Xu Chenghou and others stayed at Xu Shiyan's house for one night, and went home the next morning.

Xu Shiyan was very busy, he was called away early in the morning, and he couldn't send his father-in-law and mother-in-law to the station.

Fortunately, Su Weizhong and his wife understood, so they naturally didn't pick anything and left happily.

Xu Shiyan took people and continued to toss in the new field.

After the ground is finished, it is time to orient and hang the strings.

Orientation is to determine the direction of the front eaves of the ginseng bed according to the requirements of ginseng for light, combined with the topography.

The overall requirement is to use the morning and evening sun, avoid the noon sun, and not use the positive sun.

Generally, at 10 a.m. or 10:30 a.m., the sunlight withdraws from the pool as the standard.

The flat land is mostly dewed, that is, the pond string is north-south or south-east.

The hill is mostly taken in the direction of due south and north, and the north and south slopes of the mountain are mostly along the mountain.

If the slope of the east and west slopes is not large, the water can be discharged smoothly, and the mountain can be crossed or sloped. If the slope is large, you should follow the mountain or slope the mountain.

Orientation is very important, Yu Shouguang found a few old ginseng farmers, and together with Xu Shiyan, he took a compass to measure around the ginseng field for a long time, and discussed for a long time, and then determined Yangkou.

Set the yang mouth, and then it's time to hang the strings.

According to the direction of the set pool string and the specifications of the bed, the stake is recorded, which is called hanging string.

It is still necessary to use a compass to set the direction, find the position of the stakes at both ends, and connect the two stake points with a rope.

Along the rope, insert a stake every five meters, which is the baseline.

Then, starting from the end of the baseline, along the direction of the end line, measure the width of the furrow string, that is, the width of the pond noodles and the horse road together.

"One Sword Alone"

Then insert the stakes, each stake is drawn with an ink pen, and the stakes of the same number are connected, which is equivalent to drawing countless parallel lines on the whole block.

The area between the two adjacent parallel lines is a furrow string, and when digging the soil, the stake cannot be pulled out or moved.

It seems to be quite simple, but the actual operation is very troublesome, and the second brigade plans to get 5,000 zhang ginseng soil this year, and it took two days to hang the strings.

Hang the skewers, and then dig the soil.

The workers took pickaxes and gouged up the turf along with the soil layer underneath to form a large adobe about a foot and a half square, which was buckled in the middle of the furrows.

At the same time, the subsoil on both sides is also gathered into the middle of the furrow string, and the adobe is placed on top of the subsoil, which is in the shape of fish scales.

After the adobe has been fully matured in the sun, the soil is then beaten.

Ploughing the soil, then it is purely a work of strength.

In those days, the pickaxe used for digging soil was larger than that used in the fields.

But in Xu Shiyan's eyes, this thing still doesn't work, it's too narrow, and it can't be counted.

So, Xu Shiyan began to take advantage of his rebirth again and drew a drawing.

After asking too much for advice, I asked someone from the industry to build a few new pickaxes according to the drawings.

The new pickaxe is twice as wide as the original pickaxe, and in order to reduce weight, it is solid only from the bottom half down, and the top is hollowed out.

The new pickaxe is so sharp that it can be cut off in two strokes from a small tree, let alone a turf.

It only takes two or three times to plane a piece of adobe, which is more than half the effort of the original pickaxe.

"Oh my God, this thing is so easy to use, Xiao Xu, how did you think of that?"

Xu Shiyan brought four or five pickaxes to the top of the mountain to test for everyone, and the results were to try it, and they all said that the new pickaxe was easy to use, fast to work, and labor-saving.

Yu Shouguang and other cadres of the brigade who followed up the mountain together were all dumbfounded, this new pickaxe is too good.

"Foolishly, the pickaxe we use is too slow, time-consuming and laborious, and the work is too slow." Xu Shiyan smiled.

In the previous life, when this pickaxe first came out, many people rushed to buy it, and the blacksmith shop that made the pickaxe made a lot of money.

This thing is really easy to use, until he is reborn, unless it is a machine ploughing the ground, if it is manual, it is all with this kind of ploughing tool.

Xu Shiyan made a total of five pickaxes in the industry, and all of them were snatched away.

Others don't, they can only watch others work quickly and lightly.

"Uncle Yu, don't stand here anymore, hurry back and fix the pickaxe with the industry."

There was a clever one next to him, so he hurried to Yu Shouguang and gave Yu Shouguang an idea.

"Set a hundred and eighty handfuls, the big guys have one hand, and they can work fast."

"Uncle, I don't think it will take a few days, and other brigades should come to you again.

This time, don't be like the ground gun, carry forward the style.

Simply, just set a thousand handfuls from the industry, and then we will sell them, even if you earn two yuan a handful, can't you earn a lot?

That's okay, uncle, think about it, at least earn the pickaxe money used by ourselves in our team. ”

Xu Shiyan was even more ruthless, and he came to a great deal.

Anyway, this is also made by him, he can't always give it away for nothing, even if he doesn't make a profit, he has to let the team make a fortune from it.

was reminded by Xu Shiyan like this, and several cadres in the team immediately widened their eyes.

"Oh, isn't it? What are we all pretending to be in this brain? I don't understand this at all.

Go, go, hurry, hurry back, find the people in industry, and tell them to keep it a secret.

This pickaxe, if our brigade doesn't make a fortune, it will really be a little blind mind. ”

How many brigades are there in Donggang Commune? Ten.

Ten brigades all planted ginseng, and they all had to dig the soil, so I don't believe they were not moved to see such a good pickaxe?

Even if a commune ordered a hundred pickaxes, that would be a lot of them.

You don't need to earn much with a pickaxe, just one dollar, and it's better than letting other brigades take advantage of it every time.

So, a few cadres of the brigade didn't care about anything, and they went down the mountain.

As soon as he went back, Yu Shouguang immediately found the director of the industrial factory and directly agreed with the other party that he would only make pickaxes for the second team, and the first batch would make 1,000 first.

After getting rid of the industrial side, Yu Shouguang first went to the commune to participate in the field, found the director of the commune to participate in the field, talked to others in the vernacular, and successfully sold 100 handfuls.

It is a dollar higher than the industrial quotation, and it is half of the deposit in advance.

The first step was successfully taken, and the next step was easy, Yu Shouguang and the others continued to flicker.

After a few days of work, the brigades under the Donggang Commune were all fooled by them to order the goods.

The second brigade is so noisy, can it not alarm the commune?

The commune leaders were also very curious when they found out, and went to the mountain to check it out in person, and found that this pickaxe was really useful.

"Old Yu, you're not authentic, you have money to earn in your brigade, it's not good.

What, this pickaxe matter, the Commune took over. Several leaders of the commune did not say a word and took over the follow-up work.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, how much ginseng did your commune get this year? Have you finished planing?

I have a very good thing to dig here, fast and light, and it is used by several brigades of our commune, do you want to come and see it? ”

The secretary of the commune directly shook the phone to find someone, which was a hundred times stronger than Yu Shouguang and them riding a car.

was fooled by the Donggang Commune, and the nearby communes of Xinglong, Songjiang, and Manjiang all sent people to learn from them.

Then, they found out that this pickaxe is really good.

Donggang said here, we have a part of the spot, not enough can be booked, do you want it?
