Chapter 42: It's Too Hard

Gu Siwei really hadn't seen such a saw before, the saw body was almost thirty centimeters wide, the middle width was narrower on both sides, even if it was narrow, it had to be more than ten centimeters, there was a wooden handle at each end, the saw blade was soft, and it was directly rolled into a roll, and after straightening, the saw was almost more than two meters long.

"I've never used a saw like this before, have you?"

Seeing Gu Siwei's eyes, Guo Xiangping understood that Gu Siwei didn't use this thing.

"I really haven't seen it," Gu Siwei nodded.

"The same use, practice makes perfect," Guo Xiangping said with a smile.

Gu Siwei said: "I want to use it for a while, maybe a few months, if you want to use it, tell me."

"This thing won't be used for a while, our family used to cut down the big pine, and now the tree is in the country, even if it is cut down, there is no place to sell it, you can't burn firewood, don't worry about using it, it's not a problem" Guo Xiangping waved his hand.

"Do you have an ink fountain here, if you have an ink fountain and borrow it from me, I won't bother the second master," Gu Siwei asked.

Guo Xiangping said: "I don't have it here, but I have it next to my fourth brother's house, I'll bring it to you."

Guo Xiangping didn't ask much, and when he saw that Gu Siwei wanted to use an ink bucket, he went to his cousin's house next door and took an ink bucket for Gu Siwei.

With everything in mind, Gu Siwei put the saw on his shoulder, carried the axe in his hand, and took the ink fountain with refilled ink, left Guo Xiangping's house, turned west and walked towards his silver pine cliff.

When he arrived at Silver Pine Cliff, Gu Siwei began to pick trees, he didn't know much about wood, and he didn't know what wood was the best to make a house, but he also felt that wood seemed to be as hard as possible.

Based on this principle, Gu Siwei began to pick hardwoods to plant in space.

Simply tried with an axe, and his luck was good, and he found a very hard wood directly on the mountain behind the silver pine cliff, and there was a metallic sound when the axe cut it.

However, although he found it with hard wood, greater difficulties appeared in front of him.

He doesn't have the ability to work with this kind of hardwood, whether it's an axe or a saw, he can't do anything with hardwood.

It's not that there is no way, it's just an axe to go down, there is only a small groove on the wood, this thing wants to be processed into materials, Gu Siwei thinks it will take at least a month.

So when will the house be built, you can't build a house now, and live in it in a few decades, Lao Gu doesn't have the patience.

Eventually, we had to go back to pine, which was relatively easy to process compared to hardwood.

Wood is naturally not a problem for Gu Siwei, just find a branch to water in the space and insert it into the ground, and the pine planted is almost the same thickness and height, as if the roots are standardized and produced.

Wood has, but now can not be further processed, Gu Siwei is playing machine tools, for the material or understand some, although I can't recognize a lot of wood, but also know that the wood before use, to be aged for a period of time, it is best to dry naturally, so that it is not easy to deform in the future.

After getting a batch of tree trunks, peeling off the bark and throwing them in the space to wait for them to dry, Gu Siwei found time to deal with other things.

What's the matter?

One is to go to the factory, his family owes Hu Yanqiu a favor.

said that I want to send some pheasants and ducks to your family, I can't break my promise, people have helped so much.

The second is that I still want to go there to sell something, and of course, I have to take out the wheat from the space and go to the town to make flour.

In short, it's all about things at hand.

Pheasants and other game meat are not difficult to get now, after catching a few times, I have caught a little experience, and I know where these things will be found, so it is much easier to find than at the beginning.

The wild boar will not be brought this time, but the pheasants and ducks will be brought a little more, and this thing is easier to sell than the wild boar.

Don't look at the wages of the workers now who take about 30 yuan, they feel that their lives are pitiful, but they don't know that the current workers have no place to spend their money.

The second is that they really don't have anything to buy, and the grain and oil are all received according to the book, and it is not easy for you to buy more.

You can buy candy and daily necessities at the store, but if you want to buy food, you don't have it, unless you buy finished products in the canteen store, pure grain can not be sold, and you still have to use money to use food stamps if you want to buy it.

However, the supply of factories there is better than that of ordinary cities, so the living conditions of workers in the mountain factories are generally better than those in the city factories, and their pockets are more abundant.

This is also easy to understand, the factories that moved to the mountains are all fragrant and sweet, and it is normal to be treated well.

When I returned to the village, I went to the machine first, and went to the village to open a letter of introduction, Gu Siwei took the letter of introduction, and used the space to jump and give the noodles to the machine.

When I came back, I saw a group of men, women and children in the village all gathered at the door, and it was as lively as the New Year.

Someone from afar saw Gu Siwei coming over and immediately greeted him.

"Brother Siwei, go to the movies?"

Gu Siwei was wondering what these guys were going to do, he really didn't expect these people to make such a big fuss and actually watch a movie.

"Watching a movie?" Gu Siwei was directly dumbfounded.

"Yes, go to the movies, isn't the factory showing movies over there? It just so happens that we are going to leave now, and by the time the movie starts at seven or eight o'clock in the evening, it will be ......."

The one who spoke was foaming at the mouth, as if watching a movie was a big deal.

"I'm not going now, let's go first, oh, yes, Sicui."

Gu Siwei remembered that Sicui at home didn't know if he wanted to go to the movies, so he said.

"Sicui is at home, you didn't say where she dared to go" Wu Meiling was already preparing to set off with a few of her children at this time, and when she heard Gu Siwei say this, she replied.

Gu Siwei patted his head when he heard this: "Look, I forgot about this, you wait."

After speaking, he trotted back to his small courtyard, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Sicui stretching out his head, standing behind the fence and standing on tiptoe at the team in the village ready to go to the movies.

"If you want to go, go for it".

Seeing Sicui's appearance, Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Sicui shook his head: "I don't want to go."

Gu Siwei didn't know what this girl was thinking in his heart, he felt that he had a generation gap with this little girl, and he couldn't understand many things.

He didn't understand, he didn't want to understand, and said directly: "If you want to go, don't be awkward, go to the movies, broaden your horizons, and I'll go in the afternoon."

"Then I'll be with my brother," Si Cui said immediately.

Where did Gu Siwei dare to let her go with him, so he said: "You go with Sister-in-law Misuzu, I still have to bring things here, and there are a lot of things, besides, I can walk faster alone, take you to miss the time, you follow them slowly."

Hearing Gu Siwei say this, Sicui didn't dare to say anything, she now understands that sometimes this cheap brother is very domineering, and he is not allowed to go against his will.

Sicui is still happy to be able to go to the movies, because she is only a ten-year-old child no matter how she says it, and it is her nature to be lively, not to mention that movies are extremely attractive to everyone now.

It's a bit like fans in later generations seeing idols, and their brains are a little abnormal.

cleaned up and brought Sicui a little food, the cakes couldn't catch up today, so Gu Siwei prepared some of his homemade broken persimmon cakes for Sicui, and Sicui brought some potatoes for himself to do, which can be regarded as making up the dry food for the day.

handed Sicui to Wu Meiling, and Gu Siwei gave a few words of instruction and returned to his small courtyard.

There is no way to take out the food, and he is not ready to take it out, maybe in a few days the weather will be warm, there will be insects, which is like a good space, it will not rot for ten thousand years, at most it is just dehydration.

At nine o'clock, the crowd of moviegoers set out, and the village was suddenly empty, not to mention people, not even a few dogs were left, only a few old people really didn't have the strength to go to the movies, squatting under the walls of their houses and basking in the sun.

Gu Siwei waited for a while, and when it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, he used the space to start jumping, which was like driving a seventy-yard car, and I don't know how much faster it was than walking.

So Gu Siwei was the last to come, standing on the hill outside the factory before the sun set.

Hiding and taking out the things in the space, six pheasants and ducks were packed in a sack, Gu Siwei threw it directly on his shoulder, and walked down the mountain.

"Young man, what's in your sack?"

As soon as she stood on the cement road, there was a sharp-eyed aunt who saw the sack on Gu Siwei's back, which was obviously filled with living creatures, and listening to the sound, she knew that it was either a duck or a chicken.

Auntie didn't care if these things brought by Gu Siwei were for sale, and asked directly.

When Gu Siwei heard this, he originally had the intention of selling, so he said: "The pheasants and ducks you caught, do you want them?" ”

"I'll see!"

The aunt originally had such a thought, so she asked Gu Siwei to open the sack and let her take a look.

Gu Siwei naturally opened the sack for the aunt to see, who knows, as soon as the aunt stretched out her head, she didn't know how it dropped, and instantly squeezed seven or eight aunts from the side, as if the aunts would teleport.

"How did you sell it!"

Seeing so many people, the first aunt immediately reached out and held down one of the fattest pheasants.

"Four cents a pound, but you have to add some tickets, cloth tickets, industrial tickets, if you buy it with a meal ticket, don't need a ticket, just give a five-cent meal ticket......."

Meal tickets are a little discounted compared to industrial tickets and cloth tickets, and Gu Siwei asked for some.

However, here Gu Siwei has experienced the function of meal tickets, and prefers convenient meal tickets, which are like money in the future here (you can buy everything else except food).

Meal tickets can buy a lot of things, which is also the welfare of this factory to workers, in a sense, the small piece of leather meal ticket here is more useful than money, and it is more useful.

"Young man, you're too unrealistic, and the price is too expensive!"

The aunt was a little unhappy when she heard this, and felt that Gu Siwei's things were too expensive.

The aunt next to her also shouted expensive.

Gu Siwei put on a very helpless look with a bitter face: "There is no way, now I have to risk my life to catch this thing, I also want to be less, but catching these things is time-consuming and laborious, four or five of us go into the mountains, and stay in the ice and snow for several days to have this income, and besides, this thing is not weighed, one is only one or two catties, even if it is all sold, it will be less than a dollar per person, you look at it as a person who gets a salary, how to say it a day, you have to make a dollar, we only earn a dollar in the past three or four days, it is not easy to ......."

Selling things has to learn to be miserable, this set of work Gu Siwei is not familiar but not bad, and after a few decades, he has to sell miserably to participate in a singing competition, not to mention selling miserably on short video media, he has seen more, and naturally he has some experience, not to mention that Gu Siwei has done live broadcasts.

When Gu Siwei said this, all the aunts actually felt a little unbearable, and they all felt that this child was too difficult.
