The worst has happened!

Of the six detonators, only five times rang, and one did not.

"What to do, Uncle Yanqiang?" Wang Manyin asked with a worried face.

"What else can I do, wait...... When will it ring, and when will it pass......" Wang Yanqiang was not surprised. It's normal for people to have explosions and encounter accidents along the way.

Hearing their conversation, the rest realized that there was a problem with one of the detonators.

At this time, Wang Junxiang asked a question: "Why don't you keep ringing?"

"Then I'll send you to EOD!" Wang Yanqiang replied with a smile.

"I don't dare ......."

This guy shrank his head and waved his hand again and again, looking more cowardly than Wang Manyin.

"Then you ask, why are the young people in our village more and more cowardly. Don't even think about it...... Let's set up a few square flags, and I'll line up the squibs later!"

When he said this, Wang Yanqiang did not hesitate at all.

There are generally two situations in which a squib appears, the first is that the explosives in the fuse are uneven, causing them to extinguish or smolder during the combustion process.

This is also the most dangerous ...... If the person is on his back, just past the exclusion, the result is that the detonator explodes.

The other is that the fuse and the detonator are not in good contact, and the danger is slightly less. As long as the two are not in contact when defusing the explosion, it is sufficient.

Of course, Wang Yanqiang knew that there was danger, but he participated in the whole process of installing the explosives just now, and only he knew the general situation.

Let others go, he is not at ease.

Zha Fang Qi is popular in the vicinity of the Shibijie Commune and is the best choice for foreign workers in the fields.

Or someone jokes about it, "A game of chess, a bag of cigarettes." Two games of chess, grinding for half a day".

This kind of game doesn't require any preparation, just pick up a piece of ginger stone and draw a square on the ground. It is divided into five parties and seven parties...... The two ways of playing are similar, except that the number of grids is different.

Six people, two by two.

Wang Manyin picked Wang Yanqiang's game, and at first he was worried about the squib and was a little absent-minded. But soon immersed in the chessboard.

The two sides come and go, and each other wins and loses.

After a few rounds in a row, Wang Yanqiang asked out loud, "Manyin, how many rounds have you had?"

"There are more than a dozen rounds, right?"

Wang Manyin didn't count the specific number of rounds, but he felt that the time was not short.

"No, I'll go EOD." Wang Yanqiang said, throwing the lump in his hand to the ground.

"Uncle Yanqiang, do you want to wait no longer? Maybe it'll ring soon."

Wang Manyin asked with some concern. "Don't wait, there's enough time, it's going to ring early......

Next, Wang Yanqiang asked the others to wait in a safe place, while he cautiously walked towards the quarrying area.

Seeing the other party walk away, Wang Manyin and the others were also worried.

It can't be helped, it's a matter of human life.

Wang Qingming raised his hands and kept waving them, and whispered in his mouth: "Dragon Lord, Sanqing Ancestor, you open your eyes and see. Let Yan Qiangping arrange for the squib to be removed safely, and I will steam jujube cake for you next year! Jujube cake, sweet and sweet, Guanyin Bodhisattva is safe!"

Wang Manyin was speechless when he heard it: When is it, this person is still worshipping God with his whole chain.

However, everyone's attention was focused on the distance, and no one blamed Wang Qingming for his inappropriate words.

Instead, Wang Yanqiang leaned over to the unexploded detonator and took a look, and then scolded: "Who is responsible for the detonation in the fourth position, *** ancestor!"

"What's wrong, what's wrong? It seems to be Brother Junxiang!" Wang Manyin recalled carefully and replied out loud. z.br>

"This cowardly day didn't light it at all, and I was scared of Lao Tzu in a cold sweat just now." Wang Yanqiang looked at the complete fuse and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Didn't you explain that you didn't light it, and you want to return together?" Wang Junxiang weakly argued.

"You didn't light it, just told us about it, it's a net delay." Wang Yanqiang spoke, re-struck a match, and then hurried back.

"Hurry, hurry

I thought it was lit,"

Wang Junxiang did a good job during training, but he was scared when he saw the real chapter. At that time, he saw several fuses around him smoking, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly poked the cigarette butts up and ran back.

As for whether it was lit or not, he didn't see it clearly.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong this time, and there was another explosion, and the work of blasting the stone was called to a perfect end.

Then they drove two donkey carts to the edge of the cliff to load stones.

At this time, Wang Manyin once again showed his ability. He picked up a hundred and ten pounds of stones and threw them one after another.

The dirt road is not easy to walk, and the two cars are loaded with a maximum of 1,000 pounds of stones.

When there are potholes on the road, the donkey can't pull it at all, and a few people need to pout their butts to push the cart behind.

Four or five miles away, six people were stunned for hours.

When Wang Manyin and the others arrived at the construction site to unload the truck, Zhao Jianhai appeared, still holding a piece of paper in his hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in order to cheer you on, I specially composed a poem called "The Most Beautiful Worker". In this way, I would like to praise the glorious and great laborers of our Jar Village!"

Before everyone could react, Zhao Jianhai had already recited in a high-pitched voice: "Ah, the cold winter is gone, and spring is coming! The chests of the members of the second team of Jar Village have risen up, and the enthusiasm of the members of the second team of Jar Village has risen! …… We stood on a high mountain beam and looked to the east......

The poem is well written, but it sounds awkward to read it from Director Zhao's mouth, as if it was deliberately disgusting to everyone.

Wang Manyin felt his teeth tingle, and the stone he had just lifted almost came off.

Wang Yanqiang next to him also pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "This white, it's useless to clean up these things. The Squib should have let him ...... just now."

Crops on the Loess Plateau are cultivated as in most parts of the north, generally three crops in two years. After harvesting wheat, peas, and rape, autumn crops such as millet, buckwheat, and corn are planted. Therefore, there is a saying that "millet yellow seed wheat, wheat yellow seed millet".

In addition, the general production team will also reserve some spring land.

When the weather is warm, plant beans, sweet potatoes, artichokes, etc.

There are more than 50 households in the second team of Jarzi Village, and there are more than 100 male and female laborers.

Now that spring plowing has begun, except for a few dozen people left on the construction site, the remaining laborers have been sent to the fields to be busy. Therefore, the second team can hardly see idlers now, which makes Zhao Jianhai's behavior particularly dazzling.

After reading a poem full of emotion, everyone should do what they should do, and not a single one applauded.

Zhao Jianhai put down the paper, pretended to ask Wang Lianshun a few questions about the project, and then left in a gloomy manner.

After the two carts of stones were unloaded, it was almost time to eat.

Wang Shouchang took several mothers-in-law and aunts in the village to the construction site early in the morning, carrying wattle baskets and wooden barrels.

At noon, the artichoke stewed wild goose, plus the corn nest.

A wild goose chops a bar and chops a maximum of six or seven meats, dozens of people on the construction site, and it is quite good for one person to be able to divide a few pieces.

But the corn nest is enough...... Wang Lianshun arranged for four women to be busy from the morning, steaming five major wattle baskets.

Wang Manyin picked stones for a long time, and he was hungry and grunting.

When the meal was ready, he used chopsticks to string four corn nests, sat on the yellow earth and ate them.

I put a piece of wild goose meat in my mouth, and it was salty!

Of course, he has the credit for this.

No way, Wang Manyin made air-dried geese for the first time, and he had no experience. Afraid of spoiling the meat, I can only add more salt to it.

But everyone is doing manual work, and it's good to eat salty, otherwise there is no energy.

After an hour's rest in the afternoon, Wang Yanqiang took a few people to the back of the village to set off artillery and blast stones.

This time there were no incidents, and all six detonators went off.

***

In the morning, Wang Manyin had just arrived at the construction site and was about to report to Wang Yanqiang, when he was called to the side by Wang Lianshun.

"Manyin, I borrowed a few meat tickets from the educated youth. You know someone in the supply and marketing cooperative, can you give our second team some meat.

There is only one wild goose left, and I can eat it for a day at most tomorrow."

In these days, if there is no relationship, you may not be able to buy meat with a meat ticket.

In addition to the New Year's holidays, food stations generally kill one pig every day.

Now people are reluctant to feed pigs, and pigs are relatively thin.

looks at the big skeleton, but it's a belly, and you can't kill the meat at all. A pound of woolly pigs can generally produce six taels of meat has been calculated.

A pig of one hundred and fifty catties can produce a maximum of 100 catties of meat.

There were so many units in the commune, and each of them had to leave a certain "internal share". Just do the math, and half a pig will be gone.

If you can get the window of the food station to sell to the outside world, it is very good to have forty or fifty catties.

There are more than a dozen villages below the Shibijie commune, each with a few hundred people. In the end, each village can get two catties of meat every day.

When it comes to individuals, they don't even have a penny of meat.

And that's not even counting the educated youths in the villages...... They all have meat tickets in their hands, so naturally they won't waste it.

So if any family wants to buy meat, they will go to the food station early and queue up. A little later, you can't even see the bone slag.

But...... This is just for the general public.

"Uncle Lian Shun, you can definitely get meat, I'm afraid you won't get much." Wang Manyin hesitated and replied. He asked Guo Chaowang to say that he would definitely be able to get a few catties of meat.

This battle against the earth dam will take at least two months, and a few catties of meat are a drop in the bucket.

It's the fat pig raised in his own space, which has grown more than 100 catties in more than three months, and can almost be killed.

Of course, Wang Manyin didn't plan to make a contribution.

I got so much meat back at once, and I couldn't tell the source at all. It doesn't work to say that you got it from a food station...... People only need to inquire about it, and they will immediately notice the abnormality.

Or kill the pig later and eat it slowly.

"In that case, you can buy as many as you want, and I'll figure out how to do the rest. No, find a few people to go to the Dongla River to catch fish. Although there are many small fish bones, they can also allow the laborers to deal with a mouthful. It's really hard to do such heavy work without meat......

Wang Lianshun scratched his scalp with sorrow.

"Uncle Lian Shun, I have thought of a way." Wang Manyin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"What's the way, tell me quickly?"

"Fight the wolf! A few days ago, I took the educated youths to the Wolf's Den Mountain to chop firewood, and I saw wolves in the cliff ditch!"

"Is this going to work? The wolf is not a dead thing, it stays there all the time. Besides, even if you find the wolf's den, you can't do it, this thing can be refined, and when you see people running away, where will you have a chance to fight!" Wang Lianshun hesitated for a moment and asked rhetorically.
