Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 43 Buying a Large Water Tank

After Jin Pengfei washed the dishes and tidied up the kitchen, he knelt down in front of Xia Chan and asked curiously, "Sister Xiaochan, what are you planning to do?"

"Isn't it the case that the temperature in the room is high when we burn a kang for heating in the winter? So I thought about planting some green leafy vegetables at home, so that I can have green leafy vegetables to eat in the winter. You can grow leeks, onions, and garlic." Cicada said as he smoothed it.

She didn't want to have to eat only radishes and cabbage all winter. Although these two vegetables were delicious, who would like to eat them every day?
"Students are different, they are so smart." Jin Pengfei said with a smile. Seeing that Xia Chan had smoothed the soil, he asked, "Where to put the wooden basin?"

"Just put it against the wall. Brothers, please be more careful when walking in the future and don't kick over the green leafy vegetables that I have carefully tended." Xia Chan said.

Jin Pengfei moved five heavy wooden basins into the house and placed them on the wall opposite the kang, one next to the other. The five wooden basins were placed close to each other like this. As long as no children came in and ran around, the wooden basins would be kicked over. It's probably unlikely.

When she found an opportunity, Xia Chan ordered a bag of nutrient soil from the 'Crossing Mall', which happened to be a layer for five wooden pots. Then she planted a pot of leek roots, a pot of garlic, and then coriander and water spinach. And a bowl of spinach.

The leaves of these vegetables can be pinched and eaten, and the roots can be retained to harvest one crop after another.

After planting, I used a small watering can to spray some water soaked in rooting powder. Now I no longer have to worry about them not sprouting.

In the evening, when the children came to deliver mountain goods to Xia Chan, Xia Chan gave them the things they had accumulated in exchange for the mountain goods during this period. One packet each of fruit candy, brown sugar and salt. They were all the same. In fact, Xia Chan later I didn’t weigh them anymore. Anyway, I just gave them more things so that they wouldn’t suffer a loss. There was no need to be so fussy.

And their parents don't have any requirements. They also know that they may not be able to exchange for what they want, so they let Xia Chan watch and exchange for whatever they can get.

Xia Chan gave some things for the children and some things that the family needed.

The eldest grandson of the brigade captain's family said, "Sister Xiaochan, my grandfather said that we need to drive the tractor at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I understand. Go back and tell your grandpa that I will be there on time." Xia Chan reached out and touched his hair and said.

She didn't know what was going on. Anyway, no matter what happened, it had nothing to do with her. She just had to drive the tractor.

If I had known that I would have to go out tomorrow, I would not have gone out today. It would be so hard to run one more trip.

But we have to go tomorrow anyway, so let’s go to the scrap station. If you don’t pick up any items, just go and see if there are any usable things. After all, Jin Pengfei, Jin Pengyuan, and Xia Qi each have a stone house, and they don’t have anything at home. .

Because they mainly live at Xia Chan's house with their brother and sister, most of their daily necessities are kept here.

Now that we have the conditions, we need to decorate the three of their houses so that they look more like home.

The next morning, Xia Chan ate a bowl of hot rice porridge, two eggs, and drank a cup of malted milk, and then set off. She arrived at the captain's house before seven o'clock, only to see people gathered in front of the captain's house. A lot of people came.

It turned out that these people wanted to ride the tractor to the town to buy things. Since there was a tractor, they couldn't stop the people in the team from riding it, so the cadres in the team discussed it and decided that the tractor would go to the town once every two weeks when it was not busy, and once a month when it was busy.

If you want to go to the town at other times, you can go by yourself or take a bullock cart. Anyway, tractors don't go there often, unless they happen to be going out.

Only twenty people can sit on the tractor at a time, so one person from a family should go there slowly and slowly, so that everyone can sit on their own tractor in the team.

Xia Chan nodded and asked everyone to get out of the way, then went to the yard of the brigade leader's house, drove the tractor out from under the hay shed, and then asked everyone to get on the truck. This time, the twenty people were all villagers, and there were no educated youths.

The educated youth probably went there yesterday, because Xia Chan met Liu Li and Gao Bowen yesterday, and the others probably didn't have the money to go to town every day.

When the tractor started to drive, the villagers cheered on it, and then chatted about the speed of the tractor and Xia Chan's stability, praising Xia Chan in their words.

It's just that everyone knows that Xia Chan won't consider getting married within five years, so those with young unmarried men of the right age at home don't dare to have other ideas.

The tractor quickly drove out of the production team and reached the road outside. Someone said with emotion, "This tractor is so fast. I feel like it can save more than half the time compared to ourselves."

"It's only two cents a time. If you're not happy, you're sorry for the money we gave you!"

That's right, a tractor ride costs two cents per person. This is the village's regulation, and the money is also given to the village. Xia Chan doesn't touch this money. Xia Chan can just get it from her salary, so she doesn't need any extra money.

Soon the tractor arrived outside the supply and marketing cooperative. Everyone felt very strange when they saw the female tractor driver. Mainly because they subconsciously felt that only men could control such a big body.

Xia Chan stopped the tractor, turned around and said to everyone, "Return at twelve o'clock on time. Those who haven't come back will find their own way back."

After everyone got off the tractor, Xia Chan drove the tractor outside the scrap yard. Xia Chan went in and picked out some usable furniture. After paying the money, she asked the old man to help her lift the tractor, and then drove the tractor there. She went to the ceramics factory and bought a large water tank. She also sold casseroles, clay pots, medicine jars, etc. Now she has started a cooked food business. She can't just sell to the post office aunt and her family every time. The speed of making money is really great. It's too slow.

She put the casserole and other small items into the hotel suite, while leaving the large water tank and old furniture outside. After all, she was taking it home, so she had to take it home openly.

After a while, when people get on the tractor, they can sit on the old furniture she bought, or they can squat in the large water tank if they are light, so that they don't take up any space.

Then Xia Chan had nothing to do, so she drove the tractor to the roadside opposite the supply and marketing cooperative.

When the time is up, drive the tractor back directly.

Returning to the production team in the afternoon, Xia Chan originally wanted to go back and ask her brothers to come over and carry the large water tank and furniture back. However, the team leader called a few uncles to help her carry the large water tank back. When she returned home, Xia Chan I grabbed a handful of White Rabbit toffees for each of the uncles, and the entire pack of White Rabbit toffees was gone.
