Chapter 167: Let's keep up with the progress
When Shen Jun was using the improved moldboard plow skillfully, the heads of several families came over.
Seeing them nodding at him with a wry smile, Shen Jun just thought it was ridiculous. However, he was influenced by his grandfather and was kind in his actions, so he didn't say anything unpleasant. It happened that he was tired, so he gave the plow to Shen Yong who had been waiting on the side.
"Finally it's my turn to plow the fields!" Shen Yong proudly held onto the plow handle.
Shen Jun ignored him and turned to ask the people who came to see him, "What do you want?"
Are you here to borrow tools? That's so rude. Can't you see they are using them?
One of them stepped forward, his face flushed, and said, "That's right, we uh, we also want to join you."
Before Shen Jun could reply, Shen Yong laughed and said, "Did I hear correctly? It was you who didn't want to join us in the land reclamation. You even said you were afraid that our family of women and children would bring trouble to you. You also didn't believe in my sixth sister's ability. Humph, it's too late to regret it now!"
Several people's faces turned ugly after being hurt by Shen Yong's ruthless words, but when they saw that the land on the Shen family's side was almost finished, while their side was still full of stones, the discomfort in their hearts dissipated.
"Second Master Shen, please be magnanimous and don't bother with us. We were instigated by Wang Tao's grandson before. We regretted it, but we didn't have the courage to come to you."
"Yes, Master Shen was kind to my family back then. Strictly speaking, my father was Master Shen's disciple. So please don't mind our ignorance before, okay?"
"My home too"
Several people started talking one after another.
However, they only dared to tell Shen Jun and did not dare to confront Shen Yong.
Shen Jun didn't reply immediately, but walked towards their land.
Several people hurriedly followed, feeling a little nervous.
I don't know how the Shen family had the ability to get such new farm tools. Even as they were talking, Shen Yong had already turned the ground two meters away.
If they also have something like this, even if each family takes turns using it for a day, then why would they worry about land reclamation? That bastard Wang Tao is really causing a lot of trouble!
Shen Jun pointed to their land and said, "If you want to join us, you should at least keep up with our progress."
The implication is that they want to form a partnership with them without even clearing the stones from the ground. They want their help.
In the beginning, these people were unwilling to join the Shen family because they used the excuse of not wanting to be taken advantage of. Now, they are probably doing it the other way around, and they are trying to take advantage of them.
For Shen Jun, it doesn’t really matter whether he joins these families or not. As long as he works diligently, more people can really make the work go much faster.
But if a group of lazy people squeeze in, it will be fatal.
"You mean, as long as we clear the stones on the ground, you will agree?" someone asked quickly.
Shen Jun shook his head. "I don't have the final say on this matter. I need to discuss it with the other families before we can confirm it."
We can't say anything for sure, what if everyone doesn't want to be with this group of people?
They looked at each other for a moment, then nodded in unison, "OK!"
Anyway, the stones in the ground have to be cleaned up sooner or later, so it is better to learn from the Shen family and clean them up earlier and save more trouble.
In fact, these people were all influenced by Wang Tao. Wang Tao's laziness and ignorance, coupled with the fact that they had more male children than men, made these people feel that it was okay to clean up a few days later.
"Aunt, Mom, and Brother! Come and see! I've dug up some new soil!"
Shen Yong's joyful shout attracted everyone over.
