Chapter 218: Shrewdness in Business, Kindness in Atmosphere (1/4)
The second day back to Beigang.
Wu Yuan woke up in the morning, and it was gray outside.
I got up and opened the window to see, good guy, the fog was bigger than yesterday in Shanghai.
After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I pushed open the door and saw that the wheat field in front of the vegetable field at the door was not real.
This visibility is twenty meters at best.
In the vegetable garden at the entrance, on the grass, there was a layer of hoarfrost.
It's cold to look at.
I have the impression that in the first two years, I worked as a carpenter in the leaky east house, and I didn't feel how cold it was.
Could it be that there is less physical work and less cold resistance?
It is said that I didn't do less physical work last night, so I shouldn't have done it.
Turning back into the house, I closed the glass door, and suddenly felt that it was not so cold.
Breakfast is millet gruel, with some pimple silk, plus some white flour steamed buns.
Fragrant!
Wu Yuan was halfway through eating, and then he remembered the more than ten tea eggs that Fu Qiu gave him yesterday, and he ate three or four on the way back.
There are seven or eight left.
Place on a pan and serve.
Yang Luoyan tasted one, praised it, and even said that the next time she saw her sister-in-law, she would definitely learn from her.
After breakfast, the fog also cleared a little, and the visibility was a little higher.
Ma Mingchao drove over, picked up the two of them, and went straight to the store in the city.
Since he was in the county seat, Wu Yuan took a look at the heating boiler by the way.
I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it.
Who dares to buy these three productless earthen boilers?
Except for a pressure relief valve, there is nothing temperature control. No one is looking at the side, who dares to burn?
So after looking around, the boiler didn't dare to buy it.
In desperation, I chose an earth-heater stove.
It's stress-free, it's connected to the atmosphere. Usually burn firewood and coal, but you need to replenish the water tank frequently.
Hydration is not a hassle.
The key is safety.
It's a pity that it can only be used for heating, not hot water for bathing.
So Wu Yuan set the earth heater and radiator, and turned his head to find a water heater.
This search almost turned over the entire Beiyin City.
Department stores sell gas water heaters, and the Yuhuan brand produced in Nanjing is not used in rural areas.
What Wu Yuan was looking for was an electric water heater.
According to the impression, foreigners have been using this thing for a long time.
As a result, I searched all over Beiyin, but I was stunned.
I didn't expect that a small problem in later generations has become a big problem now.
Returning to the village with this problem, a phone call was made to Tengda Company and Zou Ning was arranged to have a look at the No. 1 Department Store on Nanjing Road.
Finally found, imported Alstom's electric water heater.
Wu Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, it's good to have it.
Just bring it back next time and put it on.
hung up the phone, and it happened that the old father-in-law Yang Zhishu was also there, and he said disapprovingly: "Look at your idleness, taking a bath, it's a lot of trouble." Go to the village bathhouse to take a soak, and then find someone to rub your back, up and down, refreshed. ”
Wu Yuan smiled and didn't speak.
The public bathhouse in the countryside, he has not not washed.
In his previous life, he also liked to mention skin diseases such as scabies, and that taste, not to mention more ecstasy.
It's just that this happened to a big man like himself.
If it happens to the daughter-in-law with fine skin and tender meat, it will definitely not be bearable.
Fortunately, it is only early winter, and the weather is getting colder, but it is not cold yet.
When the earth heater is installed, the house will take a temporary bath, and it will be a month, and it will be a big problem.
When I come back from Shanghai on the next trip, the water heater will be installed.
When the time comes, it is not difficult to take a pleasant bath at home.
Seeing that Wu Yuan didn't listen, Yang Zhishu didn't say much.
After all, it is also for the happiness of his daughter, and there is no need for him to spare no effort to dismantle the stage.
As soon as the topic changed, I talked about the village running a primary school.
With the business situation of this year's prosperous furniture factory, the village is divided into 20,000 yuan at the end of the year, which is a matter of smiling.
So Gaisuo Elementary School, it's not a big problem.
And the big problem is that there are no teachers.
The county education institute can't even send a teacher with a staff.
Although Yijing Township is next to the county seat, and Liyuan Village is not far from the township, for the teachers in the city, no one wants to come to the poor countryside.
Wu Yuan handed a cigarette to his father-in-law and asked, "Can't you recruit a few private people?" ”
"There are private offices, and it is not difficult to find." Yang Zhishu took a few mouthfuls and said, "Cripple Ge, Dong squinted, they all said that they were going to come." ”
Wu Yuan smiled and said, "There is no normal teacher? ”
"Yes, the daughter of Lao Song in the fourth team of our village, Song Chunhong, has been teaching in Xinzhuang Township Primary School. Every day when the wind comes and the rain goes, I have this opportunity, and I can't wait to come back. ”
Wu Yuan was curious: "Can't you make a braid?" ”
"It's difficult!" Yang Zhishu shook his head helplessly, looking indescribable.
Wu Yuan didn't say much, but proposed: "When the time comes, the village will subsidize more money, don't let the teachers who teach and educate people feel cold." ”
"I knew it was so difficult, I ...... at the beginning"
"Don't do so much, Dad. Running education is a major event that will benefit the present and future generations. ”
"Can I not know?" Yang Zhishu sighed again.
Wu Yuan saw it and couldn't help laughing: "Dad, if there is anything you need help with, just say it." What are you doing in circles with me? ”
was exposed on the spot, and the old branch secretary couldn't help but blush: "It's not that my father's elbow turned out, it's really difficult." Even if the school is built up and the teacher is found, the students' desks and chairs, the teacher's desks and chairs, bookcases and so on......"
Wu Yuan patted his chest and said, "Dad, our furniture factory donated this." ”
"Donate?" Yang Zhishu obviously didn't expect it, "I mean that it will be sold to the school at cost price." ”
"Forget it. No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education, and no matter how hard you are, you can't be miserable for children. ”
The two chatted and discussed, and decided on this matter.
Zhao Guo listened to it on the side, and secretly admired it in his heart.
The boss is a black heart in business, but he has always spared no effort to do good deeds.
Hundreds of sets of tables and chairs, plus more than a dozen sets of desks and chairs, bookcases or something, the material cost alone is a lot of money.
The boss said that he would donate it, and there was no lake at all.
Such an excellent private boss, why fight? Why do you always check people's accounts?
It doesn't make sense.
Not long after Wu Yuan and the old branch secretary finished this matter, Liu Hui called from home and said that radiators and other things had been delivered.
Turning around from the carpentry workshop, he called the old generation, and the two went straight to the house.
Although the old generation is much older than Wu Yuan, Wu Yuan has done this for his family, and he has really never seen it.
Just relying on something that is not much bigger than a coal stove to make a home heat?
However, when he cooperated with Wu Yuan to install the hearth in the corner of the stove room, connect it with the reserved heating pipes, and put dozens of liters of plastic water tank on the wall, he suddenly felt that maybe it could really be done.
The waterway circulation here is well established.
Turn heads into the various rooms, drill holes, turn on radiators and switch valves.
After the installation was completed, Wu Yuan checked it again, and it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.
