Rebirth in the leisurely life of the red age

Song Qing suddenly asked with concern: "Xiao Li, are you okay at home now?"

This year we were hit by a drought, and the yield per mu was less than 200 kilograms, which left some life-saving food for the brigade. After the autumn harvest, we led the whole village, old and young, to dig and dry wild vegetables, fish, pickle fish, and hunt wild animals... Relatively speaking, the situation was much better. Other places... don't mention it, it's too bad. "

Song Qing praised: "Your father is a good branch secretary."

Li Xuemei asked with concern: "Everyone in your village is very grateful to him, right?"

Li Yuan chuckled and said, "Thank you? When he was dragged to the commune to be criticized, many people in the village jumped up and down, trying to knock him down. Fortunately, the old people in the village scolded him for being honest. Recently, those people looked at other production Brigade, look at the situation in Qinjiazhuang. Knowing the advantages and disadvantages, they all went to my house to pay for my father. My father didn't say anything, just organized people to do some heavy work when the well was dug and suppressed."

"Dig a pressure well?"

Song Qing suddenly grasped the key point and asked.

Li Yuan nodded and said: "My dad thinks that this year's drought for half a year may not be better next year. If there is another drought, it will be a big trouble. So he organized the production team members to use the free time after the autumn harvest to repair water conservancy projects. . They have no hope of drilling wells, and the country is not rich enough to send diesel engines and water pumps to the production team.

Just pressurize the water well and dig it seven or eight meters down. After opening the water veins, you can draw water manually. The effect is definitely not comparable to that of a motorized well, but it is better because it consumes no fuel or electricity, and can even be used by children at home. Watering bucket by bucket, as long as the manpower is constant, the water will continue. Although the water is small, it is better than no water at all. "He probably explained the principles and needs of pressure wells.

Song Qing and Wang Yamei looked at each other and felt incredible!

Song Qing said loudly: "This is a great thing."

Although Li Xuemei didn't know why, she also sighed: "Yuanzi, your family is full of capable people."

She didn't know that Li Yuan came up with this idea for her family...

This was a great era, when the country was built from poverty and ruins.

But it was also an era with very rigid ideas.

The technology of pressurizing water wells actually existed as early as the Song Dynasty, when they were still made of wood.

But in Shenghai at the beginning of this century, iron pressure wells were already in use.

However, it was not until the late 1970s and early 1980s that it began to circulate on a large scale in the vast rural areas, including the rural areas of Tianshan Province in western Xinjiang, where almost every household has a pressurized well.

How much more advanced could the level of science and technology in the 1970s be compared to now?

Li Yuan couldn't draw a prize that could change the course of history, but he could still use some memory and common sense to do some practical things...

Song Ting took Li Yuan's hand and said, "Xiao Li, if your father's pressurized well is successful, please let me know. Because it can save the lives of too many people!"

Pressure wells do not have high material requirements, and the shit-like earthen steel refined this year might be able to be used.

If it really succeeds, that would be a great joy!

Li Yuan is confident that unlike a few decades ago, the development and utilization of groundwater is basically at zero.

Moreover, this year is the first year of severe drought. There was no shortage of water in previous years, and even if the groundwater level dropped, it did not drop much.

In July next year, there will be another major flood in the Beijing area, and groundwater resources will be sufficient for the next two years.

Therefore, this water pressure well is very likely to be built with great success.

Even if the situation of severe drought cannot be changed, as long as it can earn a few more mouthfuls of food for the people to survive, it will still be a great achievement!

Although Li Yuan has been just a common man his entire life, the blood ties among his compatriots are not just something to talk about casually.

He enjoys a good life here, and so many compatriots are starving to death outside, but that's not what's going on in his heart...

Having accomplished such great achievements, Li Yuan thought he was worthy of the people and the country. After all, he was just a common man.

Then, you can live your life with peace of mind.

This matter is a redemption for others and ourselves...

…

When Li Yuan returned to the courtyard, it was already half past seven in the evening.

Sure enough, there were no patients queuing up, and the courtyard was much quieter today.

Li Yuan went to the house of the third master first, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Yan Bugui drinking a few peanuts alone, he smiled and said: "Third master, so elegant. Or else you know how to live, drinking a little wine , eating crispy peanuts... Third Master, as expected, only you can help me."

Yan Bugui's heart was numb, he smiled wryly, and said, "Yuanzi, look at your third master, twenty-seven and five yuan a month..."

"Definitely..."

Before he could finish complaining, Li Yuan stopped him with a smile: "I believe you took 27.5 yuan when you first started working. After so many years, why are you still putting aside the 27.5 yuan? I really don't think so this time." Borrow more, just this amount!”

Seeing Li Yuan's slap, the third mother who came out of the back room blinked and said, "Five cents?"

Yan Bugui smiled and said: "What are you talking about? Yuanzi, I... Oh, okay, five yuan is five yuan, there is nothing more. Yuanzi, it is you, I will not borrow it for others! "After the five yuan is borrowed, I can start to ask for work, I am so happy!

Yan Jiecheng hurriedly said, "Dad, brother Yuanzi said fifty!"

He felt that five yuan was still too little, and he couldn't afford it, but fifty yuan would be more sure!

Li Yuan shook his hand and said, "No, it's five hundred."

Negative emotions from Yan Bugui, Wang Guizhi, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang +188+288+488+588...

Li Yuan said in his heart that you have just stirred up a hornet's nest, what a shame.

Yan Bugui shook his head so fast that he almost threw away his tortoiseshell glasses, and said repeatedly: "No, no, no, my family can hardly afford to eat, where can we get 500 yuan?"

Li Yuan didn't bother and just sighed: "That's too bad..."

The third aunt asked with concern: "Why do you suddenly need so much money?"

Li Yuan frowned and said: "The situation in the countryside is getting more and more difficult. There are not even many mixed noodles in the big pot of rice. There are too many people in my family, and I will soon have several more nephews and nieces. It doesn't matter if you are hungry. , but how can the child be hungry? Besides, adults cannot be hungry, otherwise there will be no milk and the child will not be able to feed him. I was thinking about borrowing some money to see if I could find a job in the factory and get it done. One by one. This is a matter of survival!"

Old Yan's family: "..."

Did this kid predict it?

Yan Bugui was also bitter, but he didn't say anything about the relationship, but asked: "Then why did you donate both the betrothal gift and the betrothal gift?"

Li Yuan sighed and lowered his voice: "Isn't it because Jia Zhang loves to blame others? My family is very poor, and Jia Zhang has a poisonous mouth! Others don't know the risks involved, but you don't know? So? So , my family definitely can’t save money, and we don’t want to save money.

That radio is so good. Isn’t it comfortable to listen to it while lying on the kang at home? Why did you show it to everyone?

Again, my family is proletarian, no one can label us!

But now that my reputation is good, I don’t have to worry about being bullied, and it’s really hard to spend money!

Third uncle, how about I borrow three hundred from the first uncle, two hundred from the second uncle, and you can borrow... one hundred and fifty!

I guess Li'er can almost get a regular job. He can bring my fifth brother and his family here. He has many children, so it's best if he can eat commercial food. The children will also be given tickets for milk replacer powder..."

Yan Bugui smiled bitterly and said: "Yuanzi, it's not that the third uncle doesn't help you, I really don't!"

After Li Yuan was silent for a while, he said: "Sure, the third uncle is an honest man. If you say no, then I won't. I will go look elsewhere. If it doesn't work, there is nothing we can do. Ezi and I will reduce the rations a little more, and go to Let me send you two more food."

Hearing the misery he said, the three aunts couldn't bear it and said: "Yuanzi, it's too difficult for you. Who can afford to drag dozens of people by yourself? If you can't do it, go to your old father-in-law's house and ask for help. . Even if you pull out all the hairs on your body, it’s still thicker than our legs, isn’t it?”

Li Yuan shook his head and said: "Third Aunt, there are some things you don't know, but Third Uncle and Jie Cheng must understand. Ezi and I got married because we were in love and were willing to become a couple. But her family's money I can't get a penny from it. This is a matter of principle and cannot be compromised."

The third aunt was stunned, but Yan Bugui nodded and praised: "Yuanzi is a sensible person. It is true that her family's money can be touched less, so it is best not to touch it."

Yan Jiecheng also pretended to be serious and nodded: "Brother Yuanzi is right."

Li Yuan smiled smartly and said: "It's okay. It really doesn't matter. I just have to do my best." After a pause, in the eyes of the Yan family who expressed admiration and sympathy from the middle-level officials but also gloated about their misfortune, he added: "It really can't be done. I If we bring Ezi to the third uncle’s house for a couple of meals, the third uncle can’t send us away, can he?”

Yan Bugui: "..."

It’s broken, I’m thinking about it again!
