Chapter 7 The Friendly Freljord
After conducting on-site inspections, Li Ke and Ai Xi decided to carve out a piece of land with a length and width of two kilometers in this area as farmland, and open a road between here and Ai Xi's original town.
And Li Ke didn't really do anything except dig potatoes. He took out all kinds of seeds that he had prepared, and after clearing a clearing, he buried them all in the ground. And he planted them together.
Like the potatoes, ordinary life force was not injected into it, but part of the ice vein vitality was injected into it. I wanted to see if it would produce some mutations that would be useful to humans like these ice crystal potatoes.
After all, life always finds a way, and some lives need a little help.
"Improving grain crops is a long-term task, and the area of farmland will become larger and larger in the future, so without some good roads, I am afraid it will be very troublesome in the future and even affect our development work. So we
It's better to get some solid pavement out."
Li Ke walked in the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Ai Xi was no longer as agile as she was then because her pants were also covered with ice and snow. It was precisely because of this bad experience on the return trip that it reminded him of
Something he had almost forgotten.
"But if a large number of stones are reclaimed in such weather, I am afraid that only the Iceborn can do it. If those furnace households are allowed to do it, their casualties will be very serious. But the Iceborn need to go out to hunt, not to mention defending against foreign enemies.
, let them do such work..."
She is not able to understand the importance of roads. In her opinion, ordinary dirt roads can meet most needs, while stone roads not only consume a lot of manpower, but she cannot use it at all, and there is no comparison.
Dirt roads are much better.
“Have you ever heard of cement?”
Li Kewen has no hope except himself.
"what is that?"
And Ai Xi, just as he thought, showed a confused expression.
"It's just lime, sandstone, and iron ore ground into powder... Forget it, I really don't need to ask... Do you know if there are any white stones on this land that can boil when exposed to water? If you have that, you won't be needed.
The Iceborn warriors have gone to dig for stone."
Li Ke vaguely remembered that there was lime in Valoran. After all, Pi City was a city that could produce artificial AI, and it seemed to have a basic industrial foundation. There should be something as convenient as lime.
"Well, I don't know, but Li Ke, you can ask my priests and doctors. They always get some weird things. I guess they should know what you want."
Ai Xi was a little embarrassed, and Li Ke could only sigh in response to her. After all, you really can't ask for too much. But since Freljord doesn't have what he wants, then he can
It can only be found from the outside world, and the great thing is that in this world full of magic, there is still a place with many technological products.
Piltover.
"So, do you have reliable manpower that can be sent to Piltover? There are many things here that can only be purchased through Piltover. And with the help of Piltover's technological products and various formulas
, we can also develop better here.”
When Li Ke said this, he also thought of another thing, that is medicine. The medicines of the locals in Freljord are simply murder weapons. Only some medicines that have been explored with life are useful, and the others are full of
He has learned all kinds of metaphysics, such as bloodletting with a knife on his arm, or taking some kind of obvious anesthetic drug, and then communicating with God and asking him what is wrong with him and what needs to be corrected——
Some of them feel that illness is a punishment for something they have done wrong.
Therefore, in Li Ke's opinion, Freljord's medical treatment is really full of black humor that is not funny at all.
The introduction of Piltover's pharmaceuticals and technology will definitely significantly improve the farming speed here. After all, if he can only rely on himself, then Li Ke feels that after more than 100 years of hard work here, he should be able to reach the technology of World War II.
degree.
You have to know that he is an ordinary person, how could he know the specific formula and process of cement! And this kind of thing is destined to be impossible to keep secret. Just buy the ready-made formula and use it, so that the descendants of Freljord can use it in the future.
Developing is the right path.
"this……"
However, in response to Li Ke's request, Ai Xi's face was also full of embarrassment this time.
"What's wrong?"
Li Ke, who had only a smattering of knowledge about the League of Legends universe and only had a rough understanding of the backstories of some big-breasted female heroes, really didn't understand why Ashe was in such trouble.
"The Freljord ships are prohibited from appearing around Piltover, and it's not just Piltover, but other countries as well..."
Ai Xi's face became even more embarrassed. In her eyes, there was really no way to talk about such a thing as an honor.
"Why is this? If I remember correctly, there should be no conflict between Piltover and Freljord."
Li Ke still knows the situation on this continent. The two cities of Freljord, Piltover and Zaun are basically two ends of the same continent, and there are Demacia and Noxus sandwiched in the middle.
A superpower, plus a group of small melon-eating countries that are constantly being beaten by people from all walks of life. It is impossible for major diplomatic problems to arise. How can it not even be close to their cities?
"You should have heard that Freljord is not only rich in bandits, but also rich in pirates. In recent years, Piltover's ships have either been robbed by pirates from Bilgewater, or they have been robbed by us in Freljord.
People kidnapped people... so much so that when they were doing deals with some countries further north, they needed to hire Noxian or Demacia fleets to escort them, so the Freljordian ships and
Ships from Bilgewater are denied entry to Piltover and other countries that are often plundered."
Ashe saw that Li Ke really didn't understand, so she truthfully told Li Ke about the international situation of Freljord in the world of Valoran, and the main reason why their ship was not popular.
"...So there is no foreign aid?"
Li Ke didn't know what to say at all. The race that did this would really be the most outstanding people in the Freljord if it were not extinct.
You know, the people of Piltover can make deals with the Noxians!
"There are still some. Tribes close to Demacia have helped me before, so I think it is still possible for us to make deals with Demacia."
