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

Everything is ready. Building a house is a big deal. Many families have to choose an auspicious date and there are also some rituals before starting construction.

Liu's father and his friends had just arrived, and the village chief had reminded them before, but given that they really had a large number of people and had no place to live, they had no choice but to build it. This time, the village chief also brought it up again.

Although Liu's father thought that it was to build a breeding farm, there was no ceremony when the house was built last time. When the village chief brought it up again this time, he still followed his advice and bought two cannons.

"Village chief, let's go to the backyard. I have prepared two strings of firecrackers. Let's light them before we start working."

"Yes, life must have noise to make it prosperous and lively."

As soon as the firecrackers exploded, the workers started moving quickly under the leadership of the village chief and the big pillar.

The village chief looked at the blueprint that Liu's father had brought out and asked in surprise, "Build such a large breeding farm?"

"Yes, so let them send all the adobe bricks from the village to me. The adobe bricks we made ourselves are all over there, and there are many more drying later. Don't we have to lay the foundation first? We can slowly transport the adobe bricks here when we build the main structure. We are indeed afraid that there is not enough space here. If we transport all of them here, we won't be able to put them all in."

"Okay, first, build the foundation according to this blueprint. Your foundation is not simple. I estimate it will take about 20 days to build the whole thing. I thought it would only take a few days. You built such a large project at once, do you have any extra money at home?"

"Brother village chief, don't worry. Didn't you notice that my daughter Caixia is not at home? We pooled our money to buy a shop and did good business. Later, we bought a bigger shop and opened a food store. Business is also OK now. We have money coming in. Caixia will send me money every five or six days. Don't worry."

"Well, well, well, you are really capable. You have built up a business even though you just arrived. Our village has finally produced a businessman. If you need manpower in the future, you should think more about our fellow villagers."

"Don't worry, we will always remember the help the villagers have given our family. It's a mutually beneficial thing."

Under the arrangement of the village chief and the man named Dazhu, the construction of the house was carried out in full swing and in an orderly manner.

Liu Hao led his men to the back of the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, near the stone road, there was no stone slab or other things to make a ridge. It was estimated that all roads at that time were like this. Without a ridge, the soil on the mountain would fall down.

When it rains, a lot of mud will be washed down, so the stone slabs on the road are all covered with mud on the side close to the mountain. If this continues, the road will probably become narrower and narrower.

This mountain is not very steep. When choosing it, Liu's father also took a look at it and specifically chose a slightly flatter one.

Although it is a bit of a slope, it is much easier to cultivate the land.

Going up to the top of the hillside, there is a flat area, and above that is another mountain. The mountains behind are steeper than the other, with lush branches. They are the support of the nearby villages, who go into the mountains to chop firewood, pick wild vegetables and fruits, and hunt.

The people who rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water.

This is how human civilization gradually developed.

Liu's father had previously told Liu Hao the general plan for the future, and let Liu Hao fill in the details himself. The area near the foot of the mountain cannot be built entirely of stone piers, and a way must be found to fence it off.

"Uncle Shanlin, bring all the unwanted rocks from the mountain down here. I'll have arrangements for them when the time comes."

"Okay, I see."

Uncle Shanlin is not a person who knows nothing. He has been doing farm work for many years. In addition, there are many paddy fields here, and people grow rice. Many paddy fields use stones to build the ridges. After listening to him, I know what the stones are used for. I have a better understanding of this family. It turns out that they are not ordinary businessmen.

They really make a living by farming and raising pigs.

There is much less contempt in my heart.

Most of the hillside is empty land, covered with unknown weeds and some small trees, but relatively few larger trees.

After observation, Liu Hao left two slightly larger cypress trees. Cypress trees grow relatively tall and will not grow too thick and take up too much space. Soil erosion on the hillside is still quite serious, and leaving a few trees at these two locations can also help prevent soil erosion.

At noon, Liu Hao called out to everyone, "It's almost time. Let's go home and have lunch so that we can have more energy to continue working in the afternoon!"

The group returned to the yard in a mighty procession, and the people who were building the house nearby also followed Liu's father in through the side door.

Qi Xin greeted everyone: "Everyone has worked hard. Here are two large buckets of warm water. Come and wash your hands. The food is ready. We can eat soon."

Mrs. Zhao and Liu Qianxue brought two large basins and placed them on the square table at the side. Sun Yaqing brought out a large winnowing basket, which was piled with mixed flour buns. They were a little yellow and a little gray, just a little bit. There was more white flour in it.

A few people went into the house again and brought out two buckets, both of which were steaming.

Mrs. Zhao took two large spoons and placed them in the first basin that was brought out.

Father Liu said to the village chief, "Village chief, there are too many of us, and we don't have enough bowls and chopsticks at home. I saw that everyone brought a set of bowls and chopsticks this morning, so I thought of distributing some dishes to everyone, and adding more if the multi-grain steamed buns and multi-grain rice are not enough. I will make sure everyone is full, with one meat, one vegetable, one soup, and enough rice and steamed buns. Let everyone eat to their heart's content."

The village chief had already seen what was prepared on the table. There was a lot of meat in the meat dishes. It was not the kind with more meat than the top, but at least half and half. There was also a lot of yellow egg foam floating in the soup, so the ingredients were very sufficient.

"Brother Liu, your food is already very good." He then said to the others, "Everyone should work harder after eating, okay? Where else can you get such good food? Don't be lazy and go against your conscience."

"Don't worry, village chief, I will definitely work harder."

"I know I know..."

Everyone else agreed, and Father Liu pulled the village chief over to the front of the line: "Aunt Zhao, start serving food to everyone!"

Aunt Zhao picked up a spoon and filled most of the bowls of rice they brought with a spoonful of meat and a spoonful of vegetables.

The village chief looked at the food in the bowl and swallowed unconsciously. Although the Chinese New Year had just passed, they could not eat meat every day during the Chinese New Year.

He took two multi-grain steamed buns and sat aside to eat them with big mouthfuls.

The people behind them lined up in an orderly manner, some wanted steamed buns, some wanted rice. The dishes were the same, one spoonful each for meat and vegetables, and they could get more after finishing the staple food. They were also allowed to serve the soup themselves.
