After clarifying the matter with Wang Fu and his wife, Li Xin went back to Sanshi Town first.

Wang Fu and his wife are very familiar with the people in Zhuangzi, and there should be no problem in finding a suitable person to be in charge. As long as the person is selected, Wang Fu and his wife can explain it, and they can pack up their things and leave.

It's not a big deal, Wang Fu and his wife will naturally handle it, and Li Xin doesn't have to keep an eye on it.

A few days later, Wang Fu asked someone to bring a message to Li Xin, saying that the candidate had been decided, and asked Li Xin to go to Zhuangzi to have a look. Li Xin got the message and went to Zhuangzi.

The candidate chosen by Wang Fu and his wife is named Meng Liu, who is about thirty years old, this person Li Xin has some impressions, and he is an honest crop master. Not to mention anything else, he is a good hand at growing crops, and he is honest, so he is indeed a good candidate. Since it was decided by Wang Fu and his wife, thinking about it, this Meng Liu is indeed a good person, and Li Xin didn't say much.

called all the big guys in Zhuangzi together, and told everyone that Meng Liu had become the new steward of Zhuangzi, and this matter was over.

Wang Fu and his wife have also packed their things and can set off at any time. Li Xin first took Wang Fu and his wife to live in the county seat, thinking that he would leave early tomorrow morning.

When he arrived in Nanbai County, he first took Wang Fu and his wife to live in the backyard of Yipinzhai, and Li Xin went to find Shi Yayu. Zhu Yong had only been to the road to the wasteland once, so he was naturally not familiar with the road. It's such a long journey, if no one takes it with you, I'm really afraid that I won't know where I'm going. The coachman in Shi Yayu's family is more familiar with the road, so Li Xin also wants to borrow the coachman to lead the way.

When he arrived at Shi Yayu's house, Li Xin explained his intention, and Shi Yayu responded happily.

"I haven't been out of the house lately, and I don't have to use a carriage, since Miss Li is in need, I'll take him there!" Shi Yayu said with a smile.

"I'll thank you in advance, I can't find anyone who is familiar with this road for a while, so I can only come to find Shi Yayu." It was really not easy to find someone who was familiar with this section of the road at once, and since the coachman of Shi Yayu's family knew the road, she also came to the door.

"It's not a big deal, it's just one person, Miss Li wants to use it, just take it away." Shi Yayu waved his hand indifferently. followed Li Xin out of the house, and Li Xin paid him very well. People like the Li family should naturally make good friends, such a trivial matter is harmless to themselves, but others will admit it.

"I'll leave early tomorrow morning, so I'll come and pick up someone early tomorrow morning!" Li Xin sat down at Shi Yayu's house, and then said goodbye and left.

Early the next morning, Li Xin's master and servant and Wang Fu and his wife got into the carriage and went to Shi Yayu's house. The group sat in two carriages, and the carriage in which Li Xin's master and servant sit, as usual, Zhu Yong came to catch the carriage. And the carriage where Wang Fu and his wife were riding was Ma Long driving the car.

When they arrived at Shi Yayu's house, Shi Yayu's family had already gotten up early, waiting for Li Xin and the others! The coachman's name was Bai Wen, and he was already waiting. Li Xin didn't have too many greetings with the people of the Shi family, and he had to travel so far! Let Baiwen take Ma Long's place, and Ma Long also sat on the wheel and took a good look at the road.

This time, you can find someone to lead the way, but you can't always find someone to lead the way, so you still have to let Zhu Yong and Ma Long recognize the way.

After saying goodbye to Shi Yayu's family, Li Xin and his entourage began to hurry.

"Miss, where are we going to live in the wasteland this time? It can't be living in a wasteland, right? Along the way, Caiyun asked.

"The question of where to live, let's go over there and take a look! If there is a suitable village in the vicinity that can rent a house for us to live in, we will live. If you can't, live on the other side of the wasteland! The wagons have already brought tents, and we will not sleep in the wilderness. Li Xin smiled slightly.

This time I went to the wasteland, and I really had to find a few places first, and then I would first reclaim them and build some houses. Otherwise, there is always no place to live, and it is very inconvenient.

Fortunately, it is not difficult to build some houses first.

"Caiyun, you too, what is wrong with the things arranged by Miss, what else are you worried about! Anyway, we can always live and eat well. Caixia smiled and glared at Caiyun.

"I'm just asking casually, I know that Miss will arrange it well, but I'm also a little worried. There are some people in the wasteland who can't go to the village and can't have a store. ”

"Indeed, Caiyun's worries are not unreasonable, there are indeed some people who can't go to the village and can't go to the store." Li Xin sighed. Now that the wasteland is still just a wasteland, it will take a lot of time to make the land lively. However, she firmly believes that it will definitely be lively.

However, there is a lot of manpower and material resources to be spent in the meantime. However, it's still a good deal! If you really buy good land and good land, not to mention that everyone cherishes good land and good land, it is almost impossible to buy such a large piece of land that is connected together. Moreover, if it has been reclaimed, where would such a large area be taken down with such a small amount of money.

When we got to the wasteland, it was noon two days later. When Li Xin and his entourage arrived at the place, they first simply ate some food they had brought with them, and then set up a tent at the foot of the mountain. The tent was made, and the group is now living here.

After the tent was ready, Li Xin took Wang Fu and his wife for a walk on the wasteland.

"It's not difficult to reclaim this wasteland, because there are no tall trees, and the roots won't be very deep." Wang Fu said as he walked, "However, seeing that the grass and trees on it don't grow well, it shouldn't be good to grow crops, I don't know what Miss thinks?" ”

"It's true that the grass doesn't grow well because of the soil, but I can improve the soil, so I don't have to worry too much about it. For now, it is better to build some simple houses and find someone to reclaim the wasteland. And the embankment must also be done as much as possible, otherwise it will be bad when the tide rises. ”

"That's right. However, in fact, it is not necessary to build a house on wasteland, and there is no embankment now, and it is not easy to build a house. I am afraid that before the dam is built, the tide of the turbid river will suddenly rise. Since the surrounding mountains now belong to the young lady, it is better to build the house on the mountain, at the foot of the mountain or halfway up the mountain. It's all convenient. ”

Hearing Wang Fu say this, Li Xin thought about it seriously. Wang Fu is right, if the embankment has not been built, and the water of the turbid river spreads into the wasteland, then if the houses are on the wasteland, it will have some impact. It would have been better if it had been built on a mountain. Although it may not be convenient, it is safer.

"Brother Wang is right, then some of the first houses will be built from the foot of the mountain to the halfway up the mountain! If you go any further, it's not very convenient. ”

"The eldest lady has thought it through." Sister-in-law Wang smiled and flattered.

"Sister-in-law Wang said this, on the surface, she was praising me, but in fact, she was not praising Brother Wang. This construction was obviously proposed by Brother Wang! Li Xin laughed as he spoke. Wang Fu and his wife are really completely different in temperament, but such a marriage with complementary personalities can last for a long time!

Wang Fu is a relatively quiet person, and on weekdays, he doesn't talk much if he can. But Wang's sister-in-law is a very hearty person, and she usually likes to talk and laugh, so she is very popular in Zhuangzi. It's not that Wang Fu's popularity is not good, it's just that there are not many people who are so silent and generally close to him.

"The eldest lady is too, since it's a good word, take it well! I have to say that. Sister-in-law Wang smiled helplessly.

"Then Brother Wang, sister-in-law Wang, you can see which places are suitable for building houses, and I will go to the mountains to fetch some water. We're running out of water. Li Xin said suddenly.

"Is there water on this mountain?" Sister-in-law Wang suddenly asked.

"Naturally, there is water, we saw it the last time we came. The water flow is quite large, and if you build a canal, you don't have to worry about not having clean water to drink if you live here in the wasteland in the future. Li Xin said with a smile. The water in the river is a little muddy, and it is okay to irrigate the fields, but if it is used for drinking, it will feel a little dirty after all.

"Actually, Miss doesn't have to be so troublesome at all, although the water of this turbid river looks a little muddy, it is not that you can't drink it. Dig a puddle on the shore not too far from the river, wait slowly, and when the water in the puddle gradually clears, you can drink. Wang Fu said.

"Yes! How did I forget that I could do this! Li Xin suddenly woke up. Indeed, after heavy sand filtration, the water can indeed be cleaner. I remember that in my previous life, there was also a river in the village, but under normal circumstances, the river water is not very clean. The people who worked by the river would dig a deeper pit not far from the river, not very deep, but with water.

When the water in the pit gradually clears up, you can drink it. When I was young, I didn't know how it worked, so I just dug a hole by the river like an adult.

Sometimes, it's not just to drink water, but to dig holes, which can be regarded as some fun in childhood!

This method is also feasible, after all, the water of this era has not been polluted too much, at most, there is mud into the turbid river, so the turbid river will become a little turbid. In fact, the water in the turbid river is not very dirty, and it can be quoted if it is filtered cleanly.

However, this way is to get it when there are few people. If there are many people, it is better to build a canal and bring water from the mountains here. R1152
