LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 81 People from Liujia Village come to make trouble
Seeing the passing customers entering the store one after another, Yun Duo and the guys got busy. On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she could not have imagined that there was a severe drought in the entire Yizhou Prefecture, but there were still many people rushing to the border to do business, and the business in her store was actually better. It's no wonder that there is a shortage of water all the way to the border. When merchants see a store open, why don't they come in to buy water?
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was talking to several ladies when a noise suddenly came from outside. Before asking questions on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, Yunxuan went to check and came back soon. She said that someone in the neighboring village was dissatisfied with them opening an inn during the drought season and saying that they were wasting water.
Yuan Chuyi was a little worried and quickly asked Yun Xuan to help him go out to take a look.
"Madam, you are a big-bellied one. If you have anything to do, just let them handle it. If you make any mistake, how should you explain it to the prince?" said a county magistrate's wife.
"Yuan Zhi, they are here." Yuan Chu pointed at Yun Xuan and Xuan Yue and walked out.
People outside are noisy. Someone was shouting: "Our village has been cut off from the water source, and we have no water to drink. I didn't expect that you don't give it to us, but use it for business. Do you have any conscience? Give us the water you sell!"
"Yes, give us water! We want water!"
"Give us water! We want water!"
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he looked at the crowd of villagers outside, and his worries couldn't help but expand. She walked forward, and Xuan Yue stood beside her, shouting, "Quiet, no noise! Our lady has something to say!"
"Say what, what is there to say? We need to drink water, give us the water!"
The crowd was still noisy.
Xuan Yue looked at the people who were making the most noise and flicked a small stone on their dumb points. They were immediately speechless. When the people behind saw that they were quiet, they also became quiet.
"I wonder which village all of you folks are from?" Yuanchu Yi asked calmly.
"We are from Liujia Village in front of us!" someone in the crowd responded.
Liujia Village is not far from Xishan Village. On the right hand side on the way into the city after crossing the big stone bridge, the river in front of Xishan Village also flows in front of their village. It can be said that the two villages are all villagers drinking from the same river.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he looked at these people and said calmly: "Folks in Liujia Village, I feel very sad that your village has lost its water source. Water is the source of life, and everyone cannot live without water!"
"You don't have to be pretentious. If you really feel sad, give us some water quickly!"
Someone else interrupted Yuan Chuyi and shouted.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he looked at the man and said with a slight smile: "I don't know why your village has cut off its water source, but the water we use to open our shop does not come from ourselves. We also listened to the words of the prefect He, and we are at home." A well was dug in the backyard, so we have water! I wonder if you all followed Mr. He's instructions to dig a well in the village?"
"We dug at the location chosen by the Yamen officials, but we didn't get any water!" someone responded.
"Yes, our village has dug five or six wells, but we haven't found any water!"
"There must be no water underground in our village! So we can't dig it!"
Yuan Chuyi frowned slightly. This is the southwest. Judging from the geographical location, the groundwater resources are still very rich. They couldn't dig it out. It was because they dug too shallowly, or they dug in the wrong location. But the specific situation needs to be inspected on the spot before we can draw a conclusion.
"If you folks can trust me, how about you let me go to your village and see how you dig the well?"
"Can we dig out water if you go there?" someone asked.
At this time, Zhang Yongfu stood up and said loudly: "This is Mrs. Xiao. It was her reminder that we started drilling the wells in our village, and it was also under her guidance that we knew how to drill the wells well! She You should thank her for being willing to look after the well for you!"
No one in Xishan Village had ever dug a well before. They didn’t know how to make the well walls and well mouth. Yuan Chuyi taught them how to do it.
After hearing Zhang Yongfu's words, the people in Liujia Village couldn't help but discuss among themselves. After a while, they said: "Do you want to use this to send us back and don't want to give us water?"
Yuan Chuyi chuckled, "I've gone with you to your village, what else do you have to worry about!"
The people in Liujia Village immediately felt that she had a point, so they relaxed and invited her to come to their village.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he called Engineer He, got on the carriage, and set off for Liujia Village with Xuan Yue Xuan Feng, Yun Xuan and the village chief.
Liujia Village was not far from Xishan Village, only a dozen miles away, and they arrived in less than two-quarters of an hour in a carriage. Xishan Village is quite large, with forty or fifty households. The houses in the village are well-located and very neat. When the villagers saw a carriage entering the village, they all ran out to watch the excitement.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he took Engineer He and others to the well dug by the people of Liujia Village to check. Engineer He looked around and determined that the locations of three wells were well chosen, but they were still digging too shallow, less than three feet deep.
Without saying a word, Xuan Yue picked up the shovel and jumped down into the well to dig. He didn't dig wide, he only dug one place. The deeper he dug, the wetter the soil became and the heavier the water vapor became. He couldn't dig even one foot. Suddenly, I saw water leaking out. When the people in Liujia Village saw real water slowly emerging, they cheered for joy.
"There is water, there is water!" The men, women and children cheered together.
"There must be water underground in these three wells. If we dig these three wells deeper, we will be able to dig out water!" Yuan Chuyi said.
"Madam, there are so many people in our village that three wells may not be enough. Can you help us find two more wells?" Liu Shanhe, the head of Liujia Village, stepped forward and begged.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he asked Engineer He for his opinion. When he nodded, he asked Village Chief Liu to take him to check around the village. Two quarters of an hour later, he helped them choose two more locations to dig wells.
The people in Liujia Village didn't know how to make well walls, so they asked Zhang Yongfu to teach them how to do it. When the village chief taught them how to make a well, the people in Liujia Village sent them out of the village with great gratitude and respect.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, they returned to the inn and saw Master He waiting for them there for a long time.
It turned out that Mr. He, the staff member, had told Mr. He about the Liujia Village. Mr. He thought that this situation might happen in other villages, so he thought of inviting Engineer He to help check the excavation work in each village. To improve the condition of the well, we brought villagers from the village who knew how to make well walls to teach them how to make well walls.
At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, he asked Engineer He to follow Mr. He without much thought. After all, the most important thing now was to dig wells to fight drought.
"Sister, are we still going to Yuanjiawan to sweep the grave?" Seeing that it was already past noon, Shiliu couldn't help but pull Yuan Chuyi's arm and asked.
Shiliu was a little resistant to returning to Yuanjiawan to visit the tomb.
First of all, they have been expelled from the family by the Yuan family and are no longer members of the Yuan family. Secondly, he didn't have a good impression of the people in Yuanjiawan. What impressed him most was the scene of those people snatching away some of the baggage they brought back from the capital. That scene is still vivid in his mind. Feeling trepidatious.
