Traveling through time with billions of supplies to become a farmer's little fortune

The old village chief's eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, theirs was not the only village that was short of water.

"I'll go talk about this."

The village chief's youngest son was still standing there in a daze. What did his father want to say?

Fortunately, he was not stupid enough to ask directly, otherwise his father would definitely be disgusted.

The old village chief led this group of people and started measuring on the way back.

"If several villages were put together, assuming one person could dig several feet per hour.

Well, if we take the labor force of at least 300 to 400 people from all the nearby villages together, it might only take one to two days."

After measuring the distance, the old village chief took his three sons and went back home. When he arrived home, he took a pen and paper, wrote down his plan, and then went to find the head of the town.

If I go from village to village to talk, the possibility is not very high, but if the village head agrees with me, it can be implemented quickly.

"Grandpa, the water source is at the bottom of the valley. Just dig a ditch from the bottom of the valley, go around the west and go all the way down. The sun is not shining directly on the land here, and it is not that hard. It is much easier to do."

"Okay, Grandpa will tell the village chief."

Su Muyao was having fun at home and didn't worry about adults' affairs at all.

After the old village chief finished talking to the head of the village, the head of the village nodded frequently. Once he had a general idea, he began to think about the affairs of other villages.

After all, the head of the village is not just Taoliu Village and a few nearby villages, he also has to take care of other villages.

Su Muyao caught a big rooster from the space. The reason was very simple. The big rooster had slipped out of the fence in the space at some point in time.

The young vegetable seedlings in the vegetable field were trampled down. As soon as the big rooster was put on the ground, he heard a "cluck, cluck" sound and ran wildly in the yard.

The big rooster flapped its wings and pounced towards Old Man Su who had just walked in. Old Man Su was just thinking that the matter was almost resolved and he went home to have a rest. As soon as he opened the door, he was suddenly startled by something that pounced towards him.

After seeing clearly that it was a chicken, he quickly pounced on it and said, "This chicken is so fat."

Although Old Man Su is old, he is still very good at catching chickens. He grabbed the rooster by the wings.

"Grandpa, my dear baby, I'll kill a chicken for you today, haha."

A group of kids who were playing outside just happened to come back. They were very happy to see their grandfather holding a huge chicken.

What Su Muyao was thinking about was whether to stew such a big chicken or braise it?

Old Man Su also knew that this chicken must have been obtained by his little girl from somewhere, or it might have been given to him by his magical master.

After lunch, the old village chief began to gather people in the open space at the entrance of the village.

The afternoon sun was very strong, and Su Muyao was held by her father under a big locust tree to enjoy the coolness.

The village chief and the head of the village head broke through the crowd and came to the front, and quickly got into the topic of today.

"This morning, Xiao Fuxing discovered a water source on the mountain. We went over to see that the water source was abundant, so we plan to bring the water down the mountain."

All the villagers became excited, but suppressed their excitement and waited for the old village chief to continue speaking.

"Little Lucky Star has saved us all more than once, so I hope everyone can have a little common sense and not be ungrateful."

The people below were whispering, "This old village chief is so long-winded. How could we not know about this? He has mentioned it so many times."

"Fen Niang, please speak a little more quietly. The old village chief is right. This little lucky star has saved us time and time again, and he doesn't want anything from us. In the future, try to give him all the good things."

"Yes, they think of us with everything they have. If it weren't for little Fuxing who discovered this water source, we might all have to flee the famine. The journey is filled with countless difficulties. Basically, it's considered good if half of the villagers can survive."

Fen Niang quickly interrupted the two sisters beside her and said, "Of course I know. Don't you think the old village chief is too long-winded? He said the same thing last time."

"Okay, okay, keep your voice down and continue listening."

The village head came forward and said, "I went up to check out the source of this water. There is a water source on the mountain. Once you dig it up, a lot of water will come out. It is mountain spring water. You can drink it directly and it is a bit sweet."

"But if we just carry them home directly, we can't take much, especially the crops grown by us farmers."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people below began to talk.

"Even if we don't die of thirst, won't these farmers be unable to save us? Then won't we just starve to death?"

"Don't say such depressing words. As long as there is water, there is life. There are so many wild fruits and vegetables on the mountain that we can always fill our stomachs. It's just that the food is a little worse. As long as we can make it until it rains, we can still survive."

"But what if it never rains?"

The head of the village had a smile on his face, and gestured to the people who were still discussing below, "Everyone be quiet and listen to me. It is not enough for us to just have water to drink, we also have to let the crops have water to drink."

"The mountain where the village head lives is so far away from us. It's impossible to bring the crops back for watering."

Then I heard the village chief suddenly raise his voice and say, "There is a lot of water on the mountain, so it won't be a problem to irrigate the wheat. As long as we bring this water into the wheat fields, we can have a good harvest this year."

The villagers below are still wondering how to divert the water.

"The village chief and I have calculated that it's only about 2,000 feet from the top of the mountain to the bottom. It might take six or seven days for the laborers in our village to dig together.

But our village is not the only one without water nearby. As long as we unite, I can guarantee that we can dig a canal from the mountain within two days."

Now the older generation was talking about it, "Digging a ditch down the mountain is ridiculous."

"Yes, I remember when we were reclaiming the land in the past, the whole family, young and old, worked together. It took several days to dig one acre of land. I'm afraid it would be even more difficult to dig a ditch down the mountain."

The old village chief and the head of the village also understood that everyone was unable to react for a while, especially those who couldn't even do the math.

They just thought that the village was so far from the mountain that even if there were a lot of people, it would be impossible to dig a deep and large ditch in a short time.

There were also some people in the crowd who reacted and slapped their thighs and said, "No, everyone can do the math. Although the distance is so far, each person may only need to dig a small distance."

Those who had figured it out began talking to those in the crowd who hadn't yet reacted.

The head of the village said to the old village chief: "You have solved a huge problem for me. Now the dozen or so villages nearby should no longer have to worry about water."

"Old village chief, don't worry, I will also speak highly of your contribution to the county magistrate."

In fact, the current county magistrate is also worried. If he can't find a solution, the farmers under his jurisdiction may flee the famine collectively, and he will have a hard time explaining to his superiors.

Even if they are not blamed, there will be no possibility of promotion. However, if they have made significant contributions within their jurisdiction, they may be transferred to a higher position after the term expires.
