Chapter 180 Even if You Don’t Like It, You Have to Endure It

"When the time comes, let the yamen runners measure the entire slope, and we will open up the whole area.

The larger the area of ​​land to be reclaimed, the better, and it will be easier to manage.

The yamen runners only need to measure and file, and they will not interfere in matters that are voluntary. Anyway, when the time comes, taxes will be paid according to the records.

"Mother estimates that this area will be about 20 acres after it is reclaimed. There is no need to worry about composting. We can use local materials, such as fallen leaves on the hillside, and it will not take much effort. "

"We have already reclaimed land at the west end of the village, and many people have noticed it. It is not certain that no one has paid attention to this slope. If we reclaim land first, what if the villagers get jealous and follow us to reclaim land, which will destroy the integrity of this slope and affect the irrigation in the later stage.

The hillside has no owner, whoever reclaims it belongs to him, and they cannot stop others from reclaiming it. However, if a few families reclaim a piece of land, the layout of the whole land will be messed up.

At that time, for a piece of land, no one would be willing to go to the trouble of diverting water for irrigation, and no one would be willing to do a business that loses money?

Moreover, whoever comes to join in the fun is here to take advantage?

Who will work with you to build a bamboo canal for diversion of water?

Bai Yunxi told her son about her worries,

"Also, the people living in the east of the village are all surnames. We don't have much contact with them on weekdays, and we don't know their personalities. It's best not to let them get involved."

Too many people means confusion, which is annoying.

"Mom, I understand. This time we will measure the land first, and then open up the wasteland. With the land deed in hand, no one can interfere."

The two discussed it and went to the mountain to take a look at the plant fertilizer. Half a foot thick fallen leaves are definitely enough for composting.

"Let's go, let's go to your cousin now and ask him to help us measure the fields."

Bai Yunxi carried the basket and watched his son arrange the firewood he picked up neatly and bundle it into bundles.

I have to say that this kid is really hardworking. He can't stay idle for a moment. He can pick up a bundle of firewood even if he turns around.

"It is said that God will not let hardworking people starve to death. It is talking about people like you."

Bai Anyan smiled embarrassedly, "These are all easy things, not troublesome at all..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a teasing voice,

"Hey, isn't this the wife of the Juren? Have you picked up all the firewood in the West Mountain? Ran to our East Mountain to pick up firewood? People can't be so greedy, or they will be struck by lightning."

Wang Da's wife came out of the woods carrying a bundle of firewood, holding a bunch of sweet potatoes in her hand. Seeing Bai Yunxi and her son, she curled her lips and started to talk nonsense.

"Look at what you said. It is said that you can live off the mountain if you live on it. The mountain belongs to everyone. Can you stop people without names from coming?"

"The firewood you picked up was also given by the mountain. I heard that there are mountain gods in the mountains and river gods in the rivers. You have to be careful when speaking and doing things in these places, so as not to offend the gods and punish you."

Bai Yunxi looked at the trembling face of Wang Da's wife and smiled.

People here believe that there are gods in the world and ghosts in the underworld. In this case, if she doesn't take advantage of it, she will be sorry for the five thousand years of history.

Sure enough, when Wang Da's wife heard the two words "mountain god", fear flashed in her eyes, but she was unwilling to give up, so she could only hum in a low voice,

"As if you are the only one who knows."

"Of course, I have read a few books, which is better than you, an illiterate person. No matter how much you dislike me, you can't write your own name."
