Feng Qingxue also wore a hat with a wide brim, a gray long-sleeved shirt and black pants.

A bamboo hat made of oil paper sandwiched between bamboo strips provides protection from the sun and rain.

Wang Dachun shouted and everything started.

Cut the sweet potato vines first, transport them away, dry them on the ground, and then dig the sweet potatoes.

Immediately after digging the sweet potatoes, Wang Dachun arranged for strong laborers to drive cattle to plow the land, followed by women to sow wheat seeds.

There is a lot of work, but everything is orderly and full of enthusiasm.

Feng Qingxue held the name book of the production team in her hand. She called the names first, but instead of recording work points for everyone early in the morning, based on the day's inspection, only those who did the most farm work and did the best that day were recorded ten work points. Regardless of gender, brothers and sisters-in-law such as Miao Fengqin and Wang Dachun all work hard. Those who like to be lazy and work less, such as Wang Jiao, only have six work points.

In this regard, Wang Zhengguo managed extremely strictly.

Therefore, he himself needs to inspect the situation of all production teams, and only goes to work in the fields between inspections to prevent team leaders and accountants from seeking favoritism and recording high work points for relatives and friends and low work points for illiterate people.

Most of the people are illiterate, and because the production captain is in charge of everything, they can only swallow their anger.

Wang Zhengguo's approach was supported by many people.

Bending down to cut sweet potato vines is not a light job. After bending down for a long time, it is not a sore back. I have to straighten up and continue working. If I don’t take advantage of the good weather to take the crops back, do I have to wait until the weather is bad? Going to the ground again?

Digging sweet potatoes is also a technical job. With good skills, the sweet potatoes can be dug out completely from the soil without damaging them at all. Some people have no grasp of the matter and dig out the sweet potatoes with a rake, and the skin and flesh are also injured.

Once a sweet potato is injured, it will inevitably be stained with soil, which will naturally make it look unclean.

The dug sweet potatoes are transported to the fields in bamboo baskets and dung baskets. Because spring sweet potatoes are sliced ​​for food rations, all the sweet potatoes, regardless of size, are cut into pieces with a sweet potato plane and evenly sprinkled on the ground where the sweet potatoes have been removed and wheat is planted. On the ground, drying in the wind.

The current soil is neither dry nor wet, which is conducive to digging sweet potatoes and growing wheat, although the soil moisture is slightly lower than the standard for growing wheat.

The entire production brigade has a total of more than 6,000 acres of land, and each production team has about 500 acres. The live load is tight and there can be no delay. Who knows whether the weather will be violently stormy or clear? If it rains heavily, it will not be possible to dig sweet potatoes and plant wheat for a long time. If it does not rain, it will not be conducive to digging sweet potatoes, let alone planting wheat.

Therefore, even if the humidity is not enough, wheat should be planted quickly.

The land where wheat has been planted is a natural place for drying sweet potato slices. Some of the sweet potato slices are dried on the spot. If there is not enough space, they are transported to the ground and spread out.

The dark brown soil and the white sweet potato slices form a clear contrast.

The sweet potato plane used to peel sweet potato slices is a rectangular wooden board about 80 to 90 centimeters long, 20 to 30 centimeters wide, and 3 to 4 centimeters thick. There is a hole in the middle of the board, and a piece of iron is fixed under the hole. It is very sharp. Iron sheets.

Most women and older men do the work of peeling sweet potato chips.

They sat in front of piles of sweet potatoes. The sweet potato peeler was placed between the legs in front of them. It was slope-shaped, with upper and lower sides. They held a sweet potato in their hands and rubbed it on the sweet potato peeler. They then cut it into pieces from the iron sheet and cut it directly from the middle of the board. The mouth fell down.
