Chapter 153: Method

The weather is still hot and dry, and there is a severe shortage of water in many places, and the signs of drought are becoming more and more vigorous. ⊙ said

In such weather, even if Xia Mei has the heart to sell ice, I am afraid it is unrealistic.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

Mo Xiari made ice, there is no ancient, and then Xia Mei is the only one who comes, whether everyone can believe that she is not a demon or a monster, the key is that this year's heat is not at all compared to previous years, under such conditions, this ice is even more eye-catching.

In case everyone thinks that where did she come from......

Xia Mei was deeply depressed by this thought.

Her purpose is to make a gimmick, sell the ice, start the fame of Tianfu, and successfully move towards the dream of a chain, but now, it seems that this gimmick has risen to the status of a natural disaster......

Xia Mei is not a virgin, she has the deep bad roots of her previous life, she is a little selfish if she is white, and the life and death of others will not have much impact on her.

But at this moment, she was confused, if she really didn't care about the riot caused by selling ice, she would probably be able to send herself to prison......

Sighing depressedly again, glancing at the scorching sun outside the door, and the empty street, Xia Mei felt a deep malice from the world.

For Mao, there is a drought?!

At present, Xia Mei's bitterness is like carrying a strange treasure, but she doesn't dare to show it, which is really depressing and heartbreaking......

Xia Mei has always adhered to the principle of being a low-key person and doing things in a low-key manner. After such a long time, although she has amazed a few handfuls, she also has fame and achievements now, and the most high-profile thing is nothing more than a sense of saving in front of those "suspected" princes.

But it's not good......

In short, Xia Mei has not made great achievements since she crossed over, she herself hopes that she can live an ordinary life, and she is not like other predecessors who have crossed over, and she has to live in ancient times. With a wave of his sleeves, the canopy was gone......

She just wants to be an honest cook. It's okay to open a hotel and be a capitalist......

Look, what a simple wish, but God just doesn't seem to like her. Unwilling to let her achieve her goals.

"Hah...... Why is this happening......"

Finally. After thinking about life countless times. Xia Mei lived up to expectations and came up with a "curve to save the country" solution.

"Wen Hao, I have a letter here, you go and send it to Qin Zhihan. I think this matter still needs to be discussed with the shopkeeper. ”

Xia Mei took out the written letter from her sleeve and handed it to Wen Hao, asking him to send it to Qin Zhihan.

Wen Hao took the letter, wiped his hands on the rag, turned around and went out, after the incident of the jade pendant before, he realized that he had contacted Qin Zhihan.

Therefore, Xia Mei guessed that the guy who gave her the news should be someone sent by Qin Zhihan, although she was surprised and puzzled, how could Qin Zhihan have such a background...... But Xia Mei also silently accepted this setting.

Qin Zhihan doesn't look like an ordinary person...... The mysterious disappearance before, the wounds on that body...... Anyway, I guess I have some background.

Xia Mei didn't think there was anything wrong, but thought that this was useful......

Then I thought with relief that it was time for him to contribute to the restaurant!

The matter of selling ice is known to several core people in the restaurant, such as the Wen family brothers and sisters, such as Liu Quan, Han Bo and others don't know for the time being, after all, this matter is a bit too mysterious, Xia Mei was afraid that everyone would accept incompetence for a while, so she temporarily suppressed it.

On Qin Zhihan's side, since the reconstruction of Tianji Pavilion, he has been busy like a spinning top, running around the world, although he doesn't have to do many things himself, but in order to speed up, he always goes out by himself and does things perfectly.

Red Sleeves had been in Qingshan Town, and Qin Zhihan had also paid a little attention to the incident in the restaurant, not to mention Qin Zhihan's sudden decision to rebuild Tianji Pavilion, and now he was so desperate, it was like running away from something.

Red Sleeves squinted, looking at the tired and stiff back of the horse in front of him, and sighed slightly in his heart.

This person is really confused.

In any case, in such a situation, Red Sleeves naturally paid more attention to the restaurant in Qingshan Town, especially the situation of the lady, knowing that the husband and wife are happy, the family is harmonious, and the restaurant is also prosperous, and even the restaurant in Qingshan Town is invisible, so he put down a little thought.

If he is doing well, he will be fine, but if he is not doing well, will this person be tossed again.

As soon as his mind fell, one of his subordinates behind him greeted him respectfully, whispered a few words in his ear, and handed over a letter by the way.

Red sleeves pursed her lips, looking at the words "Qin Zhihan personally enlightened" on the letter, her eyes were extremely complicated.

With a helpless sigh in his heart, he finally took the letter and urged his horse to run a few steps and keep up with the figure in front.

"Pavilion Master, urgent letter from Qingshan Town."

When Qin Zhihan heard this, he glanced at her in surprise, and then looked at the letter in her hand, the handwriting was extremely familiar, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly took it.

While opening the envelope, he said to Red Sleeves: "You go down, order someone to go to the front to search, and spend the night near again tonight." ”

Redsleeves commanded, "Yes." ”

Then he turned and went down and sent his men.

Qin Zhihan's eyes deepened a little, and he hesitated for a breath before opening the envelope, and the familiar Juanxiu font came into view, and the content of the letter surprised him greatly.

While directing the people to carry their luggage and pack the camp, Red Sleeves swept the pavilion master who had been holding the letter since just now with his residual light, and he was puzzled in his heart.

"What is written in this letter, it makes the pavilion master lose his soul."

Qin Zhihan looked at this paper as thin as a cicada's wings in a daze, because it was stained with thick ink, the weight became heavy, and Qin Zhihan's breathing became cautious.

After a moment of trance, he came back to his senses, looked through the envelope carefully, and finally looked at the end.

"Shopkeeper Qin, I know that you are capable now, but this matter is extraordinary, and it is extremely difficult, if you can't do it. Just reply to me and don't be reckless. ”

"When you are outside, you have to pay more attention to your body, don't ask me to save a lot of money for you, but you don't have a chance to enjoy it, and in the end you are a cheap woman."

Although there are only a few words, the meaning of care in them is true, Qin Zhihan read it several times over and over again before he returned the letter. Put it back in your own place for safekeeping.

He closed his eyes and meditated for a moment with his back against the tree. It wasn't until Red Sleeves delivered the baked food and water to him that he opened his eyes leisurely, and said in a firm and indifferent voice: "You can take someone to solve the rest of the matter, I still have something to do." Tomorrow he will return to the royal city. ”

Redsleeves was stunned. It immediately became clear that it must have something to do with that letter. didn't talk much, just honestly obeyed, and then obediently retreated.

Before, when he had just come back to rebuild the Heavenly Machine Pavilion. Many people were openly and secretly unconvinced, and they couldn't help but have faint opposition voices within their subordinates, and the outside world was even more stormy, but Qin Zhihan quickly secured this position with unparalleled thunderous means, which proved:

He is not the smiling and harmless shopkeeper in Qingshan Town.

Although Red Sleeves and Gray Pigeon grew up with him, they have no love, but when it is time to do their duty, don't lose the rules.

An obedient subordinate is a good subordinate.

Qin Zhihan is very satisfied with the loyalty of the red sleeves and the gray pigeon, and he does not treat them badly, not to mention that the two still have a deep friendship with him, so the core members of Tianji Pavilion are inseparable and have no flaws.

Qin Zhihan, who hurried back to the royal city, began to arrange Xia Mei's game of chess, and for him, although this matter is not, it is not big, and it is just right to use this matter to break into the enemy's side, and his plan is to kill two birds with one stone.

In fact, in that letter, Xia Mei only explained in detail the method of making ice, and also showed her own predicament, by the way, she revealed several of her current ideas and her determination to sell ice, and then urgently expressed her hope that Qin Zhihan could solve this matter.

Xia Mei also had no choice, she originally wanted to go to Lu Ju and go directly to the county magistrate to brush her favorability, and it was excellent to be able to operate this matter within a scope, but it was really unfortunate that Lu Ju had been officially promoted two months ago and went to other state capitals.

It's beyond the reach of the whip.

The matter of making ice was put on hold for the time being, and business in the restaurant was deteriorating due to the weather, even if Xia Mei withdrew from a series of foods such as cold noodles and cold soup, but because there was no ice, the effect was not good, and the effect was little.

The price of grain has been vaguely rising, and people are a little panicked, the new county magistrate is simply miserable, why did he encounter such a thing as soon as he took office......

When he was anxious, his subordinate officials brought good news, that there was a village under his jurisdiction that had developed a new way of diverting water, which could temporarily solve the problem of grain in the current season.

The official went to Dashan Village, and he didn't talk nonsense, he went directly to the village chief's house, and under the leadership of the village chief's son, he went to see their water diversion method, and he was able to directly lead water to the field, which was really saving energy.

If the water flow can be reasonably managed and restricted, then the possibility of preserving this season's grain is very great!

That's great news.

Whether it is for the farmers who are worried about it right now, or for the county magistrate who is worried about their performance, it is a rare piece of good news.

The village chief called Wu Song, and after seriously asking about the selection of boiling water, the open source of channels, etc., the official left satisfied.

Although this seems to be a simple method, but calling Wu Song to go through the process can be regarded as recognizing his face, this is a big credit, and it will definitely be beneficial in the future, so now it is to give Wu Song a preventive injection or something.

Although Wu Song was surprised for a moment, after thinking about the cause and effect, he still honestly and unreservedly made some precautions, after all, it is also a good thing for the benefit of people's livelihood, and Wu Song will never refuse.

Thinking that it was time to water the crops in the field, this year somehow the weather was exceptionally hot, it had not rained for a long time, and the field had to be watered almost once every two or three days.

Fortunately, although Xia Mei rarely cultivates on her own, she has a lot of agricultural knowledge, but she has more than Wu Song.

So Xia Mei cocked her tail and said quite proudly: "Who told us to send ...... brains?"

The contribution of the brains is this complete irrigation system, which intercepts the flow of water from the upper reaches of the river and spreads it down everyone's ridges to their own fields one by one, so as to prevent everyone from following suit and digging the river base after seeing it.

It affected the river at some time, but Xia Mei didn't want to be blacklisted by the village chief......

So just send people to the door, as long as everyone makes an opening from the edge of their field and digs a ditch as it is, and the water will come in.

But there is another problem, which is that the field is different from the earth.

The fields are planted with rice that has been inseparable from water for more than a month, and the fields are planted with dryland crops, but they cannot be directly brought to the fields like rice.

In this regard, Xia Mei also thought of a way, which was to dig a pit and bury a big wooden plate in the place where water was brought in from the ground.

…… It's kind of a mini reservoir......

In this way, everyone does not need to go to the river to fetch water, which greatly reduces the amount of exercise, and the village names are also appreciative people, and everyone has done this, and they are simply embarrassed not to use it.

As a result, the reputation of the Wu family and his wife was unmatched for a while.

Wu Song always smiled faintly at this, he didn't have much affection for the people in this village, and there were only a few people who were good to him, so he just remembered it.

For others, there is no need to socialize.

With this move, Wu Song naturally knew that Xia Mei's original intention was to reduce his labor, so he would come up with these ways to improve.

It was also to reduce the trouble for himself, so the village names were taken into account at the beginning.

Wu Song was right, Xia Mei did design this very primitive irrigation system in order to reduce the burden on her husband, you must know that in the previous life, these were basic.

It's just that this year is special, the weather is several times hotter than in previous years, Xia Mei, who comes and goes to the restaurant, doesn't know that the people in the village have been worried for many days, she only sees her husband carrying water, it's really hard, so she came to improve it.

Originally, it wasn't a big deal for her to come, she was used to the reality of the people in the village, so she didn't do anything, just did it silently, and did her part, digging the waterway to meet the needs of almost everyone near her field.

As for the rest, she is not a virgin......

Dig it yourself!

Still, she underestimated the impact of the matter.

The villagers are not stupid, but they have rarely experienced such a big drought before, so they have no experience, and now that they see the benefits, they naturally follow suit.

The village chief also breathed a sigh of relief, although the water in the river is decreasing, but at least he can hold on to this season's grain, which is a great luck.

In this way, the village chief, who was already worried about not being able to eat, was finally able to walk around again after lying for half a month, and the village chief's family was extremely grateful to the Wu family, and specially came to the door to thank him, Wu Song was indifferently polite and refused to thank him.

The other party had to keep his kindness in his heart, thinking that in the future, he would definitely have to move around more. (To be continued.) )
