I traveled through time, this is unscientific

Chapter 166 Timber

166 Wood

The villagers were too embarrassed to say, "Erdan, what are you doing here to cause trouble?"

Zhou Xiaozhou also knew the person who was speaking. He was Lin Dayou's father, Old Man Lin. Zhou Xiaozhou had seen him several times at Old Wu's house, always coming to attend meetings.

He should be the person with real power in the village.

Erdan was unhappy about being scolded by Grandpa Lin and retorted: "This is what Teacher Ge wanted."

Well, now that things have come to this, Zhou Xiaozhou still has to make amends.

Zhou Xiaozhou held Chen Dahao's hand, stopping him from telling the truth, and stepped forward to deceive him.

"Hey, Grandpa Lin, Erdan is right. We asked the kids to find this. Someone sent us a basket of poisonous mushrooms yesterday."

As soon as these words came out, the villagers' faces changed. This poisonous mushroom can kill people.

Seeing that his words had worked, Zhou Xiaozhou continued to deceive: "To be honest, I feel sorry for these children. They really can't find anything to exchange, so I asked them to help pick up some firewood. The black ones have tree oil in them, so they are easier to burn."

This makes sense. The villagers have much more experience in burning firewood than Zhou Xiaozhou.

Ge Meili was ecstatic, the big boat was great! It was ready.

Then Zhou Xiaozhou pointed to the open space next to the school and said, "We are thinking of putting a small stove there to boil some hot water. It's not a good idea to always bring cold water from home. Sometimes we still want to drink something hot."

The logic is perfect, at least that's what Zhou Xiaozhou himself thinks.

As for agarwood, let alone how valuable it is, the main thing is that Zhou Xiaozhou is not sure whether the thing in Erdan's hand is the agarwood that netizens are talking about.

Considering that the villagers are now looking for her to exchange for food, if they really knew that this is a very precious spice, wouldn't they ask for a sky-high price?

Or how about a country exchange, based on the market conditions back home or here?

The key point is whether people here know that this thing is a good thing or not.

Sometimes! Zhou Xiaozhou didn't want to be a bad guy, but life forced you to think more.

If Zhou Xiaozhou could really make a lot of money by being a middleman, then she wouldn't mind giving the villagers more compensation in the future.

But now, she has been making unilateral efforts and has not received any results from the fruits and stones she has harvested.

In the end, it was Lao Zhou who took on everything, and Zhou Xiaozhou was grateful to Lao Zhou again in his heart.

"It should have been done a long time ago. I was thinking about building two more rooms for you, but I didn't have the time, did I?" Li Jinniu grinned.

Since Zhou Xiaozhou can make requests to the village, it means that exchanging food is possible!

"That's great!" Zhou Xiaozhou replied with a smile.

Erdan had just been scolded, and he understood that this black branch was worthless, but he still held out a little hope.

He was a little embarrassed, but he still mustered up the courage to ask: "Master Zhou, can I still exchange this branch for food?"

"Why aren't you listening clearly, little brat?" Li Jinniu slapped Erdan in the face, and Erdan was slapped far away.

However, the child did not cover his face, but just looked like he was about to cry, which shows that Uncle Taurus used clever force.

Zhou Xiaozhou quickly explained: "It's not okay to hit students! Erdan, if you can change it, go find Teacher Ge."

The child was happy now, and happily left the adults' circle with Ge Meili, with a group of little followers following behind.

But as he left, he still muttered, "It's not good for people to ask for clarification!"

Oh, it looks like you have some complaints.

Zhou Xiaozhou quietly stood behind Chen Dahe.

She thought she was being very discreet, but someone was staring at her!

Chen Dahao stood in front of Zhou Xiaozhou again and continued the topic that they had not finished just now.

"Village Chief Wu, is the drought in the village just in the creeks? Is there still water in the wells that the villagers usually use for drinking?"

A group of old men looked at each other in bewilderment. They had been busy grabbing water from the creek to irrigate the wheat fields all morning. No one paid attention to the well water issue.

"There is water, but not much." Lin Dayou responded.

"The child's mother went to fetch water this morning and found that the water in the well was not as much as before, and it was a long way down."

Zhou Xiaozhou said! How could it be that only the creek was dry? If there was a real water shortage, then the entire area would be short of water!

Old Wu sighed heavily: "Didn't we say that we are not allowed to draw water from the well to irrigate the fields? Who is so foolish as to do such a ridiculous thing? This is forcing the whole village to die!"

Seeing Old Wu getting angry, everyone was shocked and quickly said, "Village Chief, no one is going. This is the rule set by the village. This person will not go to the field if he wants to drink well water."

"Maybe someone went to steal water in the middle of the night."

"How dare I do that! The well is far from the ground! I will be exhausted to death!"

Chen Dahe ignored the villagers' commotion and continued to ask, "Is there only one well in the village?"

This time, it was Li Jinniu who answered first: "There are two wells on this side of Huludi, one on the side of my home, and there is another old well on the back hill, but it's abandoned and no one goes there."

"Then the well water in the village should be running low." Chen Dahe continued to analyze, "Otherwise, Village Chief Wu, please send someone to check. Generally speaking, if the weather continues to be dry and there is no rain, the groundwater level will continue to drop. However, under normal circumstances, it will rise and fall within a certain range. I just want to know whether the water level drop this time is within the normal range."

After listening to Chen Dahe's rambling speech, the villagers looked stunned. Zhou Xiaozhou knew at a glance that they didn't understand.

She, the translator, had to help: "That's right, Village Chief Wu, why don't you send someone to check if the water in the village wells is low. Is it not noticeably low, like usual, so the water level may rise in a couple of days, or is it much low, so it's hard to see why? If it's much low, then there's something wrong with the groundwater."

Old Wu understood what was said, and so did the villagers.

But the look on his face became more serious.

"Are there any of you who help your wife fetch water? Go to the well and see if this is what Mr. Chen said."

Zhou Xiaozhou was very surprised. It was not Old Wu who was arranging people, but Chen Dashan who was standing next to him who was arranging people to check it out.

Where is Wu Wen? Will the village chief be replaced?

Seeing that the other side had finished the arrangements, Chen Dahe continued to talk about the main event.

"Village Chief Wu, we still have a while before they come back. Let's talk about the food exchange in the village! The summer grain in the village is not good right now. I wonder what you will exchange for the grain we give you?"

Zhou Xiaozhou looked up at Chen Dahe and said, "Brother, why don't you follow the routine?"

We don't want to exchange minerals? We don't want to exchange agarwood?
