Chapter 283 Good Harbor
Mu Feng's serious look made Mrs. Mu frowned, and persuaded: "Gong'er is still young, let's talk about this matter later, maybe when he grows up, he can be a respected person like you ?”

Mu Feng snorted coldly and said: "What's so young, this little brat is much better than our original condition, I think I followed my mother wandering in the wild, I saw my mother was bitten to death by wild beasts, and was torn apart right in front of me Broken, what kind of environment is that, maybe he will die one day, now he has food, drink, and such exquisite clothes, if he doesn’t work hard, I will break his legs.”

"Okay, calm down, I will discipline him well from now on." Mrs. Mu hastily filled Mu Feng with wine.

Recalling his mother's tragic situation at the time, Mu Feng felt extremely uncomfortable, and he drank it down in one gulp. The pungent taste of the strong wine blew through his throat, making his eyes reddened.

Gritting her teeth, she put the wine glass heavily on the table and said, "Full up!"

Soon Mu Feng was very drunk. Seeing this, Mrs. Mu helped Mu Feng and walked towards the house. He could hear Mu Feng whispering softly, "Mother! Mother!"

Mrs. Mu sighed, put Mu Feng on the bed, and hugged the one-year-old carpenter who was sleeping beside him.

A few days later, after the [-] soldiers from Linhe arrived, the large force building the port transported a large amount of supplies, and slowly moved towards the east along the road. The craftsmen gradually drifted away in the farewell of their families.

Standing on the city wall, Wang Lang looked at the team that had disappeared into the sky, stroked his beard lightly, and murmured, "Li Wei is exhausted after a long time of responsibilities. *****? Relegation is due to the kindness of the king, and it is better to raise the weak than the soldiers. Play and talk about stories with the wife of the mountain, and try to kill the old scalp. I will leave it to you to build my Great Xia Coastal Defense, take care!"

Riding on the giant deer, Mu Feng glanced at the city wall, which was only a little bit left, and said inwardly, "Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to your expectations."

Seeing that Mu Feng had stopped, the guards at the side hurried over and said respectfully: "Shang Shu, what's wrong!"

Mu Feng shook his head and said, "It's nothing, let's move on!"

After the guard retreated respectfully, he roared, "Everyone, speed up, we will be able to reach the first supply station before dark."

More than a dozen huge crossbows are slowly moving forward under the pull of the giant deer. As the sun sets in the west, the afterglow of the setting sun should shine on the team on the road, pulling everyone's shadows to length. The picture at this time is like clothes Tranquil oil painting.

One month after Mu Feng and others set off, Xia Guo's real paper was finally produced.

When Wang Lang received this slightly yellowed paper, his excited hands couldn't stop shaking, and he rewarded the officials of the Ministry of Industry heavily.

With mature technology, Wang Lang immediately ordered the Ministry of Industry to build a paper mill near the lower reaches of the river. After all, if the sewage generated by papermaking is discharged in the city, it will have a serious impact on environmental sanitation.

For large-scale group living, if you don't pay attention to hygiene, some infectious diseases are easy to appear. With the current medical methods, even a cold may spread to the whole city. What Wang Lang can do is to keep the city clean Clean and tidy, if the factories can be moved out, they will try their best to get outside the city wall.

At the same time as the new paper yard was built, Wang Lang also handed over the blueprint of the steelmaking blast furnace he had designed to the Ministry of Industry, and the steelmaking yard was also built in the lower reaches of the river.

Although the expedition team sent out has not heard the news of the discovery of iron ore, this does not prevent him from starting to build a blast furnace plan. Putting the steelmaking furnace next to the river is also for the purpose of being able to use it when steel is produced in the future. Forging by hydraulic power, although the steelmaking furnace he designed cannot produce fine steel, even the worst steel is more practical than bronze.

Things like bronze can't be used as long weapons, and their toughness is relatively poor. With steel, knives can be made. Although he doesn't know much about cold weapons, he also knows that the role of swords in ancient wars is much more practical than bronze daggers. , The knife can replace the sword, there is definitely a certain reason.

When Linhe was busy carrying out construction projects, it took more than two months for Mufeng's artisan team to arrive at the seaside.

Before leaving, Wang Lang had explained the construction requirements of the pier in detail, and this rocky cliff was definitely not suitable.

At this time, Mu Feng called an explorer who had been here before, and asked, "Is there any place near here that has no cliffs and has forests?"

The man nodded and said: "Return to Shangshu, walk north from here for half a day, there is a flat land over there, and there are some trees there."

"You lead the way in front and inform the team to head north. The soldiers are on high alert in the air, don't let those animals peck their lives!" Mu Feng quickly ordered.

The guard bowed to his command and urged the team to turn around and head north.

Half a day later, the team arrived at a savannah area. Some wild beasts could be faintly seen resting on the ground deep in the grass. The coastline here was curved, the sea was calm, and there was no beach here. It can be said to be a natural port.

Of course, Mufeng didn't know about good ports and bad ports, but his intuition told him that it was a good place to build ports and shipyards here.

"Shang Shu, shall we stop here?" the guard asked.

Mu Feng nodded hungry and said: "Let's rest here, send out half of the soldiers to clean up the beasts here, and the craftsmen will cut down wood to build a residence." Mu Feng quickly ordered.

The team acted immediately, one took away and took his men, left the team and walked towards the grassland, those wild beasts saw a group of humans walking towards them, but they didn't come to attack, as if they had encountered a natural enemy, they got up quickly After running a long way, Kung Fu disappeared after a while.

The strange behavior of these animals surprised the soldiers who watched.

"Boss, why don't we do anything, why are they running away?" A soldier scratched his head and said.

"I don't understand this. I haven't seen a few beasts near Wucheng for a long time. I didn't expect these guys to come here. I think they were frightened by our previous hunting. , I didn’t expect these beasts to have such a day.” Ba Zong said with a cold snort.

All the soldiers suddenly looked stunned, and their morale rose sharply. This group of soldiers just walked around the grassland, like a demonstration, and cleared the seaside area without even firing a crossbow.
