"You are the proprietor of Shanghe Village?"

A young man in ragged clothes walked out across the street, but he didn't look like a villager because he looked too fair.

But today this matter still needs to be resolved.

"Exactly!" Tang Ping nodded and admitted, wanting to see what the other party had to say.

"You ordered the installation of this water tanker?" The other party's words were a bit aggressive.

"That's right!"

"There is only so much water in this river. You, Shanghe Village, have taken away all the water, but are you going to kill us, Xiahe Village?"

Following his words, the villagers in Xiahe Village became obviously excited.

Tang Ping just thought it was funny. These people were so instigative. No wonder when I read the text, those rebels only had to shout incomprehensible slogans, and some people would follow them to rebel.

There must be something hateful about this poor man. Although these villagers in Xiahe Village are short of water for irrigation, they do not want to solve this problem, but blame their Shanghe Village for this problem.

Before Tang Ping could say anything, Li Bai stood on one leg and asked loudly: "This waterwheel is not working now, which means that the current river water is the same whether there is a waterwheel or not. Why don't you get water to irrigate the fields?"

Just one sentence can make the person facing you stunned.

"This... this river... this water..." The young man who stood up immediately got stuck.

"You have pumped so much water out of this river, so naturally there is less water." A voice reminded.

"Yes, you have pumped so much water out of this river, so naturally there is less water!"

After the young man in charge finished speaking, he realized that it was Tang Ping who reminded him.

Tang Ping also didn't expect that the person opposite him would be so stupid and come to cause trouble for him.

However, Li Bai didn't care whether the other party followed what Tang Ping said. He just followed the other party's words and said: "So according to what you said, if we don't pump the water in this river, there will be more and more water?"

At this moment, the young man was blushing and speechless, and the villagers of Xiahe Village also reacted, as if this was not the case.

At this time, Tang Ping stood up and said: "In the end, you have to work hard for your own life. If you have time to come to my Shanghe Village to cause trouble, why don't you learn from Shanghe Village and build a waterwheel to pump water?"

"This waterwheel was built by myself and the villagers of Shanghe Village from scratch, with a plank and a nail."

As soon as Tang Ping said these words, Wang Tieniu and other villagers in Shanghe Village straightened their backs unconsciously.

The villagers in Xiahe Village lowered their heads in shame. One of the villagers said: "I...I can't build it!"

"Your Xiahe Village is not that far away from Shanghe Village. Even if you don't know how to do it, wouldn't you come and ask the Shanghe villagers to learn this thing?"

"You...are you willing to teach us?" Everyone in Xiahe Village raised their heads and looked at Tang Ping in surprise. Who knows how to do this kind of thing in this day and age?

The news that the imperial court wants to promote waterwheels has not yet spread. After all, it has only been a few days. The Ministry of Industry has posted a recruitment list for workers, and it is necessary for the new craftsmen to understand the construction method of waterwheels thoroughly before they can go to various places to lead the people to make new keels.

water wheel.

"Wang Tieniu, take two people to Xiahe Village and teach them how to build a waterwheel!"

"Yes, boss!"

These people were just miserable, and Tang Ping had no intention of embarrassing them. Sooner or later, the court would send people to popularize waterwheels and plows anyway, so it was better to teach them the lesson first.

These two villages look up and don't see each other, which makes people think worse. Now if Hecun becomes popular and goes to Hecun, sneaking up at night and destroying your water tanker, won't there be a lot of things happening?

Moreover, these people were obviously incited, so Tang Ping would not embarrass them.

As for the young man, Tang Ping raised his chin and signaled to Lao Cui: "Please come back to our place for tea."

Lao Cui went over to lift the man over, but the young man struggled hard, but to no avail.

"You...you...I'm here to help you reason!" he shouted forcefully to the villagers in Xiahe Village.

A middle-aged man from Xiahe Village came out and said with cupped hands: "Sir, this man came to Xiahe Village this morning. Seeing that we were worried about the severe drought, he told us that we were short of water here because Shanghe Village had pumped away the water.

, we were temporarily deceived by him, so we followed him."

Naturally, they had to sever the relationship at this time. Although Tang Ping agreed to help Xiahe Village build a water tanker for them, they had no choice but to regret it if they went back on it.

To put it bluntly, if these people are willing to follow, they might not mean to threaten Shanghe Village.

Some people are incited to come here, while others may not really be that stupid. People's hearts are complicated.

Tang Ping nodded. This guy didn't look like he was from Xiahe Village. It seemed that he was deliberately trying to cause trouble for him.

After taking the people back, the young man was frightened by the tough old Cui and Lao Du, and he did anything.

However, there is no difference between whether he did it or not. This guy was a down-and-out scholar outside Chang'an City. Someone found him and promised to give him fifty dollars, and the only requirement was that he come to Shanghe Village to cause such a scene.

As for who gave the money, he had no idea.

"Okay, let him go!"

Tang Ping waved his hand. It's normal for such a small character to not know anything. He just doesn't know who is targeting him.

And why is it against himself, this feeling that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, everyone will feel unhappy, but for the time being, Tang Ping has nothing to do.

But he is not afraid. He is not from the Tang Dynasty. No matter what the other party wants to do against him, as long as he can save his own life, he will be fine.

Now that Pei Min is by his side, the security level has been raised a lot.

And they all said that today is a day for rest in Shanghe Village. After settling the matters in Xiahe Village, it’s time for the monthly dinner party.

According to Tang Ping's rules, everyone would cook something delicious on this day, then bring their own tables and chairs to have a dinner on the dam outside their yard.

Since there is no harvest in the fields yet, Tang Ping provides everyone with food, which makes the people of Shanghe Village even more grateful to Tang Ping.

Pei Min and Li Bai looked at the busy villagers of Shanghe Village. The two of them passed by many villages along the way, but there was no one like Shanghe Village.

Just the spontaneous happy smile on everyone's face is almost something I've never seen before.

"Uncle, come and sit down quickly!" Tang Ping patted the seat next to him: "Do you want spicy food? Today we have barbecue!"
