Chapter 280 Island Reclamation
Chapter 280 Island Reclamation
early morning.
Pig Tail Bay Pier is already bustling with activity.
"Hang Chi Chi Chi" The pigs lined up, with a cow leading the way and a sheep following behind.
They move forward in an orderly manner.
"picipici" Pitts stood on the dock, waving to the animals.
"Moo~" the cow called to her.
"Moo" Pitts patiently lowered his voice and imitated the mooing of a cow.
The cow shook her head with satisfaction and waited to get on the boat.
The sailors who had been waiting on the deck were amazed when they saw this.
"Can you really talk to cows?"
"Of course, she is the Lord's maid." Another sailor said matter-of-factly: "Everyone in the castle has magic, otherwise why is the Lord a favored one?"
"Pa!" A hand suddenly slapped the sailor on the forehead. He turned his head in displeasure and found out that it was his captain, Lao Pili. Why was he suddenly beaten?
Pili said: "Don't talk about adults behind your back!"
"Yes!" Several people nodded.
Talking about the lord behind his back is a promotion. I heard from the businessmen in the Porcupine Territory that many people were hanged for slandering behind their backs.
But Lao Pili suddenly whispered: "You are all hearsay, and you have never entered the castle. Only when you enter the castle like me will you know what is inside!"
The sailor asked curiously: "Captain, what's in it?"
Pili smiled proudly and said: "Inside..."
"Snapped!"
He raised his hand and slapped the sailor on the forehead again: "Didn't I tell you not to talk about your lord after we say goodbye?"
The sailor covered his head and looked at Pili angrily, as if he was calculating in his mind which was more important, work or beating Pili.
This old guy is definitely looking for opportunities to hit people on purpose!
Piri turned around and said, "You just have to do your job."
Old Pili, who loves to bully young people and relies on his old age, is leaving. Not surprisingly, he received greetings from the young sailors.
At the dock, the animals that had been waiting for a long time finally lined up to board the ship, and headed to the cabin under the leadership of Pitts. This voyage would last for a long time, and these animals must be taken good care of.
Pitts, who finally finished his work, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead and came to the deck.
She looked at Ake who had been standing at the bow of the ship for a long time. At this time, Ake was smiling and looking at the lord below who was giving instructions.
Several farmers trotted away.
As if he noticed the gazes of the two little maids on the boat, the lord turned his head to look at them, nodded to them with a smile, and then turned to continue talking.
Pitts wanted to tell Acker that it was impossible for a maid to have a relationship with a noble lord, even though the lord never differentiated them by class, just like slaves in Porcupine collar can obtain the status of free citizens at any time.
However, a noble is a noble, and a maid is a maid. The relationship between the two parties has no possibility at all except becoming a topic of conversation after dinner.
Moreover, Pitts felt that Akeke didn't know that the lord seemed to prefer the mature type like the wine glass. Every time the maids passed by, the lord's eyes stayed on the wine glass for the longest time.
Ake is not the only maid in the entire Porcupine Castle who loves the Baron. The same thing is that there will be no results for everyone.
There are also maids who know that the Baron seems to like white socks very much, and they have to put on his shivering legs because of the cold, but they can't shake the status of the wine glass's fleshy legs.
Several sailors carried wooden boxes and slowly boarded the ship.
Ake was watching quietly from the side. It was a beehive.
"You are much more relaxed than me," Pitts said enviously.
He needed to teach the animals how to move and act, to reassure them not to be afraid, and to meet some of those guys' food requirements, but Akeke only had to tell the bees not to move, and then someone would carry the beehives to the boat.
After a while, several farmers got on the boat carrying bags.
After everything was ready, Li Qi finally got on the boat.
He looked at the two magic maids: "Is this your first time on a boat?"
They nodded simultaneously.
"Yes!"
He said with concern: "Please be careful. If you get seasick, you must tell me as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
The two magical maids were really his treasures and must be treated with care.
The Porcupine sets sail for the High Demon Land Island.
The dock at Pig Tail Bay has been built, and Li Qi has immediately assigned the craftsmen to build houses and watchtowers.
These things can be left to the subordinates.
In addition to Grant, Qiao and others, the newly arrived Sir Lacey Sith is also an outstanding nobleman who has received a complete noble education. He is a high-level intellectual talent. The new round of land reclamation in the Porcupine Territory is left to them to supervise the problem. big.
If the war in Iron Valley had not already begun, Li Qi would not be in such a hurry to go to the island to open up wasteland. It is expected that he will make his debut in a month or two at most. It will take another half a month to go from the Porcupine Territory to Iron Valley.
He has arranged for rapid training of musketry cavalry. The sound of muskets has a great impact on the horses, so loud that the horses ignore the rocket's orders.
It is still unclear what kind of training can be achieved in this little time. If the horses can be able to overcome the sound of gunfire, it will not be a big problem. Otherwise, the cavalry will not be used in this battle.
This time he went to the island to open up wasteland, and Li Qi brought his serfs and several bags of sprouted potatoes.
A swineherd responsible for raising pigs.
Bought extraordinary potion seeds that can bloom from Ram, such as bitter flower, snake scale flower, Miss Long Hair and Silver Fern. Among them, Li Qi is most interested in Miss Long Hair. If they can be bred in large quantities, so can the Porcupine Collar. Manufacture of high-end perfumes.
Luxury goods are the way to make money.
There were also carpenters, masons, cooks, and a group of able-bodied slaves.
The island has not been developed, and there is a shortage of people in all aspects. One thing I don’t know whether to say is good or bad is that the island is not large, so there are not many people for land reclamation.
day and night
The high magic island gradually appeared in sight.
Some people are not used to seasickness, but the two little maids are in good condition and they are always full of energy.
Not far from the island, you can also see the Monkey family's ship, which is Li Qi's trophy.
Soon, the first problem appeared.
The island has not been developed, and you must take a small boat to get to the island.
People can ride in small boats, but animals are not so obedient.
"Pitz" Li Qi said: "Let them know clearly in advance."
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, Pitts went to the cabin to provide psychological counseling to the animals.
The first batch of people to land on the island were the accompanying soldiers. They had to take into account the possibility of pirates accidentally discovering the island and protect the safety of subsequent people who landed on the island.
The most powerful security force was not them, but the water fairy who followed the ship. No one knew she existed except Li Qi.
"It's all up to you to guard and protect this island." Li Qi said to the water fairy.
The water fairy replied: "Don't worry, Li Qi."
Then there are serfs, craftsmen, etc., who will bring their own farm tools and seeds.
Sacks of potatoes were thrown onto the boat, and the serfs jumped aboard and headed for the island.
At this time, Pitts' psychological counseling finally ended.
Li Qi was lucky enough to see a scene where pigs, cows, etc. jumped into the sea and swam towards the island.
Unexpectedly, Pitts' ability has improved so much after just a period of study.
Akke's beehives are the easiest to deal with, as long as they don't get wet.
Finally, Li Qi took the boat to the island.
To summarize in May, the update time is unstable and cannot be solved for the time being. The afternoon chapter mainly covers the morning and noon, and the key updates are all in the evening.
The number of words this month has been kept at least 33 words per day, and a total of words have been updated this month. It is not comparable to some tentacle monsters I know, but it should not be particularly small.
My goal in June is to write 6 million words. Finally, I would like to thank you for your support by subscribing, voting, and giving me the motivation to stay up late and write more.
