The Fangyuan Tiandi of the Reborn Farmer

Chu's father and Chu's mother went to the team and told the village director that they came to collect the arrears of wages today. After calculation, they already owed more than 1800 yuan. I hope he can cash it quickly.

The village director made a bitter face on the spot, saying that he didn't want money, but he could give them the land. There are several pieces of unowned land in the village, so you can choose whatever you want.

Chu's father and Chu's mother showed embarrassing expressions at the time, saying that they couldn't plant it if they wanted it.The first mother is a woman, and she is not afraid of people's jokes. She just complains there when she sits down.The village director became anxious when he saw that his magic weapon against Chu's father was first used by Chu's mother on himself this time, and offered to give it to them cheaply, so that they could grow it for a few years.

The village director is also really anxious.If Chu's father and the others don't want the land, it's not an option to come to ask for wages every day.There is no money allocated in the town, let alone in the village.It is difficult to be a poor family, and it is really difficult for him to be the village director.Seeing that even the pungent white begonias came this time, I was afraid that the village women in the mountains would hang themselves if they cried and made troubles, so they gritted their teeth and called out a discounted price of 70 yuan for ten acres of land. What about the normal price of 10 acres of land at this time? It can also be sold for 100 yuan.

The first-time mother said that she couldn't grow it for nothing, and besides, the two children will start school soon, so what they need is money, and the land can't cover the tuition fees.

At this time, Chu's father finally spoke out, saying that he had been a teacher in the village for such a long time, and he didn't want to make things difficult for everyone because of the salary.He has seriously considered the proposal of the village director, but in recent years, the sand has been a bit blinding. If he continues to grow beans on a lump of land, the land will be deserted faster. Shouldn't the sand directly collapse the house? Don't do it .

The village director is not stupid, as soon as he heard this, he knew that there was still a door to this matter.At the moment, we had some discussions about what to grow in Tuozi land without desertification and can grow money. Finally, considering what Chu’s father said that land desertification is indeed a big problem, he offered to propose that if Chu’s father can grow ephedra that blocks sand, it can be used to control sand. In the name of making a project, the land can be cheaper.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Chu's father acted like he was persuaded by the village director, and then did the ideological work of Chu's mother in front of the village director, and said that he did not want the empty land in the village. Just need the lumpy land in the west of the village that no one cares about, so as not to make it difficult for the village director in the future.

Seeing that Dad was like this at first, the village director finally regained some self-esteem as a sesame official, and sold it at a price of 10 yuan for 30 mu of land.

After sending the two out, the village director let out a sigh of relief. The land in the west of the village requested by Chu Aijun was not of good soil quality, and it happened to be on the northwest wind of Stone Village.Selling ephedra to the first love army is an income for the brigade, and it is beneficial for the villagers to prevent sand, which is also a win-win thing.Otherwise, in the future, whoever is not good-looking will plant without saying hello, and you can't go up and turn over the seedlings. At that time, it will be a few dollars or a few dollars.And if you really want to plant bean plants, you are really a little expert in desertification.

Because it was guaranteed that the sand-proof ephedra would be planted, and ephedra is a slow-growing crop, the village director also gave a concession on the payment, which could be paid in three years.Chu's father and the others deducted the salary arrears from the village, and paid 3200 yuan in cash in one installment.

"Mom is still the most powerful!" Chu Wu rushed into Liuxu.

The first mother is also very proud of this incident. "How about it, your mother can do it! Your father is so rigid. When I went there, I asked him to accompany me to perform this show. If it wasn't for your father's pull, I would still like to negotiate a price! "

"Xiao Wu, do you think that growing ephedra can really make money? You won't lose money! It's written in the contract that you can only grow things for sand control!" As he spoke, he became worried again.It was so sunny and cloudy that the weather changed in an instant, which made both Chu Wu and Chu's father feel ashamed.

Chu Wu knew that the sandstorms would be even more severe in the next few years, forcing the country to return farmland to forests and provide subsidies for returning farmland to forests. In order to encourage villagers to control sandstorms, the town also offered that as long as they plant sand control crops, the land will not charge money, and the seeds will be provided and seedling policies.But there is no human race in that way, after all, the effect is slow and labor-intensive.

Chu Wu was able to persuade his parents to grow ephedra so resolutely because he knew that there would be continuous drought in the next few years, and the water in the small lakes around Shitou Village would dry up one after another.Although it will not crack the soil and waste sand, growing ephedra has a better prospect than growing bean crops.The land his family bought was not far from the reservoir, so he had to plant ephedra before the water in the reservoir dried up.

In two days it will be March 3st, the day the school starts.Today, no one in the family went out, and prepared things for Chuwu and Chuwen to go to school at home.Especially on Chuwu's side, Chu's mother had to follow her to set up her small stall, so there were even more things to bring.

The whole family had been busy all morning, and they were about to rest for lunch when they heard a cry from the courtyard gate: "Is there anyone in the house? Is there a dog? Look at the dog?"

Chuwen's little head popped out of the kitchen immediately, and asked his brother to watch the dog. General Hei's barking was quite annoying, and she was still waiting for Chu's mother's fried fish to come out of the pan by the stove. After being my brother's glue for a whole morning, I was very hungry.

General Hei also heard the voice, and barked wildly in response to the occasion.When Chu Wu went out, he saw it was confronting two teenagers.

While calling the black general's name, he walked over and hugged its neck.The two teenagers took the opportunity and quickly ran into the back room.

General Hei is a black dog with four eyes (there are two conspicuous white spots on the top of the two eyes, the countrymen say it is a four-eyed dog). When he came out, he also became quiet obediently.Chu Wu patted General Hei's head in satisfaction, and then followed into the house.

Chu's father planned to take the examination for a veterinary license this spring, and when he finished his work, someone came to review his books, and he didn't neglect, calling the two teenagers to do it on the kang.

Of these two people, one is strong and solid with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and the other is thin and bony with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek. The combination of one tall and one short, one fat and one thin is quite beautiful.Both were wearing thick military overcoats, fur hats, and thick sheepskin boots made by the locals themselves, with a layer of ice on them.

"Uncle, I'm Li Changfu, the son of Li Manquan in the reservoir. I came here with my father last time. Do you remember?" The burly boy spoke first.

People here are very straightforward in naming mountains, rivers and land. The name Fuyuan Town means fertile wilderness. Connecting a piece of plain, there are four Fuyuan Villages in the north, south, east, west, and Fuyuan Town in the middle. Strangers have heard All feel flustered.The reservoir in Li Changfu's mouth refers to the reservoir village, and the reservoir not far from Chuwu's house is under its jurisdiction, and the name of the village is directly called the reservoir village.

"Remember, what has your dad been up to lately? You guys came from the lake, right? Seeing that your boots are freezing, take off and get on the kang to warm up!"

"My dad is playing cards at home. Uncle, we won't sit down. Isn't this the water coming from the reservoir? We want to see if there are any fish in it, and I want to borrow your ice pendant. Listen to my dad, your family's Bingchuanzi is the best used in several villages near and far.”

Chu’s father has a wide range of hobbies, and cutting ice hooks in winter is also one of his hobbies. Ice hooks and flat fishhooks (a tool for fishing in northern winter, umbrella handle type, 4-5 pieces fixed on long bamboo boards) Flat hooks, fresh branches bent to make handles) are all available. I am an expert at making flat fishhooks, and I don’t want others to praise his set of fishing tools. Make sure you feel good. not far away.

Sure enough, the corners of Chu's father couldn't help but curl up, and immediately went to the warehouse to look for Bing Chuanzi.

Chu Wu felt something was wrong.It's normal for neighbors to borrow something from each other, and it's not the first time someone has come to borrow ice pans, but it sounds like an excuse to go fishing just after the New Year. Didn't many villagers go there before, can you hook a ghost now?

I heard that this year, carp lake has fish for a while, and some people have tried to hook it in the reservoir, but it was finally confirmed that the hook could not be caught.At that time, Chu's father wanted to go by himself, but in recent years he had some rheumatic legs, so Chu's mother stopped him.

At the beginning of the Chinese New Year, the fish on Wu's family's dinner table were given by people who borrowed Chu's father's fishing tools.So even if Li Changfu wants to hook fish, he should not go to the reservoir where the older generation said there is no fish.

What's more, the expressions of these two people are not as calm as they appear on the surface, especially the little thin man, with his head down, his eyes rolling around, and his hands tightly twisted. It was found to be caused by tension.

Chu's father would never think badly of the children of acquaintances, but Chu Wu would not.

"What's your name?" Chu Wu asked.

Li Changfu slapped the thin man next to him with his arm, and almost stunned the thin man who was in a daze. He raised his head and glared at Li Changfu.

"People ask your name?"

"Oh, oh, my name is Tong Hailin" as he spoke, the thin man didn't dare to look at Chu Wu.

Obviously there is a problem!Chu Wu thought carefully about what happened this spring, and secretly thought it was not good.He remembered that there was a murder case this spring. The victim was said to be a 14-year-old boy, whose head was knocked out and sank in the lake. His body was not found floating on the water until summer. It was a sensation at the time.

But he remembered that the place where the body sank was neither the reservoir nor the carp lake, but the green lake to the west of the carp lake.

According to the urine nature of the local people's names, the five small lakes around the stone village got their names like this.To the west of the village is a reservoir built by the state to store water, so it is directly called a reservoir.It is in the same line as the reservoir, and the one in the east of the village connected with the water channel is called East Lake.There is a lake directly behind the village. It is said that there used to be a mausoleum, and when it became a lake, it was called the underground palace.Carp Lake is one of the five small lakes that produces carp. In the northeast of Shitou Village, the carp produced are famous and delicious.The Green Lake is the only one among the 5 small lakes around Shitou Village that has a particularly lush water candle. In summer, it is called a lush green, so it is called Green Lake.From Reservoir Village to Liyu Lake, you just pass by Green Lake.

"Use the ice sticks to cut the ice, be careful not to fall into the lake, especially Hailin, you are so thin, you can fall into a slightly bigger hole, and you will die if you fall in." Chu Wu tried again.

"Dead people, dead people, how could they be dead? No way." Tong Hailin's flustered expression became more obvious, and his lips trembled unnaturally.

This time Chu Wu affirmed his guess, and there was indeed a problem between the two.At this time, Chu's father had already brought the Bing Chuanzi over to Li Changfu.The two of them took it and hurried out.

Chu's father sent the two of them out of the house, and looked at their backs eagerly. It was obvious that his little hobby had been aroused, and his heart was itchy.

"Dad, I think Mom will be busy in the kitchen for a while, anyway, the reservoir is not far away, why don't I go and see how they are doing, and if there are fish, I will come back and tell you as soon as possible."

"If Boss Bai finds out, why don't you just yell at me? If you also suffer from rheumatism and cold legs, Boss Bai won't cut me?" Hey!Don't let your wife worry, the key is that it's quite annoying when the old woman talks about it.

Today, Chu Wu made up his mind to take a look. What if the victim still has a chance?He might have saved a life if he had gone.
