Chapter 327: Sadness and Joy Are Not Intimacy

This simple antique-style building in modern times makes the people in the upper and lower villages extremely happy at this moment.

They had never seen such a house before, it was so tall and beautiful.

It is said that it can withstand earthquakes of magnitude seven.

Although we know that earthquake means the earth dragon turning over, no one thinks that any house can withstand the turning over of the earth dragon.

But who would want to encounter a dragon turning over? Naturally, they would just make a couple of "Puh" sounds, sing some auspicious words to get rid of the bad luck, and then continue to enjoy their own house.

There are so many steel bars here, so a house like this can be lived in for at least three or five generations without any worries.

Many people looked at their homes, unable to suppress the smiles on their faces.

"So lovely."

"I never dreamed that I would be able to live in a house like this one day."

"Yes, such a nice house is actually mine. I am afraid I am dreaming."

"Yes, yes. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I just finished the inspection two days ago, and I still haven't reacted to it."

Everyone was talking at once, with happy smiles on their faces.

The house has its own toilet. You sit on the toilet and press a switch, and water comes out. You don't have to empty the toilet every day.

Even if you are on the second floor, you don’t have to run up and down to fetch water. It is very convenient.

There is a special bathroom for bathing. You can take a bath in the bathtub or stand next to it to take a shower.

Although the shower head cost money, the moment we saw the finished product, everyone felt that it was worth the money.

These days, people who built new houses in the upper and lower villages always like to visit their neighbors and friends.

Even if there are no relatives or friends to visit, you can either take a small stool and sit in front of your new house, and chat with anyone who passes by.

As long as the topic is about the new house, people will quickly gather in twos and threes to share the equipment in the new house that they have never heard of or seen before.

"Although I have never been to the imperial palace, nor have I seen what the residences of high-ranking officials and princes look like, I am extremely satisfied with this house of mine."

"That's right, no one in my family is dissatisfied!"

"My parents cried last night, saying they never thought they could live in such a nice house when they get old." The person who spoke had red eyes.

The next second, his tone changed and he said proudly, "I advised them that good days have just begun. With the young lady of Taohua Village here, as long as we follow her carefully, our lives will definitely get better and better."

"It's all thanks to Mr. Bai that he was able to make biogas available to everyone."

"Yes, yes, I heard that the fertilizer in the biogas digester can be used in the fields, which is killing two birds with one stone."

"No, no, you said it's too little. The chicken and duck manure raised at home can be swept and thrown into the biogas digester to increase biogas, and then it can be used as fertilizer. This is called killing three birds with one stone."

"If you ask me, it can definitely achieve more than three goals at once. This biogas is so convenient to use..."

Happy people are mostly happy about the same or similar things.

But the thing that bothers the unhappy people is the same thing now, at least it is the same in the upper village and the lower village recently.

There were people in the upper and lower villages who did not sign up to build houses. After all, before leaving their hometowns and coming to Junji Mountain, the houses they lived in were either thatched huts or tall and bright houses.

Even if you hire someone to build a five-room house with two entrances, it would only cost more than one hundred taels of silver, not as much as Taohua Village reported.

Therefore, these people did not sign up to participate, and expressed their desire to build according to their own ideas. In this regard, Taohua Village did not comment. Anyway, as mentioned before, this matter is mainly based on personal voluntariness.

Originally these people were worried that if they refused they would be harassed by Taohua Village, but unexpectedly, Taohua Village did not take it seriously.

Then, in the spring when the busy farming season was over, they hurriedly built a new house, fearing that if it was too late the people in Taohua Village would go back on their word.

When their houses were almost built, the families in the village who had registered with Taohua Village began to bring in construction materials, and they started laying the foundation a few days later.

When the first floor of the building in the project that Taohua Village was responsible for had not yet been topped off, the houses that these people had built in advance had already been completed, and those who were quick had already cleaned them and started moving in.

Now we are all from the same village. Our families have built their houses long ago, but other people in the village have only started now because they signed up for collective house building, and the cost is much higher. Aren’t they being taken advantage of?

Why build such tall buildings? It’s so tiring to climb up and down. We have to keep our feet on the ground to feel at ease.

These people are proud that they moved into the new house early, spent less money and did not get taken advantage of.

Then the next day they saw that Taohua Village had used steel bars on other people’s houses in the village, and they were dumbfounded.

Steel bars?
No, how could ordinary people use such precious steel to build their houses?

Houses are built like this?!
You know, steel bars are more difficult to refine than iron, and naturally more expensive.

What surprised them even more was what came next.

After the first floor began to be topped off, the second floor soon began to take shape.

Then, I couldn't help but compare my own house with the houses built for the villagers in Taohua Village. It was even more uncomfortable for those who tried to find a balance in their hearts.

balcony?

Why do the people in Taohua Village build balconies that extend outward and use steel bars?

And there’s the biogas digester; the first house they built didn’t have it.

Many people regretted their decision immediately when they thought about the fact that without a biogas digester, they would not be able to share their own heating and fertilizer with other people in the village.

Wouldn't it have been better to sign up with the majority of the people in the village? !
But just this point alone made these people feel a little regretful, but when they thought about the money their family saved, they felt that it was nothing.

However, after the next two or three days, as they saw the slight changes in the houses of other people in the village, these people felt more and more regretful.

It goes without saying that a house paved with steel bars must be extremely strong.

The houses they built themselves were at most three meters and seventy centimeters high, but the houses built by Taohua Village had one floor that was four meters and two centimeters high.

Even though the house has not been built yet, they can imagine how tall and bright it will be.

These people endured the inner torment as they watched the villagers' houses spring up like mushrooms after a rain, with several being completed today and five being completed tomorrow.

When they visited the houses built for the villagers in Taohua Village, they could no longer smile. After returning home, they couldn't eat or sleep well.

I used to think that everything about my new house was good, but now nothing about it is good.

For example, if you want to go to the toilet, you have to go outside, no matter day or night, no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter.

But it is different for other people in the village. They can do it at home without any smell, and each floor is equipped with a toilet and a bathroom.

There is also a shower head that can spray water by twisting the handle. It is very convenient.
