Chapter 35: Catching the Yellow Eel

After contracting the reservoir, Zhang Tao discussed with his mother how to renovate the reservoir, the reservoir at this time because of the abundant rain during this time, so the water in it rose a lot, and now it is not appropriate to divide the reservoir into several pieces, and it is easy for other people to find out. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

So they didn't plan to move the reservoir, but planned to make use of the surrounding wasteland, barren mountains and paddy fields, Zhang Tao's opinion was to build a shed to raise chickens, pigs, and fruit trees, and then the family moved there to live. This is Zhang Tao's opinion, there are also ready-made people who build sheds, Zhang Tao's sister-in-law is a nearby big worker, who specializes in building houses for people as craftsmen, and it will be good to give him the money to start work at that time.

Zhang Cuihua was also very tempted by Zhang Tao's suggestion, but before deciding, she still wrote a registered letter to Zhang Tao's father, telling her about the situation of the family's contracted reservoir. Zheng Hu quickly replied to the letter, he worked in the south, saw the breeding industry there, and was very supportive of Zhang Cuihua's decision, and said some of his own suggestions and ideas, and finally he also told Zhang Cuihua that his work in Shenzhen was good, and his salary had risen by two hundred, and now it was four hundred a month. After becoming a regular, the salary is higher, and at that time you should be able to get 600, let Zhang Cuihua not worry about money, just let it go, and don't get tired and treat yourself and her children badly.

Zhang Cuihua was in a very good mood after receiving this letter, and her face was full of smiles for several days. Zheng Hu's salary has risen, which means that his family's income will also rise in the future, and their family has saved a small amount of money for the Chinese New Year, so the family's economy will not be tense to deal with these things.

Half a month has passed after the two of them have communicated letters, Zhang Tao's life in the school is still so bad and not bad, and the teacher in the class will no longer care about him when he sees Zhang Tao going to school honestly, so he can do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't make trouble with the school in the class.

However, what these teachers didn't expect was that although Zhang Tao didn't move, the atmosphere in Zhang Tao's class changed a lot, and the relationship between the classmates was much better, and they became united. What's more important is that those students who encounter problems they don't understand in learning come to Zhang Tao, Zhang Tao never refuses, men and women alike. This has made the learning atmosphere in the class much better, and the students' grades are changing in a way that is not visible.

At this time, Zhang Tao finally found out the guy who interjected during the principal's speech last time, and it turned out to be a more active guy in the class. That guy's name is Lu Gui, he likes to show more, but he is not very bold, and he often imitates the appearance of others or some characters on TV in the class, and then makes everyone in the class laugh with him. Zhang Tao felt that he was underestimating this guy a little, this guy dared to interject when the principal was in a meeting and didn't let people notice it, not only because he was in the limelight, but he couldn't do it without a little wit.

What exposed him was a plastic notebook with a lot of popular songs copied on it. At this time, it is not easy for students to learn a pop song, they all copy the lyrics of their favorite songs in a notebook first, and then take them out and sing them when they have nothing to do. Zhang Tao saw the song "Eggs Under the Red Flag" in this guy's lyric book, as well as "Nothing" and "Fake Monk" or something.

Zhang Tao didn't say anything after knowing about this, if he knew, he wouldn't report it to the principal or anything, no matter what benefits it would be for him to report this thing, he would feel quite embarrassed to make a small report to a hairy child with his own thirties soul. In fact, Zhang Tao is even more strange that this guy's family is not very good, how can there be these things? Later, he learned that this notebook was picked up by Lu Gui outside, not from their school.

And at Zhang Tao's house, after his mother received a reply from Zhang Tao's father Zheng Hu, Zhang Cuihua immediately became busy, everything must be busy before spring sowing, otherwise when spring sowing arrives, her family will become even busier. Anyway, she doesn't need to care too much about things at home, and several children will cook and do their own housework, which saves her a lot of things.

Zhang Tao's sister-in-law was responsible for the construction of the shed, and even Zhang Tao's aunt and his grandfather came to help, plus invited a few people from the village, and when the spring sowing began, several large-scale pig sheds and places where chickens and ducks were kept were repaired, and two living sheds were also repaired, and wires were connected from the village.

Only part of the money was paid for the building materials, and the rest will be given to those who sell materials after a while, these are all guarantees for the face of Zhang Tao's brother-in-law, he does this piece, and he is very familiar with those who sell materials. The rest of the money bought two pigs and more than 200 chickens and ducks, and the rest of the money was left for pesticide and fertilizer seeds sown in the spring. These are actually completely beyond Zhang Tao's original plan, but these are Zheng Hu's suggestions, compared to it, Zhang Cuihua still believes in her husband a little more, after all, no matter how smart her son is, his age and knowledge are still there.

Originally, she was going to raise ten pigs at a time in one step, but Zhang Tao vetoed it, they are now just getting started with everything, and they have to explore everything, and it is easy to get out of the situation if it is so big at one time, so the little pig only bought two, which is the same as Zhang Tao's previous plan. When the sow gives birth, it's good not to sell it all and keep it for yourself, so that they have half a year of buffer time to explore. As soon as Zhang Cuihua heard this, she felt that this suggestion was good, so she did what Zhang Tao said, which also made her not have to be so nervous about the money in hand. But by this time, the little money saved at the end of last year had almost been spent.

The people in the village don't have any special feelings about Zhang Tao's actions, most of them see it as if it was lively, but the captain and the accountant were a little stunned after seeing Zhang Cuihua's actions, no wonder she wanted to extend the contract time, and it would cost a lot of money to build a shed, it seemed that Zhang Cuihua was ready to take care of this reservoir, but when they thought of the evil door of the reservoir, they couldn't help but shake their heads, it was a loss-making business, and it was useless to toss it.

After everything is done, the surrounding households have begun to enter the spring ploughing time, first turn over all the paddy fields, and then soak them in water, and then turn them a second time. At this time, the rice seedling field should start to prepare, leave a few paddy fields, and then tidy up and divide into several seedbeds, the seedbeds should be higher than the water surface, and the paddy fields should also store water for a long time. Sprinkle all the rice seeds that have germinated at home, then pat them into the soil with a broom, and then cover them with plastic film to keep them warm, and wait for the seedlings to grow.

At this time, the rural seedling throwing technology and the seedling transplanting technology have not been promoted, and everyone still uses the traditional seedbed seedling raising method to plant rice. Around the time of the Qingming Festival, the rice fields in front of the whole village were all turned over, and the smell of mud could be smelled everywhere, and the swallows also came back from the south at this time, and began to peck at the mud from the paddy fields to find a place to build a nest.

It was another Saturday, and there was no class in the afternoon, so Zhang Tao was sitting at home after filling in his homework in a hurry and watching two swallows nest under the eaves of his house. At this time, people were very welcoming to swallows to build their nests under their own eaves, and thought that swallows would only build their nests when they were looking for rich and noble families. In order to make it easier for swallows to build their nests, many people will also nail a few wooden strips under the eaves.

The wooden strip of Zhang Tao's house was nailed by Zhang Tao, and a tile was built in the middle to facilitate the swallows to build their nests. In the past, few swallows came to his house, so he made such a play, in order to please the lottery, and also for fun. A few days after nailing the wooden strips, two swallows were finally attracted to come, which made Daniel Zhang and Zhang Yan very happy, and Zhang Cuihua became even better when she saw it.

These are also only at this time, a few years later, the people in the village will build bungalows and build new houses, and then they will become disgusted with swallows again, because after the swallows build a nest, the little swallows will often in the ground, and make the room dirty, and no one cares whether the swallows will bring good luck or anything when they enter the house, so they will drive away the swallows from the house.

"Zhang Tao! Is Zhang Tao at home? At this time, Wang Zhongqiu's voice came out outside, interrupting Zhang Tao's train of thought of looking up at the swallows to build a nest. Zhang Tao frowned, Wang Zhongqiu, this guy was like frost for a long time after his mother confiscated the air gun, and today's state seems to have changed a little differently, and there is still a little excitement in his tone.

"You're at home, do you still have kerosene at home, let's go catch yellow eels together at night, okay?" After entering the room, he saw Zhang Tao sitting there in a daze, Wang Zhongqiu said to Zhang Tao excitedly, his eyes were beating with a look of eagerness, as if he had found a fun trick again.

Catching fish at night? As soon as Wang Zhongqiu said it, Zhang Tao's memory was immediately pulled away, it was a long time ago, if it wasn't for Wang Zhongqiu to find it, Zhang Tao would have almost forgotten that there was still this thing to play at this time. At this time, all the paddy fields outside were plowed and then water was released. The loach eel that was originally hidden in the mud for the winter, will all run out at night, foraging for food, wandering and wandering, it is the best time to catch them, Zhang Tao used to be a master of playing this, at this time of year can catch a lot of loaches and eels, adding some outer blocks to his family.

Wang Zhongqiu went to Zhang Tao's house to ask if there was kerosene, because they used a cotton ball with wire to tie a cotton ball to catch fish at night, and then dipped it in kerosene as a torch, this kind of light is much clearer than using a flashlight, and the range is also large. In fact, some people directly use the miner's lamp used by the miners in the coal mine, which is stronger than the ordinary flashlight, but the range of light is not as wide as the torch.
