Chapter 119 Can’t sit still
Go home, pull the rope, and turn on the light.
The room was bright.
Yang Xiaotao looked around, finally feeling a bit like modern civilization.
It’s just that in this era there were no TVs, no refrigerators, and no computers.
The exchange column provided by the system only contains daily necessities, not any of these electrical appliances.
In other words, even Yang Xiaotao would not dare to redeem it.
With the urine of the beasts in the courtyard, as long as he dares to redeem it, he will definitely report him for speculation in the next second, which is related to capitalism.
When the time comes, I won’t know for sure, but I might even eat peanuts.
No, it must be!
Therefore, it can only be used for lighting.
Xiao Wei happily turned around the light bulb, feeling like a moth flying into the flame.
Yang Xiaotao didn't care about her either.
When I walked to the desk, there was no typhoon, but fortunately the light above my head was bright enough.
Open "Mechanical Principles and Structure" and continue reading and studying.
In the entire courtyard, the front yard and the back yard were dark. Only the ear room in the middle yard was radiating light, which made people who got up at night feel uncomfortable when they saw it.
Silly Zhu put his hands in his sleeves and came back from the toilet. There was still dirt on his shoes. He accidentally stepped on a brick just now and almost sprained his foot.
At this time, I looked at Yang Xiaotao's house and wondered whether I should also get a light bulb.
Everyone has their own plans in mind.
……
Time flies and New Year's Day of 1959 has passed.
Yang Xiaotao got out of the bed, pinched his cold nose, checked that it was still early, and leaned into the bed again.
I closed the electric blanket and stayed there for a while before getting up.
I have to say that with the electric blanket, I can finally live a warm life, even if I am alone...it's okay.
I put on my thermal underwear, put on a thick sweater and woolen pants, and put an old cotton-padded jacket over it. In this way, I finally kept out the cold.
He stood up and put on his cotton shoes. These were also redeemed leather shoes. After smoothing the labels, he was not afraid of others seeing them.
Take the extinguished stove to the yard, pour out the ashes, light the briquettes again, then heat up the leftover meatballs and cabbage from last night, soak them in steamed buns and eat them all.
Take out the kettle, fill it with hot water, put on leather gloves, carry your bag and go out to work.
This winter is very cold, at least colder than last year.
It just entered the twelfth lunar month, and there was a snowfall in Sijiucheng. It fell to the ground in a fluttering way, and it was all up to the ankles, making a crunching sound when stepped on.
Walking out of the courtyard, the snow at the door was piled in the corner and has not melted.
In the alleyway, there are fewer children who usually play nonsense. The scene of snowball fights in my memory does not appear. They all stay at home.
Outside the entrance of the alley, a group of people, organized by the street, were sweeping with sweeping poles, pushing aside the broken snow, but the road was still muddy.
In the era before cement and asphalt roads, a heavy snowfall would make travelers exhausted.
“It would be nice to have a car.”
Yang Xiaotao picked up the clean place and walked around, jumping up and down, going around in circles, missing the electric car in his previous life more and more.
Of course, it is impossible to buy a car in this day and age.
Bicycles are okay, but this bike is not easy to buy.
Not only money but tickets are required.
It is much harder to buy than the luxury car he longed for in his previous life.
The difference is that he didn't even have a chance to buy it before traveling through time. But now, with the help of the system, there are still great opportunities to buy luxury cars of this era.
Follow the crowd to the steel rolling mill, enter the third workshop and prepare to start work.
Everyone around them said hello together, and many people's faces were blue from the cold. Fortunately, they were warm in the workshop. Everyone moved their hands and feet and got ready to work.
“Xiao Tao, you’re here so early!”
Wang Fa ran into the workshop wearing a military coat and then began to take off his clothes.
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Team leader, we almost didn't finish yesterday's work. Come here early today."
After entering the twelfth lunar month, the factory assigned more and more tasks, and their third workshop took on more tasks than before. doubled.
The machines are still the same, and the manpower has not been increased, so the tasks can only be divided evenly. And because their team performed well, they were allocated more.
Of course, because of this, they received a lot more rewards.
Just like when wages were paid at the end of December, each person in their group not only received an extra pound of meat, but also received five more pounds of national food stamps.
This also made people in the workshops happy. Many workshops also introduced incentives, and the enthusiasm for work was even higher.
"You are better at making level five workpieces than me now. I really don't know how you developed your benchwork skills."
Wang Fa rolled up his sleeves and sighed.
The main task undertaken by their group now is the grinding and manufacturing of level four and level five workpieces.
Among them, he is responsible for the fifth-level workpieces. Although Yang Xiaotao is a third-level fitter, he is responsible for the production of fourth-level workpieces.
Sometimes he also helps with some simple fifth-level workpieces. His ability is outstanding and he is the only one in the entire third workshop.
Everything else was done by Che Wenwei and others.
“That’s just practice more and study more!”
Yang Xiaotao said with a smile. Wang Fa didn’t refute, mainly because he didn’t know whether he should refute or not.
“I, now I am looking forward to taking the grading assessment to see if you can directly pass the Level 5 fitter exam.”
"That won't work. We have to do it step by step."
"You, no one in the whole workshop knows what you are capable of, so just pretend here."
"Hahaha"< br>
Che Wenwei and others also came over, "Team leader, don't worry, our team will have to improve a lot after the next assessment."
"Yes, I'm waiting for the assessment too. ”
Li Nan came over. During this period of time, he was following Yang Xiaotao and he was learning so fast that he almost caught up with Zhou Peng. However, a few of them were full of confidence in the third-level fitter assessment.
"I also want to enter Level 4!" Li Wei said expectantly from the side, while Che Wenwei next to him said angrily, "You want to? I still want to!"
"My years of experience as a fitter are about to be surpassed. Where should I put this face."
"Where to put it? Of course, put it in the crotch. It can't leak out and still keep warm."< br>
"Shout, little plum, you can do it now."
"Viagra, Viagra, I was wrong, please forgive me."
Yang Xiaotao watched the harmonious scene, and also joined in to watch the excitement. , and finally Li Nan was squeezed out of a pack of cigarettes, and that was the end.
Several people get into working mode.
In the first workshop, Yi Zhonghai concentrated on cutting the workpieces. At this point, he relied more on experience and the feeling of his hands when working.
So when he was working, no one around him dared to get close, for fear of disturbing him.
It wasn't until an hour passed and the workpiece was processed that Yi Zhonghai straightened up and moved his sore arms.
At this time, Jia Dongxu, who was working on the side, came over and handed over the water glass.
"Master, please sit down and have a rest."
Yi Zhonghai took a sip from the water glass, and then heard Jia Dongxu ask, "Master, I heard that the second aunt got up at night and The door fell?”
Yi Zhonghai nodded. He heard Lao Liu talk about this when he left in the morning.
Fortunately, the fall was not serious, and I could just lie down at home for two days.
"Master, it's cold today and it's dark under your feet. I think we should get an electric light."
Jia Dongxu said carefully from the side, but Yi Zhonghai looked up at him. .
With just one glance, the things brewing in Jia Dongxu's stomach were bottled up in his heart, unable to be expressed.
Yi Zhonghai was silent and thinking about this in his heart.
If no one opened this before, that would be it, but now.
The bright lights in Yang Xiaotao's home made people in the courtyard jealous.
“I’ll go back and ask about this.”
Yi Zhonghai thought it would be better to discuss it with Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui.
Jia Dongxu nodded dullly. In fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to install electric lights at home, but he just didn't want to spend money.
"Okay, then do you want to hold a hospital-wide meeting?"
"No, it's freezing, so there's no need!"
Yi Zhonghai rejected Jia Dongxu's proposal , If we really want to hold a conference, wouldn’t it be an expansion?
This goes against his recent principles.
Jia Dongxu said "Oh" and returned to his work station. The people in the same team looked at him with disdain. A first-level fitter who didn't work hard and fawned over this and that all day long really thought he was a nobody.
The team leader is also helpless. In this workshop, besides Director Sun, Yi Zhonghai is the loudest one, and he doesn't dare to offend him.
After get off work, Yang Xiaotao worked overtime and it was already dark when he returned to the courtyard.
I kicked my feet in the mud and walked into the house.
Turn on the light and it was warm in the room. Yang Xiaotao knew that Uncle Chen helped to bake the stove.
I took off my clothes and shoes and started to clean them with a rag. The mud on my feet would be caked in the morning if I didn't wipe it clean.
In the Jia family, Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu were talking.
"Why is that guy Yi Zhonghai so depressed?"
Jia Zhang heard that Yi Zhonghai did not come forward to hold meetings, and recently he did not get involved in the "war" between the Jia family and Yang Xiaotao. He no longer looked towards the Jia family on weekdays, and felt uncomfortable. At this time, he was criticizing Yi Zhonghai.
“Who knows, but he said that he and Liu Haizhong would discuss it, but he just doesn’t know what will happen in the end!”
Jia Dongxu picked up the kerosene lamp. The stick on the side stared at the little eyes and followed the flames.
"If you ask me, just pull out a wire. Anyway, there are ready-made stakes. Why split one!"
Jia Dongxu said angrily, and Jia Zhang on the side also nodded.
“Everyone will be like this when the time comes. Let’s see what he does.”
Jia Zhang also wants to use the power of the whole hospital to force Yang Xiaotao, imagining that her own home will be equipped with light bulbs, and her grandson will learn to change the light bulbs in the future. good.
"Let's wait and see."
In the backyard, at Liu Haizhong's house, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui discussed things together after visiting their second aunt.
“First uncle, second uncle, I think this light is very necessary, especially at the gate. Having a light is not only convenient for people coming back at night, but it can also show the spiritual civilization of our yard, and it can also be used in the street office. You have a long face.”
Yan Fugui was the first to express his opinion, but no one believed what he said.
Yi Zhonghai did not expose it. He was afraid that if something like this happened at Liu Haizhong's house, he would suffer the consequences, so he agreed to pull the wire.
"You can pull it, but how to pull it is the problem."
Yi Zhonghai said, and the others were silent again.
Yang Xiaotao was the first to get electricity, and the wires and stakes he bought were all paid for by himself. It was impossible for them to have sex for free.
Yan Fugui has already tried it before.
“I asked the power supply bureau that there is only one line in this alley.”
"That is to say, if we want to electrify, we must separate it from that one."
Yi Zhonghai spoke, and several people looked ugly.
When Yang Xiaotao pulled the wire, they laughed at him, but now they are so short-sighted that they only feel pain when they slap him in the face.
"In other words, everyone has to look at this guy's face!"
Liu Haizhong was very angry.
It would really harm the second uncle's face to ask him to go to Yang Xiaotao in a low voice.
Yi Zhonghai also didn't want to get involved, but he, as a big man, had to come forward in this matter.
Yan Fugui rolled his eyes, and then said, "How about we go directly to the street office."
"Let the street office come forward. Whoever wants to pull the wires will share the share, and no one will suffer. . ”
Yan Fugui understood that Yang Xiaotao couldn’t take advantage, so he had to find another way and share it equally with everyone, so he could get less.
Besides, the light at the front door is right outside his house, doesn’t it mean it’s the same as his own house?
