Chapter 91: Miracles
He still understands the things on the same line, but in the face of the uneven mountain, he is blind even if he is looking for a top river worker to come, which is why those river workers left helplessly after looking at the irrigation map of Bayuan, it is not that they don't help, but they can't verify the data measured by Jiang Wei.
Seeing that the young man didn't continue to speak, Jiang Wei didn't say much, and continued to walk forward, drawing where they needed to dig deep and where they needed help, where they needed to open a ditch, and wrote while digging, and then smashed down the landmarks, until the sky was completely dark, they didn't finish a little work, but this was what made Patriarch Liu happy, as long as this canal was built, they would no longer have dry fields.
It was not safe to stay on the mountain when it was late, Jiang Wei just got off the mountain and the patriarch Liu came over with two old hens and said: "Jiang Xian's nephew, it is said that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, these are two hens that are laying eggs, I heard that you have an elderly grandmother and a young sister at home, just take these two chickens back first, and lay eggs to supplement them with some nutrition." ”
"Then let Uncle Liu break the bank, it just so happens that I was about to catch two little piglets and a few chickens to raise recently. I went to find it. Jiang Wei has no intention of refusing, he is not a court official, he naturally has to be paid for helping these people, if he doesn't take it, others will think that he is incompetent.
"Piglet? Yes, yes, Xiaoqiang's old sow happened to have a litter, he wants to sell it but this thing is not easy to sell, if you want it, let him catch two for you tomorrow. ”
"Well, it's better to catch two good sows."
"No problem, I've prepared a meal at home, let's go eat something first."
"No need, it's getting late, if I go back late, my father will come out to look for it again, let everyone arrive early tomorrow morning, the dam will be completed one day earlier, and you can start the progress of the canal as soon as possible."
"Holo"
Jiang Wei left Shangwan Village with two chickens as he spoke, and when he saw Jiang Wei go away, he was full of worries: "Second uncle, do you say this Jiang Wei is reliable?" He dared to draw conclusions with such a comparison, in case it didn't work out, we wouldn't dig in vain."
Patriarch Liu shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, but it will definitely not be wrong to look at him like that, otherwise the people of Bayuan are like monkeys and will follow his words to dig a ditch." So his ability should be fine. ”
Jiang Laosan was about to ask Jiang Qing to find Jiang Wei, when he saw Jiang Weiti sneaking home with two hens, and seeing the hens Jiang Wei was holding, Jiang Laosan frowned and said: "Just now I heard your grandmother say that you are going to raise pigs and chickens, but I didn't expect you to really catch two chickens and come back, people can't raise anything, where is the thing to feed the chickens?" ”
"Don't you still have a lot of wheat bran and rice husks in your house? It is just used to feed the chickens, Dad tomorrow Patriarch Liu will send two little piglets, you don't dig a ditch tomorrow, build a pigsty with wood, just grandma said that she was idle and had nothing to do, let her feed the pigs, raise chickens, and by the way, the wheat straw of the past two years was broken and put in the pigsty to let them step on the dung. ”
"Stepping on dung? Do you really think that manure can have an effect on reasonable silt? It's whimsical, I've never heard of it in all my years of farming. Jiang Laosan obviously disagreed.
Jiang Wei smiled slightly: "But the silt in the river only became fertile after these things rotted." After all, silt is only a minority, and there are some things that must be changed in order to make the crops in the field have a good harvest. ”
Jiang Laosan obviously didn't believe it and said, "You are not changing, you are making people laugh, your father and I have planted the land all my life, if you want the crops to grow well, you must cultivate the land frequently, weed frequently, and water more to grow well, what you said is useless." ”
"Every era is different, why did we grow corn here in the past, why do we change to wheat now? Why does the grass grow taller and stronger than elsewhere in the place where we often go to the toilet outside the house, it is not because of the effect of feces and urine, so if we want to live well, we must find a way to adapt the status quo. ”
"But as you said, even if we have pigs stepping on dung, there is no place to store the dung, and all the dung and urine will seep into the soil."
"When you build a pigsty, dig a pit in the two big urns that are broken in our house, dig a ditch to bring in the dung and urine."
"What do you think all day, boy? If you let others know, you won't laugh off your big teeth. ”
Jiang Wei waved his hand and said, "A few days ago, some people laughed at me for being crazy and running around with a few pieces of paper. But what about now? Didn't they run to repair the canal? These two chickens were given by Patriarch Liu, and he will send two little piglets tomorrow, and more will be brought after their canal is completed in a few days. Dad, we can't be poor anymore, no one took the lead before, but now I'm going to take the lead, I hope you and the big head can listen to my words, why don't you work together, so that you can live like a person, what do you say? ”
In the past, Jiang Laosan was allowed to pick up the flat shoulder and beat Jiang Wei wherever he was violently, and that kid had never dared to talk to his father like this.
But now is different from the past, although Jiang Wei is as domineering as ever, but he suddenly seems to have opened his mind, he is extremely sophisticated, and there is no problem at all in being the master of the house, but if you want to hand over the power of the family, Jiang Laosan will not agree, but it doesn't matter, if your son has a good idea, let him go, anyway, as long as he doesn't do anything wrong.
Thinking of this, Jiang Laosan still nodded and said, "Okay, let it be up to you for the time being, but if you do something like dealing with King Qi again, you will never be able to do it in the future." ”
King Qi's matter Jiang Laosan is also a chill down his spine when he thinks about it now, but there is no good way, the people don't fight with the officials, let alone this kind of big officials who have stood up to the sky, it is already a miracle that they can live.
Jiang Wei smiled and didn't respond positively, if he doesn't accept it in the world, he will do it, and how to get the opponent down after doing it is something he considers, as for the strength of the other party, it is not within the scope of his consideration for him, of course, even if he thinks about it, it is useless.
As the saying goes, a good snake can't be without a head, and Bayuan has Jiang Wei, a snake head, a canal that seems impossible to outsiders, and it only took two months to get through.
The most rare thing about this canal was that the dam was built not to be washed away by the flood, and the excavation of the boundary mountain, where hundreds of people are digging every day, even if the stone is hard, the progress is very fast.
The patriarch Liu of Shangwan Village, while digging a ditch, organized people to pile up the hemp oak trees that Jiang Wei needed like mountains.
