Chapter 0050 Harvest the grain
This National Day, the Lu family is different from the past.
In the past, the National Day was to find a way to fry a meat dish to celebrate the birthday of the motherland, but this year, the Lu family not only has meat dishes, but also candy.
In the past, the home was relatively deserted, but this year, the Mid-Autumn Festival and the National Day are two days apart, and they are one.
No matter how difficult the family economy is, mooncakes always have to be bought.
This is what Lao Lu did.
Lu Changhua has eaten two kinds of moon cakes.
One is red and green silk white sugar mooncakes, and the other is five-kernel mooncakes.
Lu Changhua likes to eat red and green silk, sweet but not greasy, and he still likes to eat it.
As for the five kernels, I don't like it very much, probably because it's not too sweet.
At this time, ordinary people can't eat sweets a few times a year, and sugar is a luxury, so it's no wonder he likes it.
In previous years, the Lu family's moon cakes were counted, two catties of moon cakes, ten, five in a tube.
There is no packaging for moon cakes, and in stores there are five moon cakes wrapped together in oiled paper in the shape of a cylinder.
There is no text or instructions on the oiled paper.
After buying these two tubes of mooncakes, Lu's mother will hide them and wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to be willing to take them out and eat them.
When eating, it is also cut into small pieces with a knife and placed on a plate, which is very ceremonial.
Lu Changzhong and Lu Changhua's little ghosts have long found clues from the sneaky actions of their parents and smelled an unusual smell.
While my parents are not at home, I rummage through the boxes and cabinets, and I can get something every time.
I remember one time, the brothers found two tubes of moon cakes, and they had the courage to tear them open and eat them.
Tear out the five-kernel mooncake and bite the mooncake four times, gnaw the mooncake crust, and the five-kernel stuffing inside is not eaten, and it is thrown away.
All the way to the loss.
The two of them still have the leisure to play on the swing.
The result can be imagined, being beaten by my parents this time!
The brothers went along the road to find the lost mooncakes.
He remembers this incident deeply.
This year, he said he would buy more to commemorate his lost childhood.
On the day of the National Day, there are not only fish and meat on the table, but also moon cakes.
This time, I didn't cut the moon cakes again, but put five of them whole.
According to Lu Changhua, mooncakes are a symbol of reunion, how can they be cut? Isn't that a parting? Not cut anymore.
Mother Lu nodded, no longer mentioning the stubble of the moon cakes, Lao Lu sat on the edge of the kang with a smile, and poured wine by himself.
The days that are now are called days!
Looking at the food and drinks on the table, and thinking about the past, it is really hard to say.
The Lu family was drinking and talking, and Hu Dagui came with a calm face.
"Hehe, uncle, aunt, big brother, where is the dinner?!"
"Ah, Dagui, let's have some food together."
Lao Lu and Lu's mother hurriedly greeted him, and Lu Changzhong moved to the side.
"Hey, so much goodies? Well, you're welcome! ”
How could this kid be polite, he sat directly beside Lu Changhua, staring at the braised big carp and drooling.
"Dagui, didn't your family also make carp, what's wrong? I won't let you eat it? ”
"No, I haven't eaten enough, besides, uncle's craftsmanship, which can be eaten casually!"
Lu Changhua teased while getting up and went to the kitchen to bring the dishes and chopsticks, and the kid shook off his cheeks and ate them.
Of course, he didn't drink less.
As soon as the food was almost finished here, the neighbors came to watch TV.
The Lu family hurriedly cleaned up the table.
Lu Changzhong turned on the TV, and Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui helped pick up the dishes and chopsticks.
When Lao Hu and Aunt Hu saw their son helping here, they laughed and scolded.
"I don't do fart work at home, so I'm here to eat and drink."
Mother Lu pulled Aunt Hu to sit on the kang.
Soon the house was full again.
There is a National Day Gala tonight, and everyone is staring at the TV, and they are quickly attracted by the wonderful program.
Lu Changzhong watched TV for a while, then shrunk on the kang and took a nap, and tomorrow he had to rush back to the unit early in the morning, so he couldn't stay up late.
Early the next morning, the brothers had an early meal, and Lu Changhua rode a motorcycle to send his eldest brother back to the unit.
Fifteen kilometers away, half an hour away.
There was also a bucket hanging on the side of the motorcycle, in which there were a few big carp jumping around, which was used as a gift for Lu Changzhong.
When he arrived at the radio station, Lu Changzhong left with a bucket.
Lu Changhua turned the car and rushed back to the third field.
Returning from the fork in the road, he first arrived at the maintenance team.
When Captain Li saw Lu Changhua coming, he took him to find Master Fei.
"Old Fei, today you go and collect the feed for Lu Changhua."
"Okay."
Master Fei put away the toolbox and stuffed it into the side box.
"Did you refuel?"
Li Zhenguo asked.
"That's it."
Lu Changhua handed Li Zhenguo and Master Fei cigarettes, and then stepped on the motorcycle and said:
"Follow me."
"Okay."
Master Fei took a cigarette in his mouth, agreed, pulled the car door and climbed onto the combine.
Lu Changhua greeted Captain Li, stepped on the accelerator, and led the way in front.
Didi~
The harvester honked twice, and the throttle throttle followed behind.
Along the machine farming road, all the way to the east, there is a road leading directly to the pig.
The feed field is on the east side of the pig, which is already very close to the reservoir.
The fodder field is fed with soybeans on the east side and corn on the west side.
The combine harvester plunged headlong into the soybean field to the east and started harvesting mode.
Master Fei first adjusted the combine harvester to the soybean harvesting mode, adjusted the direction of the locomotive, and rolled the wheels into the soybean furrow.
The harvesting platform is lowered, three or four centimeters away from the ridge, and the harvest begins.
The wheel on the harvesting table gently pats the soybean seedlings, causing the soybean seedlings to fall to the inside of the harvesting table, and the cutter is inserted into the root of the soybean seedlings, and the strong power makes the cutting knife easily cut the soybean seedlings.
The seedlings collapsed on the harvesting table and were conveyed by a conveyor belt into the inside of the harvester.
After a series of mechanical treatments, the pods are separated from the soybean seedlings, the pods are broken again, and the yellow-orange-orange soybeans enter the granary for centralized storage.
The harvester walked while harvesting, and soon harvested large fields.
The soybean straw is concentrated at the end of the harvester and thrown in the field.
The soybean skin formed after the pod is broken is a good roughage.
If necessary, sacks are hung at the exit and guarded manually.
Only Hu Dagui can do this.
Today, he was dressed as labor, wearing a hat and a blue coat, which Lu Changhua found.
Hu Dagui held a few sacks in his hand and followed the harvester.
When he saw that the sack at the exit was full, he took it off, and set it on the ground, and hastened to hang up another one.
Lu Changhua parked the motorcycle on the side of the road and let Xiong Bao guard it, he ran in and sewed the unloaded sack with a horse needle.
Lu Changhua will do this work, and it will be completed in ten seconds.
He also rode a motorcycle to the drying field and said hello to Director Zhang.
A few people were arranged to help with the drying.
At noon, he went home again to get lunch, and he, Master Fei, and Hu Dagui made do with it and ate some on the ground, and continued to work in the afternoon.
The soybeans in the ten fields were dry all day, and Lao Lu's rubber-tyred cart pulled five truckloads of grain.
Nearly 100 sacks were packed in the bean skin.
In the evening, Lao Lu and Lao Fei were arranged to have dinner at home, and he and Hu Dagui accompanied him.
Early the next morning, the two went to the drying field on motorcycles.
It was cold in the morning and evening, but the sun was abundant at noon.
Lu Changhua's soybeans are piled on a cement slab.
The sun dried the dew, and the workers in the drying field came out of the duty room one after another to dry the pile of soybeans.
Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui looked around the soybean pile, there are really a lot of soybeans in these ten fields, and it is estimated that they will get more than 20 tons.
After drying for three days in a row, with an instrument and a dozen waters, it has dropped from 13 to 11, which is almost the same.
Lu Changhua grabbed a handful of soybeans, threw one in his mouth, rattled it, spit it out, and broke into four or five petals.
"Director, is the water okay?"
Director Zhang also grabbed a handful, took a bite and looked at it, "It's done, you can go to the miscellaneous." ”
Director Zhang commanded people to peel and remove miscellaneous soybeans from Lu Changhua.
It is first raised, then sifted, and then packed in sacks one by one.
Then the scales are used to add up the weight.
This work was done for two days in a row.
Hu Dagui was here staring at the scales and counting the accounts.
He went to the family area to find a group of old ladies and went to his cornfield to break buds.
Six corn fields, broken out corn cobs piled up into a mountain.
This year is also strange, the feed of the pig is growing well, and it is obviously a bumper harvest year.
The high yield of corn is also a trouble, and there is no land to put it.
Lu Changhua was looking for someone to buy wood again, and built a corn building on the east side of his compound.
The pillars were made of six thigh-thick pieces of wood, and the floor was made of planks one meter above the ground.
Nail a ring of bezel inside.
The height of the corn building is more than five meters.
Such a corn building, ventilated everywhere, the corn will quickly dehydrate, easy to preserve.
Lu Changhua built four in one go.
A cart of bud rice came back and was unloaded directly in front of the corn building.
A large group of old ladies sat on the ground and picked up the budding rice, peeled off the outer skin of the corn, and poured baskets into the corn building.
For a week, the four corn buildings were full and covered with rainproof tarpaulins.
According to rough estimates, one corn building contains nine tons, and four are thirty-six tons.
As for soybeans, the specific numbers are already out.
Twenty-two and a half tons, 200 pounds of sacks contained 225 pieces.
One or two without a difference.
Since the debts originally owed to the company have been relieved, these are Lu Changhua's personal.
He has a bumper harvest, other family farms have reduced their yields to varying degrees, it is good to keep it without loss, if you want to make a profit, it is difficult!
Many people are not convinced.
Do not suffer from few, but suffer from unevenness.
That's human nature.
Not only did some people go to the company office to give advice, but some people secretly went to the field department to complain, saying that the leaders of the three-point field were favoritism, why did we all lose money, and he Lu Changhua could make a profit? ! Why did he have to forgive his debts when he made a profit?
In this trouble, the field department sent an investigation team to make Han Jianhua angry.
But what should be investigated still has to be investigated.
As a result of the investigation, the company's decision in August to reduce Lu Changhua's arrears was revoked and he was required to repay his debts.
