The Big Farmer of Time Traveling

Chapter 113

After Lizheng came over to talk about the rice, Lin Xiazhi gave Lizheng another opinion, can the roads in the village be repaired?

Nowadays, the life of the people in the village is getting better and better. Many people have bought donkeys or oxen. Even if they don’t have donkey carts or ox carts, they have asked Carpenter Tang to make a wheelbarrow. However, the roads in the village are still dirt roads, only paved. If you touch stones, it will be full of mud when it rains or snows. Not to mention shoes are easy to get dirty, and the car is not easy to push.

Lin Xiazhi's proposal moved Lizheng's heart. It is true that the roads in the village should be repaired. The current roads were built more than ten years ago, and the stones are almost gone.

Seeing that Li Zheng was a little moved, Lin Xiazhi continued to express his thoughts: "Master, if you are worried about not having enough money, I have a solution."

"It's the same as Xiudoufang back then. Doufang can get dividends. For road construction, a road construction stone tablet can be erected at the head of the village. It records the family and name of the person who contributed money or effort, as well as the amount of investment and the number of working days. .”

"In this way, not only can the achievements of road construction be recorded, but also everyone's enthusiasm can be aroused. Do you like it?"

Li was looking at Lin Xiazhi who kept coming up with ideas, his mind was spinning fast, thinking about the possibility of road construction, and at the same time thinking about the Lin family.It seemed that every time Lin Xiazhi actively came to offer ideas, the Lin family was the center of public opinion in the village. He couldn't help but wonder if Lin Xiazhi spoke out these ideas in order to prevent the Lin family from being discussed by everyone?

Li Zheng wronged Lin Xiazhi. Although he didn't want the Lin family to show off too much in the village, he didn't want to give advice to the village just for this matter.

Lin Xiazhi had thought about building the road a long time ago. First, he built a bean shop, then built a private school, and now he builds the road, and builds the village better step by step. The villagers will not be jealous of the Lin family's good life, less Those who chew their tongues can feel comfortable living by themselves.

Lin Xiazhi had no idea that Lizheng, who was upright on the surface, would have such thoughts in his heart. He said all the things he had thought about for a long time.

If there is any road in the village, it must only be built on the main road, and the small roads that extend to the door of each house can only be built according to whether the family is willing to build them.

If people who have paid for or worked hard to repair the main road want to repair the road in front of their own house, they will prepare the materials themselves. When the big guy repairs all the way there, he will pave the small road along the way. Those who did not pay Those who don’t work hard don’t have this kind of treatment. Not only do they have to pay for the materials themselves, but they also have to pay the road builders.

Lin Xiazhi murmured in his heart, as the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Building roads will attract more businessmen to Linjiacun, and the money will follow.

Balabala said a lot, Lin Xiazhi said everything he wanted, and let Lizheng discuss the rest with the clan elders. He retreated behind the scenes, hiding his achievements and fame.

Soon, there was another major event in Linjia Village that caused the villagers to spread the word. This matter was second only to the construction of private schools, which was proposed by Lin Xiazhi to Lizheng - road construction.

Doufang gave more money to the village every month, and after repairing the private school, there was still some left over. After discussing with the clan elders, Lizheng decided to use it to build roads.

At the beginning, everyone felt that it was too much for Doufang to give half of the bonus to the village. Some people couldn't help but wonder if Li Zheng and the clan elders had selfish intentions, but now it seems that all the money has indeed been used in the village. A sum of expenses, Lizheng made them public, and convinced the villagers.

It's just that the construction of private schools is fully funded by the village. It's different for road construction. Everyone needs to contribute some money to build roads.

Naturally, some people would feel unhappy when they heard that they wanted to raise money, but when Lizheng said that the money and effort could leave their names on the road construction stone tablet, the number of people who were not happy decreased by more than half, and only a few households remained famous. The iron cock threatened to tell nothing.

Such people were naturally expected by Lizheng. He didn't bother to pay attention to those spoilers, and directly stated the road construction strategy he had discussed with the clan elders.

Three days later, it was still the same as that in Doufang. Those who are willing to contribute money will take the money to the ancestral hall, and those who are willing to contribute will register at the ancestral hall.

Say what you need to say twice, make sure everyone understands it, and then end the meeting. I'm very busy now, and I don't want to talk nonsense with them.

Because road construction is not like Doufang where dividends can be paid, everyone is not as straightforward as before. It is basically a few taels or a few hundred cash, and each family sends one or two people to work to show that they have devoted themselves to road construction.

After knowing that the road can be repaired to their own homes, some people quickly ordered the materials and waited to start the road repair.

The conditions of the villagers’ homes have improved, and everyone loves to be clean. In the past, they had no choice but to step on the dirt road. Lay the stone slabs, so that the uppers of the shoes will not be dirty when it rains or snows, and the house will be clean, that would be great.

Although there were many people in the Lin family, none of them had the time and energy to help build the road, so they directly paid 30 taels of silver.

After some people learned that the Lin family had paid 30 taels of silver, they said in the village that the Lin family was so rich now, why didn't they pay all the money needed for road construction.

People who can say such things naturally have a bad relationship with the Lin family, and some husbands will go back on the spot.

"I think your family's conditions are also good, why don't you give us some money to share?"

"The Lin family paid 30 taels of silver, how much did your family pay? Oh, I remembered, it seems to be only five hundred taels of silver."

"Only [-] Wen? Are there any men who signed up to build roads?"

"I heard no."

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is too outrageous."

……

What you said and what you said made that husband blush, and he didn't have the nerve to stay any longer, so he could only leave with a handkerchief and stomp his feet in resentment.

This incident naturally spread to Lin Xiazhi's ears. He didn't do business with that family at the beginning, so he didn't care if he was said such bitter words. He is not gold and silver, and he can attract everyone's love.

The construction of roads in Linjiacun started lively.Most of the official roads from Linjiacun to Jiangning County are official roads. The official roads are repaired with money from the government, and it has nothing to do with the village. Roads in the village only need to be repaired at the entrance of the official road to Linjia Village, and then repaired all the way to the end of the village.

Because of the hot weather, many men building roads were shirtless, which directly caused the brothers and young husbands in the village to hide at home and resolutely not go out if there was nothing important to do.

Lizheng from another village heard that Linjiacun was doing road construction again, and they all ran over to find Lizheng in Linjiacun to catch up on the old days. Everyone was close to each other and understood each other's situation. Why did Linjiacun suddenly leave this year? After joining the team of the big guys, he quietly developed himself!

For this reason, Lizheng can only say that all of this originated from the Lin family. The Lin family voluntarily took out the recipe for making yuba. If the village has money, it will naturally be able to build private schools, hire teachers, and build roads.

Since the origin is that the people of Linjiacun are generous and willing to use the prescription to benefit the people in the village, other Lizhengs have no choice but to envy the good luck of Linjiacun.

However, their visit is not fruitless. The method of raising funds in the Lin Family Village can be used as a reference. The surrounding villages are also considered to be relatively wealthy. It should be possible for everyone to raise funds to build roads. Don't be left behind by the Lin Family Village.

Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief after seeing off several old buddies, and at the same time went back to tell the people in Haodoufang to keep the formula of yuba a secret.

It's not that Li is doubting the character of the old fellows, the main reason is that the recipe of yuba is too important and must not be leaked.

The Lin family was at the head of the village, and soon the road going out of the Lin family was repaired. Lin Chengzu felt that he could drive the donkey cart or the ox cart to deliver goods much faster every day. The road was built well, but he didn't know that it was actually his brother's first idea to build the road.

Just when the villagers were devoting themselves to building the road, one of the two seeds sent by Cheng Wenliu had borne fruit, and it turned out to be the chili pepper that Lin Xiazhi had been thinking about all along!Still thin, long and spicy!

At this time, use the golden finger to look at the pepper, and the description inside becomes: "Type: Pepper, Status: Resulting, Grade: Medium Spicy, Suggestion: Top dressing, keep sufficient light."

Xin Fu came so suddenly, Lin Xiazhi spent the whole day to calm down, and then looked forward to another kind of seed that could grow the crop he wanted to find.

The peppers grow very quickly after bearing fruit. Lin Xiazhi went to observe the growth of his precious peppers every day. He almost forgot that the potatoes were ripe. It was Lin Huzi who reminded him.

It was Lin Huzi's first time planting potatoes, and he didn't know when the potatoes would mature. He only followed Lin Xiazhi's instructions and watered the soil every four days or so. There was no fruit, Lin Huzi became anxious.

The temperature has risen recently, which is not good for the growth of potatoes. Lin Xiazhi is not sure whether the potatoes are growing well, so he can only ask Lin Huzi to dig out the potatoes to have a look.

I don't know if it's because of the different varieties of potatoes or other reasons. Although the current temperature is a little high for potatoes, the quality of the potatoes grown is not bad. The smallest ones are as big as Lin Xiazhi's fist, and the larger ones can weigh more than a catty.

After Lin Huzi dug up the potatoes, he probably guessed that potatoes are the same as sweet potatoes, and the fruits are all in the ground.Yuxi team organizes, please pay attention.

Lin Xiazhi didn't bother to explain to him and couldn't explain clearly that potatoes and sweet potatoes belong to tuber crops, so let him continue to think that the fruits are on the ground.

A total of more than 400 catties of potatoes were harvested from the two mu of land. Lin Huzi was frightened and also very happy. The yield per mu was more than 400 catties, which was even higher than that of sweet potatoes, but he didn’t know the taste. How about it.

On the day when the potatoes were harvested, Lin Xiazhi asked Qian to make potatoes into dishes, a simple shredded potato with vinegar, a dish of roasted pork ribs with potatoes, a crispy potato and mashed potatoes, which were buried after the fire on the stove went out. A few potatoes went in.
