The excavation of the well foundation pit should not be interrupted, so Chen Baiqi did not want to delay the project and would not start construction until everything was in place.

She chose to keep her preparations for well digging and construction secret in Qingjia Village for the time being. She took Mu'er to find the well site before the well digging tools and manpower were ready.

When Mu'er learned that his brother was preparing to dig a well, his expression was dumbfounded and he began to refute no matter what he said. However, Chen Baiqi was patient and sorted out his chaotic thoughts and impossibility, and even gave him

gave him strong confidence.

She can definitely dig out this well and this water!

Chen Baiqi had a clue about the location of the well. She wandered around the village and cut off a slender bamboo. This was the moso bamboo that grew near Qingjia Village. She sharpened the head and roasted it with fire.

Water vapor is hard and strong, so I took it and walked on the soil with my feet while feeling the moisture of the sandy ground with the moso bamboo.

After searching for it this day, she probably knew it in her heart.

On the other hand, she was going to start construction in the village, so Chen Baiqi decided to say hello to "Li Zheng" first.

This is controlled layer by layer, and every mile is as long as it is right.)

Although finding an open space in the village to move some soil and dig some mud was nothing more than a trivial matter. There was no need to find someone to take charge of it, let alone report to the superiors. However, Chen Bai stood up and was not afraid of things.

She knew what the reputation of "Chen Huanxian" was in Qingjia Village. She was afraid that if she started to do serious work, she would be misled and excluded by some idle people in the village, delaying the project in vain, so she asked Old Man Ji to help.

A simple official document is being issued.

Although this was originally a trivial matter of taking off his pants and farting, Old Man Ji, as the "Old Wu" of Qingjia Village (residents who enlisted in the army are collectively referred to as Wu people), happened to be somewhat related to "Li Zheng", so Chen Baiqi asked Old Man Ji to give it to him

He found a bag of chestnuts (about thirty kilograms). After doing this, Chen Baiqi's digging of a well was proved. With the "official certificate", it was completely equivalent to digging a well with a license.

At first, the people in the village didn't know why Chen Baiqi was lame and was poking and stamping here and there on the village land with a thin bamboo stick. They were just surprised that Chen Baiqi, a lazy man, had also been reborn. This cleansed his face.

Really human-like.

But even if Chen Lazyhan grew up, their long-standing prejudices remained unchanged, so they both looked at each other casually and ignored him, only watching what he did to make a fuss.

After Chen Baiqi almost searched the west, north, and south villages of the village, he finally found three sites where digging could be carried out based on relevant knowledge. At this time, Mo Jing's "window" had also been built, and he brought it over to let him

Chen Baiqi took a look at the finished product.

Chen Baiqi squatted in front of the "window", rubbing it and measuring it. She felt that the wood he used was strong and hard, with strong bearing capacity and high dimensional accuracy. Originally, she thought that the difference of two or three millimeters was not a big problem, but Mo Jing understood the truth.

, there is almost no gap visible at the connection, and the top and bottom are basically the same.

Well, it is indeed very good!

Mo Jing disagreed with Chen Baiqi's praise. He was good at carpentry. In the past, there were problems with the finished product, but it was just because of the lack of data. Now, in terms of data correspondence, the finished product is naturally extremely accurate.

Chen Baiqi only had three Qidao left now, which were the ones he had bought for Mo Jing before. She thought that she could not afford his expensive salary, and the cold-hearted Mo Jing did not care about her salary, so she invited him

Please stay and share a meal to repay the favor.

Mo Jing accepted it "reluctantly".

Not long after Mo Jing left, Old Man Ji came over with a smile and brought his men. There were ten people in total. Chen Baiqi took a look and saw that they were all young, fierce and courageous people. However, she made an estimate and thought that ten people were not needed.

Eight remain.

Chen Baiqi asked the workers about their wages, and all eight of them claimed that they were entrusted by Mr. Wu and did not need wages, but only needed to provide two meals a day.

Nowadays, Chen Baiqi really doesn't have much. When he heard the eight people's polite request, he felt grateful to Old Man Ji for his thoughtfulness.

That night, Chen Baiqi checked the "system calendar" and saw that the fourth day of the Lunar New Year should be "breaking ground, breaking ground" and immediately decided to put the construction day in the early morning of the Fourth Lunar New Year.

The sky was clear that day, the weather was just right, the personnel and equipment were all ready, and the construction could begin.

Chen Baiqi's construction work attracted many villagers to watch. When they learned that she was planning to organize people to dig a well, the whole village burst into laughter and all kinds of ridicule and mocking remarks were heard.

A few days ago, Chen Baiqi offended Aunt Wu about Mu'er. She was dissatisfied, so she went around telling gossip about "Chen Huanxian". This made people who already had problems with her look down on her even more, and wanted to take the opportunity to exclude her.

He gathered a group of people and came to cause trouble.

Chen Baiqi did not argue with them. She had known for a long time that such a thing would happen. She calmly took out the "work documents" issued by Li Zheng and claimed that if they were dissatisfied or still wanted to make trouble, they could go to Mr. Li Zheng.

If they still refuse to comply, they may prefer to go to the county government office for a “tour”.

"Chen Huanxian" was already good-looking, but now thanks to Chen Baiqi's temperament, her appearance was as bright as a jade tree facing the wind. She methodically introduced the official regulations that made ordinary people shy away after hearing them, and everyone was immediately intimidated.

Already.

In this village, people have always scolded them if they can't be rebuked, beaten if they can't be scolded, and beaten if they can't be beaten... Then they can make trouble some other time to regain the situation, but there are no scoundrels like this who bring out the government to oppress people as soon as they open their mouths!

This person who doesn't follow the cards at all is simply crazy!

Everyone's faces suddenly turned red, purple and white.

She felt that it was better to do more than to do less. The quarrel was just because she couldn't stand the person who couldn't stand her. There was no deep hatred between them, and they couldn't go to the extent of breaking out and going to court, so they all exchanged glances and cursed each other.

The earth can only leave sadly.

When they left, they all gnashed their teeth and felt angry and suspicious in their hearts. How could this lazy man suddenly have a relationship with Li Zheng? Why bother to dig a broken well in the village and write a broken official document?

How did they know that this place is in charge of such poor villagers in a broken village? Even though he is a small official, he can't make any money at all. He also needs to eat and clothe himself. For such small and convenient things, you can give him some benefits.

He didn't take any trouble, it was just like a favor, it didn't cost anything at all. It was just that ordinary people didn't like to deal with officials, so they found things difficult.

At the same time, they sneered at the fact that this lazy man had not been doing his job since he moved to Qingjia Village, but now he did stupid things. They were gloating in their hearts and secretly praying for bad luck.

Over the years, there have been more than ten well builders in their village who have tried to dig wells, but most of them failed and failed. A very few ignored them and insisted on digging, but even lost their lives. This lazy man Chen

I don’t know what’s wrong with me when I think of digging a well. I just hope that she will lose all her personal wealth in the end, and then she will cry!

Of course, there are also very few people who know that Chen Lahan organized people to dig wells, and they still hope that she can succeed. By then, there will be water in the village. If there is a drought year in the coming year, it will not be as miserable as in previous years.

Already.

Chen Bai's legs and feet were inconvenient and he could not go down the well to do heavy work, so he could only stay on the sidelines and supervise the work, while Mu'er delivered meals to everyone at the construction site.

They first used a "window" to set up at the wellhead, and then used an iron tool to dig down to a certain depth according to the size of the wellhead. Chen Baiqi asked them to pay attention to using wood to reinforce the well during the digging process to prevent the soil from being too watery and prone to collapse.

No one had expected this step, but they felt that this could indeed prevent problems before they happened, and it also protected their lives. The workers were willing to do it without fear of trouble or complaints.

While digging, use a "windlass" from above to pick up the soil below with a wooden bucket and pour it aside.

However, less than two days after the start of the work, Chen Baiqi stopped the workers from digging deeper for unknown reasons. At this time, the well length had reached nearly five meters. She decided to change the well site and informed the workers to rest for two days until further notice.

Come back later.

When Chen Baiqi returned home, she was worried about how to lay out the structure of the well. She didn't understand, and she couldn't go down to the well to supervise the work because of her leg disease. Although she knew the overall situation, she couldn't see the details, so the workers built the well to prevent it from being solidified and cut the stone.

When asked about building stairs and other related matters, it was difficult for her to give an accurate answer.

After thinking about it, she had to find a skilled person with experience in digging wells to help, otherwise it would be difficult to build the well.

Chen Bai asked Old Man Ji about this matter, and Old Man Ji said that digging wells is usually done by looking for someone who understands physiognomy and Feng Shui to see it before construction, and he didn't know any experienced hands who had experience in digging wells.

So Chen Baiqi asked the workers if there were such people.

The workers are all ignorant.

Finally, Chen Baiqi found Mo Jing, and Mo Jing told her very readily this time that he would help her find someone and asked her to wait for two days.

Chen Baiqi was overjoyed and expressed his gratitude to him again and again.

Mo Jing's face suddenly dropped, and he kicked her out coldly, turning his back on her and no longer recognizing her.

Chen Baiqi looked at the closed door and thought bitterly, maybe this person had some symptoms that would make him feel uncomfortable for a few days every month.

After returning home and waiting for two days, Mo Jing came over with a young, dark and muscular man. As soon as he left her there without saying a word, he turned around and left.

Chen Baiqi was used to his independent temperament, so he didn't take it seriously.

Chen Baiqi noticed that this strong man was wearing a half-arm jacket, leggings, trousers, and long boots in the middle of the winter. It was a popular Zhao Guo attire. He was carrying a big bag with bulging bags, and he didn't know what was inside.

, he bowed his back slightly and made a clanging sound as he walked.

Chen Baiqi immediately stepped forward to greet her. She was naturally warm and cordial. She exchanged a few words with him first and casually asked a few questions about digging wells. He immediately answered with clasped fists and a clear answer.

Chen Baiqi's eyes lit up, he really knew what he was doing.

Chen Baiqi brought the man into the house and brought him a bowl of boiled water. Through a delicate tongue, the two gradually became familiar with each other.

Chen Baiqi checked through the system and found that this strong man named Wutong was not a well digger, but a craftsman. He was also a Mo family. Asking such an expert craftsman to carry out a simple well digging project, Chen Baiqi felt that it was a bit unqualified for him.

, but this step is of great significance to her, and it is not easy to dig a well in Qingjia Village. It is estimated that he will know this as soon as he comes into contact with it in the future. His "disapproval" now will probably become

"Race the difficulties".

Before starting the construction, Chen Bai first took Wutong to look around Qingjia Village. Wutong walked around, checking the surface and sand from time to time. He didn't know which method he used, but he concluded that it was difficult to get water out of this land, and it was even more difficult.

Takui, there was a hint of retreat after listening to his words.

Chen Baiqi knew that experienced people would know it at a glance, but she did not give up.

So, she took Wutong to the place where she had chosen the well site and let him take a look.

Wutong looked at them one by one, but was surprised and surprised. He said: You are a strange person. These three places are the only places where springs may exist in Qingjia Village.

He looked again at the first dug well site. The walls of the well were actually reinforced with wood. He suddenly realized that indeed, the mud here was soft and easy to collapse. This would generally prevent the well from collapsing.

This was one of the reasons why he thought it was not possible to dig wells in Qingjia Village, but now she solved it so easily and skillfully, and he couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.

Chen Baiqi said: Everything in this world depends on human effort. Don't give up easily before you try your best.

Wutong felt that these words had far-reaching connotations and were quite a bit inspirational. He immediately bowed to Chen Baiqi and said: "Lang Jun has extraordinary ambitions, and Wutong admires him."
