Chapter 144: Nanshan Village gets a new look

  Chapter 144 Nanshan Village has a new look

  Families living in the village built cellars in their houses. They hid in the cellars during the day and came out to work at night.

   All the open spaces in the village have been built with new houses, and the houses are so close together that there is not even an aisle in the middle.

  Most of the newly built houses are built with mud walls, and some people use logs to build houses.

  The whole village is full of patterns, there are all kinds of houses, and the styles and sizes are also very different.

  The old well in the village, which had been abandoned for many years, was re-washed. The villagers collectively funded the digging to a depth of 100 meters. The clear and sweet well water was warmly welcomed by the villagers.

  The water well is guarded by a special person. The family only supplies two barrels a day, which is enough for the family to eat and drink. The domestic water can only be taken from the stream outside the village.

   Even with this regulation, for a village of nearly 400 people, one well is not enough.

  After coordinating with many parties, Yuhe dug two new wells with a depth of 200 meters at the end of the village. It was expressly stipulated that they could only be used by villagers at the end of the village.

  Because the villagers in the village were unwilling to provide materials to ask people to dig wells, saying that they did not need to go to the end of the village to fetch water, and the people at the end of the village should be responsible.

  Because of the well, Nanshan Village was divided into a new village and an old village. Yu He simply divided a village into two teams.

  The old village is called the first team, with former villager Liang Shan as the team leader, and the new village is called the second team, with Zhao Cang as the team leader.

  The original villagers of Nanshan Village all lived in the village, so the villager Liang Shan was in charge.

  The people in the second team were all people who went to the countryside from the city, so Zhao Cang was in charge.

  The current team leader is not paid for the time being, and his main task is to manage the well and coordinate the conflicts among neighbors.

   Liang Shan and Zhao Cang also drove ducks to the shelves, and were persuaded by Yu He.

  He promised the two of them that as long as there were job vacancies in the village, he would give them priority in becoming regulars.

  Becoming a full-time employee means that there will be a monthly subsidy, which is what many people want.

  The so-called job quota means that Yu He can receive food subsidies every month.

  When he went to the village, the food subsidy for a month was 50 catties, and the family of three could eat and drink together without any problem.

  Since he came to the village, the monthly subsidy has been reduced to 30 catties, but the family can divide two acres of land, and can also choose the land to build a 20-square-meter house.

  Yu He rented out the house in the town, took his wife and children to work in Nanshan Village, and planned to send his parents to the countryside after the harvest in the field.

  With a job quota as a carrot, Liang Shan and Zhao Cang naturally agreed.

  Now everyone is busy building homes and farming, and they get along fairly peacefully. After all, there are only a few people who like to scold the street like Wang Duo.

  Since Liang Shan became the team leader, the Zhang family has restrained a lot, and their family also realized that their situation is not good.

  Did not dare to commit public anger again, for fear of being driven out of the village by the villagers uniting.

  The Zhang family shrunk their heads and behaved like men, secretly trying to pull Liang Shan off his horse and take his place.

  When there is no profit to drive, no one takes the position of team leader seriously.

   When one day it is revealed that it is profitable, these people will not be so calm.

   It took a month for Lan Shayu and the others to move into caves, and the walls of the yard and the ground have been repaired.

  Because of the limited number of stones, they built a mixed wall of stone and bamboo. The wall is three meters high and has sharp bamboo thorns at the top.

  There is an unattractive thick wooden door on the fence. After all, there is still Xiao's family inside, so it is impossible for them to block the road.

  A cistern with a depth of ten meters and a length and width of five meters was built beside the creek, and a bamboo pot cover was added to prevent the water from evaporating too quickly.

  The courtyard is entirely made of bamboo, and a thick layer of clay is pasted on the bamboo walls.

  The five yards are lined up side by side, with a bamboo gate in the middle, and the five families still eat together.

  Every family’s yard is 50 square meters in size, and they try to expand the yard as much as possible, and later people follow suit.

  The built yards are all close to the newly opened dirt roads. It is very convenient for each family to grow vegetables and work in the big yard.

   "Uncle Zhao, I'm busy!"

   When Yu He passed by outside the courtyard, he saw Zhao Jiawang making bamboo furniture from the open courtyard door. What he didn't expect was that a city person would know more than a country person.

   "Haha, busy work, your yard is finished!"

   "It's almost ready, only a dozen bamboos are enough.

  Uncle Zhao, what kind of furniture are you making? "

  Zhao Jiawang smiled and continued with the work in hand, said.

   "Make a bamboo frame, and weave a few shallower baskets for growing vegetables. Don't you grow vegetables at home?"

  Yu Heyi listened to grow vegetables, his eyes lit up, and he said.

   "Uncle Zhao, I'll take the bamboo back and come to you to learn. Vegetables must be grown.

   It’s just that the seeds are hard to find. There are only two kinds in my family.

  I have had enough days without food. "

  Yu He didn't wait for Zhao Jiawang's answer, and walked home quickly with two bamboos on his shoulders.

  After working for a period of time, he has also practiced, from not being able to do anything to knowing a little bit of everything.

  Human potential is truly endless.

  Yu He feels that coming to Nanshan Village has many advantages, such as clean water and edible wild vegetables.

  Although the taste is not very good and it is too old, you can always make a meal of wild vegetable soup a day.

  Every time Lu Sihui digs back the vegetable roots, she will carefully plant them in pots, and she can eat fresh and tender wild vegetables every other week.

  Although each of them can only eat one chopstick, this is already better than many others.

  The whole family regards the wild vegetables in the three pots as treasures. Even the three-year-old son knows that they are the most important things in the family and should not be touched casually.

  The yard of his house is about to be completed, and growing vegetables has become a top priority.

  When Yu He returned home with bamboo, Lu Sihui was cutting hair in the yard, and there were two people waiting beside him, both from the second team.

   "Mr. Yu, you are quite capable of action!"

   Waiting Qiu Tianlei greeted Yu He with a smile when he came back.

   "Is Tianlei off today?"

   "I have to go back to work after a haircut. I haven't had a day off since I came to the countryside. I can't live through this day."

  Chou Tianlei, in his twenties, has a public face, the kind that won't be noticed even if thrown into a crowd.

  When he talked about work, his face was full of sadness. He was forced by his parents to go to the countryside together, and he was always reluctant to do things.

   Of course, you can be lazy at work if you can. Whoever asks those who go to the countryside to work, Qiu Guang has nothing to do about it.

  My son can never be kicked out of the house, let him die outside, everything can only be carried by himself.

  Yu He shook his head, he knew a thing or two about the Qiu family, but as an outsider, it was not easy to comment.

  Qiu Guang himself can accept, what he can say, I hope they will not have trouble with him one day.
