Yunxi is a small mountain town located in the southeast of Qianzhou. When Yang Bo followed Yuwen here, he was shocked. It was so poor here!
There is only one mill, one grocery store, one butcher shop, and one shop selling fabrics and clothes in the town. There are no other shops. The best building is the two-story town hall building.
The second day after Yang Bo and Yuwen arrived in the town, they followed a fellow villager's donkey cart to a remote mountain village. The two slept in the open air and searched for water sources all over the mountains and fields. Of course, Yuwen was still the main force, and Yang Bo just did odd jobs.
Yang Bo used to think that the southwest region has abundant rainfall and there should be no water shortage, but there are always some places without water sources.
For more than ten days in a row, Yang Bo and the two of them have helped four villages find water sources. The two of them almost never stopped to rush to the next mountain village.
By the time we arrived at the last Yinfang Village, half a month had passed.
As soon as Yang Bo and Yang Bo entered Yinfang Village, they were warmly welcomed by the villagers. The story of the two of them looking for water for everyone during this period has already spread, and every time they find water, they will leave thousands of people behind. Blocks were used to dig wells. Such a kind person was naturally received warmly.
The village chief Busuo brought out the best wine and meat at home and entertained Yang Bo and the two warmly.
On such occasions, Yuwen rarely spoke, so Yang Bo usually dealt with it. He chatted with the village chief Busuo, talking about the layout of the village, and wanted to find a well drilling site as soon as possible.
Busuo is from the Tujia ethnic group and does not speak Mandarin well, so there are some obstacles in communication between the two parties.
"Bran!" Busuo shouted loudly.
"Hey!" came the crisp response, and not long after, a girl in her early twenties walked in.
The woman was wearing blue Tujia clothes, with pink flowers on her right temple. Her face was slightly dark, but her appearance was extremely pretty. She was holding a large bowl with hare meat in her hand. She put the bowl on the table and looked towards Busuo.
As soon as Busuo saw his daughter, a proud smile appeared on his face, "This is my daughter Bran. She is studying in college in Guizhou. I don't speak Mandarin well. You can ask her!"
Yang Bo smiled, "Okay, it will be even better if you go to college!"
After saying that, Yang Bo looked at Bran, "I have some questions to ask you. Have there been any springs on your side of the mountain? Which side has more lush vegetation?"
Bran turned to stare at Yang Bo, then at Yuwen, looking at the two of them up and down, but then turned to look at Busuo, "Dad, I will definitely be able to help the village dig a good well in the future. They are all liars!"
"Bran! What nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you apologize to these two gentlemen quickly!" Fusuo slammed the table and scolded him sternly.
"Dad, I majored in geology. How can there be exploration without tools? Can they find water with a compass?" Bran still retorted.
Busuo stood up in anger, "Get out of here!"
Bran didn¡¯t even look back and walked straight out.
Yang Bo had no choice but to advise: "Don't be angry, the child is still young after all!"
Although Bran was prejudiced against them, other people in the village enthusiastically helped them show the way.
I don¡¯t know who Yuwen¡¯s teacher is. He and Yang Bo wandered around for two days and stopped in a valley, but they suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Yang Bo asked. According to his observation, every time Yuwen stayed for a long time, it usually meant that he had found a water source!
Yuwen inserted his wooden stick into the soil and said to Yang Bo, "dig a few times here!"
Yang Bo didn¡¯t pay attention and started digging with a shovel.
After digging a few times, there was no change in the soil. The slightly reddish soil is a characteristic here. Unlike the fertile black soil, the red soil is more saline and alkaline and the soil is poor.
"Click!"
The shovel suddenly dug up a stone. Yang Bo didn't pay attention. He changed his angle and soon dug out a stone the size of his fist!
Yang Bo was about to dig deeper when Yuwen suddenly picked up the stone and rubbed it with his hand, looking very strange.
Yang Bo was suddenly stunned. He stared at the ore that showed a light red diamond luster in the sun, "This is the ore!"
Yuwen nodded, "It should be a piece of ore!"
Yang Bo didn¡¯t understand the characteristics of this ore, so he didn¡¯t care and put it into his backpack.
A whole morning passed, but neither of them could find the water source, so they had to turn back.
At noon, Yang Bo ate at Busuo's house. He ate at Busuo's house for two days in a row. He killed a chicken for each meal. There was no chicken at noon.??There is an egg.
Bu Suo was a little embarrassed, "It's a simple meal and simple conditions. Don't take it off, two of you!"
Yang Bo waved his hand, "Mr. Busuo, you're welcome. We've been here for two days and still haven't harvested anything. We've disappointed everyone. It's us who should accompany you!"
"Don't be polite, you two. Yinfang Village has had no access to water since ancient times. Other villages have had spring water at least. Only Yinfang Village has always been in drought, and there is only a river five miles outside the village." Bu Suo said.
Yang Bo hesitated, "There is something I have always wanted to ask the village chief of Busuo. Why is Yinfang Village still built here when there is a river flowing five miles away?"
Busuo shook his head, "We have lived here for generations, and I don't know why our ancestors chose this place."
Yang Bo nodded slightly, "I have another question, where does the name Yinfang Village come from?"
"Oh, legend has it that a long time ago, every household in Yinfang Village made silver jewelry. At that time, the village was wealthy and hired people from outside to fetch water from outside the village. This may also be the reason why Yinfang Village chose this location!" spread the word.
Yang Bo looked towards Yuwen, he took out the light red ore and put it on the table.
"Light red silver ore? How do you have such a thing?"
An exclamation came over. It was Bran who walked in with a plate of wild vegetables. She stared at the ore on the table, her almond-shaped eyes widening!
Yang Bo was a little surprised, "Silver ore?"
Bran put down the plate, picked up the ore, looked at it, nodded and said, "Where did you find this?"
Yang Bo hesitated slightly. He looked at Yuwen and didn't say much.
The discovery of silver ore here means that there may be a silver mine nearby. Considering the name of Yinfang Village, you can probably understand the connection. However, the discovery of a silver mine is not a good thing for the village. You must know Silver mines cannot be mined privately. Even if they can be mined, do the villagers in Yinfang Village have the capital and technology?
Bran looked at Yang Bo, "Yinfang Village is too poor and needs silver mines to get rid of poverty!"
Yang Bo hesitated slightly, then shook his head firmly, "This is not a good thing for Yinfang Village!"
"Silver ore? Where is it?"
There was a loud shout, and as soon as the door became dark, a strong man walked in!
The man was over 1.8 meters tall, with a strong body, fancy clothes, and a smile on his ferocious face, but he looked even more evil!
