The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1042

Chapter 1042: Chapter 878, Take Root

Upon first arriving at the Gan State Guard, Xiao Yeyang devoted himself entirely to military training and defense. Only by ensuring the safety of the Gan State Guard and holding off the people of Xiliao could development in the area begin.

Daohua was busy as well, busy reclaiming wasteland, opening shops, and building pastures.

The Gan State Guard was the poorest and least populated among the nine guards of Xiliang. Its proximity to Xiliao meant it suffered from the constant threat of war, severely hindering its economic development.

What she needed to do now was to produce a large quantity of grain, to disseminate the grain seeds, and to give the local people hope, easing their livelihoods. Once life improved for the locals, it would naturally attract people from other areas.

The Imperial Court provided little support to Xiliang, so if Xiao Yeyang wanted to make a mark here, he had to establish not only a complete military defense system but also a matching system for the production and supply of materials.

Clearly, grain was the most crucial aspect of this system.

Thus, Daohua paid far more attention to the wasteland than to the shops and pastures.

When the ironworks delivered tools like spades, Daohua immediately instructed Yan Shouhou to send them to the slope.

"Miss, Master Tan from the carpentry shop has finished making the wheelbarrow and would like to know if you’d come to see if it meets your expectations."

Daohua promptly went to the front yard.

The wheelbarrows in the Gan State Guard were all two-wheeled and comparatively large. On flat land, one person could pull it, but on the slopes, it took one person pulling in front and another pushing from behind to move it.

What she had commissioned from the carpenter was single-wheeled and more compact so that even on slopes, one person could manage it alone.

When she saw the single-wheeled wheelbarrow the carpenter made and noted its stability and durability, she nodded with satisfaction and turned to Master Tan, "I urgently need these wheelbarrows. How many can you produce in a day?"

Master Tan replied, "Madam, these wheelbarrows are easy to make. With my apprentices, we should be able to make about five a day."

Daohua shook her head, "That’s not enough." She paused before continuing, "Master Tan, I need a thousand wheelbarrows, and I’m giving you the entire order."

"You can hire extra help or get other carpenters you know to work with you. I don’t care about the specifics of the process, I just need you to deliver between twenty and thirty wheelbarrows a day to me. More would be better, of course."

"Of course, there can’t be any issues with the quality of the wheelbarrows. Master Tan, can you take on this order?"
