After saying that, Ye Chang turned around and left without any hesitation, as if he didn't come here to buy bamboo. </p> "Respected guests, please go slowly!" Tan Qinshou said attentively. </p> "Wait a minute!" Ye Mei couldn't bear it any longer, jumped out and shouted: "What on earth is going on?" </p> But Ye Chang didn't stop and walked out directly: " If Uncle Changzhi wants to know what's going on, Shopkeeper Qin will naturally tell you that my nephew has something to do, so he won't be here with you."</p> The voice gradually faded away, and soon Ye Chang's figure disappeared in the street. among the crowds in the city. </p> "Shopkeeper Qin, what on earth is going on!" Ye Mei grabbed Qin Qinshou's sleeve with his hands. </p> "You don't know, dear guest? Two days ago, my nephew sent someone to order bamboo. He paid a deposit and ordered all the bamboo for the store. However, he only wanted the store to deliver half of the goods. He also said that it would be available in a few days. The customer came to buy the remaining half of the goods at a high price and asked his servant to sell it for him. "Qin Qinshou knew that he seemed to be involved in some kind of family dispute, but when he saw that Ye Mei wanted to plot against his nephew, he fell in love with him. In the trap set by his son, he didn't have much sympathy in his heart, so he said honestly: "The distinguished guest is indeed here today, and regardless of the servant's dissuasion, he insists on buying the bamboo he kept in the shop at a high price"</p > "Ah!"</p> Ye Ming only felt that there were six shining golden stars spinning around in front of his eyes, and it felt like a thousand frogs were shouting at the same time in his ears. </p> He was plotting against Ye Chang, but in the end he was plotted against by Ye Chang! </p> "This is impossible. How can he get so much money to order all the moso bamboo from you?" The sweet and fishy smell came out of Ye Miao's throat, and he managed to calm down and said. </p> "One stick of three cents, three hundred cents is nine hundred cents. According to the rules, he only needs to pay a 30% deposit first." Qin Qinshou said sincerely: "Dear guest, he paid a deposit of three hundred cents, and said that if If no one comes to take away these moso bamboos at a high price, they don't want the three hundred coins." Qin Qinshou didn't mention that Liu Kun also promised that both parties would get half of the profit. He now roughly understood the difference between the two customers. They are scheming against each other. In this case, just let them resolve the conflict by themselves. </p> ¡°You little beast, you little beast, how dare you do this!¡±</p> Ye Zhu trembled all over and sat back on the cushion. But he jumped up immediately. This time he lost six dollars. He could almost imagine how his shrew Mrs. Liu would deal with him after he went back! </p> ¡°Give me back the money!¡± He grabbed Qin Qinshou and said, ¡°You are colluding with a little beast, please pay me back!¡±</p> ¡°Bah!¡±</p> I¡¯ve been waiting nearby. The standing black man grinned and slapped Ye Mei in the face. The slap made Ye Mei spin around three times, and a big molar tooth was swallowed into his stomach along with the blood. </p> "The distinguished guest is joking. Just now you begged me to do this business, and we have signed a written agreement and will not regret each other." Qin Qinshou took out the written note with some pride: "I knew it. , you will regret spending a high price on moso bamboo. I tried to persuade you repeatedly, but you just didn¡¯t listen. Be prepared, be prepared!¡± /p> "Lin Xitong, throw him out, you dare to ruin my reputation. If I weren't in a good mood after doing big business today, I would definitely take him to see the official!" Tan Qinshou shouted. </p> The strong black man responded, picked up the leaf and threw it out of the shop. Ye Mei sat on the ground and beat the ground and cursed. In a blink of an eye, Fang Zheng was alerted. Fang Zheng was the one who had just acted as the middleman and received five cents as a thank you gift. When he came over and heard what happened, he laughed and said: "You have no reason to be so good." , Shopkeeper Qin just now repeatedly advised you not to buy it, you are seeking your own death, who are you to blame? Get out of here, sir, don¡¯t cause trouble here, be careful, I will ask someone to slap you in the face! Someone else said: "That's right, you plotted against your nephew, but your nephew plotted against you. Who can you blame? Besides, every injustice has its owner, and it's your nephew who set this trap for you. Don't go find him." , why are you still crying and making trouble here?¡±</p> With this reminder, Ye Mei suddenly remembered the culprit who brought him to this point, and he saw it with his own eyes when Ye Mei got three pieces of money. , to settle accounts, we still have to look for trouble with Ye Neem. </p> Thinking of this, he did not greet his loyal servant, picked up his clothes and chased outside. But when Ye Chang reached his goal, he turned around and left without stopping at all. When Ye Zhu arrived at the gate of the square, he didn't even see his back. </p> "Langjun, Langjun!" The loyal servant caught up with him panting. </p> ¡°Chase, chase for me!¡± Ye Zhu said sternly. </p> It¡¯s just that they chased her back and forth, but they didn¡¯t catch her. After returning to Wu Ze to inquire, Ye Chang went to the construction site again. </p> ¡°Keep chasing¡± Ye Mei gritted his teeth.??</p> But by this time, he had calmed down. When he went to buy bamboo, it could only be said that he was fighting with Ye Chang, but it could not be said that it was to destroy the water diversion. Otherwise, the people with fields on the slopes would have to fight with him. You can't fight hard. He was thinking about how to handle Ye Chang. On the way, he suddenly thought that Ye Chang would not be able to complete his project without these bamboos. In the end, he still asked to come to him! </p> When thinking of this, Ye Ming felt a little proud again: Eat what I have and spit it out for me, use what I have and give it back to me! </p> He is not usually so stupid, but now he is so arrogant and arrogant in front of Ye Chang that he is not used to suddenly changing his way of thinking. He was anxious to force Ye Chang to pay back his money, so he hurried to the construction site. </p> Along the way, we saw that the ditches were almost completely built, and some people used wooden piers to ram the soil to compact the bottom of the ditches to prevent water from seeping into the ground. Ye Mei sneered and curled his lips. Without enough bamboo, there would be no way to attract water. These people would be happy in vain. </p> Still far away, he saw Ye Chang standing among a group of rocks, directing several men around the fire and not knowing what they were doing. Ye Mei judged the position, and it was exactly the place that he felt was absolutely impossible to cross. </p> "Be careful, be careful, don't break itif you break it, you have to start over. We only have a dozen moso bamboos left, so we can't waste it like this."</p> I heard "There are only a dozen bamboos left." "Moso bamboo", Ye Mei felt happy in his heart. He straightened his clothes, then put his hands behind his back, imitated the walking posture of the clan leader Ye Dan, and slowly walked over. </p> Then I saw a fire. Two men each held one end of the moso bamboo and were roasting the middle part of the moso bamboo on the fire. Then they used their strength at the same time to slowly bend the moso bamboo. </p> This is not a strange method. When weaving bamboo baskets, bamboo craftsmen will do this in order to keep the bamboo in an arc shape. Ye Mei curled his lips and sneered: "So what if it's bent, you can't lead water from a low place to a high place!"</p> "Who says it can't be done?" Ye Chang raised his eyes and looked at him. </p> ¡°When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. The simplest truth!¡± It's not difficult to flow to higher places." Ye Chang glanced at him and said, "Uncle Changzhi, just watch." Ye Mei heard that he was laughing at his loss in Fangshi. He was immediately furious, but seeing the unkind looks from the men around Ye Chang, he thought about settling the accounts later. At that moment, he sneered and found a stone to sit on, just waiting for the outcome of the matter. </p> It didn¡¯t take long for the moso bamboo to be bent into a bow shape, followed by the second and third moso bamboos. There were five moso bamboos in total, all of which were bent to a certain extent. Then a carpenter in the village bent them into a bow shape. All five pieces of moso bamboo were connected, and then the interface was sealed tightly. </p> In this way, a rainbow-shaped tube with a length of seven feet is formed. To this day, Ye Ming still doesn¡¯t understand what this means. </p> "Bring the water here." Ye Chang said again. </p> Soon, the gate in front opened, and water gurgled out. The amount of water was larger than Ye Nei thought. He was a little surprised, but he didn't know that Ye Chang found two more springs, and tried to find a way to connect the three springs. gather together. Everyone had already piled rocks and soil beside the boulder to create a small pool. The water gathered, and Ye Chang asked everyone to put the long pipe into the water. </p> Soon the long pipe was full. Ye Chang blocked both ends of the long pipe. He tried it and found that there was no leakage, so he called on everyone to join the long pipe and put it on the other end. They made it short on one side of the pool and long on the other side. </p> "Hahaha"</p> Seeing everyone struggling to carry a bamboo pipe filled with water, stumbling and falling several times, Ye Miao finally felt extremely relaxed, and he He laughed broadly. </p> Laughing and applauding. </p> ¡°Good idea, good plan, it was indeed given by the immortal.¡± He stood up and climbed on top of the boulder: ¡°In this way, if there are dozens of you here, you can pour water from a bamboo pipe at a time. After a whole day of work, you can always pour a few rocks of water Hahahaha! "The others didn't say anything, but felt a little worried in their hearts. When they heard Ye Mei's sarcasm, they all looked like Ye Changwang! Come. </p> ¡°Continue, we will see soon, who is ridiculous and who is not.¡± Ye Chang gestured. </p> Everyone set up the bamboo pipe. Seeing that the time was almost right, Ye Chang asked someone to carry water in a bucket to the other side. Dozens of people started working together, and they made it on the other side with all their hands and feet. There was a small puddle. The other end of the bamboo pipe was put into the small puddle, and this end was also stuffed into the rising water. </p> "That's almost it. I'll call one, two, three. At three o'clock, you guys put the two??The plugs were pulled out. Be careful not to bring the mouth out of the water. ¡±</p> ¡°Eleventh Lang just gives orders. "An elder on both sides said.</p> "Okay, one! ¡±</p> As Ye Chang shouted one word, the crowd on both sides couldn¡¯t help but move closer to the water. Only Ye Zhi still stood there, with a look of contempt on his face.</p> He didn¡¯t believe it. Water can be diverted across this mountain ridge. After all, water is diverted from low to high places first! </p> ¡°Two! "Ye Chang didn't even see it, so he called out another number.</p> For some reason, Ye Chang's heart jumped suddenly, and he couldn't help but become nervous. He held his breath, leaned forward, and looked at the rainbow-shaped bamboo tube. The other end. </p> ¡°Three! "</p> Ye Chang shouted out the third number, and then the elders on both sides pulled out the stopper from the bamboo tube, and a few bubbles came out. Ye Chang's throat trembled: "Ha, ha. , how can the water go to higher places? "</p> His voice was a little dry, but before he could finish speaking, the elder at the pool above exclaimed: "There is water, water is coming in!" ¡±</p> The water coming out of the puddle below can also be said to be the water originally contained in the bamboo tube. However, an obvious vortex appeared at the opening of the bamboo tube in the puddle above, which proves that water has indeed entered. In the bamboo tube! </p> ¡°There is water, there is water! "Everyone was originally staring at the puddle below. At this time, they climbed up one after another, but only less than halfway up, someone from below shouted again.</p> So everyone turned around and saw the water in the puddle below. It overflowed and turned into a few trickles, flowing towards the ditch dug in advance. </p> "There is really water!" "Everyone couldn't help but cheer. For a moment, the sound was loud. Laughter, tears of joy and exclamations were mixed together. Everyone made a sound, as if otherwise, they could not express their joy.</p > Even Ye Chang breathed a sigh of relief. </p> It¡¯s just the siphon principle. In fact, the Chinese people had mastered this principle very early. In the Song Dynasty, the Chinese people even used this principle to irrigate their fields. It was given a name that is very characteristic of the country: Mountain Crossing Dragon. When Ye Chang originally planned the route, he thought of using this principle to overcome some dangers. However, although he was confident, he was still a little worried. I feel relieved. </p> Now that the water has arrived, I will naturally find someone to settle the account with, or at least laugh at him for being blind. </p> "Good idea, good plan, it really comes from the guidance of an immortal. Passed! "Before Ye Chang started to ridicule Ye Mei, the neighbors who had recovered their senses had already spoken. They were all holding their anger after listening to Ye Mei's sarcastic remarks, but they were not sure in their hearts and did not dare to talk back. How could they miss this opportunity now? Ye Chang did not speak for a while. In their opinion, Ye Chang was a generous and generous man. In this case, those of them who had benefited from Ye Chang would certainly say this for Ye Chang. </p > Someone imitated the tone of Ye Ming just now and said something strange. </p> But Ye Ming didn¡¯t hear it. </p> Ye Ming stared at the water and breathed like a toad that just wanted to turn its belly. Staring closely at the puddle beneath me, I watched the water in the puddle flood the originally dry land and merge into the dug trench. Although it was only a trickle, it flowed steadily forward. </ p> ¡°This is impossible. " He thought so in his heart and said so in his mouth.</p> "Haha, this is impossible, so what is possible? ¡±</p> ¡°This must be a dream, absolutely a dreamah! "</p> "Ye Zhu was saying that he was dreaming. An elder beside him couldn't help it and hit him hard on the thigh with a bamboo branch. The pain made him jump immediately.</p> " This is not a dream, and there is no pain in the dream. The elder chuckled and said, "Fourth son of the Ye family, are you sure now that you are not dreaming?" "</p> "Ye Si was the fourth among his peers. He heard the jeers all around him. He didn't want to get anything else, so he jumped up, covered his face with his sleeves, and ran away.</p> "Ye Si, Be careful where you step, don't get so angry that you fall down with a black nose and a swollen face, or your fierce wife will whip you! "Another mean person shouted from behind.</p> That bamboo tube can actually lead water to high places, which completely subverts the common sense that Ye Mei has known for decades. Therefore, all he can think about now is: Could it be that Little beast - no, Shi Yilang really received the guidance of the Xian family? If so, what will happen if he offends the disciples of the Xian family? </p> </p> </p>
