Wen Xi followed the men to the mountains to cut wood and prepare to repair the original houses, while Xiang Jiuling and the women in the village were looking for wild vegetables and fetching water, and the children gathered around the river to catch fish and shrimp.

"Mother, I'll go around and see if there's a cave or something!"

Dabao took Erbao and Sanni to pack up their things and came to find Xiang Jiuling, and took the initiative to find a place to live temporarily.

Everyone had just arrived, and they were not familiar with the surrounding environment, so Xiang Jiuling felt at ease that Dabao went out alone, so he handed Dabao the basket with some wild vegetables in his hand to Dabao.

"Don't go, you take Erbao and Nizi to pick wild vegetables here, I'll go around and have a look!"

"Mother, go and go back quickly!"

Sanni obediently followed behind Dabao and gave a soft and glutinous command.

Xiang Jiuling unconsciously raised a smile and touched Sanni's cute little face, "Okay, Nizi obediently follows her brother, and my mother will go back when she goes!" ”

Under the watchful eyes of the three children, Xiang Jiuling entered the forest, and while looking for a place to hide temporarily, she checked her consciousness space.

As the number of days she survived here increased, the space gradually expanded, and the materials she could exchange for were more and more abundant, including many types of seeds.

Seeing this, Xiang Jiuling was very satisfied, these seeds are very important for their survival here in the future, and they are more efficient than the seed yield here, and when the time comes, use these seeds to sow seeds, and there will definitely be no problem with food in the future.

Xiang Jiuling has a conscious space, and there is no big problem with eating, but she can't find a cave where she can live after looking around, so she can't help but be a little frustrated.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, I saw the village chief, who had also come to find a place to stay, both of whom had the same purpose.

"Village chief, the mountains in this place are too low, there are no caves or rock walls, it seems that you can only find another place to live!"

The village chief was also going to find a place to hide and live temporarily, and then open up wasteland to build a house, so that he could have a stable place to live in the future, and there was no need to flee for his life.

"Daughter-in-law of the Wen family, you ...... Do you have any good ideas? ”

"In this way, we can only repair those abandoned houses first, after all, the weather is getting colder and colder, and we must ensure a place to live first!"

Hearing this, the village chief nodded, although there are not many abandoned houses in this place, they can build a few more sheds after repairing them, temporarily settle down and then build houses slowly.

"Okay! And we have to hurry up to open up the wasteland and grow grain, otherwise how can we survive this winter! ”

Considering that the number of people fleeing the famine is not regular, some are dragging families with families, some are one person or husband and wife, and some even only have women and children left, if there is no unified arrangement, I am afraid that it will ......

"Village chief, we are in this situation, why don't you integrate the entire team and resources, let everyone perform their duties, those with skills are responsible for building houses, those with labor are responsible for clearing wasteland, women can cook and wash clothes, as for the follow-up material housing arrangements, according to the labor and population arrangements of each family, so that everyone can contribute and benefit, what do you think!"

Human nature, Xiang Jiuling understands, the village chief naturally understands better, now a group of them have just arrived in a new place, everyone has self-interest, and will naturally choose a place that is beneficial to themselves, so that the whole village is like a plate of scattered sand, and the development is naturally slow.

"You're right, now our new village is in ruins, and only by integrating forces can it be built as soon as possible, and it can only be developed after it is built!"

The village chief went back with joy and summoned everyone over, and replaced Xiang Jiuling's suggestion with his own words.

Of course, there are also people who disagree, "Then our family has a lot of labor and a lot of work, if it is done and distributed to others, it is not a loss?" ”

When the village chief heard this, he frowned, "Your family has a lot of labor, but there are also a lot of old and weak women and children, and your family will not suffer when the time comes, whether it is distributed according to the head or the population, and now we can unite to survive the winter better under special circumstances, and you can find out how you want to find it in the future!" ”

As soon as the man heard the village chief's analysis, he thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Many people also started a heated discussion, some agreed and some disagreed.

Seeing that things were getting worse, the village chief sighed and said, "Big guy, be quiet first, listen to me a few words." ”

"There are people from this village and people from other villages, but now that we have established a new village, then we will naturally be a person in a village in the future, think about how many things happened on our way to escape from the wilderness during this time, how many lives and deaths we have seen, and finally now we have a stable place, we should be happy and cherish."

Everyone couldn't help but think of the hardships and fears on the way to escape the famine, and those who lost their loved ones couldn't help but shed tears.

"Now that winter is coming, we can only work together to build a house in the fastest time, and so on through this difficulty, we want to develop how I have no two words, I believe that the people who can stand here have a conscience, do you really want to see the incapable old and weak women and children can not survive this winter?"

The village chief's words fell, and the noisy venue before was instantly silent, and everyone didn't feel that they lowered their heads.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

"I'll build a house, I'll repair it!"

"I have the strength, and I'm the best at plowing the fields!"

All unanimously approved the village chief's proposal.

Very moment, very treated.

Everyone performed their duties according to the instructions of the village chief, those who had skills went to the mountains to cut down trees and bamboos to repair houses, those who had the strength were responsible for reclaiming wasteland, women helped from the side, some stayed to cook and wash clothes, and the elderly who were unable to work were responsible for taking care of their children.

The whole village is filled with an atmosphere of labor, and everyone is trying to contribute their part.

The construction of the new village here is in full swing, and the three members of the Xiang family on the other side have settled down after entering the county seat, and met the employer through an introducer, and got the money from the seller.

As soon as the three of them took the money, they went to the city to squander it, and ate a good meal, Lu Erhu was even more ready to use the money to do some business to make money, and the second elder of the Xiang family naturally agreed.

When they arrived with the landlord's sedan chair the next day, they found that the original place had already disappeared from Xiang Jiuling and a few people, and even Chai He had been taken away.

The slaves of the landlord's family are naturally not easy to mess with, and when they saw this situation, they thought that the Xiang family was playing tricks, and said contemptuously: "Now that this person is gone, then you will take out the money, and you have to compensate for our losses, otherwise you will feel better!" ”

"Big brother, don't don't, let's talk about something, I'm ...... Our money is in the inn, and we will personally send it over in the evening and apologize by the way. ”
