Zhou Xiang tried to hold back his laughter and said, "Dad, stew both of them and let's eat together. We need to nourish ourselves to stay healthy. It's good for our brains."
Father Zhou nodded, "Yeah! I killed both of them. Their cuckooing was annoying."
After dinner, Ling Ran was pulled upstairs by Zhou Xiang and brought into the space.
"Hurry up and build the chicken coop and doghouse. The chickens seem to eat grass, so move the chicken coop to the edge of the grassland. The dogs like to run on the grassland, so move the doghouse to the edge of the grassland too. Do you think they should be placed on one side or on both sides?"
"Put them on both sides! The new dog might bully the chickens."
"But the dogs are running around everywhere, and they bully the chickens wherever they go. The key is, if I don't come in, how can you run around?"
Ling Ran looked at the vast grassland. Not to mention the front, the distance to the left and right was more than ten kilometers. Could he handle it by riding a bike?
"Hey! Why can't I teleport?"
Zhou Xiang snorted, "Humph! This is my space, I am the master here."
Ling Ran quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, you are also my master."
"I think we should just leave it aside! Just make the chicken coop bigger enough for them to move around in."
"Okay! Put everything aside, I'm going to make the chicken coop first."
Zhou wanted to be a porter, not only carrying wooden planks, but sometimes also people.
The chicken coop was built and a large area was fenced off, and Zhou Xiang moved the animals again.
The hens were not afraid at all after moving to the new place and were happily pecking at the grass.
The doghouses were built, and Zhou didn't want to move them. She called Dahuang and pointed to a row of doghouses and told them that this was their new home.
Dahuang whimpered, calling more than a dozen dogs over. He whimpered a few more times, and the dozen dogs went to find their own nests. They lay in their own nests for a while, and then ran to the grassland to have fun.
Ling Ran asked Dahuang to call all the dogs back, and then drove away Dahuang, Xiaohuang, Rourou, and Qiuqiu, including the two female dogs, because he wanted to train the puppies.
Da Huang was puzzled and squatted beside him, unwilling to leave. Zhou wanted to call the six people away.
"Your offspring need training. Once they're trained, they'll be sent out to do meaningful things. You have no choice. This is my decision. You can't just let them eat and wait to die, right?"
Dahuang hung his head and after a long time, he finally came to Zhou Xiang, whimpering.
Zhou Xiang stroked its head and said, "We will do our best to train them well. Don't worry! They will all be heroes in the future."
Dahuang licked Zhou Xiang's hand, and Zhou Xiang sighed softly, "Dahuang, your offspring are all good. I will give them more fruits and eggs."
Big Yellow whimpered twice and ran to Ling Ran's side to watch, and the five Little Yellows followed him.
Ling Ran initially trained them with simple commands, and after training only two commands, he planned to disband them.
Zhou wanted to stop them, get some fruit to feed them, and then let them play.
"Ling Ran, I promised Da Huang that I would give them more eggs and fruit. Next time, put the eggs and fruit in a basket and put it aside. Don't let Da Huang worry."
Ling Ran naturally agreed, "I was wrong just now, but have you ever thought about what will happen if they can't eat this fruit after they get out?"
Zhou Xiang was stunned for a moment, then said, "You are the one who caused this. You made dog food yourself and mixed fruit into it."
Ling Ran immediately raised his hand in agreement. "Okay! This is a good idea. It can also keep them in good condition outside. I'll make the dog food. It's just biscuits, right? I have to learn how to make it. I can't let Da Huang worry, right?"
After the two of them left the space, Ling Ran called someone for help and asked them to buy him a hand-cranked noodle machine.
After arranging this matter, Ling Ran took the dried fruits given by Zhou Xiang and went to see Doctor Cao. He came back soon. He still had to wait for someone to come from the capital!
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, people from Beijing arrived. It seemed that they set out immediately after receiving the call yesterday. Even if the train had been speeded up, it would still take 12 hours to get from Beijing to Huai County.
Ling Ran handed the passbook to the visitor and told him to set up the foundation immediately and to conduct a thorough investigation so as not to be deceived or miss anything.
When the visitor saw the amount in the passbook, he immediately put it in the inside pocket of his coat. Fortunately, he felt cold when he went out last night and put on an extra coat, otherwise, he didn't know where to hide it.
After putting the passbook away, the visitor couldn't sit still any longer. "Boss, I'm going back now."
Ling Ran nodded, "Go ahead! Do your best and let others see that even if we retire, our contribution is not bad."
"Yes!" The man saluted and walked out of the Zhou family with a heroic and high-spirited look.
Zhou wanted to blame Ling Ran for not letting him rest and have a meal, but Ling Ran shook his head, "He has so much money, even the most delicious food would be tasteless if he was allowed to eat it. He'd better go back soon and return the money as soon as possible, so that he can feel at ease."
Zhou's father was stewing soup in the kitchen. When he came out, he saw that the visitor had left and asked Ling Ran why he didn't leave any food for him.
Ling Ran, "He has other things to do."
When Zhou's father heard this, he said nothing more. The soup in the kitchen was already simmering on low heat, and he went for a stroll by the river.
Ling Ran also stood up and took Zhou Xiang to see the river project.
The embankment in the northern section of the river has been completely built. The two-layer embankment and the embankment made of stones and cement look really tall and majestic.
Father Zhou looked at the two-layer embankment and asked, "Think about it, why do we have two layers of embankment?"
"The lower level is a walkway. We'll put benches there later. Don't you see a square of dirt every few steps? That's for planting weeping willows."
"Oh! I thought it was a mistake made by the workers! I even asked one of them, and he said he didn't understand, so he left it that way."
The workers had basically never been out and had never seen how tree pits were dug on the roadsides in big cities. Of course, they didn't quite understand it. After this experience, they probably had their eyes opened.
Seeing Zhou Xiang coming, Ma Gua walked over and asked, "How is it? Is it pretty much as you imagined?"
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Yes, that's right. Has the north done it?"
"It's done. We can divert the water there tomorrow."
"Send those who are good at swimming to dig up the lotus roots in the river and plant them in the northern section. Plant only the area about three meters wide in the middle. The edges will sprout on their own later.
Also, if you're submerged in water for more than two hours, you'll be paid an extra three yuan, and four hours an extra five yuan. At most, you'll be replaced after four hours to prevent someone from getting rheumatism, and yet you'll still be paid the same as an ordinary worker."
Ma Gua nodded, "Okay! I'll tell the workers and make sure they keep a careful note of it."
"Remember? Don't they receive it every day?"
"At first, I collected it every day. Later, maybe because my family was no longer in a hurry, I said I would record it and collect it all at the end."
"That's fine, let's collect it together. It'll be more money, and we can save it."
Ma Gua went to arrange the work, and soon the place became lively, with people scrambling to go down to the river to work, and there was extra money to be made.
Ma Gua then asked those who could swim to take turns in the water, each taking a two-hour turn, and everyone would get paid. Those who couldn't swim could only watch enviously.
