Chapter 154: Building the Second Floor
After hearing that the third child of Chai agreed to serve as the guest Qing of the Shen family, Shen Ruiling couldn't help being a little excited.
Although it may be said that the means used are a little disgraceful, but the interests of the family are the greatest, and Shen Ruiling is not limited to these.
Now the family is developing rapidly and needs all kinds of talents.
Cultivating immortals and hundreds of arts, the Shen family relies on the glory of their ancestors to cultivate talents in the four arts of alchemy, talisman, utensil refining, and formation.
In many other aspects, the family lacks talents, and it is unrealistic for the family to cultivate slowly at this stage, so the only way is to introduce talents.
Since that day, Chai Laosan has stayed on the Yangshan fish pond, managing the fish pond while waiting for the arrival of his family.
In the Qingyunmen fishing grounds, after seeing the third child of Chai for a few days, the disciple in charge did not report it to Shen Jinghua, and took out the roster and removed the third third of Chai.
Handy disciples like this disappear more than a dozen every year, either offending some people and being killed, or getting into the belly of monsters.
In addition, Zongmen dispatches a new batch of handymen to the fishery every year, so the disciples in charge don't care at all, they just go through the motions.
After another period of time, under the arrangement of Shen Jinghua, a French boat left the Nanhu Fishing Ground and headed towards Yangshan. On this boat was the family of Laosan Chai.
In this way, although the Shen family fishery suffered a disaster, the family suffered heavy losses.
But he also recruited an experienced fish farmer, and Shen Ruiling believed that he would soon be able to make up for the loss.
...
After a few months, the family fish pond has returned to stability, and the newly invested fry have begun to grow.
Both Lingtian and Taoyuan on Yangshan have enough manpower to develop, and the income is gradually increasing.
At the same time, the rainy season in Linhai County has come again, and the torrential rain for dozens of consecutive days made the originally calm Zhenze Lake suddenly surge.
A large amount of rainwater flowed into Zhenze Lake, causing the lake water in Zhenze Lake to swell up and begin to flood all around.
As the water of the lake skyrocketed, the monsters in the water also began to make waves, and they began to attack the villages and towns around Zhenze Lake, devouring mortals.
Yangshan, in Shen Ruiling's small courtyard.
"Fourth Elder, how is the situation in Binhu Town?"
"The guard of Binhu Town is reporting that there are two second-order monsters outside the city, and the rest are first-order monsters, but there are not many. I have already sent my clansmen over!" Shen Huanyan took out a jade slip and handed it to Shen Ruiling's hands.
Shen Ruiling opened the jade slip and looked at it, and at the same time asked:
"Where is Yangshan?"
"Several depressions at the foot of the mountain have been flooded. There are three second-order monsters in total, so it's not a big problem!"
Hearing that the disasters in these two places were not particularly serious, Shen Ruiling felt relieved.
It can only be said that Shen Ruiling already had an indelible memory after experiencing the flood nine years ago.
However, that kind of flood may not happen once in a hundred years. At present, a flood composed of two or three second-order monsters is normal.
However, although this kind of flood does not pose a great threat to the town, it does so every year, which greatly hinders the recuperation of mortals and the development of villages and towns.
Every time there is a flood, the family also needs to spend a lot of energy and spiritual stones, which is also a huge expense every year.
"It seems that this levee must be repaired!" Shen Ruiling said to himself.
"Is it too early, we have only come to Yangshan for more than a year, and the preparations are not enough. Is it too early to use a lot of manpower and material resources now?" Shen Huanyan said with some worry.
"I understand this. We can take it slowly. When the rainy season is over, we will repair the levee of Yangshan first, so that we can open up more spiritual fields at the foot of the mountain."
"Okay, I'll go out and have a look first!"
said,
Shen Ruiling took out the Rainbow Sword and flew into the air.
Because of the heavy rain, Shen Ruiling had no choice but to use his spiritual power to hold up a protective spiritual shield and slowly fly at a low altitude.
Shen Ruiling came to the foot of Yangshan Mountain and saw that the lake water had already poured in from several concave banks, and the turbulent lake water was roaring like a wild horse running away.
In the turbulent tide, there were also several monsters mixed in. With this skyrocketing tide, these huge monsters could also go ashore and climb up the Chaoyang Mountain with their teeth and claws.
As soon as Shen Rui Ling Ling decided to pinch, the Tianhong sword under his feet flashed red, and beams of sword light shot out, killing the monsters, leaving behind a pool of red-stained lake water.
After dealing with the monsters outside Yangshan, Shen Ruiling searched for the shore of the lake and flew towards Binhu Town, and at the same time began to observe the terrain along the way.
...
In this way, under the protection of the foundation-building cultivator Shen Ruiling, both Yangshan and Binhu Town passed the rainy season safely.
Except for a few mortals in Binhu Town who were unfortunately washed away by the tide, there were no casualties.
A month after the rainy season, the weather began to improve, and Shen Ruiling began to plan the construction of the embankment.
The lake embankment to be built this time is about fifty miles long, all of which are low-lying areas not far from the foot of Yangshan Mountain.
According to Shen Ruiling's plan, it is necessary to use the natural mountains as much as possible to block the lake water, so that the lake embankment and the mountains beside the lake are integrated into one, and together play the role of resisting floods in the rainy season.
This area of Yangshan is the mountains surrounding the lake. There are many cliffs around the lake, which are natural flood control dams.
All the monks of the family need to do is to block the low-lying mountain passes with rocks and build embankments in some flat areas, so as to effectively resist the lake and monsters.
In this way, it can not only shorten manpower and save financial resources, but also shorten the construction period by more than half.
...
"Now there are thirty-five clansmen on the mountain, excluding female relatives and a few elderly clansmen, there are a total of twenty-three male clansmen.
I'm afraid these manpower is not enough, these spiritual fields and Taoyuan also need manpower! "
At this time, Shen Ruiling once again felt that the number of cultivators in the family was insufficient, and he couldn't let go of anything.
At this time, the family seems to have fallen into an infinite loop, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Because monks are not enough, they cannot help mortals build dams, so that mortals can rest and develop their population.
Because the mortal population is insufficient, the number of monks who can harbor spiritual roots has decreased, and the number of family monks has also become rare.
"In this way, let the clansmen form a group of five, each group builds the lake embankment for a month, and a month later, the next group of clansmen is replaced.
Take turns to alternate, so as not to delay the farm work in the spiritual fields of each family too much. "Shen Ruiling thought for a while and said.
"we can only do this!"
...
Under the arrangement of Shen Ruiling, a lake bank gradually appeared along the shore of Zhenze Lake.
Although the construction of the lake embankment is very slow, it can only be built less than half a mile in a month, but after Yangshan is used as a base, the clansmen have no worries.
The development of Yangshan is a century-old plan. By building a little every month, one day, a levee with a length of hundreds of miles will appear along the shore of Zhenze Lake!
On the other hand, after Shen Ruiling announced the task of building the lake embankment, he retreated and broke through.
Two months later, Shen Ruiling naturally broke through to the second floor of the foundation building.
Counting the days, Shen Ruiling has been building the foundation for five or six years, and it may take some days to break through the barrier on the second floor of the original foundation.
But after drinking Dao Enlightenment tea last time, it not only made him understand the essence of [Remnant Rainbow Strike], but also sublimated his state of mind, which improved his understanding of both the exercises and the Dao. After a lot, the bottleneck will naturally break through.
Although Shen Ruiling at this time was only on the second floor of the foundation building, his spiritual power was not inferior to those of the veteran monks who had been immersed in the early foundation building for many years.
"It feels good!" Feeling the new realm, Shen Ruiling said lightly.
