After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

The men who were working all put down their work and looked at Li Wu and his party.

No matter what you do, water has always been the top priority. Now that there is a problem with the water source, everyone is suddenly worried.

A few people in front of Fan also stood up and walked over under the shade of the tree.

Great, indeed God is fair and did not give all the good luck to Fan Jin!

Although it would be no harm to him if the medicinal materials workshop was established, he would be happy if it failed. In comparison, he would rather not succeed!

Feng Da lowered his head and blamed himself: "It's all our fault, we must have affected the owner's fortune!"

Otherwise, how could it be that when I was on Zhuangzi, I encountered big rocks while digging ditches to divert water from Mayak Lake, and I worked in vain for more than a year. When I arrived here, I encountered the same big rocks, and I had to work in vain again.

Hong Daniu and others pursed their mouths tightly, their heads lowered and their rough faces full of self-blame.

That time on Zhuangzi, one could say that the old club was an unscrupulous person and that was why they failed. However, they met such a good boss. What else could it be if they didn't know about it?

"Hey, what are you talking about? The stone is right there, and it didn't just stay there for a day or two. How can you say it's your fault!

Don't panic, everyone. Let's go to the old village chief and ask for help. Maybe the old village chief is well-informed and knows what to do. "Xu Laosan said disapprovingly.

"That's right, let's ask my dad first to see if there's anything we can do." Li Wu quickly agreed.

After thinking about it, he said: "It's better for me to help my father over. It's best to go to the mountains together to have a look."

"I'll go with you to help the old village chief over!" Fan Xiaoliu dropped the hoe, wiped the handle, and followed quickly.

The people who were working gathered around and asked about the situation.

Fan Jin glanced at the crowd, turned around, and walked towards home.

There is a shopping mall in Shuiqing, where you can buy all kinds of food and books, feed livestock, grow medicinal materials... Maybe there are also records on how to deal with stones.

Fan Qian, who was behind the crowd, quickly lowered the corners of his mouth and took two steps back.

Great, it doesn’t matter if the old village chief is great in the village. After all, he is just a farmer. How can he know how to move big rocks?

Do the men in the village think that the old village chief is omnipotent?

You are really overestimating your capabilities, and you will be disappointed later.

When Shui Qing saw Fan Jin coming back either early or late, he looked worried again and asked, "Has something happened?"

Fan Jin hummed softly, and explained the situation as clearly and concisely as possible: "The stone is lying sideways, and there are overgrown weeds on it. When I was cutting the weeds, I found that the weeds were uprooted at the slightest mention. No wonder that Can't grow into trees.

We cleaned around the stone for a while and found that the stone occupies a large area. We dug down along the edge and found that the thickness was also considerable. Now we can't move forward and retreat because the stone is stuck there. "

After finishing speaking, he blamed himself: "I am useless. I read the books of sages but don't even know how to deal with a stone."

Shui Qing wanted to say how could you know? These are not taught in the Four Books and Five Classics.

This kind of handicraft production should be similar in "Tiangong Kaiwu".

Fan Jin took the imperial examination route, and he didn't have any books at home. He relied on books from the academy, so it was normal that he hadn't read them.

"I'll go take a look with you. I have an idea. Let's see if it works."

I have learned in history classes in the past that when digging ditches and reservoirs and encountering boulders or cutting rocky cliffs, fire attacks can be used.

Fan Jin's dark eyes blinked and he looked at Shui Qing blankly.

"Let's go."

"Oh, okay, okay."

When the two came to the medicinal materials shop, the old village chief also arrived. The men who originally built the medicinal materials shop had no intention of continuing to build houses. They surrounded the old village chief and followed Xu Laosan who led the way, heading up the mountain in a mighty manner. Go.

The mountain is neither high nor steep, and you can cover the entire mountain in an hour. But the old village chief is old after all, and he was out of breath after walking for a while.

Fortunately, there were many men following, and all of them were strong. Someone came out and squatted down, carrying the old village chief on his back and walking up.

When you get tired, change to the next one.

They walked all the way to the stone, put down the old village chief, and everyone crowded in front and circled around to see what was going on.

Feng Da explained the dilemma sadly.

The men also became sad after hearing this.

The rock is too big to dig or get around. What should I do?

"How about bringing water from the village to wash the medicinal materials?" a man suggested.

Someone immediately retorted: "No, no, let's not talk about whether the well is provided, let's talk about the distance. It's so far and you have to climb a slope. It's okay to walk. How tiring is it to walk with a bucket?

Besides, it doesn’t just take one trip. With so many medicinal materials every day, how much water is needed! The medicine shop is full of women, so there are several people who are responsible for fetching water. "

Twenty coins a day for a person is wasted on fetching water, which is not worth it.

"What about drilling a well?"

"It's good, but I don't know if water can be produced?" After all, Fan Jin's land is high and the soil is hard. I don't know how deep it can be dug to produce water, how much water can be produced, and whether it is enough for the medicinal materials shop.

......

Fan Qian was very happy when he heard the front vetoed each one.

If it doesn't work out well, it would be nice for everyone to live through the hard times together.

Anyway, as long as his family is not having a hard time.

The old village chief looked around, thought for a while and said, "Can we build a trench with soil to draw water? Not from the ground but from the top of the rocks?"

"This is good, I think it's feasible!"

"Anyway, as long as we can divert water, it doesn't matter whether it passes underground or above ground?"

"Yes, the mud barrier is higher, and the same goes for putting bamboo tubes inside!"

The faces of many men were happy, and they felt that the matter was not impossible to solve.

Fan Qian looked unbelieving. Is this solved?

I heard Li Wu say: "We have thought about this before. We are afraid that wild animals will hit us or the heavy rains in summer will destroy it and we have to build it again. If we dig trenches from the ground, we don't have to worry about these things."

"And the front is dug underground. If we don't dig when we get to the rocks, the terrain will be flat and the water flow will not be able to pass through."

The originally excited crowd fell silent.

Feng Dahong lowered his head even lower.

The old club couldn't solve it before. This matter is very difficult and difficult, and basically impossible to solve. Otherwise, their hard work for more than a year would not have been in vain.

The boss has been working hard for just a few days, but it will affect the medicinal materials shop later. If it can be exchanged, they would rather work hard and dig the ditch.

It's a pity that I can't change it...

The corners of Fan Qian's mouth turned up again, revealing his big yellow teeth.

A clear voice came: "I think it can be burned with fire. Let's clean up the surrounding weeds and trees, put the weeds and dead wood on the stone and keep burning it until the stone is red. Then water it with cold spring water. The heat alternates and the stone explodes.

Repeated a few times, this big stone can not only carve out a path, but also protect the bamboo tube without moving at all, making it the strongest. "
