Nongmen Space: A full-level villain dressed as a pitiful girl

Chapter 189 Misfortune Comes Out of Your Mouth
"Miss Xi'er, if it doesn't rain again, the corn won't be planted in the ground at all."

Xi'er thought for a while and said, "Cut the wheat first, and then plow the land. Now we have dug two reservoirs, and there is still some water in them. You can build ditches around your own land. I will work in the carpenter's shop." Let’s build two more waterwheels here, plant the corn first and then talk about the future.”

"Thank you Miss Xi'er."

The villagers left thankfully, Xi'er closed the ledger, got up and went to find Xiao Jian.

"Brother Xiao, how many dividends are there for the common people in the sugar and salt business?"

"3 taels"

"Have someone dig a reservoir, as long as it's wasteland,"

"Should I buy it, or just dig it out?"

"Buy it. Anyway, you don't have to pay taxes for ten years. If you buy it, store the water first. With the water, you can grow lotus root, raise fish, shrimp, and mussels. It's not because of your own inconvenience. I can't marry others in the future." clothes?"

"Okay, then I'll go to the county government to see how much wasteland there is, where it is located, and how many people will be hired, all of which have to be calculated."

"Well, I don't have enough money, so I can draw from the bonuses of several companies. The reservoir must be dug as soon as possible. This can not only store water, but also be used for drainage. You are the mayor of the town. You ordered the villages around us to build canals. If you use a pole to water the ground, it will be a year of the monkey.”

"Okay, I'm going now"

"Well, I'll go to the carpenter's shop to order a few waterwheels, and first let the water in my two ponds ease everyone's anxiety."

"it is good"

The two work separately, one buys wasteland to dig a reservoir, and the other orders a water truck to urge the people to repair the canal. This is not a small project.

As long as the house can be moved, it must be built a canal. If anyone makes trouble, it will be sent directly to the county government, and it will be closed for ten days.

There are really some unscrupulous people who are not afraid of anything. When the canal they built passes through their land, they actually ask the villagers to pay them the toll.

The villagers couldn't afford to offend this kind of scoundrel. After Xi'er found out, he immediately sent Xiao's guards to arrest the head of that family to the county government. You can’t even redeem people with money, so you will be locked up and let you suffer in it.

With the strong support of all parties, the water truck was successfully installed in the reservoir near Heixiong Mountain. Xi'er also hired two workers to deliver water to the canal in turn during the day.

A small water wheel was also installed in the [-]-acre pond next to the vegetable field to supply water for the field there.

Both sides started at the same time, and finally the fields around Huaishu Town were planted with corn, and everyone was relieved, but it was only temporary.

If God never rains, the corn will still dry out in the end.

Xiao Jian bought thousands of acres of wasteland from the county government. He also entrusted this matter to Manager Liang.

This movement is really big, and this is only in Pingyuan County. Their slogan is: There will be reservoirs throughout the north. I hope that all farmers will build their own canals when they are free, so as to save them from having to temporarily build water when there is a drought.

Of course, there must be water canals, and there must be drainage ditches. When the water is high, it will be discharged into the reservoir, and when it is dry, the water from the reservoir will be drained out.

This is a big project that benefits the people. Both Qi Yuan and Liang Zhifu have given great support. They send officials to inspect from time to time to ensure the smooth progress of the project.

The weather is really not beautiful. In June, there has not been a drop of rain. The water in the two reservoirs has bottomed out. If there is no more rain, the crops will really die in the ground.

At night, Xi'er stood in the yard with her hands behind her back, looking up at the sky.

Ji Kang was holding a big watermelon, followed by Mrs. Luo and Hu Yitian.

"doing what?"

"Look why it's raining."

A few people sat down while talking, Ji Kang cut up the watermelon, handed each of them a piece, and finally took a piece himself, and ate it together.

"It's time for some rain, otherwise I won't even be able to eat watermelon, and the land in some places is dry and cracked"

Xi'er bit her lip, she didn't tinker with any elixir these days, she spent her life cultivating in the space every day.

Just broke through to Lingzun yesterday, not because she didn't want to save the people, but because she was not capable enough before, but now she can, but God didn't give her a chance, and there wasn't even a dark cloud.

The four of them wiped their mouths after eating the watermelon, and Hu Yitian sighed.

"The drought in the north is like this, and the flood in the south is like that. It would be good if they complement each other."

Xi'er snorted coldly, "If there is a wise monarch, he will definitely dig river channels and divert the water from the south to the north."

Hu Yitian hurriedly put his finger to his mouth, "Shh~ It's better not to say these things."

"Cut, it's just talk, what's there to be afraid of, like the previous prefects Liu and Han, their mountains are high and the emperor is far away, they can be the emperor of the land with practical actions, but I can't talk about it?"

"Look at me, Master, do you have money? Yes! Do you have power? Yes! But in front of the royal family, it is still like an egg hitting a stone. Since we have chosen an ordinary life, we must act in a low-key manner. Disasters must come from the mouth." Remember."

"I know, I know."

Xi'er kept looking up at the sky in the distance. Hu Yitian was talking to Mrs. Luo and Ji Kang, what they were talking about, but she was actually listening all the time, it was just those:
"This child is really big-minded and has a stubborn temper. However, nine times out of ten her actions are correct. There is really nothing I can do about her."

When she saw the small black cloud in the sky, a long-lost smile appeared on her small face, and she turned around and shouted at them.

"It's too late, go back and rest, I'm going to bed too."

Hu Yitian stood up, "What do you want to do, girl? What time are you going to bed now?"

"I told you to go back to sleep and go to sleep. Why are there so many things?"

Xi'er got up and went back to the room, ignoring them, Mrs. Luo shook her head at Hu Yitian, "This girl is weird, we're used to it, let's go, she said she's going to sleep when she says she's going to sleep."

Seeing the three of them leave her yard, Xi'er pushed the window open, scanned the surroundings with her spiritual sense, and disappeared in a flash.

After a while, the black cloud in the distance drifted towards this side, getting closer and closer, the moon and the starry sky were gradually blocked by this black cloud.

Immediately after the muffled thunder sounded, all the people in Huaishu Town ran out of their houses, looked up at the sky, and shouted excitedly.

"It's going to rain, it's going to rain, it's great, God finally opened his eyes."

Lightning was accompanied by thunder, and the bean-sized raindrops fell in an instant. The people below hurried back to the house. They opened the windows and happily welcomed the arrival of the heavy rain.

The heavy rain lasted for three quarters of an hour, and the disaster here was finally alleviated, and people could finally sleep comfortably.

After the rain stopped, Xi'er appeared in her room, her face turned pale, and the clothes on her body were all rags, she took off the clothes with great difficulty, then took out a set of underwear from the closet and slowly put them on , and then collapsed on the kang out of breath, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

She still underestimated the way of heaven here, thinking that where there is no aura, there are too many rules missing. Her cultivation level is enough to call the wind and rain, but unexpectedly, she was almost killed by lightning.

Alas ~ sloppy!
