Yizhou City's large-scale operation to eliminate snails has finally been vigorously launched.

After nearly half a year of epidemic prevention publicity and training, more and more people believe in the dangers of snails.

As soon as the autumn grain was put into storage, a snail extermination operation was launched.

The biggest hazard in the city is the two artificial rivers with gentle water flow, the Jieyuxi and Jinshui rivers.

The upstream is a landscape, and the water flow is clear and clean. When I arrived in the lower reaches of the southeast, the left and right banks were all women who washed and chose vegetables, and I thought that the transformation would be difficult, but as soon as the renovation project was announced, the people on both sides of the river cooperated one after another, and some wanted to be corrected and were also scolded by the neighbors.

There are also a few nail households who are not afraid of death, in order to protect the shacks by the river, they want to die or live, but it is not Zeng Wu's turn to be a villain, more than a dozen men and women who suffer from big belly disease, sit at the door, they really become the plague gods, and they have to receive subsidies and start moving.

What if I don't have a place to live?

The government has thought about it for you, there are resettlement houses in the south city, all brick houses, detached households, can be rented or bought, and the demolition households are all half price, you have a title deed, and if you have a title deed, you can change to a new house of the same area for free, and you don't need to pay a boy.

In the city, rivers are being changed, ponds are filled, lime is sprinkled, tea cakes are sprinkled, and public toilets are built.

In the effective area and the countryside, the most common project is to level the ditch to change the ditch, and the work of adjustment and persuasion has been done in advance, and those involving the loss of land are either reduced in taxes or reduced in labor, or persuaded large households to contribute some more strength......

One state and nine counties acted together, and the work was in full swing.

Tugen in Waqiao Village lost 16 mulberry trees because of the ditch change, and his mother-in-law was so heartbroken that she wanted to fall to the ground and sprinkle it, but Tugen scolded loudly and died, and went to work quickly.

"Sixteen trees, what will Sambo eat next year?"

"Long hair, short knowledge, sixteen mulberry trees, for a whole child, this is a more profitable deal."

"What is the future, you don't need money to study, you don't need money to eat, he is now half a laborer at home."

Tugen spat out thick phlegm and patted his son's head: "You have to be able to read, don't be blind, Ge Laozi is willing to drink thin every day, wait to pick up snails, don't use your hands, chopsticks, use your pocket, do you hear it, go." ”

A family of three went out, and the corner was divided into three directions, the soil roots went to dig ditches and change channels, and the mother-in-law went to lime, and she was not tired of living, as long as she splashed it with water, but the ash was big, and she began to wrap her head and face with a cloth towel while walking. Quanzi carried a bamboo basket to pick up snails.

His family assigned a task of twenty catties, if you can't pick it up, you have to use millet to make up, and if you pick up more, there is a reward, which is the reward of the old wealth of the Zhou family in the wine shop, his father died of a big belly disease, and the whole son is ready to pick up more, and it is best to change the pound of water and wine for the father.

When I arrived at Xiaozhang River, there were already many friends, most of them on the boat, paddling with poles, shouting and shouting.

Quanzi didn't play with them, took out the bamboo wire net pocket from the basket, and began to scrape along the stones by the river, the net bag is specially made, one side is flat, one side is flat, the other side is flat, it is very convenient to fish, basically will not let the snail run into the water.

The friends went down the river, he went upstream, gradually moving away, and the snails in the basket gradually increased, but he was a little tired to bend his knees forward, and he had to fish up a dozen and straighten up.

After fishing for most of the day, when he straightened up again, he found that there was a donkey not far ahead, with a full saddle and sheath, and was grazing leisurely, but there was no donkey rider in sight.

He was looking around, and a voice sounded behind him: "Find so-and-so." ”

He was so startled that he almost fell into the river, and in a panic he held on with one hand, and then he crawled on the ground, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was a scholar with a clear beard, and there was a good smell of wine on his body.

He didn't know who the person in front of him was, but he knew that he must be a scholar, remembering his father's advice, he was about to read, and he had to be polite to the reader, so he simply fell on his stomach and knocked his head down.

"Hello sir."

The scholar was stunned, he didn't expect to receive a big gift from this kid.

"Hurry up, kowtow wherever you see someone."

The scholar squatted down, carrying the basket and turning over the snails slightly, and there was a lot of black and swarthy water, which was four or five catties.

"Little brother, why are you alone, why don't you join them?"

Quan Zi followed the scholar's gesture and pouted: "There are many of them, noisy, this snail is scared and rolls into the water." ”

"Do you know why you catch snails?"

"Yes."

Quanzi shook the basket proudly, "There are vampires in here." ”

"Then are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, it's not in disguise, besides, I use a pocket, chopsticks, and no hands."

The scholar smiled: "Do you still know disguise? ”

"Of course I know, wicked people have to go through hell, hungry ghosts, and animal paths, but this vampire will have to be in six disguises to really suck blood, and if you destroy this snail, you can't do it in disguise."

The scholar nodded, and then asked, "You are touching the nails here, and this river looks very dirty, so will it be cured?" ”

"Yes, the chief Qigong said that he would first arrange for a few days, and then talk about a good day with several villages upstream, and at the same time release the water from the lakes and ponds, saying that there are thirty lakes and ponds with water to ensure that the water is as clear as blue."

The scholar was stunned: "Lake and pond water, what kind of water is it?" ”

"The lakes and ponds for pickling bamboo are all lime water for paper."

Quanzi became excited, and gestured: "On that day, the whole village must be dispatched, the fish, shrimp, and turtles in this river can't stand the persecution of the lake and pond water, and they all jump to the surface of the water, and they can catch a lot of fish if they stand still. ”

"Okay, okay."

The scholar got up, unplugged the wine gourd stopper in his hand, and wanted to take a sip.

As if he was facing a great enemy, he hurriedly stopped: "Wash your hands before eating and after using the toilet, and you can't eat without washing your hands." ”

Seeing that his face was serious, the scholar smiled, but really stuffed the plug back again, "Tell me, how did your family prevent the epidemic?" ”

Quanzi thought for a while and said, "My mother used to do laundry in the pond, but now she can't, and the neighbors on the left and right have dug a well, which is close to my house." The water is sweet, but now you are not allowed to drink raw water, you have to boil it and drink it. Also, I use paper to wipe my butt at home. ”

"Very good, your house is not far away, can you take a certain person to have a look?"

"Not far away, sir, please."

Seeing that the little guy got up and patted his ass and was about to leave, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Won't this delay your work?" ”

"Don't delay, Dad said, Mr. are all distinguished guests, what do you say to have friends...... I can't say it, and my dad can't say it either. ”

"It's a pleasure to have friends from afar."

"Yes, that's it, I'm going to study after the New Year, and I will definitely be able to speak better in the future."

The scholar walked over and led the donkey, and when he saw the little one's face of envy, he smiled and asked, "Do you want to ride?" ”

Jeonko shook his head: "No, you can't dirty Mr.'s mount." ”

"How old are you?"

"Ten...... Eleven, after the New Year, it will be eleven. ”

"It's amazing, I can help my family at the age of ten."

"What's so great about this, I can do a lot of work, sell cocoons to catch up with the Jin City, I've been to Yizhou City several times, I can carry thirty pounds."

"What is your name?"

"Quanzi, my surname is Zhao."

The two of them walked slowly along the river bank towards the village, talking as they walked, and laughter rang out from time to time.
