Chapter 225 Contracted an entire reservoir
Repairing canals is a matter for the whole village and affects every household. The three brothers of the Ning family also went there. Although the Ning family did not live on those acres of land, they were willing to help with this kind of thing. .

Ning Er looked at the small breast dumplings that came back happily, and then looked at the sky. He still didn't understand what was going on, but he felt that it must have something to do with his sister.

"Sister, can you really talk to Lord Dragon?" Ning Erwang smiled and had his own little idea, "Then can you ask him to get me more big fish and shrimps to eat."

Ning Yize almost rolled his eyes, this younger brother knew how to eat.

Ruan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Looking at your potential, if you really have such a good opportunity, you have to order something to eat, but that's fine, don't worry."

"Well, you're right. It's a good thing not to be greedy. People, being greedy can easily lead to disaster."

Even though Ning Yi looked at his sons and grandsons in a dignified manner most of the time, he knew that each of his two grandsons had their own strengths. Their five fingers were different in length. Naturally, people were not exactly the same.

Ning Erwang chuckled, "Sister, can you do it?"

"Second brother, do you want to eat fish or shrimp?"

"Well, I'm a little greedy."

"This is simple. You don't need the Dragon King. Grandpa, let's buy a pond and raise it ourselves."

Ruan shook her head, "Ask, don't listen to your second brother and buy a pond just to raise fish for him to eat, and spoil him rotten."

Ning Wenwen said sheepishly: "Auntie, I want to eat it too."

Ruan immediately put on a smile and said, "I want to eat it too, so go ahead and buy it. Dad, what do you think?"

Ning Erwang noticed that his mother was kind to his sister, but he was not jealous. He also knew in his heart that his sister was at home and wanted everyone to love her.

"Okay, I'll ask later."

Ning Erwang was very excited, but he still couldn't resist the doubts in his heart and asked: "Sister, you haven't told me yet, did you make the rain stop?"

"It's not me, it's that the rain was supposed to stop at this time. Everyone shouldn't be so anxious. It would be fine if we just wait a little longer."

Ning Wenwen chuckled, and Ruan also curled up her lips. Xiaonuituanzi told her when he whispered to her, so she firmly agreed to Zhang Yuzhi's words.

"Then do you have that ability?" Ning Erwang asked persistently.

Ning Wenwen smiled and nodded, "Yes."

is really there.

You can also pray for rain!
With everyone's efforts, the drainage canal was repaired the next day. After all, there were so many people and the whole village worked together.The water accumulated in the ground was also drained out, so the crops were saved.

The guys were also very tired, and they took all the time to work. At this moment, they didn't care about the moisture on the ground, the sun was shining on their heads, and they were all covered in mud, but they were smiling happily.

Although Liang Zhengqing was physically tired, he was full of energy. Looking at the repaired drainage channel and the reservoir according to the drawing, he was extremely satisfied.

With these two things, the harvest can be guaranteed regardless of drought or flood, but at least the harvest can be a few percent, so that everyone will not be left with nothing.

Moreover, this reservoir can be used to raise fish at ordinary times, and it is not too late to release water when really needed.

This is what Ning Yi said when he told him about buying a pond in the village. He thought it made sense.

And the rent money can be distributed to the big guys, which is a good thing.

"Everyone was resting and listening to me. The pond at the head of the village has been abandoned for many years, and no one has used it. Yesterday, Uncle Ning asked me to buy it for ten taels of silver. I'll ask everyone for their opinions. If you are willing, , then we will divide the money from house to house, if you are not willing... no one is unwilling, right?"

An idle pond is far away from the fields. In ancient times, there were no water pumps. It was too far and even digging canals was impractical. "No objection, whatever you want to buy, this time it's Uncle Ning's idea for us. If you ask me, it's free."

Tao Dajiang has always thought about the good things of the Ning family.

The other women in the family who worked with the Ruan family also expressed their support, and naturally they supported it.

People who are not doing any work feel that it is a good thing, not to mention that they can share some money. Their village is not big, with more than 50 households, and each family can share some money.

Chen Daquan wanted to object, but after looking around, he didn't dare to stand up, so he whispered softly, "Their family spent so much money to buy a useless pond. There must be some way to make money. Why?" Give it to him?"

"Then there's a newly dug pond for you. It's cheaper."

Liang Zhengqing was rude and said, "Aren't I asking everyone? If someone is willing to buy it, that's not a problem. Uncle Ning said that the newly dug pond can also be rented to everyone. When there is a drought and the land needs to be irrigated, we can , who wants it?"

He looked at Chen Daquan, how could Chen Daquan dare to ask for it? No matter how cheap it was, what would he use to rent it?
See?

Liang Zhengqing is thoughtful, but he has to please others first. If no one really wants it, then he will say that if someone wants it, he can't snatch it from others.

Chen Songxiang kicked the man, and Tao Jiang winked and was reluctant to part with his wife's hard-earned money.

Chen Songxiang gritted her teeth. Originally, it was the man who had to talk about this matter, but she was afraid that others would take the lead and the man would not follow suit, so she stood up directly.

"Village Chief, if no one is willing to rent it, rent it from our house. In terms of money... it will be cheaper, right?"

"Five hundred coins a year, you can do whatever you want and manage it yourself. The money is shared among everyone."

"Okay." Chen Songxiang glared at the man who was tugging at his trouser leg. "It's settled. We'll ask Yize to write a note for us later. We have to press our fingerprints. If we press our fingerprints, we won't be afraid of going back on our word."

Although Chen Songxiang is illiterate, following the Ruan family has not been in vain and she has gained some ideas.

Liang Zhengqing nodded, "That's it."

After everyone dispersed, Tao Dajiang was not very happy and complained that his wife should not spend the money carelessly. He had no other meaning, but he didn't know what to do with the pond that was full of water.

"It was all done by you stitch by stitch, and you just spent it like this, don't you feel bad?"

Chen Songxiang straightened her back. Not to mention, this woman was really different after making money. If she didn't make money, how could she dare to take the initiative?

But the money she earns, she can have the final say.

"I don't feel bad."

"It's five hundred yuan. If you save a little, it will be enough for us to spend half a year. Da Kuan is not small. Don't you all save the money for the betrothal gift? And our daughter..."

Tao Dajiang sighed, "I don't know if I can regret it. Oh, the village chief should allow it, right? After all, we didn't sign the contract."

"I will not go back on my word." Chen Songxiang said firmly, "Neither can you."

"But, what are you renting the pond for?"

Chen Songxiang spread her hands, "I don't know."

When Tao Dajiang was about to ramble, she said: "Anyway, I will do whatever Uncle Ning does. Their family members are all smart, so we can't go wrong if we follow them."

"Hiss..." Tao Dajiang was actually moved.
