Chapter 227 I’ll learn it one day
In fact, before he left, he was already very reluctant to leave. He was reluctant to leave every minute and every second. The reluctance in his heart was particularly strong at this time. This was the first time in his life that he experienced this feeling. It turned out that it was really The truth is that everyone will encounter weaknesses, it’s just a matter of time!
Xia Chan didn't have so many emotions. She put Xiao Yunfan on the bus, turned around and hurried to the post office, where she sent the package for Su Yu and then the things for Xiao Tiantian's family. Otherwise, every time Even a girl named Xiao Tiantian couldn't carry a hundred kilograms of stuff, and Xiao Tiantian also told her her home address. Since she was here, she just sent it directly. No one knew whether she went out or not. Bring something.
After sending the things, Xia Chan drove the tractor straight to the county seat, found a place to put the tractor into the space, and then went to the black market to find Uncle Zhong to sell the supplies.
One hundred flat-bottomed iron pots, two thousand catties each of cucumbers, tomatoes, and eggplants, and ten thousand catties of other mountain products, wild vegetables, nuts, etc.
There are also a hundred pairs of thick children's cotton shoes. She saw these cotton shoes accidentally. They only cost twenty or thirty yuan a pair. In this era, some wealthy people buy shoes for their children, and some of them cost tens of yuan a pair. , so her shoes can definitely be sold, and those who are in good condition and love their children will be willing to buy them.
This time Xia Chan asked for 10,000 yuan in cash, and the rest was all gold and jewelry. She didn't ask for tickets, because her family had enough tickets left to prepare new year's goods.
After the transaction, Xia Chan drove the tractor back to the town. After the villagers bought their goods and got on the tractor, he drove the tractor and took everyone back to the production team.
It happened that the tractor oil was still hot, and it would be very difficult to start it if it cooled down, so Xia Chan called Aunt Lin's second daughter-in-law, who had to call her second sister-in-law, and then began to teach her how to drive the tractor.
The second sister-in-law rubbed her hands nervously and said worriedly, "Xiaochan, do you think I can really drive the tractor well?"
"Second sister-in-law, as long as you study hard, you will learn it one day." Because the tractor was running, the second sister-in-law did not need to drive the tractor. Xia Chan directly put her into the driver's seat and asked her to hold it with both hands. He told her the precautions for driving the tractor and brake problems, and then asked her to drive the tractor slowly. Xia Chan sat next to her and stared at her. If there was an emergency, she could extend her hand.
In fact, driving a tractor is really simple. You just need to put some effort into driving it at the beginning. The rest is just to deal with the problems that arise with the tractor.
The second sister-in-law carefully drove the tractor and drove forward slowly, spinning on the grain drying field. Seeing that she was driving well, Xia Chan asked her to drive towards the production team. After all, she would encounter any road conditions when going out in the future. Only when she has operated it herself can she deal with bad road conditions calmly.
The rural road between the production team's fields is made of a mixture of mud and sand. After years of use, it has become pitted. The tractor bumps terribly as soon as it goes up. Xia Chan doesn't care, she just sits there calmly. Let the second sister-in-law do the work next to her.
Only by slowly accumulating experience can she become an excellent tractor driver.
Seeing that the second sister-in-law was about to drive the tractor into the dry ditch, Xia Chan quickly reached out to control the handle of the tractor, turned the direction slightly, and turned the tractor in the right direction.
"Xiao Chan, you are really amazing." The second sister-in-law couldn't help but praise. She was really scared to death just now, but Xia Chan only stretched out her hand. "Second sister-in-law, you can do it if you wait for a while." Xia Chan smiled.
When they arrived at a spacious place, Xia Chan asked her second sister-in-law to drive the tractor back. It was enough to drive it for such a long time today. Driving a tractor does not mean driving it all day long, which is meaningless, but to accumulate experience through repeated travel tasks. of.
The second sister-in-law got off the tractor. She relaxed suddenly and felt that her legs were about to tremble. Driving a tractor was not an easy task!
Aunt Lin asked with concern, "How are you studying?"
"Actually, driving is very easy. You just need to know the direction well and avoid places with bad road conditions. The most important thing is the initial driving and subsequent maintenance and repairs. But I will leave these to my second sister-in-law. , Aunt Lin, don’t worry.”
Xia Chan didn't buy anything this time, but brought back some vegetables. After all, she went to the black market, and it couldn't be justified not to bring something back. She carried the basket and went home.
With no outsiders in the house, Xia Chan and the others' lives returned to normal. The brothers went hunting when they had time, and then took turns selling them in the town. The pheasants and hares they bought at the market were processed and sold together.
The people from the winter hunting team will be back soon. If the meat is divided then, their family will not be short of meat to eat, so they can sell these things to people who are short of meat. When people eat meat, they make money.
It will soon be the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, and everyone is starting to prepare New Year's goods.
That night, the family sat together in class. Thinking that the small stream and the river behind were dry this year, and there was no place to catch fish, Xia Chan couldn't help but frowned, "Brother, how about we go out and look for it?" Look where there is water and see if you can catch some fish.”
"The river has dried up, so there should be no water anywhere, right?" Xia Bin frowned, thought carefully, and said.
Although there were several light rains after the autumn harvest, the effect was not great. At most, it wetted the river bed, but there was no accumulation of water.
"Do you know where the water plant gets its water from? When it was working like this before, the residents in the city never stopped using water, so there must be water in the place where the water is taken. Where there is water, there are fish. We can go there to catch them. Order fish." Xia Chan remembered that in the 21st century, many people fished near the reservoir, and all kinds of bait were used, so a little bait would definitely not affect the quality of the water.
If the water purification technology at this time is not as good as in the future, then she does not use bait and directly uses gray flour, which is wheat flour. Those fishing guys like to use this to fish, so it is definitely possible to catch fish.
Xia Bin nodded, "Okay, then when we go to the town to sell things, we will ask around to see if the water plant is in the town or in the county. The water intake point is definitely not too far from the water plant. You can find it if you look for it. .”
Two days later, the brothers came back and found out that the water plant was in the county town, and it was in a very prosperous area of the county town. Xia Chan originally thought that the water plant would be built near the water source for the convenience of water collection, but she didn't expect that it was built near the water source. Busy place.
