Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 197
late at night!

The earth has fallen into a deep sleep, except for the occasional barking of a dog, the desolate Caogou Village is silent.

Four figures sneaked through the alley.

"Daquan, is what you said true?"

"It must be true. Otherwise, why did Li Hongbing suddenly return to the village, and spend money to buy land and hire people. You don't know what can be grown in our village. The corn in that broken land is not enough for fertilizers." money."

"What do you think will be in the field?"

"Maybe there is a big grave under our feet. When I was young, I heard from my grandfather that there used to be a prince buried in Yuanbao Mountain."

"Stop bragging, you, who doesn't know that your master is a stutterer and can't speak well, you are still a prince!"

"Shh, someone come out!"

Hearing the movement, these people hurriedly hid in the darkness.

The door of a courtyard was opened, and the owner poured a basin of water outside the door, directly drenching the four people hiding in the corner.

Wait until the gate closes.

These few people dared to move, and one of them babbled and suddenly said something.

"Well, Widow Liu just took a shower."

"How did you know?"

"There's hair in the water, it's in my mouth, curly."

"If you don't buy it, you can tell it apart."

"How is it? Is it delicious? What's the taste?"

"I'll give you a taste."

Li Daquan heard a few people talking nonsense for Genmao, and wanted to hit the wall speechlessly, and he was also in a daze, why did he find these two hundred and five.

"Keep your voice down. Give me that hair. Throw it away. It's important."

Taking advantage of the dark night and high winds, the four of them sneaked to the land of Li Shulin's house. This terraced field was located at the foot of the mountain, and the seedlings growing in the field were densely packed like grave bags.

"Woods, how long has it been since your house has been overturned?"

"For a few years, growing food was not enough, and the rotten grass turned over quickly."

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and work. If you dig something out tonight, it will be lively tomorrow morning. Let's see how Li Huaizhong ends up. Maybe he can step down. What do you think of me as the village chief?"

"I like it. If you become the village head, let me be the renting manager. I will go to Widow Liu's house to check the house every day."

"Hiss! The thorns of Lala Yang were stung in a panic, why did I choose this piece of broken land?"

"Let's not say a few words, the four of us only count the land of Shulin's house. Oh, I got stabbed too!"

The stems, branches, and petioles of Lalayang are all covered with barbed thorns. When the skin is scratched, it will be hot and painful. When it touches water, it will be very "stinging".

Both adults and children in rural areas hate it extremely, but the life of lalayang is very hard, it can grow in the soil, and once it grows a large area, it cannot be removed.

The four elders dug in the dark with hoes in the middle of the night, and the results were predictable.

In the big black sky where you can't see your fingers, there are creepy screams from the barren grass, and the dog has to run away with its tail between its ears.

The backyard of Li's old house.

The blind man and the fool soaked bags of vegetable seeds into the basin, and Li Hongbing was in charge of stirring the seeds, secretly injecting the power of the source into the seeds, but this time he did not invest too much power of the source, if the effect was too strong, it would easily cause the villagers Suspect.

Early the next morning.

At the rice farm at the entrance of the village, the employees who signed the employment contract yesterday walked into the rice farm in twos and threes with farm tools.

Two wives gong at the same time, three wives play a play, and the scene of more than 30 wives together is not to mention how lively it is, chattering non-stop.

Men stood by the paddy field, smoking cigarettes and gossiping.

"Uncle Hongbing is not recruiting for work, it's the same as the emperor's selection of concubines."

"Changshun, what if Uncle Red Soldier chooses your wife?"

"Uncle Hong Soldier can take a fancy to my son, if he wants to choose, he should choose Ernizi. Look at that butt, he is appointed to give birth to a son."

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let Widow Liu hear, she can tear down the roof of your house."

"Hey, look, it's not Daquan and the others, they all have swollen faces like Lalayang crawling over."

The men turned their gazes to the four people who came out of the alley. Their faces and arms were covered with tangled blood and a little swollen.

The four of Li Daquan walked to the side of the paddy field in embarrassment under the many sneering eyes, and when they saw the woman in the paddy field, they deliberately laughed loudly out of unwillingness.

"Uncle Hongbing is unusual. With so many wives, he takes care of one of them a day, and it takes a month to complete his turn."

The woods on the side, Changjun, and Siping also booed.

"It's not too bad. I think our Caogou Village should be renamed Green Hat Village."

"This name is good, it will increase the knowledge of people in the forest area."

"I don't know if Uncle Red Soldier can stand up to his progress. How about I go and do a favor, and Er Nizi will be fine."

The smiles of the men standing aside froze for an instant, and anger slowly surfaced on their faces. They were all from the same village, so they needed to speak so harshly, especially these four people were still stinky shit from the village.

Li Daquan, Liu Changjun, Luo Siping, and Li Shulin, the four of them occupy Caogou Village's most hated list and are tied for No.1.

Small-minded, love to take advantage of small things, eat too much and be lazy, sneak around, gamble, drink and beat their wives, the four of them have all the basic rural people's vices.

Hitting them makes your hands dirty, like a pile of stinky dog ​​shit, stepping on it and getting yourself dirty.

Seeing that the villagers were silent, Da Daquan and the others became more arrogant, laughing and pointing at the women in the rice field.

Sudden.

Hearing Li Shulin's oops, he jumped forward like a dog eating shit, lying on the ground, and his face just happened to be slapped on a bubble of dog shit.

"Who?" The remaining three people turned around with shaking faces.

Li Hongqi, Jianjun, Shengli, Xiucai and a few juniors looked at the three of them with a smile, especially Li Hongqi deliberately rubbed his shoes on the ground.

"Oops, stepped on dog shit."

Li Shulin got up, wiped the shit off his face, and stared viciously at Li Hongqi who kicked him.

There are two groups of people in the village, a group of village sneakers and a group of stinky dog ​​shit, who met unexpectedly on the rice field.

As the saying goes, enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.

On weekdays, they look down on each other, and try to fight when they get the chance.

"Hongqi, why, I didn't play enough last time." Li Daquan's expression was not good. Although he was of the same generation as Li Hongqi's father, he had a bad reputation. He, even the children of Tiedan's gang dared to call him Li Xinyan.

Li Hongqi clenched his fists tightly, his bones made a rattling sound, and said provocatively, "Practice, practice, last time someone stopped me, and I didn't enjoy the beating."

In the same way, when the army was built and won, the scholar's expression was eager to try, giving the impression that as long as Li Daquan dared to nod in agreement, he would immediately beat up these four idiots.

Li Daquan has self-knowledge, and he is not afraid of fighting, but the three dog teammates behind him are not up to the mark, one is lazy, one is a bad gambler, and one is a drunkard.

At critical times, you should be counseled and you must be counseled, so as to save yourself a meal.

"Forget it, uncle is not as knowledgeable as you, so you can't afford to provoke him, and you can afford to hide from the head office."

Then he took the three dog teammates to the other side.

"Bah! Stinky shit."

Li Hongqi looked at the four people walking away with contempt.

"What are they doing? Let's go there first." Shengli patted Hongqi on the shoulder, led Jianjun, and Xiucai into the rice field.

Li Hongqi watched his partner leave enviously. If the village hadn't asked him to be a renting manager, he would have followed Brother Hongbing to do whatever he wanted.

……

Li Hongbing rode Heifeng, and the blind man and silly boy rode three-wheeled motorcycles to the paddy field.

When the villagers saw the boss coming, they giggled and gave way.

Li Hongbing glanced roughly.

They are basically familiar, and they are all women, but the simple farm work of growing vegetables is not a big problem for them.

Without much gossip, he went straight to the stone platform.

"Be quiet and listen to me."

As soon as the words fell, the paddy field became quiet in an instant, and pairs of curious eyes turned to Shitai.

"First of all, welcome to Oak Tree Company. You are not outsiders. I'm here to say something ugly. We have to work hard, and we can't cheat."

"This is not a big pot meal. The company has its own regulations. There is a one-month trial period. If you fail, don't blame me for kicking you out. After all, my money didn't come from the wind."

"If you do a good job, the basic salary plus bonus is guaranteed to be no more than what you get at a construction site in the city."

"If you think it's inappropriate, you can leave now. I'll tear up the contract you signed. If you want to leave in the future, I'll use the contract as an argument. Think about it clearly."

After speaking, Li Hongbing closed his mouth.

Among the crowd in the audience, a villager raised his hand.

"Uncle Hongbing, what are the rules, can you tell me?"

Regulation!

What are the rules.

I'm just talking casually.

Li Hongbing was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and could only make a few temporary remarks.

"First of all, the working hours are from 8:11 am to 3:5 am and from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm."

"The content of the job is to loosen the soil, weed, and irrigate. By the way, chemical fertilizers are not allowed to be used in my vegetables, and farmyard manure can be used."

"That's all for now, I'll talk about it later."

This is the rule?
It feels like saying nothing.

People in rural areas get up when the rooster crows, and they usually do the same when farming.

How do you feel that being a worker is the same as not being a worker?

"Brother Hongbing, what are we doing now?" Xiucai asked loudly.

What?
Li Hongbing took the shovel handed by the blind man with a smile, jumped off the stone platform, and walked towards the entrance of the village, talking as he walked.

"Turn up the ground. The grass growing in the ground is half the height of a person. How can you grow vegetables without tilling the ground?"

The crowd laughed.

Pick up the farm tools and walk behind Li Hongbing.

In the fresh morning, the sun shines on the leaves through the air, and the sunshine is everywhere.

A group of people marched into the terraced fields in a mighty manner. The grand scene gave many people an illusion, as if they had returned to the prosperous collective era of the production team. , everyone works together.

Working hard during the day and fighting at night, turning mountains into terraced fields and wasteland into fertile fields, with many people, wisdom, enthusiasm, and drive.

Walking to the head of the field, the villagers held farm tools, "Uncle Hong Soldier, why did the land turn over?"

Turning it by hand is still a question.

Li Hongbing turned his head to understand what they said.

Now the land in the village is contracted by myself.

Ask me how to turn it, is there a problem?

no problem!

Looking at the terraced fields coiled from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, Li Hongbing waved his hand.

"Start digging from the foot of the mountain, and try to finish digging all the ground in three days."

240 mu of land can be done with machinery in one day.

However, the conditions in Caogou Village do not allow it. These terraced fields were dug out by the ancestors along the mountain with hoes in the early years, resulting in long and narrow fields and no machinery at all.

We can only turn the soil bit by bit by hand, and dig out the grass roots completely to prevent the roots from taking root and sprouting if the turnover is not thorough.

This kind of delicate work can turn over an acre of land by one person in a day.

Li Hongbing started to work hard with a shovel, he turned over the ground very fast, and gradually some men came to Li Hongbing's side, secretly competing.

Money is no match for Uncle Red Soldier.

Farming does not leave him a few villages.

Seeing the movement of the men, Li Hongbing raised the corners of his mouth slightly, speeding up the speed of digging.

For a while, 7 or 8 men on the terraced fields wielded shovels and hoes, and each of them occupied a field to compete.

Seeing that there was a lot of excitement to watch, other villagers gathered around one after another, cheering and encouraging.

If this scene was placed in the early years, it would be nothing. The big competition among members would be staged every day, but now who is idle, the basket hurts, and the competition is farming.

With that kind of effort, I can't plow at night, maybe I can grow a baby in the next year,

Amidst the cheers, the competition became more and more intense.

No one would admit defeat, the shovels and hoes swished loudly, Jianjun and Xiucai were the first to be eliminated, clutching their sore shoulders and shaking their heads, looking at Brother Hongbing with more and more admiration.

To say that they are no better than Uncle Da Kui, Uncle Fu Sheng, and Uncle De Fa. They have been farming all their lives, and their bones are made of soil, but they can't beat Brother Red Soldier. This is a bit embarrassing.

By the way, there are also fools!
He is not a human being, he is an animal, he is a plow, and we can turn over half an acre of land at most, and he can turn over an acre of land by himself without making a sound.

On the side of the field, the wives pointed at the men who were competing, covering their mouths and giggling from time to time, and the thin-skinned women blushed, lowered their heads in embarrassment and then secretly looked up.

"It can't be seen that Uncle Hongbing is really hard at work, and he dumped those men's half an acre of land."

"What's wrong, my heart is itching, your man went to the city for half a year, is the field very dry?"

"What's the matter with the drought, who can compare with you, the man farms the land during the day and plows the land at night, the drought dies, and the flood dies."

"Go and tell Uncle Red Soldier if you're in a drought, and let him plow the land for two nights to keep you beautiful."

Having said that, Xiu'e's sister-in-law violently pushed another woman left behind in the village out, giggling.

"Uncle Red Soldier, Miss Suxiang said she was suffering from severe drought and asked you to plow the land."

"You are going to die! Look at my mother's immortal mouth."

Immediately, a group of women on the field ridge were fighting and making noise, very lively.

If they interrupt, the game will not go on.

Li Hongbing shook his head and smiled wryly, these wives would drive when they got together, they didn't care about meat and vegetables, and they didn't look at them, and there were children beside them.

"blind!"

"Grandpa!" The blind man walked up to him holding a hoe.

"Go to the construction site and tell Aunt Guifeng to cook more meals. Today is the first day of work at the company, so I have to eat a good meal. Don't be reluctant to let go of the meat. Farming is physical work, and it can't be done without oil and water. "

After finishing speaking, Li Hongbing greeted the villagers again, "Don't leave at noon, just have a working meal in the field, there is enough meat."

Europe! !

The villagers happily raised their farm tools and cheered.

Who doesn't know that the food at Uncle Hong Soldier's house is the best in the whole village and the whole forest area.

Eat meat every meal without heavy samples.

Eat a piece, lose a piece.
