The future of Xiaoli Village is not optimistic, and Village Chief Li is very worried!
Aren’t there too many families in the village without labor?
"What happened to them during their migration?" Aunt Li didn't quite understand. "It's impossible that before they moved here..." she lowered her voice. "The laborers in the family died before they moved here, right?"
Village Chief Li sighed, "That's definitely impossible. There are probably so many of them along the way, and the journey is so long. If they want to bring more stuff, they definitely can't take the train, and chartering a car is too expensive. So what should we do?"
Everyone knows about immigration. If you're pressed for time, there's really no way around it. Plus, most people are reluctant to leave behind a lot of big things at home. After all, it's not easy to start everything over again, so it's easy to get flustered.
If you are lucky enough to move closer, then it will be simple. You can just get on the cart and it won’t take long to get there.
Most people would rather take a car, as there are relatively few people who can immigrate to a nearby place. So they rush to carpool, which can save a lot of money. However, the problem is that if you want to save money by carpooling with others, you are destined to have less space for your own belongings.
However, many people would rather not have their belongings because they don’t have much money. If they spend all their time and money on the journey, what will they do when they get there? Therefore, many people have no choice but to give up their old belongings.
If I stayed there, it would either be taken away by someone else or drowned in the water. But these were both helpless choices...
But there is another type that is particularly miserable.
They were moving to a very, very far place, a distance so far that they couldn't hire a car even if they tried their best. After all, it was too far. They did have a subsidy if they wanted to take the train, but the problem was that you couldn't carry so much luggage on the train. Not to mention, even something as simple as moving a table would be extremely difficult, if not impossible.
But what can I do? Even if I take the train, I can't support a family with nothing.
So many immigrants have no choice but to drag a cart with their family as they are pressed for time. As long as they can bring enough things with them, that's enough.
Everyone has the same belief: to arrive safely first and then start a new life. The journey may be a little harder, but they can bring their belongings with them, and then they won't have to rebuild furniture, which is a very troublesome thing. You need to cut the wood, let it dry for a long time, and then the craftsmen need to take time to build it.
If possible, apply tung oil. If not, just use what you have. It is impossible to paint it.
But this road is too long.
The longer the journey, the more tired people will be, because many families don’t even have livestock.
So they mainly relied on manpower to pull the cart along the way.
Tired, hungry, sick... the person is gone.
Village Chief Li puffed on his pipe and shook his head. "I think those people probably died when they got here. Otherwise, their homes wouldn't be so well furnished. Those are all great things. I wouldn't be willing to leave them behind."
Aunt Li sighed, "They're a little too far away. We're pretty close. We're exhausted from the whole journey."
You have to know that their family is different from others. There are many strong young men, each of them has a lot of strength. Even so, the journey was very tiring. By the end, everyone was almost exhausted, not to mention the young or the elderly.
Many of the people who live so close to them have fallen ill and still have no strength in their arms and legs.
"How many households are there?"
Village Chief Li said in a low voice: "How many households? Dozens of households!!"
If it were just a few households, he wouldn't be worried, but the problem was that there were actually too many. He hadn't even finished counting them yet. He'd have to wait until the teams were divided tomorrow to count them, but he estimated there were already quite a few.
Thinking of this, I also felt very strange: "Don't you say this is too weird, this...this death is too neat, right? "
Were they all dragged out of the village and then died?
Aunt Li opened her eyes wide and wanted to say something, but her eyes were a little confused. Village Chief Li and other family members were the same. It seemed that there was a mysterious force that prevented them from exploring.
So the topic got stuck here. After the family finished eating, they had to tidy up and clean up. They were very tired. They were able to cook a meal quickly. It was also fortunate that they did not stop to repair the pots along the way. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if they got rusted. I don’t know how much time it would take to clean them.
…
But dinner time is not the same for everyone. Some people are tired, but some people are just... miserable!
After all, it is true that many people do not know how to use a big pot stove, but even ordinary modern kitchen utensils are not used by many people, especially for young people nowadays. Sometimes they either eat at work or eat takeout. In short, fewer and fewer people cook at home.
So it is almost normal for the cooking level to be substandard, and there are even some kitchen black holes who can't cook anything at all. These people have been very anxious these days. They used to order takeout, but where can they order now?
No, they can still order, but because they don’t have cash, it means they don’t have any extra shopping money, and without shopping money they can’t order delicious food. It can be said to be a very embarrassing cycle.
