Chapter 43 Fishing
Chapter 43 Fishing
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal. They hadn’t felt so satisfied with a meal in a long, long time. Perhaps it could be said that they had never felt so satisfied with a meal before.
In the past, even if there was food, people would still plan how they ate. They did not dare to fill their stomachs for fear that they would run out of food later.
When everyone was full and leaving, each person was given an unwrapped lollipop, which they had to eat since it had already been unwrapped.
Although they didn’t understand why Mo Beichen made such arrangements, they followed orders and did their job.
The prepared toys were also distributed to the children, allowing them to take them home and play. It was too hot at noon, so they should not run around outside, as there was no way to cure heatstroke.
The children were very happy to eat the sweet lollipops. They danced with joy on the way home. Many of them had not eaten anything sweet even during the Chinese New Year!
Yang Muxi woke up from his nap and passed the statistical table he had made earlier to Mo Beichen. Mo Beichen asked his colleagues to take a few sheets to the team leader and let the villagers do the counting themselves.
They are here to solve problems, but they cannot take on too much and then do nothing for the village.
Mo Beichen, “Sister Xi, I have arranged for someone to handle it.”
Yang Muxi, “I want to donate a primary school to the production team so that all children can go to school, learn cultural knowledge, and become a useful person instead of becoming an illiterate person.”
“With my own money.”
It doesn’t cost much to build an ordinary primary school, not to mention that she is very rich. Not to mention one primary school, even a hundred or a thousand would be enough. But now she can only take it slowly.
Mo Beichen, “Sister Xi, this matter has nothing to do with you, just use mine!”
Yang Muxi, “Please choose an address first, and I will send you the construction materials in two days.”
Afterwards, Yang Muxi searched the Internet for primary school styles and found a few ordinary rural school styles. After printing them out, he sent them to Mo Beichen.
“Since we are going to build a school, let’s build it well so that it can be used for fifty or even a hundred years, and then we won’t have to bother rebuilding it later.”
“I would like to thank Sister Xi on behalf of my future students.”
As if seeing Mo Beichen’s expression, Yang Muxi couldn’t help laughing. He was so cute. It was great to have an obedient and on-the-same-moment brother.
She felt that her broken heart was about to be healed.
There happened to be a brick factory near the gas station, but Yang Muxi didn’t know the phone number of the owner of the brick factory. He asked several people before he found out. Then he called the owner directly and bought all the existing bricks in the factory.
Anyway, we will build other primary schools later, so it doesn’t matter if we buy a little more.
Afterwards, I asked the boss to introduce me to the owners of the sand field and cement factory, and got all the materials needed to build the house.
In the evening, Yang Muxi drove the van to the riverside. She laid out the fishing gear and waited until dark, then notified Mo Beichen, “Brother, notify me after dark, and I’ll send you river water.”
“Ok.”
Yang Mu hoped to catch a fish on the hook, so he threw the fishing line into the river. There were fishermen on both sides of the river, and some of them had been fishing for a whole day and were unwilling to go back.
Yang Muxi’s location was a bit remote, and there was something blocking her nearby, so others couldn’t see her at the first time. Otherwise, it would be really dangerous for a young girl like her to go fishing outside at night.
But when she thought about the time and space when Mo Beichen was there, when everyone was waiting for water, she felt that she was not afraid of anything anymore.
Although doing such a thing would not bring any benefit to herself, it would bring her spiritual salvation. Mo Beichen took the basket and called the leader, and the two of them went out to find a secluded place suitable for putting the basket. With water tonight, everyone could plant crops tomorrow.
After two months everyone had enough to eat and their help was no longer needed.
There were a lot of things in the canteen, and the others were watching inside, fearing that the villagers would come with bad intentions to steal things. The remaining veterans’ hometowns were relatively far away, and they had not arrived here yet, so they did not have enough manpower.
Once they arrive, half of them can be assigned to the next production team to replicate the work here.
Mo Beichen found a dead tree in the field. The tree was several dozen centimeters thick and should be able to withstand the impact, so Mo Beichen tied the basket directly several dozen centimeters above the ground.
After it got dark, Mo Beichen informed Yang Muxi that it was already dark here and they could operate.
It was pitch black outside, and you couldn’t see your hand in front of you. No one would see anything. Besides, they had their own people patrolling the village, so they knew about any movement in the village.
After receiving the letter, Yang Muxi put the trash can into the fishing net, and then put the fishing net into the water. After a few minutes, he brought it up and confirmed with Mo Beichen, “Is there water?”
“Yes.” Mo Beichen replied quickly.
“I’ll give you seeds and fertilizer tomorrow. From now on, I’ll focus on delivering water, so I won’t chat with you anymore.”
Yang Muxi took the fishing net and found a place with lush aquatic plants. He put the fishing net into the water and covered it tightly with the aquatic plants. Then he sat on a small stool and played with his mobile phone.
Her purpose was not fishing, but the river water, so naturally she would not stare at the fish float in the water.
Yang Muxi sent a message to the owner of the seed store, asking him to send over all the fertilizers, pesticides and seeds suitable for planting this month.
Seeing the water flowing into the rice fields, Mo Beichen and his leader looked at each other and couldn’t help laughing. As long as there is water, there is hope, and soon everyone will be able to get out of the predicament.
They will release water upstream of the river next time, so that the villages near the river will have water, but there are no seeds, so they still have to deliver seeds.
I don’t know how much time had passed, but suddenly I heard footsteps. Yang Muxi was startled and hurriedly stood up to look around. I saw a tall figure walking towards me under the moonlight.
Yang Muxi was a little nervous and leaned back against the wall by the river.
The flashlight on the phone shone in her direction, and then Cheng Xinghan’s voice rang out, “Sister Xi, are you here? This fishing tackle looks like it’s mine.”
“You’re trying to scare me to death. What are you doing here in the middle of the night?” Yang Muxi patted his chest in fear. “Don’t you know to send me a WeChat message in advance to inform me?”
“I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I was afraid it would be dangerous for you to fish alone at night.” Cheng Xinghan came down from above and walked to Yang Muxi’s side. “Did you catch any fish?”
“Not yet.” Yang Muxi said unhappily.
Anyone who encounters something like this late at night would be scared, right?
Cheng Xinghan closed the tackle box, sat on it, and reeled in the fishing line. “Sister Xi, didn’t you say you knew how to fish? You can’t even adjust the length of the fishing line, how can you fish?”
“Do you want to choose more?” Yang Muxi blinked.
“The depths of rivers and streams are different, so of course we need to adjust it. If the water is shallow, we should adjust it shorter, and if the water is deep, we should adjust it longer.”
Yang Muxi nodded perfunctorily, “I see. Thank you for your advice.”
