Chapter 74 The Dragon King takes food from his mouth
The time for harvesting wheat is coming in a blink of an eye. The rich experience has enabled Zheng Lizheng to make a correct judgment again.
Starting from the wheat harvesting, every family in the village went out in two days. Men are the main force in harvesting wheat, and the strong women are never behind. The elderly and less powerful women gather the wheat in clusters behind, and even the children are not idle, and they are very happy to pick up the wheat ears behind.
Everyone is passionately contributing their strength to harvesting wheat.
Only Wei Renshi looked up at the sky and stared at the divine.
There is an endless blue sky in the sky, with a few clouds floating casually, casting huge shadows on the ground.
The sun swells from the blue sky, and it looks like a nice sunny day.
But when Wei Renshi woke up in the morning, he found that the outside of his water tank was full of water droplets.
Moreover, when Wei Renshi arrived at his own field, he found that the earthworms in the field had their heads raised and crawled from the soil to the ground.
These two discoveries told Wei Renshi that it is very likely to rain.
What is Mai Tian’s most afraid of?
It's just raining.
After the wheat is ripe, if it rains before it has been harvested, the rain will knock the mature wheat grains into the mud, seriously reducing the harvest. Moreover, the wheat grains falling into the mud will sprout quickly and can no longer be used as food. Even if it has been harvested when it rains, the wheat grains will become moldy due to moisture or rain.
But it was because the weather was hot during the wheat harvest. At this time, the climate in the northern region often changed, with high activity in the clouds, and the rain came fiercely and quickly. The sky was clear in the first minute, and the wheat was leisurely drying, and the next minute, the rain might be fierce, and it turned into a pouring rain in the blink of an eye, and it could not be harvested.
Wei Renshi has seen it with his own eyes in his later generations. He suddenly encountered a heavy rain while drying wheat. The wheat was too late to harvest. Not only was it wet, but it was also brewed by rain. The harvest of the year was heavy, and some farmers even stood in the rain and cried loudly.
With this in mind, Wei Renshi couldn't care whether his judgment was accurate or not, so he hurried to find Zheng Lizheng.
I searched several places in a row before I found him.
Wei Renshi quickly pulled him aside.
"What's wrong with Wei Langjun?" Zheng Lizheng was suddenly pulled away by Wei Renshi and asked in confusion.
Wei Renshi said solemnly: "Uncle Zheng, please make everyone work harder and faster, it's best to finish the cutting today. I think it's going to rain this day!"
"It's raining?" Zheng Lizheng looked up at the sky and said, "This is not true?"
"Uncle Zheng, just believe me and let everyone get faster." Wei Renshi said: "And don't rush to the wheat field after collecting it."
Seeing Wei Renshi's expression serious, Zheng Lizheng asked, "Wangjun Wei thinks it will rain?"
"I can't explain it to you for a moment!" Wei Renshi said anxiously: "Uncle Zheng, believe me. Even if it doesn't rain, it's not a bad thing to be faster, right?!"
Zheng Li was thinking for a while and said, "Okay!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked back to the field quickly, greeted a few young legs and feet, and ordered: "Go and pass messages to each family, just say it might rain, so that everyone can be faster! Don't rush to send it to the wheat field after the cutting, take it back to your home first! Go quickly!"
"Can it rain still rain this day?" After hearing this, those people all looked up at the sky and said in confusion.
"Moduo asked, go and pass the message." Zheng Lizheng ordered: "This is what Wei Langjun said. Whoever Wei Langjun must have his own reason."
"What Wei Langjun said? OK!" After Wei Renshi said several people, they immediately became serious, nodded, and immediately ran to pass the message.
It is no wonder that Wei Renshi made another farm tool to cut wheat. After the villagers saw the convenience of harvesting wheat, the villagers respected Wei Renshi even more and followed his advice.
Everyone ran to pass the message, while Wei Ren frowned and looked at the sky and searched the ground. But the more carefully he looked, the lower his heart became.
Swallows fly low and snakes walk in the aisle, ants move in the mountains and wear hats. The water tank is sweating and the toads scream, and the heavy rain comes soon.
Wei Renshi hopes that his judgment is wrong.
But after lunch, the sky, which was originally clear and clear, became gloomy in almost a moment.
Zheng Li was starting to run around the village and shouted that each family should hurry up and grab the wheat. The already-cut wheat was moved back home to find a place to avoid water.
Every household didn't care about eating the labor rice, so they threw the bowl and ran straight to the ground.
Soon, a loud thunder came from the distance.
"Hurry! Move back quickly!" Zheng Li shouted in the fields: "Who else hasn't finished cutting the wheat?"
For a moment, the village was filled with chaotic footsteps and shouts, and every household was rushing to harvest wheat in the rumbling thunder.
"alright!"
"Okay OK!"
"It's better here too!"
Finally, voices came from the fields, making Wei Renshi's heart slightly relieved.
After paying taxes, there are not many left to these villagers themselves. If they are to be wet in the rain, they will suffer heavy losses. However, the tax will never be reduced because of the losses caused by farmers. It is common to unload tiles and sell land at that time.
"Have you put them all away?" Zheng Lizheng gathered everyone and asked again.
After receiving the confirmed answer from everyone, Zheng Lizheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We all have to thank Wei Langjun. If Wei Langjun hadn't reminded that it would rain today in the morning, we would have been delayed."
Liu Aweng, who is very famous in the village, walked out and said, "The weather in the morning is so good, can Wei Langjun know that it will rain. Could it be that Wei Langjun is an immortal?"
"I hope I was wrong." Wei Renshi shook his head and said, "There are many rains and showers at this time, and it is coming quickly and sunny. I just want to make the sun quickly and rush and dry the wheat while it is sunny."
"I don't know how the wheat in the village next to me was harvested." Someone sighed below.
These neighboring villages have many intermarriages, and it can be said that they may have relatives when they are said to be. So some people are worried about the situation in the neighboring village.
Zheng Lizheng frowned and said, "We have the plunder made by Langjun Wei, so that we can finish the wheat in two days. Usually, we can take four or five days no matter what we say. Other villages must not have finished it."
After saying that, Zheng Li was looking up at the sky, thunder was rolling, but the raindrops had not yet fallen.
After a pause, he suddenly lowered his head and said, "Whose laborers have the strength? I have taken the scoundrels, let's go and help other villages!"
Many people immediately stood up.
"The young and strong people in our village have to talk about their wives from the neighboring village, and they can't get along with each other. Besides, many of them are sons-in-law from the neighboring village, so they have to go and help." Zheng Lizheng said: "Shitou, bring about ten people, take them to the village! The fourth brother, bring about ten people to the village! The seventh brother, take some people..."
After the separation of people, Zheng Lizheng said again: "If the rain comes, these villages will have to take food from the mouth of the Dragon Prince and catch it in the rain. Let's run faster and help as much as we can!"
"Wait!" Wei Renshi shouted, "I have some words to explain..."
