Chapter 175 Zhao Dong Joins
Wu Shan calmed down and said, "There is one more thing. Although Wuyan has taken 20% of the profits, everyone knows that Wuyan is studying. If he passes the examination, he will be a scholar. Burning charcoal and chopping wood are physical labor. He will not participate. Qingqing is even worse. We can't let a woman do heavy work with a bunch of masters here. So, in the future, they only need to teach us how to do it, and we don't have to do heavy work. Do you agree?"
What Wu Shan said was eloquent and full of righteousness.
He believed that he had won the approval of the villagers.
You must be kidding. There are so many people in the village and it would be a lot of work without him.
When someone saw the village chief raising his hand to strike the gong again, he immediately shouted in a mournful voice, "Village chief, you haven't finished speaking yet?"
Wu Shan paused his raised hand in mid-air, and scolded with a smile, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
when!
"Set off."
"and many more!"
When two voices were heard, everyone took a step forward and prepared to run, but at this moment the other foot was suddenly nailed to the spot by the word "wait".
"what happened?"
"Wuyan, do you have anything else to say?" Wu Shan asked.
Wen Wuyan was being stared at by the villagers, but he instead looked at Zhao Dong and Zhao Bei, who were at the end of the crowd.
Zhao Dong had no expression on his face, while the little brat Zhao Bei bared his teeth with an expression that said, "Brother, why are you looking at me?"
Wen Wuyan smiled at him, then looked at Wu Shan and said, "Village head, fellow villagers, I have an unwelcome request. Although Dong Ge and his friends are not from our village, they are righteous and generous. So, can you ask them if they want to join in the charcoal burning? Of course, everyone doesn't have to worry about whether they will learn the skills, because my family used to burn two kilns of charcoal, and I taught them to help with it, so they are also half-skilled. It's just that I didn't think of doing this business before, but now that I have done it, I hope to bring them with me."
When Wen Wuyan wanted to call Zhao Dong over, Qingqing had planned to keep them here to work, but there was really not much work to do at home at that time.
Although they can still make a living by selling pig intestines, now there is an opportunity for the whole village to make charcoal. As people from other villages, it is not easy for Zhao Dong and his friends to speak up, so he will do it.
After Wen Wuyan finished speaking, he moved his gaze from the village chief's face to everyone's faces. Seeing that no one seemed to be resisting, he suddenly felt relieved.
"This, this is inappropriate, right?" Before the people from Niutoushan Village said anything, Zhao Dong seemed a little serious.
"Well, there's nothing inappropriate about that. With one more person, we can burn more charcoal." Niu Yuzhu jumped out first.
"If you ask me, it's not impossible. Burning it is one thing, but then you have to go to the town to sell it. Zhao Dong and the others have experience in this." Wu Shan also spoke up.
There were also some people in the crowd who were close to Zhao Dong, and after thinking about it, they agreed.
"I have no opinion."
"I agree."
“If they want to join, they can join.”
"What's the point of your consent? They haven't even mentioned signing up." Someone else spoke up.
Wen Wuyan also took this opportunity to shout to Zhao Dong, who was a little far away from him, "Brother Dong, are you guys going to sign up? You and your brother are considered one family. If you sign up, one of you will have to come out to work every day."
Zhao Dong was a man of steel. Seeing that the villagers actually allowed them to join, he looked at Wen Wuyan who was looking at him expectantly.
"I do." The voice was excited and loud, like a vow.
"Well, since everyone has no objection, you guys should be included as well! Let's all get to work."
As Wu Shan finished his words, the crowd ran away like birds leaving their nests.
Gu Qingqing watched them run fast and said to Wen Wuyan in a hurry, "Hurry up and let them bring machetes."
"Everyone, remember to bring your axe." Wen Wuyan shouted.
"I know, I know!" everyone replied as they ran.
After everyone left, Zhao Dong walked up to Wu Shan and Wen Wuyan and said very seriously, "Thank you!"
"What are you thanking me for? No need to thank me. Just don't do anything to harm Niutoushan Village." Wu Shan said.
"Don't worry, Village Chief Wu, my brother and I are not ungrateful people."
"Okay, let's go too."
One person from each family took hoes and shovels, or carried pickaxes, and headed excitedly towards the back of the village.
As soon as they left the village, they saw a big black dog running towards Gu Qingqing and Wen Wuyan, with its ears flying in the air with joy.
Wang Wang Wang ~
"Hey, Dahei is growing really fast. He's almost a grown-up hound."
"Wu Yan, has it ever gone to the mountains to catch wild animals?"
"No, don't be fooled by his big size, he is very stupid." Wen Wuyan said bad things about Dahei, but the smile on his face made Gu Qingqing think that he had a resounding name.
Auntie smiles!
“That’s impossible. Didn’t you catch mice when you were a kid?” said someone who knows the situation.
"He, it was an accidental encounter."
Dahei suffered the disadvantage of not being able to speak. He knew that the male owner was talking about him, but he kept howling, but everyone around him just laughed.
Gu Qingqing ignored Wen Wuyan and the others' jokes and raised her hand to touch the dog's head. "Why did you run out here instead of staying at home?"
Dahei suddenly jumped out for a long distance, as if answering her question.
It wants to get some fresh air.
Most of the people around are familiar with Dahei. After all, who hasn’t touched him when they were working at Wuyan’s house?
Gu Qingqing ignored Dahei and asked Daxin who was running over, "Is there something wrong at home?"
Daxin shook his head, "Uncle and aunt, everything is fine at home. I just wanted to come and see what you were going to do. Dahei also came along."
Gu Qingqing understood the look in his eyes that wanted to go and see, so she put her arm on his shoulder skillfully and patted him, saying, "Let's go dig a kiln. If you have nothing to do, come and play with us."
"Yeah." Daxin was extremely happy to see that his aunt wanted to take him with her.
According to the original plan, after returning today, Gu Qingqing circled the drawings and gave them to Wen Wuyan, asking him to bring people to dig. As a result, everyone couldn't hold back and came here in a hurry today.
Digging a cave is a technical job, and the commander can only be Gu Qingqing.
No one present thought much about it and just assumed that Wen Wuyan had taught her, so she should dig the way he said.
But when they actually dug, they realized that so many people were involved. Wu Shan waved his arms to drive them away and said, "Others, don't just sit there. Go chop some firewood around."
"Qingqing, let me go up the mountain with you to chop some firewood. You come here. I can also tell everyone which ones are more suitable." Wen Wuyan said to Gu Qingqing.
"Well, let's go!"
After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she pointed at Dahei who was running wildly at the side and said, "You follow him!"
After a large group of people left, Gu Qingqing led the remaining people to clean the table, dig the kiln door, dig the fire mouth, and dig the soil.
Connect the cave dwelling to the crater and dig out the soil.
Dig the chimney, seal the chimney, and dig the soil.
Digging gutters, drilling holes in gutters, and digging out the soil.
Gu Qingqing and his men spent two days digging out three caves that were large enough for an adult to lie down in.
As for the paperwork for charcoal burning, it was completed on the same day thanks to the help of the Shen family.
Of course she wasn't the one who went there. It was Wen Wuyan who brought the village chief and Niu Zhanghe, and also delivered the dishes from Zhiweilou.
