Chapter 1089 Carrying Guano Back
After finishing their meal, Gui Ge'er and his gang continued to dig the hole.
Perhaps because of years of accumulation, the bottom is hard and not as easy to dig out as fresh bird droppings.
But as long as you dig hard, you will eventually reach the bottom of the pit.
As they were digging, Gui Ge'er exclaimed, "Brother Shan, we've reached the bottom. Come and see."
Sun Shan didn't care about the softness of the bird droppings on the ground. He ran up as fast as he could and saw the big pit dug by Gui Ge'er and his gang. He really saw the bottom.
Sun Shan took a hemp rope, tied a stone to it, and placed it vertically at the bottom.
After determining the depth, pull up the hemp rope and measure it with a ruler.
There was no other way. There was no long ruler in Da Niao Village, only a short ruler. Sun Shan could only put a hemp rope into the pit, pull it out, and measure it bit by bit with a ruler.
Sun Shan calculated that the depth was about 6 meters.
This, this depth is so deep.
Sun Shan estimated the length and width of the pit. Forgive him for his lack of experience, he could not tell how big it was, so he could only arrange for someone to measure it specifically.
The pit dug this time is several meters away from the edge, so this depth can only be used as a reference and the specific average depth cannot be calculated.
It’s a pity that there are no detection tools, otherwise we would have known it clearly and wouldn’t have had to dig so hard.
Gui Ge'er and his gang, who were digging a small manure pit in the bird droppings pit, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that their mission was accomplished.
I never expected that one day I would find myself digging bird droppings in the deep mountains and forests.
If you want to dig, dig your own toilet.
Gui Ge'er asked, "Brother Shan, what should we do next?"
Brother Shan only asked them to dig a hole, and the task was completed when they reached the bottom. So what was the next step?
After working so hard to dig up so much bird droppings, do you want to take them back?
As soon as Gui Ge'er thought of this, Sun Shan said, "Take some guano back with you in sacks. Take back guano of different depths."
Now that we have confirmed that this is a large bird droppings pit, the next step is to figure out how to make it fertilizer for the land.
Used to make chemical products, unfortunately the conditions here are not good enough to separate the different components and make different product raw materials.
Sun Shan could only turn the bird droppings into "primitive fertilizer" so that the people could harvest more rice from their fields.
Gui Ge'er always obeyed Sun Shan's instructions. Without saying a word, he followed the men and started busying themselves with filling the guano of different depths.
Sun Dingnan also made marks to clearly identify the different depths of bird droppings.
The guards were very curious about why Sun Shan wanted to pack the bird droppings and why he wanted to take them back.
I think what the noble man did was really nonsensical. He even wanted to take such smelly bird droppings back home. What was the reason for that?
The lively San Yazi asked, "Master, what do you want the bird droppings for? Are you going to use them to dam the fields like the village chief?"
Everyone from 80 years old to babbling babies knows that the village chief uses bird droppings to dam the fields.
Sanyazi is a talkative person who always likes to talk, so he naturally knows the past of the village chief.
Dayazi said nervously, "Master, you must not dam the fields, or the seedlings will be burned."
I heard from my grandfather that Mr. Sun is a scholar, his family is very rich, and he must have a lot of land.
If the master suddenly has an idea and wants to dam the fields like my grandfather did, this will result in a complete loss of harvest, which is absolutely not allowed.
The master was a good man. He was kind to them and didn't scold them. More importantly, he treated them to rice balls with bacon and gave them 20 copper coins as wages. Such a good master should be rewarded.
Sun Shan touched Dayazi's head, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not using it to dam the fields. As for its use, you will know when you grow up. You are still young now, and you won't understand even if I tell you."
If this is the case again, why do adults always say that their little kids don’t understand?
They understand everything, but adults always like to be mysterious and don't like to tell the truth.
Seeing the guards hanging their heads and looking listless, Sun Shan said with a smile, "It's getting late. We should go back. We can't stay here too long, or it will get dark and the road will be difficult to walk on."
The journey here took a lot of time, and digging the pit took even more time, so we had to go back quickly.
The little boy who was selling sand geese knew the situation in the forest best. He nodded and said, "Master is right. We should leave quickly. If the sun sets, we can only walk in the dark. It is very dangerous to walk in the dark."
So Gui Ge'er and his gang carried several sacks of bird droppings back to the village.
Wang Jiaxing's eyes rolled around and his brain was working fast.
It’s really strange, why did Lord Sun carry bird droppings back?
Wang Jiaxing walked and thought, but he couldn't figure it out, so he quietly ran to Sun Shan.
He asked in a low voice: "Master, tell me quickly, what are these bird droppings for? I am not a little kid anymore."
Wang Jiaxing didn't buy the clumsy excuse of "the kid is still young".
Since he couldn't think of anything to do, he could only ask. If Sun Shan didn't tell him, he would keep pestering him. When he got tired of pestering, Sun Shan would tell him.
To be honest, I am quite thick-skinned. Perhaps it is because of this that I was chosen by my uncle to be an undercover agent.
Sun Shan waved his hand and said calmly, "If you are not Xiaoyazi, then what are you? Are you married? Have you performed the ceremony of coming of age?"
First of all, Wang Jiaxing is still an "older bachelor".
As for why he has not yet married, according to housekeeper Wang, Wang Jiaxing originally had a fiancée and was planning to get married, but just after the engagement ceremony, his fiancée died of illness.
Look, Wang Jiaxing has a reputation of being a bit of a wife-killer.
Because he is a man and from the Wang family of Yuanlu, the topic of "wife-killing" is spread in a small circle, and there are quite a lot of girls who want to marry Wang Jiaxing.
His fiancée had just died the year before, so Wang Jiaxing's marriage was delayed.
Mrs. Wang should be anxious to find a girl for her son now.
As for when it will be found, it depends on God's will.
Secondly, Wang Jiaxing was actually still a few months away from turning 20, so he had not performed the coming-of-age ceremony.
Although he is introduced as 20 years old, he is actually not even 19 years old yet, so he is still considered a "minor" at the moment.
So Sun Shan classified Wang Jiaxing as a member of the "Ya Zi Team".
The same reason was used to send Wang Jiaxing away.
Hearing Sun Shan's question, Wang Jiaxing pounded his chest in anger, and then looked at the guards of different heights and sizes.
I'm actually on the same team with them? This is so insulting!
Wang Jiaxing wanted to continue to refute.
Sun Shan waved his hand again and said unhappily, "Don't ask. You will know the answer in a few days. Save your energy and climb up."
Because we went downhill to the guano pit, and now we are going up, we have to climb.
It's hard for Guiger and others, as they not only have to climb, but also carry.
Go back and increase the food allowance, and ask the village chief to make more bacon so that everyone can eat it to their heart's content.
Seeing that Sun Shan really didn't want to say anything, Wang Jiaxing had no choice but to shut up.
The master is an official after all. Although he is approachable, if you cause trouble to him, will he get angry?
Some people are always smiling, but if they get angry, the earth will shake.
Wang Jiaxing wisely shut up and climbed the hill silently.
