small farmer

Chapter 493
After the people from the agricultural machinery company leave

Zhang Feng also pushed the plow machine to the field to learn.

The plow machine that everyone purchased this time is a single-person walk-behind plow machine with two rubber wheels on the bottom, which can be walked into the field as long as you push it.

This kind of plow machine uses a small gasoline engine. There is a small fuel tank on the upper left side of it. Pour one liter of gasoline sent by the agricultural machinery company into it. It is said that it can be used for about an hour.

I have to say that Zhang Feng's learning speed is also super abnormal. Just now, he only watched the technician operate it once, and he firmly memorized the operation steps and skills of the plow machine.

Start the engine, release the accelerator slowly, the plow machine is slowly moving forward in the paddy field, the sharp coulter below is inserted deeply into the field, and the soil in the field is turned over, and the rake behind the plow machine will move these The soil is flattened and the plowing speed is super fast. The scalpers will probably be extremely desperate after seeing it.

After only one back and forth operation, Zhang Feng has thoroughly mastered the operation skills of the plow machine.
So Zhang Feng accelerated the speed, about [-] kilometers per hour, Zhang Feng held the handrails tightly with both hands, and stood on the plow with both feet, as if driving an ancient chariot in the paddy field, galloping vertically and horizontally.

"Wow! Brother, you learned it so quickly??" Seeing Zhang Feng's operation so smoothly, Zhang Yi, who was in the paddy field next door, exclaimed in surprise.

"Hey, there's nothing you can do if you're smart!!" Zhang Feng explained coquettishly.

"Hey, my brother, can you stop hitting people like this?" Zhang Yi shook his head helplessly, then smiled wryly.

"Hehe, don't be superstitious about brother, brother is a legend!!" Zhang Feng turned his head to look at the moon and said, his cousin was dumbfounded again.

Knowing that it was hopeless to catch up with his cousin, Zhang Yi finally appointed the operator of the plow machine to walk slowly and crookedly through the field.

But this guy is an old driver after all, and he got his driver's license after graduating from middle school, so learning the plow machine is super fast, and he can already operate it in ten minutes.

Although it is not as smooth and artistic as Zhang Feng, it is already commendable, and the learning progress is much faster than other villagers.

"Hahaha, big brother, can you see if I am showing off with this wave of operations???" This guy played vigorously, completely forgetting what the second uncle said, and operating the plow machine to fly across the paddy field.

"You bastard, I won't clean you up when my second uncle comes!!" With such a second-year cousin, Zhang Feng felt helpless.

"Hey, how is it possible, my father is home!" Although this guy said so, he still slowed down and drove more steadily.

"Haha!!! Learn to plow the machine, and dad will never have to worry about me plowing the land again!!" Zhang Yi said with a smile as he suffered another illness.

Seeing this guy having so much fun, Zhang Feng also smiled.

With the plow machine, it is indeed a lot more convenient for the villagers.

In the countryside, if there is any work that is the most difficult and troublesome, it must be plowing.

Therefore, whether they can plow the land is also the standard for measuring rural men, and those who can't will definitely be looked down upon.

Those who are proficient in plowing and harrowing are not only respected by everyone, but also have an advantage in finding a wife.

This shows how important plowing was in the former countryside.

It can be said that from the beginning of agriculture to today, plowing is the most important part of agricultural activities.

From the most primitive Stone Age to the Bronze Age and Iron Age, the way of plowing is constantly changing, because it plays a vital role in the improvement of agricultural productivity.

In the Stone Age, growing crops was only a supplement, and hunting and wild gathering were the main source of food for people.

By the period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and the later Bronze Age, people had learned more advanced plowing tools, and agriculture had also achieved great development, and the country's situation of being more advanced than tribes was thus consolidated.

In the Iron Age, not only the use of iron sledges, but also the invention of tools such as columbine carts, all brought about earth-shaking changes in the way of plowing.

In modern times, the invention of the tractor brought the plowing into the era of mechanization. Since then, agriculture is no longer the biggest factor that shackles human development.

Up to now, all kinds of plowing machines have emerged in an endless stream, which has greatly improved the efficiency of our agriculture and reduced our labor burden.

……

10 minutes,
Even counting the study time.

In such a short period of time, Zhang Feng plowed all his paddy fields.

"Zhang Yi, do you want me to help?" Zhang Feng asked his cousin after plowing his own house.

"No need, I'll take care of it in a while!!" This guy was having a great time operating the plow machine for the first time, and it felt very interesting. He wanted to play for a while longer by himself, so he needed Zhang Feng's help.

Zhang Feng shook his head, knowing what this guy was thinking,

Pushing the plow machine to the side of the ditch, first wash off the dirt on his body, and then wash the plow machine with the river water.

"Zhang Yi, I'm leaving first!!"

"Hey, you go first, I'll be fine in a while!" Zhang Yi responded casually, and continued to play with his own toy.

After saying that, Zhang Feng pushed the plow machine and walked towards the house.

"Sister Yingzi, do you want me to help?" Seeing Sister Yingzi pushing the plow machine to the paddy field alone, she looked so lonely, it was really uncomfortable.

Because the uncle (there is an uncle in each room) has passed away, only sister Yingzi and the eldest aunt are left in the family.

In the past, the mother and daughter lived very poorly. The family relied on growing some vegetables and fruits to sell money, and their annual income was only five or six thousand.

Now that everyone's life has improved, Zhang Feng didn't pay much attention to them, but he still felt a little sad when he saw a girl like Sister Yingzi plowing the fields by herself.

As mentioned earlier, plowing is a man's job, even for the men in the village.

"Thank you Xiaofeng, a friend will come to help later!!" Sister Yingzi thanked with a smile, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said in surprise: "Hey! Look, my friend is here!"

"Hehe, that's good. Sister Yingzi, I'll go back first. You can find me if you need anything."

Zhang Feng glanced at the person who came, and immediately smiled knowingly, so he hurried to let him go, he didn't want to be a light bulb here.

"Yingzi! I'm sorry I'm late!!"

"It's okay...it's okay..." Sister Yingzi quickly waved her hands, and responded shyly and hastily.

As Zhang Feng was walking, he looked back secretly, seeing the ambiguous appearance of the two, a smile appeared on Zhang Feng's face.

Sister Yingzi is not young anymore, and now she finally has a friend, Zhang Feng is also very happy, and sincerely wishes her best wishes.

In the past, because of the poverty of the family and the filial piety of Yingzi's sister, I always wanted to find a son-in-law who came to the door so that I could take care of my mother conveniently.

But at that time, it was difficult to find a decent boyfriend, and it was difficult to find a satisfactory son-in-law, unless a 50-[-]-year-old bachelor was about the same.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the two, Zhang Feng believes that Yingzi's good deeds will not be far away. There is no such thing as a seven-year itch in the countryside. It is estimated that after seven years, the children will already be able to make soy sauce.

hey-hey! !Zhang Feng smiled wretchedly, and walked slowly towards the house.
