Chapter 43-Stamp of the Team, Own House!
After dinner, Captain Wang Fuxing went home tipsy.
He was satisfied with his meal at Xu Lingjun's place.
After all, they had tasted a rare delicacy and had even asked for a man's sacred product, medicinal wine.
How could he not be happy?
Uncle Dong was old and had eaten too much, so he went back early.
Guo Pian Zi and the others were left behind to help clean up the house and return the bowls and chopsticks borrowed by the families.
This was how it was in this day and age. If they wanted to treat someone to a meal, they had to borrow bowls and chopsticks from their neighbors.
There was no need to worry when returning the chopsticks. The chopsticks were all the same, and the bowls were all engraved with names.
Don't think that this is some strange story. A bowl even has a name engraved on it?
Yes, this was the era.
After everything was cleaned up, Guo Pian Zi and the others were not in a hurry to go back.
"Old Xu, when do you plan to start building the house?”Guo Shanzi asked with concern. He meant that these brothers wanted to help.
Xu Lingjun smiled." Actually, it's just opening up the woodshed on the right and expanding the house. I don't need your help. You guys have a lot of things to do anyway."”
"How can we not help you with the house?”Guo Pian Zi said anxiously.
"Yes, Brother Xu, we have plenty of manpower.”Li Haisheng and Xiaochuan also said from the side.
Actually, Xu Lingjun really didn't need anyone's help.
He had the space. When the time came, he would directly send the soil into the space and then use his mind to control it to be compressed into mud. He could do it alone, and it would not take much effort.
As for building a house, he had the Craftsmanship Specialization, so it was not a problem.
Although it wasn't a construction skill, building a house with craftsmanship shouldn't be bad.
However, these people were too enthusiastic, so he really couldn't reject them.
After thinking about it, he said," How about this? The cold winter weather is not suitable for building houses now. We'll talk about it when spring comes. When that time comes, I'll definitely ask you for help."”
He was prepared to store the soil slope first and use it directly when the time came.
And the mud that was compressed with his will was harder than a brick.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was afraid of making too much noise, he would have directly demolished the old house.
"That's more like it!" Old Guo said with a smile.
After that, the few of them went home in satisfaction.
The next day, Wang Fuxing did not go back on his word. Not only did he send the stamped note, but he also prepared the wine.
"I know it's not easy to get these herbs.”Wang Fuxing said with a smile as he handed the things to him.
"Alright, I'll inform the captain when the medicinal herbs are gathered.”Xu Lingjun nodded.
In fact, there were all kinds of medicinal herbs in the peach garden space.
However, he would not take it out so easily, lest the other party think that it was easy.
"Haha, that's good, that's good. I'll wait for your good news.”Wang Fuxing smiled and left.
Another ten days to half a month passed. The grassland was covered in snow, and it was simply too beautiful.
Of course, for the people of this era, such weather was not pleasant.
Only Xu Lingjun, who was not afraid of the cold, enjoyed the snow-covered scenery!
Ten days to half a month passed, and he completed a few more weekly check-ins.
It seemed that his luck had run out. Not only did he not obtain anything good, but he was also given some money notes.
The only thing he could do was get a bag of apple seeds.
Xu Lingjun naturally planted it in the peach garden.
"There's an apple to eat now!" He thought happily in his heart.
In fact, other than apples, there were also walnuts and dates in the peach garden space. However, these things could not be taken out, or else there was no explanation.
Of course, it was not a problem for him to try it himself.
Therefore, while others were still happy about eating white flour and white rice, he was already free of food and meat. He could even eat fruits in the middle of winter.
It could be said that life was extremely comfortable.
One day, Uncle Dong came to look for him.
"Lingjun, it's almost the end of the year. The military is preparing to send someone over to pull a batch of horses back. After all, they need more horses to patrol the border areas.”
"Now that it's snowing heavily, we need horses to travel, so we need to bring more horses this time.”
"Get ready here. When the time comes, go to the factory to hand in the horses.”
Xu Lingjun was naturally not worried. He nodded."Alright, I have enough grass here. There won't be any problems.”
"Yes, I saw that you harvested a lot of grass every day, so there's nothing to worry about.”Uncle Dong praised with a smile.
Then, he shook his head and said,"However, I'm afraid that Haisheng and Xiaochuan won't have it easy!"”
"Oh?" Xu Lingjun frowned slightly, but he quickly understood."They don't have enough grass?"
This was probably the only reason.
"Who asked them to be lazy when they usually graze?”Uncle Dong sighed.
It was not that Li Haisheng and the others were lazy, but the task was too heavy. Without anyone to help, the amount of shots every day was really not enough.
One had to know that every family on the ranch would send out their entire family to help cut the grass if they could not work.
Take Guo Pian's family for example. Niu Fengying was very capable. Other than taking care of the children and earning money, she took time off to help with the grazing.
It could be said that he was even more desperate than Guo Pian Zi.
In Li Haisheng and Wang Xiaochuan's families, their parents had their own things to do and were busy earning work points. How could they have the time to help them?
Even if he did, he wouldn't be able to help her.
They could only rely on themselves.
Now that it was winter, there was naturally a lack of grass.
"How about this? I'll ask them to come to my place to get some so as not to delay the matter of feeding the horses.”Xu Lingjun said after some thought.
"How can this be? It's not enough for you to give it to them!”Uncle Dong reprimanded.
"Don't worry, follow me to the stable to take a look.”Xu Lingjun said with a smile.
As he spoke, he brought Uncle Dong to the stable and straw hut to take a look.
