Chapter 530: Transforming the Living Environment (Five More Requests for Subscription)
At the end of July, the wheat fields were swaying, and although it had only rained, the wheat was still surging in the wind.
Wan Feng looked at the wheat field on the side of the road while walking, today's wheat is not good, the wheat ears don't seem to be very big, but they are not bad, that is, an ordinary year.
After this heavy rain, it is estimated that there will be no more heavy rain for ten days and half a month, and when the land is cool, it is time to harvest the wheat.
After the wheat is flaked, after a few days of drying, the chain-rail tractor-drawn Combein harvester goes into the field to collect the crop.
After the harvest was completed in front, someone in the back put the barren land, that is, they set fire to the wheat straw.
Wheat straw has no economic value and cannot be burned as firewood like soybean straw, so it can only be burned as plant ash.
The company usually hires some students who are at home during the summer vacation, of course, they must be older, because there are no idlers in the company to do this during the autumn harvest, so they can only hire students.
After collecting and burning the grass during the day, the tractor pulls the five-plough to plough the ground at night, and the grass and wood ashes are directly detained into the ground to become tomorrow's fertilizer.
Wan Feng misses the days of burning the wasteland very much.
At first, each of the companies was given a box of matches, and after lighting it on the straw, they would hold the burning straw one by one.
August is the hottest time, and it is a very sinful thing to have a high temperature and a fire.
But for students, these are overcome, and they can make money for fun.
There are a few teenagers who don't like to kill people and set fires... Kill and forget it.
Although the little faces were flushed, they were still happy.
Later, it is not known who invented the method of burning waste with waste rubber belts.
There are a lot of machines in the company that are made of rubber belts, so there are a lot of them.
The rubber belt was planed, and when it came to the wheat field, it was lit at one end, and then the man dragged it slowly on the straw trumpet.
People walk in front of the fire and burn in the back, and for a time black smoke billowed into the sky.
In this way, people avoid the fate of being roasted by fire, and the work efficiency is greatly accelerated.
If you're lucky, you can even pick up a silly quail that has been burned to death.
Quails are also quite strange, and I don't know what they are doing when they get into the straw, and sometimes they are stupidly burned to death.
Although such things are rare, they do happen from time to time.
Do you want to follow the students of the company to the field to burn the wasteland in two days?
The company didn't pay attention to the eight-mao Wan Feng for a day, but it was still very tempting to set fire to it unscrupulously.
How many times in a person's life can they set fire to play?
When the two returned home, it was already eleven o'clock at noon, and Zhu Min was deeply surprised that the father and son had come back in such a short time and had picked so many fungus.
It happened that the sky was sunny outside, and Zhu Min immediately took the fungus outside to the garden to dry.
One hundred and twenty or thirty pounds of fungus were dried and blackened and pressed into a large piece, shining in the sun after the rain, which was very beautiful.
After lunch, Jin Xingbin and Xu Jinguoshen mysteriously came to Wanfeng, saying that they were going to hunt mountain pears and casually went to Dalinzi North to steal plums.
Isn't that!
To the northwest of the Forty-Two and Great Forest Brigade was surrounded by a small forest with about a dozen wild Yamanashi trees.
It's just that the people here can't wait for the beans to rot, for fear that they won't be able to catch them when they are ripe, so they pick them back and put them in the box when the stalks are only five percent ripe.
This kind of raw pear covered with ripe pears is actually astringent and not delicious.
In the previous life, Wan Feng had also done such a thing with pleasure, but now he was not interested.
As for the plum thing, eating less is a second, and the words about burying dead people under the plum tree should not come out of thin air.
Da Linzi North Bangzi is the northernmost family, and there is a child as big as Wan Feng in this family, which should be called Wu Xiping, Wu Xiping's house is surrounded by plum trees, and there are many yellow plums.
Wan Feng and the others had stolen it many times, but in the end, Wu Xiping became their classmate.
Since they became classmates, they didn't have to steal it, and when it was ripe, Wu Xiping would pick a lot of plums for them to eat.
Anyway, it can't be sold for money, and if you don't eat it, it will only rot.
Wan Feng didn't agree to steal plums with them, nor did he promise to play ball, he had to design something in the afternoon.
"Dad, do you think we can have a hut in the middle of the wall?"
Wan Feng pulled Lao Tzu to the field, pointed to the field and said.
"Partition huts?
"Wouldn't it save space by moving the pot to the door? Just in time for a small hut to be laid out in the wall, and a small kang can be laid out, and when I come back, I will sleep in this room with my brother." ”
Wan Shuichang immediately became interested, and this attention is good.
He will be fifteen when he comes back next year, and it will be too inconvenient to sleep on the same kang with his parents again.
Wan Shuichang found a meter ruler to measure left and right.
"You can also build a second layer on top of it, which can put a lot of things. ”
Two meters high from the ground to the roof, isolating a second floor twenty or thirty centimeters high can indeed put a lot of things.
"How do you separate these two floors?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I'll solve it, where can I buy red bricks?"
There doesn't seem to be a brick kiln in this area, and it's not easy to buy red bricks.
"If you buy red bricks, you have to go to the red and Maoji. ”
Hongermaoji is the seat of the Yanjiang Commune, which is a Russian name.
There are many names like this Russian style along the Longjiang River, not to mention the place name Ermaozi.
Red and Mao Ji are twenty miles away from the forty-two companies, and if you want to buy bricks, you can only go to the tractor.
The company has two Dongfanghong 28 tractors, one surnamed Sun and the other surnamed Pan, please move Wan Feng does not feel any difficulty, but it must be approved by the commander of the maintenance company.
If the company commander doesn't agree, it's useless.
Wan Feng began to calculate the number of bricks on the wall of the wall, and calculated that there were a thousand bricks that could not be used no matter how much they were pulled.
Bricks tomorrow, go to the carpenter first.
The carpenter shop of the 42nd Company is in the field east of Wan Feng's house, and the lonely house is next to the well, and he passes by the carpenter shop every day to fetch water.
Wan Feng came to the carpenter's shop with a flat pole and a bucket, and when he went back, he brought a piece of water back.
Forty-two companies and two carpenters, one surnamed Xu and the other surnamed Zhang, Xu carpenter's appearance is very similar to You Benchang who played Jigong in the 80s, and he always looks smiling.
Wan Feng said his intention, a door that was pulled left and right, a small window, and a second floor.
These things don't need any good wood, and Wan Feng's family still has some broken boards.
Wan Feng paid thirty yuan for these things, and asked two carpenters to use their free time in the evening to make them at home.
The two carpenters naturally agreed, saying that they would go over tonight.
After the doors and windows and the second floor were solved, Wan Feng took the water and returned home, and then he and his father turned over those broken boards and broken wooden squares.
Every family here is a timber production area, and every family takes advantage of the board or something, but there is no need to spend money to buy it.
After the two men turned the boards out of the building, they also connected the electric lights outside, and waited for the carpenter to work in the evening.
