Lord of Rot

Chapter 281 Departure from Iron Valley

After landing.

More than a hundred people were divided into small teams and stood aside.

Li Qi had a simple map in his hand, which was drawn by the four-hand mercenary Trevor when he went to the island to clean up dangers on the island.

"Go to the northeast first," Li Qi ordered: "There are temporary cabins there for storing seeds and luggage."

"Yes!"

"You guys," Li Qi pointed to the sailors who were following in the rowing boat: "Go back and bring the food over."

"Yes!"

Not long after walking in the direction drawn on the simplified map, I saw a small shed built by previous visitors with air leakage in front of me.

Shelter from the wind is impossible, but shelter from the rain should not be a big problem.

After all, the conditions are limited, the population is limited, and even the area of ​​the desert island to be developed is limited, so everything should be simplified.

"The chef cooks first," Li Qi ordered: "Try not to eat anything from the island."

He was not sure what effects would occur if ordinary people casually ingested the wild berries on the island. If it was a good result, that would be fine. If it caused a special reaction... there was only one pharmacist accompanying him, who could bandage the wound, but it would not be able to save it at all. Life.

Even in the Porcupine Territory, if you have a bad stomach, you can only rely on yourself to fight it off, and there is no cure.

Some people who are relatively free at the moment, such as pigherders, take the initiative to go out and collect dry firewood.

The masons also picked up bricks to help build the stove.

We were swaying on the boat and couldn't eat well. Now that we landed, everyone was hungry and wanted to have a warm and comfortable meal.

The serfs were busier. They needed to open part of the bag first. A part of the bag was soaked in sea water while being transported on the ship. They had to pick out this part of the seeds as soon as possible.

In general everyone has their own job.

Li Qi ordered: "Pitts, let some birds fly."

Pitts pinched his lips and whistled, and several birds that followed him spread their wings and flew into the sky. Reacher had already released the "Eagle Eye" magic on these birds of different sizes and varieties, allowing them to observe small objects from multiple angles. Magic island.

He placed the portable table on the floor and covered it with several layers of paper.

"Ake, come here and help me press the paper."

The little maid seemed to have drank milk on the boat, and she still smelled of milk when she came over.

She used her two little hands to help press the paper, and Li Qi quickly began to draw the map.

"The overall terrain is very flat with many trees. The coastal reef areas should be the breeding areas of giant crabs."

He kept sketching on paper, and finally drew a relatively complete map.

Just at this time, the aroma of meat was coming out of the big pot. Li Qi did not let the chef turn on the small stove for him, but asked Ake to bring him a bowl.

I brought a lot of food with me on this trip, so I am definitely well prepared for food.

Li Qi holds a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other. Eating stew on the island is also a good enjoyment.

In the bowl is pork that is stewed very quickly, and on top is a piece of dry and cold bread, but it quickly softens after being soaked in the broth. Taking a bite after sucking the soup will bring you a sense of satisfaction on a February day. and warmth.

After finishing the meal, Li Qi handed the dishes and chopsticks to the maid to clean up.

Then comes the initial planning.

He called the craftsmen and pointed to the map he had just drawn:

"I want to plant some flowers in this relatively flat area. Akeke's beekeeping farm will also be here. It's best to erect fences to prevent livestock or people from accidentally approaching and being stung."

"Yes!" The craftsmen nodded quickly.

"Then this area has a relatively poor environment and is used to grow potatoes."

Potatoes were the first batch of products that Li Qi tried to plant. If he could grow high-magic potatoes, he could consider adding others in the future. In addition, some vegetables would also be planted on the island.

If you fail, then focus on raising extraordinary potions and extraordinary bees, and focus on trying.

"Then the livestock should be raised in this area. There is a water source nearby," Li Qi said. "The livestock must be kept downstream and cannot pollute the water source."

He pointed to the map: "Residence is also very important, close to water sources."

After the instructions were given, everyone took action.

Slaves armed with axes and saws cut down trees to build wooden houses for craftsmen.

This island needs a pier, but this will have to wait until the food, clothing, housing and transportation problems are temporarily solved. Building a pier is a big project. After all, they only have a total of more than a hundred people and they can't allocate manpower.

The serfs carried hoes to the divided areas to dig and clear up wasteland. The soil quality of the island was different from that of the porcupine collar. After digging, there were many small stones underneath.

"It seems impossible to grow wheat, but growing potatoes is not a big problem. It just needs to loosen the soil a few more times."

Li Qi was walking alone on the island. Occasionally, he looked up and saw a bird circling overhead.

He stood on the rock.

Wow!

A golden figure appeared in front of Li Qi riding on the waves.

"Have you found the location of those giant crabs?"

The water fairy nodded: "I found it, Li Qi."

"Thank you, you did a great job."

"You're welcome."

Li Qi currently has nothing to do with the giant crabs. He can only order people to build a temporary wall to isolate the giant crabs from the water.

Let the giant crabs come to the island. These hundreds of people are all their food, so it is safest to keep them out first. When the manpower is free, dig a real "crab trap" and then deal with these delicious giant crabs.

The first day of land reclamation on the island ended quickly.

The wooden house we live in has only been roughly built, and it will take a while to be completed.

Li Qi led everyone directly into the cave to spend the night.

The cave can provide shelter from the wind and rain, but it is too damp. Living there for a long time will definitely cause problems, and it is not suitable for storing seeds.

For several days.

Everyone is working hard. This is a good opportunity to show off in front of the lord. As long as you work hard, you will be appreciated by the lord. It is easier for more than 2000 people to compete for the chance to stand out among more than people. Noticed by the lord.

In this state of collective excitement, the speed of land reclamation was far faster than Li Qi could imagine.

The first batch of sprouted potatoes has been planted.

The potion garden has been planted and is just waiting to bloom. At the same time, Akeke is also trying to let the bees move outside and give them strict instructions. In the future, they only need to go to the island for regular inspections.

And there are beekeepers accompanying us, so it’s not a big problem.

A few more days passed.

In March, Li Qi returned to Porcupine Territory with two little maids.

Others would stay on the island, tending the island's crops and livestock, only to wait a few months for the harvest to bear fruit.

Li Qi just returned to the castle.

"My lord! A letter from Longshipburg!"

"The letter has come?"

He quickly opened the letter, scanned it around, and looked happy.

"Not bad!"

Baron Ross of the Iron Territory led the legion to storm the Iron Valley and had already reached the Iron Wall Fort.

Li Qi was in high spirits: "It's time to pick peaches!"

What is a mess in other people's eyes is meat and potatoes in his eyes.

"Although Iron Valley is also close to the sea, the environment is incomparable to Pig Tail Bay."

The cliffy sea is not suitable for landing on the beach, and it is impossible to break into the Iron Valley. The best route is to start from the Porcupine Territory, take the land route to the water stream, and then take a boat to the Iron Valley.

I'll be lazy tonight, and I'll leave that chapter in the rest of the night.
