Chapter 35: Breakdown
"Okay."
In the dark, Shen Jingcheng responded in a low voice.
He knew that Gu Jin had been very uneasy since the incident with the Gu family sisters, and if she could settle down if she did what she wanted, then he was willing.
"Why do you agree to everything I say?" Gu Jin rubbed crookedly in his arms, very heartwarming.
"Because I want to, too." Shen Jingcheng said his reasons in the night: "We don't know how many more years we will be here, no one can guarantee that there will be no natural disasters and man-made disasters in the future, he sent the life and death of those people to me once or twice, forget it, do we still want to live for a long time?" It's different when I become a grain chief, at least I can go to the capital once a year, but he may not be able to make a county order, and he should be more restrained at that time. ā
Gu Jin didn't expect to go up there, and he was a little stunned for a while.
Yes, being a little common man can only be at the mercy of others, and being a lieutenant has to be manipulated by others, there is always something in this world that forces people to take the road they didn't want to take.
And what she will face in the future may be a hundred or a thousand times more troublesome than these things now.
"Husband, if one day, you find out that I am a big trouble, will you not want me?" After a long time, Gu Jin's voice sounded again.
Only this time, there was a lot more confusion in her voice.
In the past few years, Shen Jingcheng has always been very good to her, so good that when she thought that Shen Jingcheng might dislike herself in the future, she would not want herself, and she felt panicked and uncomfortable.
"No, it won't." Almost as soon as her voice fell, Shen Jingcheng responded, and the urgent voice seemed to refuse something.
"If one day you have that idea, tell me, IāI'll leave by myself......"
In the dark, Gu Jin continued, but Shen Jingcheng didn't want to listen anymore, he hugged her in his arms with both hands, and said in a muffled voice: "There won't be that day, I promise, no." ā
Feeling the strength of his tight grip, Gu Jin obediently stayed in his arms and quietly moistened his eyes.
Regardless of whether what Shen Jingcheng is saying now is true or not, as long as he has what he said, then if he is in trouble in the future, he will definitely not be implicated.
However, she didn't know how dangerous Shen Jingcheng's eyes were at the moment just because of her words.
Only then did he know that the matter of the Gu family sisters actually made Gu Jin have such an idea, but this was something he did not allow.
His Ah Jin can do whatever he wants, but he can't have such thoughts.
It's enough to lose once, and if he tries again, he'll go crazy.
Although Shen Jingcheng hugged her very tightly, Gu Jin felt unprecedentedly stable, and slowly fell asleep in his arms.
didn't know that after she fell asleep, Shen Jingcheng stared at her for a long, long time in the dark.
This morning, the people of the West Village waited in front of Shen Jingcheng's house for a long time and didn't open the door, so they sat at the door of his house and chatted with each other.
Liu Da was chatting with his neighbor Jiang Zhengshu in the crowd, and suddenly he heard someone calling him, and when he looked up, he saw Gao Dazhuang looking at this side outside the group.
Liu Da's eyes flashed slightly, and after saying a word to Jiang Zhengshu, he walked towards Gao Dazhuang.
"Big brother, you can give me a way, it's too slow to plough the ground with a shovel, if it goes on like this, I may not be able to plant an acre of land after the solar term passes!" As soon as Liu Da arrived, Gao Dazhuang couldn't wait to tell him his purpose.
After only using a shovel to turn over the land for two days, he couldn't turn it down, probably frightened by what they did to Shen Jingcheng and the Gu family, whether it was a family in the East Village who had finished cultivating the field or a family who had not finished cultivating the field, none of them were willing to lend them these ploughs.
If this continues, it would be good if he could cultivate two or three acres of land a year, and after paying taxes, who would have enough to eat?
"What can I do?" Liu Da sighed and said, "If I had a way, I wouldn't have relied on you to eat and drink with the stones all these years, right?" ā
Gao Dazhuang was silent when he heard this, and his face was a little bad.
But if you think about it seriously, this is indeed the case, if Liu Da really has a way, as for so many years, there is not a single acre of land? If it weren't for that broken head, Liu Da might still rely on him to eat now?
Thinking of this, Gao Dazhuang suddenly had an idea, quietly approached Liu Da, and asked, "How about you say that I make a bitter trick like you?" ā
Liu Da Ting's eyes were strange, he clearly remembered telling Gao Dazhuang that he didn't know who beat him, how could Gao Dazhuang still think so?
But looking at the tall and strong flickering eyes, Liu Da suddenly understood something.
From childhood to adulthood, he thought that Gao Dazhuang was the same as Yang Shishi, a person with no heart. Now it seems that not only Yang Shishi has a lot of eyes, but this tall and strong also has a lot of thoughts.
As for why he always showed that he didn't have any ideas before, he was probably using him as a swordman, right?
Liu Da suddenly didn't want to talk to Gao Dazhuang, and said lightly: "I advise you not to fool Shen Lichang, there is a saying called 'You can't be three and four again', you have already offended him twice, if Shen Lichang knows that you fool him as a fool, it will be a feud, and no one can save you." ā
After speaking, Liu Da turned his head and left.
I have known each other for many years, this is his last advice to Gao Dazhuang, feel free to listen to it or not!
Gao Dazhuang looked at the back of Liu Da leaving, and didn't understand why he suddenly changed his face, but he wanted to call Liu Da again, and felt that it was useless to call, so he turned his head back.
At three o'clock in the morning, the courtyard door of the Shen family finally opened, and Shen Jingcheng told everyone what kind of food he was going to get today, so he asked them to take the matter and go to the yard, and then the people in the West Village found that Shen Jingcheng suddenly accelerated the speed of grain storage.
Eight days later, all the grain was put into the warehouse, and the people of the West Village finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Since then, their time has been their own, and they no longer have to go to Shen Jingcheng's house every day to report.
After the grain was put into the warehouse, Shen Jingcheng and Gu Jin began to plan for next year's farming.
If you want to have a variety of land, you need to hire some people to work, and those who can do long-term work are preferred, and short-term workers are secondary, so that although more wages are wasted, it saves the trouble of finding labor every day.
If you have a worker, you have to give someone a place to live, right? You can't dig a nest at will for people to live in all year round, so you have to build a house.
After all, he is far away from the Daqing River, so many people have water, so he can't deliberately spare a person to pull water, so the well has to be arranged.
The workers, the draft, and the shelter have all been solved, so they have to have a place to put the grain after harvesting, and they have to plant so much land, and the houses where they used to put the grain cannot be opened, so they not only have to build houses for people to live in, but also have to build warehouses, and they have to continue to buy all kinds of farm tools.
In addition, with this year's locust plague and refugee incident, both of them felt that they had to find a hidden place to store more food in case of emergency.
Plan and plan, and the stall will be expanded.
"Well, are we taking too big a step?"
Gu Jin lay on the kang table, looking at the dense plan written on the paper, a little smacked.
In this way, there is not much money left that she and Shen Jingcheng have saved in the past few years.
"If it doesn't break or stand, it won't be harder than when we first came." Shen Jingcheng smiled and sat with her on his lap, his chin resting on her shoulder, looking at those plans, with a determination in his eyes.
Although this silver can't buy a yard in the county town, it can still do a lot of things in the countryside.
He wanted to quickly put Ah Jin at ease, and not always be restless because of a little thing.
