Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 305 Mu Xueqing’s Thoughts

After drinking, it didn't take long for all 11 people to recover.

Just from the fact that these people's mouths no longer stray when they talk, it can be seen that the effect of this deer blood wine is really powerful!

And one by one, they couldn't bear the heat and began to take off their cotton coats one by one.

What surprised Wang An and others was that the reason why these 11 people formed a "group" was because everyone wore more than three cotton coats.

Each of these five drivers wore four cotton coats.

You must know that the cotton coats in the Northeast are quite thick. If you feel cold when wearing one, it is normal. There is nothing wrong with wearing two.

But if you wear three pieces, it's not a question of whether you're cold or not, but it's like you're crawling into a quilt and it's difficult to move.

The quilt is a pile of quilts on the kangqin. It is very thick and heavy.

Fifteen minutes later, Hao Dayou said: "Brothers, it's time to work. The next wave of bricks will be here soon."

After Hao Dayou finished greeting, the workers filed out.

In the Northeast, whether it is a four-wheeled tractor or a walking tractor, as long as the ignition is started in winter, if it is used for the whole day, it will never shut down in the middle.

Even if you refuel, you have to pour it in while the engine is running.

Because if you dare to turn off the ignition, it will never be able to ignite again for a day.

It may be a bit exaggerated to say that you can't start a fire in a day, but if you want to start a fire again, it will definitely not be an ordinary effort.

Because the four-wheelers and walking tractors of this era were all water-cooled, that is, the water tank was filled with pure water. In winter, the water had to be heated to start a fire.

But the water in the water tank will not freeze if the engine is running. If the engine is turned off, the water in the water tank will soon freeze into ice lumps.

In this case, it is definitely impossible to start a fire, and it is lucky that the water tank does not freeze and crack.

And after the car is used up, the water in the water tank must be drained in time, otherwise the water tank of the car will be 80% certain to be frozen.

Therefore, although the driver and workers had entered the house, all the walking tractors and four-wheelers were still making a clicking sound.

These days, the chance of seeing a motor vehicle in the village is simply too rare.

So when everyone came out, the brick cart was already surrounded by children and adults in the village.

These people were not here to help unload bricks, but were simply curious about the four-wheelers and walking tractors.

Both adults and children are exploring four-wheelers and walking tractors, but they are just touching them, not doing anything else.

It would be wrong to say that these people were just watching the excitement. At least Wang Dashu, Wang Yong, Wang Ganye, Wang Daliang and Wang Shun were here to help.

In fact, only at this time can we see what "a family" means.

"A family" means that there may be conflicts at ordinary times, but when there is work, they will automatically come forward to help without asking.

"Family family" means that even if there is a real conflict, when fighting with outsiders, they will not hesitate to take advantage of others.

Because in rural areas, people have to stay together to stay warm, and living alone is definitely very difficult.

Seeing a group of people coming out of the house, Wang Dashu, his wife, Wang Shun, Wang Daliang and the others all came over.

After a few simple chats, these six people joined the team of unloading bricks. When Mu Xueqing saw these six people coming to help, she turned back to the house with great foresight and hugged all the gloves that Wang An had sewn. come out.

The six people looked at the gloves and were amazed.

Fur gloves look simple, but they are actually very technical, and if you don't have a sewing machine, they are not easy to sew.

Hao Dayou looked around and suddenly asked: "Brother, these bricks should be unloaded at the right time. Is it in the courtyard?"

Wang An took a look at it and felt that he was not sure about it. These days, if anyone passes by and takes a few bricks from you, you won't be able to fix it.

Even if you take a few bricks in front of you and say that there are a few bricks missing in the chicken coop, you will not be able to do anything.

So Wang An said: "Everyone, please bring your cars to the courtyard and unload them in the courtyard."

Following Hao Dayou's order, the drivers drove four-wheeled or walking tractors into the courtyard with a "dah-dah-dah."

Then everyone started to unload the bricks together. There were 11 people including Hao Dayou, three masters of Wang Dashu, four members of Wang Daliang's family, Wang Dazhu and his wife, Wang An, and Mu Xueli.

There are a total of 22 people, 5 brick trucks, with an average of 4 to 5 people per truck. 10 workers are dumping out on the truck, and 12 people including Hao Dayou and Wang An are unloading bricks and stacking bricks at the same time.

While unloading the bricks, Wang An discovered that 11 people, including Hao Dayou, were wearing cotton-padded gloves.

The cotton hand stuffer is really warm, but it is also really annoying when working, because except for the thumb, which is separated, the other four fingers are trapped together.

So although these 11 people all have problems
, but the efficiency of removing bricks is not high at all.

Of course, this problem was not only discovered by Wang An, but also by everyone.

Because the people in the car couldn't keep up with the speed of dumping bricks, the people under the car like Lao Wang's family could only watch, although they were in a hurry.

When Hao Dayou saw the gloves worn by Lao Wang's family, he discussed with Wang An and said:

"Brother, I see that the gloves you are wearing work very well. Do you still have those gloves? This is too slow."

Wang An thought for a moment and said, "There should be a few more pairs left. If they are not made now, go and I'll get them done for you."

Then Wang An said hello and turned back to the house.

But Wang An was stunned when he entered the room, because Wang An found that Mu Xueqing was cutting fur.

Wang An said with a smile: "My wife, you are a clairvoyant. How do you know that you are short of gloves when working outside?"

Mu Xueqing rolled her eyes at Wang An and said, "I know how to see through things. I think the gloves you made will be useful sooner or later no matter what kind of work I do in the future."

Wang An laughed, then sat in front of the sewing machine and started to make gloves.

Wang An was working without delaying conversation, so while making gloves, Wang An told Mu Xueqing about the slow unloading of bricks outside.

Just talking, Mu Xueqing suddenly said:

"Xiao An, I heard on the radio that the country is now going to let self-employed people do business. Our family now has a sewing machine. I want to make clothes, gloves, hats, etc. to sell. What do you think?"

Wang An was immediately shocked when he heard this, because Wang An had never thought that Mu Xueqing would have the intention to do business.

Although Mu Xueqing graduated from junior high school, her educational level was not low for this era.

But no matter how you say it, it is very far-sighted for a rural girl to think about this matter.

Wang An knows how to do business, and he can also do big business, but Wang An has no intention of doing business at all.

And Wang An had already decided from the day he was reborn that he would never do business in this life!

But, but, his wife has shown signs of doing business.

How can this be so arrogant? ?
Although Wang An could be tough and not let Mu Xueqing do it, Mu Xueqing would definitely be obedient and not do it.

But Wang An believes that it is better to persuade slowly.

After all, Mu Xueqing is pregnant now. Even if she does it now, there will probably be no big development.

So Wang Cangzong said in a distressed tone: "Nowadays, the price of buying cloth is not very good. How many clothes can we make with this little cloth?"

After hearing this, Mu Xueqing was obviously a little disappointed, regretful, or unwilling or sad.

Anyway, that expression made people feel that Mu Xueqing was in a very unpleasant mood at this moment, but Mu Xueqing didn't say anything.

Although Wang An knew that starting from the end of 83, cloth tickets would be completely abolished.

But in fact, starting from the end of this year, the cloth tickets have been equivalent to nothing.

Because textile factories all over the country are producing large quantities of cloth, there is no shortage of cloth in the whole of China.

You can't even sell it, why do you still need to vote for it?

　Thanks to my good brother "Wall-Climbing Swordsman" for the reward, thank you.
