Infrastructure: I survive in troubled times

Chapter 324 Report to the official? (four more)
"Enter the village, enter the village, I will make room for you." Patriarch Yang looked at Hong Lianshuo and the others nervously and said.

"No, no, you just need to tell us where the water source is and where to go to cut firewood. We won't enter the village." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with big watery eyes hidden under the long eyelashes like crow feathers. Said.

"There is a stream in the village, you can fetch water." Lu Dahai hurriedly said, "As for firewood, there are mountains and forests, you can do whatever you want."

"Thank you." Hong Lianshuo said, looking at her with blazing eyes.

Lu Dahai suddenly looked at her at a loss and said, "No, no." Then he said, "I will guide you in a while."

It was the first time someone said thank you to him, and he didn't know how to move his nervous hands and feet.

"Where can the sea rise when the tide rises?" Hong Lianshuo raised his eyebrows and looked at them and said.

"You can't get here. Look, all our fishing nets are here!" Lu Dahai said hastily when he heard the words, pointing to the fishing nets not far from him.

"What about the high tide on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year?" Hong Lianshuo looked at Haidao with his eyes as black as ink.

"That's not going to rise. When the wind is the strongest, the waves are so high that they don't reach here." Lu Dahai hurriedly replied.

"Thank you." Hong Lianshuo looked at Han Qinhu beside him and said, "Let's settle down here!"

"Yes!" Han Qinhu clasped his hands, and then called his brothers to take down the tent from the cart and set up camp.

The villagers watched Hong Lianshuo and his actions, and clasped their hands, "You guys are busy! Let's leave."

Lu Dahai walked up to Patriarch Yang and whispered, "I'll stay for a while and take them to fetch water and chop firewood."

"Yeah!" Patriarch Yang nodded, and was dragged away by the juniors.

"Can I help you?" Lu Dahai rubbed his hands and stood still.

"No need." Hong Lianshuo smiled gently.

"You're welcome." Lu Dahai said with a stiff smile on his face.

"I won't be polite to you." Hong Lianshuo looked up at the sun in the sky and said, "Can I go into the water to catch fish now?"

"Yes, yes." Lu Haihai nodded repeatedly,
"It's just that the weather is cold and it's easy to get sick. If you want to eat fish, we can go to sea now."

"Can we catch fish now?" Han Qinhu looked at him in surprise and said.

"Yes!" Lu Dahai said solemnly.

"Is there enough time?" Hong Lianshuo asked worriedly.

"It's too late, I'll definitely be back in the evening." Lu Dahai said, looking at the sun in the sky.

"Then let's go." Hong Lianshuo looked at him with excitement in his eyes and said.

"Ms. Hong?" Han Qinhu hurriedly said after hearing the words, it's not good to go so hastily!
Hong Lianshuo gave him a reassuring look, "I'll go explore the way first."

"You have the letter, follow Mrs. Hong." Han Qinhu helplessly looked at Hong Lianshuo who was eager to try and had no choice but to shout.

"Yes!" Han Youxin put down the engineering shovel in his hand and said nothing.

"Let's go!" Hong Lianshuo looked at Lu Haihai and said.

"I'm going to prepare, you wait a moment." Lu Dahai said while running, "You wait for me on the trestle bridge." Pointing to the wooden bridge not far ahead, stretching to the sea.

"Okay!" Hong Lianshuo replied with a smile.

Han Qinhu looked at Hong Lianshuo with a dark face and said displeasedly, "Miss Hong, the situation in this sea is unknown, how can you take risks?"

"Even if there are any changes, I can swim back." Hong Lianshuo said relaxedly, "Don't worry. Just ask about the situation in the village on the boat."

"You can inquire about the situation without going fishing!" Han Qinhu looked at her dissatisfied and said.

"We don't bring that much food, we rely on the sea to eat the sea!" Hong Lianshuo kindly reminded him.

"Then you don't have to take the risk yourself!" Han Qinhu looked at her displeasedly and said.

"I won't talk to you anymore, we'll go if we have a letter." Hong Lianshuo got a headache from his nagging, and slipped away, "I won't act recklessly, I cherish my little life very much." He said as he retreated.

Han Qinhu looked helplessly at her as she walked further and further away, and urged them to quickly set up a tent.

Lu Dahai rode the boat to the foot of the trestle bridge, threw the reins to them, and said to the boat against the trestle bridge, "Come down!"

Hong Lianshuo jumped down and stood firmly on the boat.

And Han Youxin jumped on it like a model, he was really wobbly, and almost fell into the sea.

"Be careful, be careful." Hong Lianshuo quickly helped him to sit down, "It's done."

"Ms. Hong's boat is more swaying than rafting on the lake." Han Youxin said with a downcast face, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and get in.

Lu Dahai looked at him amusedly, it was really his first time to go to sea.

"Whether you want to go up or not, I can go by myself." Hong Lianshuo said as he looked at the white-knuckles holding onto the side of the boat, how much force it would take!

"No, small ones are fine." Han Youxin insisted.

Anyway, it's close to the shore, so I can't do it anymore, so I'll come back.

Hong Lianshuo thought for a while and said, "That's fine!" He looked up at Lu Haihai and said, "Let's go!"

"You sit down." Lu Dahai watched him sit down, and then moved towards the sea with the oar.

In the ancestral hall, Patriarch Yang was carried by the younger generation and placed on the grass dumpling.

"Patriarch Yang, what should we do now?"

"They have knives and guns."

"It seems that in addition to fully cooperating with others, I can't fight hard!"

"Why don't we report to the police!"

Patriarch Yang came to his senses and roared, "Don't report to the officials."

"Suddenly a group of people appeared. The origin is unknown. I don't know if it is good or bad?"

"That official is a good one!" Patriarch Yang looked at them sharply and said, "Besides, there are only so many people in the county town plus guards. If you are facing off against the people outside, isn't that going up to seek death?"

"That's right! That bastard in the city only knows tax, tax, tax, and he's active in collecting money! I wish we could vacate our house."

"The official has two mouthfuls. If you enter the gate of his yamen, no matter what you do, you have to pay first. We really have to report to the official, why don't we give them money first?"

"Then what should we do? What if it's really a bandit!"

"Woooo..." Patriarch Yang quickly covered his mouth with his eyes and hands, "Little bastard is going to die, dare to yell like this, what should I do if I'm heard?"

"Haiwazi is right! What if he is really a bandit?"

Haiwazi pointed to Patriarch Yang's hand and said, "Ah..."

Patriarch Yang let go of his hand, and Haiwazi called out, "Daddy." He lowered his voice and said, "It's not impossible that I said, brother Yang Fan also guessed the same way."

"Have you ever seen such a polite person..." Patriarch Yang paused before asking, "Human?"

"Their leader is still a woman."

"Does this woman dare to kill a chicken?"

"Why don't you dare, my mother is proficient at killing chickens and fish!"
