Chapter 46

By the time Yao Qing came to look for Aunt Hua again in the afternoon, everyone knew about the opening of the ancestral hall in the village.

According to the village's custom, those who make serious mistakes kneel in the ancestral hall as punishment, ranging from one or two hours to three or four days.

This time the Yao family did not ask to kneel in the ancestral hall, but asked to chisel stone slabs, and the chiseled stone slabs were used to pave the way for the villagers.

It is definitely not enough to chisel once, but if this rule is passed down, there will be a stone road in the village one day.

No one said that the Yao family was wrong, because Lizheng asked them to see what the waterwheel was, and knew that it was a treasure of irrigation, so who would say that the Yao family was wrong?

Two days later, Li Zheng anxiously handed over the scribbled blueprint to him. Yan Yuanhao didn't say much. After asking about a few details, he marked on the blueprint a few places where waterwheels could be placed, and then dug the canal. There are many places that need to be irrigated, and ditches are definitely not enough, and bucket ditches need to be dug.

It is also noted in several places that digging ponds can not only store water, but also facilitate people whose fields are located at high places to pick up water from the ponds nearby for irrigation. Not to mention comprehensive, at least all benefit.

Li Zheng only felt that the drawings he had drawn were too sloppy, but don't make mistakes and delay important events. He stared at every stroke he drew and wondered if this was the case, and then thought it was really great.

Yan Yuanhao finally drew a horizontal line in one place.

Li Zheng took a look and reminded: "There is a river."

"I know."

Li Zheng was confused, "Then this is?"

"Fix the bridge."

Lizheng shut up, the bridge is too expensive, and few people in the village cross the river. They used to go to the city to walk through the water, but now it is so convenient to walk on the single-plank bridge of the Yao family. Not to mention him, even the villagers I never thought about building bridges.

Yan Yuanhao didn't say much, and said, "Leave the space empty first."

Naturally, Li Zheng had no reason not to agree, what Yan Yuanhao said at this moment was similar to what a god said.

It is inevitable that there will be troubles again, but Lizheng has done a good job in publicizing it in the village, and everyone in Tangjia Village will accept this sentiment.

If it is meaningful to dig stone slabs, the whole village will be happy.

Digging canals in the village is not a big project like the government. What they care about is their own several acres of land. It saves a lot of effort to dig the canals and send the water to the water trucks.

Seeing that the irrigation in the village is better than before, Yao Qing said to Yao Lan today: "I won't come tomorrow."

Yao Lan didn't expect her to give up halfway, and was surprised, "Don't you really want to learn? It's only been a few days, why don't you come?"

Yao Qing said that he has learned, "I can thread needles and make patches."

Yao Lan twitched the corner of her mouth, is that all you pursue?I really looked up to you before.

Yao Qing didn't want to, but these days she really understands a truth, she must be talented in everything she does, and she definitely doesn't have it. She can go back and think about it and make a dress. An embroidered handkerchief that costs seven coppers a piece. Don't think about it in this life.

If everyone could learn it, then Mrs. Wei's handkerchief would not sell for seven copper coins.

As for the thirty-copper handkerchief, it was not within her ideal range.

"Actually, isn't the purpose of learning crafts to make money? We can learn something else." Yao Lan comforted. She didn't experience many beatings in society, but in the Internet age, with the development of information, there are many experiences that can be accepted.

What iron pestle is ground into a needle?It's better to sell the iron pestle and buy more embroidery needles.

If you have some money, you just can't make it, and it might be different if you change the road.

"I...I don't know what I can do?" Yao Qing was really confused.

She heard that people in the city are rich, but she doesn't know how to be rich. In the village, she also knows how Mrs. Wei's family makes money, so she wanted it with her head covered.

Thinking back to her grandma's family, the only occupations that the children in the tens of miles away in the mountains could think of were teachers and policemen. Luckily, there was a lady Wei in Tangjia Village, otherwise the girl would not know that there is such a thing as making money.

She gambled to death on Yao Qing's way of learning skills to improve her own value, so she naturally wanted to point out another way.

"How can it be easy to make money?" Yan Yuanhao put down the small scissors in his hand, and stared at the person in front of him.

If he can move the place a little bit, that is to let Yao Lan move him from the house to the small courtyard to take care of the flowers and plants.

Now this small courtyard of less than [-] square meters has been tidied up by him to give it a bit of atmosphere.

"Yes, you don't need to make a lot of money, but you must be able to make money." In order to make money, you have to have the experience of the previous life, who is blessed by the spiritual spring, and the role of luck should not be ignored in order to earn the first pot of gold.

It is said that the first pot of gold seems to be going to heaven in Tangjia Village, but it is just a small cabbage in Nanyang County.

The cousin is a native of Tangcun, and she couldn't think of anything to suggest.

"Is it you, or someone else?"

"My cousin is Yao Qing who is learning embroidery from Aunt Hua recently." Yao Lan felt a little cowardly, after all, she had seen so many pigs running, but she couldn't think of how to teach people how to raise pigs.

It is impossible to raise pigs. A piglet costs nearly [-] Wen. The village is afraid of losing money if the pigs are raised to death, so there are only four families raising pigs.

Yan Yuanhao thought for a while, "If my cousin is not afraid of suffering, you can go to the pier to sell some food."

"Sell food at the pier?!" Yao Lan felt that it seemed feasible, even if Yao Qing's craftsmanship was not good, it would be fine if the third brother made it for her to sell.

Yan Yuanhao nodded, and added: "You don't need to be particular about it, just make some steamed buns and pancakes. There are many people on the pier, so just pick a basket."

The wharf is about [-] or [-] miles away from Tangjia Village, and it is about [-] miles further to the village, which is within the acceptable range according to Yao Qing's physical strength.

After thinking about it carefully, Yao Lan felt that it was feasible, "Okay, I will do as you said."

How does Yan Yuanhao make it sound like his suggestion has become a decision?

"Aren't you going to ask my cousin what she means? She hasn't traveled far, so I'm afraid she won't be able to open her mouth when she meets a stranger." Not everyone can do the easiest thing, otherwise what chance does the dock have?
Yao Lan smiled and shook her head: "Ask my cousin, she will definitely not agree."

Yan Yuanhao: "..."

so what?Knowing that people won't agree, what's the use of asking?

"My cousin has never even been out of the village, so she will definitely feel that she can't do it, but it doesn't matter. If you don't force me, who knows how much potential I can have? Of course I can't ask, I can only force her to do it!"

"Besides, this matter is not difficult, and it can be done if you force it."

Yan Yuanhao's eyes twitched slightly, "My lady is right."

Thinking it would be better to do it, Yao Lan took her cousin directly to the kitchen.

Yao's kitchen is not small, and there are many things placed there, but it is not messy at all.

Yao Sanshun is pounding rice. The countrymen put the rice in a big earthen pot and smash it with a wooden stick to make fried rice cakes. It tastes very good. Yao Sanshun will make it from time to time. "What are you doing here?"
