Qu Lizhen looked at the green tea in front of him, he really couldn't say anything. Is this out to work? Or come out and enjoy it? It's too much to eat and drink, isn't it?!

The second girl over there also hurriedly took the big copper bowl after Xiaohu poured the hot water, poured out half a bowl of water from the sheepskin bag, and put it in the small fire with stones next to it and burned it. Quli Town may ask for water again in a while, and people who are older are most likely to have a dry mouth, and they always have to keep drinking water, not to mention that they have eaten barbecue again!

Speaking of this water, Erya has another headache, so she has to dig a well here for the villagers and the people arranged by the family in the future. Now these locals eat the inland river water full of mud and sand, because it is turbid, the mother-in-law of Quli Town puts the water in the jar and uses alum to draw a circle around the inner wall of the earthen jar, and the water becomes clear after it. It's just that Erya knows very well that this water looks clean to the eyes, but in fact, it is also very harmful to the body, and eating such water for a long time will lead to calcium deficiency, anemia and other diseases.

Thinking of digging a well, Erya learned from Lizhen that there were examples of successful wells here: "Uncle! You don't even have a draught well here! Have you ever drilled a well? ”

Li Zhen tore another bite of chicken breast and was about to chew it, when he heard Erya ask about the well, he replied half-vaguely: "The well!" That's a lot of silver! We can't afford it. But the woodsman I just told you about had dug a deep well here, and it cost hundreds of taels of silver. However, it didn't take long for the well to come out of water, and it had to cost money to find the person who drilled the well again to re-fill the mud and sand. This well! It is blocked by sediment at every turn, and it does not come out of the water. Always looking for a master to re-dig the sand, which is troublesome and costly. Later, the family lived there for three or four years. Just left. After that, we couldn't afford to dig the sand again, and the well was abandoned. If you want, you can use it by digging the sand again, which is much cheaper than digging a new well. ”

I didn't expect there to be such a good thing, Er Ya asked the location clearly, and thought about finding a well as soon as possible to wash up the sediment. until the water is re-emerged. Since the well here will not collapse, then this matter of drinking water will be easy to handle.

Despite the fact that the donkey is slow, it is the time of the day. It's big enough for the guy to run a lot of places. The topography here is estimated to be the most complex area ever seen in the two worlds. In the same place, there are hills, plains, plateaus, mountains, forests, grasslands, rivers, river valleys, deep valleys, etc., and many different landforms coexist.

However, this whole piece of land looks much better than the situation in Erya's former world, one is a brick kiln that has not dug earth to burn bricks. There aren't so many big and deep pits. In the other mountain, there is almost no logging. The trees and some thorns on the mountain can protect the land from being washed away by heavy rains, and mudslides are not as frequent and destructive as later. There is no danger that there are cliffs everywhere due to road construction or other reasons, and there is no danger that gravel will fall at any time.

As for the high-slope plains, although the barren grass and thorns are taller than people at present, it is definitely much easier to open up the land than in the northland. Of course, this wasteland development has its own Daman brought someone to preside over it, after all, he is now a veteran of wasteland. Her and Xiaohu's main task is to make plans for the reclamation. One of the most important tasks was to go to the south and bring back as many of the excellent seeds that were most suitable for growing here, such as potatoes, tomatoes, and Australian cotton, which were brought back by maritime merchants from the sea, and used them as the main agricultural products to be planted after the land was cleared here. In addition, at least half of the livestock should be moved from the north as soon as possible. Prepare well for next year's fertilizer.

As for the river, it is very beautiful, full of gravel and pasture, it should have been a good place to farm, but no one farmed here, so the weeds grew wildly. After asking the puzzle in my heart, I realized that there was a truth by the river in their hometown - they couldn't help flooding. When a rainstorm is a little heavier, the water in the higher places will flow to the lower places, and the water in the lower places will not have time to flow away and the banks of the river will be flooded. The river also seems to be muddy at the moment, but Quli said that after this rainstorm, the river will gradually become clear enough to see the pebbles underneath. It's just that at that time, the river will become so small and shallow that it won't even cover the instep of your feet. One year, on the way to the Mulan paddock with a few friends, it took more than two hours just to play with the stream in the river, and more photos were taken than on the grassland. When it comes to the prairie where there is no water and only a desert, I feel that there is no beauty, and it is better to look at the beauty in the photo or in the camera!

As for the places that are prone to collapse, although she has no good way to deal with them, she can still do it by planting a large area of small-leaved trees that are easy to take root, can take deep roots, and have super soil attachment. When the big trees are in the forest, even if the collapse happens as usual, it can at least reduce the damage of the mudslide, right?!

Because they had traveled too far, it was impossible to rush back that night, so they took local materials, cut some large branches as thick as the arms of a middle-aged man as the main trunk, and cut some small branches as mats. After making a large and a small one, two rows of beds one foot above the ground, everyone took down the two large packages that they were carrying on their horses. Then two people beat wooden wedges on the ground, two people propped up poles, and two people unfolded the tarpaulin tent.

They were skillfully busy, and Quli Town circled around them in a new way, like children, eager to try and play for a while. If you want to hit the wedge, no one will let him be afraid that he will accidentally smash his hands, if you want to hold the pole, no one will let him be afraid that he will not have that strength but will be injured by the bending pole, and if you want to support the tent, you are afraid that he will not be able to control the strength and tear the tarpaulin. An old man and a child seemed to be scurrying around, stunned and unable to touch their hands, and gasping for breath in frustration, and those boys were squeezing each other's eyes and secretly laughing evilly while pretending to be very serious about their work. Xiaohu couldn't see it, so he comforted Qu Lizhen: "Uncle, when I go back, I'll bring you a small tent of mine, it's better than this." There's also a sleeping bag for you! ”

Qu Lizhen immediately squinted happily, his head with gray hair was straight like a drum, but he said politely: "Oops! How good is that? Besides, I'm afraid Uncle won't need this thing! ”

"Doesn't the uncle also have some sheep at home, maybe he will be able to use them in the future!"

"Hey! That uncle is waiting for you to bring it! Quli Town thought too, in the future, this wasteland will be bigger, and the place where sheep can be grazed will definitely be far away from home, so it is impossible to say that there is really a possibility of resting outside for the night.

The day is still very hot, but the night is quite cold, although it is not as exaggerated as the 'wear a cotton jacket in the morning and wear a yarn in the afternoon' somewhere in Xinjiang. But the temperature difference here is also quite large, the sleeping bag they use, is the kind of waterproof and breathable oilcloth, but the inside is sewn with a thick layer of cotton, specially used in late autumn or early spring half-thick cotton sleeping bag, as a result, none of them slept until the middle of the night to call for heat.

However, Quli Town didn't sleep well all night, the old man was very shallow and not cold-tolerant, and the boys next to him slept soundly, and the snoring sound was echoing one after another, so he just closed his eyes and prepared to sleep for a while, and he had to be woken up again and again. But the two little tigers in another small tent slept beautifully!

Also unable to sleep was Wang Xiaolong, who stayed in the government as an official, he was very angry and couldn't sleep. Obviously, the old prefect didn't leave a penny and owed hundreds of thousands of taxes and silver, and they all knew better than themselves, but as a result, as soon as their brother and sister-in-law went out, they were clamoring for funds. Now it's still early before the agricultural tax for the autumn harvest, and even earlier before the commercial tax at the end of the year, where is he going to get money for them?! The workshop needs money, the military room needs money, the torture room needs money, the ceremonial room needs money, and the officials' room needs money, but what kind of money does this house want? You should pay for it, okay?!

Do you save things one by one and wait for yourself to come? All of a sudden, the workshop came out with a project that couldn't be completed for several years, when did this all accumulate?! Those who repair official roads, renovate inns, repair lakes and dams, repair official offices, etc., Xiaolong doesn't know where they came from.

The torture chamber swears that the crime is covered by them, good guy! It's round, it's all about the criminal cases of decades ago. It is also a case of robbery by bandits, of murder by breaking into a house, of beating a dead person, of forcing a good person to become a prostitute, of being caught stealing and denying it, of robbing a woman's daughter as a concubine, of a tenant for not giving rent, and of the occupation of the family's land.

The more Xiaolong thought about it, the more annoyed he became, because he had selected a few people to put in each room, and this began to cause problems?! If they want to get money, they will benefit, and if they don't get money, they will not be damaged, at least give him, the new prefect, a super big problem.

They want to force themselves to regress and withdraw from their territory?! Hum! It's just wishful thinking! If you want to set up the prefect, you have to see if you have the ability, and then you really think that they can make yourself like the old prefect in front of you, and you have to carry a butt of debts with you when you leave?!

You want money, you want to find trouble, okay! If you don't have money, wait and wait, when the house has money and when it will be given! If you want to find something, and find it, let's deal with it one by one, if you want us to be annoyed, God will lose it?! Ha! Wait, nothing else, we'll have a lot of people! If one person handles one thing, we can also handle more than 100 pieces at a time. Do you have what it takes to do so much?! Cut! Don't say that the official despises you!

Xiaolong lay on the bed and hummed self-talk, and finally fell asleep when the day was about to dawn.

Quli Town also closed his eyes and slept for a while when the boys got up and went out to practice martial arts.

In fact, the place where Erya and Xiaohu slept was not far away, and the sound of the boys snoring could be heard by themselves, so they knew that Quli Town must have suffered from it. It's because they didn't think it through, but it was already dark and they couldn't do it anymore to cut down tree branches and build beds and tents. can only let Quli Town sleep a little more at dawn. That's what Er Ya planned, and that's what she did, she let the boys train far away, and by the way, she hunted a few pheasants and came back to stew soup and make breakfast. She and Xiaohu were busy setting up a fire to boil hot water, and the water she used was filtered out of several layers of filters woven with grass, although it did not meet the standard of eating and drinking, but it was still very good to use.
