Chapter 34: Regret
Gao Zhi also followed and lay down by the well. When he saw water coming out of it, he immediately laughed loudly.
Shen Yi climbed out of the well and saw the two of them ecstatic, unable to laugh at all, "Water has come out, but it is similar to the amount of water originally dug out of Dongmen Village and Ximen Village. Now it has been dug very deep. Keep digging." It's the same going down. This amount of water will not be a problem to supply your whole village, but it will be a bit difficult to use for spring plowing. "
These words were like a basin of cold water, pouring down the heart of the old couple.
Mrs. Liu was anxious, "What should we do? It's been delayed now, we must plow the spring immediately, otherwise it will be too late!"
Shen Yi looked solemn, "It's not that I won't help you. I want to see the situation in Dongmen Village and Ximen Village. Their water output was small at the beginning. It took a long time for the water volume to increase. Only Dongmen Village had a large increase in water volume. Village, Zhongmen Village is not that exaggerated. I guess the groundwater in your area should be very deep and unevenly distributed. Only by opening a hole can the water have a chance to come up. As for how long this will take, no one knows "
Gao Zhi instantly collapsed on the ground, burst into tears, and regretted, "If only I didn't have such a good face at the beginning, I would dig a well with everyone!"
Mrs. Liu felt even more uncomfortable, but she still wanted to comfort the old man, "Forget it, it's all fate! Others have advised me, but they didn't listen and were still being clever. It's God's blessing to have such a well now!"
After saying that, Mrs. Liu took out another two taels of silver from her arms and handed it to Shen Yi, "Master Shen, thank you for your hard work today."
Shen Yi had been working for so long, but he was not polite. He collected the money generously and led Su Tai out of the village.
After they left, Gao Zhicai called the villagers home and explained the situation.
The villagers were so remorseful that they jumped up and beat their chests. Some people who liked to shirk their responsibilities immediately pointed their guns at Xiong Kai, "It's all your fault! Master Shen will come to our village area tomorrow, and you have to cut off people and money!" If it weren't for your mischief and Master Shen's intervention, our village would already have enough water!"
"Yes, yes! Xiong Kai must give us an explanation!"
The villagers began to attack Xiong Kai.
Everyone in the Xiong family and Mo family changed their faces.
Xiong Kai was unconvinced and argued with reason, "Didn't you say nothing when I did this? Now that I'm settling the score, you have taken advantage of everything! Our Xiong family is weak, but we are not easy to bully!"
"Who bullied you? We are telling the truth!"
Mo Laotian came forward with a calm face and said, "Everyone, please calm down. This is the end of the matter. We should rush to spring plowing and wait until after planting."
"Hmph! You snakes and rats are working together in a tangle, so naturally you are talking to the bear!" A woman spat angrily, turned around and walked away angrily.
Others cursed and left.
Xiong Kai jumped angrily and wanted to fight with them, but was stopped by the Xiong family and Mo family, and a group of people followed and left the village chief's house.
Mrs. Liu was very tired. She wanted to complain to Gao Zhi, but she found that Gao Zhi had aged several years. He swallowed the words and just sighed, "Shen Yi and Miss Su are really well matched. Xiong Kai and Mo Chunxiang also match well!"
Takashi became increasingly silent.
Here, Shen Yi sent Su Tai home and hurried back to Shenjiazhuang.
The crops in the fields need watering, and they cannot do without people during this time.
On the Su family's side, Su Chunlin and his family finally planted all the wheat, leaving six acres of poor farmland and two acres of sandy land without anything to grow.
Nowadays, grain seeds are too expensive, and it would be a waste to plant them in such fields, but it is not a problem to just leave them there.
Su Chunlin brought up this issue while eating.
Su Tai thought that the wheat in earth time and space would be harvested in a few days, so she whispered: "Dad, don't worry, we will go to Shenjiazhuang to find Brother Shen later. He can buy some different vegetable seeds."
Su Chunlin nodded, not doubting Su Tai's words at all.
It’s the day when the wheat in earth time and space is harvested. Su Tai once again lived a life of reversed day and night. She worked while others slept, and she slept while others worked. Fortunately, no one at home expected her to do anything, and no one disliked her for being lazy.
Three hundred and fifty kilograms of wheat from less than an acre of land ended up in her hands. She kept one hundred kilograms and sold the rest to the automatic trading cabinet. One kilogram was worth 5 virtual coins, which gave her 1,250 coins.
Seeing this balance, Su Tai felt that all the hard work during this period was worth it.
With money in hand, she felt particularly confident when she stepped into the seed store again. According to what she had learned from Shen Yi before, combined with the few acres of barren fields at home, she finally chose a seed that was drought-resistant, resistant to diseases and insect pests. And high-yielding soybean and peanut seeds.
One acre of land requires three to five kilograms of soybean seeds and twenty kilograms of peanut seeds.
The boss chose relatively expensive seeds for her, costing her a total of four hundred and seventy coins. The unheated virtual coins suddenly changed from four digits to three digits.
In order to upgrade the soil space as soon as possible, she decided to continue growing cabbage this time and had to buy some cabbage seeds.
Fortunately, she didn't ask for much, so the boss generously gave her a package without taking any money.
After Su Tai finished her work in Tushikongdi, she went to Shenjiazhuang with Su Chunlin.
This time, father and daughter did not come empty-handed, but picked a basket of wild vegetables along the way.
When we arrived at Shen Yi's house, the wild vegetables were a little wilted.
Su Chunlin is thick-skinned and will not be embarrassed at all.
Su Tai had ulterior motives and didn't care about wild vegetables.
Shen Yi stared at the basket of wild vegetables and looked at Su Tai doubtfully, "Eat this?"
Su Tai nodded, holding the tea comfortably, and whispered to Shen Yi: "I want to ask you for a favor."
Shen Yi is familiar with things first time and second time, and now he has experience in covering for Su Tai. He only needs Su Tai to raise his head and he knows how to cooperate.
The two sang and harmonized, making Su Chunlin confused.
Looking at those peanut and soybean seeds, Su Chunlin asked dazedly: "Can we really grow peanuts and soybeans here?"
It’s not that there are no peanuts and soybeans in Langya Country, it’s just that no one cultivates them in their territory. I heard that there are people who cultivate them in small prefectures and counties in the southeast, but they are still expensive things that are difficult to maintain and difficult to live.
Some people have been working hard for a year, but in the end they have achieved nothing. Gradually, no one is messing around anymore.
Shen Yi glanced at Su Tai and nodded firmly, "Don't worry, uncle, I won't trick you. This is a new seed. If my family didn't have poor farmland, I wouldn't give the seed to you."
"Hey! Then I have to give you money." Su Chunlin pretended to take out the money.
Shen Yi hurriedly stopped, "Uncle, don't worry. Although I was told that it will be planted, you haven't planted it yet. I don't dare to take the money. When it is actually planted later, you can give me the same amount of soybeans in exchange." And peanuts, okay?”
Su Chunlin thought for a while and said: "If it is really planted, I will pay you back twice as much! I will definitely not let you suffer a loss!"
"Sure! Just do as you say."
Sorry, the update is too fast. Dear friends, I will update two chapters a day in the past few days, and I will release more chapters later.
