I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 111 Is This the New Luoyang Shovel for Well Drilling?
Block the estuary to store water!
Block the outlet of the river, so that the river can only flow in, and naturally, the water in the river will stay and will not dry up.

It turned out to be this answer.

But in this river, there are still boats coming and going?

The young man in lanshan also thought of this, suddenly raised his hand, pointed at the boats in the river, and questioned: "No! How do the boats in the river come and go? They can only go in and out?"

Ha ha!The old fisherman couldn't help laughing, he sounded like a stranger from outside, and he had never seen the world.

"Of course it's not just going in and out, there's a gantry!"

Gantry?
What is that?

The middle-aged Ge Yi couldn't help frowning a little. He had just received an answer, but a new question immediately appeared.

Blocking the mouth of the river, the boats in the river can still come and go freely, is it because of this gantry?

Seeing their appearance, the old fisherman couldn't help laughing with his teeth bared: "You follow the river bank and turn to the southwest, and you will arrive at the entrance of Zhangkou. The dragon gate is erected at the entrance of Zhangkou!"

"Yeah! I see." The middle-aged Ge Yi nodded in agreement, and cupped his hands again: "Thank you for your guidance, old man."

But at this time, the sun was almost setting, and it seemed that he couldn't leave, so he had to stay here overnight.

Thinking of this, he asked the old fisherman again, is there any headman in the village?
"Yes!" The old fisherman nodded and agreed without thinking: "You follow this canal to the east, and there is a waterway station opened by the government."

Then, several people followed the old man's guidance to the waterway station.

Not far away, I saw the post flag hanging high on the flag, fluttering in the wind.

The last rays of the setting sun were shining on the banners, which was very conspicuous.

Moreover, along the way, there were boatmen docking their boats on the shore from time to time, and then rushed to the post station in front of them in twos and threes.

As they walked, they chatted with each other from time to time.From the looks of it, they are both boat runners, so they should all know each other.

In addition, there are several rough men, each of whom is carrying a long strange object with a strange shape, connected by a long pole, and its purpose is unknown.

It was only when I got closer that I realized that the station was not small, and it was not a duplex structure, but three rows of houses side by side, with more than ten houses in each row.

At the entrance to the north is a hall for people to eat and drink.The middle-aged Ge Yi stopped at the door, seeing the crowded scene inside, he couldn't help frowning.

A group of boatmen are all crowded in one hall, one can imagine the smell.

He hesitated a lot, but finally gritted his teeth and went in.Gein, he knew very well that the more this messy place where fish and snakes mixed up, the more news would flow.

"Father..." The young man in lanshan was also hesitant, but seeing his father go in, he could only bite the bullet and follow.

After entering, I found that this is a wooden hall with a thatched roof, supported by several columns, and the inside is quite spacious, with a few simple wooden tables and chairs arranged in a haphazard manner.

At this time, a lot of people were already sitting in twos and threes, eating and messing around with homework.

"Ouch! Fifth Zhao, you old boy! You, a famous money rake in ten miles and eight towns, are willing to come down from Zhangshui?"

"Haha! Third Xu, didn't you come down from Zhangshui too!" The one who answered was the strong man carrying the strange things at the head.

"I can't do it if I don't come back. The mother-in-law is pregnant again, and she's very upset. I'm also worried about it. I happened to be passing by, so I came back to have a look.

It's you Xu Laosan, you haven't seen him for half a year, right?Why are you willing to come back today? "

The man called Xu Laosan, who was reluctant to let go of the strange things on his shoulders, just stood there and replied: "These days I am making a living under the hands of Liu Er, the shopkeeper of Fuxing Company, and I am transporting new Luoyang shovels to the side of Kuizhou Road. .”

While talking, he shook the strange things on his shoulders: "No, my brother's house belongs to Lujiazhuang, and there is also a drought there!

My uncle knew that I had some contacts, so he came here twice and asked me to buy this new Luoyang shovel for drilling wells for their village.

It just so happened that I was fairly familiar with shopkeeper Liu Er, so I asked him to give me a few hands. "

Good guy!
When everyone in the room heard that it was a new-style Luoyang shovel for drilling wells, they all cheered and surrounded them: "Ah! Is this the Luoyang shovel for drilling wells?"

"Don't say it, it's true!"

This time, Xu Laosan and the others who were carrying the shovel were taken aback. They quickly put the new Luoyang shovel in their arms and shouted anxiously: "Don't squeeze! Don't squeeze! This is a precious thing!"

The new Luoyang shovel for drilling wells!

Is it that strange thing they carry on their shoulders?
That is, the thing that people say by word of mouth that a well can be dug in two hours?
Hearing the words, Ge Yi's middle-aged son couldn't help but exchanged glances with his elder son, both of whom could see the meaning in each other's eyes.

Immediately he stood up, looked over there, and squeezed over, wanting to take a good look.

But Xu Laosan and the others held them tightly in their arms, and shouted very anxiously: "You guys can have a look, don't touch it. This is transported to Kuizhou Road, according to the instructions of my shopkeeper and Liu Er." Friendship, this is just a few sets."

A voice suddenly sounded: "Hey! I heard that this Fuxing company took these new Luoyang shovels to Kuizhou Road to make a fortune!"

"Put your mother's dog fart!" When Xu Laosan heard this, he immediately became impatient, and stared at the man: "The Fuxing company transported these new Luoyang shovels all the way to Kuizhou Road. Just earn a hard-earned money!

According to shopkeeper Liu Er, their boss is a bodhisattva, and he can't bear to see those bitter families ruined.

We ran towards Kuizhou Road all day, but it was very clear! "

The man was speechless for a moment, he didn't dare to respond, and sat down in embarrassment.

At this time, a man in a soap suit came in from the outside, and when he saw Xu Laosan, he immediately smiled and greeted loudly: "Third cousin! When did you come back?"

When Xu Laosan saw him, he also laughed: "Isn't it just arrived? Come in for a meal, and you have to leave before dawn! The big boat is still waiting at Zhangshuikou."

While talking, he handed him the new Luoyang shovel in his hand: "Hey! This is what my uncle asked him to bring back, and you will give it to him tomorrow.

There are still a few, you take it back to my house and give it to your sister-in-law.Her natal family is waiting for emergency help! "

"Hey!" The man in soap suit took the new Luoyang shovel with a smile, and promised, "Don't worry! Third cousin, I will send someone to bring it to my sister-in-law tomorrow morning.

This means that my father is also impatient, the government's new Luoyang shovel is broken, you just wait for them to fix it!You have to pay for it yourself! "

"What do you know!" Xu Laosan slapped him with a smile, and then preached: "It's just a severe drought. Without this well-drilling tool, Uncle is not at ease."

"Third brother is right! It just so happens that the well at the west end of the village is out of water, and I just use this shovel to dig another well tomorrow."

Hearing the words, Ge Yi's middle-aged man couldn't help but his eyes brightened. If that's the case, then he won't be in a hurry to leave tomorrow, so he can go to the village to see and see.
