Chapter 29: On the Importance of Building Roads
Yi Jiang looked at Gu Yao and said, "Then what is your focus?" Do you want to go to heaven or to go to earth? ”
Gu Yao was embarrassed, and gave Yi Jiang a big and bright smile, and said flatteringly: "Daddy, I know you are the best, I just want to say, can I follow you up the mountain with Yi Ranchen in the future!" ”
Yi Ranchen must be a crow's mouth.
It must be, otherwise why wouldn't my father agree, obviously my father listened to her before.
"Hmph, what do you think?" Yi Jiang felt that this girl really couldn't get used to it, and if she was used to it, she really had to go to heaven and earth, so she had to teach her a good lesson.
"I think Daddy is the best, he must have agreed." Gu Yao said with a smile.
"I see, you are just idle and panicked, tomorrow I will take you to your Aunt Wang and let her teach you to be a female celebrity." Yi Jiang said with a straight face on purpose.
Gu Yao was startled, and hurriedly said: "Don't, Daddy, you know, I have no fate with this thing of Nuhong, I see, I'd better go up the mountain to find out how to make a fortune!" ”
As he spoke, he looked at Yi Jiang pitifully, and blinked his big watery eyes.
Yi Jiang suddenly couldn't stand it, and the thought of teaching the other party just now was gone, he nodded Gu Yao's forehead with a smile, and said, "You, if you want to go up the mountain, go up the mountain yourself, you are not allowed to go with Brother Chen." ”
Saying that, no matter what the expression on Gu Yao's face was, he went out to the new house.
Alas, he still can't give up!
As soon as Gu Yao heard this, his two shoulders instantly drooped, and he sighed heavily.
I'm so disappointed, I'm so disappointed, does Daddy have another girl doll in his heart?
Woo woo, so sad, so sad!
After being sad, Gu Yao silently took out a seed, which she asked Yi Ranchen when she was at Yi Ranchen's house, it was a green vegetable seed.
The wood-based ability slowly moved from the position of the dantian in the direction of the palm, and the function Gu Yao used this to spawn was not the first time, but it was the first time to spawn seeds directly from the palm.
A small sprout slowly emerges from the seed, gradually expands, and then becomes a verdant green vegetable.
Gu Yao smiled and looked at the green vegetables lying quietly in the palm of his hand and sniffed it.
Well, the smell of greens!
Now that the weather is cold, there are no other vegetables in the field except some cabbage, and after a while, the cabbage in the field will be harvested and made into pickled cabbage.
When it's really winter, you can only eat some of these pickles.
Hey, vegetables contain a lot of water and some nutrients that the human body needs, can't you eat them this year?
Gu Yao looked at the window and began to feel sad.
Every winter, vegetables will freeze to death, and she used to be in the mountains, because there is space, so in winter she can still eat fresh vegetables that are as delicious as freshly picked.
But now.
Because she followed her father home temporarily, she didn't collect the vegetables on the mountain at all, and now they are estimated to be rotten, and her father didn't get vegetables at all when he split up.
It's too late to plant now.
Although she can give birth, she needs seeds, and how to explain this vegetable that appeared out of thin air to Daddy?
The matter of Huiwu has been fooled because of the existence of a 'master', but this is the ability to give birth.
If it is not my race, its heart will be punished!
She didn't want to use this to test her father's trust in her.
Forget it, forget it, now there is more than a month before the New Year, and then we will talk about it.
It's the road into the village, oops, I forgot to tell my dad just now.
Gu Yao's little face wrinkled, went out, locked the door, and looked for her father.
For such an important matter, it's better to tell my dad earlier, and I don't know if I can fix it this year.
Also, I don't know what kind of charter is used to build a road here, and how much silver is required?
Yi Jiang didn't know that Gu Yao was about to have a big event coming to him, and at this time he came to the new house.
Seeing everyone working in full swing, he found Yi Dashan, who was busy working, and said with a smile: "Dashan, I have solved the matter of green bricks, and they can send it over tomorrow morning at the earliest." ”
Originally, these were all contracted to Yi Dashan, but because Yi Dashan had other things to do, he let Yi Jiang go.
"Okay, the original green bricks can last until the day after tomorrow, as long as they are sent over in the morning of the day after tomorrow." Yi Dashan said.
"Dashan, come over here and have a look."
Yi Dashan heard someone call him, so he said to Yi Jiang: "Brother Jiang, I'll go and get busy first." ”
"Go, go." Yi Jiang smiled and waved his hand, then rolled up his sleeves, and planned to work.
When Gu Yao went out, she lagged behind Yi Jiang's efforts to make a cup of tea, so when she arrived at the new house, Yi Jiang was working hard.
Seeing this, Gu Yao couldn't disturb the other party, and the road was built in a hurry, but it was not in a hurry to say that it was not in a hurry.
After all, the people here have been here for so many years.
Forget it, she went to find Yi Ranchen to play.
As soon as Gu Yao's footsteps turned, he turned to the house not far away, poked his little head into the door, and saw Yi Ranchen squatting in front of the vegetable patch, holding a small wooden stick to write and draw there.
"Yi Ranchen."
Yi Ranchen turned his head and saw Gu Yao jumping in, stood up with a smile and said, "Gu Yao, why are you here?" ”
"Come and play with you!" Gu Yao looked at the place where Yi Ranchen was squatting just now, and then said, "You are learning to write!" Then his face was full of disgust.
It's so ugly!
"Yes." Yi Ranchen looked at the crooked words, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said, "This is what Uncle Yi Jiang taught me, and it's my own name." ”
Gu Yao squatted down, pointed to a word and said, "You wrote this 'ran' wrongly, there is one less stroke here, one more stroke here, and the remaining two are right, they are so ugly." ”
Yi Ranchen directly ignored the words behind Gu Yao, squatted beside her excitedly, and said, "Gu Yao, you are literate!" ”
"Of course, when I was on the mountain, the master taught me to read, how about it, do you need me to teach you!" Gu Yao tilted his head and said proudly.
"Yes, yes, yes." Yi Ranchen nodded his head happily.
In the past, my grandfather had plans to send him to the school, but a year's bundle was too expensive, and their family couldn't afford it at all.
Now it's okay, Gu Yao can read and write, and he is willing to teach him, Gu Yao is really a very good, very good person!
Although sometimes he is a little willful, it doesn't matter, he is an older brother and is willing to tolerate his sister.
Gu Yao stood up and wiped the ground in front of him with his foot, then wrote the words 'Yi Ranchen', and then said to the people around him: "This is your name, you can just follow it." ”
"Yes." Yi Ranchen looked serious and first observed the word 'ran' that he had written wrongly, and then slowly wrote down the word with a wooden stick.
Well, it's just a little ugly, not as good as what Gu Yao wrote.
But it doesn't matter, it's good if he practices more in the future.
"This time it's written correctly, you can practice slowly, and I'll teach you five words a day in the future, how about it?" Gu Yao said.
"Okay." Yi Ranchen smiled and nodded, "Then will we learn today?" ”
"If you want to learn, I can start teaching you today." Gu Yao didn't expect Yi Ranchen to be so studious, and suddenly felt a little funny.
Yi Ranchen moved a small chair for Gu Yao and said to her, "Gu Yao, you sit." ”
Gu Yao didn't refuse, but she first smoothed the ground, then wrote down five words, and said to Yi Ranchen: "These words are 'master', 'mother', 'father', 'brother', 'sister', you can come word by word." ”
"Okay." After speaking, Yi Ranchen stopped talking, and began to write with a serious face.
Gu Yao watched Yi Ranchen write for a while and then yawned, his face was full of sleepiness, and he glanced at the other party before writing the second word, so he simply leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.
In the small courtyard, although there is no sound of speaking, there is a feeling that the years are quiet.
In the evening, Gu Yao told Yi Jiang about building the road.
Yi Jiang frowned and said, "Yao'er, building a road is not an easy task, it costs a lot of silver. ”
"Daddy, I know that it costs a lot of money to build roads, but don't you think it will be much easier to build roads?"
"Look, it rained some time ago, and it's not easy to walk on this road, so if there's something urgent, won't it be delayed?" Gu Yao gave Yi Jiang an analysis little by little.
"Also, Daddy, don't we have a store in the county, it can't be empty, besides, aren't you going to use it for business, I've thought about it before, and I plan to use it to sell wine and chestnuts."
"Wine?" Chestnut he can understand, there is it in the mountains, but wine?
"Yes, it's wine." Gu Yao smiled and said, "Daddy, I've tasted it before, but that kind of wine tastes very light, and it's completely different from the one that the master drinks." ”
"I will also make that kind of spirit, but it will take time, and I believe that the wine will be easy to sell by then, so this road will be very important."
"Yao'er, you haven't done business and don't know the difficulties." Yi Jiang sighed: "Even if you know how to make wine, you don't know if there are many people who buy it." ”
"Also, the spirits you mentioned, what if the people in the county can't get used to drinking it!"
As soon as this question came out, Gu Yao was also silent, and she didn't know how to answer.
However, "Daddy, no matter whether this wine is good or not, this road must be repaired, and the master told me that if you want the village to be rich, you must first build the road, and only when the road is open, will people come in." ”
"If someone comes, then there will be money to be made." Gu Yao still didn't give up, "Daddy, our village is obviously so close to the county seat, there is no reason why we would be so poor, aren't they all from this road disaster?" ”
Yi Jiang thought that in those years, because of the heavy snow, the mud road was frozen, and Brother Lin Mu and his family fell off the cliff because the road was uneven and the car skidd.
If it were replaced by a concrete road, would this not be the case?
He wasn't sure about that.
"So, tomorrow Daddy will go and ask the village chief, what do you think?" Yi Jiang thought about it and said to Gu Yao.
As soon as he heard that there was a door, Gu Yao nodded hurriedly and said with a smile: "En."
