Chapter Seventy-Seven: Building the Road (Seeking Collection)

The people in the village learned that bamboo could also be sold for money, and this time the enthusiasm was much higher, and the old village chief only asked a few people to help, but who knew that every household had someone to participate. According to the calculation of two pieces and one piece, this batch of bamboo is more than 30,000 pieces, and each family has several hundred pieces.

Chu Jiaqiang also specially checked the price of Nanzhu and found that Nanzhu was even more expensive. A centimeter in diameter costs five yuan a tree, and such a small bamboo, people may have to uproot the kind and prepare it for planting. The stem thickness is five centimeters and ten pieces, ten centimeters are 22 to 25, and twelve centimeters are calculated by the ton, 950 a ton.

Telling the old village chief the news, the old village chief was suddenly shocked, obviously he didn't expect that the spear bamboo that he usually ignored was so expensive, and the bamboo he had always valued became a cheap commodity.

"Jiaqiang, what advice do you have in mind, say it!" The old village chief said.

Chu Jiaqiang pondered for a while and said: "I asked Uncle Yan about this price, and he said that there is actually this price, but now there are too many spear bamboos, and there is a bit of a bad market." If you want to sell well, it's best to pick high-quality chops, especially the ones we cut back to drain, and he can also buy them at 950 a ton. I think of it this way, we have to do three things. ”

"Those three?" The old village chief couldn't help asking.

"First mobilize everyone to repair the road as soon as possible, and then continue to cut down some bamboo. The road must be repaired first, and the road in our village cannot enter the big car, which is very troublesome. The bamboo forest on our bamboo mountain is too dense, which is not conducive to the success of bamboo. There are more and more old bamboos, which affects the growth of new bamboos, which will cause the aging of bamboos on the bamboo mountain, and it will appear green and yellow. After that, we had to plant spear bamboo in that clearing. Chu Jiaqiang analyzed reasonably.

The old village chief immediately applauded, and asked everyone to quickly count the number of light bamboos, and then discussed the issue on the spot. When everyone heard this, they were all beaten with chicken blood, and they felt that their own bamboo was even more expensive. This time, there was no opposition to the road construction. The old village chief immediately decided to start overhauling the road tomorrow.

In the evening, the old village chief went to Chu Jiaqiang's house again and made a plan, if Chu Jiaqiang came up with an idea. From now on, Zhushan will also be managed on a large scale.

Early the next morning, a large group of people carrying hoes and other tools gathered in the valley ping, the old village chief did not talk nonsense, waved his big hand, and led everyone to start working. After deciding to build the road yesterday afternoon, he had already instructed his son to unload truckloads of stone powder on the road.

The old village chief divided the personnel into three teams, the first team was led by himself, and was responsible for the laying of the canal and the water pipe.

The second team was led by Old Man Li and was responsible for the repair of the upper and lower sides of the road. For example, it is necessary to reinforce areas prone to collapse with stones. Old man Li knew that the village was building roads, and no matter how thick-skinned he was, he was embarrassed to play chess with Chu Jiaqiang.

The third team originally wanted Chu Jiaqiang to lead the team, but Chu Jiaqiang was unwilling and pushed it to an old man. Responsible for spreading the stone powder, evenly spreading it on the ground, and waiting for the stone to be compacted.

In order to avoid flooding the road as much as possible, the old village chief prepared to set up a bamboo pipe every 20 meters.

"You two measure the length and make a mark. The six of you are digging the pavement where they are marking, taking care to be level with the bottom of the canal. The two of you will carry the bamboo tube and put it down, and the rest will dredge the original canal. The old village chief gave the order in an orderly manner.

Chu Jiaqiang said: "It's better not to be level with the bottom of the canal, it's better to be a little higher." ”

Everyone looked over and asked something. Old man Li replied for Chu Jiaqiang: "There is a lot of mud and sand at the bottom, and it is easy to block the bamboo tube. ”

The old village chief patted his head: "That's right, that's right!" To be three to five centimeters taller. ”

After the work was divided, everyone worked in full swing, which was quite the taste of large-scale production back then. Wan Lao and others also came to join in the fun, but everyone didn't let him help, after all, people are not in good health, and with their age, they can't do this kind of rough work. Wan Lao and Yan Lao had to help mention the tea and divide some cigarettes and the like.

"Haha! I haven't seen this kind of collective work for a long time, but now I relive it, and it has a different taste. Looking back on the past, there were both pain and joy! Wan Lao said with a sigh.

"Huh! It's not, back then, we worked together, ate together, that scene, hehe! Yan Lao also reminisced about the past.

Everyone was very good, and soon repaired the biggest bend of this road, which is actually a 90-degree bend. But if the road is too small, it will seem very curved, and even the tractor has to drive carefully.

Old man Li was a little difficult to do, so he immediately discussed with the old village chief: "How do you think this bend can be solved?" The big car will definitely not be able to drive, and it will not be able to turn around. ”

The old village chief took two puffs of cigarette and said, "I have no choice, I have to discuss it with that kid Shengxiao." Replace the piece of land above him, then hoe it down, and change it to the road surface. It turned out that this pavement was changed to his name, and this was the only way. ”

"In this way, people may have to suffer, after all, the road surface is thin, and there is a big rock underneath, and the thickness of the soil is very small, so it is not easy to grow things." Old man Li said.

"It's okay, just give him some compensation in the village." This is not difficult for the old village chief, as the head of a village, this work is still very easy, anyway, it will not let the people in his village suffer.

Chu Shengxiao also agreed very happily, in fact, that piece of land is a yellow mud land, there are no nutrients, even if you grow sweet potatoes, the harvest is not good, it is better to sell a favor to the village chief.

Chu Jiaqiang looked at some places where the collapse was more serious, and suggested to the old village chief that it was best to use cement and ashlar to build it, without cement, it was useless to just pile up stones.

The old village chief immediately instructed Chu Shengyi to pull half a cart of cement back, and then draw out the three people to make a paste.

Chu Shengyi pulled the cement back, and then pulled a large boulder behind him and rolled it back and forth. The stone stone is one meter in diameter, and it should weigh thousands of catties, and I don't know where the old village chief found it. The stone powder that hit the road was crushed several times and completely compacted. The blue pavement is very smooth and looks very comfortable, just like an asphalt road.

More than 400 meters were repaired in one morning, and a banquet was held at the old village chief's house at noon. Several women in the village have cooked in a big pot, and there are too many people, most of them have eaten vegetables, and then they sit under the big tree at the door and eat, the scene is very lively.

Because they still had to work in the afternoon, they didn't drink. Chu Jiaqiang had already chilled several large watermelons and killed them after the meal to make everyone cool and cool.

The three- or four-kilometer road was completed in four days, and it was repaired to the junction with Xiangzhu Village. The people of Xiangzhu Village are strange, when did this Chujiazhai become so bold? It's such a big investment.

Xiangzhu Village is a large village, divided into four brigades, among which Captain Zhang of the fourth brigade at the junction came over to inquire about the news. He first gave the old village chief a cigarette: "Uncle Chu, what a lot of courage!" Is there a way to develop in the village? ”

The old village chief smiled: "There is nothing that is not developed, it is more convenient to repair the road, and this time there are noble donations, hehe!" ”

The old village chief was very happy, Xiangzhu Village didn't look down on their poor villages before, but now they were surprised, and they were in a good mood.
