Early the next morning, Zhao Laosi came with tools.

When they arrived at the duty room, they greeted Lu Changhua, and the two walked north together.

The dam of the reservoir to the north is nearly 500 meters away from the main dam, and four truckloads of red bricks are unloaded here.

"Master, it's in this area, you choose a location."

Zhao Laosi squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while.

When he first made the sluice, he still poured concrete.

In fact, he is very familiar with this film.

Zhao Laosi pointed to a place more than 30 meters away on the west side of the dam and said, "That's not bad." ”

"Well, yes, the terrain is high, and there is a certain distance from the water."

Lu Changhua and Zhao Laosi walked on this small plateau.

He looked at it and asked, "Do you need to bulldoze it?" ”

"Of course it's good to be able to bulldoze it."

"Okay, I'll go find the car."

Lu Changhua returned to the duty room, stepped on the motorcycle and ran to the maintenance team.

He still has to go to Li Zhenguo.

The maintenance team has been busy overhauling the seeders these days.

Wheat planting will begin in mid-April.

Seeing Lu Changhua coming suddenly, Li Zhenguo just smiled in the office, what's the matter with this kid? !

"Captain, captain, first aid!"

Lu Changhua directly broke into Li Zhenguo's office.

"What's wrong? What's the matter? ”

Seeing Lu Changhua in such a hurry, Li Zhenguo was taken aback.

"Send me Lao Lin's car."

"What for?"

"Two things he needs to do. One is to level the foundation, and the other is to help me turn over the wasteland on the east side of the vegetable garden, okay? ”

"The First Evolution"

"I'm busy overhauling it."

"It's time for overhaul, I use his car, and I don't need his people."

"What? Do it yourself? ”

"Ah, I'll do it myself if you're too busy."

"Pull it down, you will break the car again and delay the spring sowing."

Li Zhenguo pondered for a moment, "Let him work for you for two days, is it enough?" ”

"It's up to him."

Li Zhenguo found Master Lin in the parking lot of the tractor.

I arranged the work a little.

Lu Changhua also followed.

He didn't say anything, but handed the cigarette first.

After Li Zhenguo finished explaining, he said to Master Lin: "Master Lin, don't you be embarrassed, right?" ”

"What's so hard about that? Just a few days of work. ”

He lit a cigarette and took a few puffs of beauty, and then asked, "Xiao Lu, other people's families are thinking about buying cows, why don't you buy a few heads?" ”

"Me? Don't buy it for now. ”

"Why?"

"I have limited energy, so get the job done first."

"Also, the investment in the reservoir is so large, you can't keep the two ends in tune!"

"Let's go, hang up the big plow, and bring the shovel with you, and the two of you will work."

"Don't worry, I'll refuel first, how much wasteland is there?"

"Ten acres, you go in and turn around twice and you're done."

"That's right."

Master Lin started the tractor and went to the oil depot to fill up the diesel fuel before returning to mount the bulldozer shovel and plow.

Lu Changhua rode away on a motorcycle first.

Half an hour after he arrived at the duty room, the roar of the tractor rang out.

Master Lin first unloaded the plough on the side of the road in the duty room, and then went north under the greeting of Zhao Laosi.

All the way to the mud, the tractor chain rails threw all the mud on the side of the road, rolling out the hard frozen soil.

Came to the designated place.

Zhao Laosi asked Master Lin to bulldoze this small high slope.

At this time, the ground is covered with thin mud above and frozen soil below, and the tractor is spewing black smoke, and the engine is letting out a low roar.

The shovel scraped the frozen soil with a snap, and the ground was pushed out with a white mark.

There was no way, Master Lin pushed the floating soil from other places and filled in the potholes.

I tried my best to push out a flat land of four or five hundred square meters.

"How? Okay, right? ”

Zhao Laosi looked at it and nodded, "Okay." ”

Only then did Master Lin come to the duty room, unload the bulldozer shovel, and hang a large plow behind his buttocks.

According to Lu Changhua's command, he plunged headlong into the wasteland.

The depth of the plough is set at 30 cm.

But as soon as he entered, the plough ran on the surface.

The coulter can only eat more than a dozen centimeters, and the ground below is frozen soil, so it can't be eaten at all.

"What's going on?"

Master Lin looked at the four shallow ditches behind the car and frowned.

"Don't worry, I'll do it at noon when the sun is shining."

Master Lin looked at the sky and nodded.

"I can only try again at noon."

Directly turned off the tractor, and the two returned to the duty room.

I said I would do it at noon, but it was actually after 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

This is the time when the ice and snow are the most powerful.

The two bragged and chatted in the duty room, smoking and drinking water.

Zhao Laosi had already placed the line on the flat ground.

The so-called pay-off is to use hemp rope to pull out a horizontal and vertical appearance on the ground, and use a wooden stick to stretch the rope.

The force will excavate the foundation in the direction of these hemp ropes.

At this time, because there is no excavator such a construction tool, it has to be dug manually.

He put the thread away.

Four men came with shovels and pickaxes.

This was made by Zhao Laosi yesterday.

That's what Ligong does. Seeing that the line was placed, he didn't say much, spat a few mouthfuls in the palm of his hand, and stood in the line, and then picked up the pickaxe and planed.

The beginning is the hardest, a pickaxe down is a small white spot, as long as this layer of frozen soil is dug open, there is soft soil underneath.

To do this kind of manual work, every five minutes, four people are divided into two shifts.

The duty room here sits west and faces east, and the door is open on the east side.

According to the design of four rooms, the door opens in the middle, and once you enter the door is a large office with a fire wall; One on the north side is a warehouse; There are two rooms on the south side, and one by the office is a bedroom, with a fire kang; On the southernmost side is a kitchenette with a stove and stove.

The warehouse is 6 meters, the office is 8 meters, the bedroom is 6 meters, and the kitchen is 4 meters.

It is 24 meters long from north to south and 6 meters wide from east to west.

The duty room here does not take on the task of storing and processing feed, but only feeds the fish and patrols the duty, so it does not need to be too big.

At noon, Hu Dagui took Dahong Erhong to push a trolley and brought lunch over.

Zhao Laosi also came to the duty room with a force.

After lunch and rest, Zhao Laosi took the laborers to the construction site, and Lu Changhua and Master Lin went to the wasteland again.

The snow in the wasteland has melted, and the pyramids of the springs have disappeared.

The spring water flows down the ditch it flushed out last year into the reservoir.

Master Lin started the tractor and ploughed the wasteland.

At this point, the coulter can sink about 20 centimeters into the ground.

I can barely turn up a layer of dirt.

"Is that okay?"

"Okay, slow down, flip it over as much as you can."

In these more than ten acres of wasteland, the tractor was pulling in for a while, and the weeds, small bushes, and meadows on the ground were flipped and turned upside down.

The wasteland, which originally looked gray and yellow, immediately became swarthy.

The tractor deliberately moved out of the way of springs and gutters.

In just one afternoon, this little bit of work was done.

"Do you use a heavy rake?"

"Yes, let's come tomorrow afternoon."

The two agreed to do it again tomorrow afternoon.

Master Lin went back with his own guys.

After an afternoon of hard work, the permafrost at the base of the house was cut open.

They're going to dig down overnight, or they'll freeze tomorrow morning.

Last year, when the dam sluice gates were being repaired, the wires were pulled.

We're going to have to do it this year.

There are several electric lights on the construction site.

The four of them were steaming hot and sweating like rain.

Lu Changhua saw that it was difficult for them to complete the set task, so he had to call Hu Dagui and them, and a few of them would do it together.

Zhao Laosi stretched out his hand.

With the addition of Lu Changhua and a few people, the excavation progress is much faster.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the entire foundation had been dug up.

The depth is around one meter two.

I ate supper in the evening and then went back.

That night, Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui slept in the duty room.

This day was busy chattering, and Lu Changhua was tired enough.

"Dagui, how much more rice is there?"

"It's coming, a day or two at most."

"Well, hold on."

Now that the weather is warmer, it is not easy to thresh the rice as soon as the tide returns.

Both of them slept very deeply this night.

It was past seven o'clock when I woke up.

Hu Dagui hurriedly got up to wash, and then rushed to Lu's house, and Lu Changhua also got up and cleaned up the house.

Dahong's daughter-in-law came.

"My sister-in-law came early enough."

"It's not early, it's almost 8 o'clock."

Lu Changhua nodded.

As soon as he went out, Zhao Laosi came with someone.

They're going to have to deal with the foundation a little bit more.

Lu Changhua went to the dam sluice gate and lifted the sluice up again.

This time the water was bigger.

The water level on the north side of the dam is already more than a metre.

Look at the white flowers.

The last thing that the dam has to do now is water.

At noon, the water of the Snow River and the springs were pouring in, and the water was already on the ice.

Lu Changhua can't do it if he doesn't release water.

He returned to the duty room, where Dahong's daughter-in-law was boiling water.

"Sister-in-law, I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter?"

"Do you know who has geese?"

"What? Do you want to eat? ”

"No, I want goose eggs, I want to hatch a few geese."

"We have a large water surface here, and there are a lot of aquatic plants, which is a good place to raise geese, and goose dung can also feed fish."

"I really know that Lao Yang's family has more than a dozen geese in our branch, and there should be a lot of goose eggs in his family."

"Old Yang's family?"

Lu Changhua remembered.

The Yang family lived at the back of the team headquarters, and the old man used to drive the carriage, but then the carriage was eliminated and he farmed.

Does he have a goose at home?

I'll have to take a look.

Raising geese has always been in Lu Changhua's plan, but he didn't spare time.

In his previous life, he raised geese and sold them for money.

He is still experienced.

The goose is full of treasures.

Goose down and goose feathers can be sold for money, goose meat is also worth a lot of money, not to mention goose eggs.

Even its dung fish can be eaten.

And it doesn't eat fish.

Why don't you keep ducks?

Because ducks eat fish.

He was talking to Dahong's daughter-in-law about raising geese, when a horn sounded outside.

When he went out, Lao Lu came with a cart of sand.

This is an indispensable material for building a house.

Lu Changhua waved his hand north at him.

He kicked the accelerator and rushed north.

Lu Changhua also followed to the north.

When the sand arrived, Zhao Laosi and they unloaded the car.

"Lao Lu, let's pull thirty bags of cement first, and then pull if it's not enough."

"You have to go and load the car for two, what can I do alone?"

"Okay, you two go."

Zhao Laosi commanded the two laborers to get into the car.

Lao Lu suddenly ran to pull cement again.

"Sift out the sand first."

The laborers propped up the sieve and sifted it up with a spade.

Lu Changhua walked up, handed Zhao Laosi a cigarette, and lit it with a match.

"Master Zhao, when will the carpenter enter the field?"

"Tell him the size, make it at home, and it's too late to enter the venue when it's ready."

"Okay, you can arrange it directly from the carpenter?"

"Okay."

Zhao Laosi is equivalent to a contractor, and he doesn't want the master to interfere in everything.

"Then you can arrange it, I don't care."

Lu Changhua walked to the two gentlemen who were sifting sand again, and each of them scattered a cigarette, then said his hard work and left.

He thought about going to Lao Yang's house.
