Chapter 149
"My little girl!"

Looking at the 500 mu of wasteland in front of him, more than half of which was sand, Li Laoshuan really didn't know what to say.

"I said son-in-law, what are you going to do with such a large piece of land?"

Right now, land reclamation and farming rely on manpower. To clear such a large piece of land, how many people and how many days will it take.

If it was just him and Wang Zhong, they would have to work until the Year of the Monkey.

If you ask someone to help, it will cost you a lot just to hire someone.

Li Laoshuan didn't dare to think about it.

Wang Zhong said with a smile, "It's not that simple. Buy a tractor and come back, plow deep and shallow, and plant a circle of saplings around it. That's a natural barrier against wind and sand."

With strong confidence and longing for the future in his tone, Li Laoshuan even vaguely felt the picture scroll in Wang Zhong's mouth slowly unfolding in front of him.

"Plant a circle of saplings around it?"

But Li Laoshuan looked at the Gobi Desert in front of him, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

More than 500 mu, which is about the size of more than 50 football fields.

"When will this be planted?"

Li Laoshuan immediately felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. If it was just planting, it would be easy. The key is to raise it after planting, and to water and fertilize it regularly so that the saplings can grow up and not die.

These are just saplings. Saplings are easier to feed than crops. Even if the crops of more than 500 mu are all drought-tolerant corn, they must be watered. Otherwise, the corn saplings may have just grown out of the ground. How long does it take to be sunburned to death.

If it's more than ten or twenty acres, I can grit my teeth and follow my daughter and son-in-law to finish the service, but now it's more than 500 acres!

With an area of ​​more than 500 mu and more than 30 square meters, Li Laoshuan suddenly wanted to cry, feeling powerless for the first time.

But Wang Zhong said calmly: "It's all about human effort!"

Li Laoshuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the words, thinking, is this still what people say?It's good to say that it depends on people's salary, but you have to weigh how much you have, let alone Wang Zhong, even if you add him, Li Laoshuan, and Shuihua, the two unborn babies in Shuihua's belly Little doll, that's not enough!
Of course, Wang Zhong is also a human being, not a god, so how could he not know the difficulties involved.

Just looking at Li Laoshuan's expression, Wang Zhong probably guessed what Li Laoshuan was thinking at the moment.

But what the great man said is good, it is endless joy to fight against the sky, endless joy to fight with the earth, and endless joy to fight with people.

There is no need to fight with people for the time being, but now clearing up wasteland on this Gobi desert, digging canals to divert water, is tantamount to fighting with heaven and earth, and fighting with nature, which is fun and not humane.

What's the point if every world is about lying down and winning, enjoying all the time, feasting and feasting, wine pools and meat forests.

This is the same as playing games. When you are at a high level, go to those low-level dungeons. It is natural to crush all the way, but if you are always crushing and pushing horizontally, there is no challenge at all. You will feel that the fun brought by crushing and horizontal pushing seems to be the same thing, whether it is there or not, it is boring, monotonous and boring, can't find the slightest meaning, and has no attraction at all.

On the contrary, for an extremely difficult dungeon, the process of customs clearance should be tortuous and bizarre, cumbersome and difficult, and you may face various failures at any time, but in such a difficult situation, you rely on your wisdom and courage , Ability Haiyu had such a little bit of luck, he managed to pass the dungeon with great difficulty.

The sense of accomplishment brought by this is by no means comparable to the former.

Wang Zhong has already figured out the joint.

As for suffering and tiredness, the effort and sweat put in, in Wang Zhong's opinion, are all worth it.

But anything that can be done with effort and time is not a problem for Wang Zhong.

The longer he lived and the more he experienced, the more Wang Zhong was able to appreciate the truth that only by giving can he be rewarded.

Although in the real world, Wang Zhong's lifespan is short, but for Wang Zhong, every dungeon world is a wonderful life.

Experience the various states of life, taste all the sufferings in the world, and read all the prosperity, and you will be at ease in the end.

Especially after a series of arduous struggles, gradually seeing the results and getting the harvest, that feeling, that sense of accomplishment, is far more pleasant than the joy of fish and water between men and women.

Li Laoshuan shook his head and said nothing.

Wang Zhong is only his son-in-law, not his son, and he can live such a comfortable life now because of Wang Zhong, the son-in-law. Although Li Laoshuan didn't understand what Wang Zhong decided, but he did He didn't say anything, as long as Wang Zhong knew what was in his mind, he would support it.

"A tractor is not cheap!" Li Laoshuan has never bought a tractor, and no one in Yongquan Village, Jintan Village, or the resettlement village of Diaozhuang Village has bought a tractor, and there is no other reason, simply Because you can't afford it.

Since ancient times, the peasant households have been able to support themselves and their families, have enough food and clothing, and have three meals without worrying about it, which is already blessed by God.

Wealthy, with extra money at home, Li Laoshuan didn't even dare to think about it before.

"It's such a big place, how can it be enough to buy one!"

Wang Zhong said with a smile: "Not only tractors, but also saplings and seeds. After the irrigation canal is dug, trees will be planted all around."

"Furthermore, five hundred acres is just the beginning. If such a large Gobi Desert is dyed green, what a beautiful scene it would be." Looking into the distance, Wang Zhong had a panoramic view of all sides and said with longing.

Li Laoshuan was also a little dazed for a while.

"With such a large piece of land all at once, we won't even be able to water it!" Suddenly regaining consciousness, Li Laoshuan looked at the Gobi Desert in front of him and said worriedly.

"If you can't water it now, it doesn't mean you won't be able to water it in the future!" Wang Zhong probably didn't think about this issue. In the Gobi Desert, the land is vast and the population is scarce. What is lacking is not land, but water.

If there is only land and no water, no matter how many seeds and crops that are resistant to drought and cold are given to you, they will not be able to grow here.

With the guidance and strong support of the government, the Yellow River irrigation project will eventually turn this Gobi Desert into another fortified south of the Yangtze River.

In reality, as a southerner, it was the first time for Wang Zhong to have such an obsessive affection for water.

Seeing Wang Zhong's calm and calm appearance, Li Laoshuan suddenly gained confidence in his heart for some reason.

The procedures for contracting the land have been completed, and the next step is to follow the relevant staff of the Poverty Alleviation Office, the Development Office, and the National Land to determine the boundary.

Splash production was imminent, Wang Zhongneng took the time to come over to have a look, he had already tried his best to get away from his busy schedule, and he could only entrust the old branch secretary, Ma Huashui, and Li Laoshuan to determine the boundary.

The villagers knew that they were helping Wang Zhong, so they all volunteered to help.

Pulling wires to drive pilings and defining the divisional generation, this work is not something that can be done overnight.

Wang Zhong now has more important things to do than this.

With the splash of labor, she went to the town's health center to be hospitalized.

Although it is only a health center, the conditions are not comparable to those hospitals in the county and city, but there is no shortage of necessary things. The old residents of Yuquanying and the migrant households who have immigrated to the village, if they have babies, they are either at home. If you give birth by yourself, ask Mrs. Wen to help deliver the baby, or you can come to the health center in the town, which has at least some basic facilities, as well as professional doctors and nurses.

Just two days after the first lunar month, the spray broke out, and the time was almost the same as Wang Zhong expected.

After four and a half hours, Shuihua successfully gave birth to two sons, a pair of twins, separated by nearly 10 minutes.

Old Li's family has been single-handed down for several generations, and in Li Laoshuan's generation, there is only one woman like Shuihua. I didn't expect Shuihua to be so competitive, and gave birth to two boys all at once, which made Shuihua very happy.

Holding the two dolls in his arms, the smile on Wang Zhong's face almost never broke.

On the third day after giving birth, Wang Zhong took Shuihua and the two newborn babies back to Jintan Village.

The folks who knew the news all came to visit. Those who had eggs brought eggs, and those who had white flour took a few catties of white flour. The old branch secretary was the most caring. He killed the old hen he raised and asked Shuiwang's mother to stew it with goji berries and red dates. Soup, make up for the splash.

Wang Zhong’s house was inside the main room, the door was closed, and the cloth curtain blocked it. The room was full of people. Shuihua was sitting against the wall. Her head was wrapped in a floral cloth and her forehead was wearing a mop. Her complexion had returned to normal. Fu Ma and a few women from the village sat by the kang and told the women of Shuihua what they should pay attention to when they are in confinement.

Wang Zhong and a group of elders were sitting around the other side of the kang table, separated by a curtain, Ma Huashui was holding one in his arms, and the old branch secretary was holding another in his arms, a group of elders who always liked to puff up clouds when they were idle. Gentlemen, no one mentioned smoking at the moment, not even the old branch secretary, the cigarette stick that never leaves his body, did not bring any of them here today.

"This doll is so handsome!" The old branch secretary was afraid that his hands would be too rough and would hurt the doll's face, so he didn't dare to reach out to touch the doll. .

Ma Huashui also said with a smile on his face: "It's rare for twins to grow up so rich, and the two dolls will definitely be healthy in the future!"

In general, twins are definitely not as nutritious as singletons, and their size and weight are definitely not as good.

But the two sons of Wang Zhong, when they were just born, received a bonus of six catties each, and about five catties for the other. It has only been a few days now, and the flesh on their faces has gradually increased, and they have begun to grow gradually.

"Chongbazi, have you figured out the name of your baby?" Uncle Wu Quao, who is usually not in tune, also asked with a smile.

The smile on Wang Zhong's face is naturally the brightest: "Uncle Wu Quan, I must have thought about it a long time ago!"

"The big ones are called Ping An, and the small ones are called Ping Shun. Shuihua and I don't expect them to have any great achievements, as long as they live a safe and smooth life and stay healthy!"

"Wang Ping'an! Wang Pingshun!" the old branch secretary murmured.

"Ping An, Ping Shun!" Li Dayou followed suit: "What a good name! It has a good meaning, and it sounds easy to pronounce! Does your baby have a way of choosing names?"

"Brother Dayou, in the future when your family Shuiwang has a doll, why not let Wang Zhong give him a name!"

Everyone was joking.

"Yes!" Li Dayou's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Chong Wazi, think of a better name for your uncle's grandson!"

"Brother Dayou, your Shuiwang family doesn't even have a date, so you only think about your grandson!"

"I don't have it now, I'll have it soon! I've thought about it in advance!" Li Dayou had always been a talker who refused to admit defeat, so he went back on the spot.

It made everyone laugh. Although the joys and sorrows of people are not connected, in many cases, they can be connected. The joyful atmosphere can easily spread among the crowd.

Newborn dolls, everyone's jokes are catalysts for joy.

"Dayou, when Shuiwang gives birth to a baby, or you can call it rich, rich, rich, big rich, big rich, it's easy to call it!"

Folks of the same generation as Wu Quan and Li Dayou caught Li Dayou and made fun of him.

"Don't make trouble, I'm asking Chongwazi!" Li Dayou shook his hands at the talking five squats in disgust, and said with disgust: "You don't know how to read, why do you want to make trouble, Zhongwazi has the ability , and knowledgeable, the name I chose must be better than yours!"

"That's right! What is it called rich and honor? It's very vulgar!"

"That's it!"

"Look at the others, it's safe and smooth! It sounds good and easy to remember, and the meaning is good!"

The despised Uncle Wu Quan didn't have a brain, he smiled and argued with Li Dayou, making this joke.

Everyone glanced at me and said something, very happy, and finally all eyes gathered on Wang Zhong.

"The name should be chosen by the respected elders. Uncle is still here. How can I, a junior, overstep!" Wang Zhong said, shaking his head.

"The name! It's just a code name, catchy and easy to remember."

"That's right, Dayou, you don't have any opinion on my uncle, do you?" Another one who just watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.

Li Dayou's expression changed on the spot, and he carefully looked at the old party secretary's face, seeing that he was still cheerful, looking at the peace in his arms, his eyes did not turn to him at all, he was relieved, and immediately turned around , fried hair.

······
Although the old Li's family in Yongquan Village is only a villager's family, it was after they moved to Yongquan Village. The Li family, not to mention Xihaigu, is placed in the entire Ningxia region and the whole country. surname.

After talking and joking, the gentlemen left one after another, Shuihua was still in confinement, and had to breastfeed the baby from time to time, a group of big men must be inconvenient.

When Shuihua was in confinement, Wang Zhongke got busy, trying every means to nourish Shuihua's body every day, and drinking chicken soup for Shuihua every day, the pattern changed.

After a month of confinement, she had to feed two dolls. As a result, Shui Hua not only didn't lose weight at all, but became plump again.

Li Laoshuan saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart. He hugged his two grandchildren every day, wishing he could hug him all the time.

On this day, just after breakfast, Wang Zhong asked Li Laoshuan to take care of Shuihua for a while, and he went out for a while.

Seeing that it was almost noon, and Wang Zhong didn't come back, Li Laoshuan simply made lunch for Shuihua. After the father and daughter had eaten, Wang Zhong still didn't come back.

It wasn't until after three o'clock in the afternoon that a sheep blew outside, and Li Laoshuan went out to have a look, only to find Wang Zhong standing under the east shed with two ewes.

"Old man, it's just right, you go to the back of the house and bring some corn stalks!"

"What are you doing with the two sheep?" Although Li Laoshuan was puzzled, he didn't immediately turn around and go to the back of the house, and came out with two bundles of corn stalks.

"Replenish Water Flower and the two dolls!"

"Goat's milk is a good thing. It took me a lot of effort to find these two lactating ewes!" Li Laoshuan nodded and helped Wang Chong build a simple sheep pen with a layer of sheep. Thick corn stalks keep the ewes warm.

Li Laoshuan then brought back a clean iron bucket from the house, and watched Wang Zhong squatting beside the two ewes, skillfully squeezing the goat's milk into the iron bucket.

After milking the milk, he did not forget to ask Li Laoshuan to help feed the sheep.

Wang Zhong went into the kitchen and boiled the goat milk slowly.

Half an hour later, the boiled goat milk was poured into a thermos bottle.

Wang Zhong led the thermos back to the main room, poured half a teacup for Shui Hua, Shui Hua tasted it, and said in surprise, "Is this goat's milk quite fragrant?"

"That's right, don't even look at who did it!" Wang Zhong said with a proud face.

Shui Hua cast a slanted glance at Wang Zhong, although he didn't say anything, but the smile on his face was even wider, Wang Zhong poured half a jar for Li Laoshuan again, and asked Li Laoshuan to taste it.

"It's for Water Flower and Baby, why should I drink it!" Li Laoshuan shook his head again and again.

Wang Zhong said: "As for the two sheep, I can't finish drinking the water splash and peace and smoothness. Besides, this is the first time I make it, and I still can't master it well. You can help me taste the taste and give some advice to see what's wrong with it. Needs to be improved!"

Li Laoshuan thought about it too, picked up the tea mug and took a sip, the taste was not bad, before he knew it, he drank half of the goat's milk, and Li Laoshuan didn't realize it until he finished drinking it.

As for the opinion, it was too hot when it was just poured out.

"That's right, you should pay more attention to the 500-odd acres of land. The land has been contracted, so you can't leave it anywhere. I will be confinement in a few days, and my father will be there to take care of the two. The dolls are no problem at all."

"Okay!" Wang Zhong knew what Shui Hua was thinking, and he didn't want to delay his business because of her, but he didn't know that in Wang Zhong's heart, she was more important than the five hundred acres of land, more important than making money.

"I'll go to the city tomorrow, buy a tractor and come back. After a while, when the weather is warmer, I'll plow the land first."

Although the road to the village is still a dirt road, it has been walked for several years and has become more and more solid. Those small cars are not easy to run, but vehicles like tractors can still run.

Moreover, it is definitely impossible to cultivate more than 500 mu of land by manpower. Only through mechanization can the more than 500 mu of land be rationally utilized.

"It's good to buy another tractor!" Shuihua is also a long-sighted person who knows the difference between mechanization and manpower. At the brick kiln, there are two trucks just for pulling bricks. One is usually driven by Wang Zhong, and the other is The car is driven by Shuiwang.

At the beginning, it was because Wang Zhong bought these two trucks, which can pull two large trucks at a time. The quantity is large and the delivery speed is fast. With the help of Director Zhang and the others, it was possible to quickly open up the market. In just over two years, Here, the annual output is as fast as the old kiln factory in the town.

Wang Zhong has never been a procrastinator, he just did what he said. Early the next morning, he rode a motorcycle to the city, and directly picked up a large agricultural tractor, loaded with several large oil tanks. Diesel, dragging a motorcycle, drove back to Jintan Village.

Those who have not yet entered the village, many villagers saw them from afar, and they all put down their work, and ran out to see in a hurry. Seeing that the driver was Wang Zhong, they didn't think it was so strange, Wang Zhong The news of contracting more than 500 mu of land has long been spread in the village, and the villagers have already guessed that so much land cannot be reorganized without tractors.

However, suddenly seeing such a big tractor, the curiosity of the villagers must be indispensable. Although Wang Zhong didn't want to show off, he couldn't stand the villagers gathering together, so he had no choice but to drive away.

The story of Wang Zhong buying another tractor spread throughout Jintan Village in less than half an hour. Those villagers who hadn't caught up with it just now felt curiously outside Wang Zhong's house, gathered around the tractor, and looked at it carefully. .

The news of Wang Zhong's purchase of a tractor naturally reached the ears of Ma Defu and Director Zhang. Director Zhang even rode his bicycle over to take a look, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

After all, Director Zhang couldn't help but feel uneasy about contracting 500 mu of land to Wang Zhong. Now that he saw the tractor Wang Zhong bought, it showed that Wang Zhong really planned to give the [-] mu of land just right. I have a bottom in my heart.
