Chapter 198 Construction of Step Mountain Village

He returned to his home in Tashan Village safe and sound, and before he parked the car, Lao Zhangtou brought Lao Yantou, Uncle Qin brought Qin Hanbin, and Uncle Guo all came.

Father Jiang invited everyone to come in and sit down. Mother Jiang and Mother Qu asked everyone to have lunch together. After I jumped down, I didn’t enter the room because I brought back the hacker’s family of seven when I came back today. Only the nest will do.

Han Han and An An looked at the dogs I brought back, their eyes were not enough, they kept walking around the puppies, and wanted to touch them, so they appeared in the yard for a while, and the puppies circled around me, The scene where Han Han and An An circle around the puppy.

Then it was Qu's mother who came out and scolded me, telling me to take the dogs to the backyard first, and she would put some food for the dogs, and after everyone finished their lunch, they would build a new home for them and wash them. A bath is required to keep the children close.

We were scolded by Qu's mother, so we hurriedly followed Lafayette's order. After arranging them, I took the three children's hands and went back to the restaurant. I was on a hurry this morning, and my stomach was really a little bit hungry.

When they arrived at the restaurant, they had already started discussing while eating, as if they were discussing where to burn bricks, how to transport machinery, and which machinery to transport.

I don't care too much about eating and listening while eating. I heard that if possible, it is more convenient to burn bricks in front of my own house.I nodded in agreement.

Old Yantou heard Chen Ming's description of the machinery in the brick factory, and said that these machinery should be able to be transported, but there is no car now, so he is not so lucky.

Jiang Zhi thought for a while and asked him if those machines could be pulled back by the tractors in the village. After getting an affirmative answer, he said that he would drive two tractors in the village to the brick factory to pull the machines back in the morning.

I rolled my eyes when I heard this, the diesel that the tractor burns back and forth has to be paid for by our family again, Jiang Zhi is really unlucky to be the village head.

The village head is more or less a petty official. In the prosperous age, it was also a fat and fat vacancy. One side of the bully is doing well now. The end of the world is here. Don't say anything about the benefits. What a loss.

No matter what I thought, the people who went to the brick factory set off the next day. A total of more than ten young men went there. When they went, they were all sitting on the chassis of the tractor, and there were more than ten bicycles in the chassis. , there is no place for them on the tractor when they come back, so these bicycles are the means of transportation they will use when they come back.

I didn’t follow this time, it’s really meaningless, I’ve been there once, and I’ve seen everything I need to see. Now the scenery outside is not as good as Tashan Village. There are scattered big trees that have been cut down everywhere, or The tree stumps are the only ones left. How can the scenery of Tashan Village be as beautiful as the green mountains and clear waters?

Besides, I have to take the hacker family to identify the door these two days. After all, I will settle down in Tashan Village in the future. The most important thing is to let those greedy people know that the hacker family belongs to the village head. They are not wild dogs. Just eat.

It wasn't until the next afternoon that Jiang Zhicai came back with someone pulling the machinery. Old Yantou drew a piece of land in the north of the village as the site of the brick factory in the future, and then everyone started to get busy.

Our family temporarily donated the large solar generator at home. There is no way, the machine that makes bricks is powered by electricity, and now only our large solar generator supplies power.

After a while, it entered the era of large-scale construction of Tashan Village.More than half of the people in the village have gone to build walls and dig water storage ditches. Lu Fang gave technical guidance to the village while the construction team was digging ice cellars for the villages, making the walls stronger and the bottom of the water storage tanks leak-proof. The water storage capacity is larger.

The elderly in the family are responsible for the work in the field. Fortunately, it is not too hot now, and there is no need to cover the rice with sunscreen every day. They go to the field every morning and evening to weed, fertilize and so on. The elderly can do it.

Before the drought came in July, the water storage ditch in the village was dug, and the underground of the water storage ditch was built with building materials such as bricks and cement to ensure that there would be no water seepage. Jiang Zhi asked people to take advantage of the lack of water. , Use the water pump to fill the ditch with water from the small river, and then cover it with stone slabs to prevent children from falling when they run around and play.

The construction of the fence has also begun, but just after a small section has been built, it is already mid-July, and the hottest daytime has reached more than 7 degrees above zero, and the sun is also extremely hot.

Everyone wears long clothes and trousers when they work. This is what Jiang Zhi asked everyone to fear that everyone would be sunburned by the sun and be bitten by mosquitoes. But one day, a young man passed out from heat stroke while working. , Jiang Zhi decided that every day after everyone covered the sunshade net in their own sky, they would come to the construction site to do 2 hours of work, and then go home to rest and escape the heat. At 4 pm, they would go to the construction site to do 2 hours hours, and then went to the fields to collect the shade nets.When I was working in the middle, I asked Jiang Ma and Qu Ma to cook some sour plum soup to relieve the heat at home, add some ice cubes, and send it to the workers. I also secretly added some mosquito repellent juice to the sour plum soup, hoping that the juice would enter After the human body, it can emit odor from the body, making mosquitoes stay away.

I don’t know if it’s because of the mosquito repellent. None of these people who worked outside this summer were infected with virus A. Qin Hanbin also joked that it was all because of wearing long clothes to work, sweating every day, and there was no water when they went home. Taking a bath, the smell of sweat is superimposed during this time, and the mosquitoes are smoked away.

Yes, this summer is still very hot, even hotter than last year, but Jiang Zhi became the village head this year, and he has taken a lot of preventive measures before. There are also many houses in Tashan Village that were frozen last winter. Wake up, so although this year is hotter and more water-scarce, the villagers are not as flustered as last year. Although the field is short of water, this year there is water in the storage ditch, and the rice grows better than last year.

Of course, there are a few special ones, namely Lao Litou and Li Sanye.They do not support the construction of walls and water storage ditches in the village. When everyone is working outside in full swing and sweating profusely, they lie leisurely at home and eat pine nuts on the kang, living a life like eating pigs, sleeping and eating. When the ground was short of water, they also wanted to follow the big flow to water the field in the storage ditch, but they were driven away by everyone. They didn’t come out when they had no reason to contribute. Now when it’s time to enjoy the success of their labor, they They were shy to take advantage, everyone's eyes were sharp, and Jiang Zhi didn't need to go out, they were chased away by everyone.

They are wicked people with smoke, they don't have enough troubles on their own, they know that our old people are soft-hearted, so they come to our house to cry, dragging Jiang's father and Qu's father to complain, saying that farming is not easy with snot and tears Well, as a farmer, how could he just watch the grain in the field sweat to death? He had to pull this Jiang Dad, Qu Dad, and let them decide for them.

Father Jiang and Father Qu are really in a dilemma. Although they despise Lao Li and his family's behavior, what they said is not wrong. They have been farmers and sweated, and they can understand the meaning of hard work. I can't bear it. Just watch helplessly as the rice to be harvested dies in the ground and there is no harvest.But he didn't want to embarrass the children, but Jiang Zhi said that they don't care about their affairs.This is really a dilemma.

I saw that the old people in the family also got angry with those people, so Jiang Zhi made a big deal out of it.

"Old Jiang, you have to hold on, even if they cry to death, you can't talk to them, or if others follow suit, then you don't care about this village in the future, and no one will support you if anything happens in the future You." I saw Jiang Zhi's face turned cloudy these days and said.

"I know." Jiang Zhi replied, he knew he couldn't agree to this matter, but seeing his father and father-in-law worrying so much about this matter recently, he was also very angry.

"However, people are not things, and the land is still good. We can't just let the dozens of mu of rice dry up for nothing just because of these few rat droppings." Jiang Zhi laughed when I said something. up.

"Okay, what's the foreign style with your husband, tell me if you can." Jiang Zhi stretched out his hand and hugged me, who confessed dishonesty, and sat on his lap.

I feel a little embarrassed to be hugged by him like this. You must know that this is a living room, which belongs to a public place, and people will see it if you are not careful. Then I don’t want to have this old face. I’m still in my 30s .

I quickly pushed Jiang Zhi to sit on the sofa.

But Jiang Zhi disagreed, and hugged me tightly with his iron arms. Look at it, if I don't tell the truth, he will keep hugging me like this.

I'm not as thick-skinned as him, so I had to obediently tell my own way.

"Don't they want to use the water in the storage ditch? If they want to pick up ready-made ones, let them pick them up, but there are conditions. 1% of their rice should be returned to the village, and they can go to storage like other villagers. There is [-]% of the water left in the ditch, and we hire people to take care of the rest, and we can harvest it in about a month without any trouble."

Jiang Zhi thought for a moment after hearing this, and asked: "Can they agree? After working hard for 3 months, they will definitely not agree to the harvest."

"Ha, it's a question of choice. If they are not willing to give up [-]% of the harvest, they may have no harvest. If they are really stupid like that, they will refuse to refuse, and they will find a way to irrigate the ground by themselves. Don't come to beg us, and don't come to worry about the water in the storage ditch, there is not much water in the first place, and I don't want to share it with them." I said proudly.

In fact, although the water storage ditch has stored some water, it is still a drop in the bucket to ensure that all the paddy fields in the village use water. Therefore, when we were dry this year, we still adopted the drip irrigation method of last year, and in about 10 days, the paddy fields will be full. To water intermittently.

But now that there is a water storage ditch, there is enough water for drip irrigation, so the rice grows better than last year, and the harvested rice ears are also more than last year. Now it seems that the harvest should be better than last year.

The paddy field of Lao Litou's family is suffering from severe drought, and the well at home has bottomed out, and cannot support the irrigation for the last period, so he came to ask Jiang Zhi to use the water in the storage ditch to ensure the harvest.

"Okay, this matter can't make them do whatever they want, just do whatever they want, give [-]% of the land, and if they take care of the remaining [-]%, it will be enough for a year."

Jiang Zhi also thought what I said was right, agreed with my approach, and finally gave me a kiss as a reward, but by coincidence, Han Han and An An saw it, and before I had time to grab them, they were at home. Neck shouted: "Ah, Mom and Dad are playing and kissing."

Looking at the happily shouting children and Jiang Zhi who was still sitting on the sofa and grinning, I was completely speechless.
