?Chapter 436: Chapter 435: The Gathering of the Three Dragons (Additional Release, Requesting Monthly Pass) Chapter 436: Chapter 435: The Gathering of the Three Dragons (Additional Release, Requesting Monthly Pass) Blackfire Festival, a day off for the Blackflame Plains, where the serfs no longer had to work hard and could freely roam anywhere they pleased.
Some young men and women, hand in hand, wove their way through the groves.
Then there were the elderly serfs, puffing on their pipes, reminiscing about life in the Volcanic Oasis of times gone by.
There were also itinerant peddlers, selling their wares from horse-drawn carts along the roads, pushing hand carts deep into the new settlements, or simply carrying their goods in boxes, peddling them on the ridges of fields. They sold tofu, sundries, bread—all sorts of things.
The land reclamation planning blueprint for Blackflame Plains had almost been set.
On the triangular territory, with Cigar Castle at the center, spring water flowed toward the northwest, southwest, and directly east—half due to natural erosion, half deepened by human digging. Three great rivers had been carved out, and with these rivers as the main channels, many irrigation ditches had been developed.
The many estates of the future would be divided according to these three rivers.
The river flowing northwest, passing through the Black Oil Mine, was called Black Water River; the river flowing southwest with newly reclaimed farms on both banks was called Red Water River; the river flowing due east, which could join Leize in the future, was named Xiangshui River.
The Black Water River was likely to flow into a cavern and then disappear into the underground stream.
Red Water River, on the other hand, could potentially converge with Glowing River, forming a larger river before continuing to flush southward.
The reclamation sites were located on the banks of these three great rivers.
Every few kilometers there was a reclamation site which would later become the center of an estate. According to such planning, it was much more orderly compared to Glowing Valley.
This was a territory with flat terrain, an advantage that facilitated such systematic planning.
