My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 125 Enclosure
Now that he decided to develop on the mountain, Ning Changrong went to call everyone together the next day to inform the news. As he expected, no one objected, and everyone was very supportive.

The news that a few people brought back after going down the mountain yesterday has spread here. If Ning Changrong had not greeted them in advance, and they would have believed in this family, they might have believed that one of the corpses at the foot of the mountain was one of them. one person.

"Evergreen, you can do it with confidence, we all support you." Village Chief Ning said in unison.

"That's right, if it weren't for you, how could we still survive to this day? That shitty government doesn't care about anything, we might as well rely on ourselves."

Ning Daniu's voice has won the support of most young people.

Village head Ning saw that some old people still had some concerns, and said: "There are wars everywhere, and it would be nice if we could have a life. Life is the same anywhere, but it's safer on this mountain. At least no one reminds us." We pay taxes, and no one forces us to do corvée, so we don’t have to worry about thieves rushing to our house, at most, it’s just a little harder now, with so many of us, can’t we build another village if we work hard?”

"I know that some of you may still want to go back to continue farming after those thieves are driven away by the court. Have you ever thought that after those thieves are driven away, there will be no other thieves? The world is in chaos now Oh, the thieves can’t be killed. Even if the imperial court will take care of us, when they come, the grass on our graves will be three feet high! And what are the officers and soldiers who helped us drive away the refugees last time? , have you forgotten? Will those people contribute in vain? "

"Changrong, no matter what other people think, our family will support you. From now on, you have the final say here! Anyway, Xiayuan Village is gone, and my name as village chief is useless. From now on, you will be our leader .”

Ning Changrong was a little moved. This old man usually likes to leave the job to him, but he can still handle the critical moment clearly and is reliable.

With Village Chief Ning at the beginning, the other somewhat conservative old people have all figured it out, yes, after the thieves they still thought about left, they would continue to return to Xiayuan Village to farm, but who knows if there will be another Batch thieves over?Will they still have such good luck by then?
After thinking clearly, everyone responded to Ning Changrong one after another.

"Evergreen, I will do as you say, and we will live here from now on. You are capable, and everyone is willing to listen to you."

Lai's voice was the loudest, "From now on, our family will listen to Evergreen! You say that chasing chickens will never chase dogs! You can order my sons as you like!"

Not to be outdone, Mrs. Ding said, "My two sons, Chang Rong, don't be too polite, they have a lot of strength!"

Ning Changrong's family was moved as they looked at the faces full of trust in them.

At this moment, Ning Changrong felt that the pressure on his body was even heavier. Since everyone was willing to believe in him and follow him, he would never let these people down.

Once the position of the leader is established, the next step is to prepare to renovate the place where they live.

Previously, they were not sure whether they wanted to live here for a long time. The houses they built were all temporary housing. If it rained, they might have to hide in the two cement houses of Ning Changrong's family or in the mountain.

Now that you have decided to live for a long time, of course you have to arrange it properly.

Ning Changrong asked Ning Daniu to take people to the place where they had found the taro before, and then searched for any taro, and if there was no taro, he would dig up the roots, and he planned to transplant the taro in the mountainside.

He is in charge of leading people to plan the site. If you want to live there for a long time, you can't build it like they are now.

Wang Xiujuan was in charge of bringing the packet of seeds Ning Changrong bought in Xishi earlier.

Ning Husheng was in charge of leading people to dig limestone, and Ning Qingxi prepared to use it as raw material for cement.

Ning Changrong planned to build all the houses behind with cement, so that it would not only be windproof, rainproof and frostproof, but most importantly, he would not have to worry about wild animals.

Ning Husheng led people to carry limestone on the mountain several times. Ning Qingxi burned it and mixed the limestone with sand to build a furnace.

"Third Uncle, is the stove ready?" Ning Qingxi sat in front of a small temporary table and didn't know what to draw on it.

"It's done, Xixi, go and see if it looks the way you want?" Ning Lao San was covered in mud.

The stove he brought with others has been dried today, and the inside has been completely burned to the ground.After checking, there was nothing wrong with him, so he came over to call Ning Qingxi.

Ning Qingxi followed Ning Laosan to the stove that he specially asked them to build, bent down and walked in, and reached out to touch the wall of the stove.

I walked out satisfied.

Before, they burned the limestone directly outside, which was too inefficient, so she simply built a furnace while burning the limestone, and then put the limestone directly into the furnace for calcination, the speed would be much faster.

"It's alright, Uncle San. From now on, you can just put the stones you carry back into this furnace and burn them in the same way as they were before they were fired. Then you can shovel them out and pile them aside for direct use."

Ning Qingxi left after finishing speaking, and went back to the room to continue writing and drawing.

Ning Da, who was in charge of carrying the limestone with Ning Laosan, said with emotion, "Before I said how those stone houses were built without a single gap, I thought they were built in this mountain. I didn't expect that it was actually built by Xixi This thing was built."

Ning Xiaoniu rubbed his head, "We live on the mountain, but we can still live in such a nice stone house, which is much better than the house at the bottom of the mountain."

"Isn't it? Don't look at this thing like a lump of mud at the beginning. After he works for two or three days, it's so hard that you can't knock it down with a hammer." Mrs. Han's son quietly used the big rock After smashing it, it hurt his hands in the end, and the stove didn't drop any mud.

Ning Laosan knew how this thing was made when he went up the mountain with his elder brother and second brother.

At this time, they were not as shocked as they were, interrupting the conversation of several people, "Okay, hurry up and carry the stone with me, we still have so many houses waiting to start. We don't know how long we will carry the stone Do you still have time to chat?"

The manpower is really limited. Most people follow Ning Changrong to plan the land, fill in the land that needs to be filled, and also be responsible for enclosing a safe range of activities. There are too many places that need manpower.

As a result, only women and mother-in-law were left to farm on Wang Xiujuan's side.

Everyone in the camp started to move, no one was idle, even the half-grown children were responsible for picking up stones by the stream.

In the circled safe area, pick up some fallen firewood.

After all, there are many places where firewood is used to calcine stones.

Fortunately, this place is surrounded by mountains, even if the smoke from their calcined stones comes out, it will dissipate after reaching a height of several hundred meters.
