新石器时代

The meat in Ji Huaifeng's hand fell into the water with a plop.

"Your father? Coming?"

The film king was quick, picked up the piece of meat and put it back in his hand: "Yeah."

Ji Huaifeng lowered his head.The actor is Gu Xiaolu's elder brother, and the actor's father is also Gu Xiaolu's father——

Gu Shenlan.

Back then, when Ji Huaifeng first met Gu Xiaolu, he used his identity as the owner of the gym as a cover.At that time, he didn't know about Gu Xiaolu's family background, but he just heard Gu Xiaolu accidentally mention that his father likes to climb mountains, but because of his busy work, he couldn't go there often.So he suggested to Gu Xiaolu that his father go to the gym to enjoy rock climbing.Sure enough, Gu Xiaolu brought him here. He was a middle-aged man in his 45s, with a dark complexion, but his body was well maintained, and his eyes were as sharp as a leopard in the deep forest.As soon as Gu Xiaolu stood beside him, he became a little white rabbit.Gu Shenlan did not disclose her name, but Ji Huaifeng called him "Uncle Gu".Out of politeness, Ji Huaifeng didn't ask any further questions.Gu Shenlan listened to Ji Huaifeng briefly explain the precautions, and without any help, she tied the safety rope around her waist and climbed up.Before Ji Huaifeng came back to his senses, he had already climbed to the top and leisurely climbed over the other side of the wall and descended.

For rock climbing, he only gave a three-word evaluation: "Pediatrics."

Ji Huaifeng Khan, complimented politely: "It seems that you are in good condition, do you usually exercise?"

Gu Xiaolu shrugged: "He runs five kilometers every morning."

Ji Huaifeng sweated profusely and became more careful.A person who is nearly half a century old and still insists on running every morning - even running five kilometers at a time, is by no means so easy to deal with.

Fortunately, Gu Shenlan didn't interfere much with his relationship with Gu Xiaolu, and the days before them were happier than gods.It wasn't until more than half a year later that he finally knew Gu Shenlan's name and real identity.

His father said on the other end of the phone: "You can figure out what to do."

Ji Huaifeng took a deep breath and continued to wash the meat in his hands: "Oh, I saw the writing he left there. Didn't he say he was going east?"

——What is this person thinking?Didn't he only recognize the actor's son?What are you doing here?

"The east, isn't it the direction of Xinhai? Although the world is huge, there are not many places where people live together. He has been there for more than two years, and he has become a local snake. I was arrested by him when I entered the ground of Xinhai. .”

""

The man was as tough as ever.

"I said I didn't come to him, I wanted to find Tang Mingchuan. He said yes, let me wait. At that time, Tang Mingchuan was still dozens of kilometers away, but the next day he asked someone to bring Tang Mingchuan."

""

Ji Huaifeng finally found a loophole: "Wait! He—does he know the relationship between you and Young Master Tang?"

The actor spread his hands: "Before he came to me, Xiao Tang and I have been together for many years." Ji Huaifeng felt that his worries were correct: "So——you don't seem to have a good relationship with him, do you? Because of this?" The actor shook his head: "That's not true. I just feel that my life is already complete, and he suddenly appeared, which is superfluous. You don't have to worry about this, you see, Xiao Tang and I are not getting along well now. Together?"

"Hmm..." Ji Huaifeng really didn't understand, "Since he didn't object, why did he send Xiaolu to some hospital? Didn't he want to reverse Xiaolu's tendency?"

The actor sneered: "Although he is sometimes unreasonable, he still understands common sense. He sent Xiaolu to the mental hospital not because he wanted to reverse anything, but because Xiaolu was really sick."

Ji Huaifeng stood up and said hastily: "Please tell me clearly—Xiao Lu himself said that he was not sick at all, he was sent in by force—"

"Have you ever seen a drunk person admit that he was drunk? Think about it for yourself, if he has nothing to do, how can he pass out all day and forget about everyone? Xiaolu, he—— When the police found him, the wound on his body was inflamed, and he was still running a high fever. He was in a daze, and he kept calling your name. He had the fever for more than ten days, and when he woke up, he didn’t recognize anyone. , I knew to look for you. Later, I gradually became sober, knowing that you would never appear again, so I started to take medicine indiscriminately, saying that I had a headache, and I poured a lot of medicine from the bedside into my mouth, and I was completely confused. It's gone. The old man has no choice but to send him to the hospital."

Ji Huaifeng was stunned: "Is that so?"

"Otherwise what do you think?"

"I—I don't know anything—"

"Yeah, you and I don't plan to go back to China anymore, what do you know about this?"

Ji Huaifeng threw the meat strips aside, and slumped on the grass. "I originally planned to—" he explained feebly, but the actor interrupted him suddenly: "We all only look at the result. No matter what you planned to do at that time, if you didn't do it, you didn't do it."

"I'm talking about you guys! Have you washed it for a long time?"

It was completely dark.Gu Xiaolu walked out holding a burning branch, "Accidentally throw away the meat and come back to see me?"

Ji Huaifeng sighed: "It's here, I haven't lost it, but it smells a little bit on it, and I want to bubble more."

Because Ji Huaifeng and the film king had a dignified look and a serious expression, the whole meal was extremely dull.After dinner, Gu Xiaolu went to clear out the clutter piled up in the empty room and use it as a guest room for them, but it turned out to be difficult—there are only two rooms that can accommodate people, and Gu Lulu is a girl after all, so it is not easy to arrange .With a headache, Tang Mingchuan said, "It's fine for her to sleep with us."

Gu Xiaolu: "Oh."

Gu Lulu yawned: "Anyway, they are the ones who are embarrassed."

So it was settled.

There is only a thin bamboo "wall" between the two rooms, let alone talking, even turning over and yawning can be heard over there.So people on both sides were cautious, not daring to speak out.Just when everyone was falling asleep, Gu Lulu suddenly said: "Father, let's rent this room and live here from now on!"

The actor asked in a daze, "Why? Didn't you keep talking about building a house?"

"Because everyone here sleeps obediently, no one will disturb me."

Ji Huaifeng burst out laughing: "Your father and the others—are they usually noisy?"

Gu Lulu sighed: "I thought you understood."

Everyone fell asleep silently.

After the trading day, the village will hold a general meeting as usual. Everyone counts the things collected the day before and pays taxes.Afterwards, the Niuniu Village General Assembly arranged the order in which everyone would take turns to guard and patrol in the next [-] days.Lu Fei and the others did not arrange them to patrol because they had to dig grass roots and plow the ground every day, and the village meeting was afraid that they would escape.Gu Xiaolu and Ji Huaifeng were arranged twice, once during the day and once at night—Liang Tian heard that there seemed to be something wrong with Gu Xiaolu, so he arranged him and Ji Huaifeng in a group, so that if he Whatever happened, Ji Huaifeng could still watch from the sidelines.

Ji Huaifeng didn't know the reason for this, and thought that Liang Tian arranged this way to take care of the relationship between the two of them, and he had a better impression of Liang Tian.

According to the usual schedule, after paying taxes and arranging the order of patrols, they can leave.After everyone finished listening, they patted their buttocks and were about to leave. Liang Tian suddenly raised his hand and asked everyone to stop: "Slow down—wait—there is something to announce!"

Everyone stopped, all with expressions of "nothing good will happen".

Liang Tian cleared his throat: "Everyone knows, I've been driving Lu Fei and the others to burn grass, dig the ground, and turn over the soil these days. After half a month of tossing, I finally turned over the land in the mountains around our Niu Niu Village. Everyone has also seen that they dug up a lot of things from the field, sweet potatoes, potatoes, sago, cassava, everything. According to the old rules, everything dug out of the field in this village is considered the property of everyone in our village. , everyone has a share. I have discussed with the village assembly, and these things will be shared equally among everyone in the end.”

Ji Huaifeng and Gu Xiaolu stood at the back of the crowd and listened. They thought everyone would shout "OK" together, but there were boos from the audience: "It's over if we divide up early? Why are you so wordy? "

Liang Tian raised his hand to suppress their voices: "However, there is one thing I would like to draw everyone's attention to - that is, these things can not only be eaten, but also can be used as seeds - you see, the yields of sweet potatoes and cassava are quite good. The tall ones can grow more than a dozen after planting one. The leaves of sweet potatoes can be used as vegetables, and the stalks of cassava can be used as firewood. The meaning of the village meeting is that after everyone brings them back, they all find a cool and ventilated place to store them. Well, it will take a few more months to plant it! The weather next year will only be good and not bad, and we will be able to fill our stomachs by farming in the future! Do you think it is good?!"

There was another booing below.

"Divide it and don't eat it, it's like giving a beautiful woman and not touching it - who can bear it when you're hungry?! It's better not to divide it!"

"You talk about farming, but I want to ask what kind of land we want to plant? How do we plant the land? Whoever is in which or all the land together?"

Liang Tian snapped his fingers: "We will do this today, divide the land!"

After listening for a long time, Ji Huaifeng and Gu Xiaolu finally understood why Liang Tian and the people in the village meeting had two panda eyes.To discuss such a complete set of land distribution steps, they would have to quarrel most of the night.

To put it simply, if they want to divide the land, they must first measure all the land in this valley and figure out how much land there is.Then divide the land into small pieces of average size, number them, and let everyone draw lots, and plant the land according to the number drawn.If two people have each other's land, they can also exchange each other.

The lottery is limited to the valley where Niu Niu Village is located.As for the wasteland outside the valley, as long as the people in the village still have the energy to reclaim it, whoever reclaims it will be theirs.The condition is that crops must be planted after reclaiming, otherwise it will not be regarded as occupying that piece of land.

These are just rough rules for land distribution, and there are dozens of detailed rules below, stipulating how villagers should resolve disputes over land issues.

The last one: After the land distribution is over, the village will set up a land committee outside the general meeting; if there are disputes in the village that cannot be resolved by the above rules, then this land committee will resolve them.

Because there is no paper and pen now, all these rules are engraved on bamboo chips.It took Tim Zuzu a long time to finish reading them all.Everyone was a little interested when they first listened, but later they all yawned, and some even fell asleep sitting back to back.Liang Tian finally said in a hoarse voice: "This is the trial draft of the Land Law of our Niu Niu Village. If anyone has any comments on any of it, or has suggestions for improvement, please let me know. We make rules for everyone. The days to come will be easier, don’t you agree?!”

Because everyone was fast asleep and no one said a word.Finally, someone asked: "Then—when will the land be distributed?"

"Now!"

Liang Tian really did what he said.Now there is no tool to measure the length in the village, so they had to cut down a bamboo pole of a suitable size, and then use the length of this bamboo pole as the basic unit of land measurement—a piece of land whose length is one bamboo pole is called a square. One shot.

Everyone cut down a lot of bamboo poles, cut them to the length of the earliest one, and walked to the entrance of the village with the bamboo poles together, planning to start measuring the land from there.Every time a rod of ground is measured, a stone is placed on its four corners as a mark.Gu Xiaolu and Ji Huaifeng also chopped bamboo poles and walked among the crowd, watching where the land was more fertile and where the land was closer to the water.The actor and the others are not from Niu Niu Village yet, so they just followed behind to watch the excitement.Just when everyone was measuring the land in full swing, a dark figure suddenly appeared on the road outside the village.

After a rough look, at least a hundred people came.

Those people were travel-stained, with haggard faces, and their hands and bodies were all empty, as if they had brought all their belongings with them.Today it was Luo Guang who stood on the sentry post, and he shouted towards the village, "No! There are a lot of people here!"

Everyone put down their bamboo poles and looked back, some were surprised, some were puzzled: "Didn't I say that the trading day just passed?"

Gu Xiaolu crossed his arms and said, "Hey, isn't this our old neighbor in Longhu Town? Why did everyone come here?"

Ji Huaifeng saw that those people were very familiar.He was also a little puzzled, "It doesn't look like he's here to do business."

The actor and Tang Mingchuan looked at each other with serious expressions.

By this time those people had approached.The one walking in the front shouted loudly: "The big thing is bad! The big thing is bad! Longhu Town is occupied!"

The actor turned his head silently, and said in a low voice, "The old man still made a move."
