Seeing Funiu's calmness stabilize, Xu Jianguo felt relieved. He walked into the main room and took out red paper and cardboard from the space, ready to use them to make a hat for the snowman.
The snowman’s hat is very simple. Xu Jianguo simply used cardboard to make a style similar to the birthday hats of later generations, and then pasted red paper on the outside to complete it.
After putting the things away and saying hello to Funiu, he went to the yard and put the hat on the snowman's head.
"It looks much better this way!" Xu Jianguo said.
After stomping the snow off his feet, Xu Jianguo returned to the house. In the afternoon, the brother and sister stayed on the kang and did not go out again.
Du Yu still made dinner, including shredded pork with fish sauce, scrambled eggs with cucumber, steamed buns and rice porridge. It was a very delicious dinner.
The days passed by uneventfully, and Funiu completely got over the sadness of the old Taoist priest's death. Although she would still think of him occasionally, she no longer had such big emotional fluctuations as before.
Soon it was New Year's Eve. Xu Jianguo woke up very early as usual. After getting up and washing up, he pushed open the door and walked out. He picked up the broom and swept the yard. The snow that had fallen before had not melted yet, including the snowman he and Funiu had built.
Xu Jianguo got up early the morning of the previous day. He first pasted the couplets and blessing characters in his own home, then ran to Li Dashan's house to help, and then made an appointment with the old man to pick him up the next afternoon to go to his home to celebrate the New Year.
Xu Jianguo returned to the room, looked at Funiu who was still sleeping on the kang, and walked over to wake her up.
"Haha, I'm so sleepy!" Funiu said while yawning.
"Brother knows. After I put clothes on you, you can continue to sleep. I will call you when we get to the county town, okay?" Xu Jianguo said.
"Well, okay, haha!" Funiu said, nodding her little head.
Dress Funiu, then put her boots, gloves, and hat away.
"Funiu, go to sleep!"
"Yeah!" The little girl agreed and fell into a deep sleep again.
After putting Funiu into the space, Xu Jianguo entered and arranged for the little girl to continue sleeping on the kang in the room, and told Du Yu to keep an eye on her.
Afterwards, Xu Jianguo came to Fu'an County through the Seven Star Teleportation Array, and then found Wen Sitian's home with ease. He had previously made an appointment with Wen Sitian that on New Year's Eve, Xu Jianguo would come to pick her up to go to Sandaliang Village to celebrate the New Year.
He took out the key and opened the gate. As soon as he entered the yard, Xu Jianguo found that white smoke was coming out of the chimney in the house. He knew that it must be Wen Sitian at home. He thought that this girl must have returned from the factory last night.
He quietly walked to the main house, reached out and pulled the door, and found that it was locked from the inside by Wen Sitian.
Xu Jianguo thought about it and decided not to knock on the door to wake her up. He prepared to stay in the space for a while.
He quietly walked out of the yard and closed the door. Then Xu Jianguo slipped into the space. Without looking at Funiu, he went straight to the space farm and began to inspect it.
After Fu Bo sensed Xu Jianguo's breath, he ran over from a distance.
"Master, what can I do for you?" Uncle Fu asked respectfully.
"It's okay, I'm just taking a look around. How's the farm doing now?"
"Master, the farm's planting area has just harvested 15,000 kilograms of rice. However, we don't have bags to hold the grain, so we haven't hulled it. My suggestion is that you build a few grain storage tanks in the space, and then adjust the time flow rate to zero, so that the grain can be preserved for a long time." Fu Bo said.
His work reports were professional. He not only reported on the work progress, but also listed the existing problems and the solutions he thought of. This attitude was also liked by many leaders in later generations, of course, except for those arrogant leaders.
"Well, your suggestion is very good!" Xu Jianguo nodded and said, then his mind moved. On a piece of open space not far from the planting area, three huge earthen pot-shaped buildings rose from the ground. There were two big characters on each pot, namely rice, wheat and corn. Next to them, there was a five-story earthen building.
After doing all this, Xu Jianguo adjusted the time flow here to zero, and then said to Fu Bo: "Fu Bo, this will be used as the new warehouse in the future. I have already divided the small building. You can arrange it. If the grain needs to be canned in the future, just notify me, otherwise you few people can't do it." Xu Jianguo said.
"Okay, Master, then please put the rice you harvested earlier into the grain storage tank!"
"Okay!" Xu Jianguo thought about it, and he put 15,000 kilograms of unhulled rice into the big jar.
"Try not to shell the grain in the future. You can still shell it when you need it."
"Okay, Master!"
"By the way, how is the breeding area?"
"Everything is going well in the breeding area. We now have more than 1,200 cattle and sheep, more than 7,000 chickens, ducks and geese, and more than 800 pigs. The warehouse contains more than 20,000 kilograms of beef and mutton, more than 40,000 kilograms of pork, more than 10,000 kilograms of chicken, duck and goose meat, and more than 60,000 eggs of various kinds. The total weight of the fish raised in the fish ponds is estimated to be more than 200,000 kilograms." Uncle Fu reported the current situation in detail.
Xu Jianguo thought for a moment and said, "Reduce the number of chickens, ducks, and geese. Give some meat and eggs to Gu Mingqi and the others. Today is Spring Festival, so we should improve their food. Also, don't just grow grain. Plant some vegetables and fruits as well. We have apples, oranges, and grapes in the courtyard. See if you can grow some of those."
