Depressed little landlord

"How about it?"

As soon as the village chief returned home, his wife asked with concern. He shook his head with a helpless sigh and said, "It's still about planting rice."

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu and Zhang also shook their heads, thinking the same as the village head before, and said with some concern: "How can a rich young master understand this, you, the village head, should teach you more, lest others say we bully you. foreigner."

"Of course I know that. Now that we have come to our village, we can't really let people have accidents with us. Don't worry, I told them." The village chief scooped up water from the bucket to drink, and turned to People shouted in the room, "Is the meal ready?"

"Wait."

"Oh, then I'll go to the field too." After hearing this, the village head went out with a hoe, but his wife chased him out and saw that he had already left, so she hurriedly shouted for him to come back early.

"Got it, I'll be back with my sons later."

When the big wooden bucket was brought back, Lin Xuan wanted to soak the seeds right away, but thought that there seemed to be no land to scatter the grain seeds, so he asked Xu Yang.

"Then we can start with a small piece of land?"

"It's okay, I'll get it later." Xu Yang said that he was about to go to work with a hoe, but Lin Xuan hurriedly held him back.

"It's getting dark this day...Forget it, I'll go with you too, the two of you will be faster."

Xu Yang looked at him and agreed, "Okay, then let's hurry up."

"Yeah." Lin Xuan also went to get a hoe, and talked to Butler Hua and the others, and the two went out together.

At night, before going to bed, I soaked the grain seeds with Xu Yang, got up in the morning, checked and changed the water, covered it with an oilcloth.

Lin Xuan didn't know if this would work, so he would check it out from time to time, but his reaction was quite quick, and soon he saw a little white spot on the tip of the millet, which was obviously a success.

Lin Xuan couldn't help showing a smile, and Xu Yang who followed him looked at these with deep eyes.

"It's just that our family doesn't have fertilizer now, otherwise it should be better." Thinking that it will be sprinkled in the field soon, Lin Xuan felt excited and regretful at the same time.

If it weren't for the fear that plant ash would make the land worse, it would be okay to use this, which is a pity.

"There will always be."

Lin Xuan looked back at Xu Yang who was comforting him, nodded, put the millet back, and stood up.

"What are you going to use to build the shed?"

"It will be all right."

The two walked to the back together. They planned to build the shed behind the house. There was enough open space there for a donkey shed and a latrine, and the smell would not be too big if it was a little distance away.

"Okay, that's up to you to decide."

"En." Xu Yang thought that he didn't have a lot of time, so let's build one with bamboo first, and then cut down the trees after he has been busy for a while, and then build another one properly.

Fortunately, he had already asked the direction of the bamboo forest before, went back to the house, took the hatchet, and went out. Lin Xuan did not follow this time. He cleaned up the place with the housekeeper Xiaoju at home, and cleared out the place to be built. When the bamboo is cut down, it can be built.

When Xu Yang came back from carrying the bamboo, there was an extra pillar behind him. Before Lin Xuan could ask, Zhuzi smiled and said, "Hey, Xiaoxuan, why didn't you tell me that you want to build a shed? My mother didn't even know that Xu Yang met Brother Xu Yang when chopping bamboo."

"Thank you so much, brother Zhuzi." Seeing that Zhuzi also came back carrying a large bundle of bamboo, his head was covered in sweat again, he quickly wanted to pour water for him, but Xiaoju had already brought the bowl over, and quickly took it and said : "Brother Zhuzi, drink some water, brother Xu too. By the way, brother Zhuzi, eat at my house today, and I'll go talk to grandma later."

Both Zhuzi and Xu Yang took the bowls and took a big sip. Zhuzi casually wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, and said with a smile: "Okay, there are still some bamboos from the bamboo forest that haven't been brought back, and these should be Not enough, brother Xu Yang and I will chop some more."

"Then I'm going to trouble you." Lin Xuan said with a smile, and then pulled Xu Yang to ask quietly, "If you cut so much, is the bamboo forest big enough? Don't cut too much, and the villagers will not be happy."

Xu Yang looked at him strangely and a little funny, and said after a while: "There are still a lot of bamboos, and I heard from Zhuzi that there are not only one here, but also in other places, but it is closer to the village, and they often go to cut it. Come and use it, so don't worry."

It was only at this time that Lin Xuan remembered that at this time, the mountains and forests were still unowned and anyone could use them, and there was no such thing as deforestation.

The two of them cut bamboo much faster, and it was almost ready when they moved back. When the construction started, the villagers came to help after the work was over, so the shed was built very quickly, and it was basically ready when it was getting dark. However, the wood used for the pillars was still provided by the villagers. Lin Xuan recorded them all, and they will still have to return them in the future.

In fact, he can also spend some money directly, but recently he has less money on hand, and he needs to save some money just in case, so he doesn't spend money easily recently.

Fortunately, there was still some meat left over from the housekeeper Hua's purchase, but this was not enough, so he ordered a chicken with Grandma Li and came back to kill it. In the evening, he cooked a big pot with some wild vegetables, and invited everyone to have a meal together.

Hearing that the Lin family wanted to invite everyone to a meal, the daughters-in-law of each family also came to help. When the village chief’s wife came, she brought some corn dregs and brown rice. Except for pork and chicken, rice and vegetables are all ready.

"I'm really sorry, this is the only way, it's simpler, I hope you don't mind." Lin Xuan squatted in the yard with everyone with his rice bowl, and said apologetically to them.

Although the food was simple, everyone felt very satisfied with a bowl of brown rice with corn dregs, a piece of pork and chicken, mixed with meat and fried wild vegetables, and there was a pot of chicken soup in the back.

It is rare for them to eat such a meal, so everyone waved their hands when they heard Lin Xuan's words, saying that this is already very good, and no one will mind.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy was holding a bowl, stuffing his mouth full, and said inarticulately: "Lin Xuande, you can eat a thick ashes, sauce!"

Next to him was a boy of the same age who also nodded frequently, indicating that what he said was true.

"Hahaha, Xiaoshan Dongzi, is it delicious? If it tastes delicious, work harder." Everyone laughed and booed.

Both of them blushed a little, and nodded seriously, everyone laughed even louder.This made the mothers of the two very angry and funny, and really wanted to go and pull them away, so as not to embarrass themselves here again.

But seeing everyone laughing happily in the end, I couldn't help laughing too.

As the sky darkened, a fire was lit directly in the yard, and everyone ate and chatted, which was really enjoyable.

"Brother Lin Xuan." Xu Xiaoshan was holding a bowl of soup this time, and he didn't bite anything in his mouth, so he spoke clearly.

He and Li Xiaodong leaned together to Lin Xuan's side, and asked with a flattering smile, "Brother Lin Xuan, what are you planning to plant with your land like this?"

"That's right, why is it so troublesome?" Li Xiaodong also asked.

I have always been very curious about the Lin family's busy work, but their mother is very strict when they usually need help. This time they finally found an opportunity, so they came to ask.

The other people were still joking and chatting, but when the two little ones asked, they couldn't help pricking up their ears.

"Oh, that," Lin Xuan didn't mean to hide it on purpose. He originally thought that if his family succeeded in growing it, he would also plant it for the village, so when he heard the question, he answered it very readily.

"I originally wanted to find a time to talk to the village chief, but because we don't know if we can succeed, so I haven't told everyone for the time being."

Hearing this, the village head also looked over, only to see Lin Xuan continued to smile and said: "I think the land in our village is a kind of saline-alkali land, and it should still be salvageable. As long as it is handled properly, the fertility will keep up. Come back It’s okay to grow rice.”

"Are you serious?" Xu Xiaoshan asked in surprise.

The others also looked at it in shock. This rice is much more expensive than corn. If they can really grow it back, their life should be much better than it is now.

"Yeah." Lin Xuan nodded, endured the little guilt in his heart, and smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, we are still experimenting with this, if it works, everyone will be able to grow rice by then .”

"You mean to, to..." The village head was a little excited, squeezed over, and his tone became stammered with excitement, "Are you going to teach the village?" This question was a little cautious, and the people around They are also holding their breath, afraid that it will be too loud to make people unhappy, what should I do if I regret it? .

There are good methods on those Zhuangzi, but they will not be easily taught to others, but this Young Master Lin said that he would let them do it together.

"Correct."

The author has something to say: It was raining here when I got home last night, and it was hard to call a taxi. I was drenched in the rain, plus motion sickness, and I had a stuffy nose and sore throat in the middle of the night-_-||Everyone, keep warm!
