Chapter 118
Lin Chunnong really didn't realize that there are so many talents in Yishui Village, and then he heard his family at the end of Qiu bluntly said: "I didn't tell lies, you just stole people. I have seen it many times. There are people from our village. There are people from other villages."

As he said that, he turned his head and glanced at the people who had heard about this incident and ran over to watch the fun, and the expressions of several men changed immediately.

Lin Jiale said: "Children are like this, they will treat you as you treat them."

Does this mean that the Hanshui family lied?
Aunt Lian immediately shouted loudly and stopped arguing. Chen Jinming yelled, "If you want to go back to your own house, you really can't live anymore. You still care about the two children. What do you want to do? Look around Our village dare not tell you to leave, leaving the pillar unattended?"

"Second brother, how are you talking?" Chen Jinming's elder brother Chen Jinfa immediately scolded, Chen Jinming looked over coldly, Chen Jinfa immediately bowed his head and took a step back.

"Village chief, are you partial to their family?" Aunt Lian pointed at Lin Chunnong's family, trembling like cabbage in the cold winter.

Chen Jinming glanced at her, and said: "My girl is right. People are almost out of drink, and you are still willing to pour the ground? Let me tell you Widow Li, I can't get used to it. If it weren't for my father Mother said it was not easy to see you as a widow, so I stopped letting you fetch water yesterday."

Li Lianhua took a few steps back after being told, and looked up at the villagers in the yard. Everyone had indifference and dissatisfaction on their faces, and broke down and cried in an instant: "I also know that there is a lack of water, but there is no food harvest. I’m going to starve to death. Our family doesn’t have food in stock, so I want to collect more food, what’s wrong with me?”

Lin Jiale hugged her daughter so as not to be frightened, and said coldly: "You are right, but you are stupid and selfish. Without food, you can last seven or eight days before you die. If you don't drink, you can finish playing in three or two days. Besides Is your family running out of food now? Why would you use water resources that are already bottoming out to invest in food that will take more than a month to harvest."

"What's more, didn't my daughter-in-law tell you? The grain seeds I made are drought-resistant, even if they are not watered all the time, the grains will not be harvested."

The more Lin Jiale talked, the more ugly his face became.Although there are some words that the people in Yishui Village don't understand, the more they don't understand them, the more they are convinced by Lin Lao Er, who is a merchant.

Seeing that this man was so unkind, Widow Li felt ashamed and uncomfortable, so she rushed out of the crowd covering her face.

Two men looked anxiously at Widow Li who was going away, but they were embarrassed to chase because there were people in the yard.

Chen Jinming, however, was not in the mood to care about this mess. He said to Lin Jiale: "Just now I said to go to you, let's discuss it in the village first. If there is no water, it will be gone. We have to make preparations in advance. .”

What can Lin Jiale do, and he has never experienced this kind of drought, "This kind of thing is nothing more than two methods, increasing revenue and reducing expenditure. I really need to make strict regulations with the villagers first. At present, save water and save energy. "

After all, they don't know if they can find a new water source in the mountains. If there is really no water in the area, they have to go out to find it.

If you really can't keep going, you have to leave your hometown to survive like those disaster victims.

Needless to say these words, everyone knew in their hearts that if they couldn't stay in their hometown, all kinds of disasters that could be imagined would be waiting for them.

Fleeing from famine has always been rare.

The old people in the village have seen all kinds of disasters, and when they think of those scenes like purgatory on earth, all of them turn pale.

"Jia Le, what you said is completely for the sake of the village. Don't worry, you don't have to worry about this. We old men promise that nothing like Widow Li will ever happen again." Father Chen Jinming got off immediately guaranteed.

Lin Jiale said with a smile: "So I feel relieved. Also, let's count the wells that can still produce water later, and then arrange people for each well, and each household will fetch a bucket of water every two days."

"Well, now every village is rushing to fetch water. If our village doesn't fetch water, wouldn't all the well water flow to other villages and be beaten away by other villagers?" Chen Xian, the only scholar in the village, frowned and expressed his empathy. Opinion.

Lin Jiale shook his head, "Dare to be a brother, what you said is possible, but if we fetch water blindly now, the well water will not return in time, and it will dry up faster. Do this first, and wait until there is no water. , while we go into the mountains to find water, we will divide the well into a team and dig the well a few meters deep."

Because he is a scholar, Chen Xian has his own words, so he has to be more particular when speaking with others.

Chen Xian listened and remained silent for a while.

At this time, someone said: "Maybe it will rain soon."

Regarding this point, Lin Jiale can tell him with certainty, no, since her daughter can dream about the weather in Yishui Village, she is not allowed to live without dreams.

You said that she has dreamed of drought since the beginning of spring, how can the degree of drought be low?
If it really didn't rain for three to five years, they really had to prepare for the family to move.In ancient times, there was no rain for several years, so nothing is impossible.

After discussing for a while in the courtyard of the village chief's house, everyone dispersed and made an appointment to come back in the evening.

Fang Xiaocao didn't know that the neighboring village would come to discuss the matter of going out to the mountains to find water, so she asked her husband on the way: "What else is there to discuss?"

Isn't it important to do things right now?
Lin Jiale just said it, and Fang Xiaocao heard the words, and said: "At this time, it is good to have many people unite, but too many people also means too many voices, and it may be chaotic. You should pay attention."

Their family only has Lin Jiale as a labor force, so they must follow them into the mountains to find water.

Lin Jiale was very heavy in his heart, but he didn't want to show it to worry his family, so he agreed with a smile, pinched his daughter's fleshy face in his arms, and asked: "I'm going back, dad will call you Flower chicken to eat?"

Lin Chunnong hummed, she was thinking about the weather prediction dream she had almost every day before, she looked at her father and said, "Father, what if it really won't rain for a long time and there is no water to be found? ?”

Lin Jiale smiled and comforted her daughter, "Of course not. Even if there is no spring water on such a big mountain, we can find a place to dig a well. We will definitely not be thirsty."

If you are not thirsty, you still have to store water first. They have already reached the entrance of the village while talking, and there is a road to the east, and the mouth of the east well is almost at the end.

Lin Qiumo stopped and said, "Uncle, Auntie, our bucket is still standing by the well, I'll fill it up and go back."

Lin Jiale bowed his head. This child had a sense of crisis more than the adults whose family had returned to Xinshou Village. He immediately put his daughter on the ground, "Go home, I'll pick it up."

Half a month later, fewer and fewer people from the surrounding villages sent to Yishui Village to go up the mountain with them to find water. This morning, Lin Chunnong woke up and got dressed. The house was quiet, and the kitchen pot There was food in the box, and my parents and Qiu Mo went out again.

In the pot is a large bowl of pimple soup, a steamed bun, and a plate of stir-fried mung bean sprouts.

Now it is not the poor who can eat pimple soup, but the rich.

Lin Chunnong took the dishes out of the pot one by one, put them on the table next to the wall, sat down and ate very seriously.

These days, she only went to the village occasionally to play, but she also heard from Xianghe that in some nearby villages, in order to save water, some people stopped cooking and only ate dry food. When they were extremely thirsty, they would drink saliva to quench their thirst.

Therefore, during this period, even though most people have not given up looking for water, there are already voices of moving villages to find water.

Some people say that there is a big river in the south, so there must be no shortage of water. If you go to the house early and say that you can't return it, if you wait until there are too many people, you will definitely not be able to enter the gate of the city.

Lin Chunnong's family, however, planned not to flee the famine unless they could no longer survive.

Lin Chunnong couldn't finish a large bowl of pimple soup. She drank most of the bowl, and then covered the rest in the pot. When she was thirsty, she drank it as water, and then broke her remaining steamed buns into small pieces. Feed the canines.

After one person and one dog finished eating, the table was wiped clean, and Lin Chunnong came out of the kitchen to visit his brother in the opposite laboratory.

On one side of the laboratory is a large window half the height of a person, half-opened, and the blazing sunlight casts a dazzling mirror on the ground.

Her brother was sitting in a shaded place where the sun couldn't reach, and there were only piles of iron blocks on the long table.

In order to get these irons, their father made two trips to the county town in the past half month.

Lin Chunnong walked across the table, pulled up a chair and sat down, and didn't bother her brother.

After a while, Lin Chunxing finished a stage, and then looked up at his sister, "Have you eaten yet?"

Lin Chunnong nodded, lying on his overlapping arms, and asked, "Brother, can you really make a well drilling machine?"

Lin Chunxing said: "It is possible, but it may take a long time."

To use this thing, there must be electricity. Even though he is confident in all machine manufacturing, but he does not have some primitive tools, so he has to make those first.

Fortunately, he had made a weapon for his sister before, and he had several basic tools, all of which were produced at that time.

However, looking at these things on the table, Lin Chunxing sometimes felt a sense of trepidation in his heart. He deeply knew how great changes the appearance of these things would bring to the world.

Every technological revolution in history has been accompanied by the rapid development of productivity. The transition from steam to electricity took one or two hundred years, but now he directly brings electricity to the world.

Sudden speed, is it better or worse?
Lin Chunnong knew her brother's struggles. She had read a lot of novels and had a big brain. When she saw her brother frowning again, she said, "Brother, don't worry about how to use this. People nowadays believe in gods. Isn’t the immortal coat enough? And what you made is a short-term non-replicable copy, and it won’t bring bad results.”

Lin Chunxing smiled and said, "Don't tell me you want our family to be immortals?"

"It's not impossible," Lin Chunnong rolled his eyes, "I'll go back and write a script first."

"Little girl," Lin Chunxing lowered his head and got busy again as he rubbed his younger sister's head with his hand.

No matter what the result would be, he had to keep his family alive first.
