Chapter Ninety-Nine, Pumping Pumps, Watching Jokes
The eight members of the Fifth Design Office have been completely conquered by their strength for many years.
A pair of renderings, a very beautiful rendering, was completely completed in less than an hour.
This strength is simply invincible.
"Team leader, how did you do that? Also, such realistic renderings, I really want to go in and live there."
Chen Xiaoxian's big eyes were full of admiration, and her expression was amazed.
Xia Lan and the other female comrades are similar, especially Hu Shufen, who sighed secretly in her heart, after all, she still doesn't have that luck and blessing.
It's been too good for many years.
At least this stunt, in the design institute, is definitely very popular.
And such a young talent is actually engaged, and the key is to take care of his family.
Are good men from someone else's family?
"Have you forgotten what I just said?" For many years, I had to knock on the table and let them understand it for themselves.
"If you have time to gossip, you have time to ask this and that, why don't you have time for self-improvement? Work hard and don't disturb me reading. ”
Everyone: "."
blatantly touched the fish, and said it, but everyone had nothing to say.
For many years, it didn't matter what their reaction was, just don't disturb him to read.
He read quietly, and it wasn't until he got off work that he cleaned up his desk, and then got up and went home.
When he got home, he jumped to the bottom of the well and continued digging, and the water should be able to come out today.
Sure enough, when Lao Xu and the others returned, the speed increased a lot, and the bottom of the well finally came out.
After so many days of hard work, the well was finally dug.
The eldest Xu Danian was curious, "Third child, can you get your mysterious pump out now?"
As soon as he said this, Lao Xu and Xu Shishi also cast curious glances.
Because the pumps that have been mentioned for many years, oh, automatic pumps to be exact, are quite mysterious.
Anyway, Zhou Hongmei and the others were very curious at the time, and because they were unwilling to disclose it for many years, they were very angry at that time, and they didn't want Xu Laosan to eat.
"Big brother, what are you anxious about? Let's get the well in place first. ”
The well is not just dug and has to be made with stones, extending from the bottom of the well to the mouth of the well.
Some time ago, Lao Xu and the three of them brought back a lot of long stones from outside, and now they can come in handy.
Since the water has already come out, the well must be completely repaired tonight.
Otherwise, when the well is overflowing, it will not be able to do it.
All night, Lao Xu's family was busy.
The neighbors also came to see it, and there was an extra well in the courtyard, and everyone thought that they would take advantage of it when the time came.
The well on the other side of the laundry sink, when there are many people, still need to queue up.
Especially when it comes to laundry, it's troublesome.
For many years, I didn't think much of the sudden fawning of my neighbors, but tomorrow you will know that you really can't use this well.
Besides, he was going to dig a well before, and your neighbors were still taking advantage of the fire to rob him, but he was very vindictive, how could he give them water?
After a while, many years later, I went to the pigeon market again.
Except for buying food and storing it in the bracelet space, I didn't do anything else.
As soon as it came, the pigeon market was so big that it would not exceed 50 people at the peak of its popularity.
Second, there is really no way to do business in this era, even if he has bracelet space, he can't do it.
After all, there is almost no profit from grain, and if you don't do food business, you can't do other businesses at all.
There are so many restrictions that people really can't do anything.
When he had breakfast, he told Qin Huairu for many years that he didn't need to leave him food at noon, and he wouldn't come back to eat at noon.
"And did you bring food stamps and money?" Qin Huairu said with concern: "When I went grocery shopping with my mother this morning, I almost forgot to bring money."
The financial power of the family is currently in the hands of Zhou Hongmei.
In the past, Fan Zhaodi and Hu Meifeng took turns to go to the vegetable market with Zhou Hongmei to buy vegetables, after all, the latter alone could not bring so many vegetables back.
But now, this job has almost fallen on Qin Huairu.
For many years, he persuaded her not to work so hard.
Who knows, she doesn't feel hard at all, and she still enjoys it.
Although the price of vegetables has not changed, she remembers it very clearly, and has summarized a lot of rules.
After all, some dishes will be cheaper for a few cents at the dinner market.
"Don't worry, I'll remember."
After swallowing a mouthful of food for many years, he said, "I want to go to Xidan at noon to buy some materials to make an automatic pump, and then take it back and put it in the well at night, and connect it to the water pipe to use."
"Third uncle, are you making this automatic pump at the unit? Isn't it hard to learn? Can you teach me? ”
Suddenly, Xu Weidong's little guy opened his mouth to ask, which surprised everyone.
Lao Xu was even more relieved, and praised his eldest grandson a few words.
"Third child, if it's not difficult, you can teach Xiaodong, it's rare for him to have such ambitions."
Hearing Lao Xu's words, he said helplessly for many years:
"Dad, even if it's you, you may not be able to learn it, let alone Xiaodong? Do you really think I don't want to teach? ”
When everyone heard this, they were immediately disappointed.
Especially Fan Zhaodi, she was looking forward to it the most just now.
If her son can learn a little bit from his third uncle, it would be very good.
Now it seems that this automatic pumping pump is really not playable by ordinary people.
Back at the design institute, one morning, many years have been fishing again.
This class is really cool.
He can complete tasks very efficiently, and then read a book leisurely, which is really cool.
Chen Xiaoxian and the others are very envious, but they are just envious.
After getting off work at noon, I ate in the canteen for many years, and then went to Xidan.
Xidan is not far from the Fuxing Gate, less than two kilometers away, and many years will soon arrive.
It took more than half an hour and nearly eight dollars for him to procure the materials he wanted.
When he returned to the design institute, he began to tinker.
The automatic water pump is quite simple to make.
But you have to have the tools you need to have at your fingertips.
The principle is very simple, in fact, it is to use the impact force formed by the drop of water to pump water from low to high.
Chen Xiaoxian saw that he was tinkering with something he couldn't understand, so he just asked a few curious questions, but he didn't get a real response, and he was taught a lesson for many years, so he pouted and continued to work.
It took half an afternoon to install the relevant parts for many years, and then it was only necessary to take them home, install them at the bottom of the well, and then connect the water pipes.
As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, the eyes of the neighbors were all focused on him.
"For years, is this what you mean by pumping? I don't look very good, can I really pump water? ”
Aunt Yan sat at the door of her house and asked with a smile.
Aunt Wang next to her also asked curiously, why doesn't it look good? Can it really be pumped?
didn't wait for many years to speak, Zhou Hongmei went back with a word:
"Can you pump water, won't you know later? Who is the yin and yang weird here? ”
The two of them immediately shut up and did not speak again.
The neighbors may not be bad in nature, but who knows?
Based on what I just said, if it's just small talk, I'm afraid it may not be so, right?
For many years, the materials of the pump were resisted to the well in the middle courtyard, and Xu Xiaoqian and a few of their little guys stood next to them and observed carefully.
Not only a few of them, but Liu Guangtian and them also came, and even the deaf old lady, the ancestor, was watching from the side.
Zhou Hongmei drove Liu Guangtian and them to the side, "Go and go, what's there to see?" It's in the way, and when it comes to bumping into it, don't blame us for not reminding us."
Although the fear of the children getting hurt is real, it is more because of the fear that they will steal the teacher.
Although the third child of her family has already said that this thing is not so easy to learn, Zhou Hongmei would rather not let them see it, and also put an end to the risk of being leaked.
For many years squatting next to the well, I didn't care about it at all.
Just get to work.
"Xiaomei, wait a minute, help me hand this to me."
After working for a while, he began to install the well for many years, and asked Xu Wumei to help.
Soon, his feet were split and stuck in the recesses on either side of the well, which had been reserved for the well last night.
Then it's time to work downhole, install the pumps and connect the water pipes.
Before he could finish all this, they were allowed to return.
The courtyard has become more lively.
Not only did He Yuzhu, Xu Damao and other courtyard neighbors come to see the strangeness, but even the neighbors of several nearby courtyards also ran in to see the excitement.
Pumps, running water, all these are novelties in the eyes of the courtyard.
Although the Dongzhimen Water Tower has only been demolished for a long time, not many families could afford tap water before.
To be honest, it wasn't that I didn't think about buying second-hand water pipes from large households that had used tap water before.
But it's long gone.
Why?
Because this year is 1958, at the beginning of the year, because of the problem of steel production, everyone was collecting steel and handing it over to the neighborhood office.
Then there are street offices that use it for refining steel mills to increase steel production.
Therefore, around the courtyard, all the useless iron has basically been pried away, how can there be any left?
However, now it seems that the water pipes made of bamboo are not unusable.
Moreover, because these bamboos are all old bamboos that have grown for many years in the northern land, the hardness is naturally needless to say.
The courtyard was crowded with people, and everyone stood on tiptoe and looked at the well at the door of the ear room.
Lao Xu and his family surrounded the well, which seemed to block the eyes of the outside world.
That is, I didn't know it for many years in the well, and if I did, I guess I wouldn't be able to laugh anymore.
After Fan Guiming and the others got off work, they didn't leave for the first time, and they also sat in the ear room to watch the excitement.
Now that the rebar has been tied, we can start pouring concrete tomorrow.
"Lao Xu, is your third child okay? How long has it been? I haven't done it yet, so I can't do it, so don't do it."
Yan Bugui sat on the bench, like a whole house assembly, watching gracefully.
"What the third master said is right, Xu Laosan is just like the white case in our rolling mill, he loves to talk big, and the cowhide is blown into the sky by him."
Xu Damao next to him also complained cheaply, and He Yuzhu was not happy: "Who are you talking about, Xu Damao?" It's itchy, isn't it? See if I don't beat you to death."
Bai Xian'er means making pasta, He Yuzhu is a cook, and he also likes to talk big, so he immediately took a seat.
The feature film was not released, but He Yuzhu and Xu Damao, the happy enemies, staged a good show for everyone.
The two chased and fought for a while before they stopped under Yi Zhonghai's scolding.
Of course, Xu Damao is the king of the strong mouth, and he was slapped by He Yuzhu, so he muttered quietly at this time.
But when he saw He Yuzhu still waving his slap, he was about to rush over, but he hurried away from the other party.
It was only at this time, many years later, that he returned to the wellhead, looked around, and was startled:
"Hey, is there a general meeting today?"
It doesn't seem right, there aren't so many people at the whole house assembly.
After all, this courtyard is indeed large, and there are more than 100 people in total, all standing in the courtyard, and there is still a lot of spare space.
But now?
Inside and out, it's all human.
"Third brother, they are all bad people who came to see your jokes, hum, especially that Xu Damao, who was still talking cool just now."
Xu Wumei puffed out her little face angrily and said angrily.
"The mouth grows on other people's bodies, and people can say whatever they like" smiled for many years, and then said:
"Besides, isn't he Xu Damao what everyone often talks about, cooking dumplings in a teapot."
"Third uncle, what do you mean by boiling dumplings in a teapot?"
The studious Xu Xiaoman asked curiously, she didn't understand, but her aunt understood, "It's just that there are goods in the stomach, and they can't pour them out." ”
The neighbors around them heard the conversation of several people and couldn't help but laugh softly.
Only Xu Damao's face was as black as ink, but he didn't speak.
As a typical representative of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, Xu Damao has been cleaned up for many years, and he also knows that the latter is very strong, so he has no idea of being tough at all.
As for the one who came to Yin?
I didn't expect it yet, but when he thought of it, or when he encountered the right opportunity, he would definitely not be merciful.
After all, he is a selfish and jealous hypocrite.
"Dad, I've already made a mess here, I'll connect the water pipes later, do the finishing touches, and then you can go to the room and turn on the faucet."
Lao Xu heard the words of many years and responded.
The latter went down to the bottom of the well again, and soon he came up again.
Neighbors craned their necks to see how many years had worked their miracles.
For many years, he smiled and said to his sister and nieces and nephews, "Today, let's also pull our butts with a knife and open our eyes to the big guy, Dad, open the valve and see if there is any water." ”
The last sentence was shouted out loud into the ear room.
In the courtyard at this moment, the big guys are even more excited and looking forward to it, and they all want to find out.
And Lao Xu, who was in the house, unscrewed the faucet valve after hearing the sound.
Suddenly, muddy well water gushed out.
