang only modified and applied it, and it is not his original invention.

It's new after renovation, so it makes sense to name it after him?Then it'll be fine.

Zhao Taichao's water wheel is an upright barrel wheel, like a round windmill. It can run by itself without manpower in places where water flows.

Of course, manpower can also be used, and it is only used in stagnant water areas.

It is different from those modern objects that craftsmen cannot understand or create.

The existence of the barrel cart made the craftsmen sincerely fascinated. They talked about it with great enthusiasm when it was built, and were amazed when it was completed and put into operation.

When he mentioned it, he blew at Zhao Tai, looking at that cart was like looking at a god.

Who dares to say that something that can benefit the country and the people is not a divine thing? At least this thing can be made as long as you know the principle.

Water pump?Forget it, if Zhao Tai is given ten years to develop it, he may not be able to create it independently.

A large number of bricks and tiles were produced, which brought the construction capacity under Zhao Tai's rule to a higher level.

In addition to being used in housing construction, it is also used in other places.

For example, near the magnetite, iron smelting furnaces are already being built, and charcoal has never stopped firing when roads are opened.

The land was not cultivated, and before the rear area was built, the land was temporarily forgotten by Zhao Tai, relying solely on his blood transfusions to hold on.

During this period, the Craftsman Department was the busiest and hardest working, and it was also the department with the largest number of people besides the military.

The degree of perfection is far from comparable to departments such as criminal law, education, and household registration management.

Even the Ministry of Intelligence and the military cannot compare. This refers to the personnel and systems of each department, not the number of people.

After all, compared to people, who can compare to the army.

While building the iron furnace, Zhao Tai also agreed to the next step submitted by Qi Zhou and the Craftsman Department as soon as the road was completed.

That is to transport bricks and tiles to Yinma Spring, plan a place to build a kiln to burn lime, and use it to build various residences.

cement?Zhao Tai didn't have that much energy to transport so much cement, just like the strategy he had set.

You can be inferior to future generations, but you must learn to be self-sufficient. It is obviously not possible to rely on him alone, except for technology.

"This model has the sense of sight of a black-hearted boss. The land is not cultivated and planted, but it only needs to provide the necessary living materials for construction."

"For example, there are several types of food and cloth."

However, what Zhao Tai set up is a work-for-relief system, which is based on personal work income, which is something like work points, and then exchange work points for materials.

You can exchange as much as you want, Zhao Tai will provide enough, and exchanging labor income for ample food and clothing is definitely not empty talk.

It is precisely because of the large-scale construction that the surroundings of Yinma Spring must be carefully planned. In this regard, Zhao Tai did not immediately announce a reward in another world.

Because he has not yet ascertained the surrounding terrain, the source of the water, the outlet, even if there is a cave, he must not miss it, and it must be used reasonably.

The water needs to be diverted and canals built, and the arsenal needs to be hidden and safe. These are all things that need to be considered.

"There's also the issue of electricity."

Zhao Tai looked at the Yinma Spring, and thought of the undiscovered water outlet, and the word hydroelectric power lingered in his mind.
