Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 5698 is very troublesome

Changping Village.Send Mrs. Sun to the pasture to help Xiaoduo and the others take care of their children. After returning, Yang Huazhong immediately devoted himself to the busy work of paving roads and repairing bridges.

Yang Yongxian was serious, so he invited several village elders to Yang Huazhong's house that night, accompanied by a master craftsman under his command, and they agreed on specific regulations for this bridge repair and road paving. Finalize the details.

Mrs. Sun was not at home, so Yang Ruoqing came over to make tea and water for the big guys, and sat aside to listen.

Yang Yongxian planned to build a road from the entrance of the village to Qingshui Town for ten miles.

Then build a new bridge over the river behind the village. The width of the new bridge should be able to drive two carriages side by side.

An inscription should be erected at the intersection, on which are engraved some related matters related to paving roads and bridges. From Yang Ruoqing's understanding, he wants to write his merits and deeds on the inscription one stroke at a time, so that future generations and the villagers who come and go Can see clearly.

Regarding these requests, there is nothing wrong with them. Anyone who pays for their own good deeds wants to hear their voices.

"Third Uncle, these are the specific regulations on road and bridge construction. Now that we have agreed, I will trouble you from tomorrow, as Li Zheng, to call on the enthusiastic villagers to help dig stones in the mountains. Dirt, felled wood."

Regarding this, Yang Huazhong didn't nod immediately, but said: "Yongxian, let me be straightforward. It stands to reason that you pay for the village to build roads and bridges. This is a great thing for the benefit of the village. As it should be."

"But because it's just in time for spring plowing, every household is so busy that they can't spare manpower, and digging stones and cutting trees just needs strong labor."

"So it's hard to call for this job without wages. If you hand over the project of building roads and bridges to the team of craftsmen in the village, it must be the same. The team of artisans brought here, the busy farming, coupled with the resistance of some villagers, it is definitely not feasible to recruit people to dig stones and cut trees for free. It would be good if there are three or five relatives who come here to help for a few days out of face gone."

Regarding the situation that Yang Huazhong said, Yang Yongxian actually considered it.

Of course he knew that handing over the business to craftsmen outside would easily offend the craftsmen in the village.

However, he is not simply paving roads and building bridges. There will be some ceremonies when the foundation is laid, and he does not want the villagers to know about those ceremonies, so it is better to use outside craftsmen to cultivate them by himself.

"Third Uncle, I have already paid for the welfare of the folks out of my own pocket. For such a small matter of preparing materials, big guys should also have the awareness to stretch out their hands, right? , Otherwise, wouldn’t it make me, a person who has earned money and returned to his hometown to do good deeds, feel cold?” Yang Yongxian asked.

Yang Huazhong nodded, indeed.

Yang Yongxian continued: "Just take Qing'er and the others to build the school on the back mountainside, and it was also for the benefit of the village. I remember that the big guys were very excited at that time, and they left their work to help build the school."

"It's also for the benefit of the villagers and future generations. Why can they be called to build a school, but they can't help me dig stones and cut down trees? At this point, I think it should be a test for you and the village elders. It's time for my appeal, I hope all the village elders here will support me!"
