  Chapter 143 New Pickaxe

  Xu Chenghou and others stayed at Xu Shiyan's house for one night, and went home the next morning.

  Xu Shiyan was very busy. He was called away early in the morning, and he couldn't send his father-in-law and mother-in-law to the station.

   Fortunately, Su Weizhong and his wife both understood, so they naturally ignored it and left happily.

  Xu Shiyan led his people and continued to toss in the new venue.

   After laying firewood on the ground, it is time to orient and hang strings.

  Orientation is to determine the direction facing the front eaves of the ginseng bed according to the requirements of ginseng for light and the terrain.

  The overall requirement is to use morning and evening yang, avoid noon yang, and not use frontal yang.

  Generally, at ten o'clock or half past ten in the morning, the sun exits from the pool surface as the standard.

  The flat land mostly takes the dew sun, that is, the pool string is oriented north-south or south-east.

  Mountain land is mostly in the direction of south and north, and the north and south slopes of mountainous land are mostly along the mountain.

  If the east and west slopes are not steep and the water can be discharged smoothly, they can be horizontal or inclined. If the **** is large, follow the mountain or **** it.

   Orientation is very important. Yu Shouguang found a few old farmers, and together with Xu Shiyan, took a compass to measure around the site for half a day, and discussed for a long time before confirming Yangkou.

  Fix the Yangkou, and then hang the skewers.

   According to the determined direction of the pool string and the specifications of the ginseng bed, the stakes are marked, which is called hanging string.

   Still use the compass to set the direction, find out the positions of the stakes at both ends, and connect the two stakes with a rope.

   Along the rope, insert a stake every five meters. This is the baseline.

  From the end point of the baseline, measure the width of the furrow string along the direction of the end line, that is, the width of the pool surface and the horse path together.

  Then insert the stakes, and each stake is numbered with an ink pen. Connecting stakes of the same number is equivalent to drawing countless parallel lines on the entire land.

  The area between two adjacent parallel lines is a furrow string. When digging the soil, the stakes cannot be pulled out or moved.

   It sounds simple, but the actual operation is very troublesome. The second brigade plans to make 5,000 feet of ginseng soil this year, and it took two days just to hang the strings.

  After hanging the strings, the next step is to dig the soil.

  Workers wielded pickaxes and dug up the turf and the underlying soil layer together to form a large adobe about one and a half feet square, which was buckled upside down in the middle of the furrow strings.

  At the same time, gather the subsoil on both sides to the middle of the string, and place the adobe on top of the subsoil in the shape of fish scales.

   After the adobe has been exposed to the sun and fully matured, the columbine soil is then drilled.

   Digging the soil is purely a laborious task.

  The picks used for digging the soil these days are larger than those used in large fields.

  But in Xu Shiyan's eyes, this thing is still not good, it's too narrow, and it can't be counted.

  So, Xu Shiyan began to take advantage of his rebirth again, and drew a blueprint.

   After asking for instructions too broadly, I asked someone from the industry to build a few new pickaxes according to the drawings.

  The new pickaxe is twice as wide as the original pickaxe. In order to reduce the weight, only half of the bottom is solid, and the top is hollowed out.

  The new pickaxe is so sharp that it can cut off the roots of small trees with two strokes, let alone turf.

   It only takes two or three strokes to plan a piece of adobe, which is more than half the effort of the original pickaxe.

   "My God, this thing is so easy to use, Xiao Xu, how did you think of it?"

  Xu Shiyan brought four or five picks up the mountain to test them out for everyone. After trying them out, they all said that the new picks are easy to use, work fast and save effort.

  Yu Shouguang and other brigade cadres who followed up the mountain were all dumbfounded, this new pickaxe is also very easy to use.

   "I'm thinking about it, the pickaxe we use is too slow, time-consuming and laborious, and the work is too slow." Xu Shiyan smiled.

  In the previous life, when this pickaxe first came out, many people rushed to buy it. The blacksmith who made the pickaxe made a lot of money.

   This thing is really easy to use. Until he was reborn, unless he was digging the ground with a machine, if it was done manually, he always used this kind of digging tool.

  Xu Shiyan hit a total of five pickaxes in the industry, all of which were taken away.

   Others didn't, so they could only watch others work quickly and easily.

   "Uncle Yu, don't just stand here, go back quickly and make a pickaxe with the industrial side."

  Beside there was that clever man, who hurried up to Yu Shouguang and gave Yu Shouguang some advice.

   "Order one hundred and eighty, the big guys will have one hand, and the work will be quick."

   "Uncle, I guess it won't take a few days before other brigades will come to you again.

  This time, don’t play up your style like the ground gun.

   Simply, just order thousands of them from the industry, and then sell them, even if you earn two yuan for one, can't you make a lot of money?

  It’s okay, uncle, think about it, at least earn money for the pickaxes we use in our team. "

  Xu Shiyan was even more ruthless, and he did something absolutely amazing.

  Anyway, this is what he did, and he can't always give it away for nothing. Even if he doesn't benefit himself, he has to let the brigade make a fortune.

  After being reminded by Xu Shiyan, several cadres in the team immediately widened their eyes.

   "Oh, what's the matter? What are we all pretending to be in our heads? I can't figure out this thing.

  Go, go, hurry up, go back quickly, find the people in the industry, and ask them to keep the secret.

  This pickaxe, if our brigade doesn’t make a fortune, it’s really a waste of Xiao Xu’s thoughts. "

  How many brigades are there in Donggang Commune? ten.

   Ten brigades all planted ginseng, and they all had to dig the soil. I don’t believe they were not tempted by such a useful pickaxe?

  Even if a commune orders a hundred pickaxes, the quantity is still very large.

   You don’t need to earn much for a pickaxe, just one yuan is enough, which is better than letting other teams take advantage every time.

  So, the cadres of the brigade didn't care about anything, and slipped down the mountain.

  As soon as he went back, Yu Shouguang immediately found the director of the industrial factory, and directly finalized with the other party that he would only make pickaxes for the second brigade, and the first batch would be 1,000.

  Fixed the industrial side, Yu Shouguang first went to the commune to participate in the field, found the director of the commune to participate in the field, talked to him in vernacular, and successfully sold a hundred of them.

   It is one yuan higher than the industrial quotation, and half of the deposit is paid in advance.

  The first step is successfully taken, and the next step will be easy. Yu Shouguang and the others continue to fool around.

  In a few days, all the brigades under Donggang Commune were fooled into ordering goods by them.

  The second brigade is so noisy, how can it not disturb the commune?

  The leaders of the commune were very curious when they knew about it. They went to the mountain to check it out and found that the pickaxe was really easy to use.

   "Old Yu, you are not authentic, you can earn money in groups, this is not acceptable.

  Well, about the pickaxe, the commune has taken over. "Several leaders of the commune took over the follow-up work without saying a word.

   "Hey, Lao Zhang, how much ginseng soil did your commune make this year? Have you finished digging?

  I have a very useful tool for digging the soil. It is fast and light. It is used by several brigades in our commune. Would you like to take a look? "

  The secretary of the commune directly shook the phone to find someone, which was a hundred times better than Yu Shouguang and the others riding a bicycle.

  Being fooled by Donggang Commune, the nearby Xinglong, Songjiang, Manjiang and other communes all sent people to learn from them.

  Then, they discovered that this pickaxe is really good.

  Donggang said, we have a part of the stock here, and if there are not enough, you can make an order. Do you want it?
