When the smoke was billowing in the brick kiln, Chen Fan took off his straw hat, held it in his hand as a fan to fan the wind, and walked along the passage where the members and the masses spontaneously separated, and walked towards the main road.

Seeing Chen Fan leaving, everyone couldn't help but applaud and cheer.

Well, it's a bit of a farewell.

Why does it feel a bit like a lot of people?

At this time, Secretary Yang, Captain Zhang and several of them came over.

Secretary Yang saw Chen Fan, looked at the two brick kilns with thick smoke, and said loudly, "How is it?" ”

Chen Fan grinned and said, "Anyway, the preparations are in place, and this time I also used briquettes, which is stronger than the charcoal burning bricks I used before." ”

The briquette is the residue pulled from the coal factory, and the briquette is better than charcoal when you add some soil and stir it, and the temperature of the firing is more suitable for burning bricks.

When Secretary Yang heard this, the corners of his mouth suddenly opened to both sides, "So, it's done?" ”

Chen Fan shook his head, "Before the kiln was opened, no one could say good. ”

He walked to Secretary Yang's side, took the cigarette handed by the security, took out a lighter and lit it, turned to look at the brick kiln and said, "A little fire, the rest is to resign yourself to fate." If you're lucky, it's good to be able to produce 9 good bricks, and if you're unlucky, it's good to be able to keep half of them. ”

Xiao Liewen looked at him speechlessly, "You can't say something with a long ambition." ”

Chen Fan said with a smile, "No matter how long your ambition is, it's useless, think about it, even if it is a brick factory in the commune, sometimes the yield rate is only about 8 percent, our adobe kiln, how high a proportion of good bricks can you expect?!" ”

Ye Shubao waved his hand, "It's okay, it's all wasteland soil anyway, it's worthless, and if it's wasted, it's wasted." It's a big deal to pull out the waste bricks to build the road, the road is full of potholes, and I'm afraid there is no place to fill it! ”

Secretary Yang and Captain Zhang nodded slightly, "That's the truth." ”

Anyway, if you don't need money, it's a big deal to burn a few more kilns.

Secretary Yang gestured, "Let's go, let's go back." ”

Then he turned and walked towards the path in the field.

Chen Fan originally planned to go home, but at this time, he could only follow them to the team headquarters.

He waved his hand first and asked Jiang Lili and the others to go back, and then hurriedly followed behind the safety.

The kiln is located at the entrance of Lujiawan Village, and it is convenient to get to Team 5 from here, especially by walking the path in the field, which is a ten-minute walk.

I looked at the yellowed ears of rice in the field, the breeze blew, and the rice ears rose one after another, flooding layers of rice waves.

Chen Fan threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it, and asked, "How did you get together?" ”

I didn't see them when I built the brick kiln just now, and they didn't appear until the fire was lit, and they still came together, could it be that something happened?

Security nodded, pointed to the rice field next to it, and said, "We all went to the commune for a meeting just now. The commune summoned the leaders of several production teams and held a meeting on the double robbery, demanding that the work of double robbery must be done well, and that there must be no mistakes. ”

Ye Shubao continued his words and said, "It's all cliché, in fact, they don't need to have a meeting, which of us dares to be sloppy at this time?" Don't say anything about official hats and money bags, at least take the food in the bowl seriously, otherwise when the time comes, you will be hungry, and it will be yourself and the people of our own brigade who will suffer. ”

At this time, Secretary Yang laughed and said, "But this trip is not in vain, the public society supports a batch of agricultural machinery and fertilizers, which can be of a lot of use." ”

Chen Fan noticed that Secretary Yang was talking about agricultural machinery rather than agricultural machinery, that is, things such as sickles, threshing machines, windmills, etc., which have nothing to do with machinery, but are very useful for double robbery.

Double robbery is simple to say, that is, to grab the early rice and plant the late rice, but the various efforts in it are not small.

In other words, double grabbing is just a big item, and it also contains many small items: grabbing harvest, grabbing ploughing, grabbing seeds, grabbing grain, grabbing grass, grabbing water, grabbing threshing, grabbing the sun, grabbing the sun, grabbing the sun, grabbing the agricultural time......

So much farm work had to be done in just 20 days. (There are differences in double grabbing in various places, more may take 40 days, less than half a month, depending on what kind of crops are planted, and how many "advanced" agricultural machinery there are)

Just such a period of time, but it is the most bitter time of the year, which is enough to make the whole village of men, women and children shed their skin.

Any little support from the commune would be a great thing for the production team.

Chen Fan followed them back to the team headquarters and listened to them arrange their work.

Who is responsible for the preparations, starting with the overhaul of agricultural machinery, the sickle must be sharpened, the flat shoulder must be reinforced, the basket must be repaired, and the threshing floor must be leveled、......

He listened and recorded at the same time, and gradually had a specific concept of double robbery in his heart.

But when the double robbery officially began, he realized that he still didn't know enough about the double robbery.

……

After a few days, most of the rice in the paddy fields turned golden yellow, with only sporadic green dots, and the double rush of Nanhu Commune, or the entire Yunhu area, officially began.

This morning, Chen Fan was still sleeping, and he faintly heard movement outside.

He immediately opened his eyes and got up, put on a sweatshirt and walked out.

Even though it was already a hot summer, the countryside was still a little cool in the early morning, and as soon as he opened the door, he felt a cool breeze coming towards him.

Looking outside, there were stars in the sky, but the girls' dormitory was already lit up, and there was a fire in the kitchen.

Chen Fan immediately walked over, and Jiang Lili just walked out of the room.

She didn't seem to have woken up yet, her body was a little shaky, and she didn't even wear shoes, she was barefoot, and her trouser legs rolled up to her knees.

Huang Ying and Liu Dan followed out, exactly the same as Jiang Lili's dress, with their trouser legs rolled up and their sleeves rolled up.

The three of them are here, and Yang Ju must be busy in the kitchen.

Why don't they have short-sleeved shorts? It's not that there are no short-sleeved shorts in this era, but short-sleeved shorts can only be worn in summer, and if there are not enough clothes, it is definitely not cost-effective.

To make long-sleeved trousers, you can roll them up in the summer and put them down when it's cold, and you can wear them from spring to summer and then to autumn, so many people in the countryside didn't have short-sleeved shorts at that time.

Seeing Chen Fan, the three of them were stunned for a moment.

Huang Ying took a step forward and said in surprise, "Teacher Chen, why are you up too?" ”

Chen Fan looked at them and asked puzzledly, "What time is it?" You guys get up so early? ”

Liu Dan couldn't help but yawn, "We set the alarm clock at 4 o'clock." ”

4 o'clock?

Chen Fan's eyes widened, and he was about to ask them why they got up so early.

At this time, Jiang Lili whispered, "Get up at 4 o'clock, and go to the field after breakfast, it's half past four, and the sky will be bright in a while, so you can work for a while before the sun comes out." ”

Huang Ying continued, "When the sun comes out and the sky is very dry, it will be even more uncomfortable at that time, so it is better to get up early and go to work." ”

Liu Dan said weakly, "Teacher Chen, no one can ask for leave during the double robbery, so we can't cook for you these days." ”

Chen Fan hurriedly waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll cook for you during this time." ”

Then he frowned slightly, "But it's only 4 o'clock, so it's too early." ”

Huang Ying smiled and said, "It's not early, it's called early when it's time to plant seedlings, and at that time, you have to get up at half past two to pull seedlings, which is nothing." ”

Chen Fan was speechless for a moment, and it was only at this time that he had the most intuitive feeling of the double robbery.

After a pause of two seconds, he walked to the kitchen, "You don't have to take care of the house these days, I will arrange the logistics." ”
