Infrastructure masters in the red building

In Taoyuan Village, the villagers have started to restore various living facilities, such as the three biogas digesters in the village.

Several villagers are gathering together to fill the original location of the biogas digester with soil.The soil they used was excavated from the new site of the biogas pit—Jia Fang planned to abandon the original site of the biogas pit and build a more modern and more automated biogas pit.

"By the way, did you see how the digester exploded that day?"

The rest of the people said no, and the villager who spoke first said proudly: "I was hiding near here at the time, and I saw everything!" Then he described the scene at that time vividly.

Although no one else saw it with their own eyes, everyone had seen the scene of cleaning up the scene there. Coupled with the touching smell, many villagers vomited on the spot.

"It's so scary, do we dare to use this biogas digester in the future!" Another young man immediately said that he would think twice before going to the public toilet in the future.

"You don't understand that." The villager who spoke first was very proud. He is the "backbone" of the new biogas digester construction team and knows the principle and structure of the biogas digester very well. "Do you still remember that Mr. Jia always told us to check those 'pressure gauges' from time to time?"

Only then did the rest of the people think of it—Jia Fang had repeatedly emphasized that people in the village should pay attention to the copper pointer pressure gauge installed on the biogas digester. If the pressure is too high, they should deflate it and ignite it to reduce pressure.

"This time, I blocked most of the air outlets on purpose, and then ignited it at the right time to have that effect. It will definitely not be like this normally."

After he explained this, Yu Cai gradually felt relieved, and the young man who was afraid to use the public toilet earlier finally felt relieved.

"But to be honest, we really don't want to blow up this biogas pond!" The person who spoke first still felt it was a pity, "It's very fast to build a biogas pond. With so many of us, it only takes three to five days to designate it. But it will take at least one or two months to produce so much biogas from the pond to light street lamps in the village and burn gas in every household."

There must be a process from stacking materials into the biogas digester to producing methane.Even if the villagers are super skilled, it will take a while to restore the biogas digester to its original state.

"That's why I didn't want to use the 'stink bomb' to defend." Suddenly someone interrupted, "The recovery is too slow!"

When the villagers turned their heads and saw the speaker, they all turned around to salute, and called out together: "Master Jia!"

Jia Fang smiled casually: "I'm disturbing your work, don't worry about me, I'm just talking casually."

The three "stink bombs" were an unimaginable blow to the bandits, and even "scared" the bandits back in groups, not daring to disturb Taoyuan village again.

But the stockade also suffered a great loss. After all, the biogas digester is a very important equipment for daily life.

Jia Fang took a broad look at Taoyuan Village. Now various facilities destroyed by bandits are being urgently repaired everywhere, trying to restore the original production and living order in the shortest possible time.

At this moment, Wang Erlang suddenly heard the hurried footsteps, ran over, handed a letter to Jia Fang, and said, "Master Jia, urgent letter!"

After the bandits withdrew, the postal route between Wu Yuan and Taoyuan was resumed.It was too late to repair the wooden rails, so the freight and messenger vehicles were replaced by ordinary horse-drawn carriages, with one-third of the original cargo capacity and a slightly slower speed than before.However, due to the stagnation of production in Taoyuan Village, there has not been much demand for bulk shipments recently, and the number of times the coachman sent messages was more than the number of times he brought goods.

This "urgent letter" was sealed with wax, and the tail feathers of three pigeons were stained on the wax, indicating that the degree of urgency was "highest."

Jia Fang hurriedly opened the envelope, only to find that it was a letter from Zheng Boyi, saying that he had found accurate information. The bandits who had evacuated earlier had now regrouped in Yong'an Prefecture, with a total of 5000 people. Pounce again.

Zheng Boyi also wrote down his doubts—he was very pessimistic, thinking that Wu Yuan and Taoyuan had performed too "excellently" in resisting the bandits earlier, which might make some people very afraid, so he put all his eggs in one basket and not only mobilized the troops who invaded Yong'an Prefecture Bandits, I am afraid that even 3000 people from Yongning Prefecture will be transferred later.

Jia Fang was speechless for a moment: Using seven to eight thousand people to deal with Wu Yuan and Taoyuan, is it too high of him?

Zheng Boyi also clearly stated his suggestion in the letter: he suggested abandoning Taoyuan Village and temporarily moving the [-] residents in Taoyuan Village to Wuyuan County for refuge.

In front of seven or eight thousand well-equipped bandits, Taoyuan Village is nothing.Even if Shui Xian sent him the best equipment, Taoyuan Village only had two thousand dong.The several "safe houses" in Taoyuan Village are all karst caves in the mountainside, which are damp and cold and cannot last long. Moreover, if someone finds them, they may be blocked in the caves, which is too dangerous.

But in fact, there are also problems in moving all 5000 people to Wuyuan County.Wuyuan County is not big, with a total population of just over 5 permanent residents.Taoyuan Village accounted for one-tenth of the total population.

Except for Taoyuan Village, the bandits suddenly killed their carbine this time, and the people around the county were caught off guard, and they might flock into Wuyuan County to take refuge. In a hurry, no one would think of bringing enough rations into Wuyuan. I'm afraid it's all about saving my life.

As a result, with so many refugees in Wuyuan County, the food might not last for a month.

There is another meaning in Zheng Boyi's words, that is, it doesn't matter what other people do, Jia Fang must not stay in Taoyuanzhai this time.

Zheng Boyi, as Jia Fang's staff, is not like Jia Yi and Bing Ding, the two personal guards, who have not been instructed by Jia Daishan, and do not know that Taoyuan Village is Jia Fang's most important safe house.

Thinking of this, Jia Fang suddenly realized that he might be able to send all the residents of Taoyuan Village to the capital with the ground whip of Xianliang Temple——

However, if 5000 people appeared in the capital all at once, it would definitely alarm the whole city.And these 5000 people can’t all live in the Grand View Garden, how to solve their board and lodging, how long will they stay in Beijing, when will they be sent back, how to prevent these 5000 people from being frightened and have psychological problems...

After thinking about it, many difficult problems are difficult to solve.

But the most terrible thing is that Jia Fang found out that he might have to give up Taoyuan Village.

This is his foundation, his foundation, and his starting point—this is a new village full of vigor and vitality, people are positive, and various undertakings are developing steadily.

At this juncture, he was forced to give up Taoyuan Village?Hand over such a village that has begun to take shape and has unlimited potential to those brutal and cruel bandits, and let them slaughter, plunder, and destroy?

He can't bear it, he absolutely can't bear it——

Jia Xin was entangled to the extreme, but the men around him who were building the biogas pit didn't know it at all, and asked with a smile: "Jia Sanye, look at what we're building, is it okay?"

Jia Fang nodded and said with a smile: "It's just that you may need to temporarily put down your work—"

Villagers: ...?

Jia Fang: "I need someone to help me notify the two inspection captains, the five village chiefs, and the heads of various departments to hold an urgent meeting."

Only then did the villagers understand, and the men immediately put down the tools in their hands and split up. "Mr. Jia, don't worry, it won't take much effort. Let's go back to work after the notification."

Just as the notice was distributed, Jia Fang suddenly heard the bell ringing from the Xianliang Temple.Two long and one short, it was the people in the mansion looking for him.

No one in the mansion has ever looked for him in such a hurry before.After all, Rong Ning Ergong is protecting him, so no one in the mansion will disturb him.

Could it be that something happened to Jia's mansion?

Jia Xin knew that he had to go and have a look, and immediately confessed that those who were notified should go to the conference room to gather after they came.He comes as he goes.After that, Jia Fang ran away, and returned to the Xianliang Temple all the way, closed the door, and disappeared.

Daoxiang Village in Daguanyuan.

"Who is looking for me?" Jia Fang opened the gate of Daoxiang Village, and saw Shuangwen standing outside the gate, holding the scroll in his hand.

Shuang Wen rushed to Jia Fang and raised the scroll in his hand.

"Shuangwen, I know you care about this scroll, and gardening is indeed very important, but I'm really busy right now, and I really don't have the time..."

His words were cut off suddenly, and he saw Shuangwen pointing at the scroll.

Jia Fang seemed to wake up a bit, and asked, "Is this scroll looking for me?"

Shuangwen nodded.

"Earlier, I saw that Jiayin Hall, Fengyao Bridge and Dicui Pavilion had been repaired, but the third master didn't have time to come back to check, so I went to look at the scroll. On the scroll, those three places have been repaired It's..."

The "repaired" mentioned by Shuangwen means that the pattern on the scroll turns into a watercolor color, and at the same time, a reminder of the next construction target appears.

Jia Fang looked at Shuangwen suspiciously. It turned out that what she said, "find him with the scroll", was actually the scroll that reminded the destination of the next building?

Shuangwen continued: "I know that the third master is very busy recently, and these things should not bother the third master. But after I read the picture scroll on this scroll, I don't know if this may remind the third master."

Jia Fang took a look at Shuangwen, and the two had a good understanding after working together for a while.At this juncture, Shuangwen would never rashly find him just because a new pattern appeared on the scroll.

When Shuixian transported all those weapons and equipment into the Grand View Garden a few days ago, Shuangwen was there.A smart girl like her must have guessed what kind of crisis Jia Fang is facing.

Shuangwen said that the scroll could remind him, and Jia Fang believed that there must be something worth seeing in the scroll at this moment.

He didn't say much at the moment, stretched out his hands, carefully took the scroll from Shuangwen's hands, and unfolded it carefully.

Sure enough, the Jiayin Hall and other places that were painted in ink last time have now been painted in watercolor, and the colors of the black tiles, tiger skin walls, and terrazzo can now be seen one by one.

But there is one thing on this scroll that immediately attracted Jia Fang's idea: there is a courtyard wall in the Grand View Garden on this scroll. This courtyard wall is not square, but shaped according to the situation. The mountain, a courtyard wall built.

Jia Fang received the imperial decree last time, breaking down the partition wall between Ningfu and Rongfu, and merging the East Courtyard of Rongfu into the Grand View Garden.The "breaking the wall" part of this part of the project has been completed, but the "building the wall" part has not yet begun.

After all, what kind of walls to build in the Grand View Garden, what kind of materials to use, all have to be decided by Jia Fang.Jia Fang has been ignoring this, and this matter has been delayed.

In addition to the addition of a courtyard wall in the Grand View Garden, there is another obvious change on the scroll: at the southernmost side of the Grand View Garden, at the gate of the traditional garden, there is an additional "Cuizhang".

"Cuizhang" is a rockery barrier planted with vegetation.In traditional Chinese gardens, "Cuizhang" is often used to block the view at the entrance of the garden, increasing the perception of "covering, hiding, hiding, and revealing". What's the fun in it?①"

The green peak painted on the scroll is also made of piled stones. Jia Fang remembers very clearly that this rockery was described in the original book of the Red Chamber as "a white stone cave, or like a ghost, or like a beast, criss-crossing Arched, with moss spots on it, covered by vines, revealing the path of the intestines.①"

Jia Fang said: "The winding path leads to a secluded place." This is the name his future nephew Jia Baoyu gave to this emerald peak.

Two words decisively appeared on the scroll: "Of course—" Then it fell silent again.

Jia Anxin knew well that the next step of his Grand View Garden was to build the courtyard wall and the "winding path leading to seclusion" at the entrance of the Grand View Garden.

——At this time, the scroll reminded him of the wall of the monastery, the barrier built into the garden?

He stared at the courtyard wall drawn on the scroll, and the green peak at the entrance, and the more he looked at it, the more fascinated he became, and the whole person stayed in place, motionless.

His mind was spinning rapidly, but from the perspective of Shuangwen, Jia Fang seemed to be in a trance, staring at the scroll with numb eyes, and he was completely insane.

Shuangwen whispered worriedly: "Master!"

Suddenly seeing Jia Fang raised his head, his eyes were full of confidence and ecstasy. After a laugh, he put away the scroll, then gave Shuangwen a long bow, and said, "Sister Shuangwen, thank you!"

Shuangwen immediately understood that Jia Fang had figured everything out, and immediately smiled: "Does the third master have any orders?"

Jia Fang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said: "It's not that I can't trust Sister Shuangwen's ability, but this time it's an emergency, and I definitely need someone to help me. In the next few days, please Sister Shuangwen Just like supporting me before, support him in repairing the courtyard wall and green peaks in this garden."

Shuangwen laughed suddenly: "I can't afford the title 'sister', but please don't call me old."

Jia Fang used to call Shuangwen by her first name, but now he recognizes her as "sister" because he is sincerely grateful for Shuangwen's guidance and regards her as a "teacher of one word" and "teacher of one painting".

But Shuangwen presided over these projects in the Grand View Garden alone, and had to organize the purchase of materials from outside. It was inconvenient after all, and she also needed a master like Jia Fang who could control the place.

When Shuangwen said this, she naturally expressed her willingness to obey Jia Fang's arrangement.Jia Fang was relieved, and said: "Go to the gate of the Grand View Garden, find a maid in the mansion, and go and invite my eldest brother."

As soon as Shuangwen heard it, he knew that Jia Fang now planned to invite Jia Amnesty to sit in charge.And when she first entered the mansion, she was almost assigned to Jia She's courtyard as a housekeeper, and even made Jia She and his wife quarrel, so it's really inappropriate for her to show up now.Jia Fang was very thoughtful about these matters.

When Jia Amnesty was found, he was also very surprised by Jia Fang's haste to find him, and wondered as he walked, "My third son, what's going on..."

As soon as he recognized Shuangwen's pretty face, he was immediately scared back: "This is not, this is not..."

Jia Amnesty was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to leave, but was grabbed by Jia Fang: "My brother is in a hurry, please help me!"

"Ms. Shuangwen has always been an important person in the design and supervision of the construction in my garden. But there is an urgent project, my younger brother can't watch it personally, and I need the help of my elder brother. Please, elder brother, this matter is very, very, very urgent—— —”

Jia She rolled his eyes, stayed there, and said, "It's okay, anyway, I don't have any serious errands recently, just help your second brother prepare for his marriage—anyway, with your mother watching personally, it's no big deal if I have one more or one less. "

"Tell me, third brother, what can I do for you?"

Jia Fang immediately thanked Jia Amnesty, and solemnly asked: "Brother, please help me to host, and help me build the courtyard wall of the Grand View Garden and the green rocks at the gate of the garden."

Jia She scratched his head: "The courtyard wall is okay, but the pile of stones and emerald peaks is a test of skill—old three, tell me, how did you think of looking for me?"

Seeing the question asked, Jia Fang didn't know how to answer it for a while.In fact, he really wanted to say—because you built this garden in the first place!

In the original book, it was like this when the Grand View Garden was just a family-saving villa built for the imperial concubine: the builder was not the imperial concubine's father, Jia Zheng, but Jia She.The answer given in the book is that Jia Zheng is not good at common affairs, so he entrusted the project to Jia Amnesty.

Jia Fang privately thinks that Jia She's aesthetics should be very good, otherwise he wouldn't have taken a liking to the twenty or so old fans of other stone nerds. bad" tendency.However, his aesthetic skills and organizational skills in general affairs are all here, and Jia She is no second choice for this project.

"Okay, since you trust me so much, third child, I will agree. Tell me, how long do you need to complete this project?"

Jia Fang solemnly saluted Jia Amnesty again, then stretched out three fingers, and said, "Three days!"

Jia Amnesty and Shuangwen were startled together: "Three days?!"

Jia Fang nodded: "Otherwise, why do we have to ask both of you at the same time?"

Jia She was stunned for a long time, then suddenly smiled proudly, and said: "Three days is three days, it is not impossible. Third brother, brother promises you, after three days, I will give you a garden with a courtyard wall. And an excellent pile of rocks and green peaks."

Jia Fang breathed a sigh of relief: Jia Amnesty took over this project, which proves that he already knows what kind of resources to call urgently, so that he can finish it within three days.I believe that my father and uncle knew about this and would give them secret support.

And him, the burden on his shoulders is even heavier now.He needs to build a city wall for Taoyuan Village in almost the same amount of time to protect the entire village and its population.

According to the mirror image principle of the Grand View Garden, this should also be... achievable, right? !
