After arranging everything properly, Jiang Pengji heaved a sigh of relief.
However, it was not the time to be completely at ease.
Now that the world was in chaos, the only way to protect oneself was to strengthen oneself.
She still had to prepare some city defense equipment to turn the entire Xiangyang district into an impenetrable fortress. Then, she would not have to fear the harassment of the Tsing Yi army.
The honest Liyun noticed the tiredness on everyone's faces and asked curiously.
Jiang Pengji sighed, "The Xiangyang district has gone through three major disasters. Now, everything is being done. There is a shortage of people everywhere. The people need to be properly settled, the destroyed houses need to be rebuilt, and the wasteland outside needs to be reclaimed. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will starve to death next year. Capable people do more work … Even if I'm tired, it can't be helped. I can only use one person like two and try my best to do it. "
Liyun was a helpful person. Otherwise, he would not have helped his troops resist the Tsing Yi army's pursuit.
Not only that, he did not realize Jiang Pengji's sinister intentions in inviting him to the Xiangyang district.
Listening to Jiang Pengji's sincere words, Liyun's heart softened. His warm and kind nature could not help but show itself.
His eyes were filled with sincerity. He asked Jiang Pengji, "Is there a shortage of people here, Langjun? Although I am not good with brains, I have some strength. If you need my help, feel free to let me know. "
Finishing his words, he smiled shyly.
He knew the district magistrate was not a small official. His words implied that he could not wait any longer.
Feng Jin, Xu Ke, and Meng Hun did not leave. They secretly looked at Liyun as if they had seen a ghost.
Which corner of the world did this simple-minded child come from?
The Xiangyang district was hell on earth. They worked overtime until they wanted to die.
The few of them had boarded the pirate ship and could not get off. Why did Liyun want to harm them and seek abuse?
Jiang Pengji said bluntly, "There is, but I'm afraid that a celestial being like Langjun is not suitable for it."
Liyun blushed and said, "You don't have to call me Langjun. Just call me Li Hanmei."
As for the description of "celestial being", it really made him feel embarrassed.
Yun was a beauty.
Li Yun's courtesy name, Hanmei, did not let his face down.
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony." Jiang Pengji replied readily. Under the criticism of the audience in the streaming room, she still opened her mouth. "There is indeed something that needs to be done. If Han Mei doesn't mind, I'll have to trouble you with this matter."
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of hardship."
Liyun was an honest child, this could be seen in all aspects.
When he picked up his gun, he was an aloof Prince Charming. When he put it down, he was a naive and sweet boy who could be bullied by Jiang Pengji.
In the end, Jiang Pengji left the task of reclaiming the land to Liyun.
That's right, she had sent a male god with outstanding marksmanship, who was like a killing god, to farm!
Da Lao Rao Ming: "Hehe, streamer, come on, tell me your home address, I will definitely send you razors!"
Shanzaotiao: "Oh my god, I can't imagine Idol Li working in the fields like a farmer."
Buwan Jiageng Zhixiangsi: "Host, you're really good at letting a future general on the battlefield work in the fields."
Why don't you just sit there and fly to the sky?
Feng Jin and the others were tired. They wanted to leave, but they suddenly remembered something important and told Jiang Pengji.
"Oh right … My lord, the bricks have been produced."
Brick kiln?
"The bricks have been produced? What's the result? "
Jiang Pengji held her heavy head. Hearing Feng Jin's words, her mind suddenly became clear.
"The craftsmen have taken out the bricks, but … whether they can be used or not, my lord, you have to look first."
After all, it was his lord's creation, she had the most say.
"Let's go to the brick kiln to take a look."
Jiang Pengji gave up on the idea of resting and brought the others to the kiln.
The old man who fired the pottery was now the head craftsman of the kiln. Hearing that Jiang Pengji had arrived, he hurriedly led the others out to welcome her.
"Since my lord left for the war, three batches of bricks have been fired. Now the fourth batch is being fired in the kiln."
The head craftsman of the kiln led Jiang Pengji to see the first three batches of finished bricks.
The bricks were greenish-gray in color and were neatly stacked into a pile, taking up a large area.
The first batch of bricks had more cracks, but the next two batches had fewer cracks. They looked more orderly and beautiful.
Jiang Pengji weighed the bricks in her hand, then split them open with her palm to check the lines inside. "Almost there …"
Overall, the quality of the bricks fired in the last few batches was not bad.
It was considered a success for the first firing to have such a quality.
She could also see that the quality of the later batches was much better than the previous ones.
It was evident that the head craftsman of the kiln took this matter seriously. After firing a batch, he tried his best to find the flaws in it and then improved it further.
"Continue firing. When the entire Xiangyang district starts to take shape, you will be greatly rewarded!"
The head craftsman of the kiln was beaming.
The amount of bricks needed to rebuild Xiangyang district was not small.
In order to increase the scale, Jiang Pengji specially ordered people to build two more kilns to fire day and night.
The coal needed for firing bricks was gone. She also ordered people to purchase it from the neighboring Chengde county at a relatively low price.
With the bricks, it was easier to build houses. With the addition of thousands of laborers, the construction progress was sped up.
"Friendship is worth three coins. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity."
A month later, Jiang Pengji took out a few brand new land deeds and house deeds and placed them in front of the few of them.
When Feng Jin and the others saw it, the nerves at the corners of their mouths almost broke.
There was no other reason. They were all too clear about the location of the land deeds.
"Three coins."
Qiguan Rang took out three coins from his sleeves and took one of them.
Feng Jin touched his money pouch and the corner of his mouth twitched. It was either gold or silver. It was difficult to find three copper coins.
Fortunately, Xu Ke had some in stock and lent him three coins.
Not long after, the few land deeds were divided up. The last few were almost snatched.
What a joke. If they didn't snatch, the good spots would be taken by others.
One-story buildings were popular nowadays. Houses were built very quickly.
However, considering the size of the house, Jiang Pengji combined the architectural styles of Hejian County and Shangjing. With the advice and suggestions from her friends in the streaming room, everyone worked together to make full use of the space. They made an exquisite and elegant two-sectioned and three-sectioned house of two sizes.
The area was not very big, but it was exquisite and elegant. It was neat and beautiful.
Even Feng Jin, who was used to seeing the world, could not help but praise the small houses.
The first batch of small houses was about to be completed. Jiang Pengji played a selfish trick and gave benefits to her subordinates who worked overtime until they cried.
The land deeds originally belonged to the district headquarters. Jiang Pengji bought one with one coin and sold it to her subordinates for three coins.
She had no choice. She was poor. She could not reward her subordinates with anything good.
However, it did not matter. She had a house that was about to be completed.
House and land deeds were sold at a discount of three coins.
The viewers in the streaming room almost cried their eyes out when they saw it.
