Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

"I heard from the villagers who went to the county town and came back that there is good news from the border. Those strange creatures that harm people are no longer arrogant. I just don't know when they will come back. Two years, two whole years. It's time for them to come back." Uncle Wang said with emotion.

"That's great. It's not easy to stabilize the situation." Uncle Wei said seriously.

"Wow, Father, that means my brother will be back soon and become a general." Gu Qingming held the other side of his face that was not red or swollen, and said in surprise.

"Who knows? As long as I can come back safely, that's fine."

Village Chief Gu had no other extravagant hopes. After picking up the things left here, he asked Guozi to take the things home early, then said goodbye to everyone and left.

After coming out of Uncle Wei's clinic, Guozi, Xuanyu, and even a few of Luo Xile's fellow boys looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter. Lai Fu was running in the front, and when he saw them stop, he naturally stopped as well, staring at them with his black eyes, tilting his head left and right, and shouted at them. The edge of his mouth was covered with a circle of green medicine juice, which looked very funny.

After a few people laughed, they turned melancholy. If they went home in their current state, they would definitely be beaten and scolded, but they had to go home. Everyone behaved like a thief, lowered their head, or picked up their bags to cover their faces, and ran home quickly.

Fortunately, most villagers were in the fields at this time and no one noticed.

……

"What were you doing secretly?" Xu Zhi saw two people and a dog pushing the door and entering the yard. They were so sneaky that Lai Fu was nowhere to be seen. He quickly jumped into his den and was not brought out at all. Xu Zhi looked at the two people who were walking with their heads down and covering their faces, and quickly grabbed them and asked.

Guozi and Xuanyu were both surprised when they heard this and stopped in their tracks. There shouldn't be anyone at home at this time.

Xu Zhi stepped forward and quickly grabbed many of them. Over the past two years, after Xu Yuan's unique training, the three siblings not only grew taller, but their martial arts skills also improved a lot.

Many people quickly dodged the hand that Xu Zhi extended and ran into the house.

No matter what, I'll hide for a while.

Seeing this, Guozi ran in the other direction. There was a rack covered with grape vines. The vines on it were already dry. He ran through the middle of the rack, and with a "bang", Guozi took a quick look and closed the door.

"Wait for me, brother!" Now Huoduo was anxious and shouted quickly, running away.

Xu Zhi was puzzled. These two people looked lively and seemed to be fine. What were they hiding from? Why were they resisting so severely?

Thinking of what his sister had told him, Xu Zhi no longer paid attention to the two of them. He shouted towards their room, took what he needed and went out.

……

the other side.

Xu Yuan was holding Dahua's hand and plowing the field diligently. This was a brand new piece of land, far away from the villagers. It was surrounded by a circle of bamboo fences, blending in with the surrounding environment and making it extremely concealed.

"Master, I still have 20,000 points to gain my freedom." Xiaojiu's baby voice was filled with obvious joy and anticipation.

"I know, I know. Once I grow this cotton, I'll have enough points."

Xu Yuan curled the corner of his mouth and said, without stopping his work, he led Dahua to plow the field again.

"Sister, I got it."

Xu Zhi pulled a cart loaded with a large set of sacks and walked towards the edge of the field near Xu Yuan.

"Take your time, there's no rush." ​​Xuyuan reminded.

After Xu Zhi pushed the cart over, Xu Yuan tied the rope that tied Dahua to a nearby tree, walked forward and threw all the sacks on the cart on the ground.

After untying the sack, he revealed that it was filled with fermented rice bran. He slit the sack open, picked it up and poured it into a winnowing basket on the side, then scattered it one by one on the plowed field.

"Sister, why haven't I seen you pee before? What's the use of this?" Xu Zhi asked curiously.

"It's for loosening the soil. It's mainly for trying it out first."

Anyway, there are plenty of these husks, so it's good to recycle them.

It doesn't take much effort to spread these things. Xu Yuan took Xu Zhi and spread them on all the plowed fields, then he made another start.

The basic system of growing crops in the village has been completed, and the village chief Gu has already allocated who is responsible for what to plant.

During this period, no villager complained, which Xuyuan appreciated very much. However, considering the long-term interests, Xuyuan naturally set the purchase prices for all products to be similar. The fluctuations would not be too large, and there would be no restrictions on them from selling them. In short, there would be profits no matter what.

In addition to the planting industry, the breeding industry has also begun to develop. Fish, shrimp, pigs, and even chickens, ducks, and even the rabbits raised by Shuanzi are gradually getting on track. There are meat, vegetables, rice and grains. The entire Hsinchu Village can now eat meat without leaving the county seat.

It can be said that Hsinchu Village can now truly be called a "paradise on earth."

In addition to Fumanlou, the leftover dry food and pickled products were also taken in by a shop called Renjian Grocery in the county town. It was jointly opened by Xu Yuan and Ye Qiuer. Ye Qiuer sold noodles and loquat paste. The shop was not open often, so Xu Yuan handed the responsibility of looking after the shop to Tian Cheng, who had many years of business experience.

In short, the days now have gradually become what I had expected.

……

When I got home, it was already dark.

The smell of food wafted out of the kitchen. Lai Fu at the door ran out of the nest quickly, shouted to Xu Yuan and Xu Zhi, then jumped back into the nest.

Even if Lai Fu moved quickly, Xu Yuan could still see clearly that something was wrong with Lai Fu. She naturally knew what had happened not long ago. The reason she didn't care was of course that it didn't involve any life-threatening danger. What happened this time could be considered a lesson for them.

As for the few innocent villagers affected, all we can say is that they showed up at the wrong time.

"Big sister, second sister! You're back!" Guozi heard the noise at the kitchen door, looked up at the door and stuttered.

"What are you doing? Is it so cold? Why are you covering your faces so tightly? Are you feeling unwell?" Xu Zhi looked at the two brothers who were covering their faces and asked with concern.

"No, no." Xuanyi tightened the mask on his face again and replied.

It seems that my eldest sister and second sister don’t know about it. That’s a close call.

Many people murmured silently in their hearts and breathed a sigh of relief.

It was only half loose and got stuck.

"Ok?"

Manyu felt that the mask on his face had somehow fallen to the ground. When he was looking for it in a hurry, he met Xu Zhi's gaze.

"Uh……"

The room was silent, with only the sizzling sound of food in the pot.
