"Isn't this move a good one? Apart from those of us who know the truth, who would doubt His Majesty? I'm afraid that the other princes wouldn't be able to intervene in the intelligence department. Therefore, it's impossible for them to know that this matter was arranged by His Majesty. They would only investigate and see who was the one who tried to assassinate His Majesty. This way, no matter how they investigate, they wouldn't be able to trace it back to His Majesty. His Majesty would naturally be able to calmly arrange this matter. "
"That's true. Imperial Father can purge the palace openly and no one will suspect him. In the future, no one will be able to know what he does. Speaking of which, Imperial Father's move is really brilliant."
"Of course, but I think His Majesty won't just let it go. He will certainly make some other preparations. As we said before, I'm afraid that His Majesty will focus on the military, especially the source of soldiers. I'm afraid that the recruits will start training. But in this way, you won't be able to manage the recruits. If His Majesty trusts you, he might let you manage the provisions, which is to say, the fish farm."
"Ha, this is interesting. In the Mixed Spirit Continent, I made a fish farm. It's not difficult to make a fish farm here. It seems that this task is simple."
"Hehe, of course, it's simple. This time, there are a few people who came with us. Although they aren't as good as the head, they can still improve some plants. We can ask them to help improve the water plants." "I don't think it's necessary.
You may not know much about the fish farms here in the Ice Ocean Continent. In the Ice Ocean Continent, fish farms are generally divided into two types. One is the natural seaside fish farm. The fish farm here is actually on the edge of the Ice Ocean Continent. The method of establishment is similar to the fish farms in the Mixed Spirit Continent. The other type is the inland fish farm. These fish farms are also divided into two types. One is the natural warm current fish farm, and the other is the artificial fish farm. "
"The natural warm current fish farm is generally built around the natural warm current. The water temperature there is very high, so it won't freeze. The water plants also grow well, so it's the best place to raise fish. However, because the water temperature there is high, some sea beasts often appear and destroy the fish farm. Therefore, it's troublesome to manage it. The other artificial fish farm is to use magic to open up a fish farm. Then, in the fish farm, we raise a kind of fish. This kind of fish can generate heat. With this kind of fish, the water temperature there will rise and the water won't freeze. Then, we raise other kinds of fish there, so it can become an artificial fish farm."
It's a kind of fish that eats aquatic plants. It's not very precious. Generally, inland fish farms have this kind of fish. It's very convenient to raise them. Without this kind of fish, the Ice Ocean Continent would run out of food. We can use this kind of fish to raise broad-leaved fish and plant aquatic plants that Old Zhao improved. This way, broad-leaved fish can grow fast and have enough food. Therefore, it's easy to build a fish farm. "" Alright, I'll listen to you.
"Alright, I'll listen to you on this matter. However, we'd better not prepare anything for now. We have to wait for His Majesty's order. If we make preparations in advance and His Majesty knows about it, His Majesty might be suspicious. At this moment, the most important thing is to not arouse His Majesty's suspicion. Your Highness, it's getting late. You should go to bed early." After saying that, Tang Ming stood up and bowed to the jade flood dragon before leaving.
After Tang Ming left, Jade Jiao Dragon sighed and said, "I didn't expect Imperial Father to use this method. It seems like Imperial Father also feels that things are difficult."
Yu Daban nodded and said, "But what surprised me is that Mister Zhao's hands are really long. Even His Majesty's intelligence department has people working for him. This is quite formidable." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "But what surprised me is that Mister Zhao's hands are really long. Even His Majesty's intelligence department has people working for them.
Jade Jiao Dragon smiled bitterly and said, "It seems like we've underestimated Old Zhao. Being able to go outside for a few years and leave a large country to his subordinates without any trouble. Even his subordinates still respect him. This isn't something that can be done with kindness. Amazing, truly amazing."
Yu Daban nodded and said, "Yes, Mister Zhao Hai is really amazing. Not to mention anything else, just look at his subordinates. If they weren't Zhao Hai's subordinates, any one of them would be able to hold their own. But now, all of them are under Mister Zhao Hai's command. Moreover, they're following him without any complaints. This alone is amazing."
Jade Jiao Dragon nodded, then he smiled and said, "Forget it, there's no need to think too much about it. We're not going to do anything to Old Zhao. To be honest, although I think I'm good, I can't do what Old Zhao did. He managed such a large country, and in the end, he's about to ascend. That's really infuriating."
Yu Daban smiled, then he turned to Jade Jiao Dragon and said, "Your Highness, you should take a rest. If His Majesty really wants you to do something, I'm afraid he'll send a message in a few days. When that time comes, you'll be very busy."
Jade Jiao Dragon nodded, then he turned to Yu Daban and said, "Yu Daban, if Imperial Father wants me to set up a fish farm, where do you think he'll send me?"
Yu Daban said in a deep voice, "Based on the current situation, I'm afraid that it won't be too far from Ice Jade City. This is because there aren't any big fish farms around Ice Jade City. If we build fish farms around Ice Jade City, we can directly provide food for Ice Jade City."
Jade Jiao Dragon nodded and said, "That's possible. Alright, let's not talk about him anymore. Let's go to sleep. I don't know when I'll be able to do something." Then Jade Jiao Dragon and Yu Daban returned to their rooms to rest.
The next day, the investigation of the Imperial Palace began. Before long, some eunuchs and maids were executed. Even some of Yu Yunlong's concubines were sentenced to death. The investigation could be said to be very thorough. Nearly one-fifth of the eunuchs and maids in the Imperial Palace were killed. This ratio was really shocking.
But what made people feel strange was that after the investigation, the number of people in the Imperial Palace decreased according to the usual practice. They should've added some new people to the Imperial Palace. But in the end, they didn't. The number of people in the Imperial Palace remained the same. This made people feel strange.
The Ministers asked Yu Yunlong to add more people to the Imperial Palace several times. But Yu Yunlong rejected them with the reason that the situation in the continent was unstable and that the country should focus on preparing for war. Because of this, the Imperial Palace became like an iron cylinder. No news could be passed out. This made people feel uncomfortable.
Right after this incident, Yu Yunlong ordered Jade Jiao Dragon to build a fish farm outside Ice Jade City, a big one at that. This fish farm could provide at least half of the edible fish for Ice Jade City every year. In other words, Jade Jiao Dragon's newly built fish farm could provide half of the food for Ice Jade City every year, which was amazing.
After receiving this order, Jade Jiao Dragon immediately took action. First, he asked people to check the surroundings of Ice Jade City to find a suitable place to build a fish farm. Finally, he found a suitable place. There was an iceberg in the west of Ice Jade City. In the iceberg, there was a large open space. Because it was in the middle of an iceberg, no one would go there. That open space was actually a large ice surface. But Jade Jiao Dragon believed that it was very suitable for building a fish farm, especially such a large fish farm.
In the surroundings of the Ice Jade City, there were originally a few fish farms. However, the size of the fish farms were not very large and they were usually controlled by individuals. For example, the Imperial Fish Farm of the Yu Family was built in a warm current more than three hundred miles away from the Ice Jade City. That was a little too far and if anything were to happen to the Ice Jade City in the future, the Imperial Fish Farm would not be of much use.
However, the fish farm that Jade Jiao Dragon chose was only about 15 miles away from Ice Jade City. Including the path on the iceberg, it was very close to Ice Jade City. It would be more convenient for Ice Jade City to build a fish farm there.
Of course, Jade Jiao Dragon was also very curious. Logically speaking, the place he chose was very suitable for building a fish farm. But why didn't anyone build a fish farm there before? Later on, he found out that the reason why no fish farm was built there was because the Yu Family did not allow it in the past. In the past, the Yu Family would not allow anyone to build a fish farm there because it was too close to the Ice Jade City. If there was a war, an army would be placed there to protect the safety of the Ice Jade City. How could they allow others to build a fish farm at such a strategic location?
But now, Yu Yunlong agreed to let Jade Jiao Dragon build a fish farm there. Due to the unstable situation in the continent, Yu Yunlong was preparing to train a new army. The new army would be placed next to the fish farm to protect the fish farm. During the war, the fish farm could be used as a barracks. It would coordinate with Ice Jade City and make the city safer.
After knowing this, Jade Flood Dragon began to pay more attention to the area. He immediately began to recruit people to open up the ice. They needed to use magic to melt the ice and turn it into water. Then they would raise volcanic fish to raise the temperature of the water. After that, they would plant aquatic plants and other fishes in the water.
Volcanic Fish weren't very big, the longest one was only a foot long. In the water area that Jade Jiao Dragon chose, at least 10,000 Volcanic Fish would be needed to maintain the temperature of the water. Fortunately, Volcanic Fish were sold in various fish farms. Moreover, they weren't worth much. Sometimes, no one would buy them. In order to maintain the temperature of the fish farm, the people in the fish farms would kill some of them. Therefore, it wasn't difficult to buy Volcanic Fish.
While building the fish farm, Jade Jiao Dragon did many things. Recruiting people to melt the ice was very simple. The people he recruited were the Green Jade Adventurer Group, which was Zhao Hai's Adventurer Group. The members of the Green Jade Adventurer Group were all Zhao Hai's people. Therefore, Jade Jiao Dragon didn't need to worry about them.
The people who went out to buy Volcanic Fish were the Green Jade Warehouse's people. They were also Zhao Hai's people. As for the rest, the broad-leaved fishes and aquatic plants were directly transported from the Mixed Spirit Continent. Of course, they were also in the hands of the Green Jade Warehouse. However, in order to avoid suspicion, Jade Jiao Dragon didn't do business with the Green Jade Warehouse, but with another warehouse that was secretly controlled by the Green Jade Warehouse. This was the result of Tang Ming's hard work over the years. As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. Tang Ming and the others have secretly controlled many warehouses and Adventurer Groups through the Green Jade Warehouse and the Green Jade Adventurer Group. Therefore, it wasn't difficult to hide the fact that Jade Jiao Dragon was looking for the same group of people.
As soon as Jade Jiao Dragon led the Green Jade Adventurer Group to melt the ice in the lake, the Volcanic Fish were sent over. As soon as the Volcanic Fish were thrown into the lake, the water no longer froze. Then they threw the aquatic plants into the water. These aquatic plants grew very fast. If you don't raise enough fishes, the entire lake would be filled with aquatic plants. Just like the fish farm in the Mixed Spirit Continent, the Green Jade Warehouse had already started to control the growth of the aquatic plants. If the aquatic plants were allowed to grow, the fish farm would be full of aquatic plants. If that happens, it would be very difficult for them to catch more fishes.
This time, Zhao Hai got a lot of aquatic plants from the Mixed Spirit Continent. However, he didn't get any broad-leaved fishes. This was because he wanted to see if the aquatic plants could grow as fast here. If the aquatic plants couldn't grow well, and he got too many broad-leaved fishes, the fishes would starve to death.
Fortunately, things went smoothly. Because the water temperature wasn't low, the aquatic plants didn't grow slowly. In order to provide a place for the aquatic plants to grow, Jade Jiao Dragon spent a lot of money to get some wood and stones and put them into the lake. This was also a common method used by inland fish farms in the Arctic Continent, so there was nothing strange about it.
When Jade Jiao Dragon saw that the aquatic plants didn't have any problems, they didn't wait any longer and directly threw the Broadleaf Fishes into the lake. This time, they threw a lot of Broadleaf Fishes into the lake, about 10,000 of them, which was as many as the Volcanic Fishes. However, in such a large body of water, this number wasn't a lot.
All of these Broadleaf Fishes had big bellies, so it wouldn't take long for them to give birth. These Broadleaf Fishes had been improved, and they ate the improved aquatic plants. Therefore, their growth speed was very fast. In about three months, they could reach 10 jin. At that time, the Broadleaf Fishes would be able to give birth. In about six months, the Broadleaf Fishes would be able to reach 30 jin, which was already considered an adult. In about a year, the Broadleaf Fishes could reach 100 jin. And if the Broadleaf Fishes were raised for a few years, it wouldn't be a problem for them to reach a few hundred jin.
Of course, these fish generally couldn't be raised for a few years before being caught. Generally, they would be fished out when they were a few dozen kilograms. Fish that could really grow to a hundred kilograms were actually rare. Generally, if they really grew that big, they would be kept as breeding fish and wouldn't be fished out casually.
After all of the Broadleaf Fishes were thrown into the lake, a month had passed. Jade Jiao Dragon could finally report to Jade Yunlong.
