The cannon fodder of fast wear, she chooses to farm

Chapter 290 The Vicious Female Supporting Flees to Farm (40)

After figuring it out, Li Yuanjin laughed and scratched her head: "I said, no matter how bad the harvest is, the lady won't be able to dance to the gods!"

He asked Erlang again: "Is this really so useful?"

"It's useful! Uncle Mancang said that if you persist every day, your back pain will be cured. Aunt Lihua said that her neck is no longer stiff and she can work more easily. Uncle Big Niu said..."

When Li Yuanjin heard this, what are you waiting for!He took Erlang to the open space next to the house and asked him to teach himself.

Erlang: "...Brother, I have to help sister-in-law collect potatoes!"

"I will help with your sister-in-law, you teach me first."

Paused: "What? Didn't you listen to what Big Brother said?"

His family status is really getting lower and lower...

Wait, it seems that it has never been higher, and it is always ranked first from the bottom.

Li Yuanjin barely learned a set of radio exercises, and Fang Erlang left.

He leaned over to Xu Yin's side: "Lady, I'll settle the bricks and tiles for these two trips."

"Are you building a house?"

"The last time I took it to build a room, first it was used as a grain storage for grain and grass. I heard from local old farmers that the weather this year is a bit abnormal. It has not rained for a long time before, and it only rained a little. I am worried about flooding in the future. Take advantage of the fine weather to drain the water. After the ditch was dug, a big deep pond was dug to raise fish. The soldiers all praised me for being blessed and said that I was lucky enough to marry a lady. Hehe..."

This thick-skinned man deviates from the topic every time he talks about business.

However, there was a message in his words—

"Has there been any floods in this area in the past?"

"There was a disturbance more than ten years ago." When Li Yuanjin mentioned this, his expression became solemn, "It was also a drought for half a year, and then it rained for a month, and the low-lying villages were flooded. One life was saved by finding a cave at the top of the mountain. This was luck, as many people were washed away by the flood before reaching the top of the mountain. That’s why the old local farmers said that the weather this year was abnormal, and worried that the natural disasters more than ten years ago would repeat themselves.”

Xu Yin's heart trembled.

For a long time, she has been preventing droughts, thinking about working hard to survive until the beginning of spring next year, when the disaster is lifted and the people return to their original lives.She grows herbs and picks tea, and while completing system tasks, strives to live a prosperous life.

I didn't expect a flood to happen.

Flood protection... Flood protection...

She consciously refreshes the system mall constantly, searching for related tools or skill books.

When I was about to run out of refreshes for the day, I finally found a flood control manual.

Xu Yin bought a thin booklet of 500 points without thinking.

After reading ten lines at a glance, I have an idea in my heart.

"I'll follow you to see if there is any suitable site for building a kiln around the army. It's too inefficient for you to go all over the place. Build a kiln and burn bricks as soon as possible, burn more bricks, and consolidate the embankment."

Li Yuanjin naturally agreed.

So after harvesting the potatoes and sweet potatoes, Xu Yin took her third sister and went to the barracks with Li Yuanjin.

On the way, Erlang was sent to study at the Master's place.

Xu Yin did not break her promise, and rewarded him with a piece of silver, and encouraged him to combine work and rest. It is best to teach his master to do radio exercises, and there will be another reward when he comes back.

Hearing this, Erlang, who was a little envious of his third sister being able to go to the military camp but he couldn't, let go of his depressed expression and went to school happily.

Xu Yin thought that even if this kid gets a good name in the future, he won't become a corrupt official, right?Such a love of money at such a young age.

This doesn't work!
When he comes back next time, he must be brainwashed.

Take flood prevention measures in place now.

Needless to say, afforestation is a long-term task, and it will remain a basic national policy for future generations.

Calculating the time, if the plot does not deceive her, the heavy rain will only start in the beginning of spring, and there will be at least three months before now, enough for the planted trees to take root.

Xu Yin asked Li Yuanjin to mobilize Xiumu's soldiers to plant trees on the mountain. Of course, it would be even better if the locals were willing to participate, as there are more people and more strength.

After inspecting the terrain around the barracks, Xu Yin chose a leeward corner not far from the river bank.

Although the area at the junction of Tongxing Mansion and Dongxuan Mansion is not as rainy as Dongxuan Mansion, the water level of the river is shallow, and the stream on the mountain is thin, but it is not a problem to provide daily life for the local people.

Xu Yin stayed in a small village outside the military camp for seven or eight days. It was not until the military camp built a kiln and fired the first batch of bricks, and taught them how to widen the river channel connecting with the mountain stream and strengthen the embankment, that she brought her third sister back home. Hope Village.

If floods are coming, Hope Village has to prepare early.

A number of dead branches and shrubs have been cleared in Chaishan, and tea trees have been planted, but there is still half of the mountain that has not been cleared.

Every day after finishing her work in the medicine field, she went up the mountain to clean up with hired workers, planting trees while cleaning.

Tea trees are planted on the south slope facing the sun, and fir trees are planted on the north slope in the shade.

Where do the fir saplings come from?

I went out for a trip and brought back a cart of excellent cedar saplings produced by the system.

It will be a month before Chaishan looks completely new.

This month, families in Hope Village lived in brick houses.

The people in the village at the foot of the mountain went up the mountain with something to do, and they were stunned when they saw it:

Isn't this a disaster victim fleeing famine?Come here to open up a wasteland and build a brick house?Have money but nowhere to spend it?

After inquiring, it turned out that the bricks and tiles were fired in the kiln built by Hope Village under the guidance of the village chief. I felt sour all of a sudden, why didn't they have such a capable village chief or district chief.

Then they inquired about the price of bricks and tiles. If they were not expensive, they also wanted to push the mud house over the brick house.

Shi Fengnian happily ran to Xu Yin, saying that he got another order.

Xu Yin said that she would not sell the tiles for a short time, and the tiles were also suspended, and she went all out to burn bricks.

"Tongxing Mansion has been in a drought until now, and the weather may change soon. There was a serious flood outside the city more than ten years ago. Although the terrain here is high, we can't take it lightly, so all the bricks that will be burned next will be pulled away. Reinforce the embankment to prevent the river from flooding the fields."

The people in Hope Village don't listen to her anymore. After all, there is nothing to do in the fields after the autumn harvest, and they are worried about having nothing to do. When they heard that they would have a meal for flood control, they flocked to sign up.

Xu Yin cooks in the morning and distributes the meals by pushing a cart to the embankment at noon; in the afternoon, she leads the women left behind to weave nets and sew sandbags.

In this way, after working together and working in full swing for half a month, a large stack of sandbags was sewn and stacked at the entrance of the village.

The river channel was widened, the embankment was strengthened, the brick-built river banks were protected by hand-woven nets, and the ditches in the fields were dredged.

The people in the village at the foot of the mountain heard that these fleeing famines were working on the river, saying that after a severe drought, there would be a severe flood. Reinforce it, and everyone sneered: If you have this spare time, why not go to the mountains a few times and catch some wild game to have a good year!
Even the head of their village thought so: "It's nonsense! Since our ancestors settled here for generations, we haven't had any floods. Don't listen to their nonsense! It's really an escape from famine and addiction."

Xu Yin heard Wang Daniu, who came down the mountain to return the farm tools, relay the words of the head of the village, and smiled helplessly: "Forget it, we have reminded everything that should be reminded, and there is nothing they can do if they don't want to listen."
