Chapter 51

Zhang Lan's mood finally calmed down completely during lunch. Zhang Lan's mother asked Zhang Lan while eating: "Why did your Aunt Guihua pass by our door this morning with a scary face and didn't even say hello when she saw me?" , what did you say to him?"

Zhang Lan smiled awkwardly after hearing this, and then remembered that when several people read fortunes in the morning, he only reported worries but not good news.

"It's okay. She wanted to ask about her eldest daughter's condition in the hospital today. The condition is not very good." Zhang Lan replied with an embarrassed smile.

"If the situation is not good, wouldn't you say it tactfully? This child is really bad." Zhang Lan's mother was a little dissatisfied.

"Stop worrying so much and just eat." Zhang Lan's father Zhang Dahai said.

"They are all just like you. They stay at home every day and no one even greets you on the street. I tell you to exercise and you say you are fine, but you still don't go to work when you are fine." Zhang Lan's mother said in a confused voice Turning around, it came to Zhang Lan's father, and the old couple started to quarrel.Zhang Lan snickered inwardly while eating. She quickly finished her meal and said, "I'm going to my old house" and ran away.

At the old house, Zhang Lan was going to tidy up the ancient well in front of the house. He removed the big bluestone that sealed the wellhead, took a look at the well wall made of bluestone, and then looked at the dark bottom of the well.

Zhang Lan looked up and saw that there was no one around. He squatted down and stretched out his palms to press the edge of the well. As he softly recited the sentence "Big Rock Breaks", the situation of the ancient well gradually formed an image in his mind. After careful investigation, he finished.Zhang Lan withdrew his senses, stood up and covered the well mouth with the large bluestone slab on the side.

The ancient well is about 30 meters deep. The spring that was dug before is now basically out of water due to the deeper and deeper groundwater.Drilling down the wellhead, it will take about 30 meters to reach a large spring, and about 45 meters to reach a main spring. Zhang Lan needs to think carefully.This ancient well does not belong to his family. I just checked the underground waterway. If it doesn't work, it would be a good idea to dig another motorized well. The water from the main spring 80 meters away is enough to irrigate the ground.

After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Lan shook his head.If you continue to pump, it is better to find a new position and pump again. If the amount of water pumped is enough, if someone is jealous and releases the water pump, it will be troublesome.

Find a new position in the yard and take another shot. This will save a lot of disputes.However, if we want to dig a well again, it is better to contract it out in Xigou Village and then drill it. Once that area is contracted, we can find a good location to drill a well with a depth of more than 100 meters, which will basically be enough for the entire hillside.

The old house should use the village's tap water pipes. Although the water pressure is often insufficient, it can still cope with daily water use.It's just that watering vegetables with water is sometimes a little troublesome, but it's not a big problem.

Zhang Lan thought for a while and decided to discuss it with his parents first. The last time he mentioned it, he didn't have enough money at the time. Plus his cousin Zhang Hu's dissuasion, Zhang Lan temporarily gave up his attention.This period of time has passed, and the more Zhang Lan thinks about the Xigou Village Barrage, the more she feels that it is a good place. As long as there is enough water, the problems Zhang Hu mentioned will not be a problem.

From the entrance of Xigou Village to the innermost barrage, although the wasteland on both sides of the river is relatively dry and barren, it adds up to one or two hundred acres. When the time comes to dig a deep well and lay out the pipes, even planting sweet potatoes will make a lot of money in a year. .And sweet potatoes are relatively worry-free. You only need two days of labor when planting and digging.The large piece of land at the entrance of Xigou Village can be planted with corn when there is water, and jujube trees are planted on the slopes on both sides. Except for the large investment required in the first two years, after that, you can basically make a steady profit.Zhang Lan carefully calculated that there are two main risks now. The first is water. If there is not enough water, Zhang Lan's ideas will be castles in the air.The second is the risk after contracting. If you make money and fail to suppress the envy of others, the contract will be like a piece of waste paper.

Now Zhang Lan is somewhat of a minor celebrity, and his farming profits of over RMB 10,000 a year are still manageable.As for water, exploring a water channel with sufficient water is now something Zhang Lan can do at his fingertips, which means there is no big risk and this can be done.Zhang Lan made up her mind.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Lan first ran to the village committee to inquire. After hearing Zhang Lan's intention, the village chief Zhang Dashan wondered if he had heard wrongly. He looked at Zhang Lan as if he were a fool and said, "Zhang Lan, you are not." Are you kidding me? You said you were going to contract the entire barren ravine from the entrance to Xigou Village to the back end? Did you say you were wrong or was I wrong?"

"You didn't listen, uncle, I just want to take over the Xigou area." Zhang Lan chuckled twice, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to Zhang Dashan.

"Zhang Lan, don't make such a silly smile. This is no joke. Even if you contract the [-] acres of river beach land at the south end of the village, it's better than that of Xigou, so it's just a waste of money." Village chief Zhang Dashan waved his hand , in response to Zhang Lan’s earnest persuasion.

"It's okay, uncle, I've made the calculation. Plant jujube trees on both slopes and sweet potatoes on the wasteland. As long as the contract is for more than 20 years, except for the larger cost in the first two years, you can make money later." Zhang Lan explained.

"You're so easy to fart. You said that someone in the village has made a deal in the past two years. That place can't store water. If you dig a well for 50 to [-] meters and pump it down for an hour, there will be no water. You can't grow anything." That jujube tree won't grow anything if it's not watered for seven or eight years. Stop talking here, your uncle and I will make the decision for you, so you won't win." Zhang Dashan and Zhang Lan's father, Zhang Dahai, are brothers of the same race. , the fifth server has not yet been released, the kind that wants to greet each other during the New Year.

"Uncle Dashan, you are a bit unreasonable. How do you know I can't grow it?" Zhang Lan and Zhang Dashan argued.

"Zhang Lan, I'm not telling you. I know you've made a lot of money in the past two months. But you're still young, and being a great immortal is not a serious matter. Now you have some money, so let me see you concentrate on taking the exam. "Study, I'll give you a try when I have time. Let's take the exam to become a rural doctor. With your acupuncture skills, you will have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life." Zhang Dashan turned around and began to persuade Zhang Lan.

Zhang Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. Indeed, if he didn't have a system.Now I can keep the millions I have on my hands, go to medical school, study for five or six years, practice for a period of time, and when I am about 40 years old, I will have a medical certificate and my superb acupuncture skills, and I will be able to do anything for the rest of my life. Come out like yourself.

What Zhang Dashan said was indeed a serious path, but it was a pity that Zhang Lan did not have the patience to take such a path. At the age of 30, he really doesn't have the patience to turn around and go to medical school to learn from scratch, or to hire a teacher to increase his qualifications.
