Windmill Village is not far from Dongting Lake. There is nothing important nearby, nor are there any newly built roads, so it wouldn't be a problem to erect some cement pillars.
They can even connect water to the toilets there, and they might need to build a water tank. It's quite inconvenient to use water since there's no water source there.
The situation here at the castle is not suitable for building so many cement pillars. Ed's previous ideas were too simplistic. He now needs to rethink how to solve the problem.
Ed looked at the small river beside Peach Blossom Village. It was difficult to get the water from there to the castle; a waterwheel was needed.
He was momentarily at a loss, unsure of what to do.
Hmm? Couldn't we also lay pipes? We can just make the cement pipes smaller. Water doesn't have to go through the air; it can go underground too, right?
But does the river water have enough pressure to reach the castle? Of course not, so it's useless.
Although we can't get water from Xia Taoyuan Village, we can get water from the mountains over there! Ed just needs to find a good location and bring the water down directly from the mountain.
It's fine if it's a bit far up in the mountain, anyway, he's not in a hurry to use it, since he hasn't even started building his castle yet.
Okay, that's settled on the water issue. Now we need to focus on the development of the territory in all aspects.
"Roderick, I'm going to Red Iron Village. You hurry up and build these things."
"My lord, rest assured, I will definitely satisfy you." Roderick was actually quite happy to see the territory change every day under his control.
Ed headed toward the castle, as he had arranged with Adelaide and Carly to plant the remaining chestnuts on the outskirts of Red Iron Village.
The mountains and forests over there seem to be a good place for growing chestnuts.
On the road outside the castle, the three of them were already walking together, with Adelaide and Carly eating roasted chestnuts as they went.
"Carly, didn't you teach others about hygiene a hundred times last time? Why are you still throwing chestnut shells everywhere?"
Carly walked along, eating and throwing food as she went. "Didn't you say we were going to plant chestnuts? Then chestnut trees would grow everywhere, and we could eat such delicious chestnuts every day."
"Do you think chestnut trees will grow from what you threw away?" Ed looked at her.
"Anything is possible." Carly tossed the chestnut shell aside and kicked at it. But the kick didn't even touch a hair on the shell.
"hehe!"
Ed laughed. "Who do you think you are? You think anything is possible?"
However, he had only ever seen such terrible footwork from a certain sea cucumber team.
Carly's behavior also reminded Ed that he should probably put some trash cans in the territory in the future.
"Carly, don't throw them around." Ed believed she was just doing it for fun; everyone knew whether the shells could sprout or not.
"Oh~"
Carly was quite dissatisfied with her footwork. Was it because her shoes were no good? Probably not, her shoes were actually quite nice.
Carly took another chestnut and ate it, but this time she didn't throw it away.
"Lord Ed, do we really have to plant these chestnuts? How about we roast the rest?"
Carly really loves the taste of roasted chestnuts.
"Carly, how about I cook you too? We don't even have enough chestnuts right now. If we plant more, everyone in the territory can eat them in the future, right?"
The three chatted and laughed and soon arrived at Chitie Village. They said they were planting chestnuts, but in reality, they just scattered the chestnuts evenly on the mountain, avoiding houses and roads.
Ed calls this method "the method of planting according to fate," implying that survival depends entirely on destiny.
