Eating big melon is so refreshing
Chapter 176 Empty Joy 1
A moment ago, the sun was hanging high in the sky, releasing its heat generously, as if to set the whole world on fire. The earth was scorched hot, and the air was filled with a scorching breath.
The next moment, the dark clouds spread rapidly like a surging black tide, swallowing up the entire sky. The sun's rays were completely blocked, and the world fell into darkness.
Then, a strong wind blew up, shaking the branches and leaves of the trees and making the corners of people's clothes rustle. The wind brought a hint of coolness, but it could not calm the panic in people's hearts.
Then, heavy rain came down. The rain did not fall drop by drop, but poured down like a waterfall. The big raindrops hit the roof and the ground, making crackling sounds. The street instantly turned into a river, and the water flowed rapidly.
This timely rain saved half of the crops. What a joyful thing! The seedlings that had been drooping their heads and dying straightened up again under the nourishment of the rain, glowing with tender green. They swayed in the wind and rain, as if showing people the tenacity and perseverance of life.
Farmers looked at the fields in the rain, their faces filled with joy and hope, their eyes full of longing for a good harvest in the future. The rain not only moistened the land, but also moistened their hearts, rekindling their passion and confidence in life.
However, the heavy rain also made it more difficult to enter Phoenix Mountain to eliminate wild animals. The originally dry mountain road became muddy and slippery, and the steep slopes became even more dangerous under the erosion of rain.
Fortunately, this heavy rain came and went quickly, lasting only 20 minutes. When the sun reappeared, most of the accumulated water evaporated in just a few minutes, and the heavy rain also washed away the heat.
Young Master Mingyue and his group did not delay because of the heavy rain. They appeared in Guangning town on time.
"Everyone is here, let's go!" Xiao Chunya ran to the front of the team, looking very excited and wanting to take the lead.
"It's too hot. Drink a bowl of water before you go."
Wanzi took a bowl of cold water. Xiao Chunya didn't suspect anything and drank the water in one gulp. She only took three steps and fell down in a dizzy state!
Zhao Erlang caught it quickly, and Xiao Qiulin, who was standing next to Wan Zi, raised his hands in surrender. He didn't need to drink the knockout drug to go up the mountain.
what's the situation?
Master Mingyue dodged Eighteen's attack alertly. His face twitched as he said, "Don't knock me out. At most, I won't go up the mountain."
"The young master keeps his promise." Eighteen said with a smile, "The young master said that when you turn twelve, you can go up to the mountains and hunt as many wild animals as you want."
"Got it. You all should be careful." Master Mingyue had no choice but to agree. Who could he beat now? No one!
"Let's go up the mountain!" The person in charge was named Eighteen, and a group of people got on the car in a mighty manner. Yes, because the Phoenix Mountain and the town are now separated by a sand dune, but the distance is at least five miles, and walking is too time-consuming, and a carriage will be needed to carry the wild animals down later.
"Xiao Qiu'er, what are you doing?"
"It just so happened that there was a heavy rain, which turned the sand dunes into sand ridges, and planted sweet potato vines. In a few months, my sister will have sweet potatoes to eat."
Xiao Qiulin directed several cousins and the children in the town to work together. After a while, Luo Xiaopang came with Luo Xiaomei, followed by Lin Shaoxuan.
"Xiao Qiuzi, you didn't go up the mountain?"
"No."
"Xiao Chunzi went up the mountain?"
"No, she drank the knockout drug and won't wake up for at least half an hour."
"Hey, Lin Shaoxuan, you win the bet." Luo Xiaopang was a little unconvinced. "How did you guess that? Xiao Chunzi has met the requirements. Why can't he go up the mountain to hunt?"
Lin Shaoxuan smiled slightly. "Xiao Chun'er's strength meets the requirements, but her age does not. No adult will allow a child to go into the mountains to hunt. At least, they are absolutely not allowed to go into the mountains before they are twelve years old."
Young Master Mingyue glanced at Lin Shaoxuan. He had never noticed this person before, even though he ranked first in the county exam and the prefectural exam.
"Little Fatty, Little Fatty, do you like sweet potatoes?" Xiao Qiulin coaxed, "If you want to eat sweet potatoes, let's make sand dragons together. This is interesting and fun."
Why does this sound like the intention of kidnapping children? Master Mingyue said, "We can't finish it even if we work for several days and nights. What about those idle people in the town? Gather them and pay them 30 coins for one day's work."
"I've been waiting for you to say this." Xiao Qiulin took out a small loudspeaker and handed it to a chubby five-year-old boy, saying, "Do you know how to shout?"
"Know!"
The little fat boy shouted with full energy on his little loudspeaker, "Emergency notice! We are urgently recruiting sand shovelers. The wages for one day are 20 cents, and the wages will be settled on the same day. The number of people is limited, first come first served!"
He repeated this sentence twice, and then handed the small loudspeaker back to Xiao Qiulin. This action made several friends praise him, what a talented person!
Luo Xiaopang kept asking curiously, "Who is Xiaopangdun? I've been here several times but never saw him."
"Grandpa Fugui's grandson is called Tieniu. He didn't live in the village before."
Rich families like the Luo family all want to own a house in Guangning Town, let alone the local tyrant Zhou family who don’t know ancient martial arts. They send their children here first to make them familiar with the family so that they can talk to them later.
After a while, ten men came one after another. Xiao Qiulin felt that there were enough people, so he told them how to operate.
When Xiao Chunya slowly woke up, she found that the hunting team had already gone up the mountain an hour ago, and half of the sand dunes were ready. Seeing that her younger brother and Master Mingyue were unable to go up the mountain, she felt a little more balanced.
Adults and children divided the work and cooperated with each other. The adults made sand ridges, and the children inserted sweet potato vines into the sand and then sprinkled a thin layer of organic fertilizer.
"We have to be grateful for the heavy rain, otherwise it would take a lot of time just to water the plants."
Xiao Chunya said, "This piece of sand dune can be made into 30 mu of sand dunes. How can we manage so much land?"
"Why not just rent it out to someone else to manage? Many people in the town don't have land. We should give priority to those families who have contributed to the town. Based on the actual population, we can rent them two or three acres of sand dunes, and split the harvest 70% to 30%."
Xiao Qiulin said, "30% of the profits will be used for public purposes. In the future, we will use this money to build bridges and roads, subsidize the elderly and widows in the town, help the needy, and repair the ancestral hall."
We can't ask the villagers to raise everything. After all, they are not rich. They may not object once or twice, but if it happens too often, it will be difficult for the village chief to ask them to raise funds. Everyone needs to eat.
"This is a good idea. Lin Shaoxuan, your family should move to the town as soon as possible. I will allocate two acres of land to you." Master Fu must dig it up and don't waste it.
