Chapter 234 Five Hundred Stones

Ning Qingxi was also aware of this, so he hesitated.

But to be honest, that mountainside is indeed a well-kept secret.

Lu Cui also leaned over to look at the map, stood up and asked Ning Qingxi, "But this is on the mountain, if we build the workshop here, transportation will also be a problem. Cement and gunpowder both need ore."

Ning Qingxi explained: "I've already thought about this problem. Ores can be transported with moving pulleys. Master Lu should know that? Our city walls have already started using pulleys."

Lu Cui nodded in agreement.

Ning Qingxi said again: "There is also the problem of transportation. Two tracks can be laid, from the mountain to the foot of the mountain, and the mine trucks can be used to transport it down directly. This can save a lot of manpower and is extremely fast. But it needs a lot iron."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Chang Yuan. After all, Chang Yuan was the one who made the decision.

Chang Yuan looked puzzled, "What is the orbit?"

Ning Qingxi stepped forward and drew two schematic diagrams of the tracks and minecarts on the desk.

She pointed to the two tracks and the map of the minecart, "The minecart can only run on the track, and the minecart can not only go up, but also go down, so that the problem of transportation can be solved. And the transportation volume is not small."

"The entrance to the mountainside that was discovered before can also be sealed with cement, and another entrance should be dug. But the most important thing is to ensure Jinzhou, otherwise our frontier is well defended, and people will go around from Jinzhou. Neither can we."

Chang Yuan stared at the map closely, thinking, it seems that it is impossible not to send troops.That's okay, I originally planned to wait for the food to be ready to send troops to Jinzhou.

He raised his head to look at Ning Qingxi and Lu Cui, "You must pay attention to the workshop, I will send another team to inspect there, Miss Ning, Master Lu, you two should also pay attention when entering and leaving the workshop Be safe, I will send someone to protect you, wait a minute, after taking Golden State, the workshop will move to Jiuwan Mountain!"

Chang Yuan looked at the Jinzhou area on the map, and there was a flash in his eyes that he must win.

……

As soon as Li Dafeng came back from the next door, he saw two people standing in front of their house.

Seeing that the two were unfamiliar, she was still a little afraid to go in.

"What are you doing here?" Li Dafeng walked half a step into the door, and found that the two people didn't care about her, so she took another half step back and asked hesitantly.

"Ma'am, the two of us are the guards sent by the general to protect Miss Ning."

Li Dafeng's eyes were wide open, he glanced at the two of them, and hurriedly walked to Ning Qing's west room.

"Sissy! Sissy!"

Wang Xiujuan and He were sorting out the seeds in the yard when they heard Li Dafeng's voice yelling: "What are you doing? Get kicked out by dogs? They are all children's mothers and don't know how to be careful. They run outside all day, and the children don't care, right?!"

Li Dafeng was stunned by the scolding, and explained: "I waited for the child to fall asleep before going out."

Wang Xiujuan rolled her eyes, "Then do you know when the child will wake up? You can rest assured to let the two of them sleep by themselves for such a small child? If something happens to you, it will be too late for you to regret it! You still let a child as young as Yuan Bao help you?" Look? How old is he? What does a two-year-old know? He still needs someone to take care of himself!"

Wang Xiujuan really admired Li Dafeng, and she didn't know whether she was big-hearted or short-hearted, but she actually bought a two-year-old child with a piece of candy to help her look after the child, and then ran out by herself.

In Li Dafeng's heart, he actually thought it was nothing, the bed was so big, the child would not turn over at this point, if someone heard crying, someone would naturally call her.

But she saw that Wang Xiujuan was angry and did not dare to refute.

Ning Qingxi finished her work and planned to come out to help her grandma dry the seeds, when she heard the commotion outside, no, it should be said that her grandma unilaterally scolded people.

"Grandma, what's the matter?"

When Li Dafeng saw Ning Qingxi, he remembered what he was doing when he came back.

He also forgot to be afraid, and asked excitedly: "Xixi, are those two people outside your bodyguards? General Chang gave it to you?!"

Ning Qingxi didn't refuse Chang Yuan's kindness for his own sake. The county is mixed with good and bad people. If these people want to inquire about the workshop, the best targets are Lu Cui and her, so she has a firecracker on her body. But in the end she was just a child, if someone knocked her unconscious while she wasn't paying attention, she wouldn't even have a chance to use a weapon.

"That's right, there are too many people in the county. These two people were sent to me by the general."

Li Dafeng looked excited, she knew Xixi was promising!

Chang Yuan sent someone to protect Ning Changrong and Li Dafeng would not be so excited and surprised, but now it is Ning Qingxi, an 11-year-old girl who is protecting her!
Although she is the only daughter in the family and is doted on by her parents and elder brothers, people in this era have some patriarchal ideas, including Li Dafeng.

But now Ning Qingxi used her achievements to prove to her that women can also do better than men.

Li Dafeng couldn't help thinking, if her daughter grew up to be half as smart as Ning Qingxi, no, half as smart as Ning Qingxi, then she would be satisfied!

Every day at the dinner table, Wang Xiujuan could hear the two brothers Ning Lao Er and Ning Lao San talking about things on the street. In short, although there were minor frictions, there were no major disturbances.

When she first heard that Chang Yuan had specially sent someone to protect her granddaughter, she was a little worried.

"What's going on? Why do you need to send someone to protect you?"

Ning Qingxi comforted: "Grandma, you also know what I do in the workshop. Many things in our workshop cannot be disclosed at will. General Chang is also prepared for fear that some people will catch my attention. Don't worry, I will I’m in the county every day, and there are many people around me now, so I won’t travel alone.”

Wang Xiujuan comforted her secretly, this job of rebellion is really difficult.

She only hoped that the world would be peaceful soon.

Thinking of this, before the meal time, she took a bag of seeds and explained a few words to her family and left.

……

General's House.

"Ma'am, is this the sweet yellow pumpkin we ate at your house that day?"

Fu Linjun picked up a pumpkin seed and asked.

Wang Xiujuan put down all the seeds in the package, "Yes, these are pumpkin seeds. Pumpkins can be eaten as vegetables or food. They are not small in size. If you choose the best pumpkin seeds to plant every time, the pumpkin seeds will The quality of the pumpkins will get better and better, and the pumpkins will grow sweeter and bigger."

Fu Linjun also understood what she meant, just like keeping the best seeds for grain.

"It can be eaten as a vegetable or as food. This is really a good thing. How about the yield?"

Wang Xiujuan also probably knew from her granddaughter that there were no pumpkins in ancient China, and that they were produced in the Americas. The yield in the Americas should not be low, with an yield of more than 3000 stones per mu.

But now it is in the Central Plains, a superficial dynasty, and they are located in the north. Originally, Wang Xiujuan didn't have an acre of land, at most half an acre of land.

She estimated the yield and said: "If the planting is good, the yield per mu is estimated to be about [-] shi." Wang Xiujuan tried her best to keep it small, otherwise she would not have planted this amount by then, and those who didn't know would think she deliberately made a false report.
