?Chapter 113: Chapter 109 Zhou Lan’s Ralei Tactics Chapter 113: Chapter 109 Zhou Lan’s Ralei Tactics The next morning, Yang Mingzhi took a dozen Cavalry to Jianning Guard, but by that afternoon, he had already returned.
Zhou Lan only let him bring back a message to Yang Zhenshan, which was to not worry about those messy affairs and to focus on expanding Yinghe Castle.
Getting Zhou Lan’s reply, Yang Zhenshan also set his mind at ease. Since Zhou Lan had said so, it meant she had plans, and he didn’t need to worry.
The expansion of Yinghe Castle was fast. In just a month, the work to widen and heighten the castle walls was completed, leaving only the construction of houses and streets inside the castle.
However, Yang Zhenshan still wanted to speed things up, so he transferred a group of young and strong workers from Sanshan Castle and Xiangyuan Fortress to help.
Time slowly passed by, and the entire Yinghe Castle was like a large construction site with everyone busy at work.
Inside the garrison, bare-chested young men were constructing houses.
Outside the garrison, by the riverbank, three hundred Cavalry were in training, in the tuntian farmland, a large number of women were managing the estates, and on the hillside, Li Erhu was leading a group of people planting trees.
The weather was getting hotter, and the charcoal business had already stopped, but Yang Zhenshan didn’t disband Li Erhu and others.
They would still make charcoal, burning it two or three times a month. Even though it couldn’t be sold now, it could be stored for sale in the winter.
During their spare time, they would go up the mountain to cut down trees and plant trees, following Yang Zhenshan’s order — for every tree felled, two more would be planted.
When the hillside ran out of space, they would plant in the unused lands at the base of the mountain.
They mainly planted pine trees, but also chestnut trees, hazelnut trees, persimmon trees, and jujube trees among others.
Planting pine trees was for making charcoal, while the other trees were to provide the military households with more edible items.
If only more seedlings were available, Yang Zhenshan would have liked to set aside a piece of wasteland specifically for planting chestnut and hazelnut trees.
In the future, he intended to set up a few stalls selling sugar-roasted chestnuts by the city gates, which would be a nice little business.
Under Yang Zhenshan’s management, Yinghe Castle changed day by day.
Unconsciously, the time came to the eighth day of the eighth month in the twenty-fifth year of Chengping.
