Chapter 292 Building a Wall



There was such a big commotion in Taoyuan Village, and people from nearby villages were not deaf. They came to inquire, but after finding out, they didn't take it seriously.

But when I went back a month later, a high wall and gate had been erected at the intersection. If you knew it, it would look like a village, but if you didn't, you would think it was the gate of a city.

Wang Lizheng from Hongye Village was stopped outside the gate when he tried to enter the village. He had to shout to the people who were still building the wall above before someone opened the door for him.

After coming in, Wang Lizheng looked at the bustling scene in Taoyuan Village. This atmosphere was very different from that of their village.

Although he was shocked, after finding Li Zheng Zhou, Li Zheng Wang still talked about business first, "The well water in the village is too turbid, and many people have stomach problems. I see that your village seems to be fine. Is there any good solution?"

"There is indeed a way," Zhou Li called over Liu Shanpao who was passing by, "Shanpao, tell Li Zheng Wang about the water filtration method that Master Yi taught us, and go to the next village to teach it."

"Is it all in vain?" Liu Shanpao asked.

Zhou Li said straightly, "Why, you still want to charge? Shouldn't Master Yi ask us for money?"

"Mr. Zhou, that's not what I meant..." Liu Shanpao shrank his neck and immediately shut up.

Zhou Lizheng then turned to Wang Lizheng and said, "Originally, I should have told everyone about this idea earlier. There have been a lot of things going on in the village recently, and I forgot about it. I hope you won't blame me."

If there is a way to filter water, then the water problem will be solved. Wang Lizheng laughed and said, "I dare not, I dare not, but Brother Zhou, you are building walls and installing doors here, are you preparing..."

Zhou Lizheng sighed, "It's always right to prepare for the worst..."

Everyone originally thought that Taoyuan Village just wanted to block the intersection, but when Wang Lizheng heard that they wanted to surround the entire village, he was dumbfounded for a moment.

How much money and manpower would this cost? They couldn't even get enough people to dig a ditch in Hongye Village. If they had to mobilize so many people to do so much work like Taoyuan Village, he, as the head of the village, would probably be drowned in spit.

He didn't even dare to think about such a thing.

On the way back from Taoyuan Village, Liu Shanpao was still bragging.

"This person still needs to study. At that time, the water drawn from the well was full of mud. The water was just drawn in the morning, and Master Yi had a solution in the afternoon. When I have children in the future, I will also send them to school. I heard that the schools in the county are not cheap. Unlike in our village, as long as you help work full hours every year, your children can go to school. What do you think? Who can I go to for justice..."

Wang Lizheng, "..."

If he hadn't been counting on this bastard to teach the villagers how to filter water, he would definitely have slapped him twice.

After returning home, Li Zheng Zhou sent letters to the heads of several nearby villages, clearly describing the method of water filtration.

If it was just a water problem, it would be fine, but there are always some people who don’t have any food stored and come to borrow food.

The Liu family is now quarreling over this matter.

"Ming brother, we are a family after all. Do you really want to watch Tieniu's grandma starve to death?" Huang Damei said angrily.

Ji Ming twisted the handkerchief and wiped his face, then asked, "You want me to support a woman who has nothing to do with me?"

"Why is it irrelevant?" Huang Damei said, "You and Tieniu are cousins, so his grandmother is also your grandmother..."

"I'll say it again, I only have one grandma. As for other grandmas, even if they starve to death or get beaten to death in front of me, I won't blink an eye. If necessary, I don't mind sending them on their last journey."

After Ji Ming finished speaking, he threw down his handkerchief and left. Huang Damei was stunned for a moment before chasing him out and yelling, "You have no conscience, you are not a human being!"

All the wages she earned from working as a long-term worker in the Guan family for two months were taken away by her ex-mother-in-law. Now that she has no job, her mother-in-law keeps complaining in front of her.

Ming Ge'er was in the rice business and had no shortage of food. She just wanted him to give her a little bit, but she didn't expect that Ji Ming was such a cold-hearted person.

Huang Damei chased after him cursing and happened to run into Liu Youfu holding Yuan Tieniu.

"There is no good person in your family. You bully a woman like me. You pretend to be so kind on weekdays, but when it comes to helping me, you leave faster than anyone else!"

Liu Youfu covered Yuan Tieniu's ears and said anxiously, "Sister, it's not like that..."

"No! What's no!"

Huang Damei vented all her anger on Liu Youfu.

When Granny Xi heard the noise, she wanted to go and stop the fight, but Ji Ming stopped her, "Grandma, Granny Jin just said she has something urgent to talk to you about. Let's go over and take a look."

Grandma Xi was taken away like this.

Song family.

Song Yuehua received a letter from Yan Fengjian sent from Luozhou, asking her if she wanted to seek refuge in Yunmengzhou. If she was willing, the Yan family would find a way to arrange for someone to escort her there.

Another person who wanted to give her refuge. Song Yuehua sighed softly, took a pen and paper and wrote a reply.

After handing the reply to the waiter outside, the waiter asked, "Miss Song, are you willing to leave?"

"Thank you, but you don't have to worry about it." Song Yuehua said with a smile.

The servant nodded and said, "Although the price of grain is high now, there is no market for it. If the young lady needs it, I can buy it for her."

Song Yuehua currently has enough grain in stock, so there is no need to buy more grain at this price for the time being.

"If you don't buy it now, won't it be too late to buy it later?" Song Yuehua said with a smile.

The servant shook his head, took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Song Yuehua, saying, "At any time, as long as the young lady comes here, she can buy food."

Any time?

Song Yuehua chewed on this sentence carefully. How much food did these people hoard?
