After turning around in the pile of textbooks, the pile of "miscellaneous books" on the other side was left by Chen Fan for himself, so he didn't need to read more.

At most, if there are many books, or some books that Chen Fan is not interested in, he can take out these books and fill them in the reference room of the brigade headquarters, which can be regarded as a small library in Lujiawan.

So Chen Fan skipped here, took them to the electronic and mechanical parts on the other side, pointed to a mess of rags and said, "Let's say okay first, this gramophone is mine, you can't ask for it!" ”

Everyone's eyes wide, gramophone? Where?

Safely picked up the copper horn and shook it at him, "You can't be talking about this thing, right?!" ”

Ye Shubao leaned over, took it in his hand and raised it, his face was full of strangeness, "A broken horn, it's a gramophone?" ”

Chen Fan smiled proudly, and then smug smiled.

Then he was kicked in the thigh by Xiao Liewen, "You are talking." It's the same as the national army. ”

Chen Fan took two steps forward, turned out the body of the gramophone from the pile of rags, and a paper package of parts, and said with a smile, "The original gramophone is broken, but when I fix it, I can play the record." ”

Safety looked left and right, "Where's the record?" You fart without a record. ”

Chen Fan looked at him speechlessly, "You are also a cultural person, can you speak more civilly?" ”

Xiao Liewen bit the cigarette stick, but there was no smoke in it, they had already extinguished the cigarette before entering the house, and there was no smoke to smoke, so they were unhappy, and immediately asked with a black face, "Lao Tzu is not a cultural person." What about records? No record you fart. ”

Chen Fan shrunk his neck and silently took out a bundle of boxy paper bags from the corner, "This is a record." ”

It's not easy to find these records.

The records of the Republic of China period are different from the current new records, although they are all vinyl, but the records of the Republic of China period are as big as the plate, or even larger than the plate, but now the plate is so small, Chen Fan does not know if it can be used, so he tried to find a batch of old records from the Republic of China.

Now what he took out was a thick stack of "plates".

This stack of old records also came from several places, some of them were found in a waste recycling company, Lao Yang helped find them, and they were pressed in the corner for many years, and I don't know if they could be used, some of them were bought in thrift stores, probably maybe they might still be useful, and some of them were turned out by Jiang Tiantian from home.

In her words, the gramophones at home were all smashed, and it was useless to keep these vinyl records, but her mother was reluctant to throw them away, so she simply brought them to him and showed them to his sister.

It's hard to put things together!

But others don't know how difficult it is for him to find these records, and the safety is still coaxing, "Then you should hurry up and fix it, and try to put a record after repairing." ”

Although the production team and the commune had record players, and a short segment was played on the radio every day, they were tired of listening to those songs.

No matter how good a song is, who will not get tired of listening to it for several years or even more than ten years in a row?

What's more, the tunes of these songs are almost the same, and in comparison, the old songs of the Republic of China period are more attractive.

is the same as Teresa Teng in the early 80s, she is so different and naturally liked.

As a result, Chen Fan smiled, put the vinyl record aside, pointed to a pile of mechanical parts next to him and said, "It's okay to assemble the record player first, then these two diesel engines can only wait." ”

As he spoke, he was going to move the body of the phonograph.

"Slow !!"

Secretary Yang roared, grabbed Chen Fan's arm, and asked with a serious face, "What did you just say?" ”

Chen Fan smiled and blinked, "I said it's okay to assemble the record first." ”

Captain Zhang dragged him from the other side, "No, next sentence." ”

Chen Fan, "Oh, then these two diesel engines can only wait." ”

Gan!

Everyone went crazy in an instant.

Secretary Yang, Captain Zhang, Xiao Liewen, Ye Shubao, Captain Yang, Accountant Liu, and Custodian Huang all ran to the pile of mechanical parts, staring at a pile of rags like a scanner, "Where, where?" ”

Safely crouched down and tried to remember the structure of the diesel engine, "Ah, this is a fuel tank, right?" ”

Chen Fan, "This is a water tank. ”

Zhang Wenliang and Zhang Juemin quickly approached him and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you say that these things can assemble two diesel engines?" ”

Chen Fan shrugged, "You didn't ask either." ”

The two of them were speechless, you made a bunch of rags back, what the hell is for?!

Then I silently lamented in my heart that if I missed such important information, I would definitely be criticized.

Diesel engines!

It is a universal power equipment, plus drill pipes to drill wells, plus propellers to drive boats, plus bearings and tires that are tractors, plus pumps to pump water, plus ......

Then I saw Chen Fan being swept over by Xiao Liewen, "Hurry up, install one and take a look." ”

Chen Fan gestured, "No problem." ”

Immediately take out a bag of parts first.

This is what he later bought from the special hardware accessories store, with all kinds of rubber pads and screws. The mechanical parts and accessories in the scrap yard are all bulk goods, and only large items are left, and these small parts need to be bought by themselves.

With the cooperation of everyone, Chen Fan quickly assembled the two diesel engines.

It's a pity that there is no diesel, so I can't try it for the time being.

Despite this, everyone looked at the two diesel engines and was reluctant to blink their eyes.

In fact, the diesel engine is not expensive, the brand-new single-cylinder diesel engine only costs more than 2,000 yuan, and the second-hand one is even only 8 or 900, which is not as expensive as Chen Fan's house.

And the village is not without diesel engines, in the 10th team of oil mills, there is a small diesel generator, which provides power for the machines of the oil mill and cotton mill.

But in the whole Lujiawan, there is only one small diesel generator, which is not only pitiful in terms of small power, but also cannot be diverted for other purposes.

First, no one will modify it, and second, this machine is specially approved by the Commune, and if it is diverted for other purposes, the Commune should be held accountable.

As for buying a new diesel engine, it's not impossible, but what about the approval?

Diesel engine is industrial equipment, which requires special approval, where can you buy it without approval?

Only second-hand ones can be bought!

But everyone wants second-hand diesel engines, when will it be Lujiawan's turn?

As a result, to this day, the production team still has only that diesel engine.

On the contrary, in some areas in the north, because the main industrial bases at that time were in the north, most of the output of diesel engines was left in the local area, and the state supported the agricultural development of poor areas, so it was more convenient to buy diesel engines.

Some of the production teams over there were almost all equipped with small agricultural equipment such as tractors and harvesters, and they had a better life than the workers in the city.

Well, it's those production teams that can be seen in the newspapers, if you look for chronological documents, they are the ones who have the most books and newspapers!

All in all, at this time, Secretary Yang and the others saw these two diesel engines, and their eyes were red.

After looking at it for a while, Captain Zhang suddenly grabbed his body and looked at Chen Fan, smiling like a flower, "Xiao Chen, these two machines are for the team headquarters, right?!" ”

Chen Fan hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no, I can only give one at most, and I can use the other one." ”

Everyone looked at him together, and Secretary Yang glared and said, "What use do you want?" ”

Chen Fan squatted down, patted a machine, and said with a smile, "I want to dig a deep well next to it, add a set of pumps, and build a small water tower." ”

Small water towers?

Now even the safety is shocked, "You want to get tap water?" ”

At present, the whole Nanhu commune is still basically in a state of using natural water, and the rural production teams use water from the nearby river, and the units and residential areas in the town use pressurized water wells, or water tankers pump water from the river to the big pool, where the residents use taps to receive water.

Not only Nanhu, but the entire Yunhu area is in a similar situation.

Even in the big city of Shanghai, the days of using water tankers to pull water lasted until the mid-to-late 80s.

At that time, many residents living in the alleys of the old city lived on the old well water, which was the kind of old well that had only one hole, threw a bucket into it, and then pulled it up by hand.

Where there are no old wells, they are all kept by water tankers. Two truckloads of water are pulled to the pool in the middle of the residential area every day, and each household depends on this pool of water for a day.

There are only two units in Nanhu Commune, one is the commune government, and the other is the commune's largest enterprise, the "water transport company", which has built its own small water tower, pumped water from a deep underground well, injected into the top of the water tower, and then transported water to each household through natural pressure.

(In the past, the small water tower, the top of the cement part was the water tank)

The principle of the water tower is very simple, it is to use the pressure difference formed by the high and low altitude to supply water. The role of the water tower is not simple, it is closely related to the lives of residents, the first is water storage, which plays a role in regulating and supplementing water sources when the water supply of the urban water system is insufficient.

The second is to use the height advantage of the water tower to automatically send water, so that the tap water has a certain water pressure head.

In the era when the water pipe network was not yet popular, there was no running water in some places, and small water towers that could pump groundwater from the ground became the best choice for water supply in many units or places.

If Lujiawan wants to build a small water tower, it will be the third one in Quannamhu Commune to use tap water, can they not go crazy?!

Captain Yang reacted immediately, and hurriedly raised his hand to say, "Our team paid for the construction of the small water tower, so Xiao Chen doesn't need to pay for it!" ”

As long as this water tower can be built and connected to the water pipes to every household, everyone will have access to running water.

How can this kind of good thing be enjoyed by Chen Fan alone?!

Must share!

And Chen Fan is in the 6th team, and every household is next to each other, and it doesn't take much trouble to pull the water pipe, his old Yang has always been careful in his calculations, can this kind of good thing be let go? !

He didn't want to let it go, and neither did the leaders of the brigade headquarters.

Captain Zhang immediately glared and said, "You have a water tower for yourself, and you are not afraid of dying!" ”

Then he waved his hand, "This matter is not negotiable, the small water tower can be built, but it must be built in the middle of the production team, so that all teams can enjoy it." ”

Captain Yang didn't object either, anyway, as long as Team 6 could use tap water.

But Chen Fan said, "Captain, how much does it cost to build a small water tower that can be used by the whole brigade?" You have to think about it, this is more than ten miles from south to north, and you have to lay water pipes to every household, no matter how much you save, this money is not a small number.

What's more, the supply of more people, the capacity of the small water tower will increase, originally only used to build three floors, may have to build six floors, originally only used to occupy two points of land, may become one acre.

This building is a system project, if a place is bigger, the whole thing will become bigger, and then it will not be a matter of one or two thousand yuan, and it may not be able to beat one or two thousand.

A single water tower costs so much money, plus more than a dozen miles of water pipes are laid, and there are connections to every household, how much do you calculate? ! ”

This call blocked several leaders of the brigade headquarters into speechlessness.

Secretary Yang looked at the safety, and saw the safety pursing his lips and nodding slightly, indicating that what Chen Fan said was right.

He looked at Captain Yang again, and couldn't help but scold, "Could it be that such a big good thing can only be cheaper for your 6 teams?!" ”

There are 12 squads in the whole production team, so you can eat tap water, do you want fairness and justice?

As for saying that the water tower was built somewhere else and not used by Team 6, this kind of genius idea would never have come to their minds.

Secretary Yang was angry, but Captain Yang, Accountant Liu, and Custodian Huang laughed together.

Yang Chuanfu said with a smile, "Secretary, you can't say that, doesn't it happen that there is a Xiao Chen in our team, he is from our 6th team, and he just happened to get a diesel engine back, and he happened to know that he could build a water tower, it's a complete coincidence, it's not cheap." ”

Keeper Huang grinned and nodded, "We just happen to have this condition, we can take the first step, but it's nothing." ”

Accountant Liu, "You see that there are so many units in the town, not only the water transportation company and the commune government have running water, we can't say that the commune does not emphasize fairness and justice, right?" ”

Captain Zhang took a bite with a dark face, "Phew, you are just a duffle, you are eating alone, you are ......"

Chen Fan silently pondered on the side, and then said, "The small water tower of the commune government and the water transport company can only supply their own units, because they have a large number of people, and if they supply to other units, the capacity of the small water tower will not be enough." However, there are only 47 households in our 6 teams. ”

At this time, Captain Yang suddenly interjected, "Counting your household, there are already forty-eight households. ”

Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes." ”

Then he continued, "Generally speaking, a small water tower with the smallest capacity can store 20 to 30 tons of water, and a little larger can store about 50 tons of water, and with the current household water consumption, it can supply more than 100 households, so in addition to 6 teams, you can also supply one more team." ”

Secretary Yang and Captain Zhang are right, it is easy to choke on eating alone, if you find a team to share the burden, Team 6 will not become the "target of everyone", and the "jealousy" of other teams will also be relegated to "envy".

After a pause, he looked at Captain Zhang and Captain Ye, and said with a smile, "I want to add another section of thick water pipe, which team will supply this extra water, and which team will bear the money for laying the water pipe." ”

Anyway, the diesel engine was brought back by itself, and the 6 teams had to be wiped out, and the pipes in the team were naturally borne by the team, and if other teams also had tap water, the extra part would definitely only be theirs.

The "team contracting system" of the production team, accounting is so simple.

When Chen Fan's voice fell, Captain Zhang immediately said, "The team headquarters is in the 5th team, and the 5th team is also close to the 6th team, so it is more cost-effective to get a water pipeline to pass through, so I think the 5th team will be settled." ”

Ye Shubao's lips moved twice, but in the end he still didn't speak.

If the distance is close, the 7th team where his family is located is also counted, but what Captain Zhang said is also reasonable, after all, the team headquarters is in the 5th team, if someone from the commune or other production teams comes over and sees that the team headquarters is actually connected to running water, then Lu Jiawan's face is also light!

At this time, Secretary Yang thought for a while and said, "When the production team has the conditions in the future, it will definitely have to give the whole team tap water, and this intermediate pipeline will still be borne by the team department, which can be regarded as a signal to the other teams, telling them that this small water tower is not the private property of the 5th and 6th teams, but the current conditions of the brigade headquarters are limited. ”

When the others heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads again and again.

Captain Zhang has no opinion, the 5th team can save a sum of money, and he can't wait for it.

Therefore, following the "Lujiawan Primary School Expansion Project", the team headquarters, together with the 5th and 6th teams, jointly passed the "Small Water Tower Tap Water" project.

Chen Fan found a blank piece of paper, drew a half-cut map of Lujiawan on the paper, and then drew a circle in the middle of the main road, and said, "Since we want to supply 5 teams and 6 teams at the same time, the most suitable place to build a small water tower is the middle position, so that it is convenient to both sides." ”

Captain Yang and Captain Zhang leaned over together, staring at the place where he drew a circle, and immediately thought of where it was.

Captain Yang nodded slightly, "You chose the small hill bag on the side of the road, there is only a little rape planted on the dirt bag, and the small water tower is built there, which has little impact." ”

Chen Fan said, "The main reason for building the small water tower in that place, except that it is the middle point of the two teams, is that there is this hill.

The height of the water tower determines the height of the house, the houses of the 5th and 6th teams are built on the soil slope, the height is not low, if the small water tower is built on flat ground, there is no height difference, the water cannot go up at all, so the water tower must be at least one layer higher than the house, this layer is the location of the water tank. ”

Ye Shubao wiped his chin thoughtfully and asked, "Then if there is a mountain nearby, isn't it okay to just pump water down without building a water tower?" ”

Chen Fan nodded, "That's right." ”

Then he shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "It's a pity that the entire Nanhu Commune is a depression, and you can only use tap water by building a water tower and pumping water to a high place." ”

As for the future waterworks, they are supported by advanced technology and equipment, which is fundamentally different from the current primitive small water tower.

After a pause, he turned his head to look at the security and said, "Although I know a little bit about the structural design of the water tower, but after all, I have no experience, and the water pipes and other related materials have to be purchased outside. ”

The internal structure of the small water tower has iron ladders, overflow pipes, upper and lower water pipes, lightning rod wires, etc., and the main building also has fixed cards, windows, door openings, drain holes and other key parts that need to be reserved.

These devices are all designed to maintain the safe operation of the water tower, and Chen Fan can handle the design himself, but in order to succeed in one fell swoop, it is best to ask professionals to come and give advice.

Hearing his words, Security nodded without hesitation, "Yes, this is easy, I'll just call the county construction team when I go back." ”

If you want to invite the water tower construction team to come over for construction, you may have to schedule it, but if you only ask two people to come and guide the construction, it will hardly waste any effort.

Under the policy of "agricultural science village", it is impossible for the county construction team to refuse, otherwise they will not be able to bear the consequences.

At this time, Secretary Yang also said, "Although this is our project in Lujiawan, according to the regulations, the commune has the obligation to help the construction of the production team. ”

Captain Zhang immediately said, "It's best to approve the water pipes directly." ”

Secretary Yang nodded, "I definitely know this, anyway, if there is anything you want, let's not choose." ”
