Great changes in the countryside

Chapter 48

The shape of the entire Sanchakou is like a wine jar, with two small ends and a large middle, covering an area of ​​more than [-] mu.

But not all water surfaces can dig sediment.

According to the elders, the riverbed at Sanchakou is deep on both sides and shallow in the middle.

The average depth on both sides is more than 30 meters. Even if there is sand on the bottom of the river, it is difficult to dig it up manually.

The middle of the river bed is like a huge pot-shaped lid, the shallowest part in the middle is less than six meters, and the average water depth is about eight meters.

Chen Yang readily told everyone what he knew.

The most important thing is that he reminded and warned everyone that when dredging sand at Sanchakou, you can't go to both sides, you can only get it in the middle.

This is also what the elders said, saying that there are eddies in the water on both sides, especially dark eddies.If a person falls into the water and is swept away by the vortex, his life will surely die.

Everyone is a novice, and they all listen to Chen Yang.

After Chen Yang finished speaking, everyone punted and dispersed, and started to do their own things.

However, five boats simply can't do it.

Their bamboo poles are not long enough.The water depth is at least six meters, and their bamboo poles are only five or six meters long.

The five boats left in a panic.

There were also three boats. After working for a while, they didn't even dig up a spoonful of sand, so they had to run away in despair.

In the end, apart from Chen Yang, there were only six boats left on the huge river.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Chen Yang had already dug four boats. After Tong Erzi and his second younger brother shook the boat away, he propped the empty boat away from its original position and found a new place to continue.

Looking at a few more, they are still tenacious. Although they are all beginners, they have gained a lot.

They all only had one boat, so they used Chen Yang's original method to wash the sand on the boat on the spot.

It seems that they can return home with a full load in one morning.

Chen Renjun and Chen Fuming were the fastest, the boat was already full, they greeted Chen Yang, and they returned with the boat.

Tong Xiaoping and Cai Chaoyang didn't work too slowly, their boat was one size bigger and almost full.

Tong Xiaoping is a tall man with a lot of hard work and strength.Cai Chaoyang is ingenious and skilled at washing sand.

Chen Yang believes that they are the best combination.

What was worse was the trio of Tong Xiaolong, Chen Xiaomu and Cai Guoping.

There was Cai Guoping around, and Chen Yang was upset, so he hardly paid attention to this trio in the morning.

Hmph, this money is not so easy to earn.

Tong Xiaolong is a bit brute force and not very flexible in his mind.

Chen Xiaomu was not too bad, he was simply the second Tong Xiaolong.

Cai Guoping has never even done farm work, has no strength or ability, and is just a guy who sits and watches theaters.

Chen Yang could imagine that with just these three goods, a whole boat in one morning would not be enough.

Chen Yang didn't go home at noon, he was on the boat.

The second brother brought lunch.

A big bowl of rice, two cornbreads, a bowl of green vegetables, half a bowl of bacon pork, and a bottle of homemade rice wine.

Chen Yang didn't drink alcohol at first, but his grandfather said that when people are tired, drinking some wine can relieve fatigue.

Chen Yang ate rice and vegetables, drank half a bottle of rice wine, and saved the rest for the afternoon.

He doesn't drink often, half a bottle down, Chen Yang is a little bit over the top.

Looking at the huge Sanchakou, everyone has gone home, only Chen Yang is left alone.

Chen Yang squatted on the fixed footboard of the tail cabin, squinting his eyes and taking a nap.

Life is hard.

In fact, Chen Yang was extremely tired, but he couldn't speak, and he couldn't stop.

Money is a good thing.With money, the whole family can live a good life.

The reason is as simple as that.

The sun was shining brightly, making people fall asleep, and Chen Yang fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took.

Someone is shouting.

"Help me."

"Come on, someone has fallen into the vortex."

Chen Yang was startled awake.

Tong Erzi and his second brother were in another boat, sleeping too, and were also woken up by the shouting.

"Help, Chen Xiaomu has fallen into the whirlpool."
