Chapter 1331 Water Surface Aquaculture
Chapter 1331 Water Surface Aquaculture
The names of these two animals were given by Ling Feng.
One looks like a rabbit with snow-white fur, hence it’s named Snow Rabbit.
The other, Fish Hawk, got its name because this large bird resembles an eagle and its meat surprisingly has a seafood-like sweetness.
Li Fei’er had already guessed Ling Feng wanted to start breeding; after hearing him out, she immediately nodded: "No problem, I’ll help you tame them!"
"Great, the remaining thing is to sort out the land issue, and that’s easy!" Ling Feng nodded.
However, Li Fei’er pursed her lips: "That’s actually the hardest part. If you don’t believe me, go ask Sister Yu Mei, it seems there’s not much usable land left around Shiliu Village!"
"Is that so?"
Ling Feng was stunned, then realized that planting vegetables and other crops had already occupied dozens of miles of land, finding a place for a breeding farm was indeed not easy!
But this was no obstacle for him; Ling Feng thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea!
Since there’s not enough land, why not take a different approach?
Xiao Chi Village over there has a huge lake!
However, building a farm on the lake might have high costs and tough engineering challenges!
So Ling Feng shared his idea, and Li Fei’er immediately clapped her hands: "That’s no problem!"
"Oh? How do you know?" Ling Feng asked.
"In the Seventh Heaven, we produce a type of wood that is very light yet very strong. You can build a flat surface on the lake with it and then safely construct houses on top!" Li Fei’er said.
"Is that so? There’s such wood? I haven’t heard Ling Yao mention it!" Ling Feng asked.
"People didn’t think it was useful. Now that you mentioned building on water, I remembered it!" Li Fei’er said.
Ling Feng smiled upon hearing: "That’s fortunate; there really is nothing useless. I’ll go see how much of that wood there is, and whether it’s convenient to cut and transport it!"
"I’ll go with you!"
Li Fei’er linked her arm with his, and the two of them went to the Seventh Heaven together.
Upon entering, a large open space appeared before them. The surrounding weeds and trees had been cleared, and Ling Yao and Long Xiaoyu had built two wooden huts here as temporary resting spots.
At the moment, only Long Xiaoyu was inside the hut, and upon seeing Ling Feng and Li Fei’er arriving, she hurried out of the hut: "Why are you here?"
"Uncle came to look at that very light wood!"
Li Fei’er was quick to explain.
"Oh, hold on, I’ll get a tree for you!"
Long Xiaoyu said and transformed into her Divine Dragon form, disappearing instantly.
Moments later, she returned from the woods carrying a tree.
The tree had a diameter of one meter and a length of over twenty meters, yet it seemed like a toothpick on her tiny shoulder, light and weightless.
Ling Feng was dumbfounded, unable to help but ask: "Is this tree actually so light?"
"Why don’t you try it?"
Long Xiaoyu raised her small hand, and the tree flew towards him!
The massive tree appeared astonishing, but when Ling Feng reached to catch it, he immediately felt it was light, as if such a large tree weighed only about two hundred pounds!
If it were any other tree, its weight would be at least ten times this!
"Light enough, but the toughness still needs testing!"
Ling Feng said, placing the tree on the ground and then took out the God Slayer Saber to cut the trunk.
In a flash, he carved out a wooden plank three meters long and one meter wide.
"How are you planning to test its hardness?" Long Xiaoyu asked.
"That’s simple, just go to the Sixth Layer’s sea and you’ll find out!"
Ling Feng smiled, taking the plank and the two women away from there.
At the Sixth Heaven’s sea surface, he tossed the plank, and it floated on the water.
Ling Feng leaped over and landed on it.
Then Li Fei’er and Long Xiaoyu went up too.
The combined weight of the three was over three hundred pounds, yet standing on this three-square-meter plank, it still floated on the water, showcasing the wood’s toughness!
Ling Feng was delighted, laughed heartily, and said: "Now it’s settled. The lake in Xiao Chi Village is very large; with this wood, a few hundred acres of water farm is no problem at all!"
"You can’t possibly cut it piece by piece by yourself, right?" Long Xiaoyu asked.
"Of course not, just get your Chasing Dragon Clan to send some workers, won’t you?" Ling Feng smiled.
Long Xiaoyu nodded: "Alright, you get some cutting machines, and I’ll start cutting the planks for you."
"Deal!"
Ling Feng excitedly left Nine Heavens and went straight to the county town.
After buying wood cutting machines, he went to Mo Jiaolan’s place.
Talking about the water farm, Mo Jiaolan asked: "You can’t just do this on your own, it’s best to ask the higher management department."
"True, but don’t worry, it’s easy to sort out!"
Ling Feng chuckled, and directly called Chen Yan.
After explaining his idea, Chen Yan said: "You want me to call my dad? No need, he’s coming to the county today, you can tell him yourself then!"
"Huh? Mr. Ding is coming here?" Ling Feng asked.
Chen Yan: "Yeah, last time he mentioned wanting to inspect that lake, didn’t he?"
"What a coincidence, then!"
Ling Feng nodded and continued: "I’ll come find you later, and then I’ll tell him my thoughts face to face!"
"You should go on your own, I’m busy and can’t come!" Chen Yan refused directly.
Ling Feng was taken aback: "What are you busy with?"
"Bureau matters, not telling you, hanging up now!"
Chen Yan said no more and hung up directly.
Seeing the screen go dark, Ling Feng looked puzzled: "What’s going on?"
He didn’t know what could be so busy at the Safety Bureau, enough to make phone conversations impossible!
Thinking for a moment, he looked back at Mo Jiaolan: "I’ll go meet Ding Qingfeng later; once he agrees, the water farm project will be practically finalized!"
"I’ll go with you then; someone from the provincial government is coming, and the county government will definitely assign a special reception team. I’ve been dealing with them a lot recently," Mo Jiaolan said.
Ling Feng nodded: "Alright, then it depends on you to take me there!"
Mo Jiaolan glanced at him: "Come on, everyone knows you; you’re just always being elusive, they don’t see you often!"
"Should I change into better clothes?" Ling Feng asked.
After all, it’s to meet government officials, shouldn’t it be more formal?
Mo Jiaolan nodded: "Yes, change your clothes; there’s some prepared for you in the lounge, pick any you like!"
"Really? You planned ahead?"
Ling Feng was stunned for a moment, then stepped into the lounge.
