When the village chief and Master Lin heard this, they also thought that this was a good idea." Yes, that's right. This well really needs a lid. It was not because of anything else, but because the rainwater that fell from the sky mixed with the water that came out of the well. The taste was several levels lower.”
Master Lin looked up at the sky and smiled gently." Hehe, that's not all. The birds flying in the sky don't know where to poop. If they poop in the well, it'll be quite disgusting.”
The village chief and Mou Lin stood up again and lifted the stone. There were only three rounds of stones left, so it didn't take much effort. A long stone might be able to block one side.
Mou Lin and Master Lin were fine after the well was done, but the village chief was exhausted. He sat there panting heavily.
"Uncle Village Chief, do you want some water? I'll go to the house and cook some for you."
The village chief panted twice. He did not want to drink the water in the pond that was filled with the fishy smell. Although it was boiled, the fishy smell would not be lost.
He believed that Master Lin would not want to drink the water either. Although he was a little thirsty now, he could still endure it.
"Don't go. I'm not thirsty now. I'm just a little tired. I say, kid, you're not that old either. How do you have such great strength? I, a man who has been doing farm work for a long time, can't even compare to a young boy like you. It's really f * cking strange.”
Master Lin smiled." Village Chief, don't underestimate Mou Lin. This kid might be like what he said. He might have trained his strength."
It's just that we don't often come up to the foot of the mountain to see how he helps his mother, so we don't know.
However, our village has produced people as strong as him. For example, your father. I heard that when he was young, he went to the deep mountains and old forests to carry wood out to sell.
Each of them weighed two to three hundred catties. He had to carry her out of the deep mountains alone and walk such a long distance. Think about it, how could he be weak?”
"Hehe, that's true. When I was young, it was scary to see him eat. I don't even need a bowl to hold it, but a basin. That basin is bigger than my head, so it should hold at least two catties of rice.
The entire basin was full, and he finished it in a few bites. My mother said that she couldn't afford to feed him anymore. He eats even more than the pigs at home.”The village chief laughed after saying that.
The village chief and Master Lin stood up and went back as soon as they finished their work. They really did not drink a single sip of water. Next was Mou Lin's job. He continued to drill into the well with the hammer and the tool to hit the stone.
The earlier they were done, the earlier the seedlings in the fields could be guaranteed. It was the same for the weir pond. There was only one-third of the water left. If it continued to dry, there might not be enough water to save the seedlings.
Not to mention the skinny fish in the pond. When that time came, they could only dry the fish.
Mou Lin frowned after hitting it twice. The well was too dirty.
"Looks like I still have to clean this well. There are so many gravel pieces, cement paste, and dead yellow mud that has been stepped in. If I don't get these out, it will be difficult to clean it up once the water comes out.”
He climbed out of the well, held the hoe in his hand, and jumped into the well again. He gathered the stones into a pile and threw them out.
The inside of the well was different from the outside. In a short while, his clothes were dirtied by the cement on the wall and the dust on the rocks.
After cleaning up the soil and stone fragments with great difficulty, he placed the hoe outside the well and continued to take out the hand hammer and Zhan Zi to hit it.
It was noon soon, and the sun outside was scorching hot. Especially in this well, it was especially hot and humid. The humidity outside made people feel especially uncomfortable, but no matter how uncomfortable it was, they had to endure it.
Tomorrow, there would definitely be water coming out of the well. At that time, it would be much more difficult to clear the water out. Even now, water was seeping out of the small hole.
"Hehe, looks like it's going to be soon. We're about to hit the bottom. Looks like this so-called big rock isn't too thick. When Uncle Village Chief said that, he was so shocked that he almost scared someone to death.
The ancients said it well. As long as one's martial arts was deep, an iron rod could be ground into a needle. I don't have much else now, but I have a lot of time. I still don't believe that I can't get any water.”
After taking another piece, it was very obvious that the next piece was empty. As soon as he took out the paper, water immediately sprayed onto Mou Lin's face.
Some of the sand in his mouth was sprayed out. He quickly retreated to the side and wiped his face. He kept spitting the sand out of his mouth." F * ck, so fierce."”
As she spoke, she felt that there was sand in her mouth. She quickly moved to the water that had been sprayed out and gently inhaled a mouthful. After rinsing her mouth a few times, she spat it out of the well.
At this moment, the water had already risen. He quickly climbed out of the well. Looking at the clear water in the well, she felt particularly happy. This was the first thing Mou Lin had done, and it was a major event in his life.
"Hehe, with this water, it's impossible for me not to make a fortune in the future.
Ten acres of paddy fields, with an annual yield of 1,000 catties of rice per mu, and 700 catties of rice, each catty of rice was sold for three yuan, which was more than 2,000 yuan per mu. If he sold eight mu of rice, it would be more than 10,000 yuan.
Adding on the other output, he could make at least tens of thousands a year. This was not inferior to working outside. Although those who worked outside earned a little more money, they had to pay rent, utility bills, and food. The amount of money they spent every day was not a small amount.
At home, I eat my own food. Other than buying some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and clothes, I basically have no living expenses. If I can't beat them, then there's really no one else.”
After packing up all the tools, he slowly walked into the house. There were only a hoe, a pickaxe, a hammer, and a mat.
At this time, the weather was very hot. He ran to the pond and took off his clothes to take a bath. Now, he would not eat the water from the pond. In fact, he would not eat much water from the well. With the space, there would be an endless supply of spring water.
When he returned home, he heated up the leftover food that he had made in the morning. After dinner, she slowly thought about what she should do in the afternoon and walked around the house a few times.
"Hehe, don't we still have to dig the cover stone on the well? Also, we have to cut down a few long bamboos. It's best to get the well water into the paddy field first. After the paddy fields were filled, the water flowed into the weir pond.
This morning, Uncle Village Chief said that he was going to discuss with the other village officials about repairing my pond, but he didn't say anything after coming up. It might not be settled yet.
Maybe he just greeted the village officials and brought Master Lin to my place. It would depend on the situation. If the village chief did not say anything, then it must be the villagers in the village who did not agree.
Thinking about it, there weren't many people left in the village. Most of them were old and young. They couldn't do heavy farm work.
The younger ones had all gone out to work. Most of the farmland had been abandoned, and only a small number of vegetables were planted.
There were no extra vegetables to sell, so he could save a lot of physical labor. Of course, there were also fruit trees planted in some fields. These fruit trees waited for the fruit merchants to come and collect them after the fruits ripened.
Or they could wait for the people in the city to come here to pick it. After they picked it, they could weigh it and sell it to them at a slightly cheaper price than the ones sold in the city. In the end, he had to leave one or two trees of fruit for his family members to eat when they came back.”
