The casual life of the flat space

Chapter 178 Whatever You Say

"Okay, go ahead!"

"The first thing is to set up a drum cart or a dump truck in Beishan River. I can advance the cost, and you can pay me after the autumn harvest or when you have money later. You know our village best, and you can discuss with them how much each family should contribute. I think we should hurry up and arrange this matter first, after all, farming can't wait."

"If that's what you said, I agree. I've heard of this waterwheel before. But firstly, there are few such events in our village, and secondly, the cost is too high, so this thing has never been done.

The weather this year is really bad. The seedlings are not as good as in previous years, and the roots of wild grass are everywhere. I'll leave this matter to you." After listening to Bai Tieying's words, Village Chief Wang thought about the possibility of drought this year, so he agreed to Bai Tieying's method after only thinking for a moment.

“I will go to the county to find a carpenter after my family starts construction, but you have to plan out how to move the water in our village and where to put the reservoir so as not to waste time.

The second method I want to talk about is to prepare for the worse after the drought. First, our village can raise more chickens, ducks and geese. Second, call on villagers to collect mugwort in advance. Third, catch some toads and mantises in advance and put them in the fields and villages. "

"Tieying, these methods you mentioned can... what?"

"Yes, although there has always been a saying that we are not allowed to mention that, but if it really comes to that, we can't just stand there and watch, right?"

"It's easy to collect mugwort and catch toads and mantises, but how much do you need to raise chickens, ducks and geese? Tieying, you don't know, this stuff, it's okay for a family to raise three or five, but if you want to do something, it's useless!"

"I had made some preparations to raise them myself, so I already had large-scale breeding technology and mentors. But after hearing about the situation this year, I felt that I couldn't do it on my own, and every family had to be prepared.

There are two ways to raise funds for breeding. One is that everyone pools money and I make up the difference and then pay it back. The other is that I pay all the money and I charge everyone for the money after they have finished breeding. But there must be a bottom line. For example, if I give someone 100 chickens, the amount they sell to me cannot be less than 80% of the total.

Village chief, this matter should be settled before the construction of my house starts. I will have to make arrangements after the construction starts. After all, if I can't buy so many adult chickens, it will take at least two months for the chicks to hatch and be able to eat insects by themselves!

Also, could you please ask about the two wastelands in our village as soon as possible? First, the other party is waiting for a reply, and second, I need a place to raise chickens, right? "

"Now that you've said this, your Grandpa Wang can't be idle. All right, I'll give you a definite answer on these matters within two days. You're so capable at such a young age, and you've even done something!"

"Grandpa Wang, please don't say that. At most, I am a little smart. It's mainly because I know that elders like you and Grandpa Wu are keeping an eye on me, so I can do a little bit of it." Bai Tieying said, comparing with his thumb and index finger.

"Humph, do you still need us? Isn't your uncle enough to support you?"

"Uncle is uncle, and you are you. From my point of view, you should both love me!" Bai Tieying blinked at Village Chief Wang.

"You, I never realized you had so many thoughts before."

"Grandpa Wang, you know, no matter how many thoughts I have, I don't have any bad intentions! I'm not speaking for my uncle, he really has a good reputation in the city, and he's not a bad person. What happened to my great-uncle...he doesn't know either!

Besides, he is from Xianhe Village. I am not exaggerating, but with his medical skills, won't our village benefit from it? What's next? Can we ask him to make some medicine and spread it out first?

I'll talk to him later about finding a few smart kids in our village to learn from him. Even if they can't become doctors, at least they can learn to recognize some herbs, right?"

"Hmph, do whatever you say. I can't control you!"

"Haha, I knew Grandpa Wang was the best!" Bai Tieying felt relieved after hearing that Village Chief Wang had agreed. So he said goodbye to Village Chief Wang and went home.

After dinner, Bai Tieying boiled herbal tea in three pots, moved the outer water tank to the side of the well, poured the herbal tea into it, and saved it for the people who came to work the next day. In this way, the two "laid-off" notched bowls in the house came in handy.

Although she was very tired after a busy day, she did not go to the space to sleep at night, fearing that people would come early the next day and it would be bad if she got up late. Sure enough, the next day, just after getting up and lighting the big pot, she heard someone walking towards here while talking outside.

"Hey, you should go back quickly. What's wrong with me not knowing the way? There will be a bunch of men here soon. Why would a woman like you join in the fun?"

"Hey, look at you, you bastard. I gave you a favor last night, didn't I? You should work honestly for Tieying these two days. You should have some sense and stop being so listless and just working like a pestle!"

"Hey, stop nagging. You've been nagging for the whole morning. I'm not your son. Do I need you to tell me this?"

"Okay, okay, you're the best. I'm just worried about you. You don't know how to appreciate a good person! Oh, my waist. If I wasn't worried about you and Tieying being difficult to talk to, wouldn't it be better for me to stay in bed for a while longer?"

"Hey, then I'll give you a massage tonight..."

"Get away! You...Hey, Tieying, why are you up so early?" When Aunt Li saw Bai Tieying standing at the gate of the yard, she stopped talking quickly, but her hand continued to pinch Uncle Li's waist.

"Good morning, Uncle Li, good morning, Aunt Li! We are grateful enough for letting Uncle Li come, but why did he dare to trouble us, a thousand-cent household, to come?"

"Hehe, hey, you're a Qianwen household, then what are you? I'm afraid that if there are too many people coming, you won't be able to handle it. Can I help you?"

"You two are here, what about Qiangzi?"

"He's sleeping at home! Don't worry about him. We'll call him when we go back for breakfast."

"Okay, if you can spare some time, come over. I have other things to do these two days, so I may not be able to take care of them. I hope I can take care of them. The jar contains the herbal tea that my uncle taught me to make. It is the best way to quench thirst and cool down in summer. Please help me deliver it to them when the time is right, so that I don't have to carry it. Can I give you 300 coins for the first three days? Meals are not included, because I may not be in the village."
