When Sun Lizheng saw Cui Lizheng and Xie Lizheng, he knew that Bai Lizheng might not be so easy to talk to.

Sure enough, when he heard that the other party wanted five guan of food, Sun Lizheng was completely stunned: "I have prepared twelve guan of money."

In the past, it cost three guan of money to build a well, but he prepared 12 guan of money to build four wells.

Bai Lizheng laughed and said: "Brother, you also know that in this world, you can't buy food even if you have money. You should all understand."

This hot day is really good for him. He can earn a few more kilos of food.

If he doesn't think about his own village, why should he think about others? How is that possible?

The three of them, Sun Lizheng, looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally agreed.

If you don't dig a well, you will have no water to drink, and you will starve to death even if you have food. It is better to get some food, dig the well quickly, and then increase the price when the time comes.

Bai Lizheng smiled so hard that his eyes were gone: "Okay, we are all brothers, so let's do it on a first-come, first-served basis."

The three of them yelled at him in their hearts. Even if you are a brother in the family, you are short of food and you are a brother in the family.

First come, first served, that is, go to Cui's house to dig a well first, then go to Xiejia Village, and finally go to Sunjia Village.

Because well drilling cannot be completed in one day, and because it is not possible to move during the day, the well drilling team has to rest in the other side's village.

During this break, the well-dwelling team’s food and drink are under the control of the other village.

In the past, when people were hired to work at home, the owner would be responsible for food and drink, and wages would be paid in addition.

If this had happened in the past, no one would have said anything. After all, food could be purchased.

But in fact, there is nothing that can be said now. Even if the food cannot be bought, one has to grit his teeth and agree to this.

Five kilos of food had been released, so it was impossible not to give them food, so I could only accept it with pinched noses.

Bai Lizheng smiled proudly: "Okay, Xie Lizheng and Sun Lizheng, you go back first. I will ask them to go to Cuijia Village first. After they finish digging the well, they will go to your village."

Xie Lizheng and Sun Lizheng wanted to confirm again that the price would not rise again, but after thinking about it they felt it was disrespectful, so they did not reply and went back.

Cui Li was waiting for the well digging team here.

Bai Lizheng smiled like a tiger that had shed its skin: "Brother Cui, wait a minute, I'll give them a few words."

Cui Lizheng responded with a smile.

Bai Lizheng came to the ancestral hall, looked at everyone, and said with a smile: "It's settled, five stones of grain and one well."

The old man from the Bai tribe had a smile on his face, but the smile soon fell again: "Who do you want to lead the team to dig a well?"

Bai Lizheng's smile froze slightly, and then he said matter-of-factly: "Of course it's Heizi."

The old Bai clan stared at him: "Do you think it's feasible?"

"Why not?" Bai Lizheng smiled a little coldly, "I say yes. As for Heizi, ask him to take people with Cui Lizheng to dig a well in Cuijia Village."

Soon, Heizi was called over. Hearing Li Zheng's words, he was stunned: "Li Zheng, me? If I can't do it, let Brother Xingzi take charge..."

"I say you can do it." Bai Lizheng stared at him coldly, "You have been studying for so long and you still don't have the confidence. Do you plan to sit at home and eat idle meals forever?"

"Five stones of grain! Don't you want to share more? Do you have a lot of grain at home?"

These straightforward words make people unhappy, but no one can shirk such straightforward words. After all, at this time, everyone wants to share more food for the family.

After hesitating, Heizi still struggled: "I'm not very good at acupuncture..."

"Don't be too inferior, you can do it." Bai Lizheng interrupted him, his eyes were cold, "Don't waste time, Cui Li is still waiting, go quickly, when the sun comes up, you won't be able to reach Cuijia Village."

In this way, Bai Tiehei didn't dare to say anything. He took the tools he had prepared and followed Cui Lizheng to Cuijia Village with his brothers in the village.

Bai Lizheng, who was standing at the entrance of the village, looked at the group of people walking away and suddenly sneered: "Why can't it be done? He has been digging wells for longer than Xingzi, so why can't it be done?"

Bai Dazuo is older than Bai Lizheng, his eyes are cloudier than his, and he has long been unable to see the figures of the group of people in the dark night.

After hearing what Bai Lizheng said, he sighed softly: "Xingzi is the most talented person in our village. In fact, he didn't mean to contradict you..."

"Didn't you mean to contradict him?" Bai Lizheng interrupted the elder of the big family in a cold voice, "He wants to dig a deep well in his house, and the cost is the same as everyone else. What's wrong with that?"

"Because he is from the Bai family, he doesn't need to pay for digging a deep well?"

"If everyone thinks this way, then who will do anything? Just let the villagers help dig wells."

Thinking of this, Bai Lizheng was filled with anger.

The well-drilling team belongs to the whole village. If you want to dig a well in your own home, of course you have to pay.

The Bai family waited until Bai Lizheng finished speaking before he spoke up: "Those words were not said by Xingzi, but by others. They just thought that if we are from the same village, even if it is not free, we should give it a discount, and It’s not the same fee as in other villages.”

Bai Lizheng became even more angry when he heard this: "How about a discount? Why can't it be the same fee? Do you really think that if everyone calls him Boss Bai, this well-drilling team belongs to him? He doesn't have to pay for the well-drilling?"

"Why should I give him a 10% discount? That deep well is private to him, so the price must be full. What's wrong?"

"Didn't he say it? Huh, that's what he said. It wasn't him who said it. Others only said this when they were full?"

Mr. Bai looked at the furious Bai Lizheng and wanted to persuade him a few more words. Seeing that he was like this, he knew that he couldn't persuade him anymore, so he stopped.

When Bai Lizheng saw that the elder of the Bai family stopped trying to persuade him, he became even more angry: "You all believe in him, so let him take advantage of it?"

The Bai family always stared at him with helpless expressions. Before he could say anything, he heard Bai Lizheng snort again: "It's so shameless. When people call him Bai Boss, they really think he can replace me."

"I said, if the well-drilling team doesn't let him take care of it, he won't take care of it."

Bai Lizheng angrily threw up his sleeves and left. Elder Bai looked at his back and sighed for a long time. Finally, he came to Elder Bai's house and told the story about Cuijia Village.

After thinking deeply, Boss Bai said: "Big clan elder, the terrain in Cuijia Village is different from ours. There is water everywhere."

"But if the site is not chosen well, it will damage the mountains. You can't see anything in this weather."

"But as long as it rains heavily or there is too much rain, well water can easily erupt."

"If it gets serious, it will cause the mountain to collapse!"

The elder of the Bai clan slapped his thigh: "This is what I'm worried about, so I think I'd better tell you. What about now?"

"I'm going to Cuijia Village." Boss Bai can't just know that something is going on and just ignore it. That will harm the entire Cuijia Village.

As soon as he went out, he stopped and looked blankly at the people standing outside the fenced courtyard.

Bai Lizheng looked at Boss Bai and the elder of the Bai clan, furious and gnashing his teeth: "Bai Tiexing, if you insist on interfering with the well-drilling team I manage, I will expel you from the clan right now."

Boss Bai's face was pale, his pale lips were trembling, he couldn't say a word, and he couldn't even take a step forward.

He was thinking in his mind that Heizi had been digging wells longer than him, so maybe he knew the earth's veins better than he did?

That’s right, just because you can do it doesn’t mean that others can’t do it, and just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean that others can’t do it either.

Believe in Heizi.
