A few days flew by.

Chen Yi cooked for them while practicing motorcycles.

And Chen Ni and his two uncles have been busy with the dam all the time.

But after a few days of tossing, the dam is about to be built.

They added an extra layer of height to it, reinforced with stone and concrete, which is already strong for such a small dam.

"Can't be wrong, it's better than all of us at home!" Chen Jinhai looked at the results and said with great satisfaction, "Our family is only made of wood, mud and stone, but there is no such good thing as cement. ”

Chen Ni also had a smile on his face, "Uncle, then we have to go get a bamboo, right?" ”

"Well, I'll get bamboo!" Chen Jinhai took the lead, "I've done it, I know how to get this thing." Brother, you go with Koike to get wires. ”

"Done!" Chen Jinshan nodded and said, "Xiao Chi, let's go, let's go get wires." By the way, do you want to hire an electrician? ”

"No, I'm an electrician myself." Chen Ni laughed and said, "Now all we want is to get some wood out and hang the wires." ”

"Let's go!"

In the countryside, other things are lacking, but there is still no shortage of wood and bamboo.

The three of them have a division of labor and are methodical.

To make this kind of wood or bamboo, which resembles a telephone pole, you have to pick the one that is tall enough, dig a deep pit, and bury it steadily in the soil.

Fortunately, this place is not far from their home, maybe more than 2,000 meters.

It took three days, and they had got it all right.

Chen Jinhai has also hollowed out the big bamboo used to connect to the water, and directly connected it to the micro generator.

The principle of the micro-generator is that the hollow bamboo conducts water to the micro-generator, which generates electricity by impact and inputs electricity to the home.

This is how a microgenerator works.

When there was no electricity in the past, this thing was still very practical in a place like the south with a lot of water resources, after all, at that time, many poor places in the south did not have electricity, especially in the countryside, they could only light kerosene lamps.

So some people will buy it and find a place to generate electricity themselves.

Chen Jinhai and both have experience, and Chen Ni is familiar with electrical appliances.

It didn't take long for this side to be picked up.

"Alright, that's all right." Chen Ni looked at the finished things, although his face was full of sweat, but with a smile, "It seems that the house is almost ready, let's not worry about these for now, uncle, go home, when I connect the wires at home, then we can use electricity." ”

The two uncles also had smiles on their faces.

Back at home, Chen Jiansheng and the others were already getting the remaining cement to harden in front of the door.

"Uncle Jiansheng, are you almost ready now?" Chen Ni asked.

"Well, it's all painted inside, and the ground has been hardened for you, you can go in and take a look, this thing is dry." Chen Jiansheng smiled and said, "By the way, maybe the wall hasn't dried yet, you have to be careful not to poke a hole in it." ”

Chen Ni followed the two uncles in and took a look.

Sure enough, after getting it now, I feel that the whole dark room has been lit up a lot.

Chen Ni was very satisfied.

"Can you do it today?" He went out again to ask Chen Jiansheng.

"Yes, I'll finish laying the front for you, then the cement will run out, and our task will be completed." Chen Jiansheng straightened up, looked here, and said with satisfaction, "You are the first one in our village where cement is still paved in front of the door." ”

Chen Ni laughed and said: "After this is paved, we can dry some rice in this yard, and we don't have to go to grab the rice flat and land with everyone." ”

"Then our family can also come over to dry." Chen Jinhai said.

"Uncle, come here with confidence." Chen Ni pointed here and said, "Look, this place is big, you can be more diverse, and you can rest assured when the time comes." ”

Everyone laughed.

After dinner, Chen Jiansheng and their task were completed.

"Uncle Jiansheng, I'll calculate your salary for you." Chen Ni beckoned Chen Jiansheng to come over.

"How is this day calculated?"

"These materials are all provided by yourself, we will take a salary, my master is more expensive, six yuan a day, and the two apprentices are cheaper, four yuan a day. I've been working for your family for seven days! ”

Chen Ni nodded and immediately counted the money to them.

Seventy dollars in total.

Taking the money, Chen Jiansheng had a little more smile on his face.

I took 42 yuan in the past seven days, enough for my family for half a month.

"Little mud, then we'll go."

"Okay, you guys go slowly."

After they left, Chen Ni came to Chen Jinshan and the two of them.

"Uncle, the next thing is to pull the line indoors, I'll do it myself, you have also helped us for a few days, I'll settle it for you......"

"What are you talking about?" Chen Jinshan was smoking, and when he heard this, he glared at him, "He's an outsider, am I an outsider with you?" You can't call me uncle, we're embarrassed to take your money? ”

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that, I mean that you have lost a lot of time to help me, and I have to ......"

"No, I've been helping for so many years, do you still lack this money? Besides, don't you need money to send us radios, fish, meat, cigarettes and alcohol? Chen Jinshan stood up straight and left without looking back.

Chen Jinhai patted Chen Ni on the shoulder and said, "Don't blame your second uncle for being angry, the three of us are people who can eat together, can outsiders compare?" Alright, I'll go home too. ”

With that, he also left.

Wang Fang walked over and said: "The two uncles also feel sorry for you and spent a lot of money, in their eyes, it's okay to collect something from you, just treat it as your nephew to honor them, but it's not okay to collect money, don't take it to heart, when you go buy something to eat and come back, invite the two of them to come over for a meal." ”

Chen Ni nodded, looked inside and said, "Mom, tomorrow I will start wiring, connect the wires in our house, and I will invite them over for dinner when the time comes." ”

"That's right!" Wang Fang smiled and said, "That's okay, your two uncles know your mind." ”

Early the next morning, Chen Ni began to wiring.

It wasn't hard for him, and he had already bought the tools, the wiring and the switches.

Install the gate blade on the outside wall first.

I haven't seen this old-fashioned gate knife for a long time, and I feel a little emotional after seeing it, this is the impression of the times.

After that, the wiring began to be wired inside.

"Brother, how many lights do we have in our house?" Chen Xiaohe, who only felt the electric light in the school in the town, was a little excited, "My room, I need to have one in my room, you hurry up and help me install it, I can review my homework at night." ”

Chen Ni squinted at her and asked, "If you want to say that, after I install it, you have to review it often." ”
