When we got to the bottom of the mountain, we only sighed for a moment, and then everyone started doing their own business.

Huolin went to a nearby mountain to cut bamboo. Unless the mountain fell, it would be difficult to wash away the bamboo.

So Shen Qing also planned to build the foundation of the new house next to the bamboo forest, far away to prevent bamboo shoots from emerging through the ground.

Shen Hui started looking for a place to set up a stove. She was responsible for the food. This was a task given to her by her sister.

Shen Qing took out his shovel and started looking for a place to build a shack as their temporary accommodation.

Luo Qin was puzzled, "Aren't you going to build a house?"

"Let's not build it yet. It's enough to have a place to stay. Don't be idle and tidy up this place."

This guy is acting like a savage.

Huolin carried the bamboos one trip after another. Fortunately, the temperature was not high these days, otherwise he would have died of heat.

Shen Qing used the small saw he brought to cut the bamboo into equal lengths. Then he dug a hole in the ground, roasted one end of the bamboo and then buried it and filled it in.

The gaps are covered with chopped dead grass and mud. On the roof, the bamboos are split in the middle and laid out alternately to avoid leakage. However, a layer of straw must still be covered. It is a temporary residence anyway, as long as it is not ventilated and does not leak. That’s it.

A total of three rooms were built, each about ten square meters.

The bed board is also made of bamboo and is one foot high from the ground.

The Shen sisters lived in one room, Luo Qin lived in one room, and Huo Lin lived in another room.

The cooking was done outside and a shed was built.

Of course, the donkey also has to have a place to live.

After only one day of work, the house was built, some bamboo was obtained, and a low fence was built around the perimeter.

Luo Qin felt that it was a mistake. This little girl didn't look like she could get ahead, so why didn't she leave yet and continued to stay? Couldn't she leave at any time if she was not satisfied?
But why did Shen Qing ask her to do this and that whenever she had this idea? There was always something for her to do, but she couldn't open her mouth.

Of course Shen Qing would not let her go, she was working for free, and Luo Qin was a martial arts practitioner and was stronger than Huo Lin. If she hadn't been injured, her work would have been even heavier than it was now.

In the evening, four people sat together around a fire. There was a pot hanging on the fire. Sweet potato rice was cooking in the pot. Shen Hui cut some bacon and some vegetables and poured them into the pot. There was a hodgepodge of rice and vegetables. .

It’s time like this, so there’s no need to choose.

Huo Lin sat cross-legged, but looked at Shen Qing, "Sister Qing, what are we going to do next? Isn't it just the few of us who will clear the ground?"

Shen Qing was a little sleepy, "Tomorrow you go to the town to check on the situation, mainly to check on the damage caused by the disaster, and also to see how the restaurants and restaurants are recovering."

Huo Lin didn't ask what he was doing and just nodded.

Shen Qing then said to Shen Hui and Luo Qin: "Tomorrow, the three of us must pick up the undamaged crops as soon as possible and calculate the losses. There is also the most important thing, which is to get the things out of the cellar."

"And there's a cellar?" Even Shen Hui didn't know about this.

Huo Lin also looked confused. Could it be that Shen Qing was talking about their cellar?

When did she hide something in it?

Shen Qing looked calm and said, "Well, sister, is the food ready? I'm starving to death."

"Okay, okay, you guys get the bowls."

The next day, Huo Lin ran to the town early in the morning to check the situation. Shen Qing took a shovel, handed Luo Qin a hoe, and took her to the old site of the Huo family.

Seeing that she seemed unsure of the location of the cellar, Luo Qin was speechless, "How deep is the cellar?" "About three meters. Before we left, I built a few more big rocks to hold down the door panel above, but the flood was so big. , the stone may have been washed away."

"In that case, aren't you afraid that the cellar will get flooded and everything in it will be destroyed?"

"It doesn't matter if they are soaked in water. Some of them are sealed jars. There is also something very important. I found it. Come over and help me dig it out."

As expected, the big stone pressing on it was gone, and the cover was exposed. It was not covered tightly, and the inside was indeed seriously soaked.

"Sister, bring me the water ladle."

"Here we come!" Shen Hui ran over holding a water ladle. When she saw the depth of the water, she worriedly said, "I don't know if there is water in the jar."

It took the three of them an hour to scoop out the water in the cellar. Shen Qing was worried that the cellar would collapse, so he and Luo Qin simply dug up the entire cellar.

There are a total of more than a dozen jars of different sizes inside.

Shen Hui used a rag to clean the mud on it and touched it like a baby, "This is sealed really well, not a single bit is exposed."

Luo Qin thought, could this be Shen Qing's ability to make a comeback?
But Shen Qing took out a bottomless wooden barrel.

"Oh, I took good care of my baby."

She wanted to start a roast duck business, and she told a few people about her idea that night. The expressions on the three people's faces were very wonderful.

Huo Lin has something on his mind and doesn't say it, but everyone can see the way he wants to talk but doesn't say it.

Shen Hui didn't notice Huo Lin's strangeness and just said: "At this time, even if it is made, will anyone buy it?"

Shen Qing disagreed, "As long as the disaster is over and everything settles down, the rich will still be able to live a stable and enjoyable life. Those who cannot survive will only be the poor."

The news brought back by Huolin was that the damage in the town was not serious. Only some low-rise residents had water in their homes, which only covered the table legs. Moreover, most of the houses in the town were made of blue bricks. The old craftsmen in the early years were skilled in craftsmanship. The materials used are solid, even if they are all soaked in water, nothing will happen in a short time.

So after the flood receded, the mayor immediately found people to clear the mud and clean the streets. Many shops opened for business yesterday.

The official road out of the town is not bad, only a little muddy.

But those villages with low terrain suffered. When he came back, he saw that many places were still soaked in water!
"But where are we going to find ducks?"

"Xiao Linzi, see Uncle Fan tomorrow. I have something to tell him."

Several families on the mountain were also affected to some extent.

First of all, all the crops were washed away by the floods. Secondly, the houses of two families were washed away by small-scale mudslides, and two people were missing. It is estimated that it is also a disaster.

The situation of Fan's family was better. Half of the house collapsed and all the crops were gone. However, the poultry was still there, but his old mother was seriously ill.

When he met Boss Fan, the middle-aged man's face was full of vicissitudes of life.

"Uncle Fan, sit down!"

"No, Miss Shen, if you have any questions, just give me your orders." For some reason, when he faced Shen Qing today, he automatically lowered his status and even changed his title.

Shen Qing did not correct him, but sat down by himself, "That's it, Uncle Fan, I want to find a job for you, look at you..."

"Chengcheng, just tell me what the job is."

"I want to buy ducks. I can buy as many ducks as I want. You can help me collect them. I'll give you a penny commission for every catty. How about that?"

"Okay, of course, I just don't know what your requirements are." Boss Fan understood that she was going to do big business again, and the price offered was quite a lot.
