Chapter 94 Using space to transport water
“Miss Fourth, what do you think?”
Yu Wan walked around Zhuangzi for a long time. The seedlings were planted well and there were no floating seedlings.
“Very good, it’s just a matter of taking care of it from now on, just pay attention.”
“Yes, Miss Fourth, I’ll spare you the trouble, old slave.” Zhu Dagui responded happily. He had not been busy in vain these days. Looking at the seedlings planted in the field, he felt inexplicably happy.
Fields are the basis for farmers’ survival. No farmer wants to see the fields bare.
Now that the water problem has been solved, as long as it is taken care of carefully, it will be a good harvest year.
Zhu Dagui looked at Yu Wan, who was only ten years old, and admired him for his great ability.
Yu Wan went back to the county town that afternoon. She originally wanted to see if there were any Zhuangzi for sale in the town, but after thinking about it, she decided not to. The Zhuangzi in this town was not big, so she might as well go to Fucheng to buy.
Having made arrangements after going back, there is still time to go to Fucheng. At this time, it is most cost-effective to sell the village and hire someone.
This Great Yan Empire has a vast territory and abundant resources. As long as you have money, you don’t have to worry about buying land, and you can even open up wasteland yourself.
It is more cost-effective to open up wasteland than to buy Zhuangzi now. It is simply a matter of huge profits. The land that is opened belongs to whoever opens it. There is no need to pay taxes for the first five years, and the payment is very small. It is settled on a one-year basis.
Yu Wan plans to visit Fucheng when the time comes. There are mountains, water, and land over there, but the land over there is still plain.
And she saw a lot of wasteland, which could be reclaimed and planted with crops.
It was already dark when Yu Wan returned to Yu Mansion. She simply ate something and then asked Mrs. Wu to find Zong Zheng.
“Miss Fourth, are you looking for an old slave?”
Yu Wan nodded: "As for the Zhuangzi matter, tomorrow morning you ask all the family members to go out and dig a reservoir in each Zhuangzi. Let me know when you have dug it."
Zong Zheng said: "Okay, Miss Fourth, the land on Zhuangzi has been plowed, what kind of seeds are you going to plant?"
Yu Wan thought: "Let's plant cotton, soybeans, and corn."
These three are the most suitable now. Ninety percent of the fields are empty this year, and these will be in short supply in the future.
Yu Wan told Zong Zheng the method of teaching Zhu Dagui in the town, then washed up and went to sleep.
The next day, when Yu Wan got up, everyone in the house had already set off to Zhuangzi, and only Shu Bo, the concierge, was left.
After Yu Wan had eaten, she left the south gate and went to the river behind Zhuangzi.
She rode all the way and soon reached the river. She took a closer look and said, "The water level in the river is so low."
Yu Wan frowned. The water in the river might dry up before the summer, and there shouldn't be much water in the mountains.
She walked to the river, put her hand into the river, and silently said "suck" in her mind. She saw the water in the river flowing towards her at the speed of the naked eye.
This method is good, but she can only use it for her own family. This will make other outsiders see her and not take her as anything.
She wants to help, but if she can’t bear it, others will think that she is an evil person, and it is difficult to maintain the space issue.
In the end, Yu Wan gave up this idea. She filled the space pond with water before leaving. Fortunately, no one came here when she was in Zhuangzi.
Three days passed by in a flash. The ponds in the three villages were dug, and Yu Wan filled the three ponds with water that night.
Zongzheng recruited a hundred people in these three days. On the fourth day, a hundred people went to the fields to plant cotton, soybeans, corn, and irrigate the fields. It was a lively scene.
Yu Wan is wandering around inside, and she will say something appropriate when she sees someone who is inappropriate.
Even Zongzheng can't stand it.
At this time, some people began to wonder where the water came from.
“Hey, it’s strange, this pond is newly dug, why is there water?”
"I'm talking about Ershui. Our boss invited us to come and do the work. Don't talk too much. Maybe the boss has money and it's possible to transport it from the river."
"Yes, Brother Ershui, Brother Xiaofan is right, work quickly and don't be too troublesome."
Whoever has the ability to get water and grow crops in this drought year is the uncle. How can they, the common people in the village, say sour things?
The three of them fell silent and continued working.
Yu Wan happened to hear it when she passed by. She was glad that the people who asked Zong Zheng to dig the pond could not be put into the village to work.
Although she was suspected of being deceitful, she had no other choice but to hide it whenever she could.
This matter reminded Yu Wan that it seemed that he still had to buy someone to come back and take care of the crops.
When she arrives in Fucheng, she will definitely not hire anyone. Even if she transplants the rice slowly, the seedlings grown in the space will definitely grow faster than the seedlings outside. The later time will be just right.
In this way, Yu Wan helped look after the fields during the day. At night, after everyone fell asleep, she moved the seedlings out and applied the small cloud and rain technique to all the crops planted in the field during the day.
There were not enough manpower in the middle, so Zongzheng recruited dozens more people, and it took five days to plant all the fields in the four villages.
“Uncle Zong, there is nothing going on at home now. It’s just that Zhuangzi has sent someone to take care of it. You have arranged to take someone with me to the capital in two days.”
When Zongzheng heard that he was going to Fucheng, he was naturally willing. He said, "Okay, Miss Fourth."
The next day, Yu Wan came to Yaxing again. Shopkeeper Wu had been waiting for several days, and finally saw her here today.
Shopkeeper Wu greeted me with a smile: "How are you, Miss Yu?"
Yu Wan asked straight to the point: "Shopkeeper Wu, we are going to Fucheng tomorrow. Is it convenient for you to go?"
“Convenient, convenient,” shopkeeper Wu thought, even if it is not convenient to give money to a boy, it must be convenient.
“Okay, we’ll meet you in Yaxing early tomorrow morning,” Yu Wan said.
“Okay, okay, I’ll be waiting for Miss Yu tomorrow.”
Yu Wan nodded and said goodbye to Shopkeeper Wu. She then went to the end of another street and found a liquor store.
The wine in her space has not been replenished since she ran out of it. She has to replenish some today.
Yu Wan could smell the aroma of wine from afar. It was true that the aroma of wine was not afraid of the depth of the alley.
Yu Wan walked in. It was an old shop. There weren't many drinks inside, and a waiter was dozing off on the table.
“Ahem, cough, cough, this little second brother,” Yu Wan stepped forward and shouted.
The waiter raised his hazy eyes and saw that it was a little girl. He said displeasedly: "Buy wine?"
Yu Wan nodded: "How much wine do you have left?"
“How much? There must be several thousand kilograms, can you buy them all?”
“How much does it cost per pound?”
The waiter said impatiently: "One hundred yuan per catty."
Yu Wan frowned: "Is it so expensive?"
“Don’t buy it if it’s too expensive,” the waiter said irritably.
Yu Wan was unhappy. She couldn’t even ask her what kind of drink this waiter was.
“You waiter, if I owned the store, I would have kicked you out early in the morning. When customers come to the store to buy things, of course they have to ask questions. You still look unhappy. You are really crazy.”
The waiter's face was distorted with anger. He pointed at Yu Wangang and was about to curse.
Yu Wan threw a burst of spiritual power in his face.
