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

Chapter 720: The Delayed Scientist

It can be seen that Wang Dazhu was full of nervousness and anxiety at this time, and obviously had no confidence in the rice transplanter.

Before Wang An could speak, Liu Guilan said:
"They've been tinkering with it ever since they came back, so I guess I'm doing the same thing."

It can be heard that Liu Guilan is forcing herself to deceive herself, or to comfort herself.

Wang An glanced at his parents and said with a smile:

"Just be at ease. You'll know after trying it tomorrow."

Wang Dazhu looked at the rice transplanter, frowned and asked:

"If it doesn't work, then all your efforts are in vain, right?"

Liu Guilan interrupted, "It's okay to make a fuss, but I'm afraid that the land will be wasted. It's so hard to divide the land, and then have to buy food at the end of the year. That would be so embarrassing."

After hearing the questioning over and over again, to be honest, Wang An was really getting a little impatient.

The main thing is that there is not a single old person among these people who looks up to me and believes in me, even my own parents are a bit endless.

Moreover, to modify the rice transplanter, it is necessary to add or remove parts. Unfortunately, there are few alternatives in this era. If you want to use a certain part, you can only find a way to make it yourself. However, not only do you not have the tools, you also don’t have the materials.

This caused Wang An to be a little upset at the moment. To use the Northeastern dialect, he was "really angry!"
So, without even raising his head, Wang An said with a hint of displeasure:

"If this thing doesn't work, I'll plant rice seedlings with you guys starting tomorrow, okay?"

It can be said that parents know best what their children are like. Wang Dazhu and his wife naturally understood what Wang An's unhappy tone meant at this time.

So when Wang Dazhu and his wife heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other.

Then Liu Guilan seemed to want to say something, but she opened her mouth and nothing came out.

After a while, Wang An looked up and saw his parents were still watching him. He frowned helplessly and said:
"You two should stop standing there and do what you need to do."

Wang Dazhu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and seemed to be about to get angry, but seeing Wang An's serious but sad expression, he forced himself to hold it back.

After thinking for a while, he said:

"I used to tinker with this thing, so why don't I take a look with you two?"

Hearing this, Wang An felt a little better instantly.

The main thing was that after an entire afternoon, Wang Anke finally heard a word of support.

Wang An pointed to the gears above and said:
"Dad, look at this gear. It's bound to leak if it moves back and forth. I've put several layers of iron sheets on it. The main reason is that the gear shaft is smooth and there's nothing blocking it, so the iron sheets can't get stuck."

To be honest, this is actually a problem that can be solved with an electric drill, because you just need to drill a hole on the gear shaft and then insert a pin.

But let alone an electric drill, there is not even electricity in Kaoshantun. The most important thing is that the gear shaft is very hard, and it is useless without a drill bit that is hard enough.

Wang Dazhu squatted there and watched for a long time, then said to Wang An:
"This thing is so slippery that it's going to be very hard to get stuck. I'll just hold it here with two levers, and keep pulling on the gear."

When Wang An heard this, he was confused for a moment and was stunned.

Seeing Wang An's puzzled expression, Wang Dazhu didn't say anything, but picked up the thick wire and pliers, and began to bend it back and forth with great effort. Soon, Wang Dazhu folded the thick wire into a very strange shape.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Dazhu screwed the strange-shaped wire onto the angle iron on the left side of the gear shaft.

Following the same pattern, Wang Dazhui bent another wire like this and screwed it onto the angle iron on the right side of the gear shaft.

When Wang Dazhu hooked the two wires together, Wang An was so shocked that he was speechless.

The main thing is that these two thick iron wires act like a synchronizer, allowing the two movable gears to always engage with the teeth.

It can be said that the problem of gear dislocation was solved instantly.

The most important thing is that if some dirt or grass roots get between the gears, it will not completely entangle the gears and prevent them from turning.
Although his father always liked to tinker with something, it was not until now that Wang An realized that his father was obviously a delayed scientist!

Just when Wang An was wondering why his father was not a scientist, Wang Dazhu suddenly said:
"Xiao An, try it again and see if it works. It will be dark soon."

Wang An nodded quickly and stood up. He turned the wheel of the rice transplanter and observed the meshing of the two gears.

Sure enough, Wang Dazhu's method is simply perfect!
Only after all three rice transplanters were equipped with the "synchronizer" researched by Wang Dazhu did Wang An feel happy, but he complained to Wang Dazhu:
"Dad, why didn't you come back earlier? We've been tinkering with it for the whole afternoon. I was thinking of taking the rice transplanter to the county town to drill holes."

After helping his son solve the big problem and listening to his son's complaints which actually meant he needed him, Wang Dazhu instantly felt so happy that he almost burst into snot bubbles.

Although he tried hard to hold it back, the smile on his face could not be stopped. He pretended to reprimand Wang Andao in a harsh tone:

"You've been busy all day, and you don't even bother to give me a cigarette? The more you live, the more you get lost."

Wang An laughed and said:

"Cigarettes, you must have cigarettes, and they must be good cigarettes, hahahaha"

As he spoke, Wang An took out a Classic Ice City cigarette, lit one for his father, and then gave one to Wang Li. The three of them began to puff away smoke.

After smoking half a cigarette, Wang Dazhu looked at the cigarette holder, then asked Wang An with a puzzled look on his face:
"What kind of cigarette is this? Why have I never smoked it before?"

Wang An asked with a smile:

"How's it? Is this cigarette good to smoke?"

Wang Dazhu nodded and said:
"Well, it's pretty good. It's easier to smoke than Changbai Mountain, but not as strong as Changbai Mountain."

Wang An took out four boxes of cigarettes and handed them over, smiling and saying:
"I bought this especially for you. Classic Ice City. 3 cents a box."

When Wang Dazhu heard this, he was stunned at first, then he said angrily:
"You loser, these two boxes of cigarettes are enough to buy a pack of Changbaishan. It would be great if you could buy two packs of Changbaishan with these four boxes! That's enough for me to smoke for most of the month, you loser."

Having said that, Wang Dazhu put all four boxes of cigarettes into the shoulder pocket inside his clothes and checked them carefully after putting them in.

Looking at Wang An's half-filled bag of cigarettes, Wang Dazhu blinked and suddenly said:
"Well, this cigarette is not strong. Give me another one."
