Chen Fan sat on the steps and smoked a cigarette, listening to Captain Yang talk about the changes in the production team, with a smile on his face.

At the beginning of the year, Secretary Yang proposed to set up a farm, and Chen Fan also provided detailed ideas.

But at that time, it was just a blueprint after all.

In the words of ordinary people, what cannot be seen or touched is not real.

But based on the trust in the production team and Chen Fan, everyone did as required.

Learning to raise earthworms, cultivating livestock and grass, and weaving bamboo cages at home to build chicken coops and rabbit houses,......, to this day, I finally see hope.

Batches of seedlings pulled back, distributed to each household, veterinarians tirelessly check the health of breeding, feed preventive drugs to the seedlings pulled back, and point out all kinds of breeding precautions.

Everything is going in a good direction, and it's no wonder that Captain Yang and the others are smiling from ear to ear.

After chatting about the changes in the production team these days, Captain Yang pointed to the construction site of the panda park and said, "The foundation will be laid today, and the construction of your yard is not complicated, it is estimated that it will be completed in two days. ”

Chen Fan immediately shook his head, "The thatch is not suitable, I will burn some tiles in a few days, and then I will trouble you to help spread it." ”

Captain Yang didn't answer the "troublesome" words, and directly pointed at him and smiled, "You said that you live on a thatched roof and a brick house for pandas, what do you think?" ”

What do you think? Of course, it's fun!

Chen Fan will focus on one principle now, just be happy!

Before the crossing, he liked this thatched roof of the countryside, so he wanted to use the thatched roof when building the house.

When you don't want to use it one day, you can replace it with tiles.

Toss and toss, but it's fun.

Of course, this must not be said, otherwise Captain Yang and the others should preach.

He grinned and didn't speak, like a big fool.

At this time, he walked up the long slope safely, and just saw Chen Fan smirking, and couldn't help but say, "You smile a bit like the second fool at the old street, have you encountered something good?" ”

Chen Fan stood up and waved his hand, "Brother An, come here, something?" ”

An'an walked over quickly, took the cigarette handed by Captain Yang, took out a lighter and lit it, and sat down next to Zhang Wenliang and said, "Something, looking for you." ”

"You said."

Chen Fan threw away the cigarette butt, waved his hand to refuse the cigarette handed by Captain Yang, and turned to face safety.

He took a puff of cigarette safely, then looked at him and said softly, "I was in the brigade just now, and I discussed with Secretary Yang and them, there are a lot of bricks needed to build a small water tower, and if you spend money to buy it, it is estimated that you will have a lot of money. ”

Chen Fan heard the song and knew the meaning of elegance, nodded suddenly, and said with a smile, "Want to burn it yourself?" ”

It is impossible to use adobe bricks to build a water tower, and if you don't want to spend money to buy it, you can only burn it yourself.

An'an nodded, and Zhengse said, "You also know that only you can burn bricks in the entire Lujiawan, but don't worry, Secretary Yang didn't say that they want you to pass on this skill, no matter which production team it is, there are many skilled people, so they didn't say that they forced people to pass on their skills."

What is the main thing, I want to ask you to be a technical consultant, the specific work, you go to command others to do it, ah, including me, all of us listen to your command, you say what to do, we just care about the last brick, what do you think? ”

Chen Fan said without thinking, "I can't talk about the command, it's all for the production team, in order to be able to use tap water as soon as possible, I took this job." ”

A smile suddenly bloomed on the security face, and he slapped him on the shoulder, laughing, "I know that you kid is fine." ”

Chen Fan smiled and said, "However, when I go back to burn bricks, I want to burn some bricks and tiles for myself by the way, and give me some cement, this is no problem, right?" ”

It is somewhat difficult for individuals to buy cement, but it is relatively simple for the production team to buy it, under the banner of collective engineering, as long as the quantity is reasonable, the commune will generally give approval quickly, and then he can pull a few bags back for his own use.

Safety naturally agreed, "It's not a problem, you can burn as much as you say, and if you can't use it, you will pull it back for you." Cement is easy to say, don't say uneven, if you don't want a lot of quantity, just pull it directly, and it will be regarded as a 'technical fee'. ”

Chen Fan said with a smile, "It's not very practical, it's just that the bricks that were prepared to build the kitchen before are going to be moved to build a panda house, so it's not a little missing, and it has to be made up." ”

At the same time, I thought to myself, it happened that even the tiles were burned together, and I didn't have to open another kiln.

The small earthen kiln he built in the ravine before, although it was expanded several times later, could not burn much at one time, and making bricks was also a hard job, even if Jiang Lili and the others were added, they couldn't do so much at once.

Now that the brigade headquarters is dispatched, it will be different, the strong labor of thousands of people in the whole brigade, plus women and half-grown babies, can make 100,000 bricks in a day, and it will not take long to burn enough bricks and tiles.

It's easy to save yourself trouble, and you can get bricks and tiles quickly, so why not do it.

Speaking of building a kitchen, Chen Fan suddenly stood up, walked to the position of the fermented soil, and uncovered the straw mat covered on it, revealing the swarthy fermented soil inside.

He squatted down and grabbed a handful in his hand, rubbed it lightly a few times, and immediately felt the fineness of the soil.

At this time, Captain Yang and the others also came over, "How is it, is the fermentation done?" ”

Chen Fan turned around and smiled, "It's already good." ”

Zhang Wenliang immediately said, "It's been almost a month, and it should be about the same." Since it's all right, why don't you call the construction team to come and smear it for you tomorrow, and by the way, build the cellar and kitchen too. ”

Chen Fan has no choice, build the house as soon as possible, even if he doesn't move over, it's comfortable to look at!

……

The next day, Chen Fan first went to Master Liu to borrow a donkey cart, pulled the sorted out primary school textbooks, and sent them to the 10 teams of village schools.

When I came back, I rode my horse to the brigade.

When I arrived at Team 5, I turned a corner again and went to Lu Siye's house first.

As usual, Lu Siye was busy in the vegetable patch in the backyard, and when he saw him coming, he walked over slowly, and then Chen Fan scooped up the water to wash his hands, and asked with a smile, "How do you feel when you go to the local committee?" ”

Chen Fan smiled, "It's okay, it's bigger than Lujiawan." ”

"Hmph."

Lu Siye couldn't help laughing, "That Yunhu Lake is also an important town on the Yangtze River, so it got your evaluation." ”

Chen Fan walked into the house with him, helped him sit down, picked up the teapot and made tea for him, "The Wangjiang Tower you said, I've been to eat it, the price is not cheap, but the taste is a little uneven." ”

Lu Siye held a small teapot and looked at him with a smile, "What do you say?" ”

Chen Fan sat down on the other side of the table and said seriously, "I ate it, it is the same big dish, but it is made by three people, one is the master, and the ingredients are matched with various seasonings just right, salty but not spicy, spicy but not pungent, fragrant but not greasy, strong and strong without damaging the taste of the ingredients themselves."

The other two are worse, the reason why they can make big dishes depends on the secret sauce that the master blended, if there is no secret sauce, then the craftsmanship is at most the level of Master Zhu in the state-owned restaurant in our town, and he can't enter Wangjiang Tower at all. ”

After a pause, he came back to his senses, "Oh, now it's called the Workers' and Peasants' Hotel." ”

"Workers' and peasants' hotel?"

Fourth Master Lu was stunned for a moment, and a trace of melancholy flashed in his eyes, "The signboard of Wangjiang Tower is gone." ”

Then he shook his head and smiled, "That's right, the times have changed, it should be called the Workers' and Peasants' Hotel, a hotel serving the workers and peasants." ”

When Chen Fan heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "Pull it down, the name is Workers and Peasants, but it's actually the same as before." There are really workers and peasants who go to eat, and they ignore them one by one, and when the people in cadre uniforms pass, they are more attentive than serving their own sons, and it is not a way. ”

Lu Siye was a little surprised, "Yo, there are really workers and peasants going to eat?" ”

Chen Fan immediately nodded, "Yes." ”

He pointed to himself, "I am a farmer, my friend is a worker, and we are both workers and peasants." ”

When Lu Siye heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud, "Hahahaha, I'll just say, if Wangjiang Tower is still at the same price as before, how can there be workers and peasants to eat." ”

Chen Fan picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of coarse tea, and said with a smile, "Hey, don't care if anyone goes in, anyway, the sign is out, and you can't blame people if you don't go." ”

Lu Siye's smile rested for a while, and after a few seconds, he regained a smile on his face, and turned his head to look at Chen Fan, "How did you eat it, their dishes all rely on that sauce?" ”

Chen Fan proudly crossed Erlang's legs and said with a smile, "I'm also a chef, his sauce is special, but he can't hide my tongue." ”

As he spoke, he smacked his lips and tasted it a few times, then turned around and whispered, "Honestly, I can not only eat that sauce, but also try to restore it." ”

Fourth Master Lu looked at him in surprise, "Really? ”

"Hey, hey."

Chen Fan smiled, "I know you don't believe it, but it doesn't matter, I'll wait until I restore the sauce and get you a pot of braised chicken, and you'll know when you eat it." ”

Lu Siye smiled, suddenly exhaled a long breath, and said with a melancholy face, "The old master you are talking about should be Boss Cai of the original Wangjiang Tower, those two masters who are a little worse should be his two sons, Boss Cai regards his ancestral sauce recipe as heavier than life, except for him, no one will mix this sauce."

Back then, relying on the sauce recipe and the cooking skills, he gained a firm foothold in Yunhu and opened Wangjiang Tower, but he didn't expect that after so many years, he still guarded the stove of Wangjiang Tower.

It's just that Wangjianglou's hospitality that treated everyone equally has disappeared. ”

The corners of Chen Fan's mouth twitched slightly, and he was a little speechless for a while.

Wangjianglou treats everyone equally? Workers and Peasants Hotel favors one over the other! It's so interesting.

After a pause of two seconds, he took out a small wooden box from his bag and put it in Lu Siye's hand, "I went to the prefectural committee and brought you a souvenir." ”

Lu Siye came back to his senses, picked up the small box and looked at it, then looked at him, and asked with a smile, "Brush?" ”

Chen Fan was a little surprised, "There is no mark on this box at all, how did you see it?" ”

Lu Siye took his hand and said with a smile, "This weight, and this size, even if it's not a brush, it's about the same." ”

As he spoke, he opened the box, picked up a brush inside, looked at it in front of him, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad, it's a high-quality lake pen." ”

He turned his head to look at Chen Fan and asked curiously, "Huzhou brushes are famous all over the world, even if they are Chinese who go abroad, they can't change the habit of using lake pens, especially some old literati, and they don't use lake pens." This is a high-end product that can earn foreign exchange, and it is difficult to buy it in ordinary stores, where did you buy it from? ”

Chen Fan was a little surprised, "Really?" ”

Then he said, "I didn't buy it, I gave it to someone else, it's the director of the health department." ”

Director Ren and Deputy Director Hao Liyang both gave gifts, can he still be left behind as a leader? gave Chen Fan this brush.

Before, Chen Fan was still thinking about why he was so picky, and he sent himself away with a brush, didn't he see that the director "sent" 5 filter magnolias.

But I didn't expect that a small brush would have such a background.

Lu Siye heard Chen Fan say that it was given by someone else, and he muttered for two seconds, and then said no more.

Then he looked at him and smiled, "I took this brush, but I also have a good thing for you." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and walked into the bedroom, took out a stone from the drawer, walked over and handed it to Chen Fan, "Your Jinshi Kung Fu has entered the door, and when you feel that you have learned something, use this stone to carve a seal for yourself." ”

When Chen Fan received it in his hand, he immediately felt a delicate and slippery feeling, and couldn't help but be shocked, and then looked carefully, this stone was golden all over, and a name flashed in his mind, "Tian Huangshi?" ”
