063 If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world
At first Chu Yan was a little reluctant
After all, he was knocked down by Dian Wei just now, and when he woke up, he had to drive the carriage for Dian Wei.
Don’t I have any face?
However, Dian Wei only gave him some pointers on martial arts.
He immediately became Dian Wei’s little fanboy
He then discovered
It turns out that the gap between me and the top masters is like a chasm.
If Dian Wei really wanted to kill him
There is no need to fight him for so long.
Just one move
It will cut him in two.
After Dian Wei joined the team, Yun Yi took out his pickaxe and knocked down all the granite blocks that were used to stop him from running away.
Then everyone set out again
The rest of the journey was smooth, and there were no more robberies.
After all, it’s only about ten miles away.
Where are there so many robbers?
Not yet at Heng Fa Chuen
Everyone has seen the apricot trees all over the mountains.
The leaves are sparse and yellow, and they look like they are dying.
Chu Ji sighed and said:
“There have been years of drought. If there is no water, all the apricot trees will die.”
Originally, the apricot trees all over the mountains were an important source of income for the two major families in Xinghua Village.
Apricot blossoms can be used to make apricot blossom wine
Apricots can be eaten directly or used to make apricot wine.
But as the drought continues
This income is getting less and less
By this year, the Chu and Xiahou families no longer expected the apricot trees to bring them extra income.
I just hope the apricot tree won’t die.
However, they took a look at Yun Yi and instantly smiled with relief.
There are gods here
The days ahead should be getting better and better.
Walk to the village entrance
Many old and young women and children with pale faces stood at the entrance of the village.
They all raised their heads and looked into the distance.
Almost all the young and strong men from the Chu family and the Xiahou family went to Zhaojiazhuang.
They are curious about the outcome of the incident and are also worried about their husbands, fathers, and sons….
The moment I saw Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing
The crowd suddenly cheered.
The old and young women and children from both families came forward to greet them.
“Chief, did you get any water?”
However, Chu Ji shook his head
Only then did they notice that more than 600 people from the two families had gone out, but now only more than 20 people returned.
Could it be……
They don’t dare to think deeply.
“Patriarch, are they all……”
The bodies of the old and young, women and children, were trembling slightly, and tears were already welling up in their eyes.
Chu Ji found that they seemed to be wrong:
“What are you thinking? Can I, Chu Ji, leave my people behind and come back alone? They are all fine. Because of a small accident, they are all staying in Zhaojiazhuang to rest.”
“Moreover, Zhaojiazhuang did not block the Hutuo River.”
The elderly, young and old, women and children all breathed a sigh of relief
“Patriarch, you said that the Zhao family did not cut off the Hutuo River. What does that mean?”
Chu Ji immediately explained:
“At the beginning, we did find that the Zhao family had taken a large amount of water from the Hutuo River, enough to irrigate thousands of acres of fertile fields.”
“That’s why I thought they cut off the Hutuo River and diverted all the water from the Hutuo River into the ditch for their own use.”
“But we found that it was not the case.”
“The water of Hutuo River is still the same, and it has almost dried up.”
“The water used by the Zhao family was not taken from the Hutuo River, nor was it groundwater. Instead, it was taken from an infinite water source given by the gods.” immortal?
Unlimited water?
They were a little confused and didn’t react for a while.
“Grandpa Patriarch, have you been deceived?”
A child of about seven or eight in the crowd asked in a childish voice:
As soon as the words fell, the child’s mother pulled her child back to the team.
Then he apologized again and again
“Don’t blame the clan leader, children speak without restraint, children speak without restraint”
A deep black line suddenly appeared on Chu Ji’s forehead.
However, he quickly restored his authority as the patriarch and said in an unquestionable tone:
“I know this is hard to believe, but it’s true”
“And I invited the immortal back.”
“The gods will also give us unlimited water in Xinghua Village.”
“So, whether you believe it or not, please show your respect”
“Otherwise, regardless of status, they will be punished according to clan rules.”
As soon as the words fell
The Chu family, old and young, women and children, were all terrified and silent.
Xiahou Xing also stood up at this time:
“What Chief Chu Ji said is true, and my attitude is the same as his..”
“Everyone must respect the gods.”
“Punishment for violators”
The rest of the Xiahou family members also shut up.
I dare not even breathe
The clan power in the late Eastern Han Dynasty was different from that in later generations.
Very large
The clan rules can not only punish lynching, but even death in serious cases.
The key government cannot be held accountable
Because the country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules.
It’s just that everyone in the same clan is related by blood, and they can see each other easily.
So unless you make a serious mistake
Otherwise, it would be almost impossible to resort to clan lynching.
Therefore, when Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing talked about the clan rules and punishments, they immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.
But they didn’t have any dissatisfaction in their hearts
Instead, he poked his head out of curiosity to know what the gods looked like.
Everyone enters Xinghua Village
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing originally wanted to let Yun Yi take a break and show their hospitality.
However, Yun Yi refused
Looking at the harsh drought environment and the pale and thin people
How could he bear to enjoy it?
The drought in Xinghua Village is worse than that in Zhaojiazhuang
First of all, Xinghua Village is composed of two major families, the Chu family and the Xiahou family.
Own more acres of land
There are also apricot trees planted around
Naturally, more water is needed
Second, the position relationship
Xinghua Village is located further downstream of the Hutuo River than Zhaojiazhuang.
The Hutuo River is already a trickle when it flows to Zhaojiazhuang.
The dry soil in the middle absorbs water
Arrived at Xinghua Village
There are almost no shallow ponds on the Hutuo River bed.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is completely cut off. soon
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing joined forces with the existing people in the village
Found a suitable location
It happens to be right beside the Hutuo River, and is connected to canals that flow in all directions.
“My Lord, this is it.”
Yun Yi nodded, took out the bucket, and placed an infinite water block on the ground.
Infinite water blocks are like springs
Water began to flow out
“Water, there is really water”
“The patriarch really brought back the gods”
“Long live the gods!”
“Long live the gods!”
For a moment, there were endless shouts from behind Yun Yi.
Still the same problem
The infinite water block is limited by the MC rules and only extends seven meters outward before being blocked by the air wall.
This is also the reason why Yun Yi did not put a lot of infinite water blocks in the Hutuo River.
Because unless he can completely cover the entire Hutuo River with infinite water blocks
Otherwise, no matter how many infinite water blocks you put, they will only affect a small area.
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing excitedly ran to the infinite water cube
Take a handful of water and drink it down your throat
Cool and sweet
“Cool!”
From now on, our Xinghua Village will no longer suffer from water shortage!
However, seeing the strange”air wall” formed by the water gushing out of the infinite water source”
They also instantly understood the Zhao family’s intention to set up the waterwheel.
Although it is possible to carry water manually
But it is time-consuming and laborious
If a water truck is used, one person can do the work of dozens of people. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
At this time, Xiahou Xing walked up to Chu Ji and said:
“Patriarch Chu Ji, is there anyone in your Chu family who knows Mohist skills?”
Chu Ji immediately understood:
“Master Xiahou, do you also want to build a waterwheel?”
Xiahou Xing nodded:[]
“The efficiency of a waterwheel is faster than that of dozens of people. If we build more than a dozen waterwheels like Zhaojiazhuang, we only need dozens of people to draw enough water from the unlimited water source to irrigate the fields and apricot trees.”
Chu Ji also agreed very much, but he spread his hands helplessly:
“If it is a simple carpenter, we do have one in the Chu family, but the waterwheel requires a high level of skill, and we don’t have anyone who can build one.”
Xiahou Xing said:
“Looks like we still have to trouble the Zhao family.”
Chu Ji lowered his voice and said:
“Master Xiahou, isn’t this a good thing?”
Xiahou Xing was stunned:
“How can this be a good thing?”
To put it bluntly, Xiahou Xing is still thinking in the same way as his family in the past.
As long as you can solve the problem within your own family
Try not to seek help from outsiders
After all, outsiders help
Sometimes, not only money is needed, but also a favor.
Chu Ji shook his head:
“Master Xiahou, the Immortal Lord has been living in Zhaojiazhuang. Do you think we can pay a visit to the Immortal Lord every time we go to Zhaojiazhuang to seek help?”
“Although we can’t serve the gods, it’s good to be familiar with them.”
Hearing this, Xiahou Xing’s eyes lit up. yes!
Why didn’t I think of that?
“Patriarch Chu Ji, you are very thoughtful. It seems that we need to communicate more with the Zhao family in the future.”
The two looked at each other and smiled happily.
No water truck
Naturally, water can only be transported by manpower.
In order to restore the fields and almond orchards as quickly as possible
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing selected hundreds of people from among the old and young women and children in the clan.
Let them use buckets to carry water from the wireless water source into the ditch
Of course, this is just a stopgap measure
Waiting for the young and strong people of the two families���When they return to Xinghua Village, the people carrying water will be replaced by young and strong people.
Arrange water fetching
Chu Ji sent another man to bring a two-horse carriage.
But these two horses are not strong.
Looks a bit skinny
There is no way. In the years of famine, we can’t even guarantee enough food for people.
Not to mention a horse that can eat the same amount of food as ten people a day.
Therefore, the Chu family can raise horses, which makes them a very powerful family in the surrounding area.
Chu Ji bowed to Dian Wei:
“Brother Dianwei, I’m sorry, the conditions are limited.”
Dian Wei also responded with a folded hand:
“Chief Chu Ji, this is already very good. I, Dian Wei, am very grateful.”
Chu Ji nodded slightly, and then said to Chu Yan beside him:
“Yan’er, go back and get some more dry food, then set off directly with Brother Dianwei. Don’t waste time on the road.”
Chu Yan patted her chest and assured:
“Dad, don’t worry, I’m steady.”
I’m worried about what you do.
Chu Ji shook his head and looked at Dian Wei:
“Brother Dian Wei, please take good care of my son on the way.”
Dian Wei patted his chest:
“Chief Chu Ji, rest assured, I am here, no one can hurt your child.”
I thought about Dian Wei’s strength.
Chu Ji was immediately relieved
Afterwards, Chu Yan went back and got enough dry food for the two of them to eat for a month and put it in the carriage.
After saying goodbye to everyone
Driving a carriage, he set out south with Dian Wei.
After Dian Wei left
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing also became busy
As the head of the family, especially when the young and strong are not around
They must lead by example
The two of them, along with the young and strong men who had just returned, and some of the old, young, women and children, were at the edge of the infinite water source.
Use buckets to carry water into the ditch
Free from the restrictions of MC rules
The water flowed freely along the ditches and into the land in all directions.
Yun Yi took Zhao Yun, Zhao Yu and Zhao Yan for a walk in Xinghua Village.
Finally, we returned to the infinite water source.
Watching the thin bodies struggling to carry water into the ditch
Compared with the highly developed productivity society in later generations
The conditions of the people in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were too difficult.
If we encounter famine again and the court does nothing,
The phrase”displaced and dead” has never been just an idiom.
It is a true portrayal of an era
Yun Yi couldn’t help but sigh
“The rise and fall of the country, the people are suffering”
Zhao Yun said on the side:
“My Lord God, don’t blame yourself. At least after you came, everyone has rekindled their hope for life.” yes
Looking closely, the young and strong, old and young, women and children carrying water around the infinite water block
There is no more confusion in my eyes
But full of hope
Even though it was very hard, there was still a happy smile on his face.
It seems that we still need to continue to expand our influence
Maybe I can’t save all the sentient beings in the world.
But if you can save one, save one.
Yun Yi called Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing to his side.
Because I was just moving water
So their clothes were completely soaked with sweat
“Lord God, what do you want from us?”
Yun Yi nodded:
“The infinite water source has been placed for you. I plan to return to Zhaojiazhuang with Zhao Yun.”
“Before I go back, I do have three things to tell you guys.”
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing immediately showed respect:
“My Lord, please speak”
Yun Yi said:
“If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world. First, I hope that if you have excess water, you can drain some water into the Hutuo River.”
Although compared with the original huge flow of thousands of tons per second in the Hutuo River
The water discharged from Xinghua Village is just a drop in the bucket
But a little bit of accumulation makes a lot, and a pile of sand makes a tower
After all, more drainage can make the downstream better.
At the very least, it would be good if this water can save one or two more people.
At the same time, when he returns to Zhaojiazhuang, he will ask the Zhao family to do the same.
“Second, if there are refugees passing by your place, give them aid if you can, but if you can’t, try to guide them to Zhaojiazhuang.”
Of course, Yun Yi can’t rely on the Chu family and the Xiahou family to do charity.
You know, when statistics were taken in the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty, there were still tens of millions of people in China.
However, during the Three Kingdoms period
But a few decades of hard work
The population of China has dropped sharply to less than 10 million.
You can imagine how bad the famine situation is.
It’s not an exaggeration to say that there were corpses everywhere.
In this situation, even the top aristocratic families could not provide relief to so many refugees.
Not to mention that the Chu family and the Xiahou family are just ordinary families at the regional level.
So in the end he had to come by himself
Use the fast growth rate of MC crops to quickly produce large amounts of food
To help refugees
Chu Ji and Xiahou Xing nodded:
“No problem, Master Xian.”
Yun Yi nodded slightly and continued:
“The third and final point, what kinds of grain do you have here?”
Without modules, the types of crops in MC are limited
Many of these crops originated in America and were not introduced to China until the Ming and Qing dynasties.
So he had to first find out what crops in the late Eastern Han Dynasty could trigger MC rules.
