Chapter 207: Contracting, digging ponds

Gao Mingcheng has been to Yangcheng, it has become a big gossip in the village recently, almost everyone has to mention this matter, when everyone saw Gao Yuanjian and they each had an electronic watch, they came forward to see this novelty.

Naturally, some people ask how to use it and how much it costs.

Gao Mingcheng said it truthfully, but the price he said was the selling price, not the wholesale price.

So as soon as the price was said, someone with a heart settled the account in private, and he was speechless, secretly thinking about what kind of business Gao Mingcheng had done, and he spent so much money to give it away!

Originally, there were all kinds of speculations, but soon, this speculation leaned on Gao Guobing's body, and now everyone knows that Gao Guobing is an official!

The original head of the unit was actually an official, but when he said it, he was not as good as the director of the bureau.

After pulling Gao Guobing, everyone no longer looks at Gao Mingcheng for being rich, and he probably can't afford to provoke him.

Gao Mingcheng himself is a ruthless character, he was the first in fights and brawls when he was a child, and now he has Gao Guobing as a backer, and the people in the village dare not provoke him if they have nothing to do.

When Gao Mingcheng heard this, he just laughed and didn't say anything.

Now that I have come back from Yangcheng and the things that need to be done have been done, then I should get the matter of contracting the mountains and forests done.

After he sold the gold, he resold a batch of electronic watches and toad mirrors, and he had a sum of money in his hand, which was enough for him to contract the mountains and forests, as well as the land preparation afterwards.

Talking to the people of the village committee, the matter was quickly completed, and it was of great benefit to the village committee to contract out the mountains and forests.

Because Xiaoshan was nameless, Gao Mingcheng named Xiaofushan on the spot. The name is very cheesy, but he says he likes it!

After contracting Xiaofushan, Gao Mingcheng quickly gathered people in the village, planning to dig the depression at the foot of Xiaofushan into a pond before the early rice harvest.

The excavated soil is not wasted, it can be used to fertilize the soil, and by the way, the foundation around the pond is tamped.

The people in the village are not afraid of hard work, but they are afraid that there is no work to do.

They are all from the same village, and it is not good to want this or that, but fortunately, there are many things, not only to dig ponds, but also to cut down trees and prepare the land, all of which require manpower.

Therefore, as long as those who are willing to come to work, and they are all hard-working and willing to work, Gao Mingcheng will not refuse to come.

As for those who are cheating and cheating, they don't dare to come to Gao Mingcheng to make trouble, because they can't beat Gao Mingcheng alone.

Things are going well, for convenience, Gao Mingcheng did not include lunch, only raised the salary a little, and the salary was five cents higher than when the railway was repaired.

Building a railway is a hard work, and this is also a hard work, but fortunately, it is close to home and saves trouble on the road.

At the beginning, Gao Mingcheng led people to guide the country for a while, let them know how to work, and then went to busy their own affairs.

He had to go into the mountains every once in a while to check the situation of the beehives, check the growth of Poria cocos, and by the way, look at other naturally grown medicinal materials, such as Ganoderma lucidum, yellow gardenia, etc.

On this day, Gao Mingcheng carried the honey shaker into the mountain.

After such a long time, the honey in the beehive is full, and the color is darker, it is time to shake the honey.

If honey is brewed for a long time, then there is more moisture, and the color is lighter, and if it is brewed through the sun, it is similar to golden yellow, and if it is brewed for a long time, then the color is darker, which is a dull amber color, and its texture is more viscous and sweet, and the shelf life will be longer.

Gao Mingcheng waits for the brew to be almost finished every time before he comes to shake the honey, otherwise people who buy honey will feel that they can't mix it with water.

It took a day to shake out all the honey in the beehive, and Rao is Gao Mingcheng also felt that his arm was sore.

Looking at a large vat of honey, Gao Mingcheng was happy and sad.

Yes, a big vat!

Because there is too much honey, there are not enough containers at home to hold it, so the water tank is washed and drained, and then it is used to temporarily hold honey.

Gao Mingcheng looked left and right, thinking that he would go to the county tomorrow and buy some more bottles to come back.

In fact, he is still thinking about whether to buy a tractor, otherwise there are too many goods, and it is always inconvenient to travel to and from the county.

Only a small part of the trees in Xiaofu Mountain can be sold for money, and most of them are useless weeds.

Don't underestimate weeds, these are fuels that can ignite fires.

Almost no one in the village spends money to buy coal, and every day they cook rice and stir-fry vegetables, using firewood, and sometimes there is not enough firewood, and they will go to other people's mountains to steal it, and then cause scolding and fighting.

Outside the wall of Gao Mingcheng's courtyard, there are a lot of miscellaneous trees that have been cut down, and these miscellaneous trees are first stacked and dried at will, and when they are about to be used, they are cut into small sections and then built.

Some people say that if the firewood of a family is high and good, then the life of the family will be prosperous, and some people can put firewood against the wall and fill the entire wall!

Most of the people gathered by Gao Mingcheng were arranged to dig ponds, and they planned to dig ponds before harvesting early rice, and if they wanted to plant trees, the reservoir was very important, and besides, there would be a drought in September this year, and the role of the reservoir would be even more important.

Gao Mingcheng doesn't completely ignore Xiao Fushan, after he is busy with his own affairs, he will also take off his shirt, show his strong arms, and work with others, he does his work, it is fast and good, so that others dare not slow down, for fear of being compared.

Taking labor money, but slower than the main family's work, isn't that a saying!

"I've dug a spring! Haha, this land is always wet and rotten, I said there must be a spring underneath! ”

"Yes, yes, if there is a spring, you won't have to worry about running out of water to plant trees."

The people who worked with their hoes laughed one after another, and the dull atmosphere became lighter and more cheerful.

Gao Mingcheng walked over to check, the place where the spring was dug began to bubble with clear water, there was originally a small puddle of water underneath, but now there is a tendency to gradually increase.

So he said, "Brothers, continue to dig, first dig the place of the spring and then dig deeper, and then dig other places, and strive to dig the pond today and tomorrow!" ”

"Great!" Everyone knows that after digging the spring, there will be more water, and if the pond is not dug in time, it will be very inconvenient.

So everyone started together, digging the soil, picking the soil, and being busy and organized.

Gao Mingcheng is also digging the soil, striving to dig the pond completely in these two days.

His pond is not too big, just over two acres, and it is not too deep, and the bottom is dark gray fine soil, except for some stones, which are good planting soil.

He dug quickly, and the dustpan filled up quickly, and was picked up.

There were so many people that by evening, the pond was almost dug up, and at the spring, some water had accumulated, and some people were as tall as their calves.

By tomorrow, there will be more water.

"Alright, that's all for today! Tomorrow we will repair the surrounding area and consolidate the foundation around the pond! Gao Mingcheng threw away the hoe and said loudly.

"Okay." The rest of the people responded and raised their hands to wipe the sweat from their faces.

Everyone was almost racing against time to work, and when a group of people worked hard, they didn't feel it, but now as soon as they stopped, they felt like their arms were shaking and their bodies were hollowed out.

Gao Mingcheng smiled embarrassedly when he saw them like this.

If he hadn't been there, these people might not have the strength to breastfeed.

A group of people returned to their homes one after another, some sat down and waited for dinner, while others preferred to be cleaner and ran to the reservoir to take a shower first.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the summer heat gradually dissipates, and the wind blows from the hills, the leaves rustle and the wildflowers sway, taking away the last scorching heat of the earth and bringing a long-lost coolness.

Living in a small mountain village is like this, even in the hot summer, it is cooler in the morning and evening.

Gao Mingcheng's dinner has already been eaten in the courtyard. After eating, Gao Mingcheng lay on the recliner to rest, and many Mei cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, singing a little song while cleaning up.

I heard this song from Yangcheng.

Many beauties have a bit of a talent for singing, and they can sing tunes that they have listened to a few times, and the tone is roughly the same.

Gao Mingcheng is not good, he is a typical incomplete pentatonic sound, so he rarely sings, which makes people laugh.

Listening to Duo Mei's beautiful singing, Gao Mingcheng began to wonder whether to buy a tape recorder for Duo Mei.

The look that was all the rage in the eighties was to wear bell bottoms, toad glasses, and hold a tape recorder!

Why? Singing, Jumpy, of course!

In 86, Cui Jian sang "Nothing", and since then Chinese rock music has been born, and this year, the "Disco Queen" Zhang Qiang will blow a super whirlwind, leading the carnival of fashionable young people.

After that, Teresa Teng's golden song "I Only Care About You", Qi Qin's golden song "About Winter", "The Outside World", and Wang Jie's debut album "A Game, A Dream" have been released one after another, bringing more music to people.

The entertainment industry is also about to enter an era of fairy fights, and many good-looking movies and songs have been born.

Gao Mingcheng squinted his eyes slightly, all kinds of chaotic thoughts appeared in his mind, and gradually, he fell asleep amid many beautiful songs.
