Era: Starting from cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi

Chapter 155 The big secret of Shuangshui Bay

"Uncle, it's all done."

At Sun Xiangyang's home, Zhang Jiadong took the hot water from his wife, took a few sips, and then held it in his hands to warm it, with a bit of pride on his face.

"Nothing unexpected happened, right?"

"No, that guy was quite tough when he was first arrested. He thought we were just arresting him for the Shuangshui Bay incident and clamored to see the man named Ding. Later, he panicked when he found out the truth."

Zhang Jiadong didn't actually know about the rumors at first. When he came last time, he thought Sun Xiangyang just wanted to catch them all as soon as possible, so he asked him to arrest the Feng Shui master.

On the way to find someone, I heard the rumor again and immediately realized.

It turns out that the other party has already provoked Shuangshui Bay first. After all, ordinary people may not know about things like the real dragon's lair.

A Feng Shui master suddenly appeared, and then there were rumors like this. In addition, the master uncle suddenly asked about this matter. Isn't the answer still unclear?

So after he led people to catch the other party, they just conducted a simple interrogation. Wang Li, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, told the story of the two people's conspiracy.

It turns out that these two guys have already used dirty tricks in Shuangshuiwan.

Then after asking around for a while, I learned that Sha Hongcheng went to several production brigades to spray spray.

He felt that his judgment was indeed correct.

So, he led the three police officers to Shuangshuiwan to clarify the rumors.

Everything was a lie concocted by Wang Li and a liar.

There is no real dragon's lair in Shuangshui Bay at all.

Looking at it now, the effect is pretty good.

"After the news spreads, will it alert the people in that gang?"

Sun Xiangyang asked again.

Catching that Feng Shui master is just the beginning. Only by catching them all in one fell swoop will there be no worries.

"Uncle, don't worry. That guy's mouth is not that tight. He already vomited a lot of things last night. I guess if I apply more force, it will be enough. It will take a day or two at most to close the net. The other party will never be able to react."

Zhang Jiadong said confidently.

Although this matter has been fermented in the commune and the rest of the production brigade has also known about it, it is not so easy to convey the news nowadays, and Zhang Jiadong has been prepared for this for a long time.

"That's fine, don't be careless."

Sun Xiangyang nodded.

A strange thing happened in Shuangshui Bay that day, that is, the water level in Xiaoxian Well suddenly rose by two or three meters. Now there is no need to use ropes, and buckets can be hung directly on poles to easily drain the water. Call it up.

This incident undoubtedly caused a small sensation. Many people swore that they would never look like this when they came to fetch water in the morning. For this reason, some people even invited Sun Xiangyang and the old party secretary.

As for the rising water level, the two of them could naturally guess the reason, but they couldn't tell.

In the end, Sun Xiangyang gave a random reason to fool him.

But privately, some people say that the reason why the water level in Xiaoxian Well is rising is because the luck in Shuangshui Bay is rising.

Anyway, many people are convinced of this statement and are more motivated.

In the next two days, as the story of the three police officers coming to Shuangshui Bay was spread, everyone suddenly realized that no wonder there was a sudden rumor that there was a real dragon's lair in Shuangshui Bay. It turned out that there was really a villain behind it.

At the same time, the grudge between Wang Li and Shuangshuiwan was also revealed. Coupled with the things he did in the past, even his uncle would definitely not be able to protect him.

On the contrary, the caught Feng Shui master liar did not attract much attention. After all, there were many such liars in the past. Later, with the attack, they all hid and did not dare to show their faces.

But just because you don't dare to take the lead doesn't mean you don't have it. Especially in the past two years, things have been gradually relaxed and some things that have 'disappeared' have come back one after another.

On the Shuangshui Bay side, the road from the fork in the road to the coal yard has also begun to be rebuilt.

However, the water on the back of the bow was pulled back, turning it into a jade ring waist.

Even the coal mining experts invited by the company finally came to Shuangshui Bay and began a detailed survey of the coal seams below, and helped formulate a mining plan and safety production regulations.

Sun Xiangyang then called everyone back together. After Sun Enguang's public review, Sun Xiangyang announced the rules of the mine in the future. If you want to work, you must undergo strict training, and everyone must firmly memorize the safety production code.

Only after passing the 'examination' can one work in the well.

If you still can't pass, you will have no choice but to farm.

Although many people complained about this, no one backed down. It is indeed hard and tiring to dig coal, but don’t forget that the coal mines in Shuangshui Bay produce high-quality coal. As long as it is dug out, it will The energy can be sold continuously without worrying about it being piled up there and no one cares about it.

In other words, they can work all year round.

Ten work points a day, and you can earn more if you work overtime.

At the end of a year, at least 4,000 to 5,000 work points can be earned. Compared with farming, you can even earn twice as many work points.

There are also rumors that the coal mines will undergo reforms in the next two years and the benefits will be further improved.

In this situation, anyone who shrinks from the slightest difficulty is a fool.

There are still many people out there who want to work in the coal mines, but if they don't want to, people will naturally rob them.

"Xiang Yang, is our coal mine a little strict?"

In the past two days, Sha Hongcheng directly left all the road construction matters to Sha Zhaoliang, the team leader. He stayed at Shuangshui Bay every day, looking around and touching things when there was nothing wrong.

Whatever thoughts and ideas you have, that’s what Sima Zhao has in mind.

No matter Sun Xiangyang or the old party secretary, they all have a clear mind.

Obviously, Sha Hongcheng was tempted by the old party secretary's previous proposal.

He saw with his own eyes the changes when the village monument was erected, and then the water level in Xiaoxian Well rose for no reason, as well as his observations over the past two days, and he even stayed here for one night.

He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt that he slept more peacefully and sweetly here.

For this reason, he also secretly asked several old people in Shuangshui Bay, and the answers he got were all similar.

This undoubtedly made the balance in his heart tilt even more.

But the relocation of a village is definitely not a trivial matter. It not only requires the consent of the commune, but also requires the nod of the county before reporting to the area.

On the contrary, he was not too worried about the opinions from Shapingba.

In addition, there is still too little land for farming in Shuangshui Bay. Even the black land is less than 100 acres. It is definitely enough to supply Shuangshui Bay, but adding Shapingba, which has a larger population, will definitely be insufficient. It's not enough.

You can’t just rely on buying food from now on, right?

It was this reason that made him feel unsure.

After those few years, everyone realized that no matter what time, only land that can grow crops is the foundation for a life.

Unless Shuangshuiwan can be found and reclaimed more farmland.

"Secretary Sha, the rules should be stricter for the sake of everyone. If you try to do something quickly and save trouble, sooner or later you will end up risking your own life."

Sun Xiangyang said seriously.

Why are there so many accidents in small coal mines?

It's just because of cost savings that we don't take safety or human life seriously, and we just focus on digging more coal. It's no wonder that nothing happens.

As for the coal mine in Shuangshui Bay, Sun Xiangyang planned to follow the regulations from the beginning and focus on safety. He would rather go slower and have lower output than have an accident.

"Forget it, I'll just say it casually. Anyway, you have the final say here, but I also heard from your captain that Shuangshui Bay will have electricity next year?"

Sha Hongcheng asked curiously.

There is electricity here, and even over there in Shapingba, you can only light kerosene lamps at night.

"We have this plan, but this time the power supply is not unified by the above. We have found a relationship in Shuangshuiwan and are preparing to connect the power ourselves. However, we still lack a lot of money, so we hope that the coal dug out next year can be sold for more money."

"Can the Shapingba area also be powered on?"

Sha Hongcheng's mind suddenly came alive.

"Sha Zhishu, although I haven't calculated the cost yet, wires, poles, and most importantly, transformers, all cost a lot of money. Can Shapingba come up with so much money?

Moreover, even if Shapingba is connected to electricity, it can only provide lighting for everyone, which is not worth the cost. "

"That's right. If we have this money, we might as well share it with everyone."

Sha Hongcheng nodded.

Today's Shapingba can no longer compare with Shuangshuiwan, and the power supply here in Shuangshuiwan is also for the coal mine to dig out more coal. And with the power, the black land and the original terraces will be replaced. With access to irrigation, food production will also increase.

Thinking of this, Sha Hongcheng felt even more uncomfortable.

When he heard from the old party secretary that Sun Xiangyang wanted to build Shuangshuiwan into such a pearl, he thought Sun Xiangyang was too whimsical. Even if he had a coal mine, it would still be far behind.

But now, seeing that people are not impatient and taking one step at a time, it seems to be getting better and better.

And this only took less than half a year. If it were three years, five years, or even ten years later, what would Shuangshui Bay look like?

If Shapingba doesn't seize this opportunity, it can only watch Shuangshui Bay running further and further away, and will never be able to keep up.

Even if they really wait until then, even if Shapingba wants to move here, people may not pay attention to them.

In particular, Sun Xiangyang's involvement with Shapingba mainly stems from his younger brother. To put it bluntly, my younger brother is so old. If he closes his eyes one day and does not open them, it will be equivalent to cutting off the last connection.

When the time comes, will Sun Xiangyang still take care of Shapingba?

If he dies again.

I guess the two sides have nothing to do with each other, right?

Thinking of this, Sha Hongcheng became a little anxious.

"Xiang Yang, what do you think about Shapingba moving to Shuangshuiwan?"

"Moving to Shuangshui Bay? Secretary Sha, this is not a trivial matter. You have to think about it clearly."

Although Sun Xiangyang has always had this idea, and the old party secretary is constantly helping him, he also understands that this matter is very difficult.

I originally thought that when Shuangshuiwan reaches a higher level next year, and then throws out some temptations, the other party will be attracted.

Unexpectedly, in just two days, the other party could not wait and took the initiative to make this proposal.

"I think clearly, there is no way out in Shapingba. Although you helped dig a well, if you use water from the reservoir there to irrigate the fields, the harvest will be less and less. It is better to rely on God to provide food for you. Find a way out.

You are not an outsider anyway, so I won’t hide you.

The coal mines here in Shuangshui Bay are almost the only way out for Shapingba now, and if you turn the real dragon's cave into a feng shui that protects the entire Shuangshui Bay, you might be able to live a few more years if you live here. No matter how much money you make, Can't buy it.

Moreover, I know Sun Yude. He has always hidden good things for himself, let alone sharing them. He has repeatedly encouraged me to move Shapingba here. Is it your idea?

Although I don't know why you insist on merging Shapingba to Shuangshui Bay, except that the population of Shuangshui Bay will be larger in the future, I can't see any benefit anyway. Even if the population increases, the burden will increase. The key is that there is not enough land to grow food. What if something happens in the future and food cannot be bought outside? "

Sha Hongcheng expressed his concerns one by one, and then looked at Sun Xiangyang expectantly.

Regarding these questions, Sun Xiangyang actually has the answers. Only by developing and expanding Shuangshui Bay and increasing the population of Shuangshui Bay can he gain more experience. Otherwise, if he expects the current population of Shuangshui Bay, even if he opens up, there will be no life. After several generations, the population will not increase.

Therefore, the best way is to migrate the foreign population and completely become Shuangshuiwan people.

But this is his point of view. From a normal person's point of view, it is indeed a bit thankless for him to do so. Now that he is in Shuangshuiwan, his weight in the heart of the old party secretary has reached the level of "obedience".

Otherwise, the old branch secretary would be the first to object to the relocation of Shapingba.

How could the other party not think of the problems that Sha Hongcheng could think of?

But the old party secretary believed in Sun Xiangyang, so he supported him regardless of principle.

But the nature of the problem will not change because of this blind trust. Sun Xiangyang also needs to come up with a sufficient reason to convince everyone.

"Secretary Sha, do you think Shuangshuiwan can develop in the future just by relying on this coal mine?"

Sun Xiangyang did not directly answer Sha Hongcheng's question, but asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it possible? This coal mine is a treasure mountain, enough to provide Shuangshuiwan with food and clothing for the rest of his life."

Sha Hongcheng looked at Sun Xiangyang in confusion.

"That's just food and clothing, and it's far from being developed. In my vision, Shuangshuiwan relies on this coal mine to accumulate the most primitive capital, and then it will transform and find a road that is truly suitable for Shuangshuiwan. The characteristic path of water bay development.

Especially the discovery of the True Dragon's Cave this time, combined with the black land, also gave me some ideas. That land will definitely not be used simply to grow crops in the future, otherwise it will be a waste of land.

But I will have to discuss this matter with Professor Qian later and ask for his advice.

In addition, since Shuangshui Bay is a geomantic treasure land, there are no other resources except the coal mine?

And these, just counting on the three hundred people in Shuangshuiwan are not enough.

That’s why I hope that there will be more people in Shuangshui Bay, and then everyone will work together to truly develop Shuangshui Bay, a geomantic treasure land, and turn Shuangshui Bay into a real green water and green mountain, so that the people here can grow old You have someone to rely on, you have someone to support you, and you become a place that others envy and yearn for.

As for the food problem you mentioned, the lack of arable land, it's actually very simple. I looked around with my Xunlong Ruler and I didn't believe I couldn't find arable land that could grow food.

Furthermore, I believe that the days of food shortage in the past will never happen again in the future. As long as you have money, you can buy enough food.

Of course, it is too early to say this now, but no matter what, Shuangshuiwan must have enough talents. "

Sun Xiangyang sketched out a little bit of what he was thinking and the blueprint for the future.

But this part made Sha Hongcheng blush with excitement.

Can Sun Xiangyang do it?

He believes it can.

Especially when the other party said that there might be other resources in Shuangshui Bay, he was even more moved. Could it be...

The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

Since Sun Xiangyang could discover black land and coal mines, couldn't he discover other things?

Just because the population of Shuangshui Bay is too small, even if it is taken out, it will be useless. Instead, it will arouse the covetousness of outsiders.

Only Shuangshuiwan is strong enough and has enough people to take it out.

This can also explain why Sun Xiangyang wanted to move Shapingba here.

After all, the two sides have a basis for cooperation, and Sun Xiangyang's master is his younger brother, who is also very popular in Shapingba. Isn't it just like his own family?

If your own family has benefits or difficulties, if you don’t look to your own family, how can you look to outsiders?

At this moment, Sha Hongcheng felt like he was enlightened. All his previous doubts would be solved, and then he said with a serious face.

"Xiang Yang, don't worry. Before you reveal this secret, I will not reveal it even if I die. Moreover, I will prepare for the relocation of Shapingba when I return, and I will ensure that it will not delay your plan."

Sun Xiangyang was a little confused when he heard what Sha Hongcheng said.

What secret?

Did he just tell a secret?

As for his plan, it is just to move more people to Shuangshui Bay. Only by completely turning the people from Shapingba into people from Shuangshui Bay can he continuously gain experience points from the other party.

Even if the sudden migration of so many people will increase the pressure on Shuangshui Bay, in Sun Xiangyang's view, it is all worth it.

And that coal mine is also his biggest support at present.

Otherwise, Shuangshuiwan would still farm as before, let alone Sha Hongcheng who would not agree, even he would not have this idea.

"Secretary Sha, will the higher-ups agree to this? If not, I can..."

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter even if the company and the county don't agree. Do you still remember the pen I gave you last time? That person works in the district now. It's no problem to approach him for this little matter."

Sha Hongcheng said confidently.

"Well, forget about the New Year. After the New Year, the coal here will have begun to be shipped out. It won't be too late to make money."

Only then did Sun Xiangyang feel relieved.

Moreover, it is not a trivial matter for Shapingba to relocate here. Among other things, the cave dwellings must be dug in advance, and this also requires early planning.

Fortunately, in the area where Shuangshuiwan currently lives, it is not a big problem to dig another two to three hundred cave dwellings, which is enough for all the people in Shapingba to move here.

For water, there is Xiaoxian Well.

Grain can be bought back when the coal is sold for money.

Plowing the land, at worst he would have to look around.

At the same time, as long as there is money and electricity is available, the scale of coal mines will inevitably expand further, and more people will be needed.

If paper-cutting goes on the right track, some women can also take a break from farm work and specialize in paper-cutting.

So even if all the people from Shapingba move here, there is no need to worry about being unable to digest the food and running out of work.

"That's what I plan to do, but I have to talk to the captain Zhao Liang about this matter later so that he can be prepared. By the way, this is a Feng Shui treasure land. Can you tell him about it?

Don't worry, I have watched Zhao Liang since I was a child. I can definitely trust him, and I will definitely not talk nonsense about him. "

Sha Hongcheng finally asked.

"There is no need to keep the matters here secret from Mr. Sha and Captain Sha Zhaoliang."

Sun Xiangyang didn't hesitate much and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, that's it, I'll go back first."

With his worries over, Sha Hongcheng couldn't wait to go back to Shapingba. When he got out of the small room at the coal mine, he didn't go far when he met the old branch secretary walking towards this side with his hands behind his back.

In the past, he would have had to say a few words to the other party, but today, he was too lazy to talk to the other party. Anyway, he had already negotiated with Sun Xiangyang.

So when passing by the other person, he simply raised his head, put his hands behind his back like the same example, and left proudly.

"Did you take the wrong medicine?"

The old party secretary didn't react for a while. He didn't say angrily until he saw the other party walking away.

It's a pity that Sha Hongcheng didn't hear what he said, otherwise he would have told him that he was taking magic medicine.

"Xiang Yang, what did you say to Sha?"

After seeing Sun Xiangyang, the old party secretary couldn't help but ask.

"I talked about the relocation of Shapingba, and Party Secretary Sha agreed."

Sun Xiangyang said directly.

"He just agreed? Did he put any conditions?"

The old branch secretary asked in surprise.

"Did not mention."

Sun Xiangyang shook his head, and felt a little enlightened at the same time. It seemed that the matter was a bit simple. It seemed that after he finished describing it, the other party directly agreed without even mentioning any conditions.

As for talking to Sha Zhaoliang about this matter, it is the right thing to do.

In any case, Sha Zhaoliang is the captain of Shapingba, so the relocation of Shapingba will naturally require his contribution.

"That's weird, but let's ignore him for now. Have you really considered relocating Shapingba?"

The old party secretary shook his head, then looked at Sun Xiangyang seriously and asked.

This incident is not only a major event for Shapingba, but also a major event for Shuangshuiwan.

"Well, I've thought about it. It's better to do this sooner rather than later. I'll walk around in a couple of days to see if I can find some more farmland. I can't let people come without work."

Sun Xiangyang said.

"Now that you have thought about it, I won't say anything else. But there is one thing. Didn't you ask me before who named Shuangshui Bay?

I went back and asked a few old people, and it seems that this matter is still related to your family. At that time, in addition to your grandfather, there was also a cousin of yours who came here, which is the lineage of your family that stayed in the county. .

The name Shuangshui Bay was chosen with his help.

But your grandfather's cousin lived here for a while, then left, and it seems he never came back again.

Also, your father was away for two months before he helped find the first well.

Of course, I may have remembered it wrong, you just need to know this yourself. "

The old branch secretary thought about it for a moment and slowly told an inside story from that year.

"I see."

Sun Xiangyang's heart moved, and he understood vaguely.

That night, Zhang Jiadong and Geng Guohai came to his house together carrying flashlights.

When they first met, Geng Guohai was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Sun Xiangyang, who had sharp eyes and quick hands.

"Captain Xiangyang, if it weren't for the Five Emperors Money you gave me, I might not have been able to see you this time."

"What happened?"

Sun Xiangyang was shocked after hearing this and looked at Zhang Jiadong who looked ashamed.

　I was delayed by something during the day. This chapter only has 6,000 words. I will make up 10,000 words tomorrow.
