Liya nodded: "Yes, that's it. Once the cement road is built, it will be much more convenient to travel back and forth, and no one will get lost in the desert anymore."
"Want to build a cement road in the desert? Not to mention the consumption of manpower and material resources, this thing itself is basically impossible to do." Morgan thought about the environment in the desert and felt that Leah was a little too whimsical.
She also knew that it would be a great thing if the north-south roads could be connected, but it was simply impossible!
But in fact, it is possible to build roads in the desert. For example, in reality, my country's Taklimakan Desert Highway was built in the desert.
Leah also knew this, which is why she wanted to build a road in the desert.
But just like Morgan said, not to mention the financial issue, the problem of manpower alone is difficult for them to solve now.
Perhaps this desert road is more difficult to build than the Great Wall built by Qin Shihuang.
This is how later generations described these things.
"The harm is in the present, but the benefit will last for generations to come!
Whether it was the Great Wall or the Grand Canal, they both cost countless manpower and financial resources, and in the end even caused the country to go bankrupt.
Leah thought about it and could only sigh.
If she wants to connect Xinjiang and Hexi, she needs to at least unify the country first. It is too early to think about this now.
Leah thought about it and decided that she should find a way to capture some people from other countries and directly build various roads, railways, and dig rivers in her own country.
As long as these people are from other countries, I think I will not be criticized in my country.
Igraine listened to the conversation between her two daughters, but she didn't understand a word. It didn't matter if she didn't understand. She was not interested in these things. It would be more interesting to hug her granddaughter.
"By the way, Leah. I heard from Morgan that this child is your daughter with her. Is this true?" Igraine asked.
Alice almost spit out the food in her mouth while eating silently. The daughter of Sister Leah and Sister Morgan? Is this something I can listen to???
But aren't Sister Leah and Sister Morgan both girls? Can girls give birth to children? Doesn't the book say that only when the yin and yang of a man and a woman come together can a child be born?
Alice thought about what she had learned and was suddenly plunged into silence.
Leah's face also turned red because of Igraine's words. She looked at her mother and felt that her eyes held a different look.
"Well... maybe, maybe." Leah finished her words hesitantly.
How can you say that you were forced to have this child by Morgan?
"I don't know what to say about your sister's affairs... Forget it, you already have a child. I just hope that you two can be fine and safe."
Igraine really didn't know how to explain this matter. When Morgan first said that the father of the child was Leah, she didn't dare to believe it. She thought Morgan was deceiving her and didn't want her to know who the father of the child was.
Now that Leah has admitted it, it means that this granddaughter is indeed the fruit of their marriage. I can only sigh.
Although it is unlikely for girls to give birth to children, she has always known that her two daughters are not ordinary people and cannot be treated as ordinary people.
Forget it, why should she care so much about her daughters' affairs, she might as well play with her granddaughter. Thinking of this, Igline started to tease Long Luxin.
Seeing that Igraine did not continue asking, Leah breathed a sigh of relief and could only glare at her sister.
Morgan didn't care at all about the little threat from his sister, instead he found it cute.
Chapter 91 Morgan is going to be dishonest again
At night, Leah was alone in the garden, leaning against a pillar, looking up at the stars in the night sky. Countless stars were shining brightly in the sky, and it felt like the whole night sky was covered with gems.
In the world of the 21st century, the starlight is completely obscured by the street lights, and this kind of scene cannot be seen except in the countryside.
However, I have lived in this world for so long that I am used to it, so I didn’t feel particularly moved. I just looked at the bright moon in the sky and felt a little emotional.
For some reason I miss home, that home from the future, and I don’t know how my parents are doing.
Looking at the familiar night sky, Leah sighed.
"Sister, why are you still outside? Aren't you going to take a rest?" A voice suddenly came from behind. Leah turned around and found that her sister was holding down her hair that was blown by the cold wind with her hands, with a gentle smile on her face.
"I remembered something. Sister, didn't you sleep either?" Leah was a little surprised to see Morgan coming out of the room.
In ancient times, unlike modern times, the entire street would fall into silence as soon as it got dark. If it was not a major festival, people who were tired after a day of work would choose to rest early.
It’s not like modern times, where the fun only begins at night.
However, Leah believed that that time would not be too long. The knowledge in her mind was enough to develop the world to the level of the 19th century.
As long as there is electricity, many things can be made.
The productivity of manpower is too low compared to technology. As long as electricity is available, productivity will increase rapidly.
"Is that so... Then I'll accompany you." Morgan sat down quietly beside Leah, and a unique sweet fragrance of a woman rushed into Leah's nose.
Leah turned her head to look at her sister, smiled, and leaned directly on her, looking up at the sky. The two pairs of soft human hearts on Morgan's chest made her feel very comfortable.
After a while, Morgan touched Leah's blonde hair and asked casually, "Sister, what were you thinking about just now?"
"Homesick."
"Home?" Morgan frowned slightly and looked at Leah with some confusion.
"Yeah, home." Leah didn't explain, just nodded slightly, then looked at Morgan.
"Sister, how do you feel about handling government affairs in the past six months?"
After Leah set out for the Western Regions, she handed over almost all matters in Hexi to Morgan. However, because many of her policies and guidelines were different from those in this world, she must have had many arguments with her ministers.
Although Merlin once opposed Leah's actions, Leah did not listen to Merlin's advice. It was because Artoria listened to Merlin too much that she was killed. Leah would naturally not make this mistake.
Of course, this doesn't mean that you don't listen to Merlin, but it doesn't mean that you should blindly obey him. Leah will naturally adopt the good ideas.
Since Morgan likes power, Leah will give her all the power, let her handle all the affairs for her behind her and be responsible for regulating the country, and she will be her general in the northern expedition.
Similar to Zhu Di and his son.
In this way, she must have realized that being a good king is not so easy, right? This is not something she can do behind the scenes.
The moment you gain power, while enjoying giving orders, you must also be responsible for those orders.
So Leah handed over all the government affairs in the rear to her, and she watched from the side and would remind her if there was anything wrong.
For now, Morgan is handling the situation pretty well under Leah's "training".
"How should I put it? I used to think that the king just sat on the throne and gave orders. He did whatever he wanted, and the people below just followed his orders. But the things I dealt with during this period of time didn't seem to make me happy in that way."
Morgan's eyes showed a hint of confusion.
After Leah left and handed over all matters in the rear to her, she originally thought that she could do whatever she wanted. However, when she really took action, she found that her policies were hindered everywhere.
Today, someone either reported to him that something was wrong, or some rats hiding behind the scenes were working against him. Although those ministers did not openly scold her, Morgan knew it better than anyone else. She was obviously very angry, but she couldn't get rid of these people. Sometimes she was almost hurt.
"Sister, unless you want to be a tyrant, although you will feel good about it, but if you ignore the lives of the people, then this country will be on the verge of destruction. Even if you are a tyrant, you won't be able to be a tyrant for long." Leah said with a smile.
She has just started her career, so what foundation do she have to support them in becoming tyrants? Unless she has laid a good foundation, then when Morgan comes to power, she will have the opportunity to become the tyrant.
Now Morgan and I have both started from scratch, and we both know that this is not easy to come by, so how can we be tyrants?
"Oh..." Morgan couldn't help but sigh.
The longevity of a country is naturally inseparable from the support of the people. How can a king who is absurd and unbridled be loved by the people? If a king does not know how to sympathize with the people and even bullies his subordinates, it is only a matter of time before a civil uprising occurs.
Since he had already decided to let Morgan handle government affairs for him in the future, he told her some anecdotes from the previous dynasty to warn her.
But as we were talking, the situation started to take a turn for the worse.
"Um, sister, can you please stop what you are doing?" Leah raised her head, looking at Morgan with a slightly blushing face and a hint of shyness on her face.
It turned out that Morgan had been holding Leah in her arms without anyone noticing, and her hands were moving unnaturally on Leah's body.
And Morgan's body also pressed against hers, as if he wanted to rub her into her body
Leah was immediately panicked, not only because of Morgan's actions, but also because of the touch after the physical contact.
She was talking seriously with Morgan about the rise and fall of history, okay?
"Don't you like it?" Morgan looked down at Leah, his eyes full of tenderness.
Leah was a little overwhelmed by this undisguised love for her and didn't know how to respond.
"If you don't answer, I'll assume that you like me doing this too." A sly smile flashed across Morgan's face, and his hands continued to move on Leah's body, gradually becoming more and more unbridled.
Realizing that Morgan's hands were playing tricks on her body, Leah's face naturally turned red.
Leah tried to struggle, but Morgan held her very tightly. She could not break free unless she used magic, but that would hurt Morgan.
Chapter 92: Obtaining Skills from Morgan Again
Leah hesitated for a moment, but finally let go of her prejudice against Morgan and said with some shame on her face: "Well...even if we want to do it...don't do it here, let's go back to the house."
After saying this, Leah's face turned red. Wasn't this saying that she agreed with Morgan's misbehavior towards her?
Morgan couldn't help but feel happy when she heard this. This time she was not forcing her sister, but making her sister do it willingly.
"Sister, do you like black stockings or white stockings?" Morgan suddenly asked.
Liya was a little confused. She didn't know why Morgan suddenly said this. "What black or white stockings? I don't care what you want to wear!"
Morgan blinked but didn't say anything else. Instead, he held Leah and walked towards her room.
One night is full of romance!
"System, successfully activated! You have successfully acquired a skill from the opponent (Water Mirror Technique·Space Transfer). Host, keep up the good work●●●!"
Water Mirror Technique·Space Transfer: Can create a mirror-like space, where the other end of the mirror can reach the place you want to go, and the distance depends on your own magic power.
The next day, Leah got up from the bed feeling a little weak, with the sheets still a little wet. Thinking of what happened last night, Leah's face couldn't help but turn red, followed by deep regret.
I was so careless last night that I fell into my own sister's trap. I must be more careful next time!
But this time she did get a good skill from Morgan. The Water Mirror Technique, as the introduction showed, is a teleportation magic!
This skill is much more useful than summoning skeletons. Originally, using skeletons as laborers is a good choice, but they are skeletons. If they are seen by others, wouldn't it be a disaster?
"Oh, I figured it out!"
When talking about coolies, Liya suddenly thought of something. Wasn't she going to build a road in the desert? It was definitely inappropriate to let ordinary people build roads in the desert, but what about letting skeletons build cement roads?
Anyway, skeletons don't know how to get tired, and they don't need to drink water or eat. If we just take them to the desert to build a road, maybe the effect will be unexpectedly good.
Moreover, there are basically no people in the desert, so you won’t be discovered.
Even if she is really discovered by someone, she will be considered a ghost that died in the desert. No one will think that she did it, and people will not panic.
However, it still needs to be tested. Although Leah has acquired this skill, she has never used it. She also doesn't know the limits of these skeletons and whether they can do this job.
Thinking of this, Leah decided to find a place to try.
But she still had to change the bed sheets and quilts first. For something like this, Liya was too embarrassed to ask the maid to come and tidy up. If the servants knew what happened last night, how could she put her face aside?
Leah simply threw the sheets into the river outside the window, but what she didn't know was that some small fish swam over, drank the remaining traces, and gradually some changes occurred.
In ancient times, it was said that dragon urine could cause fish in the river to mutate. Does this seem to be true?
Liya found Ning'er and asked where her sister had gone, only to find out that she had gone to the court meeting.
Since she had already gone to the court meeting, she was no longer in the mansion. Leah asked someone to prepare some breakfast. After finishing it, she looked at a fish bone on the table and fell into deep thought.
After thinking about it, Leah placed one hand on the fish bone, and the magic power passed through her palm and entered the fish bone.
Then, a faint blue light suddenly appeared in the eyes of the fish bone, and then, without anyone touching it, it began to move on the plate.
But after just a few movements, the fish's bones scattered all over the ground, and the light in its eyes gradually dissipated.
"Huh? Is it a problem with the bones?" Leah was a little confused when she saw this.
Because these fish were cooked, the properties of the bones had already changed, so they would break into pieces if they were moved slightly.
After thinking about it, Liya felt that she still needed to find some large things to try.
After having the table cleaned up, Leah returned to her room. She wanted to try out the effect of the Water Mirror Technique. Leah thought about it and summoned a Water Mirror.
Looking at the water mirror, Leah walked straight in. When she came out, she saw a water mirror suddenly appearing on a piece of yellow sand, and then Leah walked straight out of the water mirror.
This is a desert area outside Yumen Pass. It is almost 1000 kilometers from Liangzhou to Yumen Pass. She didn't expect that she could reach such a far place after using half of her magic power.
But this skill is really useful. A place thousands of miles away can be reached in a flash. It is a bit similar to the fairy magic of shrinking the distance into an inch.
Although the price was that half of her magic power was consumed, as the incarnation of a dragon, her magic power recovered extremely quickly, and the consumed magic power could be recovered within a day.
Leah thought about it and started walking in the desert. After more than ten minutes, she found a large bone almost buried by the yellow sand. Judging from its appearance, it should be a camel.
Leah walked forward and touched the camel's bones. When she was planning to try out the skeleton summoning technique on the camel, she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from not far away in the desert. The sounds came from far away, and there were a total of more than ten horses.
