Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Father Liu arranged the next things, and the days passed in a fulfilling manner.

Everyone was assigned a task and got busy.

Father Liu looked at the adobe bricks made in the open space next to him. The first batch had already dried, but they were not completely dried naturally.

Recently, the back mountain was reclaimed and some dead grass and trees were brought back. The amount was indeed quite large, and Liu Hao would sometimes light some small fires to bake the finished adobes. When the temperature rises, the adobes will naturally dry faster.

They also added some gravel and homemade adhesives into the adobes, so the quality of the adobes is guaranteed and they can be used at home with confidence.

Father Liu saw that the fire-dried adobe bricks did not crack or break, so he thought it would be great if he could make bricks himself. The adhesive they made before was glutinous rice paste and lime. Father Liu only used this adhesive when he made adobe bricks himself, as the villagers did not have the conditions to do so.

The villagers collected adobe bricks because they had loess clay. Everyone had their own wisdom, and as long as the bricks were usable, it was fine.

"Haozi, do you think we can dig a cave to make bricks? We can just use firewood to make them, but we don't have to make them so fine. As long as they can be used, it's fine."

"Of course, you can. Look, there is so much firewood recently. It will take a while to burn it all. There are also endless mountains behind us. The firewood on them will never be burned out."

“That’s because they understand sustainable development and won’t cut down trees indiscriminately.”

Seeing that Liu Hao was taking more than he could chew, Father Liu couldn't help but remind him, "It's the same when you go up the mountain to chop firewood in the future. Don't break the rules. Give priority to dead trees. Then choose dense forests and chop branches that affect growth."

"Uncle, I understand!"

Liu Hao also knew these principles, after all, they had spent a lot of time in those forests when they were soldiers. Indiscriminate logging had long been prohibited.

"Look at how many rooms you can build with these bricks according to the blueprint. We'll burn some bricks every day and build the pig pen first. It's not a big deal to keep the two pigs in the barn all the time."

"Okay, I'll calculate it."

Father Liu stopped working and stood up to wash his hands. "I'll contact the village chief and arrange for the people to build the house. If possible, we'll start laying the foundation tomorrow and build the house slowly."

"it is good!"

When Liu's father was leaving, he saw Liu Xiaolu, who was bored in the house. This granddaughter could not sit still. Now she could not go to school and did not like to do needlework. What should she do in the future?

"Xiao Lu, do you want to go out and play with me? I'm going to the village chief's house!"

When Liu Xiaolu heard her grandfather calling her, she didn't care about anything else and immediately became excited. She ran out in a flash: "Grandpa, wait for me, I'm coming!"

After the two of them left the house, Father Liu asked earnestly, "Xiaolu, what do you want to do in the future?"

"Doing business!"

“Why do you want to do business?”

"Where is the why? What else can I do if I don't do business?"

"Too."

"Are you going to do nothing but take care of the kids at home?"

When Liu Xiaolu came out just now, Liu Xiaomei and Luo Junning were having fun. When they saw her running out, they wanted to follow her, but unfortunately their legs were too short to catch up with her, so they were carried back by their aunt and Grandma Luo.

Although children are cute, it's okay to tease them occasionally. If she keeps taking care of them, she will go crazy. She is still a baby herself?

Now Liu Xiaolu also understood why Liu Caixia changed her age by more than a year younger. If she didn't get married at this age, she would be gossiped about, although there was no law that forced people to marry or pay high taxes if they didn't get married.

But social trends dictate that they cannot be too different.

"Hey……"

"Why are you sighing?" Father Liu looked at Liu Xiaolu with amusement, feeling a little funny and a little distressed. She was just a first-year student, and she had gone through so much. On the other hand, he was glad that their family had always been together.

"Grandpa, what do you think I'm going to do when I get married?"

"What should we do? Don't think too much. There are still several years left. Who knows what will happen in the future? You are still young now!"

"You think I'm still young, but when I play with girls of the same age in the village, they all talk about finding a partner. I find it terrifying to hear that!"

"They are them, and you are you. There are essential differences in your thinking. Although we want to integrate into this society, the fundamental premise is that we want to live happily. It is not about blindly accepting all the customs and habits of this society. As long as it does not violate the laws and regulations here, some worldly views can be ignored. You must always know that your mother and I wish you to be happy. Your good life is more important than any face."

"I know. I'm probably just bored and have nothing to do. Next time I go to the city, I'll ask my mother to take me to buy some paintings and calligraphy from this era for me to see. I'll also buy a guzheng when I can afford it. I wanted to learn it before, and later I learned the piano. It's not too late to learn it now."

"It's always good to learn more. Next time when I have time, I will take you and Ke Yu to the city and let him meet his father."

"Okay, Lin Keyu is studying very hard now, I can't fall behind. I am a girl of the new era!"

"Yes, yes, my granddaughter is amazing. Grandpa has high hopes for you! Even if you can't read, you can become an amazing person in the future."

The two met a few villagers on the way. The villagers didn't have a lot to do at the moment, but they went to the fields one after another to plant some vegetables, or went to the back mountain to see if there were any wild vegetables and fruits that could be picked. If all else failed, they would pick up some firewood.

If we knew each other, we greeted each other.

After a while, we arrived at the village chief's house.

Father Liu stood outside the earthen wall and stretched his head to look into the yard. At that time, the walls of the village were not very high, and some were fenced with bamboo strips. The conditions of the village chief's house were already relatively good. "Village chief, are you home?"

When Village Chief Wan heard someone calling him, he hurried out of the house. Seeing that it was Liu's father, he greeted them warmly. This new family was a noble family in their village. Not only did they buy hilltops and wasteland to increase the village's income, they also built houses and hired people, which were all beneficial to the village. The villagers would live a good life, and he, as the village chief, would also have face. Maybe there would be rewards from the county.

"Brother Liu, why are you here? Come in and sit down!"

Father Liu saw that the people from the village chief's family had come out to watch the fun, so he declined, "Village chief, I won't go in and sit down. I came here to talk about hiring people to reclaim the wasteland and build houses. We need 20 people, regardless of gender, to reclaim the wasteland. For the house, we need the same people who built my house last time. They need to be hardworking, capable and know how to build houses. It's best if they are men, but at least 20 of them are needed."

When the village chief heard that so many people were wanted, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. There was no reason for him to refuse.
