I rely on infrastructure systems to build a prosperous village
Chapter 99: Pier Planning
During the afternoon hours (15:00 PM-17:00 PM), Li Lan took a detour from the back mountain to Liujiawan. Walking along the path, he felt a surge of joy, observing the trees and colorful flowers thriving on both sides thanks to the abundant rain. He thought to himself, "When I have time, I'll develop this path into a scenic tourist attraction."
"Xiaobao, can you measure the flow rate, depth, and width of a river? I remember you said you have clairvoyance."
"Host, this isn't how I use my clairvoyance. It was originally used for drawing maps."
"Xiaobao, are you the infrastructure system?"
"Host, of course I am the infrastructure system."
"Then I asked you to measure the water flow, depth, and width for construction purposes. I'm planning to build a wharf in Liujiawan. Wouldn't you like to show some real skills and help?"
"This... Host, you are right. Then I will help you test it."
"That's right, Xiaobao. We are one. Only if we help each other can the infrastructure of several villages be completed better, and your mission will be completed faster."
Xiaobao: PUA Lan is online again, bringing the long-lost feeling of intimacy.
After a while, Li Lan entered Liujiawan, deliberately avoided everyone, and came to the bank of the Chu River.
"Xiaobao, start working."
"Okay, host."
Li Lan looked at the ripples on the river and thought: With this speed of water flow, building a dock should be no problem.
"Host, the width values are different, some are wide and some are narrow."
"It doesn't matter. Just compile a copy of the data for me."
"Okay, host."
After a while, Li Lan looked at the data about the Chu River in his hand, his face filled with joy. He thought to himself: Liujiawan's location is really good. It is right at the bend of the Chu River. The bay is wide and the water is deep. It is a perfect place for building a port. However, the river embankments on both sides will require a lot of manpower and materials. They can only be built after the infrastructure is completed.
Thinking of this, he turned around and went to find Village Chief Liu. Entering the village and looking at the cobblestone road that was mostly paved, he secretly praised the people in Liujiawan.
Suddenly, her brows furrowed slightly. She came from the end of the village, but why didn't she see a single villager? Just as she was wondering, she heard crying and shouting in the distance. Li Lan followed the sound and walked quickly over.
"Oh, I'm dead. Everyone, please judge for yourself. I've never met such cruel parents. When the county government distributed disaster relief grain, they said that if you split up the family, you'd get more food. Almost everyone in our village split up, but our Zhang family didn't. Everyone knows that they didn't split up just to make us work like slaves so that our brother-in-law could go to school.
Later, during the flood, our son Zhang Sheng disappeared, and his parents didn't care. When our son Shitou fell ill in the county town, they didn't care either, leading to his current condition. Now, we want to follow the village's instructions and demolish our house and rebuild, but my father-in-law disagrees. If he doesn't agree, then we'll split up. We're willing to follow the village's instructions."
"You vicious woman, Second Brother, either you divorce her today or you don't recognize me as your father."
The Zhang clan leader leaned on his crutch, pointed at the woman on the ground with trembling hands, and cursed.
"Dad, isn't what Chang said right? When will you ever treat our second branch family as human beings? Either we separate today, or I will tell you everything you asked me to do."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang clan leader took a few steps back, his breathing became rapid, and he fell backwards in an instant. Behind him, his eldest son Zhang Quan supported him and shouted, "Dad, Dad."
At this moment, Huang saw her old man faint from the anger of his second son and daughter-in-law. She walked over and attacked Chang on the ground, cursing, "You little whore, you little bitch! It's all because of you gossiping all day that my son has become estranged from us. I'll beat you to death, you bitch."
"Alright, mother. If you still want me to call you mother, then stop hitting Chang. She became like this because you didn't treat Xiao Shitou's illness, which is why he became so stupid now."
Huang paused, her raised hand. Turning to look at Zhang Sheng, her eyes reddened as she choked out a sob, "Second son, even you say that about your parents. Aren't we all doing this for the good of the whole family?"
"For the good of the whole family? Mother, when you didn't come to find me, you had already abandoned me. Don't say anymore. If we divide the family today, we can still have some affection left."
"Er'er, you..."
At this time, Chang stood up with a red and swollen face and pushed Huang, who was standing next to her, to the ground.
"Alright, alright, let's get Doctor Liu to come and see your father first. We can talk about dividing the family property later."
Village Chief Liu looked at Clan Leader Zhang, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, and said.
After hearing what the village chief said, Zhang Quan quickly carried the Zhang clan leader on his back and walked into the house with Huang.
"Oh, see. This is karma."
"Isn't it? They started to sow discord between us and the Liu clan, then Hong Lao didn't care about our lives, and now they're fighting among themselves."
"This clan leader, why didn't we realize how bad he was before? Oh, I was really blind at the time."
"Okay, stop talking. Otherwise, you'll be remembered."
……
There was a murmur among the crowd. Village Chief Liu, listening to the growing chatter, said quickly, "What are you all still standing around for? Get back to work. You don't even want to live in your new house anymore."
"Go, go, village chief uncle, we'll go right away."
"Oh, Miss Li is here."
"Miss Li, please look at us."
"Yes, Miss Li. We all thank you."
……
When Village Chief Liu heard this, he was delighted. Looking at Li Lan who was surrounded by the crowd, he quickly shouted, "Quickly disperse and get back to work.
"Grandpa Liu."
"Lan girl, how are you? Let's go to grandpa's house and talk."
"Wait a moment, Grandpa Liu."
Li Lan stepped forward, looking at Zhang Sheng, who was standing there pretending to be a quail, and said, "Zhang Sheng, I originally gave your father and the others a chance to save you, but who would have thought they would actually go to the county government overnight. We have no choice but to send you to the county government office."
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Sheng's eyes were full of gloom, his pursed lips trembled a few times, he clasped his fists towards Li Lan, and took Chang into the house.
Looking at the Zhang family with the door closed, Li Lan raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Girl Lan."
"Village Chief, let's go and talk while we walk."
"well."
……
The two sat down in the main room. Mrs. Wu smiled, brought them some water, and then went out.
"Grandpa Liu, I just went to check it out. We can build a wharf here. But while building the wharf, I also want to widen the riverbanks by another three meters to build embankments. This will not only prevent flooding, but also block tides and waves. But this will take a lot of manpower and material resources. We can't build it now. We have to wait until the infrastructure construction of several villages is completed, and then we can build it as soon as possible. However, the location for the wharf must be selected and piled first, so I can use it when the time comes."
When Village Chief Liu heard her say this, he nodded in agreement. His face was full of smiles, full of anticipation and yearning for the future of Liujiawan. He looked at Li Lan with admiration. He quickly said, "Okay, Lan girl."
