Dressed as a family of cannon fodder, the villain brother is busy opening up wasteland
Chapter 173 A spring comes out of the mountain
The happiest thing in the village during this period, apart from the fact that every household has fertilized their fields in anticipation of a bumper harvest this year, is that the Wen family has begun recruiting workers again.
Compared with the previous two times, the people who signed up for the Wen family's recruitment this time specifically said that after all, everyone now knows that the Wen family's work is easy to do and the pay is not bad. The most important thing is that they are responsible for food. Even if it is just one meal, it is a real deal. There is always a bit of fishy meat in a big pot of rice.
But this time the Wen family did not have enough people to clean up the barren hills. In the end, they only selected twenty people, most of whom had helped build houses and dig ponds before.
Old Man Wen gave the land to Mr. Wen to look after, and he was responsible for keeping an eye on the barren hills to clear up wasteland.
The reclamation of wasteland in this barren mountain is not comparable to that of the land. Although this mountain is not a big mountain, it is not short either. The mountain is overgrown with weeds and the trees are messy. Not only do we have to clear the weeds, we also have to cut down the trees, and some flat places have to be cleared into land.
Apart from spending the first two days in the study planning the barren mountain, Wen Xiuyi was dragged along by old man Wen to work on the mountain. None of the three Wen brothers ran away.
After a few days, Wen Xiuyi felt that his old arms and legs were about to break, but seeing that everyone else was working enthusiastically, he did not dare to be too lazy. After all, if he was lazy, he would be slapped on the soles of Old Man Wen's shoes.
"Wen Xiucai, here to help again."
On this day, Wen Xiuyi went up the mountain carrying a hoe as usual, with the plaster bought by Wen Yao still attached to his shoulder.
As soon as he reached the mountain, someone greeted him.
Looking at the way he was dressed and the calluses on his hands, Wen Xiuyi, a talented scholar, even doubted whether he was being called.
"Ah, yes." Can you not come?The old man is watching not far away.
Looking at the several large rocks buried in the soil in front of them, their task today was to level this one and see if they could be removed.
Wen Xiuyi sighed deeply and began to wave the hoe in his hand resignedly.
After clearing all the weeds in this area, the rest of the work will be easy. Everyone can take care of Wen Xiuyi. After all, we are the boss, so we allocate the area with the least weeds on the big stone to Wen Xiuyi.
It was nothing at first, but when he finished this area and was about to go around to the other side of the rock to continue, one of his feet didn't pay attention, and he stumbled over a raised rock and fell into a dog's mouth.
"Ouch, Wen Xiucai." The people working around him exclaimed and hurried over to see if he was okay.
Not far away, Old Man Wen saw a crowd here and hurried over. Just when he was about to scold someone for being lazy, he saw his eldest son sitting on the ground with mud all over his body and a bump on his head. A big bag.
"What's going on?" Old Man Wen was extremely nervous. After all, the boss's brain is very good now, so don't let it get damaged.
"Why is this such a big bag? Come on, come on, don't do it yet, hurry up and take a look." Old Man Wen stretched out his hand to help Wen Xiuyi.
Wen Xiuyi sat on the ground and didn't move. His head was buzzing. It took him a long time to recover. When he touched it, it was a big bag.
He shook his head: "Dad, I'm fine, just sit down and take it easy."
Looking at the tip of the stone that was only about ten centimeters protruding, Wen Xiuyi felt so angry that it hurt him to death.
Old Man Wen was relieved when he saw that he spoke normally, but he was still a little worried.
"You go home first." Old Man Wen said.
Wen Xiuyi rubbed his head. He really wanted to go home and lie down, but he glanced at the stone standing there alone and worried that someone else would trip over it later.
Wen Xiuyi said: "Don't be busy, Dad, let's chip away at this rock first, and we won't let anyone else trip it later."
Old Man Wen looked at the culprit and nodded: "Let's get rid of this first. Are you really okay?"
"I'm fine, dad. I'm just a little dizzy. Just take a rest." Wen Xiuyi said and touched his head to make sure he didn't get a concussion. Fortunately, he fell to the ground. If you hit a small rock, if you throw it towards a big rock, your brain will be ruined.
Old Man Wen gave the order, and immediately someone came over with a hoe and began to pull around the stone, checking to see if the stone was big. If it was not big, they would break it into pieces and take it away. If after digging half a meter down, there were still stones, then Maybe this stone is connected to the mountain, and the top can only be chiseled out so as not to affect walking.
Fortunately, after digging less than half a meter, we could see the bottom of the stone.
Everyone found tools and started prying.
Just listening to the rhythmic hey hey hey, the stones slowly loosened.
"Be careful, don't roll down the mountain and hit someone." Old Man Wen observed for a while and left the rolling path of the stone.
Since the stone is movable, it is easy to handle. In order to prevent the stone from rolling down the mountain and hitting people, it has to be chipped on the mountain.
There was another bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang dang, and the stone was broken into countless pieces. It was slowly moved away, and then the soil just dug out was filled back.
"Eh? Look." Suddenly, the person who was preparing to fill the soil shouted.
Everyone gathered around and saw that the soil in the large pit that had just been covered with stones was slowly getting wet.
When Old Man Wen saw this battle, he didn't understand anything.
"Keep digging."
As more and more soil was excavated, it became more and more humid, and water could be seen.
Finally, when we dug close to the big rocks, more and more water was collected, and we could store it in the pit.
"This is a mountain spring dug." Someone was surprised.
Old Man Wen also looked surprised. After living here for so many years, he had never heard of a mountain spring on the barren mountain behind the mountain. Occasionally during the rainy season, there would be a few streams flowing down the mountain, but once the rainy season was over, Gone again.
For so many years, no one thought that there would be a spring on this mountain.
Old Man Wen was a little excited. With mountain springs, could this mountain still be a barren mountain?With water, the mountain comes alive.
After just being in a daze for a while, a lot of water filled the pit.
"I'm afraid that the stone happened to be pressing on the spring. If we remove the stone, the spring will be loose and the water will come out." Someone said.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Wen Xiuyi. This man fell and fell out of the spring.
This is life.
If this spring had been dug earlier, this mountain would no longer be considered a barren mountain.
Not long after, the news about Old Man Wen and the others digging out rocks and finding springs spread all over the mountain, and everyone came curiously to see the spring that suddenly appeared.
Water had been stored in the pit, and it was cool and refreshing. Someone took a sip out of curiosity. It was sweet and ice-cold in the mouth. A sip in such weather was really refreshing.
It's strange to say that as long as the pit is full, the water will stop flowing out. Then the water will be scooped out and it will continue to flow out again until the pit is full and then stop.
People were amazed. Even the great professor Wen Xiuyi could not explain this phenomenon. After all, he was a farmer, not a geologist.
