阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写使之构成一个完整的故事。
Once upon a time, two brothers who lived on neighbouring farms fell into conflict. It was the first serious disagreement in forty years of farming side by side, sharing machinery, and trading labour and goods as needed without a hitch.
Then the long cooperation fell apart. It began with small misunderstand and then grew into a major difference, and finally it exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.
One morning, there was a knock on John’s door. He opened it to find a man with a carpenter’s toolbox. “I’m looking for a few days’ work,” he said. Perhaps you have few jobs here and there. Could help you?
“Yes,” said John. “I do have a job for you. Look across the small stream at that farm. That’s my neighbor. In fact, it’s my younger brother. Last week there was a meadow (草地) between us and he took his bulldozer (推土机) there and now there is creek between us. Well, he may have done this to annoy me but I’ll do better. See that pile of wood by the barn (谷仓)? I want you to build a fence—an 8-foot-high fence—so I won’t need to see his place anymore.”
The carpenter said, “I think I understand the situation. Show me the nails and hole-digger and I’ll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
The older brother had to go to the town for supplies, so he helped the carpenter get everything ready and then he left. The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring, sawing and nailing. At sunset when John returned, the carpenter had just finished his job, John’s eyes opened wide and his jaw dropped.
