Chapter 69: Duplicity
Time flies in the blink of an eye. When Yidi came to the hottest midsummer of the year, Lin Tian now only relied on a basin of cold water from a deep well every day to "continue his life", as if he went out to kill him.
Nowadays, wells are also used in the cities of Yidi, and it is quite inconvenient to eat mountain spring water. Even if the water from the mountain spring is attracted by the channel, the residents of the city have to queue up for water, and the flow of the mountain spring water is also unstable. When the amount of water is good, it is only a moment for a person to take a load of water, if it is a dry season, the amount of water becomes extremely unstable, and it will be a very torturous thing to take water.
In this midsummer, what Lin Tian couldn't stand the most was that even the water flowing into Fucheng was hot, and if you wanted to drink cold water, you had to put the mountain spring water you took in a cool place to cool down. Lin Tian, who was tortured by the scorching summer, was miserable. The extreme weather in Yidi was once criticized by Lin Tian, but just complaining can't change anything, so there is a shortage of water in the deep wells today.
Draught does not forget the well digger, digging a well is not an easy thing, digging a well is quite time-consuming. The main reason is that the production technology of Yidi is still in its infancy, and the efficiency of doing things is quite slow, if there is no Lin Tian's powerful memory bank brain, I am afraid that the level of Yidi's survival technology will be even lower.
Take digging a well as an example, it takes more than half a month to dig a well in the ground, and digging a well requires digging out the soil below again and again. In addition to being artificial, there are two ropes tied to people, and a basket made of bamboo is tied to a container for picking soil. The top is pulled by people, and the soil is pulled up and discharged again and again, which is so inefficient.
If Lin Tian hadn't come out to check the progress once, I'm afraid he wouldn't know that Yidi was digging a well in such a bulky way. With Lin Tian's help, the manufacturing bureau made wooden rollers to save manpower. The wooden roller is a simple use of the principle of pulley, which can not only be used to dig wells now, but also can be tied to the rope of the gallows to carry water, which is very convenient.
Since the well was dug up, it was a compulsory course for Lin Tian to bring a bucket of cool well water from the well every day to soak his feet. The taste was so uncomfortable that Lin Tian was suddenly in a cool world.
Since the beginning of spring this year, the other two departments have followed suit after seeing the powerful effect of the ghost party's sub-division system. At the same time, the abolition of the clan and the construction of the village were also carried out at the same time, and the ghost party was like a pioneer, providing a powerful reference blueprint for those who came after.
The situation of the second department was a little different from that of the ghost side at that time, and after the second department issued two decrees at the same time, there was an uproar in the territory. The uproar was not divided into different parts, but on the contrary, the public was very supportive of the decree, and anyone could see the benefits. What makes people dissatisfied is the system of building villages in the back, and the two tribes at that time were still very complete, and they had not yet faced the situation of the light pole patriarch of the ghost side at that time, so the people were puzzled, especially the patriarchs did not support it.
The patriarchs of the second tribe petitioned one after another to persuade them. Another difference between Wuheng and Soto and the Ghost Fang tribe is that there are elder groups in both departments, and they are all prestige people, and they are also old-fashioned people. With their joining, the petitioning team suddenly became huge, and almost let the leader of the second department step down for a while.
The leader of the second department, who was facing an emergency, was puzzled and deeply felt the pressure at the same time, even Wu Heng's intelligent duo did not understand the key. Obviously, he did it according to the ghost side's approach, but why did he encounter such huge resistance.
The two of them who couldn't figure it out planned to consult Lin Tian, the planner of this strategy. Now that the three departments are connected to each other, it is convenient to travel to and from each other, and Wu Yao found Lin Tian that night, and Lin Tian knew the reason as soon as he heard it.
Tell Wu Yao, "If you let a child who can't walk steadily, he will definitely fall big." ”
"You're saying the time is not right." Wu Yao understood it at one point, and instantly figured out the key to it, maybe the second department only saw the decree on the surface of the ghost party, and didn't notice the specific situation of its implementation, so something went wrong.
Lin Tian nodded, "That's right, the Heavenly Alliance only issued a decree of division and stratification at that time, but after that, there was a large number of people in the clan who left their places of residence to go to the wilderness to open up wasteland. At that time, like you, those patriarchs came to complain, so they thought of a way to build a village. ”
Wu Yao nodded, with an expression that was the same. Lin Tian continued: "If you mention the matter of building a village now, these patriarchs will definitely not agree, you have to let them know that this is the inevitable result, and then they will know that this is actually for their good." At that time, they may take the initiative to come to the door and beg you to mention the matter of building a village, and at that time, the time will be ripe, and it will be difficult to do it. ”
"Hehehe......" Wu Yao covered her mouth and chuckled. No wonder my grandfather said that you are a little slippery head, and you are not very old next year, but you are a ghost, okay, I am going back. ”
Lin Tian smiled embarrassedly, in front of Wu Yao, he never knew how to write the two words angry. I had to secretly slander the old man Wu in my heart, the old fox, and actually said bad things about him in front of Wu Yao, he planned to see the old man Wu next time and make him angry.
"Ah, it's so late, you're going back, I thought you'd stay here for one night?"
Wu Yao laughed softly and stupidly, and opened her eyes to Lin Tian face to face: "It can't be that I haven't seen you for this time, you miss me, right?" ”
Since Lin Tian entered Fucheng, he rarely walked out of Fucheng, and the Li people didn't go back for a long time. In addition, Wu Yao, as the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, is also very busy every day, so the two have not seen each other since they met on the day the Kaichun Straight Road was built.
"Ahem", Lin Tian coughed a few times in embarrassment, his face was a little red, and he said embarrassedly: "What's the matter, I think it's so late now, and now I'm afraid of encountering wild beasts on the way back, so it's better to rest here for a whole night, and set off tomorrow morning, which is safer." ”
"Hmph, seeing that you're still worried about me, I won't be angry with you. But I'm really leaving, those patriarchs are blocking grandpa, I want to hurry back. ”
Seeing that Wu Yao had made up his mind, Lin Tian was not good at persuading.
Wu Yao, who walked to the door, suddenly turned his head and said, "By the way, you must call me when you go to the south." And oh, those beasts can't catch up with me in the straight carriage! ”
Before leaving, Wu Yao thought that Lin Tian was obviously thinking about himself, but he was actually duplicitous and very dissatisfied, so he teased Lin Tian again before leaving.
Lin Tian suddenly fell into an embarrassment, even if there was no one next to him, his little face was red. retorted in his heart: Bears and pigs can't catch up, can't leopards catch up? Hey, there don't seem to be fast cats like leopards in Yidi, but there are wolves! But even if the wolf catches up with the speed of the carriage, it seems that the carriage can't help it!
When Lin Tian refuted and comforted himself, Wu Yao had already got into the carriage on the way back. The carriage in which Wu Yao rode was pulled by two horses, and the carriage and wheels were specially made, and its toughness and strength were strong. Therefore, the speed of this carriage was faster than that of ordinary carriages, and although it was night, the bright moonlight was as bright as a candle, so that the horses and coachmen could not see the road clearly.
When the sky was just white, Wu Yao rushed back to Wuheng. When I went back to see my grandfather, I hurriedly told him what I had gained. After hearing this, the old man also suddenly realized that he understood the reason for the incident, and then the old man ordered the cancellation of the decree on the establishment of the village before sending those who made trouble, and at the same time the old man also sent someone to hand the news to Zaga of Soto.
"Yao'er, why did you go to Fucheng for a trip, so happy. Seeing Lin Tian's kid, he deserves to be so happy. ”
Old man Wu quipped to Wu Yao, who was laughing stupidly.
"What nonsense is grandpa talking about, I see that Wuheng's problem has finally been solved, of course I'm happy, grandpa finally doesn't have to be blocked at the door and can't get out."
"Hey, you girl."
Old man Wu's lifelong interest is to drink a little wine, and he always goes out of a tavern in the city to have a few drinks on weekdays, but he has been blocked at the door of his house these days, and he can't go out at all, but he can suffocate this old man. Wu Yao naturally knew this, and deliberately said it to take a small revenge on his grandfather's open-mouthedness.
Wu Yao and Old Man Wu looked at each other, not losing the slightest advantage. The old man shook his head with a sigh and walked outside the house, "Hey, the girl is not staying!" Our old man has no one to love, so let's go to the bar! ”
Old man Wu naturally saw his granddaughter's duplicity, but Old Man Wu was still in a very good mood now. Regarding the development of this matter, Old Man Wu didn't think it was a bad thing at all, and even felt that he had made a lot of money. Think about it, if Lin Tian is his grandson-in-law in the future, it will be equivalent to his grandson, how face-saving it is!
Now, the three families are prosperous, the old man Wu is also idle, and the affairs of the tribe are much less than before. After all, everyone is almost living and working in peace and contentment, and those who don't have it are also strivers, and there is hope, and there are not so many annoying things to find Old Man Wu before.
Today's old man Wu is like a retired old cadre, living a quiet life, running to the tavern to have a few drinks when he has nothing to do, and his life is also very comfortable. If a person who has been very busy suddenly relaxes, it is actually very uncomfortable.
For example, the old man Wu, although his life is comfortable, his heart is always empty, and he feels that something is missing. From time to time, before Wu Heng's belonging troubles, according to the influence of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, sooner or later the hearts of the people of the three departments will run to the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect. What the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect did made Old Man Wu have no place to refute, and even Old Man Wu still agreed very much in his heart.
Although Lin Tian was unintentional, he didn't really want to control the three parts, but when he thought that the Wuheng passed down by his ancestors was about to end in his hands, he also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Now, Old Man Wu's heart was suddenly relieved, and when the time came, Lin Tian would become his grandson-in-law, and his great-nephew would be the master of the three departments. And Zeng's nephew also has Wu Heng's bloodline, so that Wu's bloodline has not been broken, which makes the old man Wu completely relieved of his previous faint sorrow.
