"Today, all the noodles are over."

Ning Lao Er heard his younger brother's somewhat reluctant tone and smiled: "It's okay, wait until I have time to grind some for you and send it over." ”

Ning Qingxi knew how hard her third uncle was grinding this side, and it was not easy when the two stones were polished, originally they wanted the black dot to grind, but the stubborn cow in the black dot didn't listen to it, so it could only be done manually.

Thinking about it, Ning Qingxi suddenly thought that he could make a water mill!

It just so happens that they have that waterwheel, isn't that convenient?

"When I study the water mill tomorrow, we won't have to be so tired."

Ning Qingxi's words attracted the attention of the whole family.

Ning Laosan's face was pleasantly surprised, "You can also grind noodles with water?" ”

Ning Qingxi nodded and explained the operating principle of the water mill in general, which is nothing more than using the kinetic energy of water to push the grinding disc.

Ning Changrong and Wang Xiujuan probably understood, and the others seemed to understand and were confused.

However, this did not prevent them from looking at Ning Qingxi with admiration.

What a living fairy! Otherwise, what would it be? They had never felt that life could be so convenient before.

Since coming to this Taoyuan Village, it is like entering another world, and Ning Qingxi will come up with a good thing that they have never seen before.

The next day Ning Qingxi went to find Carpenter Sun, and in just ten days, a huge mill was erected next to the waterwheel.

The mill is free to use, but you have to wait in line, first come, first served.

"You eat first, and I'll go and bring this wheat first."

After Mrs. Ding finished speaking, she hurriedly picked up a small bag of wheat and walked to the mill over there.

Everybody is in line, but if it's your turn and you're not there, you'll have to wait until the next one.

Mrs. Ding has been queuing for three days, and she doesn't want to wait any longer.

When Ning Miao heard this, she put down the chopsticks in her hand, walked to Mrs. Ding's side and helped her take the bag of wheat, "Mother, I'll go with you." "How can I let his mother go over there to work and eat it himself? Isn't this unfilial piety?

Mrs. Ding did not refuse, and when she hurriedly followed her son to the mill, she heard someone shouting, "Whose family is this?" Come quickly, if you don't come again, I'll grind first! ”

Mrs. Ding hurriedly ran over, "Come on, this is my family!" ”

When Lai Pozi saw someone coming, she pursed her lips, "Hurry up and grind, your house will come to my house after grinding." ”

Mrs. Ding didn't have time to worry about her, and instructed her son to get the wheat and put it in the grinding plate.

It's so dangerous, she looked at the two bags of wheat beside Lai Pozi, if she came a little later, it was estimated that she would have to wait for half a day.

After she put the wheat in, she smiled proudly at Lai Pozi.

Li's father's legs have long recovered, and now he walks like a fly, and his strength is no worse than that of his sons.

Village Chief Ning looked at the work he was doing with his sons beside him with satisfaction, and nodded.

"The Li family has twelve minutes of work today."

Although the shopkeeper Lin is a scorekeeper, he actually only does a bookkeeping job, after all, he is also an outsider when he comes here, if he judges how many points these people should score, there may be some people in Taoyuan Village who are not convinced, if the village chief Ning comes, no one will dare to stab.

After hearing what Village Chief Ning said, Shopkeeper Lin used the charcoal pen he carried with him to write down the Li family's work.

Father Li smiled when he heard this, and after saying hello to the two, he buried his head in finishing the little work left in the field before going home.

As soon as she got home, Li's mother had already cooked the meal.

"Coming back? Come on, sit down, I've got a cake today. ”

There are seven men in the Li family, so they have a lot of strength and earn a lot of work, but they all have a lot of appetite.

"You've been going to see Dafeng for the past few days? Is she okay over there? ”

The head of the family, Li's father, said while eating.

Mother Li also sat down after finishing her work, "It's nothing, I look in good spirits." ”

Father Li took some chopped peppers and took a bite of the cake, "Well, it's okay." ”

After finishing speaking, he fell into silence, and Li's father thought to himself that he would have to save some egg tickets for his daughter to send when the time came.

That's right, all the eggs in the farms are now used to hatch chicks, except for those that can't hatch chicks.

But because of the limited number of eggs, Taoyuan Village issued an egg ticket, which can be redeemed with the ticket.

…………

Taoyuan Village lives and works in peace and contentment, and Taixi County is as gloomy as a storm.

"If you want me to say let's do it together! Tan Guangquan and Zhu Zhanping, the two dogs, still want to take advantage of us? Do they deserve it? Ma Honglin was a grumpy slap the table and said angrily.

Wang Hanting was silent for a while, glanced at it, and was silent Chang Yuan and Bai Yunliang.

"General, Mr. Bai, I estimate that Tan Guangquan and Zhu Zhanping have joined forces with the imperial court."

"We are full of sincerity this time, and promised to let them use money to buy food, they have robbed so many big dog families in their hands, and they must have accumulated a lot of silver but they are unwilling, they would rather take risks to rob us, this is fearless."

There is a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, Zhu Zhanping and Tan Guangquan should not be fools, they must know that even if they attack hard and grab food, they will return in vain, and they will be injured in vain.

They sent people to the peace talks, and they were willing to accept that Zhu Zhanping and Tan Guangquan would use money and grain to buy grain from them, and after they got the silver, they could buy it from the south to make up for the shortfall.

Although the south is under the rule of the Nanchen court, but in these years, whose money is not earned, as long as there is money to be made, more merchants are willing to transport grain to sell to them, and many merchants may still be those court officials behind them, but it does not prevent them from selling grain to earn silver.

Bai Yunliang also nodded with a wry smile when he heard this, "General Wang's speculation coincides with the following. ”

The method of exchanging silver for food was still a decision they made after careful consideration, but they didn't expect the other party to turn away their messenger without thinking about it.

"Zhu Zhanping and they passed the word, saying that they wanted us to give them 200,000 yuan for free, but the food would not attack our Huaixi Mansion, this food was enough for them to eat for a year, it was obviously a lion's mouth."

"They don't have sincerity with him at all, so fearless, there must be someone behind them, guessing and guessing, I can only think of Chen Wenlong in the south cooperating with them."

Chang Yuan sat in his position and finally spoke: "If you don't have any good solutions, I'm afraid this war will be inevitable." ”

To tell the truth, if there is a way, Chang Yuan is not willing to go to war in the winter at all, the imperial court is this is a thousand wounds to the enemy, and eight hundred self-losses, it seems that the emperor Lao'er really regarded him as a thorn in the flesh in his eyes.
