Chapter 103 is thriving
After more than a month of development, Longquan Village is now well-behaved, thriving everywhere and full of vitality.
The spring plowing has been completed, but there are still no idle people in the village. After doing farm work, you can do odd jobs in the coal mountains or brick kilns, and you can earn a few cents a day. Although it doesn’t seem much, it can’t stand the accumulation of time. For ordinary people in this era, isn’t the money saved in this way?
The women and elderly people at home are not idle. In addition to doing housework, there are also some small family workshops that can also earn some extra money to supplement the household income.
In the three villages, Longquan Village continues its original toothpaste and toothbrush business, which has been promoted in Luoyang; in Ankang Village, it mainly processes cooked food and then sells it to the construction site of Luoyang Ancient City or Xindu.
Anyway, under the leadership of the master craftsman Yuwen Kai, these cooked food products are very popular. They are cheap and delicious. The civil servants on the construction site can also take turns to taste them to satisfy their cravings. The key is that they are really cheap.
In Wuwei Village, most of the family members have not been taken over, the soldiers work for half a day and then practice for half a day. They also have wages for work, and the biggest difference from the system of the government is that these soldiers have money to get every month.
At the beginning, the farmers who came here with confusion and anxiety had long been at ease. Apart from occasionally thinking about their hometown, they had already regarded this place as a new home.
Li Feng rode his horse back to Longquan Village in the rising sun. Looking at the small village with smoke curling in cooking, he felt very at ease.
On the field outside the village, a group of women and children carrying baskets greeted Li Feng from a distance when they saw Li Feng. Who doesn’t respect those who can bring them good days?
Li Feng jumped off the horse and saw that the women were filled with wild vegetables in their baskets, but he still felt the lack of vegetables in this era.
He had already entrusted Hu Shang Mu Guiying to get more vegetable seeds. However, because the journey was too far, it was probably fast for Mu Guiying to come back in autumn.
After asking, I realized that these wild vegetables were not eaten by humans. They were chopped and mixed with some water to feed the chickens.
In recent days, the focus of discussion among every household is the little chicks that broke out.
Originally, the women thought that without an old hen, how could the chicks hatch? However, according to Dalang's method, the chicks hatched on the kang, and they really hatched them, and they still jumped around happily.
On the kang, there are more duck eggs and goose eggs that continue to hatch. Because it takes a long time, it has not broken its shell yet. However, with the confidence that hatching chicks brings them, ducks and gooses can definitely hatch.
Therefore, they all had almost blind worship of this Feng Gongzi who could create life.
As he walked and chatted, Li Feng could feel the atmosphere of tranquility and vitality, which was very good.
When I returned to my own home, my grandmother had already brought Nunu back from Luoyang City and was playing five animal play in the yard.
In addition to the little Nunu who was sobbing in his mouth and imitating the tiger's scream, Li Feng also unexpectedly discovered Changsun Wuyou, and there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his little forehead.
"Husband, you are back!" The young lady Changsun greeted her happily.
Li Feng blinked and was a little surprised. After asking, he found out that he was studying in the village school with Nu Nu.
According to Changsun Wuyou, after his father adopted his husband's method, the project progress really improved rapidly, so when he was happy, he agreed to her request to come here to study.
Then study hard. Li Feng was about to touch her little head and encourage her, but when he heard the side coughing lightly, he realized that Changsun Wuji was also practicing swords there.
Because of his role as a qualified brother, Li Feng didn't know him well. After breakfast, he sent Nunu and the others to school and went to school for a walk.
This school is amazing. It is the best building in the village and the hope of all villagers. Most villagers are so satisfied with their current life, and a large part of it falls on this school.
Because for ordinary villagers like them, it is impossible to even dream of entering the school!
At present, Longquan Village and Ankang Village each have a school, and Master Meng is also appointed by Fang Xuanling and others. In addition, Yuan Tiangang and others will also help and teach the two disciplines of arithmetic and nature.
As for Wuwei Village, the school will be opened after the family members have moved here one after another.
Li Feng led one with one hand, and the two little girls each carried a small cloth bag, which seemed quite like that.
Along the way, you can see many little babies walking towards the school with small bags on their backs. Basically, no parents followed them.
When I saw a few, the parents sent them out of the gate, and told me to study hard and not be naughty, and then I went home to work hard.
When Li Feng entered the school, the two little girls ran to their seats. At their current age, of course they were sitting in the first row.
Not enough, there was already a little guy in the first row seat, shaking his little head, muttering something.
Li Feng went up to listen. Li Chunfeng was reciting the formula for multiplication of ninety-nine.
"Da Lang!" Fang Xuanling greeted Li Feng very kindly. At first, he was a little resistant to being a village tutor. After all, a well-educated man with lofty ambitions and did not want to teach all his life.
A person who was preparing to take the Jinshi exam and coaxed a group of village children, and felt that it was really useless.
However, after reading the two textbooks of arithmetic and nature, Fang Xuanling became interested because there were many things in it, even as a scholar, it was the first time he had seen them.
Of course, he admires the book editor, Mr. Feng, even more: it turns out that others are not only very talented in poetry and prose, but also have extensive knowledge. Fang Xuanling, who has always believed that he is well-versed in ancient and modern times, has to admit that he is ashamed of himself.
After chatting for a few words and asking about the situation in the school, Fang Xuanling praised Li Chunfeng, Nu Nu and Changsun Wuyou.
Look at Li Chunfeng and Wuyou Nunu, Li Feng said in his heart: This is a perfect child prodigy class.
Although the children in other villages have a poor foundation, they all know how to work hard.
As he was talking, he pointed to a letter posted on the wall with his finger. When Li Feng looked at it, he couldn't help feeling ashamed. It was the one given to Niu Er that copied Mr. Yan's "I don't know how to study hard early, but I regretted studying too late after my old age."
So I took the excuse to take a walk and went around several other places, such as the Coal Mountain and the Kiln Factory, etc., and focused on visiting the newly joined civilians. After that, they were almost integrated. I guess their family members would be able to settle down completely here after they were taken.
When he returned to Wuwei Village, Li Jing and Li Bubai returned from the field training with their soldiers. The team was neatly arranged and showed a bit of majestic appearance.
And it seems that the number of female soldiers led by Li Bubai has increased a lot, and it seems that they have exceeded 100 people.
However, what surprised Li Feng was that behind the team, there was a lame man who was leaning on crutches and also marched hard with him.
Although this person has worked very hard, he is not good at doing things after all, so he still falls in the end.
Seeing that his coarse cloth clothes and pants were soaked in sweat, Qiao Shouxin felt a little embarrassed and helpless: "Ge Laosi, you should go to the kiln factory to work and support the family." Anyway, I didn't have the nerve to say that he was dragging him down.
"Qiao Lizheng, I have a skill that can gain a foothold in the army!" The person named Ge Laosi had a slightly ferocious face.
Li Feng went up to ask, and found out that the three of them were all recruited to the large construction site in Xindu, Luoyang. Both brothers were dead and he had one leg broken. The guy hated him and said he would join the army no matter what, and vowed to take revenge.
It's a man, but your current physical condition is really not suitable? Li Feng was also a little embarrassed: "What are your abilities?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Ge Laosi's face, but it was soon replaced by Jianjian. He put his dirty fingers into his mouth and whistled. Soon, a few birds flapped their wings and then fell on Ge Laosi's shoulders. A few of them were also affectionately poking Ge Laosi's dirty face with their sharp mouths.
"This person can raise pigeons, but he doesn't have two taels of meat." Xie Yingdeng muttered.
"Who dares to eat someone's flying slave? I'll fight him to the death." Ge Laosi is not afraid of Xiao Kezi. Although he can't beat others, he is not afraid of death now. What else can he be afraid of?
