Chapter Ninety-Four: Digging a Well
Old Man Xiang gently pulled Fu Bao's little hand, his mouth was crooked in the direction of Grandma Xiang, Fu Bao understood in seconds, walked over and hugged Grandma Xiang's legs, and shouted in a milky voice: "Milk, hug." ”
Grandma Xiang hurriedly picked up Fu Bao, kissed her on the cheek, and then walked to her house, she wanted to ask Fu Bao how to protect herself.
"Fubao, you tell grandma that the wooden cards you give to your brother and uncle will hurt you."
"No, it won't."
Fu Bao knew in her heart that as long as her spiritual power was strong enough, saving someone's life was better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, but if she was not strong enough, she would lose a lot of spiritual energy, and even lose her essence.
When Grandma Xiang got the answer, she felt a lot less anxious in her heart, took a rice bag, went to the cellar and filled ten catties of white rice, ten catties of white flour, and fifty catties of sorghum rice, and then let Fugui send it to the auspicious master when she had time.
Fugui nodded, put the rice bag in the corner, he won't go to the county seat in the past two days, the weeds in the field have to be disposed of, the water tank at home must be full, and the firewood needs to be prepared.
Fugui's sister-in-law felt sorry for her man, and couldn't help but say: "Fugui, do you say that our family can dig a well, if a well is drilled, there will be no need to carry water in the future." ”
Fugui was also moved, he found the old man Xiang and made this suggestion, the old man Xiang always recalled a word that Fu Bao said that day, and couldn't help but ponder when he heard the well.
If you want to talk about natural disasters, they are nothing more than droughts, floods, earth dragons turning over, locusts transiting, they don't have big rivers here, so floods are unlikely, only drought.
"Cheng, you go to the county and ask, our family will dig a well in the front yard."
"Hey, I'll go."
Fugui went to the county with an ox cart, and met people from the village along the way who wanted to go to the county by car, and Fugui also nodded and agreed, what is wrong with earning two more copper plates.
"Hey, Fugui, did you take this grain to the county to sell for silver?" Someone saw three bags of rice noodles piled up on the car and couldn't help asking.
"Hmm"
Fugui doesn't explain, the so-called too much is wrong, since they think it's selling silver, even if it's good to sell silver.
"It's been a difficult year, and this year it's thanks to the fruits of your family that we can get through it." A villager said gratefully.
Fugui smiled and waved his hand, in the countryside and countryside, if you can help, you can help it, and now you are still looking for a potter who drills a well.
Old Man Xiang stood in the courtyard with Fu Bao and asked Fu Bao which place in his house was the most suitable place to dig a well, but if the place was not right, he would never be able to dig a well.
Fu Bao's spiritual power emanated, and the grass on the ground swayed his small body slightly, pouring in one direction.
Fu Bao followed the guidance of the grass and walked to the outside of the yard, and the old man Xiang hurriedly followed, until he walked close to the fence and the fruit tree, and the grass returned to its original state.
"Grandpa, hit here."
Old Man Xiang was very careful this time, and when he saw that the grass and trees under his feet seemed to move slightly, he already understood a little bit in his heart, and sure enough, where Fu Bao was standing, the soil was obviously wet.
"Cheng, grandpa listens to Fubao, and Fubao says that we will fight wherever we want."
What else in this world can know the situation under the ground better than the roots of the grass and trees, and the old man Xiang happily picked up Fubao and walked directly to the back mountain.
It has become a habit for Fu Bao to go to the back mountain, collect some pheasants and hares today, catch a roe deer tomorrow, come back with a handful of herbs the day after tomorrow, and catch a wild boar two days later.
These animals are also really obedient, and they don't know how Fu Bao did it, they will be obediently received by Fu Bao into her spirit space, and there is no spirit of resistance.
Today's task is to collect firewood, and Fu Bao directly collects the old trees and dead branches that have died in the mountains into the spirit space, with these old trees and dead branches, the family no longer has to worry about not having enough firewood in winter.
"Fubao, tell grandpa, how many things can you put in that magic weapon?" Old Man Xiang exclaimed.
"Many, much."
Fu Bao didn't know how to describe her spirit space, it seemed that as the spirit slowly became stronger, the space would slowly expand, almost to the point of infinity.
Old Man Xiang didn't ask, he was worried that if he asked too much, Fu Bao accidentally leaked the heavenly secret, then it was really over.
Fugui took people into the village, everyone saw that it was a stranger, and it was inevitable to ask a few words, and when they asked, they knew that it was actually a cellar maker, which meant that the Fugui family was going to dig a well.
When the people in the village learned that Xiang Hanlin's family was going to dig a well, some of them followed with great interest to watch, and some rolled their eyes and said that Hanlin's family was sassy, and there was a small river in the village, so it was necessary to dig a well.
The potter came to check the land, and if there was no groundwater in this place, they wouldn't be able to do this job, but when the potter saw the place pointed by the old man Xiang, he couldn't help but smile.
"Old man, our potters dig wells to collect silver according to the depth, and collect one tael of silver within 20 meters, two taels of silver within 50 meters, and three taels of silver if it is deeper." The potter said.
"Cheng, when are you going to come and dig a well?" Old Man Xiang asked.
"Tomorrow, I'll have someone come over tomorrow to dig a well, it usually takes ten days, if it's convenient for the old man, give a free room, and prepare some water, and they will bring their own bedding and dry food." The potter was about to leave.
Xiang Laosan stopped the potter, he also wanted to dig a well, since the family was separated, he moved to a new house with his daughter-in-law and son, and went up to the mountains to hunt when he had time, but also saved some silver.
When the potter heard that there were still people who wanted to dig a well, he happily followed the third child, just looking for it, and the best place to dig a well was actually at the door of the dog's house, which ......
Looking at the excited appearance of the dog girl, the third child has no desire to dig a well, and wants to let the dog girl spend half of the silver to dig a well, which is estimated to be more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Rather than this, it's better not to fight, don't lose your wife and soldiers at that time, and you won't even be able to maintain the most basic face at that time.
Early the next morning, when it was still dark, the potter and his men came to the house of the old man Xiang, and they began to move according to the place they had determined yesterday.
Old Man Xiang and Fugui hurriedly came out to help, and sure enough, when it reached about ten meters, the soil was already very wet and sticky, and it was estimated that after another three or five meters, the water would come out.
In the end, about eighteen meters were hit, and a large amount of water gushed out at the bottom of the well, and everyone cheered happily, and Grandma Xiang also asked Fugui to take water and veneer cakes out to let the potters replenish their strength.
When the potters saw the veneer cakes, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, this owner is so good, they must do a good job to be worthy of the dough cakes in their hands.
