After the Earthquake of Rebirth

When it was finally possible to go down the mountain and replace the wires, the distribution of land also began.

On the morning of April [-]st, Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen came to the water station to wait.

Now the highest temperature during the day is 20 degrees. If you go out at noon, a long-sleeved T-shirt and a coat are enough.And the lowest temperature at night was just above zero.

Yesterday, before the land was divided, Du Cheng and Huzi drove down the mountain and drove back to the city, and moved the solar generator at home. At the moment, the two are pressing the solar panels on the top of the mountain.

"Brother Qiyan, Brother Xiaowen, good morning!"

Not long after Ning Qiyan and the two arrived, Wang Yang, Wang Zhixiang and Ke Chengwei also came over. Seeing them, Wang Yang greeted them with a smile.

"Morning." Ning Qiyan smiled.

At this moment, almost all the people living nearby had arrived. It was announced the day before that the land would be officially divided at 10 o'clock this morning. Ning Qiyan looked at his watch, and there were less than [-] minutes left.

Their place is on a high ground, and the residents are not as dense as those below. Although Ning Qiyan's family doesn't have many contacts with the people nearby, it's hard to know them or not after they've lived here for more than half a year.

It is also precisely because of the small number of households that relatively speaking, the land that can be cultivated is enough for each family to divide. The remaining surplus will be distributed to those who have densely populated households at the foot of the mountain and do not have enough land nearby. .

At eight o'clock sharp, the soldiers stationed at the water station simply came out with the measured land plan and spread it on the ground for everyone to see together.

That is to say, there are few houses, and if there are more water stations nearby, they would not dare to open them all at once, so that everyone can discuss and choose, and they might fight for the sake of ordering.

This is the first time that Ning Qiyan has seen all the land in the vicinity. One acre of land is a small square. Not only are there a lot of squares on the blueprint, but the location of each cave is also marked. I can clearly see the location on the map, and when I choose the land to be cultivated in the future, I can see from the map where it is close to my home and where the terrain is convenient for carrying water to irrigate the land.

Because the grove above Ning Qiyan's cave was cut down, when the land was surveyed later, the soldiers also surveyed that piece of land, plus the area between their house and Wang Yang's house, it was exactly two acres.

The four members of Ning Qiyan's family can be allocated eight acres of land. After removing these two acres, another six acres must be selected.

Ning Qiyan was not in a hurry to choose, he first listened to the places that other people were optimistic about, the area of ​​land around here was enough, but it was the difference between two steps more and two steps less, when he had a good idea of ​​the places everyone was looking at , choose again.

In fact, when it comes to farming, most of the people in the vicinity have no idea except for the elderly at home. The impression is that they are digging, planting, watering, weeding and so on.So I can't tell which piece of land is good for planting and which piece of land is not good for planting. Basically, I choose the place close to my home.

Seeing that everyone had almost chosen, Ning Qiyan was a little surprised.

From the picture, the small mountain depression next to the water station, which is the mountain depression where they went down to rescue people before, marked 25 small squares on the picture, which is equivalent to 25 mu of land, but no one chose it.

After thinking about it, Ning Qiyan suddenly realized that everyone felt that the slope in and out of the mountain depression was not easy to walk, and it was inconvenient to carry water to irrigate the ground, so they ignored it.

Ning Qiyan turned his head and talked with Ning Xiaowen in a low voice for a while.

"Brother Qiyan, which one do you want to choose?" Seeing that Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen hadn't moved for a long time, Wang Zhixiang came over and asked.

Ning Qiyan pointed to the two acres of land near the cave, and then pointed to the land in the depression, "The top two acres are close to home, and then add six acres to the depression, which is exactly eight acres of land."

After seeing the location pointed by Ning Qiyan, Wang Zhixiang nodded, then turned to discuss with Ke Chengwei and Wang Yang for a while.There is five acres of land between their cave and the water station. The location is very good. Not only is it very close to the water station, but the terrain is relatively flat. However, not only their family but also two other families are connected to the five acres of land. The family is also optimistic about this place, but because the relationship between the neighbors is good, everyone discusses that the three families will share it equally, and the remaining land will be selected from other places.

The five mu of land was divided into three families, and one family had less than two mu. Wang Zhixiang and the others saw that more than half of Ning Qiyan's family's land was in the valley, and there was still a lot of land in the valley. Together, they simply told the other two to give up the five acres in front of their house. Acres of land, directly choose twelve acres of land that is connected with Ning Qiyan and the others in the mountain depression, so that they don't need to be separated to take care of it, and the two families can be a companion together.

Ning Qiyan had no objection to Wang Yang's choice. It was actually more convenient for people who were familiar with the adjacent land, and it also saved minor conflicts that might arise.

As for the five mu of land in front of Wang Yang’s house, it was finally divided among those two families. A couple in their 40s and their 11-year-old son wanted two mu of land, and the remaining three mu of land was distributed to another family. There is an elderly man in his 70s and a family of four with a four-year-old child.This is how neighbors look after each other.

It is better to give in to each other than to fight back and forth.

After everyone has selected the land and determined where they will farm, every household can't help but go to their own land to see first, and plan how to take care of it.

Ning Qiyan was not in a hurry to go back, looking at the mountain depression on the map where no one had chosen except them and Wang Yang's family, there were still seven acres of land left vacant.He thought that when he visited Bai Chengyi's cave before, there seemed to be many people nearby, and he didn't know if their land was enough. If it was not enough, he might as well let them come to the col.

Bai Chengyi's cave is not far from Ning Qiyan's water station, which is similar to the distance from Ning Qiyan's own cave to the water station, but this time the land division did not divide Bai Chengyi's house here. How to divide the area specifically Yes, Ning Qiyan doesn't know, but the distance is not far anyway, and everyone knows each other, and they can help each other when they get together to farm the land.

Just do it when you think of it, and before the free space here is allocated, Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen greeted Wang Yang and the three of them, and walked to Bai Chengyi's house.

When the water pipes were first laid, for the convenience of fetching water, there was a water outlet about 400 meters away. Ning Qiyan said that the water station below their cave was the highest point, and Bai Chengyi's family gathered at the water station below.

Looking at the noisy crowd, Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen tiptoed their toes carefully looking for Bai Chengyi and the others.

Snapped!

Ning Qiyan was patted on the shoulder.

Not prepared at all, Ning Qiyan was shocked, turned around and saw Dong Wen'an standing behind him with a smile and withdrawing his hand.

Ning Qiyan rolled his eyes.

"Be careful and turn your eyeballs out again." Dong Wen'an joked.

They have met more times, and Huzi and Du Cheng are in the middle. The two families are quite familiar with each other now, and they often joke around.

Ning Qiyan rolled his eyes again, using practical actions to prove that his eyeballs are still safe.

"Why are you here?" Dong Wen'an asked without joking, not seeing Hu Zi and Du Cheng.

"Our land selection is over, and there is still a lot of vacancy. If you don't have enough, go there. Our family and Wang Yang's family's land is in the mountain depression, and there are seven acres of land left unclaimed." Ning Xiaowen explained.

Dong Wen'an thought for a while, "Wait a minute, I'll go in and see if Dabai has chosen well. We have paid attention to a few plots of land before, but we may not be able to grab them." Dong Wen'an squeezed into the crowd as he spoke.

Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen took a few steps back, prepared to find an open space to stand, so as not to be squeezed by people walking back and forth.

"It's better than us. There are fewer people and more places, so everyone can discuss it. It seems that there will be a quarrel here." Ning Xiaowen saw a big rock not far away, and pulled Ning Qiyan to go there , whispered.

Ning Qiyan twitched the corners of his mouth, this is where it is, the law and order in his previous life was not as good as it is now, the place where he and Du Cheng lived always talked with their fists.

After waiting for a while, I saw Dong Wen'an, Bai Chengyi and Zhang Wei pushing out from the crowd.

Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen greeted them.

"How is it?" Ning Qiyan asked.

Bai Chengyi wiped off his sweat, "Go, go to your chosen place!"

Ning Qiyan didn't ask in detail, and they walked back quickly.

On the way, Bai Chengyi said that before Dong Wen'an found them, Bai Chengyi and Zhang Wei had already robbed five acres of land, but knowing that Ning Qiyan still had seven acres of land connected with their family, he gave up another two acres, and the remaining Ning Qiyan's three acres are right behind their house, so it's easy to take care of. In addition to Ning Qiyan's seven acres, it's exactly ten acres of land for five people.

Seeing that the remaining seven acres fell to Bai Chengyi and the others, Ning Qiyan felt relieved.In this way, the entire mountain col belongs to the three of them, and it will be much easier to help each other in farming.

After the land was settled, every family on the mountain began to take the time to dig the land. Before planting, they had to turn over all the land at least once.

The land in the mountains is not the farmland that is usually cultivated. There are all kinds of rocks and grass roots. What's more, after digging half of the land, it is found that the bottom is full of rocks, so I can only change another piece of land to continue working.

Because the land at home was divided into two places, Ning Xiaowen took Ning Qiyan to loosen the two acres of land near the cave first, and picked out gravel and grass roots. After the soil was soft and breathable, the two opened the gate of the cave. With a lock, he took the hoe to the field under the mountain depression.

Wang Yang, Wang Zhixiang and Ke Chengwei have never even seen farmland, not to mention farming, and now they are being taught by Huzi and Zhang Pingguo, but they still don't get the point.As soon as the hoe goes down, it's either deep or shallow, or it just hits the foot.

Huzi wished he could pry open their heads and stuff a hoe in.

Zhang Pingguo didn't blow his beard and stare angrily like Hu Zi, but he shook his head. If only these three people who can't support the wall can hoe the twelve mu of land, it is estimated that it will be just in time for the next spring's planting.

In the end, Bai Chengyi and Huzi made a plan, and the three families worked together. Everyone started from Huzi's house closest to the water station, followed by Wang Yang's house, and finally Bai Chengyi's house.In this way, with familiar hands, Wang Yang and the others learned while watching, and there will always be a day when they get started.

As for Wang Yang and the others, they repeatedly waved their hands and refused...

Huzi sighed, he couldn't just watch these three stupid kids starve to death, could he? !

Seeing that the two families had made a decision, the Wang Yang family, who were holding back, could only accept their kindness with a blushing face.

On the contrary, the three of them also knew their own level. There was an old saying that the stupid bird flies first. It doesn't matter if they work slowly, then double the time!

So although the three families made an appointment to start working in the field at [-] o'clock in the morning, Wang Yang and the others would get up at [-] o'clock, fill their stomachs casually, and go to the field first to continue working on the ground that had been dug the day before.After finishing work at six o'clock in the evening, after dinner, they went back to work until nine or ten o'clock.

Regarding Wang Yang's actions, the other two families knew well, but they agreed tacitly and did not stop them.

They didn't have to care about who did more and who did less, otherwise, even if Wang Yang and the other three worked around the clock 24 hours a day, they couldn't keep up with Hu Zi's progress.But now even a fool knows that if he wants to survive in the short term, he must take root in the farmland.No one knows that this "short term" will be a few years, or more than ten years.Wang Yang and the others could simply sneak into a hospital set up by the government as a doctor, eat public food, and be supported by the government.Or, you have to adapt to the current labor.

The two families can take care of them for a year or two, but it is impossible to take care of them for a lifetime.What's more, these children are not from the local area. Once the roads between cities are cleared, who knows what kind of situation they will face if they return to their hometown.Learning to farm is at least the most basic guarantee in this world.
