After the meal, the village chief took the young and middle-aged people in the village to cut bamboo.

Men do heavy work, women do light work, and children do the work.

The elderly are responsible for taking care of the children, cleaning up wild vegetables and cooking.

Tian Dahu will build a bamboo shed, find a relatively high and flat place, and guide everyone to build a bamboo shed.

The humble shed was quickly erected, and soon several bamboo sheds were framed.

Shen Yunxi saw that everyone had to use big leaves to make roofs, and it was too troublesome to change the roofs in three or two days.

In his previous life, Shen Yunxi had seen people in some places in the south making bamboo.

A bamboo breaks off from the middle, splits in two, and bends back and forth. The upper part is pressed on the lower semicircular bamboo tube, which is a simple bamboo tile

Although exposed to wind and sun, these bamboo tiles do not last long and shade the roof better than simple large leaves.

Shen Yunxi told Tian Dahu his thoughts.

He was originally a carpenter. Instantly understood, he quickly split a few semicircular bamboo tubes, stood on the ladder, and placed them on the roof.

The front and back ends can also be fastened with rope and are stronger than leaves.

Tian Dahu praised: "Youqing's family, you are so smart. You can read and count, which is faster than our heads turn. ”

Shen Yunxi smiled: "I just use my mouth. When I actually get to work, I need Uncle Tiger and everyone else to do more!"

Tian Dahu smiled and was praised. He felt good, "but I don't have much experience after all." If you have any great ideas, just let me know. ”

"Okay, Uncle Big Tiger, you're busy. I'm going there to help chop the bamboo. Shen Yunxi smiled and said, "I hope everyone can live in a bamboo shed tonight."

Tian Dahu smiled, "I tried my best, but the south is wet, and the ground is wet." I want to make more bamboo beds for the elderly and children so that they don't sleep on the floor and can't find a doctor when they get sick. ”

Shen Yunxi gave Tian Dahu a thumbs up: "Uncle Dahu is still very thoughtful."

With the encouragement of Village Chief Tian and Shen Yunxi, the entire former Lihua Village was very busy. Even children like Tian Xiuzhu and Tian Erniu will do everything they can to take care of children younger than them.

Because Tian Daniu and Tian Xiuli knew how to count, they helped count bamboo, semi-circular bamboo tubes and various bamboo pieces.

It gets dark late in the summer.

When it got dark, only seven or eight sheds were built. The elderly, children and women slept in sheds. They spread large leaves on the ground outside, covered themselves with them, and prepared them for sleep.

It's just that there are too many mosquitoes, which makes it uncomfortable.

Shen Yunxi chopped a lot of wormwood with a knife, put some wormwood in the fire that was about to be extinguished, and after a while, a smoke wrapped in the smell of wormwood came out, smoking away all the buzzing mosquitoes, and everyone barely sleeped.

Although the conditions are difficult now, there are no bandits and there are not many wild beasts here, so everyone is very relieved.

The next morning, Shen Yunxi found the village chief and said, "A few more bamboo huts are enough for today." The rest of us need to open up terraces. Village chief, we need to buy seeds and iron plows. I have four taels of silver on me, and I will take three taels to buy seeds. ”

Tian Village Chief thought for a while: "Okay, I'll go gather the villagers, let's go collect the money."

Some have silver, some don't. At this time, people who have money are not willing to pay.

Seeing that the people below were speechless and unwilling to pay, Tamura Chief was worried. "If we don't have the money to buy good seeds, even if we reclaim wasteland, it's useless!"

Yang Dacui was also worried. "My family gave three taels of silver to buy grain seeds, but without a plow, shovel, or sickle, I couldn't plant the land! Everybody has money to pay, and we can work hard. ”

But everyone was silent.
