There is always a system that doesn't want to let me go

Chapter 449 The Male Protagonist 37
They are all scholars who have gone through imperial examinations and have been immersed in officialdom for so long. If they can't even think of preventing natural disasters, then go home and farm.

Of course, it doesn't rule out that the other party is really not the kind of good official who cares about the country and the people, so she can only find another way.

So it's what they should do to drill the well first just in case.

The village head looked at the four elders present and asked them what they meant.

He felt that this could be done in two ways, let's not talk about what the government allowed, let's just talk about digging the river.

The first one: manpower problem.

There are more than 1000 people in their village. The young and old will remove half of them first, and the remaining half will be women's houses...

Can't go back.

There won't be many people left.

But digging a river is still a laborious job, and the strength of a woman's family is always inferior to that of a man.

The second: the question of interests.

As long as it is determined how to dig the river channel, how long it will take to dig, and the required manpower is enough young and middle-aged people in their village, all kinds of preliminary problems have been prepared.

Then the most important question came, their young and middle-aged people all went to dig river channels, so how to count the food and drink during this period?What is the wages for digging the river?
Is it possible to let these people eat at home without paying wages, so let them do white labor?

In that case, who would like to come?
He hired him for a copper coin out of his own pocket.

Hiring 2000 people, the river course has not been easily handled by him.

After a while of silence at the scene, the old man sitting on the top smoking a pipe finally knocked on the table with his pipe, attracting everyone's attention.

"You first report the matter of water diversion from Qingzhou City to the government, and then find someone who can read Fengshui, find out the location of the well, and then invite the well digger to come over."

"After you go out, tell the villagers about the well digging. The money needed for the well digging is divided equally according to the population of the village. Children and the elderly can pay half of it. Do you have any questions?"

At this time, another old man sitting on the left side said: "How about the food for those well diggers?"

When people come to dig wells, they also need to eat.

"This is also the silver taels needed for scoring, so they are counted together. Are there any other questions?"

The old man understood, then nodded and stopped talking.

"No problem, let's go."

Chitose was surprised to see that they didn't avoid her when discussing things and didn't ask her what to do.

Immediately, Chitose said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. I can help you find out the location of the well by walking around the village. The village chief just needs to find the person who drilled the well."

The reason why Chitose agreed to the village chief's invitation to stay was to ensure that the Da'an Village could take the necessary precautions before the drought became severe.

According to the village chief, it hasn't rained for two months. Chitose originally wanted to observe the sky and see how long it will rain.

But Tiandao shielded her, with a posture that you don't want to see.

Chitose had no choice but to figure out a thing or two from the reaction of the Heavenly Dao.

Chitose guessed that the other party was so guarded against her because the drought would be severe.

Given what we have seen before, it is reasonable that the drought will be severe.

When a group of people heard Chitose's words, they all looked at her in unison.

The old man above was silent for a moment, "Then let's take this girl to have a look, I hope she doesn't let us waste this time."

Chitose nodded.

After the matter was finalized, Chitose followed the village head and left.

Before leaving, Chitose looked back at the other four people who were still planning to leave, it seemed that they still had something to say.

In this village, the prestige of the elders is much greater than that of the village head.

Seeing Chitose two steps behind, the village chief paused and waited for her.

Village head: "The girl is kind, but I don't know what the girl is called?"

Chitose withdrew his mind and nodded towards the village chief, "My surname is Qian, just call me Miss Qian."

The village chief smiled when he heard the words, "I still have something to do here, so I'll let someone take Qian girl around the village to see how it is?"

Taking advantage of the early time, he went to the town to find the government to explain the situation, and it is better to make plans early.

Chitose: "No problem."

The village head was full of joy when he heard it.

But the village head still sighed: "Now I am worried that the government will think that we are making a fuss out of a molehill, and think that the drought is not that serious, so they ignore it."

Judging from his many years of experience, it is obviously not right that it has not rained for such a long time and the weather is still so hot.

Chitose couldn't answer this, so he just smiled.

The village head took Chitose back to his home, briefly explained the situation to his family, and at the same time asked his eldest son to call the heads of every household in the village.

After talking about this, the village head asked his daughter-in-law Xiuhua to take Chitose around the village. The two had gotten along before, so they wouldn't feel uncomfortable if someone they knew took Chitose with them.

Village head: "After the place is determined, make a mark and look at it later."

Chitose is still young after all, and the village head is also worried that the well drilling site Chitose is looking for is random, so he hopes to do other things well earlier to allow time for fault tolerance.

The village chief left, Xiuhua looked at Chitose, surprise flashed in his eyes.

It was not easy to find a suitable place to dig a well. She never expected that this girl had the ability to read mountains and rivers.

Chitose followed Embroidery and pretended to go around the village, and would introduce Embroidery to her whenever she met someone.

When those people heard that Chitose was here to help them find the location of the well, they couldn't hide the surprise in their eyes.

Chitose looks like a little girl, but she still has such abilities.

"Can we have a look with Zhao?"

There are still a lot of things I want to ask this little girl, how can she know so much at such a young age?

Xiuhua looked at Chitose, her eyes were full of inquiries.

Those people can also see that whether they can follow suit depends on Chitose's meaning.

Chitose didn't refuse, he just followed if he wanted to.

Seeing Chitose's agreement, the three women, who were still somewhat cautious, immediately became active and began to ask Chitose questions.

The embroidered woman stepped forward and looked at Chitose curiously, "You don't look very old, you are about the same age as my daughter, it's amazing to know so much."

Chitose smiled and said nonsense: "The teaching at home is different from that of other families. We have to learn to live outside."

Chitose's response made the remaining two sister-in-laws regard her as the object of gossip.

The sister-in-law on the right side with a silver hairpin on her head was also curious, "Where did you come from, why are you running around alone at such a young age? The world is not safe now, you should stay at home and don't run around. So as not to be captured by monsters."

Speaking of this, she looked around vigilantly, as if she was afraid of a monster appearing.

"Let me tell you, I went to the town the day before yesterday and heard that a young lady in the city was taken away by a monster. The family was afraid that people would know that their child was unclean, so they didn't even look for it."
