Era: Winning since educated youth went to the countryside

Chapter 65 Reluctant or not
大坝子生产队早上七点上工，11:30结束，下午01:30开工，下午05:30收工。

Zhou Ziwen was going to take advantage of the lunch break to work on paving a stone pavement in his yard and the Chen sisters' yard.

The tools are all ready-made, and there is no need for him to go to the production team.

Although there is no rest at noon, with his physical fitness, he will not be tired even if he works for a whole day.

The physical fitness improved by the fifth level Bajiquan is no joke.

Although he has never tried it, he estimates that with his strength, he can compete with the bull from the production team.

Zhou Ziwen's stonemason skills were not very high, and the stones he mined were rough and even ugly.

Obviously he only wanted two thick stone slabs, but the stone he cut out was thicker than five fingers, and it was also uneven, which wasted a lot of material.

But Zhou Ziwen didn't care. If it was wasted, it was wasted. There wasn't much else in the quarry, but there were a lot of stones. After so many years of construction in Dabazi Village, only a small part of it was used, and it couldn't be used up at all.

Slow work leads to careful work. Although the quarried stone is completely different from what you imagined, it can be repaired later. It just takes a little more effort.

Zhou Ziwen had already been mentally prepared for this situation. If he wanted to complete a standard stone slab, he would need not only patience, but also care.

He was neither lacking in patience nor attentiveness. According to his plan, at the beginning, he would finish one stone slab a day.

Once your skill proficiency improves, slowly increase it.

His yard is not big, and it only takes a few stone slabs to pave a road in the middle.

Zhou Ziwen estimated that about seventeen or eighty yuan would be enough.

It took more than an hour, and finally, before starting work, Zhou Ziwen completed the processing of a stone slab.

This slate is made from rough stone, rough processing, fine processing, and finally fine polishing, becoming a flat slate only two fingers thick.

A large flat surface of the stone slab was polished very smooth by him with a grindstone, making it obvious at first glance that it was carefully crafted.

"Oh, that's not bad. He also has a polished face. He is fastidious. He is worthy of being an educated youth."

Master Chen came to the quarry to work and happened to see the stone slab polished by Zhou Ziwen.

"Work slowly and carefully. I think since you have to do it, then do it well." Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly.

"Being able to concentrate on doing things is a great advantage. You have this." Master Chen showed a satisfied expression and gave a thumbs up to express encouragement.

"Hehe." Zhou Ziwen touched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.

Master Chen is his elder and the master who taught him techniques. Faced with the master's praise, he can only bear it silently.

Excessive modesty is hypocrisy. With his learning speed, he really deserves this praise.

The time of hard work always passes quickly. In just a blink of an eye, it’s time to get off work.

After work, Zhou Ziwen was ready to experience how powerful his second-level fishing skills were.

Although he eats fish more frequently these days, Zhou Ziwen thinks it is good.

After Bajiquan was upgraded to level five, his appetite increased and he needed more food to be full.

Vegetables and corn flour alone could no longer meet his physical needs.

When eating meat, it is best to eat meat every day so as to meet the needs of the body.

For him now, if he wants to eat meat and fish every day, this is the most affordable and simplest solution.

This time for fishing, Zhou Ziwen chose the place introduced by Uncle Niu. Although it was a little far away, that place was indeed a good fishing spot.

It was too late, otherwise he would have made more preparations.

The second level fishing skill already involves some special baits.

This kind of bait is usually secretly prepared and belongs to every angler’s secret.Uncle Niu used secret bait, but Zhou Ziwen didn't ask.

Let's not talk about whether the person is willing to teach. Even if he is taught, it is still a favor.

This is the guy that people use to eat. If you teach him, you will be owed a big favor.

Just like the skill of masonry, he still recognized a master.

Although I have not officially become a disciple, it is not easy to become a disciple at this time.

But in the future, during the holidays, I will have to come to visit and give some gifts or something.

These are all etiquette.

But now that there is better bait, he is ready to use it.

One of them is marinated with wine and grain, plus a grass that is very popular with fish.

This kind of grass can be found everywhere around the village, but it is not difficult to find. The main reason is that it takes a lot of time and needs to be fermented.

But it's not difficult to handle, even Chen Qiaoyi can handle it.

With this idea in mind, he was ready to do the same.

It happened that he went out to fish, and Chen Qiaoyi helped him prepare bait. They divided the work and cooperated, and the husband sang and the wife followed.

I believe his unmarried wife will be happy to do this.

This fishing spot at the foot of Niutou Mountain is really good. With Zhou Ziwen's second-level fishing skills, he lost seven or eight fish in just half an hour, with an average of one fish every four to five minutes.

Of course, the fish caught ranged from big to small, the largest weighing nearly a pound, and the others were all small fish.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhou Ziwen finished his work and went home. This place was a bit far from his home and it took about ten minutes to get there. Moreover, pedestrians would pass by from time to time on the roadside. Even if he came back later, he would have to clean up his things. .

Otherwise, if someone picks up the fishing guy, he won't be able to explain it.

Although the fishing rod is not valuable, it still took a lot of effort, especially the fishing rod. It will not be so easy to find such a good bamboo next time.

"I'm back!"

Zhou Ziwen walked into the Chen sisters' home just like he entered his own home.

"Brother Ziwen, you are back. The food will be ready soon." Chen Qiaoyi came to Zhou Ziwen like a little daughter-in-law and obediently helped him carry the bucket.

"The harvest is good today, I will go fishing later." Zhou Ziwen stretched.

"I'll go with you." Chen Qiaoyi said hurriedly.

"Forget it, help me make a kind of fishing bait at home, and I'll tell you how to make it later." Looking at Chen Qiaoyi's pretty face, Zhou Ziwen was a little moved.

But thinking that people often passed by at the foot of Niujiao Mountain, he gave up the idea.

The future is long, and the future is long.

"Is it difficult? It's too difficult. I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it." Chen Qiaoyi frowned.

"It's very simple. I can teach you it. However, this kind of bait is a secret recipe. I will only teach you one person. Go to my house later and I will teach you slowly."

When he said this, Zhou Ziwen leaned close to Chen Qiaoyi's ear, fearing that others would hear him.

"Brother Ziwen, just lie to me, I won't be fooled by you." Chen Qiaoyi is also a smart girl. When she heard this, she immediately shook her body to show her disapproval.

But his eyes were honest and full of desire. Those big moist eyes made Zhou Ziwen like him from the bottom of his heart.
