Chapter 136: A Labourer's New Home (I)

As the weather gets cooler, Vladivostok is getting busier. Winter is approaching day by day, everyone has changed into autumn clothes and pants, especially the migrant workers living in tents have already distributed military coats at this time.

In October in Vladivostok, the temperature in the middle of the night is less than 10 degrees Celsius, and it is often accompanied by strong winds to cool down the weather.

During this time, the company is actively preparing for the first winter of Vladivostok. Large areas of autumn vegetables are harvested, and truckloads of autumn vegetables are sent to newly dug cellars for storage.

Huge quantities of green carrots, snow ferns, cabbage, and mustard heads are all in the harvest season. The company deliberately brought a jar vat from the modern society, the largest is a sauerkraut vat with a diameter of more than one meter, and then the Chinese cabbage, cabbage, snow fern, and even green peppers, kidney beans, cucumbers, cowpeas, carrots and other vegetables are pickled into sauerkraut and kimchi, large and small sauerkraut jars, kimchi jars are placed into a radius of more than 100 meters, the scene is very spectacular.

There were also plenty of Chinese cabbage and other vegetables, as well as chopped turnips dried and dressed in bunches, which hung row after row in an open field, swaying with the bleak north wind.

In the bay at the mouth of the Golden Horn, thousands of Liao laborers and thousands of indigenous women are also making final preparations before winter. Every day, all but two of the 10 armed fishing boats went out to sea to fish.

Two whaling boats and dozens of wooden fishing boats were also busy, and fishing boats kept coming into the harbor. Moored at the dock of the fishing port and unloading ships of catch.

Thousands of indigenous women are busy for more than ten hours a day, but they are not tired in the slightest. Looking at the mountains of all kinds of lively sea fish on the dock, their eyes were red. As locals, they know all too well how cold and long the winters can be.

From the age of a few years, they are taught by their parents to store enough food for the winter before the onset of winter, and the more the better. Once food is insufficient, the old people and children of the tribe are starved to death. So every time it comes to this season. It's often their busiest time.

When they saw so many catches and boatloads of fish being delivered, they burst into tears of excitement. Regardless of their fatigue, they went crazy and dealt with the mountains of fish. Their thinking is simple. As part of this tribe. If there is not enough food in winter. They should be the first to starve, so they are afraid that the tribe will not have enough food for wintering, and desperately want to collect all these catches before winter.

Most of the fish and whale meat were cleaned up by them. It will be dried into dried fish. A considerable part of the fish will be salted into salted fish, and the larger marine fish will shave off the fish, send it to a blender, live with corn starch to make fish balls, and send it to the simple cold storage next to it, and in the winter it will be put in the wild to freeze casually.

The company also has special personnel to catch various shellfish such as scallops, conchs, razor clams, clams, sea rainbows, fresh shellfish, clams, sea mussels, etc., which are also processed by some indigenous women and then dried to make various dried scallops. There are also many Liao people who collect wild kelp and sea vegetables in the shallow sea to dry and keep them for wintering food.

In addition to the necessary work, all other projects in Vladivostok have been completed, all the equipment has been sealed, and a large number of cold-proof treatments have been done. Now everyone is busy everywhere, everyone knows that winter is coming, and they are making the final preparations before winter.

Raw coal has been piled up in several coal storage points in Vladivostok. Several loaders are still pushing the newly transported raw coal to the top of the coal pile, making room for the arrival of new coal trucks. The company has stopped all work, and more than 100 KAMAZ dump trucks go back and forth between Vladivostok and the open-pit coal mine every day, and many times people stop and replace them with new drivers, and transport coal 24 hours a day.

Li Ming stood next to the coal storage point of the storage center, looking at the sharp coal mountains, and his heart was also very excited. He turned his head to Li Tianhe, the director of the heating department next to him, and smiled: "Lao Li, this time the raw coal reserves of our coal storage points should be enough, right?" ”

Li Tianhe nodded and said excitedly: "Enough...... That's enough...... Even two winters are enough, haha...... Now we in Vladivostok have some small-scale boilers and steam generators, and then some coal for heating of the Liao people, which is enough......"

At this time, there was a horn sound behind him, and when Li Ming looked back, he saw He Haobo's chubby body jumping out of a truck. It's strange to say, in the past few months that everyone has come to Vladivostok, because of the work of getting up early and working late every day, the weight has been declining, but this fat man is not only not thin, but there is a trend of increase.

He shouted excitedly when he was far away: "Li Ming, haha...... Our house is about to be divided, haha......"

Li Ming was also overjoyed, and said excitedly: "Our house has been delivered?" ”

He Fatzi ran to Li Ming's side and laughed: "That's not true, but the house is undergoing internal renovation, and the infrastructure has been completed. Finally there's hope, haha......"

Li Ming was also very excited when he heard it, to be honest, everyone was really fed up with the days of being crowded like a migrant worker in the assembled house in the past few months. Fortunately, everyone is tired and can sleep soon when they get home.

He Fatzi took out cigarettes and handed them out to everyone, and then said with a smile: "The workers are still happy, and tomorrow will be the day when their workers will be divided." ”

Li Tianhe, who was next to him, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said suspiciously: "It's so fast, I remember that more than 3,000 independent houses for laborers were temporarily added in the later period." It seems that this new labor system has indeed allowed the productive forces of the Liao people to explode. ”

Li Ming nodded, and said meaningfully: "It has been completed a long time ago, and this time is to do some finishing work, and the company also deliberately wants to delay the time, so I have to let them experience the taste of autumn in Vladivostok in the tent." Don't live in such a nice house. I don't know how to be grateful to Dade anymore. ”

He Fatzi and Li Tianhe next to him were stunned for a moment, and then the two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

The next day, all the Liaomin suddenly received the order to stop work for a day today, and just when they were puzzled, the captains of each production team announced the company's latest instructions, that is, everyone should move to the new house prepared by the company for them today.

As soon as the news was announced, all the laborers cheered loudly, and the cheers of the laborers could be heard throughout Vladivostok. These days they are in old age in their tents, in the middle of the night. The biting autumn knife wind is no joke.

Everyone happily put away their tents. Then they quickly sorted out their personal belongings and lined up to walk to the location of their new houses. Everyone was beaming, having suffered a lot in the tent these days, and this time I heard that the company had arranged a house for them to spend the winter. It's all grateful.

Liu Degui excitedly led the Liao people in the production team to the location of the new house. Everyone is looking forward to the new house. Many people are inevitably worried, and they pray that the new house must be warm.

They were all born in Liaodong, and Liaodong in this era is not so easy to survive. The weather was very cold. Liu Degui is also thinking about the appearance of his new house, he heard a few days ago that their new house has come down, he has not slept well for a few days, and he is even dreaming about his house.

Finally, they arrived next to the new house, five wood-carved wooden houses side by side, so that all the Liao people who had never seen this kind of house did not have much support in their hearts, even if the house in their hometown was old and broken, it was also a house made of adobe, but this newly built house was actually made of wood.

Liu Degui was also stunned when he saw such a house, he turned around and shouted to the Liao people behind him: "What are you doing in a daze, go in......"

When they lifted the two thick cotton curtains at the door and walked into the wooden house, when they saw the scene inside the house, there was a burst of cheers from the wooden house.

Such a house has greatly exceeded their expectations, and everyone touched the thick felt on the kang, and their faces were full of horror. Such a large piece of felt would cost a lot of silver. With such a large piece of felt, it is not necessarily cold even if you lie in the ice and snow.

They opened their own cabinets and put their luggage in, and the whole cabinet was divided into three layers, which was very spacious. The top one can put some of your daily necessities, the middle cabinet can be placed with some clothes and covers, and the bottom can also put some sundries and shoes.

Some Liao people even jumped on the kang to see the two glass windows, they had never seen glass before, so they were very interested in the two small windows. Such a large kang sleeps ten people, it is simply too spacious. Liao Min kept walking around in his new house, and he couldn't help himself with excitement.

And the oil lamps on the wall, which shimmered in the dim light of the dimly lit room. They stood on the kang and looked around the oil lamp, and kept studying how the oil lamp was lit.

Even if this house was a rich family in their village before, the place where they lived was not as spacious as their house. The four thick cotton curtains on the two doors, coupled with the kang in the house, know that even if this house is the coldest winter, the house will be as warm as spring.

Liu Degui looked at this house, and then thought of the house he was about to divide, and his heart couldn't help but feel hot. He shouted loudly, "Hold on to your luggage." Hygiene is also required here, and the chiefs will conduct regular inspections, and if they find that the hygiene is not up to standard, we will dig out the huts for the other production teams. I'll leave it here, if anyone affects everyone because he didn't do it well, then you can dig it out yourself, and we won't lose that person with you.

Then there is the thatched house, there is a thatched house behind our house, you must not drench everywhere, if you are found by the chief, you will be deducted points, and it will also affect the selection of our production team's mobile red flag. (To be continued......)
