Mu Wanqing trusts Liu Feng unconditionally.

Being able to defeat the northern barbarians can allow the people in the village to live a better life.

Besides, she had seen the power of the hand crossbow with her own eyes, and the large crossbow used by Liu Feng was even more powerful.

"Of course. What's not great about your husband? Isn't the gun even more powerful?"

Liu Feng smiled and held Mu Wanqing in his arms.

"Look at you."

"Hate."

Mu Wanqing cursed with a red face, looked around cautiously, and immediately leaned close to Liu Feng's ear.

"Husband, even if a gun is useful, it needs to be polished frequently to make it shine brighter. Qing'er is now..."

"Husband, let Qing'er help you wipe it."

After Mu Wanqing finished speaking, her heart began to beat wildly and she immediately lowered her head shyly.

Every time she said such words to her husband, she felt extremely excited.

It was Tiangang who was in trouble. This little girl started teasing him.

Although Mu Wanqing is the eldest sister among the wives and looks quiet, she is meticulous in her work, bold and careful, and is also the most open-minded one among the wives.

Mu Wanqing, Mu Wanqing and Liu Yan could all learn to say this teasing sentence, but Wu Xiangyue might never be able to say it in her entire life.

Liu Feng grinned and reached out to gently lift up Mu Wanqing's little face.

"Very well, my husband will test your abilities."

Under the stimulation of each other, the two of them could no longer hold back.

Liu Feng put down the saltpeter and couldn't wait to walk into the house with Mu Wanqing.

Mu Wanqing was very good at teasing her husband, but she was not so good in practice, especially since Liu Feng was too strong in combat.

This time Mu Wanqing was in a miserable state again and surrendered halfway.

While surrendering with tears in his eyes, he said provocatively that he would dare to do it again next time. He is really a novice who likes to play.

This character makes Liu Feng unable to let go of her.

That night, the daughters-in-law slept together under the same quilt as before.

The next morning.

Liu Feng got up, packed up briefly, and went to the river.

When Liu Feng arrived, Wu Jiang and several leaders of the water fort were already waiting by the river.

Now the construction of the water fort has been basically completed, and they want Liu Feng to go over and inspect the results.

Seeing Wu Jiang's confident look, Liu Feng couldn't help but tease him after sitting on the small ice sled made of wooden boards.

"You're so confident, have you prepared a lot of goodies to surprise me?"

"I'm not a young wife."

Wu Jiang laughed heartily.

"Of course. After all, so many people have been working hard for a whole winter. If we don't have any skills, how can we garrison troops and serve as the hub of the waterway?"

As the wooden sled slides down, you can see the commercial pedestrian street planned along the Xinqiang River, as well as Liu Lang and his tribe.

The sled was moving very fast and arrived near the water fort in a quarter of an hour.

However, although this sled was made, it also had great drawbacks. People were afraid to let horses pull it on the ice, and the horses would have to feed the fish.

And there were no sled dogs or anything like that, it all depended on people pulling.

However, Wu Jiang fully utilized his intelligence this time and invented a sled stick similar to a paddle. Four people can hold one sled, and one person can hold another, just like rowing a boat.

Not only is it extremely fast, it also saves a lot of effort.

Originally, Liu Feng made the sled to solve the problem of transporting materials.

The water fort is far away, and most of the needed stones and wood need to be prepared in the two villages. Transportation by land is too slow and time-consuming.

In addition to the unique advantage of the frozen river surface, this method of transportation was used. Although the amount of items transported each time was not large, the speed was fast, which was still much faster than land transportation.

However, it was Liu Feng's first time riding a sled today, and he was really scared.

After getting off the sled, I looked at the long ice surface with traces left by the sled and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The construction is truly stunning.

Originally, the area around the water fort was swampy and covered with a large amount of reeds.

But now, they are all neatly piled up with stone slabs along the river, forming a high wall.

According to Wu Jiang, since the water fort was completed and there was nothing to do, they built a city wall for fun.

Wujiang plans to widen and raise this side of the city wall when there is time in the future.

By then, the entire water fort will be a fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Liu Feng arrived at the original ferry crossing of Shuizhai. This was his first stop, and he felt quite sad when he thought about it.

Now this place has the prototype of a city gate, with wooden stakes nailed into the water all around it, and a huge platform extending out from it, suspended on the water surface.

Although the extended part of the platform is supported by wooden piles, the area on the shore is made entirely of huge rocks, so it is very sturdy.

"This port is well built. It can easily accommodate seven or eight official ships."

"If it's a smaller merchant ship, it won't be a problem to put down twenty of them."

"But there is a problem. I discovered it when I attacked here before. The area around the water fort is covered with reeds all year round. The water depth is insufficient, and merchant ships can easily run aground."

"After the spring, you should take people diving to clear the silt. Otherwise, the large ship will be in deep water and it will be easy for something to happen."

"Draft?"

Wu Jiang was bewildered. What did this mean? Could the boat even take up water?

"You idiot! Since it's a ship traveling back and forth, it must be carrying cargo. Doesn't that make the ship heavier? Doesn't that mean it needs a deeper water depth?"

"But don't dig too deep, as it will damage buildings on the shore."

"Besides, the Xinqiang River isn't very deep to begin with, so there won't be any large ships that can get here. The river is so narrow that large ships can't enter."
