Chapter 71 Farming Ideas
Although Ye Yan is also very interested in planting matters, they still have to be busy going back to cook medicine, so according to Zhou Xu’s wishes, this area is basically left to them. There are three people in the farming team.
Although it has been a while since the establishment of the farming group, the number of members expanded from one single seedling to three people, which was just yesterday.
As for actual planting experience, it is basically zero.
Before, he followed their leader's wishes and plowed the ground there to accumulate fertilizer.
Although the work is a bit tiring and smelly, basically nothing can go wrong. To a certain extent, life can be considered comfortable.
And now, with the new tasks being issued, as the leader of the farming team, the pressure on Wang Dashu really came up all of a sudden.
“Relax, don’t be afraid of failure, everyone in this world will fail, the important thing is how to learn from failure, let yourself grow, and avoid the next failure, come on! I look forward to your results! ”
Seeing the nervousness of the other party, he smiled and encouraged him.
Excluding the newcomers who have just joined, Zhou Xu is now basically a god-like existence in the eyes of his tribe members.
One incident after another made the tribe members worship him from the bottom of their hearts.
It is no exaggeration to say that in the eyes of the tribe members, what their leader said is the truth!
Even if he just utters a simple sentence of encouragement, he can make the other party feel flattered.
Of course Zhou Xu himself knows this, so he has never been stingy with his encouragement and praise in the tribe.
With a few simple words, the tribe members can fully activate their BUFFs. Why wouldn't he do such a thing?
This time too.
Zhou Xu’s words simply made Wang Dashu find his backbone in an instant, and he felt confident.
However, what he knows about planting is limited after all. He has basically said everything he knows, and it is unlikely that he will be of much use if he continues to stay here.
To put it bluntly, in the future, Wang Dashu and the others will have to slowly ponder and accumulate experience on the matter of planting.
After leaving the farming area, Zhou Xuzheng looked at the blueprint in his hand and walked along a specific route while thinking about things in his mind.
On this route, he planned to dig a ditch.
Farming is indispensable for watering. There is a lake near their camp, which is not too far away. When there are few fields, it is okay to carry water for irrigation.
However, as the size of the fields continues to expand, the shortcomings of this method that are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and low in efficiency will inevitably be exposed.
Under this premise, if you want to solve this problem once and for all, the best way is to dig ditches and bring water in directly.
And this is undoubtedly a very laborious task.
Of course, Zhou Xu was not in a hurry at the moment.
The few herbs are more than enough to carry water for watering every day.
But even if there is no rush, the project of digging the ditch should really be started slowly.
With this idea in mind, Zhou Xu turned around and mobilized manpower to establish the construction engineering department.
Actually speaking, the logging team should be regarded as a subordinate force of the Construction Engineering Department.
So after the Construction Engineering Department was established, Zhou Xu changed hands and sent the logging team over.
If the tribe wants to engage in development and construction, the Construction Engineering Department is definitely the core of the core. After all, theoretically speaking, all construction facilities must rely on the Construction Engineering Department.
But at this stage, there is only one thing the Construction Engineering Department has to do, and that is to slowly start digging ditches. As for things like building houses...
Zhou Xu had thought that as long as the tents were fully upgraded to wooden houses or thatched houses, their tribal camps would basically be officially upgraded to A village?
But the problem now is that he does not study architecture. When he thought about it carefully, he found that many of his problems could not be solved.
In fact, even if you really study architecture, in this primitive environment, it is probably difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.
In this state, if he talks big and tries to build a house for granted, it will most likely fail. In the end, this matter will just be a waste of precious manpower, material resources, and time.
Comparedly speaking, digging canals is a relatively simple labor task. After digging, it will be clearly beneficial to the subsequent farming plan, and it can be used in any case, so that the trip will not be in vain.
“I have drawn a rough route for you, and placed a stone at intervals to mark it. You can dig according to this route.”
Holding a bone spear in his hand, Zhou Xu gestured while talking to the three members of the construction engineering department in front of him.
Yes, at the moment, excluding the logging team, there are only three people in the construction and engineering department, and these are the people he transferred from various places.
It’s just digging ditches, so there’s no rush. Zhou Xu estimates that three people digging in shifts should be enough.
If there is another big project in the future and the workload of the construction engineering department increases, he will allocate more manpower, but it is not needed yet.
"Start digging from the farming area, but there is one thing to note. Come with me."
While talking, Zhou Xu led three people from the construction engineering department to the lake.
“Have you seen this section? Don’t dig out the section next to the lake yet. Do it later. Because as soon as you dig it out, the lake water will pour in. Then it will affect the subsequent work and also Yes..."
After talking about a few points to pay attention to, I looked up at the position of the sun in the sky. It was estimated that it was only about two o'clock in the afternoon.
There are at least two to three hours before dinner time, so we can’t waste it.
After signaling to the three people in the construction engineering department to start working, Zhou Xu got up and walked towards the camp.
First, I paid attention to the condition of the patients, and at the same time, I also paid attention to whether there were any new patients within the tribe. Then I went to the breeding area of the Ministry of Agriculture to confirm the breeding status of the hare.
During this process, time passed quietly, and the members of the transportation team returned to the Black Moon Camp smoothly.
“Chief!”
After seeing Zhou Xu, they quickly put down the coal ore they had carried back and ran to Zhou Xu.
"How's it going?"
Faced with Zhou Xu's endless questions, all the members of the transportation team were very excited.
“The speed has indeed become faster.”
After receiving this answer, Zhou Xu checked the position of the sun again.
At this moment, the sun has slowly set in the west, but it is estimated that there is still an hour before sunset.
In the past, when the transport team rushed back to the camp, the sun had already set halfway, but today it was obviously earlier than usual.
The reason for this situation, if nothing else, is probably due to the chemical reaction produced by the mantra of ‘strengthening speed’ that he obtained before and his talent of ‘evolving leader’!
Just like the talent of 'Eye of Insight' gave tribe members better vision, when he obtained the mantra of 'Enhancement Speed', Zhou Xu was wondering if this mantra would It can also bring some passive benefits to him and the tribe members.
But he doesn’t have any professional equipment now, and coupled with the ‘speed’ thing, if the improvement is not very obvious, you may not be able to feel it yourself.
Under this premise, if you want to get this answer, who is the best test candidate?
There is no doubt that it is the transport team that needs to travel between the two camps every day!
