The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

   Chapter 121 122 Reclaiming wasteland

   After hearing this, the old man thought to himself: Miss Li's appearance doesn't seem like she's talking about it, but she has never seen the terraced fields with her own eyes.

  Li Yu saw the hesitant look of the old man Hu, and said to him: "Old man, discuss it with everyone. If you decide to open terraced fields, come to my house and find me."

   "Miss Li, can you stay in the village for a while, and I'll get back to you when I discuss it with everyone." Old man Hu asked.

  Li Yu nodded, "Alright, let's discuss it! I'll take a look around here."

  Erya lifted the food box to the mountain, "Girl, are you hungry?"

  Li Yu nodded, "I'm a little hungry, are you hungry? Let's eat first when we're hungry."

   Erya smiled, "I'm a little hungry, I think they probably didn't know we were going to have lunch, so they brought up the food box."

  Erya opened the food box and the two ate the dry food prepared by Aunt He, including pancakes with pickles, and pumpkin steamed buns. The food box was full.

Old Man Hu walked over to the villagers who were waiting and told them what Li Yu said, looked at them and asked, "Miss Li has already thought of a way for us, and she also said that it will be successful if you are not completely sure. What is your plan in your heart? Say it and listen."

  There was a lot of talk, and most of them said, "Just give it a try! Originally, a dead horse became a living horse doctor, but it took some effort. If you can succeed, you don't have to leave your hometown."

   Some are reluctant to waste their efforts, "If you are busy with work in vain, and you will be upset, it is better to sleep at home and feel comfortable."

  Old man Hu looked at it and found that most of the villagers were willing to try it, but the few households who usually like to cheat and play tricks.

Old Man Hu looked at them and said earnestly: "The opportunity is right in front of us, we in Hujia Village can't just sneak around like this, live a full and hungry life, make future generations look down on us, and have no face to see our ancestors when we die. , I decided to learn to open terraces with Miss Li, and those who agreed stood on my left and those who disagreed stood on my right."

  More than 20 households stood on the left, and only three households stood on the right. Old Man Hu looked at the men from the three households and said, "Hu Chun, your brothers are not planning to open land, right?"

  Hu Chun cupped his hands, "Uncle, we plan to go to Tongzhou City to see and make a living there."

  The old man Hu nodded, "Okay, since you've made up your mind, I won't leave you. If you can't get along, remember to come back."

   "Yes, uncle, let's go." The three Hu Chun brothers turned and walked down the mountain to the village.

  The old man Hu said to the more than 20 households who stayed behind: "You have all made up your mind and don't complain about Miss Li even if you don't open it, I will tell Miss Li."

   Everyone responded in unison: "Uncle, don't worry, we'll spend some effort thinking about the big deal."

  The old man Hu looked at them and nodded in relief, turned and walked towards Li Yu.

  Li Yu looked at Old Man Hu and waited for him to answer. Old Man Hu bowed to Li Yu and said, "Miss Li, we are willing to try and we will never blame you even if we fail."

Li Yu looked at the old man Hu and said, "Okay, then let's open up the hill that you left uncultivated first, and choose a place with a gentle **** to build it. After choosing, follow the terrain, just like the ladder you dug. The road is the same, going down layer by layer from top to bottom."

  Old man Hu saw that Li Yu immediately made arrangements and became confident, "Okay, let's go down here, grab a **** and a guy and go to the top of the mountain to start."

"Okay." Li Yu replied with a smile, and took Erya and the old man Hu down the mountain. When the villagers brought their hoes and machetes and walked towards the barren hill, the men from Hujia Village also came. Now, as long as you can work, both adults and children will come to the hills.

   After seeing Li Yu's red face, the women bowed and saluted, turned around and ran towards the barren hills. Everyone took hoes, sickles, and machetes to work in full swing.

  Li Yu and Old Man Hu walked to the hill and looked around. Old Man Hu pointed to the hill in front of him, "Miss Li, these used to be sorghum and beans, and it took only two years for them to be abandoned."

   Li Yu said with a smile: "If you all open up these lands, are you still worried that everyone will not have food?"

  Old man Hu began to worry again after hearing this, "Girl, you need water to grow rice or wheat. After the river changes, crops in our neighborhood will not be able to survive without water!"

  Li Yu pointed to the mountain with the ditch and smiled: "You don't have to worry, as long as you bring the water from the ditch, the irrigation problem will be solved."

   After hearing this, the old man Hu looked at the big mountain with the dark ditch and the hill in front of him. He looked at Li Yu in puzzlement and wondered how the water could be drawn from that mountain to this mountain. "Do you mean to open up that ditch? Even if the ditch is opened, the water will only flow downwards!"

Li Yu smiled and said, "You don't need to open up the ditch, you can let someone cut some bamboo or big trees, it's still the bamboo! After you cut through the bamboo, build a water bridge to lead the water here, and find one on the top of the mountain. Dig a pond in the low-lying area to store the water, and you can also connect the water to the village, and it will be much more convenient for you to drink water in the future.”

   After listening to this, the old man thought about it for a while, and then he understood the mystery. He bowed to Li Yu's head happily, and Li Yu quickly turned sideways to avoid it, "Old man, I can't do it..."

  The old man Hu wiped his face and said solemnly to Li Yu: "Miss Li, you are the benefactor of my Hu clan. In the future, wherever it is useful to my Hu clan, you will go through fire and water."

  Li Yu blushed and said, "Old man, you are serious. I just know a few things more than you. Besides, I just offered a way to talk about it. You have to do it yourself."

Old Man Hu looked at Li Yu and said ashamedly, "Girl, you changed the fate of my Hu clan with just one word, or after we did something wrong to you. If you hadn't asked me that day, would the descendants be allowed to steal it too? , the little old man will continue to be confused, Miss Li, thank you!"

  Li Yu blushed and remembered that he just couldn't stand them at that time, all of them were tall and big, but they did the kind of sneaky things and said a few more words. Unexpectedly, it made old man Hu wake up, alas! It's a good thing to do!

The number 100 people worked **** the slope, cut down the bushes and uprooted them, and set the vines and weeds ablaze on the slope. It didn't take long for the first floor to be opened. Li Yu asked them to build a ridge with stones and clay, and then continued to build the second floor.

   After finishing the first floor, everyone understood that the more he did, the easier it was. Li Yu stayed in Hujia Village until the end of Shen Shimo, and then said goodbye to the villagers of Hujia Village and went home.
