The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 52 Installing Network Cables

The first two weeks after the chicks arrived in the chicken coop were really hard work, and they had to pay attention to the temperature and humidity, as well as the weather changes. They also had to observe the situation in the flock at all times, and they had to be vaccinated several times.

After two weeks, though, raising chickens became easier.As long as you pay attention to ventilation every day, pay attention to feeding and adding water, it will be OK.

After being free, Wang Shaodong began to think about the next improvement work in the chicken coop.

Adding feed and drinking water manually is very hard work. Although Wang Shaodong likes to work, it will be boring to do this every day, right?

In the memory of my previous life, my father installed a set of automatic drinking water equipment around 2008.Later, in 2010, Ma Zhentang installed a set of automatic feeding equipment in his home.Because there are enough funds in the family now, their family is fully capable of using these two sets of equipment.

I remember that in 2010, Ma Zhentang upgraded their chicken shed in all aspects, including temperature control equipment, automatic filling machine, and automatic water dispenser. The total cost of the two sheds was about 20.

Wang Shaodong estimated that in 2002, all those equipments should be equipped with less than 20 yuan.

However, it is a pity that in Wang Shaodong's previous life, he never heard Ma Zhentang and his father talk about where they bought these devices.So for the time being, if I can't want to go online, I can give the equipment a complete set.

Besides, there is a greenhouse that is still in use, and no equipment has been issued.

The 21st century is the century of the big bang in the information age, and the departmental, economic, and social developments are changing with each passing day.Wang Shaodong knew the importance of information, so after he was free in the chicken farm, he encouraged his parents to get a computer at home and then connect it to the Internet.

In 2002, it was impossible for fiber-optic broadband to reach such a remote mountain village as Taohualing, and only telephone lines could be used to access the Internet.The telephone line in Wang Shaodong’s village is from China Telecom, so if he wants to access the Internet, he can only apply for it from the telecommunications company.

After convincing his parents, Wang Shaodong first went to the computer street near Qilu University in Quancheng, and spent 3500 yuan to assemble a relatively ordinary computer at that time.Celeron processor, 128M memory, 40G hard drive.From the perspective of later generations, even a QQ game can't be used, but it should be enough at the time.

Not to mention browsing the web, it is more than enough to play 2D games such as "Legend" and "A Chinese Journey to the West‖".

When Wang Shaodong brought his computer back to Taohualing Village, curious villagers asked what it was for, and Wang Shaodong told everyone that it was a computer for surfing the Internet.

The villagers have never seen this thing before. It looks similar to a TV, but it is not a TV.

Not to mention the curious young people in the village, even middle-aged people in their forties and fifties couldn't hold back their curiosity, so they went to Wang Shaodong's house to see the excitement.

From the afternoon after Wang Shaodong moved the computer back, several groups of villagers came to their house every day to watch the excitement.

They are all villagers from the same village. When they come to their house, they must talk with them, make tea and pour water.As a result, Wang Fumin and his wife also talked a lot more.Then they listened to Wang Shaodong repeat more times every day, and they also knew what this computer can do and what benefits it has.

However, the application for connecting the network cable has been signed for a week, and the little girl who is in charge of doing business for herself said that she will connect the broadband to their home in a week at the latest, and Wang Shaodong is a little angry now.

Less than a week before Ma Lili's college entrance examination, Wang Shaodong went to the telecommunications company to inquire about his own broadband, and then met Ma Lili in Gangcheng County who came to buy clothes.

It can be seen that Ma Lili doesn't understand the fact that she doesn't go to school, and she even doesn't want to talk to her.

This, in fact, made Wang Shaodong quite heartbroken.

Even Wang Shaodong doubted whether it was wrong for him to regard Ma Lili as the key training object for the next step.

After meeting Ma Lili, Wang Shaodong chatted with her for a few words, and then rushed to the telecommunications company because he was afraid of wasting time.

When I arrived at the telecommunications company, the other party seemed to have a different expression when they saw me coming in.

The salesperson who was in charge of receiving Wang Shaodong last time was a girl with very fair skin. As the saying goes, one white covers all ugliness. This woman is white, especially the one that is as white and shiny as milk, which makes people want to touch it. Skin, no matter how you look at it, it will not make people feel ugly.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Wang Shaodong's motorcycle was parked in the open space outside the gate of the telecommunications company, and he put the copy of the contract he signed last time in his pocket.

"I, you, oops, I seem to give you the matter of connecting the network cable, give, give..."

There were not many people in the telecommunications company. Two of them were paying the phone bill at the counter on the other side, and a few seemed to be settling accounts.The salesman on Wang Shaodong's side seemed to be putting nail polish on his nails when Wang Shaodong came in just now.

Seeing the pitiful appearance of the other party anxiously about to cry, Wang Shaodong, who was going to question the other party angrily, sighed and said, "Sister, you won't throw away my contract, will you?"

While talking, Wang Shaodong half-jokingly took out another contract given to him by the other party.The contracts are all signed, and there is also a stamp from the telecommunications company.

However, what surprised Wang Shaodong was that this girl who seemed to be about the same age as him had an innocent face, blinking big eyes, and nodded towards him.

When Wang Shaodong heard it, his eyes widened in surprise: "What? Did you really throw it away for me?"

Wang Shaodong was really angry. He had to travel [-] to [-] miles to the county town once, and it took more than an hour to go back and forth. He had already made two trips just for this matter, which made everyone feel angry.

But before Wang Shaodong got angry, the little girl stood up suddenly, and said while running, "You wait."

Wang Shaodong was dumbfounded, what is this for?Are you going to fight?Why do you keep me waiting?
However, less than 5 minutes later, the little girl ran back happily, waving a contract in her hand and said to Wang Shaodong, "Brother, I found it."

Wang Shaodong really wanted to get angry at this moment, he folded his arms and looked at the little girl salesman who came over, and then said word by word: "I said sister, I have to go back and forth for fifty miles, and I have made two trips. You delayed me for a week, how do you deal with this matter?"

However, the little girl quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, no, definitely less than a week, brother, wait, I'll let them install the network cable for you."

Then, the little girl picked up the phone, dialed a phone number, and said: "Old Sun, you should go to Taohualing Village, Dazhai Township to install a network cable right now, yes, now, you must, go right away! Alright, I will send you the phone number!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Shaodong looked at the little girl stupidly, then blinked: "Is that all right?"

The little girl nodded, looking at Wang Shaodong with a cute and foolish face.

"I'll give you a lung, then I have to go home!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Shaodong ran out in a hurry, intending to go home quickly on his motorcycle.
