Chapter 45 0043【Rainy Night】

After a hard day's work, the villagers walked towards the village in twos and threes with hoes on their shoulders and axes in their hands.

The construction progress of the cottage was not bad, the foundation trench was dug in only one day, and the piles could be driven tomorrow.

When the foundation is done, the building on the ground will be completed soon.

Carpenter Huang estimated that it would be completely finished in about ten days.

The reason why it can be so fast is mainly due to the small size of the village and the advantage of the geographical location.

The location chosen by the village has towering rocks on both sides, saving a lot of effort.

When we returned to Xiaowang Village, the sun had already set.

None of the villagers went home, but followed Han Zhen and came to the house together.

Who is going home?
There is also a meal in the evening.

After a while, Ma Sangou and others came out carrying the wooden barrel, and as the lid was lifted, the fragrance of wheat rice permeated with bursts of heat.

"It's time to eat!"

Whoa!
The villagers immediately formed a long line and went forward one by one to receive the meal.

In the hall of the Second Hospital, Han Zhen and his group were also having dinner.

Seeing Mrs. Shen carrying another bucket of wheat and rice out, Fang Sansan couldn't help reminding: "Ah Lang, the food in our warehouse won't last long if this goes on."

These villagers can eat so much that they wish they could eat all of tomorrow's meal together.

Now the tenants are in charge of the food, the cottage is in charge of the food, and the lime kiln is also in charge of the food. Han Zhen has started conscription again, and three dry meals a day will be a big expense.

According to this way of eating, the more than 200 shi grains in the warehouse will be eaten up in a few months.

"I have it in my mind."

Han Zhen smiled slightly and didn't care.

The summer grain is about to be harvested. Although Xiaowang Village is tax-free this year, he still has more than 200 mu of land in his hands.

These are all high-quality fertile fields in his hands, of which more than [-] mu are paddy fields, with a high grain yield. Under the intensive cultivation of the tenants, it is roughly estimated that at least three to four hundred shi of grain can be harvested.

Taking a [-]-step back, if it’s really not possible, you can still buy food.

As soon as the lime kiln is fired, when the sugar and coarse salt are delivered, they will immediately earn thousands of guan.

In his cognition, Xiaowang Village is the property he bought.

How to develop and grow without investment in the early stage?

After dinner, Han Zhen left the house with a bag of copper coins.

"Wages are paid!"

At this moment, the villagers had finished their meal and were about to go home. When they heard the money was distributed, they immediately buzzed around.

Some of the villagers who ate fast had gone far away, and then ran back and turned back, completely ignoring whether their stomachs could not bear it.

Han Zhen held the list in one hand and the money bag in the other, and when he read a person, he gave a salary.

The number 80 villagers seem to be quite a lot, but in fact they don't have much wages.

20 Wen for men and 10 Wen for women, a total of just a little more.

To be honest, wages are not as much as what they eat.

It doesn't matter how full the work is, it sounds like Han Zhen is being taken advantage of.

But there is a saying that it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

After this group of farmers experienced the feeling of being full, if someone wants them to go back to the bitter life of starvation, they have to ask the Pu Daotong in their hands whether they agree.

After receiving their wages, the villagers went back with smiles on their faces.

……

That night.

In the backyard study, Han Zhen sat at the desk, planning the construction of the barracks.

Many villagers did not understand why he wanted to conscript, and even Ma Sangou and others expressed doubts.

Because now Changzhi County is doing business with them in partnership, with this relationship, at least during Changzhi County's tenure, it is impossible to send officers and soldiers to encircle them.

Why conscription when there is no external threat?

In fact, he is planning ahead and preparing for the future.

The soldiers in Xiaowang Village were trained as the backbone.

If there are changes in the future, these soldiers can serve as grassroots officers and quickly pull up a capable army.

Otherwise, when the critical moment came, the impromptu team would be just a mob.

Write and draw, delete, delete, and modify, and the moon is in the sky without knowing it.

"Erro."

After an unknown amount of time, An Niang's voice sounded outside the door.

Han Zhen raised his head and said, "Come in."

creak!

The door was pushed open, and An Niang stepped in.

Seeing that the desk was covered with paper for writing and drawing, she said with concern: "Erlang, don't work too hard."

"Why didn't you sleep?" Han Zhen stretched.

An Niang twisted the waist of the water snake, came to the desk, and thoughtfully helped him refill the teacup, and said softly: "Erlang is busy and dizzy? It's past the third watch, and I have already slept."

Hearing this, Han Zhen was slightly taken aback: "It's so late?"

"Erlang, let's take a rest earlier, it's not worth it if he burns out."

An Niang stepped up behind him, kneading his shoulders with a pair of small hands.

Her palm is slightly rough, which is the mark left by working, but it is also because of this that the small hand is full of strength and it is very comfortable to pinch.

After enjoying it with her eyes closed for a while, Han Zhen gently grabbed her little hand.

After slapping his big hand off, An Niang scolded: "What are you doing with your hands and feet, go to sleep quickly when it is late at night, the slave will go back first."

As she spoke, she walked towards the outside of the study.

Just after taking two steps, I felt my body lighten up, followed by a whirl of heaven and earth.

When she recovered, she was already sitting in Han Zhen's arms.

hiss!
Han Zhen couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air.

An Niang patted the arm around her waist, and persuaded earnestly: "Erlang, don't make trouble, you've been busy all night, don't use your energy, just take a good rest."

……

Her moist peach eyes glared at Han Zhen, and she said in a hoarse voice, "You damn ghost, don't you want to add a younger brother to Xiaodouzi?"

"What's wrong, I happen to be a companion for Xiaodouzi."

Han Zhen smiled slightly, picked up the cold tea on the table and drank it down.

"Okay, you should go to bed early, and this slave will go back too." After An Niang said, she walked out of the study with slow steps.

Seeing her back disappearing outside the door, Han Zhen packed up the desk and walked to the inside.

……

……

The next day.

It was a cold day, and Han Zhen got up.

When I came to the well, I took a handful of cool well water and poured it on my face, I just felt refreshed.

Last night I was busy until the third watch, and I did some activities again. I only slept for more than an hour, and I am still in high spirits at this moment.

I have to say that the body after time travel is really strong and a bit outrageous.

And after this period of recuperation, he faintly felt that his strength seemed to be a little stronger.

If he encounters the previous wild boar weighing more than 500 kilograms, Han Zhen is confident that he will kill it with his bare hands.
