In a year of natural disasters, the young woman had billions of resources to build a paradise.

Chapter 128 Building an Underground City

[Merit points +5, +2, +1, +3... cumulative merit points.]

Jiang Mianmian glanced at her merit points. The rate of increase had been slowing down these days, but it was about to break through the 100,000 mark again.

What surprises await this time? She hopes for a more detailed explanation of how to utilize the Peach Blossom Spring method!

Before this, they, along with the people of Fengshui County, could only rely on the grain stored in the granaries.

"If it's hot, let's stay indoors and not go out."

Looking at the scorching sun outside, Third Sister's eyes were full of worry. "Mianmian, don't go out so often."

Seventh Sister also said, "Your face is perfectly fine, and you'll ruin it with the sun."

"Oh yes."

Jiang Mianmian wrote down sunscreen and sun-protective clothing on a piece of paper. "I'll teach you how to use them when they arrive. But the heat isn't something we can just hide away from."

She also wrote down ice making and air conditioning.

There is an ice cellar in the village, which will make both ice-making and ice-using much more convenient.

However, the effect of ice cellars is ultimately limited, so air conditioning still needs to be installed, which then involves the issue of electricity.

"Our human-powered running generators probably can't power so many air conditioners."

This involves Jiang Mianmian's area of ​​ignorance.

Seventh Sister said, "Then we don't need to live in so many courtyards anymore. Wouldn't it be nice if a few of us squeezed in?"

"Yes, our environment is already much better than others."

Everyone started talking at once.

After further discussion, it was finally decided to test the air conditioning unit on the fifth unit.

When Jiu Niang brought up the issue of water, she said, "Perhaps we can divert the lake water from the cave, but then we'll need to build a road."

"We can use pipes; I'll take care of that."

As for the camp in Fengshui County, she has tools for digging wells. She will carefully search for water sources and see if she can dig a few more deep wells.

Finally, only the issue of safety remained, and everyone unanimously agreed to choose the guards and the old woman.

Jiang Mianmian plans to build another ring of houses around the manor, "so that the guards can live on the outer perimeter, separated from our manor, with an electric fence in between. This way, it will be safe and won't affect our lives. The old women can move in."

After all, they were all young women, and it would be really inconvenient to have so many guards living there.

Twenty-five suddenly said, "Could we let the mouse brothers be our guards?"

"It would be even better if they were willing to come."

Jiang Mianmian thought so too.

However, they refused when she suggested they come to the estate last time, and she couldn't keep chasing after them to ask them to come.

If they hear that you are hiring and come to you, they still have to pass the assessment.

With everything settled, things began to get busy on the farm.

Yesterday I was so focused on taking everything out that I didn't tidy it up properly because of the Jiang family.

Jiu Niang stayed behind to help the others tidy up the manor, while Jiang Mianmian went to the camp.

She didn't consult Magistrate Ye or his men about selecting workers, guards, and old women, as it was a private matter. Instead, she went directly to the team in Lijia Village to find Xiangrui.

After giving her instructions, she went to see Magistrate Ye and asked, "Isn't the location of our camp too inconvenient?"

Magistrate Ye slapped his thigh. “That’s right. We’ve been digging for days, and the surrounding area is already empty. If we dig back as you suggested, we’ll have to go a long way to find something new. Besides, it’s been getting hotter and hotter these past few days, so our efficiency has obviously decreased.”

"Let's move our campsite."

Jiang Mianmian drove him westward for a while, until they reached the foot of the mountains on the east side. "Here we can set up many tents and simple houses. There are also many caves on the mountain where we can stay temporarily. Moreover, there is a water source on the mountain, which is quite convenient. After we clear away all the vegetation around us, we will start digging wells and underground cities."

"Dungeon?"

Magistrate Ye was taken aback. "It can't be that bad, can it?"

“We don’t have to dig. Do you know where there are any large bunkers nearby? We can just move in. You said it yourself, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. This weather will last for at least four or five months, and it will only get hotter after that. The best way is to move into the underground city.”

This was the best solution Jiang Mianmian could think of. Her own estate was easy to manage, and she could afford to install air conditioning and generate her own electricity.

However, Fengshui County has a population of 80,000, and whether they live in makeshift houses or return to their original homes, they cannot withstand the extreme heat and cold.

Only underground cities can not only defend against severe weather, but also repel external enemies!

For example, the Lu family army!

Magistrate Ye scratched his head, "If you put it that way, you're absolutely right, but we don't know how to build an underground city."

“You should choose some skilled and clever craftsmen. I have a lot of books here that you can learn from. We need to have a meeting tonight to discuss the other details. Now you need to find a way to inform everyone to come here tonight after they finish their work. I will ask the fairy for help with moving things.”

As for the things in the original camp, she could directly store them in Peach Blossom Spring with her mind and then release them here.

"Really? That's great! I'll go and let them know right away."

Jiang Mianmian drove him to the spot where everyone had been digging earlier that day, and continued eastward to collect the supplies from the camp.

Seeing that there were still people in the camp, they put on a loudspeaker and announced, "Everyone, head west immediately to the work site."

"Everyone, head west immediately..."

"Everyone..."

Those who remained were mostly elderly people who were not very mobile, or pregnant women and children, who were busy washing clothes or washing vegetables and cooking.

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and ran after the car. "Miss Mianmian? What are you doing now?"

"But does the fairy have a new task? Or is she not letting us work anymore?"

"Is there going to be some danger again?"

Jiang Mianmian quickly changed the message on the loudspeaker: "The camp is relocating. All personnel should proceed to their work sites immediately. There is no need to pack anything. Wait for Magistrate Ye's instructions."

Now everyone understood, and they quickly notified each other. Soon, all the personnel remaining in the camp began to move.

After waiting for half an hour, Jiang Mianmian circled the camp and, seeing that there was really no one there, began to collect the items in Peach Blossom Spring.

Even using consciousness and touching together, it took a full half hour to collect them all.

Jiang Mianmian was exhausted and took out her RV to rest. Just as she lay down, there was a knock on the door.

"Miss Mianmian? Miss Mianmian?"

I rolled down the car window and saw it was Village Chief Liu from Qingbao Village. "You were looking for me?"

Village Chief Liu's face turned pale. "Where...where is our camp? How come it's all gone?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, we're temporarily heading back to the vicinity of Fengshui County, so we won't trouble you any further."

Jiang Mianmian didn't plan to involve Qingbao Village in building the bunker, but she still reminded him, "You should make plans early. The weather will get hotter and hotter, and it will get cold again in the fall. See if you can dig a cellar or something to store more food and water."

She believed she could only do what she was capable of, and did not consider herself capable of being the savior of the Rong Kingdom.
