A village chief who does not want to be a village chief is not a good villager

After a run on Uncle Tian San, the matter of Tian Wen being expropriated by the village was settled.

And the door of Tian Er's house, after being closed for several years, was finally opened again and can be used.

After all, Jian Ping said it directly, anyway, Tian Wen usually lives in his original home.Now the time to go back every night is probably after nightfall.

In order not to disturb the rest of the Tian family, it is naturally better to go through the main entrance.

Otherwise, in order to go home and sleep, it would be very frustrating to have to wake up everyone in Tian and then go through the small door opened in the two houses.

Regarding how to tear off the last fig leaf on other people's faces, Jian Ping did not have any psychological burden.

No matter how everyone in Tian's family thinks about this matter, anyway, Third Uncle Tian has already said it, and he will be responsible for clarifying the matter.

In fact, if it wasn't for fear of bad influence, Jian Ping didn't even want Tian Wen to go back, and it would be best to live directly in Jian's house.

But for future plans, Jian Ping still endured this tempting idea.

After leaving the village chief's house, everyone in Jian's village knew that Jian Ping was going to build fortifications for the village against the village guards.

For a while, Jian Ping's reputation was almost equal to that of the village chief and others.So when people see Jian Ping, they all smile.

After all, there are really not many good people who do good things for the village, and more or less let the villagers drink some broth along with them without taking money out of their pockets.

From the afternoon of that day, Jian Ping took Tian Wen to wander around the village.Things like pens, ink, paper and inkstones are frighteningly expensive.Even the current Jian Ping would feel distressed if it was given away for free for others to use...not for Tian Wen himself.

So for a while, Jian Ping made a bamboo slip.There are a total of 150 households in the village, so there are also 150 bamboo pieces.

Then after measuring the length of the backyard of each house, write the name of the head of the household and the length of the backyard on a piece of bamboo.

In this way, there will be textbooks for teaching Tian Wen's arithmetic in the future.

The main 150 pieces of bamboo, I sewed a cloth pocket with Tianwen and carried it with me. Because the brushes and ink were not convenient to carry with me, I got some black charcoal strips for Tianwen, and wrapped them with cloth strips a few times. , It is not only convenient but also not dirty hands when writing.

Jian Ping also took some bamboo slices himself, but instead of recording the length of each household’s Zhuangzi, he recorded the distance between households and the width of some roads, so that all the data can be added up to calculate the whole The true circumference of the village.

Because no one could tell where those mountain bandits and bandits would enter the village from, so the fortifications this time naturally surrounded the entire village.

The construction of fortifications for the village soon became known to the whole village.The materials needed for the construction of the fortifications are nothing more than the bamboos on the back mountain that were useless before and almost flooded.

So even if it was just for the sake of their own safety, the villagers spontaneously went to the back mountain to cut bamboo.

According to Jian Ping's requirements, all bamboos are more than three to five years old.After chopping, put them outside in your own backyard.

This kind of thing is flooded here, so even if it is placed outside the back door, no one will take it, so it is very safe.

As time passed, the work in the fields of Jian's Village was almost finished.So although all the young and middle-aged people gathered here at Jian Ping's side, the time he can stay here to continue training is getting longer and longer.

Jian Ping provides meals every morning, and a bowl of big bone soup is also provided for training in the afternoon.

I train for an hour and a half every morning, and then go home to work.After five o'clock in the afternoon, they gathered after eating, and then trained for another hour, and then drank a bowl of thick bone soup, which warmed the whole body.

After drinking the soup, it is not possible to go home directly.

This free time period was used by Jian Ping to do fortifications.

There were only fifty or so people here before, but after two days of meat porridge and big bone soup, the number has soared to 120 or three people.

On the third day, even the three sons of Master Tian, ​​who had been avoiding Jian Ping before, also came running.

The Tian family has three sons and two daughters, the eldest Tian Jin, the second Tian Yin, the third and the fourth are all girls, named Tian Yu and Tian Bao respectively.

It may be that all the names of valuable things that can be thought of have been used up, and Tian everyone doesn't like copper or something.So the youngest son was named Tian Qian directly.

Also no one.

Three sons came over, Tian Jin, Tian Yin and Tian Qian.

Originally, Tian Jin was the only one who came here on the first day. This year, the boss of everyone in Tian, ​​although his name seems to be the best in the family, unfortunately, he is not the most favored one in the family.

After all, it is not difficult to find out from the first candidate who was pushed over. If he really wants to serve in the military, this is probably the one for Mr. Tian.

After waiting for two days, seeing that Jian Ping did not do anything to Tian Jin, Tian Yin and Tian Qian, the younger ones, also followed.

Although you used to call out the banner of military service before, but if there is someone who insists on stuffing one more person in for a mouthful of meat porridge, you really don't have much to say.

After all, there are four brothers in Jian's family, and it's not surprising that there are two more in other families.

Therefore, Jianjia Village, which originally had only 130 households, forced more than [-] people to come here when more than a dozen households were exempt from military service.

Anyway, for Jian Ping, the current expenses of these people are completely within the acceptable range, so for the future, it is also a good thing for him to have more people now.

Even if the number of people has doubled, the daily meat is only three catties, plus the internal organs and big bones that the butcher handles half-sold and half-given, and the daily expenditure on this is less than one hundred yuan.

The village gave three taels of silver, and Jian Ping prepared five taels himself.I still have to buy coarse rice every day, but because I buy it from my own people in the village, I buy coarse rice and miscellaneous grains from people in the village who are in a more difficult situation at a price of five cents per catty.

After all, it has just been harvested, and even the poorest families still have food at home.

In this way, the villagers are more grateful to Jian Ping.

The vegetables added to the meat porridge are basically free of charge. When everyone comes over in the morning, he can just grab a handful of vegetables from his own vegetable patch, and that's enough.

And in this season, it is no exaggeration to say that the backyards of every household are full of endless vegetables.

To support the cost of one hundred Wen a day, eight taels of silver can be used for almost eighty days.It can be counted, that is more than two months.

And two months later, Jian Ping thought, whether he needs to continue to 'raise' this group of people or actually serve in the military, I'm afraid it has to be resolved.

Fortifications are not complicated.Although Jian Ping has never been a soldier, he has watched many TV dramas.

Therefore, one bamboo is planted on the ground every [-] centimeters to ensure that people cannot get through between the two.Bury it about one meter deep to ensure that people cannot pull it out directly.

Bamboos that are born in three or five years grow very tall. It is not difficult to grow one by one to more than ten meters.

Therefore, Jian Ping asked the bamboo cutters to take the bamboo back and divide it into three sections, each about three meters long.

It is buried one meter underground, and there are more than two meters above it, so it is impossible to jump in easily.Not only that, but after a horizontal row of bamboo is buried, a whole bamboo will be inserted through the middle.Cut thin bamboo strips from the pillars, and tie the vertical bamboo and the horizontal bamboo firmly together.

Then, get some bamboo poles about two meters long, sharpen one end, tie them into a row of ten, and then intersperse them in the middle of the vertical bamboos before.

When not in use on weekdays, there are two rows of pillars standing there.When it's time to use it, just lift it up from below, and the pointed end will stab out obliquely.

Just in case, it is specially made to look like it can only be lifted out but not in.In this way, even if the bandits outside find out the mechanism's doorway, they will not use it back to hurt the villagers.

This project looks huge, but it really can't stand the crowd.In addition, there has been a lot less farm work in the field recently. When every household is idle, they will also go to the mountains to cut some bamboo or directly cut the bamboo poles according to the requirements.

There are many people and strength, and it took less than five days to enclose the entire village with this kind of bamboo fence with its own fortifications.

Of course, there are movable fence gates at intersections where villagers often walk.They are turned off when the villagers come back at night, and turned on when they go out during the day.

The fence gate is only the width of one and a half parking spaces, and the opening and closing are very convenient.

And the village protection team in the village was finally established.Now all are reserve players, mainly voluntary. The 130 young and middle-aged people in the village are still full of momentum when they have morning training together every morning.

Jian Ping directly worked in groups of ten, taking turns to be on duty at night. 130 people, that is, thirteen groups.One group can rest for twelve days after finishing the night shift, so they are not tired at all.

And after the village guard team and the bamboo fence in Jian's Village were all in place, it was heard that a certain village ten miles away had been attacked by bandits that day.

Although the people from the barracks quickly went to quell the banditry, one person died and three were injured.A lot of houses were burned down, not to mention money.

Because of this incident, in Jian's Village, even Uncle Tian San didn't bother Jian Ping anymore.

When everyone else was busy, Jian Ping also copied all the Four Books and Five Classics twice.Fortunately, I have learned these things before, and Jian Ping's memory is really good, so although I dare not say that I have memorized them fluently, it can be said that I have engraved them in my heart.

After finishing the farm work in the field, Jian Dazhu also made a lot of exquisite finished products according to Jian Ping's request and according to the appearance of the previous bamboo slips.

Farmers, unless they are really stupid with their hands, can still do carpentry with a few hands.Although there is still a gap between him and the kind of serious carpenter who can make exquisite handicrafts, it is still no problem to build a bench or a table at home on weekdays.

As for the bamboo slips that Jian Ping wanted to make, it was nothing more than getting bamboo pieces of equal length and width, polished clean and neat, and then weaving them with ropes at both ends.

For Jian Dazhu, Yang Shuxian and others, there is no degree of difficulty at all.

After all, he is a person who can make benches and sew clothes. Naturally, it is not difficult to do such things.

The process of the Jian family is that Jian Dazhu polished the bamboo pieces, then Jian Ping wrote the characters, and then asked Yang Shuxian to weave them in order.

The three of them worked together, and within five days, they managed to make more than a dozen beautiful bamboo slips.

When the bamboo slips were finished, Jian Ping felt that it was time for him to make an appointment.
