After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

"No more, no more, no more is too much! I can eat it." Bai Manshan happily reported his wealth: "A cunning rabbit has three holes, let alone us people?

Outsiders only think that the Bai family's fields are distributed in Nandu. In fact, Nandu accounts for less than [-]% of the fields.

In Nanning Prefecture, next door to Quang Ninh Prefecture, there is a Ma Ya Lake, which is equivalent to a natural reservoir. It is surrounded by [-] acres of fertile farmland! The land is infinite.

And precisely because of the natural reservoir of Ma Ya Lake, it is convenient to water in the dry season and store water in the rainy season. It has always been the largest supplier of our Bai family grain store. "

Speaking of his precautions and careful planning, Bai Manshan couldn't hide his joy.

Plus a little bit of pride.

Li Huyu didn't look at it.

She shouldn't have held back the tea for him just now, so as not to show off in front of her friends and embarrass her now.

Bai Manshan received his wife's gaze and quickly suppressed his complacency.

He thought aggrievedly that he didn't show off in front of everyone, so he thought Shui Qing and the two were trustworthy people.

The corners of Shui Qing's mouth rose again and again, and it was extremely hard to endure.

I thought of a natural reservoir and asked: "Is the lake a reservoir formed between two mountains?"

Bai Manshan was surprised: "Have you been there?"

Jian Shuiqing shook his head, knowing what she had guessed, and explained: "It is between two mountains. A dam was built in front of it to store water in the rainy season and release it in the dry season, so the harvest there has always been good."

Shuiqing thought for a while, then carried the old village chief out as an excuse and said, "The old village chief said that winter is abnormal and there may be heavy rains in summer. If the reservoir has insufficient water storage capacity, floods will spread."

Thinking of the dam collapse caused by heavy rains and floods in China decades ago, killing tens of thousands of people and affecting countless others, I quickly stopped.

It shouldn't be that serious.

Bai Manshan took it seriously.

He frowned and thought for a while, and then thought of a way to deal with it: "There is Yubei Mountain opposite, which is higher than the reservoir. Now the seedlings have been planted. It is the slack season for farming. I will go to the village and ask the men to build ten trees on Yubei Mountain. A few thatched houses and tree houses came out.

Build a few more stoves and put some food on them. If the rainy season this year is like usual, just wait until it passes and then carry the food back;

If it rains heavily, move to the mountains quickly! "

Shui Qing looked at Bai Manshan and realized at this moment that he deserved to be the richest man in Nandu!

Action, execution, and coping abilities are all strong.

"If the seedlings in the field are damaged, they will be damaged. Our Bai family can still afford the loss. Nothing can happen to anyone. As long as there are people around, there is hope." Bai Manshan stood up and handed over to the two of them: "I wanted to have lunch before leaving. I’m just worried, I’ll make arrangements first and we’ll meet up another day.”

Shui Qing and Fan Jinwei really didn't expect that Bai Manshan would just leave.

I didn't expect that he originally planned to come back today.

The two stood up, wanting to persuade them to stay, but afraid of delaying their business.

"I'll bake you some egg pancakes for you to eat on the way!" Shui Qing said as he walked out.

Li Huyu grabbed her and said, "Bring more! And my share."

Shui Qing: ...This couple is really on the same page.

Li Huyu turned to her husband and said, "You are alone outside without anyone you trust. Let's work together. You use your brain and I will do the work!"

"...it is good."

Bai Ziqian didn't know where he was running away, and Bai Manshan and Li Huyu didn't have time to care.

He only told Fan Jin and Shui Qing not to spoil him, do the work that should be done, and punish him if he makes a mistake.

After giving instructions, the carriage was loaded with food prepared by Shui Qing, and he drove away without stopping in the carriage.

It came in a hurry, and it left even more urgently.

He stayed and had fun and came back to call his parents. However, Bai Ziqian looked disappointed when he learned that his parents were not around.

Shui Qing: .....I feel like Bai Ziqian is like a left-behind child.

His parents promised well and then sneaked away behind his back.

But it’s something that can’t be helped, no one wants to do it.

In the following days, the whole village was busy harvesting potatoes.

For ten consecutive days, without rest, the Shui Qing family finally put all the potatoes into the warehouse.

The weather was sunny, the scorching sun of midsummer was approaching, and there was no sign of rain at all.

"A bunch of fools, they can no longer believe what the old village chief said. Look, how is this day different from previous summers?

There will be heavy rain and flooding somewhere. "Fan Damu walked to Fan Qian's house with his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

Now in the village, he, Fan Qian, and Zhang Tuzi are the only three families who are not growing potatoes, nor are they doing work-for-planting.

It's not that they don't want to, but Fan Jin and Shui Qing are extremely determined not to deal with them!

By the way, there is also Wang Mazi.

But since the last time he made trouble, Wang Mazi's status in the family has plummeted, especially the sons who were once suppressed by him, and they don't act in accordance with his requirements at all.

After the first month of the year, the families even split up!

Afterwards, several of Wang Mazi's sons and daughters-in-law, with the persuasion of the old village chief, said that they did not dare to think about exchanging mushrooms for rice, but could they be counted on to exchange work for potatoes?

Fan Jin and his wife actually agreed!

His family and Fan Qian's family seemed to be the worst off in the village right now - Zhang Baldy had always been the worst off in the village and was not included in the list at all.

Not to mention that Fan Jinshuiqing did not agree with Zhang Baldy's exchange, even if he agreed to exchange work for potatoes, Zhang Baldy would not be able to bear the burden!

That's just a piece of mud that's too lazy to make progress and is dirty even if you step on it.

Fan Qian was smoking a dry cigarette with a gloating smile on his face: "I have worked hard for more than three months, so what if I have to wait for more than ten days?

I have heard that the potatoes are not fully grown yet, and the harvest will be even better if we wait! "

After I finished speaking, I choked for a while and kept coughing and wheezing.

Fan Damu stepped forward and asked with concern: "Are you still in the same state as last time? Didn't you say that the Ding family gave you a lot of herbal medicine? It didn't work."

Speaking of herbal medicine, Fan Qian got angry: "The person who ate poisonous mushrooms before was very good, exactly the same as before. I thought the Ding family was powerful, and herbal medicine was also useful! I didn't expect it to be of any use.

However, we didn’t send a penny to the Ding family, so drinking for free is not a loss. "

Although Fan Damu felt that Fan Qian's approach was a bit unethical, he was sensible and didn't say much.

This is one of his own, there is no reason to help outsiders.

He turned around and said, "By the way, we neither planted potatoes nor changed potato seeds. After all, your house is a brick house, and mine is a thatched house. What if a heavy rain really comes?"

Families in the village used to trade mushrooms for rice, and before the busy farming season, all thatched houses were replaced by adobe houses.

Especially the roof, it’s all gray tiles!

Looking around, he and Zhang Tuzi are the only two families in Shanshui Village who still have thatched houses.

Fan Qian glanced at his cousin and said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? What the old village chief said is not necessarily right."

Fan Damu chuckled and said, "If you're not afraid of ten thousand, then you're afraid of the worst."

"Then you come and live at my house. We are all Fan family members. I am not Fan Jin's white-eyed wolf who doesn't care about brotherhood!"
