Crossing the Unknown Country

The wall around the village was also quietly built up bit by bit. Now some people have asked if they can build a house next to the wall, which can save a lot of wall. The village chief, who has heard the Su family's suggestion, can build a house underneath. In this way, if the enemy comes, the outer wall is too high to climb up, and the inside can stand on the roof to guard the village. It is safe and guards the home, so people are alert quickly.

The village chief made an agreement with the villagers that whoever wants to build a house next to the wall will have to work harder to build the wall. Of course the villagers were willing to do so. It was just a matter of effort, but bricks could be saved. What a good thing. Many families still have adobe houses, which leak when it rains and leak when it is windy. This is a real brick wall, strong and durable. I heard that a layer of paste will be added on the outside at the end. When will it collapse? It is very strong.

Many families in the village built their houses next to the wall. Except for the first one, the others only used three walls to save energy. The village chief did not allow each family to leave any gaps. Building next to each other was safer and saved land. Even Su He and his two families planned to build two houses. They were afraid that when they needed to guard the wall, they would suffer. With their own house below, they could take turns to rest.

The village chief simply planned to build a house next to theirs, and the place was reserved. Su He's family would wait for the wall of the place where their family drew to be built, and then they would prepare to build the house. Su He's parents had to be busy at home again, they had to sell breakfast and make noodles, and fortunately they didn't build the house themselves, otherwise they would be too busy.

Suhe Village is now famous for raising chickens well, and every household is an expert in raising chickens. For the safety of everyone, the village has begun to learn to build city walls like in the city. Although it is just a village wall, it is quite good. They saw that the soil in the middle of the two walls is well mixed, and it is very solid. It takes time to dig this thick, and it is as hard as stone, so it is not easy for ordinary people to destroy it. Last time, a narrow wall saved the lives of the whole village. This village is really good. With such a wall, what is there to be afraid of?

Nowadays, all the girls from the three villages and five miles want to marry in Shili Village. The value of the boys and girls in the village is also very high. Otherwise, why do you think the people in the village are so obedient? The girls and boys are also busy working, making money and saving money!

The village chief has said that if the composting is done well this time and the land is fertilized enough for spring planting, they will not have to worry about food in autumn. They all believe this. Look at the crops of the Su family last year. They grew very well and had a good harvest in autumn. But they still applied fertilizer halfway. They are also applying composting fertilizer this year. You will not go wrong if you follow their lead.

In the end, the villagers still put food first, relying on it to make a living. As long as they harvest more food, they are happier than anything else. In the future, every family will have a room full of food, eat whenever they want, and learn to eat three meals a day like the people in the city. It's so beautiful to think about it. In the future, they can eat rice and flour, wear new clothes, and cover themselves with new quilts. What's the big deal about working more?

Since the village chief had a good talk with them, they were not fools and could not see anything. They saw that the Su family was getting rich. They themselves were not educated and were not as smart as them, but they could follow them and could not go wrong.

Raising chickens is already a promising idea, and composting and farming are definitely no problem, it just requires more strength, so just do it. Seeing that I can make more money, I must build a big house. From now on, anyone who doesn't have two houses will be embarrassed in this village.

Every family in the village wants to build a house. If they can't afford it, they can build a few houses. If they are in a hurry, they can build a house with just one wall and one roof. When the neighbor is building the roof, they just need to put in a little more effort. The bricks are made by the villagers themselves, which is very affordable and you can use the labor to buy bricks.

Seeing that everyone else is starting to build houses, I can't lag behind. Brick houses are more luxurious to live in, unlike mud houses where the walls are peeling and there are drafts everywhere.
