Chapter 91 [The Beast Has Come Down the Mountain]
With money, no worries about food and drink, the mental state of the villagers has also improved greatly. However, after a long period of hardship, these dark-skinned women in the village will not dress up and buy new clothes like those women in the city.
Instead, they choose to use the money earned by their husbands or eldest sons to buy some living facilities. The most obvious change is that in the past, when women fetched water, they would hold a pottery jar on their heads. It was very thin and fragile, but the advantage was that this kind of water jar was relatively cheap.
Now, most women actually hold a pot made of red copper on their heads. Don't underestimate the high price of these copper jars. It can also be regarded as one of the family's assets, hard currency, whether it is passed on to future generations or counted as a dowry for their daughters, it is a very practical container.
The biggest change is the hygiene of the people in the village. To be honest, in the past, these villagers, whether men or women, didn't like to take a bath, making their hair messy and head lice crawling on it.
Now it's much better. They pay attention to hygiene and don't urinate or defecate anywhere or litter. The streets in the center of the village, which used to be full of sewage and garbage, are now clean. Children can run around on the streets without worrying about falling and getting their mouths full of feces. The effect is quite good.
Old Singh was also very satisfied. He greeted the villagers with a smile and looked around. Let's see if there are any hidden sanitary blind spots in front of and behind the villagers' houses? There is a flat land after turning a corner through the street in the center of the village. A dry toilet with ten squat toilets for men and women has been built on the construction site.
There is a pipe under the toilet that leads directly to the underground biogas tank. Whether it is human and animal feces or sewage that is taken over for cleaning when it is convenient, it will flow into the biogas tank along the pipe, and after fermentation, it will form natural fertilizer. Bel Singh ignored Jamal's obstruction. He came to the men's toilet to see the sanitary conditions in person and was quite satisfied.
The toilet is very clean. How many flies do we have? The only strange thing is that there is a red plastic bucket next to each squat toilet. There is an iron cylinder floating on the plastic bucket. It is obvious that clean water is needed for cleaning. This is also a habit that cannot be changed since ancient times. Instead of using toilet paper, clean water is used to clean after defecation.
Not bad, it is quite clean. Behind the toilet is a garbage incineration plant, which is a circular pool built with bricks and cement. There is a roof made of asbestos tiles on it. The addition of a brick wall with holes is conducive to smoke exhaust and can also prevent garbage from burning in the pool on windy days. The burning debris will fly everywhere and cause a forest fire. There are not many ashes in the incineration pool.
Every one or two months, a special person will take a silk bag to transport and seal the garbage, and then transport it to Sinjar Town for disposal. As for where to throw it, it is not Singer's business. Anyway, it is not thrown in his own Lagar Valley. Not bad, not bad, quite good. Since he has issued a very strict order, it has caused the villagers to be very distressed and inconvenient for a while.
But rules are gradually developed. It's okay once you get used to it. Let's see if you are used to it after more than a month. Isn't the village cleaner now than before when sewage was everywhere and the stench was overwhelming? What's the difference between humans and animals? If you defecate and throw garbage everywhere, what's the difference between you and animals?
Not bad, quite good, seeing that the sanitation is implemented so thoroughly. Singh was very happy and wondered in his heart whether the Singh family should organize a party for all villagers on January 26, the National Day, to reward these law-abiding villagers. At least it would be a good choice to let these poor villagers, the elderly and children who don't see much meat in a year, eat a piece of fat and tender mutton.
I walked around the village and felt very satisfied. Then I followed the dirt road below the village and went down to the agricultural areas on both sides of the river. I saw that various crops were planted in the farmland. Rice was planted in the irrigation areas on both sides of the river. The growth was very good. It would bloom and head in another month. If we take good care of it, it would be another bumper harvest.
Because the rice fields are far away from the water source, some dry fields are planted on both sides, and the most is wheat. There is also some corn. Some grains are planted in some open spaces, such as rapeseed, soybeans, and various beans. As for the vegetables eaten by the villagers, they are all grown in their own courtyards. The vegetables produced in the courtyards of hundreds of square meters are enough for the whole family.
The only drawback is that there are more weeds in these farmlands, which is also an inevitable result. Because Master Singh personally ordered that chemical herbicides will not be used. All the male laborers in the family went to work in the cement factory. It was good enough for the women and children at home to plant the land. As for pulling out the weeds in the land, don't even think about it. This is not an ordinary farm work. It is quite tiring and not something a woman can bear.
After wandering around for an afternoon, Belsinger returned to his castle very satisfied and sat on the high-end leather sofa in the living room to enjoy black tea and fruit. It was so comfortable to watch TV with his wife Lina. The couple chatted while watching TV. The content of the chat was to discuss what to eat tonight. After all, there was electricity and a refrigerator to store more food.
After spending more than ten days in the sunshine beach of Malaysia, to be honest, before we had enough delicious seafood, we were called back by a phone call. This made the honeymoon couple quite dissatisfied, but fortunately they brought a lot of good things when they came back, and India is also a big seafood producer.
Even if you live in the mountains, as long as you have money, you can buy whatever you want to eat. The couple discussed and discussed that they planned to have a seafood hot pot tonight. It sounds good, but in fact, it is a seafood hodgepodge with curry, and then you wear gloves or bare hands to take out the shrimps and crabs in it and eat them. The taste is pretty good.
It was already past 9 o'clock in the evening when they finished eating. The couple just wanted to take a shower and prepare to rest, but they didn't expect that the originally peaceful back mountain would sound a series of rapid gongs. Opening the window and listening carefully, you can hear the shepherd who is watching the sheep on the mountain shouting loudly.
"Come on, the wild animals on the mountain are coming down the mountain, come on, the wild animals are coming down the mountain. Women in the village, keep an eye on the children and don't come out, men take weapons and hurry up the mountain."
Good guy, this happens every half a month or a month. The goats I raise are for selling, not for feeding you wild animals on the mountain. Why do you always come down the mountain to harass me? Who can bear to lose hundreds of goats a year? This is all money. Belsinger has never fought in his previous life or this life. He has no experience of facing wild beasts. The only time he faced a wild beast attack, he was drowned. It seems that the rapid sound of the gong can indicate that there are more than one wild beast coming down from the mountain.
This is not a pack of wolves coming down. If a pack of wolves comes, it will be really troublesome. I am the master of Lagar Valley. If I don’t lead the most dangerous time, who will lead? So I ignored Lina’s dissuasion, put on my clothes, opened my door, and shouted downstairs.
No mistakes, one sentence, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, look!
"All men who can move, come out with weapons and follow me up the mountain. The wild beasts on the mountain are coming down. This time I will let them have no chance. If I don’t teach them a lesson, they will think that Lagar Valley is their granary."
