Chapter 382 The space is half open
Wu Long glanced sideways, half believing and half doubting, "Really? If you can't satisfy me, I..."
He wanted to ask for more coal, but the ship only had a limited cargo capacity and he couldn't take away even if he asked for more.
He said depressedly again: "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll talk about it when I think about it."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, but I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Wu Long regained some spirits. He said, "I'll steer the boat upstream until it reaches the bottom."
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, go up and then stop the boat to the left."
Wu Long said lazily, "I know."
Su Nuan didn't want to take a boat, so she went to the place where Apocynum venetum grew with Feixue first.
The source mountain of this river is not close to the border town of Beixue Country, so the river is still very wide in the place where Luobu Ma grows. Boats can sail in, but they cannot dock, so they can only use small boats.
When they arrived at the place, Su Nuan did not rush to look for the iron balls, but cleared an area by the river to pile up the collected Apocynum venetum.
The steamboat travels very fast, even going upstream is amazingly fast.
When Su Nuan finished cleaning up the riverside, the boat arrived, but unfortunately the water was too shallow to dock.
Ling Yun and his men rowed a small boat to the shore that Su Nuan had cleared. He looked around.
Then he pointed in a direction and said, "There are burned trees over there. There must be a meteorite falling. I'll go take a look."
Su Nuan pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is there really such a thing as meteorite iron?"
Ling Yun nodded, "Yes, otherwise the tree wouldn't have burned."
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Maybe he was struck by lightning."
Ling Yun felt that Su Nuan was questioning him, and said unconvincedly, "I'll go find it, there must be one."
Su Nuan chuckled, what a child, so unstable.
If Su Nuan had seen Ling Yun killing someone, she would definitely not say this.
Su Nuan was happy that someone went to find the iron ball, so she stayed to teach the people brought by Ling Yun how to collect Luobu Ma.
As for the leaves of Apocynum venetum, they can only be pulled back and collected. They are also good for making tea after drying and have certain medicinal value.
Lunch is simple. We use a charcoal stove to cook dried meat and wild vegetable porridge, which can fill us up.
In the afternoon, Ling Yun ran back excitedly. His coat was made into a package with something inside.
He came to Su Nuan and shook out the things in his clothes. "Look, it's meteorite iron, lots of it."
Su Nuan felt Ling Yun's genuine joy and started laughing too. "Really? Then our iron tools will be even sharper."
Ling Yun smiled and said, "That's right. After the collection of Apocynum venetum is finished, I will take people to look for it."
Su Nuan was happy that someone was going to collect them. She smiled and said, "Okay, I still have to deal with these apocynum venetum when I get back, so I won't go with you."
Ling Yun didn't expect Su Nuan to help. "You are welcome to do whatever you want. We don't need you for the collection. Go back and deal with the batch that is being sent back."
Su Nuan nodded immediately, "Okay, I'll go first."
Ling Yun looked at Su Nuan who seemed to be running away, and recalled the time when he was a child and was lazy because he didn't want to work.
He chuckled, "Are you so unwilling to work? Then I'll try not to let you work in the future."
His eyes were full of doting, but unfortunately he couldn't see it.
Su Nuan rode Feixue and originally wanted to go directly back to Sifang City, but when she passed the border town of Beixue Country, she couldn't help but drive Feixue to circle twice.
The border town is very lonely. Although there is an official road leading to other places, Su Nuan feels that this border town is just like the north, a place of exile.
It’s just that they built the city earlier than Sifang City, so it has a large population.
Su Nuan hesitated for a moment and did not land. She let Xiaotian and the others handle the affairs of the border town, and she could not take on everything.
When she returned to Sifang City, she saw the Apocynum sibiricum spread out in an open space, with many people pointing and talking around.
Su Nuan called out, "Auntie, sisters, is there anyone who can deal with this apocynum?"
An old lady stepped forward and said, "I know this linen makes very soft clothes."
Su Nuan said, "We don't have much fabric right now, so we need to learn how to weave hemp so we don't have to worry about having nothing to wear in the future."
The old lady said in surprise, "Can we also wear clothes made of linen?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, now help me deal with these hemp, pick all the leaves and put them in the basket first."
Almost every household in the north was short of cloth, and under Su Nuan's leadership, they quickly processed the first batch.
As for weaving, in fact, most women here know how to do it, and making clothes is a necessary skill for everyone, so Su Nuan doesn't have to worry about the follow-up matters.
Ling Cang has been cleaning up the cave these days, and no one is idle.
As for the new system, it will not be implemented in a few days, so for now we still have to eat from the same pot.
Wu Long taught Cheng Feng the boat-driving skills, and Cheng Feng and Li Shitou took over the steamboat.
Now, compared with Ling Cang and Cheng Feng, Cheng Feng is more like a general who expands the territory, while Ling Cang has seen through the wars and prefers stability, so it is better to let him take charge.
Su Nuan is now like a street urchin, running around everywhere, because she simply cannot stop to do a boring job.
That day, Su Nuan sat on the edge of the cliff, looking at the square city below with boredom.
Now the borders of the city walls are very clear, but the houses inside are sparsely populated. At first glance, it looks like the ruins of an ancient city that has been weathered by the wind and rain.
The space spirit sat on Su Nuan's head, looking around constantly.
She said, "You seem to be free?"
Su Nuan said helplessly: "Do you think I am suitable for building city walls or mining?"
The Space Spirit slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, our mining robots haven't been retrieved yet."
Su Nuan had forgotten about it. "Hey, let's go and take a look."
By the time Su Nuan found the robot, it had stopped working.
She quickly took the robot into the space, and the robot actually automatically sent the excavated coal into the storage room.
Su Nuan exclaimed, "That's amazing! Having this guy is like having hundreds of miners."
The Space Spirit touched his chin and said, "Why not throw it into the mines of the Northern Snow Country? It would be nice to dig for gemstones when you have nothing to do."
Su Nuan shook her head, "No, what if someone sees us and beats us up for being a monster?"
The space spirit said again, "Monster? We can dress up as monsters and go to the border town of the Northern Snow Country to play. We can scare everyone there and make them run to the Northland. That way, we'll have more people in the Northland."
Su Nuan wasn't sure if this plan would work. The new system in the North wasn't operational yet, and if a large influx of outsiders came in, chaos would likely follow.
"Besides, not all the people over there are ordinary people. It would be troublesome if some local tyrants came over and acted tyrannically."
The Space Spirit sighed, "Well, maybe the coin casting speed is too slow. How about making more templates?"
Su Nuan shook her head, "No, there are so many days left in my life, take your time."
The Space Spirit glanced sideways, "You seem to be playing badly now."
Su Nuan collapsed on the rocking chair, "It's so obvious, can't you see it?"
The space spirit floated in front of Su Nuan and said, "You have to work hard to find new things. Now half of the city is open. Once the city is fully opened, it means that the space will be fully unlocked."
