Chapter 51 Cotton Machine

After collecting the book, Tagawa laid paper and polished ink, ready to write Spring Festival couplets. At this time, the phone rang, and it looked like it was from the dormitory, it must be Zheng Hongcheng. In order to facilitate contact, Tian Chuan gave him a mobile phone, but the boss was never willing to use it, and used the IC card phone in the dormitory every time he called.

Zheng Hongcheng called to say that the picking group was about the picking group, tomorrow is Saturday, the new batch of picking groups has been organized, and they will set off at half past seven tomorrow morning. Zheng Hongcheng's two tutoring employers will participate, all of them are mother and son, and of course he himself will go with the group.

Tian Chuan has been so busy these days that he completely left the picking behind, but fortunately found Zheng Hongcheng as a helper. He hurriedly said that he would return with the group early tomorrow morning.

Hanging up Zheng Hongcheng's phone, he hurriedly called his father and asked about the preparation for picking. Tian Dad is much more reliable than Tian Chuan, saying that everything is ready, and Tian Chuan is relieved.

continued to finish writing the Spring Festival couplets needed in his home and hometown in the capital, it was not too early, he stopped exercising, washed and slept.

After going to bed, I remembered that I should go to Xu Jing's IKEA to send some New Year's goods, but not tomorrow, so I have to go again the day after tomorrow. Then I thought of Xiaohui again, and I couldn't help but feel bitter in my heart, I was obviously thinking about Xiaohui, why did I fall in love with Xu Jingyi again?

I still have to go to the old sea a year ago, and I don't take a look at Xiaohui, which is always concerned in my heart.

I didn't sleep well all night, and in the morning Tagawa came to the meeting point with two panda eyes. It's almost the New Year, it's always fun to go out to play, and before I get in the car, many people in the group are already familiar with each other and chatting lively. The children were even more chattering.

It may be that there are more people on holiday, and both buses are full today. Listening to Zheng Hongcheng, there are still many people who have not been able to catch up with this wave because they signed up late, and some people have already reported the New Year's group on the first day of the first month and the sixth day of the first month.

The bus arrives at 9 a.m. and is still in the same order as last tour, picking and finally shopping. Unlike last time, Tagawa added a visit to the old rural museum of his old house to his morning itinerary, filling up the tour that was not very rich.

To Tagawa's surprise, everyone was generally very interested in this old rural museum, and they kept asking questions, which almost affected the afternoon activities.

Tagawa was very happy about this, and he decided to make this museum better, but his yard was too small, which limited the development of the museum.

After seeing off the tourists, Tagawa returned home, and after unloading the contents of the car, he locked himself in a small study and pondered the direction of the museum's development. After thinking about it, he felt that if he wanted to build a museum open to the outside world, he would not have the energy to take care of it at all, so it would be better to support the village to do this project, and in the future, he might be able to make a feature and promote the economic development of the village.

A few years ago, the brigade headquarters in the village was contracted by Li Zhenguang of the village to open a shoe factory. In the past two years, it has been hit by the southern shoe factory, and it has been half-dead, but it can be considered to be converted into a museum.

It's too early to do so, wait for a few more groups of tourists to see how they react before deciding. If you decide to do it, you will have to wait until the spring to start construction.

You can take the time to write the introduction of the museum first, and then find a time to talk to the village leaders about the possibility of developing tourism.

After thinking about this, Tian's mother had already come to ask Tian Chuan for dinner. During the meal, Tian Chuan told his parents about the idea of the museum, and Tian Chuan was worried that the museum would not make money, Tian Chuan said: "The museum can only increase the flow of visitors to the village and promote the development of the village's economy, and it is difficult to make a profit on its own." I wanted to donate money to the village, but I didn't think about making money. ”

Mom and Dad had already thought about it, and when they saw Tian Chuan say this, they had no opinion. They know that it never hurts to contribute to the development of the village and increase their influence in the village.

After dinner, I discussed the New Year with my parents, but my parents didn't have any ideas, how to live and how to live, not to mention running chicken farms and greenhouses, and they couldn't leave. This year, the family is rich, so you can consider buying more fireworks to set off and have a good time.

In fact, Tian Chuan didn't think about the New Year, he just wanted to take a day to take his family to buy a few clothes, go shopping, and prepare more delicious food, and it was almost the same. As the saying goes, one generation looks at food, the second generation sees through, and the third generation looks at culture.

After discussing with my parents, I decided that on the 29th, I would take my sister's family and go shopping in Jinshi.

At this time, Tian's mother suddenly said: "Xiaochuan, after you were admitted to university, you promised to invite your relatives to dinner during the Chinese New Year, and now it's time to book a date." Tian's father also chimed in: "Yes, yes, I want to treat everyone well." ”

Tian Chuan said: "It's set on the eighth day of the new year, and there may be a picking group on the sixth day of the new year." By then, the relatives were almost all moving around, and they all had time. ”

The matter was almost discussed, and Tian Chuan told his parents that he would have to go out tomorrow, to Yongyang and Jiuhai, and that he might not be back until twenty-seven or twenty-eight. Tian's father sighed: "Xiaochuan, you have earned a lot of money this year, but you are too busy to stay at home during the New Year." Tagawa said, "This time it's not about business, it's about visiting two friends." ”

In the end, Tagawa said to his father: "Dad, please help me think about it, it turns out that our production and lifestyle here are based on different themes, and I will use them when I make a museum in the future." As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper on which were the themes of the museum that came out before dinner, including:

The furnishings in the house.

Supplies for cooking and making tea.

Arrangement in the yard.

adobe houses.

Labor all year round.

The content and methods of farming.

Tools.

Raising and servitude of livestock, harnesses.

Wheat harvest and autumn harvest.

Clothing.

Children's games.

Mills and mills.

Production team and package production to households.

He instructed his father: "Don't look at the topic, don't be in a hurry, just take it slowly, just take a break." Also, see if you can collect some old items as much as possible. ”

Tian's father turned out to be a salesman, and he was a well-informed person in the village, so he completely understood what his son meant, so he nodded and agreed.

The next day, Tagawa set off from home early in the morning and went to Xu Jing's house first, and delivered a case of wine, half a sheep, a seafood gift box composed of prawns, king crab, scallops and snow leaf crab, and two large tama fish (flounder). In addition, Tagawa specially gave Xu Jingyi a Longines watch and a set of cosmetics from France.

The Xu family was very enthusiastic about Tian Chuan and insisted on keeping him for lunch. Tian Chuan resolutely resigned on the grounds that he still had to go to Yongyang and Jin City to visit several teachers and friends. After coming out of Xu's house, Tian Chuan went to visit Mr. Zhou and several leaders of the alumni association, and drove to Jiuhai in the afternoon.

Tian Chuan came to Jiuhai this time and brought some New Year's goods to the samurai, and the focus was of course to visit Xiaohui. He brought snacks and toys to each of Xiaohui's three younger siblings, and gave Xiaohui a watch, an American TV series CD, and extracurricular books.

He had already learned on the phone that Xiaohui did well in the final exam, with 100 algebra, 95 in geometry, 98 in physics, 96 in English, 88 in Chinese, 80 in politics, and a total score of 557, ranking second in the school. According to this result, there is a great hope of being admitted to Jiuhai County No. 1 Middle School in the high school entrance examination.

Tian Chuan is not satisfied with this, in his opinion, mathematics and physics should not lose points, language and politics can be improved, he came to Xiaohui's house this time, is to help her improve these aspects. I have to let Xiaohui be admitted to a good university to facilitate future interactions.

When Tian Chuan arrived at the Wu family, it was already close to evening, and after hurriedly distributing the gifts, Wu Hongjian beckoned Tian Chuan to eat. After the meal, Tian Chuan and Wu Hongjian talked about the sales of wire stripping machines and dismantling machines, Wu Hongjian said that these two machines are selling well this year, but the market is close to saturation, and the future sales prospects are not optimistic. Tian Chuan's original intention of making these two machines was to help Wu Hongjian improve efficiency, and now that the cost has been recovered, of course, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

Previously, under the instruction of Tian Chuan, Jiang Jianbing had talked with Wu Hongjian about the sales of old sea agricultural machinery, Wu Hongjian was very concerned about this, and was also very optimistic about several agricultural machinery that was about to go on the market, and sold very positively, and had booked out more than ten units. After the New Year, I will go to the machinery factory to participate in operation training.

There are more local cotton growers, and the workload is very large, so Wu Hongjian suggested that Tian Chuan develop an automatic cotton picker. But Tian Chuan knew that the development of automatic cotton pickers was too difficult, the development cost was too high, and the machinery factory was not able to do it for the time being.

However, Wu Hongjian's words reminded him that now the automatic cotton picker is still a worldwide problem, the cotton planting area in the northwest is very large, and there will be a labor shortage in the cotton picking season every year, if the cotton picker is successfully developed, the profit will be an astronomical amount.

In his previous life, he knew that in another ten years or so, cotton pickers would be promoted in China. Although he doesn't know the specific principle, he has also understood what it looks like and how it works, and if you think about it carefully, you should have a good chance of success. He decided to start working on the project after the Chinese New Year.

As soon as he thought of it, he immediately picked up the phone and called Li Tao, asking him to help him contract one or two hundred acres of land no matter what, the closer to Tongzhou the better, the terrain needs to be high and the drainage is good, it can be slightly saline, and it can be used to grow cotton.

Li Tao was completely speechless at Tian Chuan's behavior, and said: "Are you kid playing with my brother, there is the capital near Tongzhou, where do you ask me to get you hundreds of acres of land to grow cotton?"

"Brother Tao, don't worry," Tian Chuan said, "The neighborhood I said is only within a hundred kilometers, but the transportation is more convenient." It is also possible to not fully contract, I am only responsible for the harvest. I used to experiment with cotton pickers. ”

Li Tao had heard of the cotton picker and knew that the difficulty of this project was not small, so he persuaded Tian Chuan: "The risk of this project is not small, you should not invest blindly." And there should be many institutions at home and abroad that are engaged in it, be careful of losing money. ”

Tian Chuan said: "I will do preliminary research, but the time is too urgent, and if I don't set the experimental field now, it will be too late this year." Anyway, it's just a few hundred acres of land, and you won't lose too much. ”

Li Tao agreed to find land, and Tian Chuan was relieved.

Tian Chuan did not live in Wu Hongjian's house, but still went to the hotel to open a room. Before leaving in the evening, Wu Hongjian asked Tian Chuan with some concern: "The last time we fought, the son-in-law of my brother said that he was going to talk to you, wouldn't he bring someone to you for revenge?"

Tian Chuan smiled: "I went there a few days ago." At that time, I was in my hometown, and he and his brother found my home from the capital. It's not about fighting, it's about really wanting to learn kung fu and improve together. ”

Wu Hongjian was still not at ease, and then asked, "Who won the battle in the end?"

Tian Chuan said: "It's not a real fight, it's a point-to-point competition, I'm better than them." ”

After saying goodbye and returning to the hotel, Tagawa repeatedly considered the possible risks of the cotton picker project, but still felt that it could be done, and roughly clarified the development ideas and entry points that night.

He plans to start a literature search immediately after the Spring Festival, and combine the experience of his previous life to design the functional principle of the cotton picker, as well as the cost-benefit analysis, and build the framework of the design and development team as soon as possible. As for the experimental field, it should be determined immediately, regardless of whether this project is done in the future, the experimental field must be built first, in case there is no cotton land to test the machine. Even if the project is stopped, it is profitable to contract a few hundred acres of land to grow cotton.

The other is to go to the United States as soon as possible, the United States John Deere is the world's leading agricultural machinery, Tagawa remembers that the best cotton picker in his previous life was produced by them. Go there to see how John Deere's cotton picker has developed, buy a prototype and come back, and your design can avoid a lot of detours.
