051 Clean up the courtyard
The next day, when Yang Xiaotao came to the workshop, he heard a message from Wang Fa's mouth.
"Xiao Tao, you know no. Liu Gong in our workshop, praise you! β
"Liu Gong?"
"That's right, eighth-level fitter Liu Daming!"
Then Wang Fa told Liu Daming about the situation, and Yang Xiaotao knew what was going on.
Liu Daming's status is better than Yi Zhonghai.
Even in comparison, Liu Daming has been in the rolling mill for a longer time, but because of his age, he rarely appears in the workshop now.
Unlike Yi Zhonghai, who only accepts a few apprentices, Liu Daming is full of peach and plums, not only there are many apprentices and grandchildren in the rolling mill, but also other brother factories have his people.
It can be described as highly respected.
Maybe he heard about the recent events, so he quietly came to see the meeting.
Then there was the so-called compliment.
Yang Xiaotao knew why Wang Fa was so happy, in this workshop, Liu Gong's words were better than those of the director, and even the factory director had to sell face.
Liu Gong said this, those gossips no longer have a market, and even if there is, they dare not blatantly provoke.
If you want to offend Liu Gong, then wait to be targeted by the whole factory.
Yang Xiaotao was grateful, although he didn't feel any grievances, but since people endorsed him, he should show gratitude appropriately.
So, after having affirmation, Yang Xiaotao only felt that there were more and more people coming from work every day, and even some third- and fourth-level people came to inquire, which made him a little blind, but also a little proud.
There is no way, the experience and knowledge instilled by the system give him this confidence.
As long as it is a first-level or second-level thing, he dares to teach.
Level 3 matters, I can also say two sentences.
Time is like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, the weather has warmed up, the cotton clothes are withdrawn, and Yang Xiaotao puts on the single clothes.
People who have been holding back for a winter can finally move freely, leaving the house that is about to become moldy, enjoying the warm sunshine, like mice after hibernation, wandering around, looking for food for life.
Yang Xiaotao has had a very moist winter this winter, although he has only been in this world for more than half a year, but what has happened in the past few months is like a catalyst, allowing him to quickly integrate into this world.
Now, I am beginning to enjoy this unique era.
Different from other homes in the courtyard, Yang Xiaotao has Xiaowei in the house, the house is clean and refreshing, and the wood has been repaired by Xiaowei, there is no decay of dead wood, but a faint fragrance.
Today is the weekend, after breakfast, Yang Xiaotao didn't go to the library, just prepared to tidy up the yard at home.
I bought the seeds from last time, and I waited for the weather to improve, and now I can finally carry the seeds.
Uncle Chen next door had heard about it a long time ago, and no one cared about growing vegetables and fruits in the yard.
But in this courtyard, there are only two of them who can have a courtyard, and then there is a vacant space outside the gate of the front yard, but it is only expensive by Yan Fu, which can be used as the faΓ§ade of literati and scholars.
Now Yang Xiaotao said that he was growing vegetables in the yard, and he was not optimistic.
Growing vegetables is not a simple task, not only do you need people to take care of it, but you also need to have good soil.
With the soil quality of the courtyard, he knew that it was not a place to grow vegetables at all.
Old Man Chen also reminded Yang Xiaotao, but Yang Xiaotao didn't care, he insisted on doing so, so he would take a hand to help.
"Uncle Chen, I have cabbage, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and leek seeds, how do you think it will be arranged?"
Yang Xiaotao took out the seeds, and these seeds were all combed by Xiaowei with her ability, and the survival rate was very high.
But now looking at the bags of seeds in his hand, Yang Xiaotao is still a little worried.
After all, he doesn't know how to farm.
Although what Uncle Chen said was reasonable, he hadn't heard of any courtyard growing vegetables, but he was different from others.
He has Xiaowei, an elf, as long as the seeds are planted, he doesn't have to worry about it, and he can even harvest a lot.
It's just that it's not easy to plant.
Fortunately, Uncle Chen helped with the planning, otherwise he could only be reckless.
Uncle Chen looked at Yang Xiaotao's yard, which was actually as big as his house, but it was separated by a half-meter-wide stone road in the middle.
This small courtyard is almost eleven or twelve square meters, narrow from north to south and wide from east to west, in front of the north wall of the west wing, and it is also a side room for the maid to live in by a large family, and now there is a family living in it, three people, all of whom are local, and the relationship is not bad.
Further west is the Jia family, although there is only one room, it is not worse than Yang Xiaotao's two rooms, and the Jia family also has two bedrooms in it.
Therefore, Yang Xiaotao's desire to farm has nothing to do with the people in the West Wing, and there is not even a window on the north wall.
Besides, Yang Xiaotao planted his own garden, and the people in the yard couldn't take care of it.
At most, say a sour thing that is in vain, young and ignorant.
"This side is against the wall, you can plant cucumbers, and when the time comes, plug in a wooden shelf and let it climb."
Uncle Chen pointed to the place near the west wall, which was blocked by a wall, and it was difficult to get sunlight in the afternoon.
Yang Xiaotao found a stone to write down the distance and set aside a place.
"That's where peppers are grown."
"Let's get tomatoes here, it's not too high, and it can't stop leeks."
"The rest can be grown with leeks and cabbage. There are many kinds of cabbage, and when you eat it, you can plant another crop and keep it for the winter. β
"Leeks, it's only the end of March, and you can eat them until autumn with two rows on the table."
Uncle Chen was planning while walking.
Yang Xiaotao listened carefully in the back, the time requirements for the planting of these crops are different, and only those who have lived in this Sijiu City for a long time can find out the rules, arrange the right time, and plant the right vegetables.
Yang Xiaotao took these to heart, and then prepared to start working.
Many people in the courtyard also knew what Yang Xiaotao was going to do, and several idlers were watching the excitement on the sidelines, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu were sitting in the distance, their eyes full of jealousy.
"Hmph, I really think I'm a character."
"There are so many courtyards in these Sijiu Cities, and I haven't heard of growing vegetables in the yard, so I really can't afford to lose this person."
"At first glance, it is a turtle from the countryside, and it is still farming in what age."
Jia Zhang's mouth is not virtuous, Qin Huairu on the side is bitter when she hears it, she is also from the countryside.
If their family also had a small yard, she would like to plant some too.
The first uncle and the second uncle also heard about it, and shook their heads and sneered one by one, waiting to see Yang Xiaotao's jokes.
The stupid pillar held his hands behind his back, looking old-fashioned, and said to the people in the yard that this kind of place is not simple.
At this time, Zhou Kui and Zhou Peng came over in the front yard and happened to meet Yan Fugui who was going out fishing.
The two people who had known about the courtyard for a long time briefly said it, and then walked towards the middle courtyard.
Yan Fugui also heard about Yang Xiaotao, and the idea of planting vegetables also rose in his heart.
If Yang Xiaotao can succeed, then what kind of flowers will he plant.
"This matter has to be recalculated, at least the land in front of the door must be obtained first."
Now that he is not in the mood for fishing, Yan Fugui put down the fishing rod and went to discuss with the three mothers.
When the two came to the middle courtyard, they saw Yang Xiaotao from afar.
"Why are you two here?"
"Brother Tao, let's help."
Zhou Peng rolled up his sleeves and prepared to move things.
There are still some miscellaneous things in the yard that need to be reorganized.
"That's great, I'm too busy to keep up."
Yang Xiaotao said, and looked at the people in the courtyard again, these guys watched most of the morning, and they didn't see any help, and they were still watching the play on the side.
Sure enough, it's a beast.
There are two people joining, especially Zhou Kui and Yang Xiaotao, who put a lot of effort into throwing simple garbage directly outside the alley.
In the end, the remaining water tanks, clothes racks, etc. in the yard were put aside.
Next, it's time for planting.
Feeling Xiaowei's excitement in his chest, Yang Xiaotao and the others made persistent efforts and started work directly.
Yang Xiaotao took a hoe and dug the ditch little by little under the guidance of Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen sprinkled the vegetable seeds into it in the back, and then Zhou Peng carried the water basin and poured water with a scoop, and then Zhou Kui took a shovel to close the ditch with soil, and then Uncle Chen compacted the ditch with his bare feet, leaving a series of footprints.
Several people were busy, and Aunt Chen also said that there was a feeling of farming when she was young, and even Uncle Chen felt a lot more comfortable.
While explaining how to plant, while talking about the interesting things in the past, this work was done directly at noon.
Aunt Chen had already gone home to prepare lunch, and this time Yang Xiaotao didn't let the Zhou brothers go, let them go over first and go back to the house to get something.
Uncle Chen led the two brothers home, and Yang Xiaotao was also thinking about bringing something over.
In the end, ten packets of braised beef noodles were taken to the package, and the seasoning was packed in a bottle, which can also be said.
Two old hams, of course, are also in addition to packaging, this thing is not packaged, it is similar to the red sausage at this time, but it is thicker, and others don't care.
came to Uncle Chen's house with his things, and asked Aunt Chen to cook noodles without saying anything.
At noon, everyone else had already eaten, and the Chen family's meal had just begun.
Then, the whole compound was covered with aroma, the smell of beef mixed with the aroma of old ham, which made the stomachs of those who had eaten it growl.
Jia Zhang's scolded again, and even the first few people snorted coldly.
The deaf old lady in the backyard looked at Uncle Chen's family, who were about the same age as her, and her heart suddenly became sour.
Her grandson is stupid, why didn't he come to bring her food.
Uncle Chen and the others were also attracted by the instant noodles in front of them, and they couldn't wait to eat the aroma immediately.
As a result, the ten packs of instant noodles were quickly eaten up by everyone, but the old ham was only half eaten, and the remaining one and a half Aunt Chen wanted to take back to Yang Xiaotao, Yang Xiaotao didn't want it, saying that there was still one at home, so he gave one to the Zhou brothers and half of it at Uncle Chen's house.
After eating, Yang Xiaotao sent the Zhou brothers away, and Uncle Chen drank wine and went to sleep.
When he returned home and looked at the flat courtyard, it would become green in a few days, Yang Xiaotao couldn't help but be excited, and even took Xiaowei out and screamed.
"The weather is just right, so let's take a holiday and rest today."
Yang Xiaotao was lying on the bed, squinting his eyes, wanting to do something in the afternoon.
"By the way, isn't there a fishing technique? Why don't you go fishing? β
Thinking of the shortage of materials in this era, it is even more severe to crack down on speculation.
If you don't do it, you will be charged with the last crime.
But fishing is unregulated.
In addition, you can't always eat secretly, and in the long run, fishing is also the best way to cover up the facts.
Glancing at his credits, he said, "I guess I can use my fishing skills to improve with my credits." β
