At 9 o'clock in the morning on February 26, 1969, Mr. Cen, Mr. Lan, Mr. Tao, the brothers of the Jia family, and more than a dozen masters invited by Mr. Cen to build a house and work came to our house.

Mr. Tao's family just came back from the provincial capital for the Chinese New Year yesterday afternoon, and he looks very good! Mr. Tao also took the initiative to follow Mr. Cen to our house to help build a house.

The builders brought in tools for building houses, such as saws, chisels, axes, planers, hammers, ink fountains, and carpentry shelves, as well as building materials such as nails of various sizes and models.

After everyone rested for a while, the masters moved the tools and materials for building the house to the work field where the house was ready to be built.

Mr. Cen and Mr. Tao are also responsible for laying out the foundation of the house and fence of the factory, and measuring and staking out the timber for the building.

In this way, the builders such as carpenters and plasterers who build the house know how to build the house and make the materials.

Mr. Cen and Mr. Tao first marked the foundations of the factory building and the fence.

Teacher Cen holds the compass, and Teacher Tao is responsible for measuring the position of the land and the ground pile.

After they pulled up the baseboard of the house, Xiaoda and I carried a bucket of lime powder and sprinkled lime powder along the baseboard.

Xiaoda and I were involved in the house for the first time, and we felt very new and fun about our work.

After we released the rectangular frames of the two houses, Mr. Cen and Mr. Tao used a tape measure to measure the pile position of the pillars of the house on the frame, and the plasterers began to dig the pile pit and lower the pile stones, ready to give the pillars for the factory and shed!

After that, Mr. Cen and Mr. Tao marked the logs with numbers and sizes, and prepared to make the timber for building the house, such as house columns, roof supports, and beams.

Mr. Tao took out a few sketches drawn with pencils from his pocket.

Then, according to the numbers on the drawings, explain to the carpenters the material specifications such as the diameter, length, and size of various processed logs, as well as the number of each material specification, as well as the basic process of processing materials

After Mr. Tao finished explaining, the carpenters began to use ink fountains on the logs to lay out wires, and began to saw wood, chisel mortise holes, etc.

That's it, everyone started to get busy!

I feel that the workers invited by Mr. Cen are all masters of building houses! Because, as soon as Mr. Tao talked about it, they all understood!

Soon the triangular brackets on the roof were erected, and there were many of them!

However, they are all exactly the same, and I find it incredible!

I said to Mr. Tao, "Mr. Tao! I know that the right sides of a triangle can be measured! And the size of the hypotenuse of the triangle should be calculated in advance, right?! How do you do the math?! ”

Teacher Tao smiled and said, "Hey! Ah Cai, you don't have an ordinary brain! I used the Pythagorean theorem of geometry to calculate the hypotenuse size of the triangle! This theorem was invented by our ancestors! You remember that "hook three strands, four and five", as long as the two right-angled sides are 3 or 4, the hypotenuse must be 5! And the general law is that the sum of the squares of the lengths of two right-angled sides is equal to the square value of the hypotenuse, which is a constant equation! As long as you know the scale of the two straight edges, you can calculate the size of the hypotenuse! Do you understand? ”

I smiled and said, "Teacher Tao! I understand! Math is amazing! In the future, I want to learn mathematics such as geometry! Can you teach me?! ”

Teacher Tao smiled and said, "Of course! I'll teach you! ”

After Mr. Tao finished his work, he went home by himself.

......

After that, Mr. Cen and I were going to look for a place to serve as a temporary oil depot for the maintenance plant.

Teacher Cen said, "Ah Cai! You often play around! Where do you think it is appropriate to build a temporary oil depot? Oil is easy to explode! Must stay away from dwellings! ”

I said, "Mr. Cen is more than a kilometer away from the location of the machine repair factory, and there is an abandoned brick factory!" There are a lot of abandoned houses there! There are no dwellings within a kilometer or two of this brickyard! Let's go to that place first! ”

So, Mr. Cen, and Uncle Lan drove the carriage to the abandoned brick factory.

When we got there, after seeing the place, Mr. Cen and Uncle Lan were very satisfied with the oil depot here!

Teacher Cen smiled and said, "Uncle Lan! I remember! This brick factory was originally run by the Cai family! Later abandoned! Wait, let's talk to the Cai family! Give them a little money! We're renting it here! The house here can be used as a warehouse! A lot of bricks and tiles here are good! We can take it and get up the house! This can save a lot of material costs! ”

I said, "Teacher Cen! I know the Cai family very well! I'll just talk to them! Cai Jiaxing's father will definitely agree! ”

Teacher Cen said, "Okay! Wait for you to lead the way, and we'll talk to them together! This is a big deal in the factory! We can't be sloppy! ”

After we saw the brick and tile factory, we drove directly to Cai's house.

When I arrived at the Cai family's compound, it happened that Cai Jiaxing's father, Sister Meixin and Cai Jinghua were all at home.

We talked in the living room of their house.

Mr. Cen explained our intention and the fact that we wanted to build a temporary oil depot on the site of their old brick factory.

Father Cai smiled and said, "Teacher Cen! The brick factory is worthless, so you can use it! Don't count it as a rent! In the future, after you build the machine repair factory, let Meixin and Jinghua do the work for you! ”

Teacher Cen smiled and said, "Lao Cai! Then thank you Cai family! In the future, Meixin and Jinghua's work will be wrapped up in us! When the factory is built, Meixin will do financial management for us! After Jinghua graduates, you can also go to work there! ”

After finishing speaking, Father Cai handed over the keys to the brick factory to Teacher Cen and Uncle Lan.

In this way, our temporary oil depot and some building materials have been settled!

......

At 5 o'clock in the morning on February 28, Jingtiange, Wenchangge, Zuxingge and others moved the equipment, materials and oil of the machine repair plant, as well as two trucks and four jeeps to the designated location and stacking yard of the machine repair plant!

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Uncle Lan and Brother Lan Feng set up two big carriages to move Aunt Lotus and Sister Caixia, as well as the valuables and daily necessities of the Lan family in Guiguxia, to the Cen family's compound in Daling Town.

Since then, Uncle Lan's family has settled in the Cen family compound, and they live with the Cen family.

......

On the evening of March 1, our family went to the Cen family compound to have dinner with the Cen family and the Lan family, and discussed the shares of the machine repair factory, as well as registration and operation issues.

Teacher Cen said, "Magnolia! Uncle Lan! After everyone's efforts and the help of the villagers! The equipment and materials of the machine repair shop have been moved in place! On March 15, the factory, shed, parking lot, work field, fence and other infrastructure can be built! We strive to complete the equipment installation and commissioning of the machine shop before May 1st! After that, we began to receive customers and undertake the maintenance and operation of automobiles and general electromechanical equipment! Now, let's talk about the issue of the repair shop's shares! I made a budget, our entire construction project and equipment installation, to spend about 3,000 yuan in labor and material costs! I'll pay for the money first! Just deduct it from the year-end closing profit! ”

The mother said, "Yes! On the issue of shares in the machine shop! Teacher Cen, you will give you a plan first! Regarding the registration of the machine repair factory, tomorrow I will bring the old business license and other business certificates of the original machine repair factory, and go to the county and provincial capital to find the relevant departments for approval! If an acquaintance is willing to help! It shouldn't be a big problem! We just follow the general enterprise declaration! ”

Teacher Cen said, "Okay! In fact, these equipment and supplies belong to the original military school! The property of the military academy belongs to the Cen family and the Qin family! This time, the Qin family contributed to the construction of the factory, and also contributed! Therefore, the Qin family has a little more shares! The Qin family accounts for 40% of the shares, the Cen family accounts for 35% of the shares, and the Lan family accounts for 25% of the shares! What do you think? ”

Uncle Lan smiled and said, "Our Lan family is just contributing!" There can be so many shares! We are already satisfied! ”

The mother said, "Teacher Cen! I think this division is good! I propose Mr. Cen to be the chairman and general manager of the company, responsible for the whole process of business decision-making and daily management! It is proposed that Uncle Lan be the director of the machine repair factory and be responsible for the daily production management of the factory! ”

Everyone applauded and approved the proposal of Mr. Cen and his mother!

In this way, the plan for the construction of the machine repair plant was decided, and after the meeting, the adults and their brothers and sisters began to be busy with the preparation of the machine repair factory.

......

A few days later, Daling Primary School opened, and Xiaoda and I handed over the equipment and material ledgers in the factory to Mr. Cen and Uncle Lan.

We went to sign up for the study with Sister Wenjuan.

Brother Zu Xing still has one semester to graduate from high school, so he went to the county seat to study alone.

......

At the end of March, my mother went to the county and the provincial capital, and through acquaintances, our machine repair factory was attached to the name of a large company in the provincial capital.

My mother got back two sets of share certificates, business licenses, tax registration certificates, and a full set of company and factory seals.

At the same time, it has obtained the recruitment index of 100 regular employees and the supply index of grain, oil, non-staple food and daily necessities, as well as the license plate, operating license, driving license, driver's license and refueling index of two trucks and four jeeps!

In this way, Mr. Cen officially became the chairman and general manager of the company; Uncle Lan became the director of the machine repair factory; Brother Zu Xing, Brother Jingtian, Brother Wenchang, Brother Lanfeng, Five Brothers of the Jia Family, Cai Meixin and other 10 people became the first batch of employees of the machine repair factory, and their wages and benefits were paid according to the local level!

Of course, Sister Lifen, Sister Li'an, Sister Caixia, Aunt Lotus and others are also attached to become employees of the machine repair factory. None of them get paid in the factory, so they don't need to go to the countryside to work! However, they can enjoy the social benefits of the supply of grain, oil, non-staple food and daily necessities! In this way, they can save a lot of money when they buy things in the town.

......

In the process of equipment installation and commissioning in the maintenance plant, Mr. Cen and Uncle Lan attended classes every day.

In the classroom, they teach mechanical principles and drawing; Equipment disassembly and assembly procedures and operation guidelines; Installation, use and maintenance of machining equipment such as lathes, planers, milling machines, grinding machines, forging presses, electric welding machines, generators, etc.; Basic knowledge and practical operation of various types of work and processes such as electricians, fitters, machine tool workers, welders, forging and heat treatment, etc.

Me, Xiaoda and Jingdi, as long as I have time, I can also participate in lectures and practical operations!

Through these studies, I feel that I have so much to learn!

Of course, this also stimulated my desire to learn about science and technology!

I began to develop a strong interest in mathematics, physics, chemistry, drawing, mechanics and electromechanics, etc.!

......

On May 1st, our machine repair factory officially opened for business, and the machine repair factory began to undertake the maintenance business of automobiles and mechanical and electrical equipment!

......

During this time, Brother Jing Tiange and Lifen's letter to Uncle Li Shaochang was returned to our home in its original envelope, and the envelope was stamped with the local post office, "There is no such person, return it as it is!" "The seal!

The mother said to Brother Jingtian and Sister Lifen: "Alas! The children! Maybe Uncle Li also had an accident! You can work in our own machine shop! Liph-Fen! Hurry up and open your rice noodle shop! You can just start it in the name of the machine shop canteen! ”

Brother Wen Chang and Sister Wen Juan's letters to their parents were not returned, but there was no reply or reply.

In fact, now, they don't want to leave our house as much as they did in the past.

After that, Brother Jingtian and Sister Meixin began to officially fall in love, and their parents recognized their relationship very much!

Sister Li Fen, Sister Wen Juan, Sister Li'an, Sister Caiyan and others, with the help of Wei Ma and Aunt Lotus, rented a shop on the street between the market and Daling Primary School, and opened their rice noodle restaurant!

In this way, the employment problems of the brothers and sisters were all solved, and the adults were relieved!

We kids were so happy too!

Because, we also see the future prospects!
