Chapter 177

That night, Zhao Luoyang didn't fall asleep at first, thinking about things in the village.

All the preparations now are obviously not enough for everyone to survive the winter. There is not enough food in the village, and there is not enough firewood.Feng Laosan took a few people to find wood and firewood, walked a long way, and even used a donkey cart to pull back a cart.

This carload of firewood seems to be a lot, but it is enough for everyone to use for three or four days, so we have to save it.

In winter, we can't rely entirely on firewood, and we have to get some charcoal back anyway.

When it was three o'clock, Zhao Xueli came back from inspection, and Luo Zhenniang went down to greet her.

Zhao Luoyang listened to his parents talking.

Zhao Xueli said: "What are you doing up? Go back to sleep, my body is too cold."

Luo Zhenniang said: "Who will replace it?"

Zhao Xueli said: "Brother Niu and the boy from the Wei family, and the boy from the Shi family and Wei Shan."

Luo Zhenniang nodded: "That kid Wei Shan doesn't like talking very much. I remember when I went to the mountain stream to stop the mountain bandits, he was so scared that he ran around. It seems to be fine now."

"Well," Zhao Xueli responded, "That kid has grown up, and he told me yesterday that if something happens to him next time, he won't be the same as last time."

"Didn't he just hide to save Mr. Zhao? It's the old calendar, let's turn the page!"

"I said the same thing."

Hearing the voice from the outside room, Zhao Luoyang turned over and fell asleep again.

When Shi Jiu was here, she slept soundly every time, not because she felt that there was a system and she didn't have to worry about everything, but because Shi Jiu was here and she was used to it.

Only when she knows that everyone around her is good can she feel at ease.

Now everyone is together, but Shi Jiu doesn't know where he went, when will he come back, if Shi Jiu just disappears like this...

Zhao Luoyang never thought about this before.

Can she ask the system if she can let Shi Jiu stay after completing the task in the future?
At that time, she will definitely not use the wealth and charm points in the system, and she will no longer use the system to help. As long as Shi Jiu is always around, it will be good to talk to her every day.

Zhao Luoyang clearly knows that Shi Jiu is not a human being but a system, but her concern for Shi Jiu is the same as that of her family.

I just don't know if Shi Jiu is willing or not, after all, the system's world is much better than hers.

"Can't sleep?" Old Madam Yang's voice came.

Zhao Luoyang was taken aback: "Grandma, why haven't you slept yet?"

Mrs. Yang sighed softly: "Think about the charcoal. You can't keep burning firewood all winter. Burning firewood is inseparable from people, and no one can sleep well."

"In the afternoon, Mr. Song said that he knew how to burn charcoal. He read it from a book and asked everyone to try it tomorrow. We used to go to the charcoal kiln to get charcoal. Now he says he can burn it by himself, but you say you can. Can't believe it?"

Mrs. Yang admits that Mr. Song has a lot of eyes, but can he do what he reads in the book?
She doesn't believe it.

Seeing Mr. Song's appearance that he couldn't even hold a bowl for a meal, she felt that this person was not good enough, and if he couldn't do it, he would be mad at himself to death.

Zhao Luoyang said: "Then let Mister try it."

Mrs. Yang stared: "Is it so easy to try? You can't find soil to build a kiln? Even if you build a small one, it will take several people to hang around for a day."

Zhao Luoyang said: "What do you think, what if it works? If you go farther now, you can still find wood. It's cheaper to burn charcoal with wood than to buy charcoal."

This is true.Mrs. Yang pondered: "Let me think about it again." The old bastard also said that he could do this and that in the past. After reading a few books, he felt that he could become a fairy, and lost his temper when he couldn't.

Who knows if Grandpa Song will do this?
Zhao Luoyang talked to her grandma for a while, but fell asleep. When she woke up again, it was just dawn.She got up quickly, got dressed, ate some food, and followed her father and third uncle to find the Zhuangzi in the car.

Walking on the road, I saw many people on the road.

Zhao Xueli said: "The vicinity of Taozhou City is full of people, and these people all went to other places to settle down."

When the three of the Zhao family drove the donkey cart past, they could clearly see the envious expressions in the eyes of those people.

Zhao Xuejing said: "It's still lucky for us to be able to come here and earn money on the way to buy livestock."

Moreover, none of the sixteen households was left behind, and even the child in Dow's belly was fine. In May next year, their Zhao family will be able to import a baby.

The three of them talked all the way, and they saw a Zhuangzi very smoothly.

Zhao Xueli said: "There are quite a few Zhuangzi here, one on each side of the east and west."

The surrounding land is flat and easy to cultivate at first glance, so it is not surprising that Zhuangzi is here.

Zhao Xueli jumped out of the car: "I'll go find out which one it is."

Zhao Luoyang saw that her father was going to the east, so she walked west, wanting to ask, but before she got to Zhuangzi, she saw someone coming out.

Zhao Luoyang greeted her hurriedly: "Auntie."

When the woman in her 40s heard this, she looked at Zhao Luoyang.

Zhao Luoyang smiled and said, "Auntie, I want to ask you something."

Without waiting for the woman to speak, Zhao Luoyang saw the dirt on the woman's dress, and hurriedly stepped forward to help pat it: "Where are you going?"

Lu Shi didn't want to talk at first, but when he saw that the little girl was so kind, and she didn't dislike the dirt and helped her tidy her dress, she sighed softly in her heart, "What do you want to know? Ask for directions?"

Zhao Luoyang shook his head: "We are from Fengxia Village. I heard that there was a fire in the village here and we needed people to pull bricks. It happened that my family had idle animals, so I came to ask if I could get some work and earn some money for fodder. .”

When Lu Shi heard this, the expression on her face became more relaxed. It turned out that she was very clear about asking these questions.

Mrs. Lu stretched out her hand and pointed: "You are looking for the wrong one. It's not this Zhuangzi, but the one across the road. His owner's surname is Huang. A few days ago, there was a big fire in the Zhuangzi, which burned half the sky red. It's amazing. They They are buying bricks and earth everywhere these days. But I don’t know if they are short of manpower, you can ask.”

Zhao Luoyang hurriedly thanked: "Are you going out? If you are not in a hurry, we will make room for a ride in the donkey cart later, but we don't know if you are going in the direction of the city."

"No need," Shi Lu waved his hand, "You still have to find work, and I have to go and come back quickly, without delay."

Lu Shi and Zhao Luoyang said as they walked: "Fengxia Village, your surname is Gao?"

Zhao Luoyang shook his head: "We are immigrants who have just moved here. We are not familiar with the place where we live. Thanks to meeting you."

I heard that it was the migrant Lu who had a strange look on his face. The people here don't have much affection for the migrants. After all, they are here to grab food and drink from them. Who would be happy?
But the girl in front of me looked good.

"There have been too many changes recently," Lu said. "It's not easy for you to find a job. Fortunately, there are livestock. If it was in the past, I could help you ask the head of the village if there is anything to do. Now it's not possible. Zhuangzi here has been bought by others, not to mention you outsiders looking for jobs, even those of us who often work for Zhuangzi, don’t know if we can stay.”

Zhao Luoyang glanced behind him again: "Swapped?"

If the owner is changed, maybe Zhuangzi will make a big move, which is the time when manpower is needed.

Zhao Luoyang said: "Auntie, do you think this is okay? If the village needs manpower here, you can help us talk, we will definitely not lose to Auntie, we are in Fengxia Village, a family named Zhao."

Before, Mrs. Lu would help the Zhuangtou to find people. Maybe the new owner could manage to work on the Zhuangzi. Zhao Luoyang would keep an eye on this Zhuangzi himself. Now talking to Mrs. Lu like this is to prepare a way for himself .

Who knows which way will work?
As for how much money Zhuangzi will give and whether they want to work, that's all their business.

"I don't have anything else here." Zhao Luoyang took out a few pieces of candy from his pocket and stuffed them into Lu Shi's hands. "Auntie still has to walk a long way, and Tiantianzui is also good on the road."

Lu's eyes rolled into a smile: "Okay, the girl from the Zhao family in Fengxia Village, right? I remember."

Lu received the maltose and walked forward, Zhao Luoyang stood in place and looked around, Zhao Xuejing kept staring at his niece and daughter, and didn't step forward when they saw their wives talking.

After a while, Zhao Xueli came back with a smile on his face: "They have broken bricks, so they don't want them. Let us take them away for 20 cents a car."
