【Chapter 095】 Breaking ground
Zhang Zhenguang's invitation to his master to the pig farm was like a splash of water dripping into Xiaojing Lake, which disappeared in a blink of an eye without causing any waves.
As for when the pig farm will break ground, the master will also be present to cast spells, and then Zhang Zhenguang only needs to bring tribute and carry out the corresponding sacrificial activities according to the rules.
Zhang Zhenguang is moving fast here, and Feng Jian's construction company is not inefficient, and two days later, Feng Jian found Zhang Zhenguang and Liu Rui with renderings and design drawings.
After looking at the drawings and listening to Feng Jian's introduction, Liu Rui couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was not by chance that Feng Jian's construction company could be prosperous in the county.
In the whole design drawing, the planning of each functional area is quite clear, and the layout of pipelines and culverts is also quite reasonable, taking into account some specific requirements of the pig house to the greatest extent. Although Liu Rui had not been in contact with construction before, nor had he participated in the construction and management of large-scale pig farms, Liu Rui already had a clear understanding of Feng Jian's company strength based on the renderings and design drawings alone.
After all, in the past few months, Liu Rui has also read a lot of information and has an understanding of some parameters of the pig farm. Feng Jian's design plan not only took into account the construction of the first phase of the project, but also the future expansion of the pig farm. If you want to expand the pig farm in the future, you only need to build according to the drawings.
As for Zhang Zhenguang, it was even more straightforward, he waved his hand and said to Feng Jian: "Since you kid made it, then there is no problem!" ”
Zhang Zhenguang was too lazy to grind, and after negotiating the project payment with Feng Jian, he paid one-third of the advance payment, asking Feng Jian to arrange for the building materials to enter the site as soon as possible, and prepare to start construction in Liangchen Jiyue.
Feng Jian is also a simple person, after getting the advance payment, he immediately took out his Nokia 3310 and notified his employees to start pulling building materials to the construction site.
The price of a mobile phone is actually not expensive now, but the two-way charge of eight cents per minute still discourages many people. Feng Jian's free appearance with his mobile phone is enough to show that his business is doing well.
………… Two more days passed like this, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for the master to start construction for Zhang Zhenguang, Liu Rui and his parents came to the construction site together after finishing their family affairs early in the morning.
In just two days, a huge change has taken place.
The blue-gray limestone, neatly arranged red bricks, stacks of cement covered with tarpaulins, and bundles of steel bars set off the otherwise desolate highlands a little messy. In the past two days, Zhang Zhenguang has asked someone to pull the wires to the construction site, where he can cut steel bars, start vibrating rods, and pour concrete frames after the construction starts in the future.
On the high ground, a horizontal and vertical white line has been drawn with lime, and after the ritual is over, the workers will dig down the white line to dig out the level foundation.
In the center of the field, a table enshrined chickens and ducks, various fruits and snacks, and a large pig's head, a large rooster tied to the legs of the table, and a black broken umbrella on top of the table.
Liu Rui has seen such scenes since he was a child, but he never knew what the meaning of these things was?
"Dad, what do these things mean?" Seeing that it was not yet time for construction, Liu Rui quietly asked his father.
"Those tributes are naturally used to sacrifice the land lord, after all, today's groundbreaking will inevitably disturb his old man's house; The black umbrella has the meaning of sheltering from the wind and rain, mainly in the hope that everything will go smoothly in the process of construction. After all, Liu Jiahong is a little old and understands a lot of things, and continued: "The rooster belongs to fire, which can drive away evil spirits, and raising one until the house is built can prevent some dirty things from coming in." ”
Liu Rui received a materialist education in school, and originally did not believe in these things, but the old people in the family believed it, so Liu Rui naturally had no position against it. Besides, these things can be passed down for thousands of years, and there is always a certain reason for them.
Existence is reasonable!
At eight forty in the morning, the deer power immortal who appeared a few days ago appeared on the construction site again, this time he did not take a compass, but only a peachwood sword, ready to start.
Last time, Liu Rui only saw the situation at the end of the whole process, but this time he wanted to take a closer look, the entire Luli Daxian was one hundred and eight yuan as soon as he appeared, what kind of ability did he have?
I saw Luli Daxian holding a peachwood sword, stringing a few pieces of yellow paper with a ghost drawing, and after lighting it, it kept shaking on top of a bowl of water and wine, and there were words in his mouth.
Liu Rui desperately pricked up his ears, trying to hear what he was reading?
It's a pity that Luli Daxian spoke too fast, and his pronunciation was also vague, and after listening to it for several minutes, Liu Rui couldn't hear it at all. The words read by Luli Daxian include Mandarin, local dialect, and even some Hakka, which is really a bit of a hodgepodge.
After all the rune papers were burned to ashes and fell into the large bowl containing the wine, Luli Daxian used a peachwood sword to stir it in the bowl a few times, and then served it and drank it.
Liu Rui was made his hairs stand on end by Luli Daxian's movements, and goosebumps rose.
Fortunately, Luli Daisen didn't really drink the wine, and then he spewed out towards the sky, forming a light mist in the sky, which was also a bit interesting.
Next, Luli Daxian was dancing the peachwood sword, walking back and forth on the construction site, and the spells in his mouth became more and more high-pitched, and began to enter the role.
After a few minutes, Luli Daxian held a peachwood sword in his hand and shouted: "Taishang Laojun has a will, and the auspicious time has come!" ”
Liu Rui finally understood the only sentence.
Zhang Zhenguang, who had been waiting on the side for a long time, had a quick eye, grabbed the shovel and shoveled down the area drawn by the ground baseline; Zhang Zhenzu lit the firecrackers that had been prepared with cigarette butts and threw them into the construction site.
For a while, the deafening sound of firecrackers sounded, which also indicated that the groundbreaking ceremony of the pig farm was over and began to enter the construction period.
When the smoke gradually dissipated, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder, Liu Rui saw through the hazy smoke that the rooster had become a little hysterical. It kept jumping up and down, flapping its wings, trying to break free from the thick hemp rope on its feet. It's a pity that the hemp rope has firmly tied its feet, even if it has been frightened by the sudden sound of firecrackers, there is no way to escape.
Zhang Zhenguang, as the owner, had already excavated the first shovel of soil, and the workers of Feng Jian's company, relatives and friends invited by the Zhang family and the Liu family all took their own tools and began to excavate within the ground baseline very tacitly.
In the countryside, building a house and digging the foundation can be regarded as a very important thing, so it is necessary to do a big job. Although the pig farm was contracted to Feng Jian's construction company, Zhang Zhenguang still decided to ask relatives and friends to help, and then eat and drink in the evening, which can be regarded as a way to celebrate.
Dozens of strong laborers, wielding pickaxes, shovels and steel drills, were working in a small area, and a sense of enthusiasm began to fill the air, stimulating the people around them to feel a little bloody.
Standing aside and watching for a while, Liu Rui couldn't hold back any longer, grabbed a pickaxe and joined the ranks of labor.
In the past, relatives and friends built houses and dug foundations, but Liu Rui, who was still a minor, was weak and weak, and often could only be a spectator on the sidelines and could not participate in it.
In the countryside, there is an unwritten rule that a guy who can carry a cross pick to dig the foundation is considered an adult, and he will be recognized by others.
Liu Rui joined the team of digging the foundation, and no one was surprised, it seemed that everyone took it for granted. For many people in Liangcun, everything Liu Rui has done in the past six months has proved that he has become a man, and this circle has accommodated him.
Heavy pickaxes flew through the air, and large chunks of dirt were dug up before being shoveled away by shovels and thrown outside the foundation. Listening to the rhythmic shouting in his ears and feeling the heat coming out of his body, Liu Rui felt more and more energetic, and he liked this kind of hot labor scene a little.
According to my father, when I was still in the commune period, I would often organize a general battle of thousands of people and tens of thousands of people to build water conservancy, reservoirs, and terraces, which was really a big scene. Although Liu Rui has not seen it, it can be imagined that the situation of thousands of people working together must be the most shocking.
Aside from some factors, although there was some material scarcity in that era, people's spiritual level must have been very fulfilling, unlike now, when many young people have lost their direction and purpose in life.
Digging the foundation may seem like a rough job, but in fact, the technical content is not low.
The first key factor of a house is the foundation, the foundation is unstable, which means that the house is not reliable, once a little wind and rain, it is easy to have tilting, wall cracking and other quality accidents.
Therefore, the construction of the foundation needs to be carefully crafted, and the slightest sloppiness must not be done!
The technician of Feng Jian Company reminded Liu Rui and others with the vertical line that when digging the foundation, you can't always dig with your head down, you have to follow the line, and you must not dig crookedly. In addition, after the foundation trench is almost dug, you have to take a small shovel to slowly smooth out some edges and corners, so that the limestone can be more solid and stable when pouring it next.
Liu Rui, who was working hard in the crowd, although his hands were a little sore and his palms were a little hot, he liked this kind of lively scene a little in his heart.
As the saying goes, there is a lot of strength in numbers, and with the guidance of the technicians of the construction company, the progress of everyone's excavation is quite fast, which is a bit beyond Liu Rui's imagination.
With the concerted efforts of dozens of people, all the foundations of the first phase of the pig farm were dug in one morning, and the villagers worked together to complete the two biogas digesters at the bottom of the slope.
Looking back at the smooth and uniform foundation ditches, as well as the earth and stone piles piled up next to him like a small hill, Liu Rui was really a little frightened.
Liu Rui didn't expect that once dozens of strong guys entered the state, the energy that burst out was really a bit terrifying.
According to the custom of Liang Village, the day of digging the foundation is probably just to do the work of digging the foundation, so everyone finished work early and met with relatives and friends to drink in the Liu family compound at night.
In any case, the excavation of the foundation means that the pig farm has begun to enter the construction period in full swing!
