After nuclear sewage, I can hear the voices of plants

Holding the rabbit in their hands, the Lu sisters felt excited about the trembling little life in their hands and played with it for a while. Then, at Jiang Yan's reminder, the Lu sisters put the rabbit back into the nest.

If it has too much human flavor, the mother rabbit will no longer care about the little rabbit.

After a simple breakfast, the Lu sisters pushed the trolley out of the door. This trip was to transport some coal to the village brigade. The greenhouse in the neighbor's backyard has been built, and now they need some coal. temperature.

The season has now entered late autumn, and the temperature is only a few degrees above zero. Plants are unlikely to survive during this period. If you want to grow food, you can only grow it in a greenhouse.

The greenhouse in the front yard is filled with various vegetables, including some staple foods, but they are not fully mature yet. They should be almost ready in a month or two, but by then it will be around the Chinese New Year.

In the backyard, with Zhao Dabai's help, all the land has been reclaimed. The next thing that needs to be done is to increase the temperature and plant crops.

Taking the potato and soybean seeds, Jiang Yan went to the greenhouse in the backyard of his neighbor's house. He cut the sprouted potatoes into small pieces according to the green sprouts. Jiang Yan took out the farm tools and started to prepare for farming.

Outside the hospital, the Lu sisters rushed back with a whole cart of coal in about half an hour. They put the coal in the hot stove and lit it with the help of firewood. The Lu sisters pushed the cart out again.

Winter is coming soon, and Jiang Yan is in urgent need of a large amount of coal to survive the winter. Jiang Yan does not need coal to keep himself warm. He only needs ordinary firewood to burn the kang. The temperature of coal is too high, and the coal-burning house will be too hot to accommodate people, but the greenhouse A large amount of coal is required.

The temperature of the greenhouse needs to be maintained at about [-] degrees. This temperature is completely unreachable with ordinary firewood, and coal plays a big role at this moment.

Asking the Lu sisters to transport coal, Jiang Yan took out a hoe and started cultivating, digging out ridges. Jiang Yan evenly sprinkled the prepared potato sprouts and soybeans on the ridge platform.

After finishing all this, Jiang Yan covered the soil on both sides, and then poured an appropriate amount of water on it.

Jiang Yan repeated this action for a whole day, while the Lu sisters only carried coal for most of the day. Carrying coal was heavy manual labor. By two o'clock in the afternoon, the Lu sisters were almost exhausted.

Sitting slumped on the chairs, the Lu sisters drank gulps of water and picked some meat sticks to eat. After resting for nearly an hour, the Lu sisters finally recovered and walked to the backyard where Jiang Yan was to help Jiang Yan farm. .

With the help of the Lu sisters, Jiang Yan quickly sown all the seeds. The entire greenhouse was filled with potatoes and soybeans, and there was no piece of land left.

The desire to eat rice is more difficult. After planting the paddy field in the front yard, Jiang Yan has given up on large-scale paddy field cultivation in greenhouses. However, Jiang Yan still leaves some escape routes. The greenhouse in the neighbor's backyard is full of potatoes. and soybeans, and therefore, a large open space was left in his backyard.

Maybe tomorrow spring, Jiang Yan can transplant the rice and wheat planted in the neighbor's front yard and turn his own backyard into a paddy field, which will save much trouble.

Planting potatoes and soybeans did not use all of Jiang Yan's potato and soybean seeds. Not many potatoes were left behind, but nearly a barrel of soybeans was left behind.

With so many soybeans, Jiang Yan suddenly thought of something that every household would make when he was a child.

Rural soybean paste.Jiang Yan had already prepared to make soybean paste before, but the monsoon happened to be coming at that time, so Jiang Yan put the matter aside, but now, Jiang Yan already had enough time.

Early in the morning, Jiang Yan got up early and carried the sauce vat to the well. After Jiang Yan cleaned the sauce vat, he then carried a bucket full of soybeans from the living room to the stove.

Wash the soybeans with clean water, and Jiang Yan pours well water into the pot. Watching the water boil, Jiang Yan cooks all the soybeans. The Lu family sisters who have already gotten up beside them use small spatulas to crush all the cooked soybeans. Crush them, knead them into cubes of bean paste, and put them aside neatly.

Like an assembly line, Jiang Yan was cooking the beans, while the Lu sisters were grinding the beans. When everything was finally done, neat cubes of soybean paste were placed in the airy living room by Jiang Yan and the other three.

Making soybean paste requires a paste base, which means that all the cubes of soybean paste are naturally fermented. When white pili grow on the soybean paste, it means that the fermentation of the soybean base has been completed.

After doing this, Jiang Yan sorted out the remaining food at home, and then dug out a large number of salt bags from the basement.

Jiang Yan stored a lot of table salt, and also a lot of kelp. When a nuclear power plant in an island country exploded, Jiang Yan's parents stored a lot of iodized salt and kelp at that time, so that until the day Jiang Yan died , I haven’t even finished eating the kelp.

And there was even more iodized salt. Not only that time, but also during the last nuclear sewage accident, Jiang Yan and her parents also stored a large amount of iodized salt, so much that it was piled in the corner like cement bags.

Similar to the situation of Jiang Yan's family, other families in Shengjia Village also stocked up a large amount of edible salt, so that Jiang Yan had no shortage of edible salt at all.

While waiting for the sauce base to ferment naturally, Jiang Yan started making tricycles during this period.

The last time they went to Meihe Settlement, Jiang Yan and the others went there on their legs. When they arrived at Meihe Settlement, all three of them had weak legs. This made Jiang Yan see the limitations of the battery car.

Jiang Yan pushed a pedal tricycle from a neighbor's house. Jiang Yan asked Lu Linlin to think about how to make a battery tricycle that three people could ride on. Because there was no welding machine, Lu Linlin stared at the battery tricycle in a daze for a long time, and finally a few days later Draw a sketch of a battery tricycle.

Farmers' pedal tricycles have an iron frame filled with wooden boards. After 50 years, the iron frame has corroded like potato chips and breaks into pieces when pinched. Lu Linlin brought back the wheels that had not changed much. Started making a battery tricycle.

Lu Linlin didn't know much about the structure of the battery car. Without knowing how to disassemble and install the circuit, Lu Linlin chose the simplest way, towing the car.

After removing the seat cushion from the back seat of the battery car, Lu Linlin sawed the square steel stored by Jiang Yan into small pieces, and then fixed it to the back seat of the battery car with screws.

Two long strips were extended from the square steel, and the steel was used to extend the general shape of a car hanger under the iron bars. Lu Linlin fixed the two wheels on both sides of the car hanger.

The square steel outlined the skeleton of the cradle, and with the help of Jiang Yan and others, Lu Linlin cut down several large trees and cut the required wood one by one. Lu Linlin fixed the wooden boards to the cradle one by one.

With the filling of wooden boards, at this moment, the carriage in front of her finally took on its own shape. After testing its strength, Jiang Yan was surprised to find that this carriage could actually weigh hundreds of kilograms!
