I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

Everyone rejoiced, "Qiu Qi is right, our little Zhangzhuang discovered this undercurrent first, so we should use it first."

"But this government...do you really want to go?"

Someone hesitated.

After all, if the government intervenes in this matter, then the undercurrent is not up to them to decide.

"Qiu Qi, if the government finds out about this matter, our undercurrent will really disappear."

Some people looked at Lizheng unwillingly, hoping that Lizheng could stand up and say something.

After all, everyone still remembers how the previous official uniforms oppressed them.

When the imperial court recruited soldiers before, they often threatened ordinary people like them.

When handing over food to the court, those people's methods were also more ruthless than one.

It is precisely because of this that many people have distrust of the government.

Despite Zhu Qiuqi's reminder, Li Zheng didn't trust this matter so much.

After all, they were all people who had been oppressed by the government, so they were naturally worried that the people in official uniform would do something to them again.

"Please, look at the newspaper officer..."

Lizheng wanted to ask if it was possible for them not to report to the official, but when the words came to his lips, Lizheng couldn't open his mouth anyway.

Because Zhu Qiuqi had already told him the pros and cons of this very clearly before, if he said such a thing now, it would be irresponsible to the whole Xiao Zhangzhuang.

Zhu Qiuqi also saw Lizheng's worry. Regarding the government's attitude towards the common people in this era, Zhu Qiuqi was not good at commenting.

After all, the parent officials in this era are quite different from the parent officials in the place where he lived before.

"Uncle Lizheng, I understand your concern. But do you think that with the help of our people from Xiaozhangzhuang, we can compete with the people from these ten miles and eight villages? It was snatched away, but how can we compete with the powerful landlords behind it?"

In front of those powerful landlords, the lives of ordinary people are like ants.

Zhu Qiuqi didn't want anything to happen to everyone, so she came up with such a way to protect Xiao Zhangzhuang.

However, she did not expect that even Li Zheng, who is usually the most rational, would be confused about this matter.

When Li Zheng heard Zhu Qiuqi mention those powerful landlords, he felt a little uneasy, but he was not so sure about this matter.

After all, those landlords are different from ordinary people like them. They need the flowing water to survive.

But those landlords and tyrants have money in their families, and they don't have as much water as they want, so why bother to fight with them in this small mountain village?

It was precisely because of this that Li Zheng felt a little lucky about it.

But now when he heard Zhu Qiuqi mention these powerful landlords again, Li Zheng's heart couldn't help but shake.

He also knows that Zhu Qiuqi's words are true, no one thinks there is too much money, and there is such an undercurrent that does not cost money, who will have to occupy the undercurrent?

Looking at the direction of the undercurrent, Lizheng was also a little depressed.

It seems that the undercurrent of their back mountain is really going to be unable to hold on.

And what Zhu Qiuqi said was right, they were the first to discover this undercurrent, so Liu and their little Zhangzhuang should get these benefits first.

Even if the people in the government know about this, they can't say anything about them.

"Oh, what Qiu Qi said is right, we have to report this matter to the official uniform."

The person who originally wanted to persuade Li Zheng not to report this matter to the government and secretly suppress it, also lowered his head in disappointment upon hearing this.

We are all ordinary people, so what we think about the most is naturally our own affairs.For the other people in Xiaozhangzhuang, I am afraid that everyone did not think so much.

Because of this, when Zhu Qiuqi thought of this idea before, she didn't tell the villagers in advance, but told him her concerns when Lizheng came.

Although Li Zheng has his own little selfishness, fortunately, he still has reason.

Seeing that Lizheng had returned to his previous serious appearance, Zhu Qiuqi also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle Lizheng, there is no rush to report this matter to the government. After the canals in our village are completed, water will be stocked up for the people in our village, and the fields will be irrigated again. It will not be too late to report the test to the government. "

Zhu Qiuqi planned well. After all, their little Zhang Zhuang discovered this undercurrent first. If they were given Xiao Zhang Zhuang to enjoy this wave of benefits first, the county magistrate would not care.

Lizheng heard Zhu Qiuqi's words, and heaved a deep sigh of relief.

"You're right, we have to stockpile some water for the people in our own village."

Seeing Lizheng figured it out, Zhu Qiuqi smiled again.

"Uncle Lizheng, don't worry, Xiao Zhang Zhuang reported this matter to the government, and the government will remember our good. If something good happens in the future, it will think of our Xiao Zhang Zhuang immediately."

Lizheng heard Zhu Qiuqi's words, and subconsciously wanted to refute.But when the words came to his lips, he remembered what Zhu Qiuqi had told him before.

The achievements of the county magistrate are closely related to ordinary people like them. If the number of these ordinary people decreases, it will not be a good thing for the county magistrate.

"Qiu Qi is right. No matter what, let's stock up our own village with water first."

Li was talking and looked at the people around him, "Did everyone understand Qiu Qi's words just now?"

When everyone heard Li Zheng's question, they nodded again and again.

They might be very angry when they heard Zhu Qiuqi's words at first, but after carefully thinking about the danger that this matter might happen, everyone also felt that Zhu Qiuqi's method was good.

"Lizheng, don't worry, we won't spread the word about the undercurrent in our village."

After the lotus root was sent to her natal family by some women in the village, everyone in Xiao Zhang pretended to be cautious.

Later, seeing that Li Zheng really refused to let those wives go back to Xiaozhangzhuang, everyone was relieved and at the same time they became more and more angry with those people.

I feel that if they hadn't gone out to make public, their Xiaozhangzhuang would not have ended up in such a passive field.

"Just remember, these days, clean up the water cellars and water tanks at home, and store up as much water as possible for yourself when the undercurrent comes down."

Everyone nodded again and again, and some people even thought about how to empty all the water tanks at home to fill them with water.

"Okay, okay, let's leave first. Let's dig the canal at night. Digging the canal at night is not easy to be discovered by other villages. Everyone remember to prepare tools at night."
