Chapter 105: Gramophone

The wooden crate is not large, but larger than the previous one of the ore radios, like a suitcase.

However, this wooden box is not very well preserved, there are traces of being gnawed by rats, and there are some cracks on it, and I don't know where the seller poured it out.

Xu Deyong pointed and said, "Comrade, can you show me this?" ”

After the staff greeted the guests at hand, they smiled and said: "This thing has been around for some years, and it was sent over for sale a few days ago, and the condition is a little bad, and it is broken, and few people have asked." ”

The thing was placed on the counter, Xu Deyong opened it, it was a hand-cranked gramophone from the Republic of China, and there was a coarse-grained round record on the turntable.

Xu Deyong said: "Can I shake it?" ”

"Of course." The staff smiled and said, "Don't look at him like this, the seller has to pay a lot of money." ”

Xu Deyong shook it twice and asked, "How much?" ”

"Ten bucks." The staff said.

Xu Deyong nodded and said: "It's still bad in terms of quality, it's indeed a bit expensive." ”

He shook it twice, it felt very loose, the mainspring inside was not strong, and looked at the tonearm and cartridge again, it should be in good condition, but the stylus is a little worn, but it is not a big problem.

As for other problems, we need to take them apart to see the problem.

It's just that most people can't get the problem of the clockwork inside, and Xu Deyong himself is choking enough, but there are two uncles in his hospital who "help others"!

Others don't have a good chance of fixing it, he does, it's this record, the stylus .......

The staff naturally wanted to make a deal, and seeing Xu Deyong's hesitation, he said: "If you have any concerns, comrade, you might as well say it directly?" ”

Xu Deyong said: "I'm interested in buying it back and repairing it, but there is only one record, and the stylus is ...... worn." ”

The staff said: "As long as you are willing to buy, these are not a problem. ”

After that, he squatted down and searched for it, and quickly found a pack of paper envelopes of records and said: "These are all old records that I received before, you can sell them to you in one piece if you want, and there is also a ...... of a singing stylus removed from the scrap." ”

In the end, Xu Deyong spent thirteen yuan and a half to buy these things, put them on the tricycle with the box, and rode home happily.

With new gadgets to play, what are you doing!

Back in the courtyard, just when it was almost time to eat, I pushed the tricycle into the yard and walked home with my things.

The three mothers, who were cooking, saw him come back from the window, and couldn't help but say to Yan Xie Kuang on the side: "Hey, what are you going to do Brother Yong with again?" ”

Yan Xie Kuang immediately opened the door and ran out to look, only to see Xu Deyong's back, his eyes rolled and said: "In the afternoon, see if Brother Deyong can't go out, if you don't go out, I'll go to see the excitement." ”

The three mothers said: "Take your sister with you." ”

Yan Xie Kuang pouted and said, "I won't take her." ”

Yan Jiedi heard that the aggrieved golden beans were dropped, her parents slammed the door, the three elder brothers were well educated, and at this time, there was a general preference for sons, and the little girl was simply grandma who didn't love her uncle and didn't love her.

Hey, live a little transparent .......

……

In the middle courtyard, the little stick terrier is holding a paper windmill made of old newspapers, running and playing in the courtyard, the paper windmill "whirring" turns, that is, the newspaper is too soft and the paper windmill occasionally turns unfavorably.

Qin Huairu and an aunt were in the sun, sewing and mending, chatting with each other and not having a match, and their eyes swept over the small stick stalk from time to time.

Seeing Xu Deyong coming back with something, he couldn't help but say, "Deyong is back, what is this holding?" ”

An aunt also cast a curious look.

Xu Deyong greeted them with a smile and said, "Hey, an old gramophone I bought from the entrusted store is broken, I thought about buying it and came back to study it." ”

"Gramophone?" An aunt's eyes lit up and said: "It's the kind of disc that can sing and sing!" ”

"Yes, Aunt Yi still knows a lot." Xu Deyong said.

"You can fix this thing if it breaks?" Aunt Yi was surprised.

Qin Huairu's watery eyes also looked over, with a touch of envy in his eyes, and it seemed to be mixed with a little admiration.

The little stick terrier had already run in front of Xu Deyong, looking up at it curiously.

Xu Deyong touched the head of the little stick terrier and said vaguely: "It's hard to say now, I have to think about it, you are busy, I will go back to the house and put my things down." ”

With that, he went home.

This dumpling filling is too much, and it looks like I want to give the urge to poke the ravage.

Xu Nanshi hadn't come back yet, he put down his things, replaced the stove with a new honeycomb coal, and pulled out the seal to let the fire go.

Then he moved the table to the stove, found the tools, rubbed his hands together and began to disassemble the hand-cranked gramophone.

Dumplings I want, craftsmanship also I want, the two can not be both, dumplings and art ...... also the artist.

All machines with barrels, such as phonographs and clocks, should not directly disassemble the movement bridge, but must first loosen the strength of the mainspring.

If it is not loosened, the mainspring remains strong, and when the movement bridge is disassembled, the mainspring suddenly loses its grip and the adjacent gears will collapse.

It will cause damage to the teeth of the gear, and it will hurt people; If it hits the eye, it will directly blind the eye.

Xu Deyong put a strip on the gramophone and dialed the record tray in a clockwise direction with his hand until all the energy on the clockwork was exhausted.

After releasing his strength, he removed the screws and took out the turntable, which was actually similar to a clock.

Clocks have dials, phonographs have turntables, clocks have clock cores, and this also has a core, all of which need to be wound with the help of power .......

The tonearm of this vintage gramophone looks intact, and you have to turn it to find out.

The movement also looks somewhat similar to the clock movement, but it is larger, and the structure and parts inside are also different.

As soon as he "dismembered" the gramophone on his side, Xu Nanshi came back.

She saw Xu Deyong putting the parts all over the table and asked, "What are you throwing back again?" ”

Xu Deyong grinned and said: "Gramophone, you can sing all the time." ”

Xu Nan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Can you keep singing?" ”

She walked over and took a look at it, and suddenly said, "Oh, it's the thing that enlarges the disc, it's not cheap, how much did you spend?" ”

Xu Deyong was already immune, and when he opened his mouth, he said: "This thing is broken, you see that the box is cracked, it didn't cost a few dollars, but if I can fix it, it will be worth it!" ”

Xu Nanshi said: "You may not be able to repair well!" ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "Come on, okay, your boss is worried, I'm hungry." ”

Xu Nanshi left a sentence of "not doing business", and went to cook.

She is now an old lady with hundreds of dollars, a few dollars...... Not less.

But as the old saying goes, "I'd rather buy than buy food", it's better to buy this stuff than to buy pastries or something, and then it's gone.

Xu Deyong didn't care what the old lady thought, put other things aside, "split" the movement again, removed the transmission wheel and other things one by one, put the problematic ones aside, and then opened the upper and lower clockwork boxes again, revealing the clockwork inside.

The mainspring was much larger than the inside of a clock, and was more rigid and elastic, but it had broken into three sections.

Yes, this thing should be handed over to the second master to repair the bangs, although the technology is worse than that of the first uncle Yi Zhonghai, but it is not a big problem to repair a clockwork.

He can do the rest on his own.

Since he was "falsely accused" by himself, the second uncle has kept a lot of low profile, and he still doesn't know that his son sold him.

In the afternoon, I waited for him to get off work and asked him to "contact and contact feelings"!

……

After lunch, Xu Nanshi sat by the stove and watched Xu Deyong repair the gramophone, took a nap, and woke up to go to the neighborhood committee with the mille-feuille bottom he was making.

In the courtyard, Yan Jiekuang and Liu Guangfu saw Xu Nan's going out, and Brother Deyong's tricycle was still parked in the courtyard, so they touched two white potatoes from home, and knocked on the door one by one in the name of roasting white potatoes on the stove and entered the house.

Xu Deyong's three chapters: Don't move, don't make loud noises, don't listen to him, otherwise you will get out of the calf.

A few melon babies immediately nodded their little heads.

Xu Deyong baked sweet potatoes for them, and turned on the ore radio for them, and those who wanted to listen could take turns to listen.

A few melon babies suddenly couldn't think of potatoes!

After a while, the little stick terrier also came in with his little head exposed, and the small bench made by Xu Deyong had been divided, his little eyes blinked, and he lay on the edge of the table with a deflated mouth, tilting his head to watch Xu Deyong clean up the movement of the gramophone, and all the small parts were magical in his eyes.

Although Qin Huairu also wanted to go in and take a look, she didn't dare to go in after looking at Jia Zhang's narrowed little eyes.

In fact, it's nothing to go in, there are several children here, what else can Xu Deyong do?

After Xu Deyong finished arranging, he concentrated on his own things, and the shrapnel with the flying ball on the speed plate had to be changed, and he went back to the grocery store to see if there was a suitable one.

After processing the movement, he also repaired the wooden box, sanded the cracks in the wood with sandpaper, chiseled out a shallow V-shape, smeared with glue, and filled it with sawdust, which was also done where the rats had gnawed.

After drying, it is sanded, and then it is oiled and colored, so that the wooden box can return to its bright .......

Every step is a delicate job if you want to do it well.

During this time, he got up and moved his body, drank tea and rested for a while.

Several children were more comfortable than him, eating fragrant baked white potatoes, taking turns listening to the radio, and looking east and west from time to time in the warm room, but Xu Deyong said something first, and they didn't dare to touch it.

Brother Deyong is usually easy to speak, but he is not ambiguous at all, this stupid pillar has the most right to speak!

I didn't see the child all afternoon, and the people in the courtyard didn't hurry to look around, and what stood out was a Buddhist .......

……

When the sun set, the courtyard sounded the sound of "summoning technique", and hid in Xu Deyong's house to watch the lively melon baby, and then ran home.

Hey, there's something to brag about for a while.

Xu Deyong cleaned up his things, and also came out to stretch his waist to let go.

When an aunt saw him come out, he asked, "Deyong, you are at home for an afternoon, what is that...... Gramophone, has it been fixed? ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Aunt Yi, how can it be so easy to repair this thing, especially these precious things are even more difficult to repair, you think too highly of me." ”

Aunt Yi smiled and said: "That's the same reason, I don't want to wait for you to fix it." ”

Qin Huairu couldn't help but ask, "Is that a bad repair?" ”

At this time, Yi Zhonghai and they came back from work.

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he said: "Huairu, what can't be repaired?" ”

Qin Huairu's eyes changed and said, "It's a bad old gramophone that Deyong bought from the entrusted store." ”

The little stick terrier also said: "Dad, Uncle is amazing, he took ...... apart." ”

Yi Zhonghai's eyes narrowed and said, "Gramophone? You'll have a lot of stuff! ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "It's not as good as an uncle, you are the master, I will disassemble and disassemble it, didn't I ask you for help last time to repair the specific things." ”

Bangs glanced at him expressionlessly, and he was about to walk to the backyard.

Xu Deyong hurriedly said: "Second uncle, wait a minute, you can't always trouble the first uncle, please help fix something this time." ”

Anyway, regardless of whether the bangs should be in the middle or not, he turned around and went back to the house to get the clockwork box.

The corners of his mouth twitched in his bangs, but he still stopped.

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but look at him in surprise, hey, when did Lao Liu talk so well?

Xu Deyong took out the clockwork box and said it to Liu Haizhong, and handed it to him with a smile: "I'm sorry for you, second uncle." ”

"Hmm!" Bangs swayed the score, nodded slowly and took it: "I'll try it." ”

When Xu Deyong heard this, he took out a pack of Pegasus brand cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to him: "The second uncle is also a big man in the factory, so I can't let you work in vain." ”

Seeing this, Liu Haizhong's face turned slightly pale, and he pushed it twice before accepting it: "Don't be so polite next time, they are all neighbors of the same hospital, and I will bring you back after work tomorrow." ”

The specific meaning, the tacit scene between the two laughed, and the bangs went home with the clockwork box.

When Yi Zhonghai returned home, an aunt couldn't help but ask, "Old Yi, can you fix that thing?" ”

"Nonsense, of course I can fix it, and it's better than Lao Liu's." Yizhong Kaido.

An aunt said: "Then why don't you find a courtyard for you to repair?" Is it because of the previous incident, do you still have some opinions? ”

Yi Zhonghai said angrily: "I'm not a roundworm in his stomach, where do I know?" ”

An aunt said: "I don't think that box of cigarettes is cheap...... ”

Yi Zhonghai said: "Okay, as for the two or three cents, let's cook, don't worry about other people's affairs." ”

An aunt muttered, "You still say that I ......." ”

……

At night, Xu Deyong didn't go to the tavern to drink, he drank every day, and it was not a wine Mengzi.

Although the proprietress is good, she can't be greedy!

At home, he reworked every detail of the gramophone to perfection.

The next day, February 1, 56, the first batch of 230 simplified characters was published by the People's Daily, and more and more simplified characters were commonly used in writing.

The simplified characters of this period are called "one simplified", in fact, in the seventies, the state also carried out "two simplified" on this basis.

Compared with the first simplified Chinese characters, and taking into account the fluency and beauty of Chinese character writing, the second simplified characters are only left with simple writing, leaving behind the original structure, without the style of regular script and line calligraphy.

Some characters have removed cumbersome radicals, and some characters even leave only one stroke as a representative.

For example, simplifying "street" to "亍".

The second simplified character only stayed on the stage of history for nine years before it was abolished.

Many changes in history have evolved silently!

Most people, they only know what they are allowed to know, and the saddest thing is the ones who think they know all the .......

It's sad that Xu Yong didn't feel it, he went to the cargo station to work, and felt that he could lie flat if he earned enough money a day.

Finally, the bright green body of the board car attracted attention, pulled a cart of groceries purchased by the owner, went to Zuojiazhuang, and added it back and forth to carry and transport, and passed at noon, earning a piece of five.

In the afternoon, I went to the entrusted store to settle the clock money, removed the 7% handling fee, and got another nine yuan three, and the money to buy the gramophone came back.

I bought some thin shrapnel and tung oil, and went home to .......

Liu Haizhong returned the repaired clockwork box to him after work, and Xu Deyong couldn't wait to install it.

Xu Nanshi, who returned home, watched his grandson pretend, and looked a little nervous.

When the critical time came, Xu Deyong shook the handle, released the brake, and the tray began to rotate, and then he gently put the tonearm that had changed the stylus on .......
