Chapter 5 Xiaobao opens his eyes

The instant noodles that Wei Minsheng had just cooked were eaten by Xiaobao, and he was still hungry at this time. took Xiaobao to the gas stove, put a bowl of water in the pot again, and then turned on the gas stove.

With a snap, a blue flame appeared under the pot, and then turned red under the effect of the infrared stove.

Xiaobao looked at Wei Minsheng in amazement as soon as he stretched out his hand, releasing a red flame, and how big his mouth opened.

Wei Minsheng turned off the switch again and taught Xiaobao how to use the gas stove, and after a few operations, Xiaobao was able to use the gas stove by himself.

Wei Minsheng also said some precautions to Xiaobao, such as tightening the switch of the gas tank when not in use for safety to prevent fire.

After a few minutes, the water in the pot boiled. Wei Minsheng took another package of instant noodles, tore open the package, took out the seasoning package, put the dough cake into the pot, put the seasoning into the pot, used chopsticks to break up the pastry, stirred the seasoning evenly by the way, and then covered the pot and turned off the gas stove.

While the dough cake was still soft, he taught Xiaobao how to eat instant noodles.

Wei Minsheng brought a clean bowl, and after eating instant noodles, he taught Xiaobao how to use dishwashing detergent to remove oil stains from pots and bowls.

Xiaobao said while washing: "There is still so much oil on it, it's a pity to wash it, if there is still oil in the pot in our village, it will definitely not be washed, and it will be used for the next meal." ”

Wei Minsheng said to Xiaobao: "Don't worry, it won't be long before I let your village have meat to eat every day." In order to achieve this sooner, you have to do one thing for me. ”

"Master, tell me, what's the matter?"

"When you go back to the village next time, bring a packet of instant noodles, cook a bowl for your patriarch grandfather to taste, and then tell him that you have worshipped me as a master. You, Master, and I know a lot of things that can make their lives better and better, but they have to trade their labor for food or something. If they wish, one person from each household will come here tomorrow morning when the sun rises, and I will have something for them to do. If it is done well, I will give each person five catties of rice every day, or two packets of instant noodles, and the rest will be talked about later. Remember? Xiaobao. ”

"Master, Xiaobao remembers."

Wei Minsheng took Xiaobao to the logging place again, and then took out the foot buckles, ropes, chain saws and other tools used to climb trees from his room in the real world, and said to Xiaobao who was stunned and looked at him: "This is Master's secret, I can't teach you." ”

Then I chose a suitable cypress tree, put on the buckles, and climbed to the middle of the tree in a few clicks. After tying the rope in the previous way, he started the chain saw, sawed off a cypress tree in a few minutes, and then used a small pulley and a homemade reel to bring down the sawn cypress tree, and after removing the branches, it was sawn into two sections.

It took less than twenty minutes to finish the tree, and Xiaobao on the side didn't close his mouth until he saw it, only to see Wei Minsheng take out this for a while, and take out that for a while, all of which were things that he had never seen before, and a big tree thicker than himself was easily put down.

Wei Minsheng took all the tools back to his room and said to Xiaobao, "How long does it take for the people in your village to cut down such a tree?" ”

Xiao Bao forcibly suppressed the surprise in his heart, thought for a while and said, "I have never seen them cut this kind of tree, this kind of tree is too hard. The best tool in our village is the copper saw, sawing a small tree is very laborious, the saw has to sharpen the sawtooth for a while, just a small tree as thick as my neck, two or three people do not have half an hour to saw. This tree like the one that the master saw, it is as thick as an adult, and if there is an iron axe that the patriarch's grandfather said, it should be cut off, right? But it's certainly not as easy as you, Master. ”

"There are no iron tools in your village, and it is a little difficult to do this work, you look carefully, how I use these tools, especially this chain saw, the front of the saw is very dangerous, if it hits a person's body when it rotates, it will be either death or injury. I don't think the human body is as hard as these tree trunks, so you must be careful when using this chainsaw. Also, this chain saw needs to be refueled to turn up, this oil can't be eaten, it's called gasoline, it's also very dangerous, you must not be next to a spark or something, it's easy to burn and explode. ”

Then Wei Minsheng taught Xiaobao how to use several other tools, although Xiaobao has a smarter mind, but he has learned so many things at once, and he can't digest them for a while.

Wei Minsheng sat on a tree stump, Xiaobao took such a tool to use it, took that thing to look at, and asked Wei Minsheng for advice if he didn't know anything.

After all, practice is much more direct than teaching theory in school, and some things are described in pure language, in order to express them more accurately, they often need a large paragraph of text, and the result is a series of simple actions after understanding, so self-study without a high level of understanding is not as good as teaching by word and deed.

After Xiaobao mastered the use of these tools, he said to Wei Minsheng, "Master, are you an immortal?" I've never seen any of these things, and I've never even heard of them. And the kind of instant noodles I ate in the morning, I guess it's something that only fairies can eat, right? ”

Wei Minsheng thought that maybe he was an immortal-like existence in this world, but he was an atheist and wanted to shape himself into an immortal among these ordinary people, which seemed to be a bit self-deceptive, so forget it.

said to Xiaobao: "There are no gods in this world, if you want to harvest, you have to pay, just like these things of mine, I still have to exchange other things and my labor." The more you give, the more you get. But my ability to do it alone is limited, so what I get in exchange is also the worst. If I had more resources, I could have better tools and produce more food, and then no one would go hungry. ”

"These tools aren't the best, so what does the best look like?"

"If I had a vast land and used the best tools to grow food, the food that one person grows in a year can feed the people in your village for several lifetimes. But I don't have land right now, I don't have the best tools, and more importantly, I'm not very familiar with the situation here. You also said that your ancestors came here to escape the war, which means that the outside world is very dangerous, and if there is no strong force, even if you grow more food, you will not be able to save it, and you may lose your life because of it. The terrain here is not suitable for my development, and when the conditions are ripe, you and I will go outside to find a good place and build the largest city in the world, and millions of people live in the city. On the wide streets, there are cars carrying people around the city, dozens of times faster than ox carts or something. There are all kinds of shops in the city, and there are all kinds of things in the stores that can be bought for a certain amount of money. Instant noodles like the one we ate earlier are the most common things in the store, and there are even better things than that. The clothes in the store are colorful, for adults, children, women, all kinds of styles, as long as you have money, you can buy whatever you want. In that city, at night, there are countless electric lights, which illuminate the whole city brightly. In that city, there was no war, no fraud, no hunger, and everyone was equal. If you're old, you don't have to work to take care of you, and if you're sick, you have someone to take care of you......"

Although Wang Xiaobao couldn't figure out which cars, electric lights, or something Wei Minsheng was talking about, when he saw these things that he had just learned to use, he thought that as long as the master said it was good, it would definitely be good.

In Wang Xiaobao's previous thoughts, the best days were to have Jinshan, Grain Mountain, Roshan, and Bushan at home, and that was the best family in the world. Now listening to Master, there are better things than this, completely fascinated by the city life that Wei Minsheng described that does not exist now.

Unconsciously, the sun was already in the west, so Wei Minsheng gave Wang Xiaobao a pack of instant noodles and asked him to go back quickly and tell his patriarch grandfather what he had explained in the morning.

If they are willing to come and do something, each family will bring one person here early tomorrow morning, and they will tell everyone what to do when the time comes.
