Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 119 Can't sit still
Go home, pull the cord, and turn on the lights.

The room is bright.

Yang Xiaotao looked around, and finally felt a little modern civilization.

It's just that there is no TV, no refrigerator, and no computer in this era.

The exchange column given by the system is only daily necessities, and there are none of these electrical appliances.

In other words, even Yang Xiaotao would not dare to exchange it.

With the pissing nature of the beasts in the courtyard, as long as you dare to exchange it, you will definitely report him for speculation in the next second, which has something to do with capitalism.

At that time, it is not clear, it is possible to eat peanuts.

No, it must be!
Therefore, it can only be used for lighting.

Xiaowei happily circled around the light bulb, feeling like moths flying to a flame.

Yang Xiaotao didn't care about her either.

When I walked to the desk, there was no typhoon, but fortunately, the lights above my head were bright enough.

Open "Principles and Structures of Mechanics" and continue reading and studying.

In the whole courtyard, the front yard and the back yard were pitch black, only the central courtyard was emitting light, which made people who got up at night feel uncomfortable seeing it.

Silly Zhu put his hands in his sleeves and came back from the toilet with dirt on his shoes. He accidentally broke a piece and turned his head just now, almost spraining his feet.

At this time, I glanced at Yang Xiaotao's house, and wondered if I should also get a light bulb.

Everyone has their own plans.

……

Time flies, New Year's Day in 1959 has passed.

Yang Xiaotao got out of the bed, pinched his cold nose, checked that it was still early, and leaned back under the bed.

He turned off the electric blanket casually, and slept for a while before getting up.

I have to say, with the electric blanket, I can finally live a warm life, even if I'm alone, it's... not bad.

After putting on the thermal underwear, I put on a thick sweater and wool trousers, and covered it with an old cotton jacket. After doing this, I finally kept the cold out.

Get up and put on the cotton shoes. These are also leather shoes exchanged. After the labels are smoothed, they are not afraid of being seen by others.

Take the extinguished stove to the yard, pour out the coal ash, re-ignite the coal balls, and then heat up the leftover meatballs stewed with cabbage from last night, soak them in steamed buns and eat them clean.

Take out the kettle and fill it with hot water, put on leather gloves, and go to work with your bag on your back.

This winter is very cold, at least colder than last year.

It just entered the twelfth lunar month, and there was a snowfall in Sijiu City. It fluttered and fell to the ground without ankles, and there was a creaking sound when stepped on.

Walking out of the courtyard, the snow piled up in the corner of the door has not melted.

At the entrance of the alley, there are fewer children who are playing around on weekdays. The scene of snowball fights in memory did not appear, and they all stayed at home.

Outside the entrance of the alley, a group of people under the organization of the street swept the sweeping poles one after another, pushing the trampled snow aside, but the road was still muddy.

In the era when there were no cement and asphalt roads, a heavy snowfall could make people exhausted when traveling.

"It would be nice to have a car."

Yang Xiaotao picked up a clean place to walk, bounced around, went around, and missed the electric car from his previous life more and more.

Of course, it is impossible to buy a car in this day and age.

A bicycle is fine, but this bicycle is not easy to buy.

Not only money but also tickets.

It is more difficult to buy than the luxury car he longed for in his previous life.

The difference is that before time travel, he didn't even have the chance to buy it.But now, with the help of the system, there is still a great chance to buy a luxury car of this era.

Follow the footsteps of everyone to the rolling mill, enter the third workshop and prepare to start work.

The people around greeted each other, and many of them were blue from the cold. Fortunately, the workshop was warm, and everyone was moving their hands and feet, ready to go to work.

"Xiao Tao, you're here so early!"

Wang Fa ran into the workshop wearing a military overcoat, and then began to undress.

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Leader, I 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 the tasks undertaken by their third workshop doubled as before.

The machines are still the same, and the manpower has not increased, so the tasks can only be shared, and their team has more because of their outstanding performance.

Of course, for this reason, they received a lot more rewards.

Just like when wages were paid at the end of December, their team not only gave each person an extra jin of meat, but also gave each person an extra [-] jin of national food stamps.

This also made the people in the workshop happy. Many workshops also introduced incentive measures, and their enthusiasm for work was even higher.

"You are better than me in making five-level workpieces now. I really don't know how you practice your fitter skills."

Wang Fa rolled up his sleeves, sighing with emotion.

Now the main task undertaken by their group is the grinding and manufacturing of grade [-] and grade [-] workpieces.

Among them, he was in charge of the fifth-level workpieces. Although Yang Xiaotao was a third-level fitter, he was in charge of the production of the fourth-level workpieces.

Sometimes I also help to deal with some simple five-level workpieces, with outstanding ability, which is the only one in the whole third workshop.

The rest were handed over to Che Wenwei and the others.

"It's about practicing more and learning more!"

Yang Xiaotao said with a smile, Wang Fa did not refute, mainly because he did not know whether to refute.

"I am looking forward to going to the grading assessment right now, to see if you can directly pass the exam as a fifth-level fitter."

"That won't work, we have to take it step by step."

"Hey, everyone in the workshop doesn't know your skills, so just pretend here."

"Hahaha"

Che Wenwei and the others also came over, "Team leader, don't worry, our team will have to improve after the next assessment."

"That's right, I'm also waiting for the assessment."

Li Nan came over, and he was learning quickly behind Yang Xiaotao during this time, almost catching up with Zhou Peng's speed, but a few people were full of confidence in the assessment of the third-level fitter.

"I also want to enter the fourth grade!"

Li Wei said expectantly at the side, and Che Wenwei next to him said angrily, "You want to? I still want to!"

"My old fitter for many years is going to be surpassed. Where should I put my face?"

"Where to put it? Of course it's in the crotch, so it won't leak out and keep warm."

"Hey, little Lizi, you've got some patience."

"Viagra, Viagra, I was wrong, please forgive me."

Yang Xiaotao watched the harmonious scene, and joined in to watch the excitement. In the end, Li Nan was squeezed out of a pack of cigarettes, and that was the end.

Several people entered the working state.

In the first workshop, Yi Zhonghai concentrated on cutting the workpiece. At his level, he relied more on experience and the feeling in his hands when working.

So when he was working, no one around him dared to approach him 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, sit down and 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 fell at the door?"

Yi Zhonghai nodded. He had heard about it from Lao Liu when he left in the morning.

Fortunately, the fall was not heavy, and it would be fine to lie at home for two days.

"Master, it's cold and dark under our feet, I think we should get an electric light."

Jia Dongxu spoke carefully, but Yi Zhonghai looked up at him.

With just one glance, Jia Dongxu couldn't express what was brewing in his stomach.

Yi Zhonghai remained silent, thinking about this matter in his heart.

If it was before, it would be like this if no one opened it, but now.

The brightly lit appearance of Yang Xiaotao's house made the people in the yard 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 dully. In fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to install electric lights at home, but he didn't want to spend money.

"Okay, then do you want to hold a general meeting?"

"No need, it's freezing cold, no need!"

Yi Zhonghai rejected Jia Dongxu's proposal, and if he really wanted to hold a meeting, wouldn't that be expanding?
This is contrary to his recent principles.

Jia Dongxu returned to his work station with a groan, and the people in the same group looked at him with disdain. A first-level fitter who doesn't work hard and fawns on this and that all day long really thinks he is someone special.

The group leader was also helpless. In this workshop, apart from Director Sun, even Yi Zhonghai spoke loudly, so he didn't dare to offend him.

After get off work, Yang Xiaotao had overtime work, and the day was over when he returned to the courtyard.

Kicked a foot in the mud and walked into the house.

Turn on the light, and the room is warm. Yang Xiaotao knew that Uncle Chen helped bake the stove.

I took off my clothes and shoes, took a rag and started to polish my shoes. If I didn't wipe off the mud on my feet, it would cake up tomorrow morning.

The Jia family, Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu were talking.

"Why is Yi Zhonghai deflated?"

Jia Zhang heard that Yi Zhonghai was not going to hold a meeting, and recently he did not get involved in the "war" between the Jia family and Yang Xiaotao, and he was no longer facing the Jia family on weekdays. Woolen cloth.

"Who knows, but he said he discussed it with Liu Haizhong, but he doesn't know what will happen in the end!"

Jia Dongxu picked out the kerosene lamp, and the stick beside him stared at the small eyes, turning and turning with the flames.

"If you want me to say, just pull a wire. Anyway, there are ready-made stakes. What's wrong with dividing one!"

Jia Dongxu said unhappily, and Jia Zhang beside him also nodded.

"When the time comes, everyone will be like this, let's see what he does."

Jia Zhang also wanted to use the power of the whole hospital to force Yang Xiaotao, and fantasized about installing light bulbs in her house so that her grandson would learn better in the future.

"Wait and see."

In the backyard, at Liu Haizhong's house, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui discussed things together after visiting 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 who come back at night, but also shows the spiritual civilization of our yard. It is also a good face in the street."

Yan Fugui was the first to express his opinion, but no one believed what he said.

Yi Zhonghai didn't point it out either. He was also afraid that if something like this happened in Liu Haizhong's house, he would suffer by himself, so he also agreed to pull the wire.

"You can pull it, but how to pull it is the problem."

As Yi Zhonghai spoke, they were silent again.

Yang Xiaotao was the first to connect the electricity. The wires and stakes he bought were all paid for by himself.

Yan Fugui had already tried it before.

"I asked the power supply bureau. In this alley, only one line can be pulled."

"That is to say, if we want to get electricity, we must separate it from that root."

When Yi Zhonghai opened his mouth, the faces of several people were not good-looking.

How short-sighted they were when Yang Xiaotao pulled the wires, how short-sighted they are now, and the slaps in the face only feel pain.

"That is to say, it depends on the face of this guy!"

Liu Haizhong was furious.

Asking him to go to Yang Xiaotao in a low voice would really hurt the face of the second uncle.

Yi Zhonghai also didn't want to get involved, but he had to come forward in this matter.

Yan Fugui rolled his eyes, and then said, "Why don't we go directly to the street to do it."

"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 if Yang Xiaotao couldn't take advantage of it, he would find another way, share it equally with everyone, and he could get less.

Besides, the light at the gate of the front yard is just outside his house, doesn't it mean his own house?
