Dressed as a cute kid with a farm: Pick up a brother to farm
Chapter 140 1 half, gone?
Almost everyone in these villages has dark circles under their eyes, but their eyes are exceptionally bright.
The chief of the small mountain village, also brought a group of men to guard the entrance of the village.
One side of the group is heading inside, while the other side is heading outside. At first glance, it seems like they are in confrontation.
The chief of the small mountain village had two buckets of water brought to the entrance of the village, and then he spoke loudly to the people opposite.
"These two buckets of water are for you to drink."
"Wait here for now. I will discuss the details with the village leaders and then have someone take you to fetch water."
Everyone was excited, but no one dared to raise any objections.
Didn’t you see that their village chief didn’t say a word?
After one night, several village chiefs had figured it out.
The small mountain village's water distribution this time should not be just for profit.
Even if it costs money, it probably won't be too much.
Otherwise, according to their situation, they won’t be able to buy it for too long.
Once the villages have no money to buy water, can they still ignore the small mountain village, which is a popular destination?
When people are desperate and can’t afford to buy things, they will steal or rob.
The small mountain village asked them to take the people from their respective villages back before distributing water to everyone, probably just for the sake of stability.
Only when everyone has hope of survival will no one cause trouble.
Therefore, although the village chiefs had little money, they were very confident.
Of course, they are not fools, and they will cooperate when necessary.
-
Nearly a hundred people came from four villages.
This is a big threat to the small mountain village.
Therefore, they did not rush into the village rashly, but waited obediently at the entrance of the village.
After waiting for a while, two buckets of water arrived.
When these men saw the clear water, their eyes widened and they rushed forward to watch, but no one dared to take action.
Before they set out, their village chief had already warned them that anyone who dared to disobey would not be given any water when they returned!
If they didn't share the water, the whole family would have to endure hunger and thirst for the whole day.
If everyone has water but you don't, wouldn't that be life-threatening?
Which line of this?
So, even if the village chief spoke, even if their lips were cracked and bleeding, they just gathered around the bucket eagerly, and no one reached out to grab it.
The four village chiefs were pleased to see them doing their duty.
As expected, I have reminded you dozens of times not to bring shame to their village!
"Cousin, is this water really for us to drink? Is it counted in today's water allocation?"
The chief of Anmu Village, relying on his family connections, was the first to ask everyone's questions.
"Not counting."
Niu Youcai shook his head and said with a smile: "Carrying water is a strenuous job. Everyone needs to drink some water to have strength."
"We in this small mountain village are not stingy. We gave away all the extra water. Two more buckets is nothing."
After hearing this, everyone praised the kindness of the small mountain village and the magnanimity of the village chief.
Under the arrangement of the four village chiefs, the men lined up in four rows and began to drink water, one sip at a time.
Two buckets of water are not much for these people, but they are enough to moisten their throats.
Seeing everyone queuing up in an orderly manner to drink water, the village chief Niu Youcai led four village chiefs to his own yard for a talk.
The topic of the conversation, naturally, was about the water-sharing rules and the compensation they needed to pay.
"You mean, half of the well water belongs to you, and the other half is shared among our four villages?"
The head of Xiaofeng Village frowned. He never expected that the small mountain village would be so stingy.
"What? You don't agree?"
The village chief Niu Youcai's face also turned black.
If we give them half of it, their water supply will already be very tight. It's impossible to split it equally with them, right?
Niu Youcai is not the kind of person who would sacrifice his own village for the sake of others!
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the village chief of Youliang Village quickly tried to smooth things over.
"No problem! We agree! Agreed!"
He quickly pulled the head of Xiaofeng Village back to his seat, and the head of Anmu Village, An Rong, also went to pull Niu Youcai.
“Half level score is pretty good!”
An Rong smiled and said, "The water belongs to Xiaoshan Village. We can't say anything if they don't share it. Xiaoshan Village is willing to share half of it. We are already very grateful! Right?"
An Rong signaled to the village chiefs of Xiaofeng Village and Shangshui Village with his eyes.
Only then did they react.
Yes, the small mountain village is willing to give half of it to the four villages. What's wrong with accepting that?
If there is not a single drop of water in the small mountain village, they can't say anything.
But now, if they take out half of the water and distribute it in half every day, it is enough for several villages to survive. What's there to be dissatisfied about?
"Yes, yes, yes! I agree!"
The head of Sheung Shui Village immediately expressed his opinion.
"I agree too!"
Xiao Fengcun figured it out and broke out in a cold sweat in such hot weather.
He is greedy!
"Now that everyone agrees, it's time to talk about the compensation."
Seeing that everyone agreed, the village chief Niu Youcai started to talk about the next question.
"As you should. I wonder what kind of reward you need, Brother Youcai?"
The village heads all secretly weighed their wallets at the same time, hoping that their guess was correct and that everyone would be able to afford water.
"No need for reward, but everyone in your village is pretty idle right now, right?"
The village heads looked at him in confusion, puzzled, but still nodded.
"The news that our small mountain village has water has only spread to a small area."
"But after I give it to you, there's no guarantee that more people will know about it."
The head of the fourth village nodded, that was the truth.
"What do you mean?"
"Our village wants to form a patrol team. Of course, we can't just do it. You should each send some people and take turns patrolling every day."
"If there are people stealing water, you guys have to help."
After hearing this, several people felt that this was not a problem.
After all, they will also have a share of this water in the future.
"can!"
"Besides this, there is one more request."
Seeing that no one raised any objections this time, the village chief Niu Youcai was in a good mood.
"You say."
Niu Youcai was slow to talk about the reward, and everyone seemed to be waiting for a verdict, feeling very nervous.
So far, the water seems to be free, which is disturbing.
"After the drought, our village will build a village wall and renovate the ancestral hall. All of your villages will need to provide people, and we won't provide food and accommodation."
This was discussed by the village.
The village wall is mainly used to prevent wild animals from coming down the mountain from behind. The ancestral hall...
The well water is provided by the blessing of ancestors. Now that the disaster year is over, what's wrong with renovating the ancestral hall?
Is it too much?
Not too much!
Is it reasonable?
Extremely reasonable!
Hearing this request that did not seem like a request, the four village chiefs nodded and looked at Niu Youcai eagerly, waiting for him to continue speaking.
"Why are you all looking at me? Can you please say something?"
"to make!"
"to make!"
"Of course!"
"to make!"
"Then it's settled. Knowing that the ancient well in our small mountain village is not dry, I will give you half of the water every day."
"Gone?"
The head of the Sicun Village was surprised.
