Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 228

The pool of mountain spring water on the mountainside has a relatively strong flow. Her family has no problem diverting the water, but if it is diverted to the east of the village, it will have to bypass more than half of the village. Rong Jiu is afraid that the mountain spring water will be almost infiltrated by then. Even if the water is brought over, it won't be much.

Rong Jiuben also thought about using bamboo pipes to divert water, but the bamboo pipes are so big, and such a large wasteland, when will it be irrigated? When the farming season is busy, won't it delay farming?

If only there was cement.

Looking at the vast wasteland, Rong Jiu frowned.

The village chief looked at the expression on her face and asked, "Jiu Niang, you have a good brain and know how to divert water. Besides building the reservoir, is there any other way?"

Rong Jiudao: "Build a canal to bring water from the mountain spring not far from my house to the farmland, but this canal must be paved with bluestone bricks."

The village head took a puff of dry tobacco.

How many bluestone bricks are needed to draw water from the mountainside?Compared with building a reservoir, laying bluestone bricks obviously saves a lot.

For such a big matter, the village chief can't decide on his own: "I'll go back and discuss it with the elders in the village."

Rong Jiu nodded.

After returning to Shen's house, Mrs. Li and Shen Dafu were moving. Seeing that they had packed a lot of land, Rong Jiu couldn't help laughing and said, "Mother, there are everything in the medicine shop, pots, pans and pans." I asked Yunniang to buy new ones for quilts and so on, let's just bring a few sets of clothes over there."

"It's not easy for you to make money. How can you buy new ones for everything? How much will it cost? These can still be used."

"If you have money and don't spend it, then what is the money for, mother, you and father don't feel sorry for me, our family is not short of money."

Jiu Niang is simply her caring little padded jacket, very heart-warming, Li smiled: "Succeed, from now on, your father and I will enjoy happiness with you."

Rong Jiu helped Mrs. Li pack up everyone's clothes, and then moved to the medicine shop, Gu San's family also moved in, and the others moved to the medicine field.

At noon, Shen Wenyuan brought fruit into the workshop, and brought back many fruit trees, including apricot, pear, peach, loquat, osmanthus, and lychee trees.

Rong Jiu's eyes lit up, and he said pleasantly, "Second brother, where did you find the lychee tree?"

Shen Wenyuan directed his servants to plant the fruit trees in the workshop, and said with a smile, "There are litchi trees in the Su family's orchard in Le County, and I asked Steward Su for two."

Litchi can stop hiccups and diarrhea, regulate qi and blood, whet the appetite and invigorate the spleen. It is perfect for wine making.

The village head discussed with the clan elders, and everyone agreed to open canals to divert water, and then convened the villagers to discuss. This is a good thing for future generations. No one will object. Every household should contribute as much as they can. Rong Jiu added.

Except for Wang's family, the only people in the village that are passable are the village chief's family and Mrs. Song's family. The village chief knows that if this canal is really going to be repaired, it will be almost all paid by Jiuniang.

The village chief said, "Jiu Niang, this is not a small sum."

Rong Jiu smiled and said, "Do your best for the village, it should."

Rong Jiu also has her own plans in mind, she is now brewing wine, refining medicine, and making soap, which has already aroused the jealousy of many people, and the Zhao family even secretly sent Wang Baozhu to steal the formula.

There will only be more such things in the future, and it will be even more difficult to prevent. If she can bring benefits to the villagers, even if someone with a heart wants to start with the villagers, it will not be so easy.

In the next few days, Rong Jiu was either surveying the terrain in the village or drawing blueprints in the house. If he didn't plan it first, it would be a waste of time and manpower during construction, and the canals he built might not be easy to use.

Ever since they knew they were going to dig a canal to bring water to the wasteland in the east of the village, the villagers were very excited. Three or five people got together and discussed how to dig a canal to divert water. Some people were full of expectations for Rong Jiu, while Some people gloated and waited to see Rong Jiu's joke.
