Chapter 006 Returning team arrives, Wang Zhong shows off his skills(1/2)
Just after the summer harvest, the villagers were busy threshing the wheat. Wang Zhong did not expect that the Three Monkeys and Lao Ganbang would come to help him. Otherwise, they would directly carry the thresher to the field and thresh it there. Compared to
It’s much more convenient to thresh the seeds when you come back.
Although Wang Zhongtai's type of threshing machine looks simple, it can actually thresh wheat. However, it requires a person to specifically pedal, just like riding a bicycle. The pedal drives the transmission device and urges the drum, and the threshing machine
It can operate normally and the threshing effect is very good.
The only disadvantage is that it cannot be used by one person like a windmill, and requires the cooperation of two people.
One tramples and the other threshes the wheat.
Ma Renli naturally became the tool man who stepped on the pedal.
Wang Zhong, Lao Ganbang and the three monkeys took turns threshing the wheat. Ma Renli was responsible for stepping on the pedal. When Ma Renli was really tired, someone else took over.
With the cooperation of four people, it took only half a day for the wheat produced by the four people to be threshed.
However, after the wheat is threshed, the wheat must be sun-dried or dried to reduce the moisture in the wheat to a standard suitable for storage, otherwise the wheat will be easily covered.
Nowadays, with windmills and threshing machines, wheat does not need to be piled in the store all the time, and there is no need to worry about the weather that may change at any time.
Nowadays, there is no special machine for drying. The speed of drying slowly with a kang is too slow, and you can't dry much at one time. Wang Zhong found it troublesome, so he picked two sunny days to dry the wheat twice, and then
It goes through the windmill twice more before being weighed and put into storage.
Wang Zhong had more than two acres, close to three acres, and the dried wheat weighed just over three hundred kilograms. On average, the yield per acre was only over one hundred, which was indeed a bit low.
After the wheat is put into the warehouse, it has to be plowed and planted.
It took seven days to plow all four people's land. This was due to Wang's strong gravity, otherwise the speed would have been slower.
After plowing, we still had to sow seeds. Wang Zhong planted peanuts and soybeans, and Lao Ganbang and the others planted corn and soybeans.
From the beginning of the summer harvest to the plowing of the summer planting, other people in the village saw that Wang Zhong and the four of them worked together much more efficiently than themselves, so they all started thinking. Niu Dadan and Wang Wanchun were also quick-thinking.
Moreover, a model similar to mutual aid groups like Wang Zhong's has long existed in the Northeast.
What is different from the original plot is that with Wang Zhong and others as a living example and seeing the remarkable results brought by the mutual aid group, the villagers in the village couldn't wait to take the initiative to learn from Wang Zhong and form a mutual aid group.
So under the call and organization of the village chief Wang Wanchun and the chairman of the farmers' association Niu Bingdao, nearly half of the dozens of households in Maixiang Village, with more than 100 people, successively expressed their agreement to form a mutual aid group, and the rest were either from their families.
Those with a large population may still have a wait-and-see attitude.
As the chairman of the farmers' association, Niu Dadan was very aware and took the lead to form a mutual aid group with several needy households in the village. The villagers followed suit and formed groups of three or five households to produce farm tools in one place. Several families
Let’s work together to prepare for autumn planting.
Suddenly six mutual aid groups were born.
Seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, Wang Zhong ran to the fields every two days to check the growth of peanuts and corn, and to see if the pear trees on the mountain were infected with insects.
There are thirty-six trees, all of which were planted by Wang Zhong in the stone land on the mountain. Wang Zhong’s depression was also replaced with the stone land next to Blind Old Yin. The two stone lands added up were enough.
Two acres is more than three thirds.
In order to distinguish the boundary area, Wang Zhong planted a circle of pear trees around the two-acre stone land. In the outer circle alone, thirty-six pear saplings were planted.
What is grown in the ground are the vegetables that Wang Zhong brought.
The vegetables were divided into ridges, and the remaining open space was cleared by Wang Zhonglu one after another and planted with soybeans and corn.
After summer, the tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers and pumpkins that Wang Zhong planted earlier began to bear fruit one after another, and the leeks and green onions were ready to eat early.
Wang Zhong also made a special trip to make some side dishes in the yard, with green leeks planted in them.
Basically every few days, Wang Zhong carries baskets full of vegetables to the county to sell. Since the land was just allocated this year, some villagers did not consider growing vegetables. Some did not grow much, and it happened to be just after the summer harvest.
, the villagers all had a lot of wheat on their hands, so occasionally some villagers would trade the newly harvested wheat with Wang Zhong for some pumpkins to eat.
Seeing Wang Zhongjiantian taking freshly picked vegetables from the field to the county to sell them for money, many villagers in the village also became interested.
Seeing that the corn, soybeans and peanuts in the field were growing better and better, the King of Heaven cut a few leeks, beat a few eggs, made scrambled eggs with leeks, and steamed a pot of rice. Just as he was about to eat, there was suddenly a call at the door.
Ma Renli's voice came.
Wang Zhong raised his eyes and saw Ma Renli standing at the door with a bottle of white wine and a smiling face.
"come in!"
"Fried eggs with leeks! You can smell the fragrance in the courtyard." Ma Renli's eyes lit up.
Wang Zhong opened the lid of the wooden barrel containing rice, and a burst of white steam, accompanied by the faint aroma of meat, instantly filled the entire room.
"What is it?" Ma Renli came over to take a look. His eyes immediately widened and he swallowed subconsciously: "Is this bacon?"
"Get your own bowl!" Wang Zhong glanced at Ma Renli. He had already used a small wooden shovel to spread the bacon, and turned the steaming rice up to cover the bacon. After a few flips, the bacon and rice were mixed together, and the bacon was mixed.
The oil that leaked out gave the rice a shiny color, and the rich aroma of meat and rice greatly stimulated Ma Renli's taste buds. The fluid in his mouth continued to secrete, and he swallowed it down again and again.
Ma Renli quickly scooped a bowl full of rice for himself. Ma Renli didn't ask Wang Zhong where the rice came from. He immediately took big gulps into his mouth regardless of how hot it was. The already fragrant rice still contained a hint of...
The unique salty and incense aroma of bacon. Ma Renli was so excited that he almost shed tears after not eating such good food in half a year.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Zhong opened the bottle of Laobaigan and poured a bowl for himself and Ma Renli: "What do you want from me?"
Ma Renli picked up the rice for a moment, chewed the food in his mouth quickly, and swallowed it into his stomach: "I have something to do. Come on, let's have a bowl first." As he said this, he picked up the wine bowl and started drinking.
The charming smile on his face.
Just like Ma Renli, if he had waited another seven or eight years, he would have definitely been a traitor.
The two held a bowl and drank it all in one gulp. "Tell me, what is going on?"
While talking, Wang Zhong picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with chives and took a big mouthful of rice.
Ma Renli smiled again and said, "There are only four people in our mutual aid group. I just want to ask if we can add one more!"
"One more? You mean Qiao Yue?" Ma Renli raised his butt, and Wang Zhong knew what he was doing.
"Hehehehe!" Ma Renli chuckled, shyly.
Wang Zhong asked: "Isn't Qiao Yue in the same group as Niu DaDa?"
Except for Wang Zhong's group at the beginning, the mutual aid groups formed by other people in the village were basically divided according to where they lived, and neighbors formed a group.
"I'm just asking, asking!" Ma Renli said.
"Come on, the little Jiujiu in your heart is like no one knows." Wang Zhong shook his head and said: "As the saying goes, a bitch is ruthless and an actor is ruthless. You have read so many books, haven't you heard of this?
reason?"
As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, the voices of three monkeys suddenly came from the courtyard: "Brother Big Chong! Brother Chong!"
"It's in the house!" As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, the three monkeys had already arrived at the door.
"Ma Renli, why are you here?" The three monkeys were a little surprised to see Ma Renli.
"Renyi!" Ma Renli greeted the three monkeys with a smile.
"Don't worry about him for now, Three Monkeys, what do you want from me?" Wang Zhong asked directly.
The three monkeys sat on the round stool and said with a smile: "Brother Big Chong, Sister Jinhua also wants to join our mutual aid group. I will come over and ask you soon."
"Brother Big Chong, don't forget that Sister Jinhua is a woman, but she works hard and is much better than some people!" The three monkeys hurriedly said good things for Sister Jinhua, and when they said this, they did not forget to glance at Ma Renli,
His eyes were full of disdain.
Ma Renli curled his lips, did not dare to say anything, and continued to eat with his head buried.
Wang Zhongdao: "No problem, it's really not easy for Jinhua Sister-in-law to be a widow. We have a lot of labor to organize, so adding another Jinhua Sister-in-law is no problem."
The three monkeys suddenly smiled with a new smile: "Thank you, Brother Chong!"
"Why are you so polite? Have you eaten? If not, let's have some together."
The three monkeys looked at the fragrant scrambled eggs with leeks and rice, swallowed a few times, shook their heads and said: "No, no, no, I've eaten it. You guys eat slowly, I have to tell Sister Jinhua the good news quickly!"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to run away.
"Sister-in-law Jinhua is fine, but what about Qiao Yue?" Ma Renli couldn't wait to ask as soon as the three monkeys left.
"It's okay to join if you want, but let me tell you first. I won't spoil her like Niu Dadan. She must complete the tasks assigned to her. If she can do it, I welcome her to join our mutual aid group.
.”
In fact, Qiao Yue had come to see Wang Zhong before Ma Renli arrived, but after Wang Zhong stated his conditions, Qiao Yue hesitated.
Although Niu Dangdao is a bit rough, she knows how to cherish the beauty and cherish the beauty. She has done a lot of hard work for her. But looking at Wang Zhong's attitude, if Qiao Yue comes to Wang Zhong's mutual aid group, I am afraid that many of the tasks will have to be done in the future.
Qiao Yue did it herself.
"Okay! As long as you say this!" Ma Renli also immediately beamed with a smile on his face. He took the initiative to pour wine for Wang Zhong and toasted Wang Zhong with another bowl.
It's a pity that Ma Renli is destined to be in vain this time. With Qiao Yue's temperament of being lazy and slippery, how could he possibly agree? Ma Renli can help Qiao Yue just like Niu Dadan, but the key is that Ma Renli is also a handyman.
He has no strength and knows nothing about farm work. He is still learning from behind Wang Zhong and others. He is also weak and has no strength.
Sure enough, after that incident, Ma Renli never mentioned the matter again.
Autumn is approaching, and the corn, peanuts, and soybeans in the fields are almost at harvest time.
Suddenly there was a commotion in the county for a return group.
Zhou Yihu came back from a meeting in the county. He called everyone over to the meeting with a serious face. He said that there were returning groups in many places in the county. These returning groups did not dare to attack the county. They only picked places like Maixiang Village that were a little far away from the county.
