Devouring Chaos
Chapter 6 Maturity
Once we have this batch of vegetables, there will be no need to buy Lu Wan’s expensive vegetables anymore!
Guan Xiaobai has been running back and forth these days. After finishing his work at Piaoxianglou, he comes to guard the vegetable fields in Guanjia Village, hoping that the vegetables will grow and mature quickly!
There is a house next to the vegetable field. Sometimes when it is late, Guan Xiaobai does not go back to the city but lives with the farmers who guard the vegetable field!
That night, Guan Xiaobai did not return to the city, but lived in a house with the vegetable farmers!
"Boss Guan, are you asleep?" a vegetable farmer said!
Guan Xiaobai was lying on the bed next to him, closing his eyes and feeling the strength in his body. His cultivation had improved in the morning and he had reached the sixth level of physical training!
Guan Xiaobai heard someone calling him! He opened his eyes and looked at that person! His expression was full of confusion!
"Old Yan, is there something wrong?"
"Well, it hasn't rained for several days, and the water we stored is almost gone! If it doesn't rain tomorrow, I'm worried that the vegetable fields won't be able to be irrigated! It will affect the growth cycle of the vegetables!"
Guan Xiaobai looked surprised!
"Don't you have a well here?"
After hearing this, Lao Yan looked puzzled. After hesitating for a while, he asked, "What is a well? What is a well used for?"
Guan Xiaobai looked at Lao Yan's expression and it didn't seem like he was joking!
I couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity!
Don't the people here know how to dig wells? They just dig a small hole to store rainwater when it rains, and eat rainwater?
"Okay! I understand!" Guan Xiaobai said helplessly!
It seems that I have to help the vegetable farmers dig a well tomorrow! Otherwise, it will affect the growth of vegetables!
The next morning, Guan Xiaobai got up and took Lao Yan and several young people from the village to the grocery market in the city!
Digging wells is very dangerous, and you must buy some protective equipment to ensure the safety of the well diggers!
There are lots of weird stuff in the grocery market, and some things people don’t know what they are for!
Guan Xiaobai walked and looked around! He first bought a few bundles of strong ropes! Then he saw something that looked like it was sliding down, and bought a few pairs by the way!
After walking and stopping here and there, Guan Xiaobai saw a grocery store selling something in fine powder form. There were powders of various colors!
"Boss, do you have any powder with high viscosity?"
The boss was a woman. When she heard Guan Xiaobai's question, she was surprised and said, "I don't know what you are talking about? These things are all shipped from the Western Regions. I don't know their functions, but the big parts can be used as dyes!"
"Oh! I got it!" Guan Xiaobai nodded!
Then he bought a bag of each type of fine powder! Along the way, he would buy some of any fine powder!
Everyone pushed a cart full of things and followed Guan Xiaobai!
After Guan Xiaobai took a walk around the grocery market, he went to the quarry to buy some gravel and fine sand!
After the purchase, Guan Xiaobai let out a sigh of relief!
"It seems that I need to experiment by myself!"
I returned to Guanjia Village with the purchased materials!
Guan Xiaobai first ordered people to mix fine powders of different colors with gravel and sand! It didn't take long before a dense mass of stuff was obtained!
People looked at Guan Xiaobai in surprise as he squatted down and used his hands to shape the sticky substances into blocks!
It didn't take long for Guan Xiaobai to look at his results with satisfaction! Now he just had to wait a day for these things to solidify before testing them!
Everyone looked at Guan Xiaobai in confusion. Old Yan mustered up the courage to ask, "Master Guan, what are these things for? Do you need them to dig a well?"
Guan Xiaobai smiled slightly, "Of course it is necessary, and it is very important!"
"Oh!" Although Lao Yan didn't understand, he still nodded!
Guan Xiaobai was holding on to the sliding wooden frame with a few others!
A woman came running over in a hurry!
"Old Yan, come back with me quickly. I don't know what's wrong with the child today. He keeps having diarrhea!"
After hearing this, Old Yan looked nervous and stopped working!
"Master Guan, I have to go home and look after my kids! I can't help you with your work today!"
Guan Xiaobai's expression froze after hearing this, "Let's go and take a look together!"
Now the wooden frame that was used to tie up the fallen tree has been set up, and there isn’t much work left!
Then a few vegetable farmers were left behind to guard the fields, and Guan Xiaobai followed Lao Yan and his wife to the village!
It took less than half an hour to get back to the village!
Old Yan hurried back home and saw his child squatting on the ground holding his belly with a look of pain on his face!
Old Yan was very anxious, "Goudan, what's wrong with you? Tell daddy now!"
The woman hurried forward and touched Goudan’s forehead!
"Dad, my stomach hurts, and I didn't eat anything dirty!"
"Hey, his father, stop dawdling and take Goudan to the city to have a look!"
Guan Xiaobai walked up and asked, "Goudan, do you just have a stomachache? Do you have diarrhea?"
When Goudan saw Guan Xiaobai, he didn’t recognize the stranger in front of him!
Lao Yan explained, "This is Master Guan, the boss who contracted our land. You have a stomachache, tell me what symptoms you have!"
"Oh, yes, I just have a stomachache, nothing else is wrong!"
Guan Xiaobai nodded slightly, then went to the kitchen and took a look at the food they were eating. The food was all good and not expired, but the half ladle of water remaining in the wooden ladle caught his attention. The water was rather turbid!
Guan Xiaobai then thought of something and went to the water storage area in the yard!
There is only a shallow layer of water in the water kiln, and it looks very turbid!
It seems that the vegetable farmers used their own stored water to irrigate the fields, which resulted in their family members not drinking the water quickly, causing the stomachache!
"I think I already know what the problem is!" Guan Xiaobai turned around and said!
"What's the problem?" Lao Yan asked hurriedly!
"It's the water! If the water is too turbid, drinking it will really give you a stomachache!"
"How about this, you take the child to see a doctor quickly, and I will take care of the rest!" Guan Xiaobai said softly!
Then he took out a hundred taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Lao Yan!
"How can I feel embarrassed?" Old Yan's face turned red!
The two taels of silver Guan Xiaobai gave them a day was already enough, but now he had to give them so much, he felt embarrassed!
"Why are you wasting time? I'm giving this money to Goudan, not to you! Take it up and see a doctor!" Guan Xiaobai scolded!
"His father, just take it!" the woman advised!
They are all villagers. It is not easy for them to earn money. They spend almost all the money they have earned for several years on medical treatment. Only with Guan Xiaobai's money did they have the courage to take Goudan to the hospital!
"Okay! I will remember Mr. Guan's kindness!" Old Yan gritted his teeth, took the banknote with gratitude, picked up the five-year-old Goudan, and hurried to find a doctor!
Guan Xiaobai looked at Lao Yan's receding figure and felt guilty. After all, it was all his own fault. If he hadn't used the water stored in Lao Yan's house, Goudan wouldn't have drunk the turbid water, and of course he wouldn't have had a stomachache!
"I hope Goudan is okay..." Guan Xiaobai said silently in his heart!
