Back to the era with space supplies

Chapter 378

Quicklime powder will generate heat when it comes into contact with water. When the lime powder reaches a certain amount, you can no longer directly stir the water with your hands, or wash the duck down. You need to use other tools, or pour out the water in the basin, simply go through it again. Then go to the water and rub it with water.

Si Ningning was pondering while memorizing, and improving while memorizing, until he made two more experiments and was sure that everything confirmed what he thought in his mind, and then handed over the complete plan to Zhao Hongbing.

At that time, more than half of the rabbit house of the production team had been built. The overall area was about 140 to 150 square meters. The walls were adobe walls that are common in the village.

That is, after adding the beams, the main vein of the roof is built, and then the thatch is laid first, then the yellow mud is spread, and finally a layer of this year's new straw is laid on the surface.

Although the whole is not as light as tiles, the effect of warming in winter and cooling in summer can be achieved.

Most of the cost of the roof was saved, but as for the windows, Zhao Hongbing didn’t spend a penny to search for the windows, not only installed the glass, but also spent a lot of money to transport it back from the county iron and steel factory. A batch of steel bars, and a circle of anti-theft guardrails are set on the windows.

Some of these funds were the extra public expenses of the production team in previous years, some were paid by Zhao Hongbing himself, and some were borrowed by Zhao Hongbing from the brigade.

Zhao Hongbing is determined to make a name for himself.

During this time, Chen Lianmi quarreled with him several times because of this matter, but in the end he couldn't persuade him.

If you don’t agree, there’s nothing you can do. You borrow money and you spend it. It’s not a big deal if you quarrel. Chen Lianmi can only suppress the fire in her stomach and secretly beg the Bodhisattva and God to bless it. For others, they can only hold back their temper and bury their heads in work.

The problem of the venue was solved, and the next step was the rabbit cage. Except for the manpower mobilized from several other production teams, Zhao Hongbing basically mobilized all the young and strong laborers of the three teams, felling logs, turning wooden boards, building shelves, making rabbit cages and so on.

The hardest people in those days were not the young and strong laborers, but the old and weak women and children in the team, because the work in the production team basically fell on them.

After nearly two months of busy work, the rabbit house was finally completed. More than ten rows of shelves were put in first, followed by rabbit cages. A shelf is divided into three layers, two meters long, and can hold 12 rabbit cages in total.

There are more than ten shelves, that is, more than 100 rabbit cages, but in fact, there are only more than 30 existing rabbits, and many cages have been left unused.

In order for the rabbit house to get on the right track as soon as possible, Zhao Hongbing told the educated youth and several families in the team who had previously changed rabbits to go back to say hello in advance. The share reserved by the family, and the rest are sent to the rabbit house in the team.

During this period, Zhao Hongbing found a few nimble sister-in-laws in the team to clean the rabbit house on a regular basis every day. In addition, he also found a few young men and girls to learn how to take care of rabbits from Si Ningning. Also attached to patrol the rabbit house, learn and practice observation.

Zhao Hongbing has always felt that the brains of young people are much better than those who are old and have not read much. The future development of the country and the future prospects of the production team are inseparable from these young brothers. of.

Therefore, in terms of learning technology, Zhao Hongbing has never kept his secrets, and he has always been keen on cultivating talents.

This is the situation of our team, but what about the other production teams?
According to what was said in advance, Luo Daqing had engraved the official seal long ago, and the little red book stamped with the jackpot was also sent to each production team. Before the three teams built the rabbit house, everyone helped Zhao Hongbing to see it. Therefore, according to Zhao Hongbing's statement, each production team gave a stamp.

At the same time, several kittens from the third team were also adopted. With Zhao Hongbing's prior instructions, everyone politely promised to treat them well, and many of them could go to visit and check at any time, so Zhao Hongbing couldn't say anything more.

Of course, besides these, Luo Daqing brought good news afterwards.

That is how he reported to the commune how to solve the problem of rabbit rations. After the director of the commune, Li Dekun, Director Li, Luo Daqing successfully got a bag of grass seeds.

According to Li Dekun, what is the seed of alfalfa? It is fodder for raising and feeding horses in the north. Rabbits and guinea pigs can also be eaten, and it does not pick the growth environment, so it is very good for farming.

Zhao Hongbing was so happy that he didn't order others this time. After he took the grass seeds, he carried a hoe and shovel and went to the opposite mountain to reclaim some wasteland, and planted one-third of the grass seeds first. .

Zhao Hongbing didn't take it all by himself. After he distributed about half of the grass seeds, he returned the rest to Luo Daqing, saying that it was distributed to several other production teams.

Luo Daqing didn't persuade him either. In fact, Luo Daqing was very clear about Zhao Hongbing's plan.

This is again advancing by retreating.

On the surface, it seems that the grass seeds are divided and reserved for the production teams to use later, but the actual calculation is that they have no rabbits to raise now, but they can plant alfalfa first.

At the end of the year, or when the number of rabbits in the third team increases in the coming year, then the alfalfa fodder will be exchanged for the rabbits.

Luo Daqing shook his head secretly, and muttered that Zhao Hongbing was really good.

He doesn't suffer at all, and something is calculated for him.

But what can you say about a cadre who is working for the welfare of the members and looking for a way forward?
"Okay, there's still something to do in the brigade, so I'll sit down soon and go back." Luo Daqing waved his hand, got up and walked out slowly, "If you have any problems here, or need help, go to the brigade Talk to me."

"Hey! Hey, it's alright, Lao Luo, then slow down, I won't see you off!"

Watching Luo Daqing leave cheerfully, Zhao Hongbing went back to the hall and filled two glasses of water, then shouted into the kitchen:

"Lianmi, I went to the educated youth place to have a look, and I'll be back in a while."

"Come back to eat early, don't go crazy!"

"Oh, I get it!"

Zhao Hongbing took off the hat on the wall, originally planning to go to the educated youth to see what Si Ningning was doing.

Perhaps it was Si Ningning who planted mushrooms and raised rabbits. Zhao Hongbing always felt that Si Ningning was capable and skilled, so he was very willing for Si Ningning to go to the rabbit house except for the usual literacy classes. It was as if if something was wrong, Si Ningning could find it out in the past.

However, the abacus was well calculated. When Zhao Hongbing asked about Si Ningning at the educated youth point, Jiang Yue poked his head out of the room and told him, "Captain, I have a rest today. Si Ningning went to the county. Academician Liang sent things, and he went out with Comrade Huo Lang early in the morning, and he probably won't be back until three or four in the afternoon!"

Jiang Yue asked Zhao Hongbing, "Didn't Si Ningning tell you when she left? I thought she had greeted you in advance."

Zhao Hongbing waved his hand and said "Oh" several times, "It's okay, it's okay, academician Liang is important, and I don't have anything important here, just come here to take a look. Jiang Zhiqing, you should be busy."

"Ugh."

Jiang Yue was a little baffled, but she didn't think too deeply about it, and went back to the room to lie down and read a book after she answered.

And Si Ningning, who was found by Zhao Hongbing, what is he doing at this moment?
In fact, Si Ningning and Huo Lang are already on their way back.

It has been a while since the last time I sent a kitten to Academician Liang, this time, taking advantage of the weekend literacy class holiday, Si Ningning yelled at Huo Lang and went to the county once to send a new bag of cat food to Academician Liang By the way, Si Ningning also revealed about the production team raising rabbits.

Liang Qinghong heard that Si Ningning's production team was going to raise a large number of rabbits, and she was silent for a while. When she talked with Si Ningning afterward, Liang Qinghong tactfully revealed some situations, such as the fact that one rabbit is sick and one litter is sick, and the same kind of infection is rapid. It is necessary to treat Yun Yun in the first time.

In order to avoid getting sick and improve the physical fitness of the rabbits during breeding, Liang Qinghong asked Si Ningning to remind Zhao Hongbing that there are several medicines used by female and pregnant animals, and the production team must always keep them in case of emergencies.

Si Ningning kept it in her heart, and before returning from the county, she and Huo Lang had been wandering around the county for a while. They had already brought back two big bags of the medicine Liang Qinghong mentioned.

One of them is placed in water to feed rabbits when encountering a situation, and the other is somewhat similar to the calcium tablets eaten by humans. When feeding rabbits, it is placed in rations and fed to rabbits together.

Of course, apart from these two medicines, Liang Qinghong also shared some other knowledge about rabbits, such as the convenience of raising rabbits in the countryside, new wheatgrass, old cabbage, rabbits are not picky, they eat all of these.

As for corn cobs, if they are reserved, they can also grind the rabbit's teeth to prevent the teeth from growing too long, causing lesions, or fighting with the same kind.

Si Ningning kept this in mind, and told Zhao Hongbing when he planned to go back.

The car was dangling on the mountain road, Si Ningning stared out the window and looked all the way, thinking of something, she turned back and asked Huo Lang:

"The little clothes I made last time, did you show Uncle San De?"

"Looked."

"What did Uncle San De say?"

Huo Lang looked back at Si Ningning, thought for a while, and said, "Uncle thinks it's very strange that duck feathers can be used to make clothes, but considering the limited size of the lakes of Team Seven, the upstream and downstream rivers are deep ditches, and there is no way to expand the area. Well, the members of the club don't support the duck feather issue very much, probably because..."

Fearing that Si Ningning would be disappointed, Huo Lang didn't continue talking.

Si Ningning understood what he meant, tilted his head to ponder for a while, then smiled slightly and said:
"It's okay. The seventh team has always had its own side business, and its living standards are guaranteed. It's understandable that the members are unwilling to take risks."

Huo Lang sighed slightly, and continued to comfort: "It's a pity that you have worked so hard to experiment for so long."

"What's the point? I didn't waste sleep and forget about eating and researching, but just frolicking and playing during the rest. What's the hard work?"

Si Ningning shook her head indifferently, but when it came to this matter, she couldn't help but say a few more words, "I didn't have much duck down last time, so I made a small vest for Sanae. After reading it, Uncle Sande, remember to take it." Come back, Sanae will still have to wear it when the weather is cold!"

Huo Lang nodded, "Okay, I'll get it in a few days when I have time."

"En." Si Ningning nodded, thought for a while, and asked:

"The seventh team raises ducks. If they don't plan to expand their side business, aren't they going to want duck feathers? Then say hello when you pass by, and ask Uncle Sande to help you keep it safe. You bought me a lot of cloth last time, and I'll make a vest for you and He Gu later."

Down clothes are not only warm, but also light to wear. You don’t need to wrap your body in clothes, and it’s hard to turn around when you want to do something in winter.

Huo Lang nodded, "Okay, I'll let him make more, and you can do it for yourself later."

"Ok!"

Shan Mantang looked back from the rearview mirror and saw that both of them were smiling sweetly. He scratched his forehead and asked, "Have the wedding invitations been sent yet?"

"Ah?" Si Ningning was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to realize what was going on, and his face couldn't help turning red.

Huo Lang shook his head lightly, and replied with a chuckle: "No, it's coming soon, when I want to send it later, I can't do without you."

Shan was overjoyed, "That's fine, then I'll wait!"

Huo Lang has always focused on Si Ningning's feelings. Seeing that Si Ningning was embarrassed, he chatted with Shan Mantang to ease the atmosphere:

"Don't just stare at others, you should also hurry up whenever you want?"

"Haha, definitely, definitely! The next one will be me!"

Shan Mantang scratched his head and laughed dryly.

In the past, it was Huo Lang who was urged, but now he started to urge others.

It really is……

Feng Shui takes turns, who will the sky spare?
Seeing the interaction between the two, Si Ningning not only bent his lips, punched his lips, but laughed.

Huo Lang's thin lips curled up, and he watched Si Ningning's situation calmly from the corner of his eye.

Yes.

All the time has basically been settled, and the matter between him and Si Ningning should also be put on the agenda.

Huo Lang's big hand moved slowly, and under the cover of the driver's seat, he tightly held Si Ningning's hand.

Fragments of sunlight poured into the car through the window and fell on the two of them. They turned their heads at the same time and smiled at each other.

After parting from Shan Mantang at the cable bridge, the two went back to the team hand in hand, and separated again in the production team. Huo Lang went back to do some trivial things, while Si Ningning went to Zhao Hongbing's house to report what Liang Qinghong had ordered in the county just now. information.

As usual, Zhao Hongbing asked Si Ningning to write it down on paper as before after hearing what Si Ningning had said. As for the two big packs of medicine, their functions and usage, they naturally wrote them down together.

Zhao Hongbing held the two packs of medicine and carefully stroked them. After carefully looking at them for a long time, he looked at Si Ningning and said, "That educated youth Si, a while ago we built a rabbit house in the team, and our production team's public expenses were almost the same. These two packs of medicine I owe you first, and I will pay you back when the accounts are settled at the end of the year!"

Si Ningning smiled lightly and waved his hands, "It's okay uncle, I didn't buy the medicine, it was Huo Lang who bought it. It doesn't cost much, so you can be part of Huo Lang's support team."

"Hey! How can this work?" Zhao Hongbing shook his head, "The public is the public, and the private is private. Why should he pay for the subsidy for the collective livelihood? No, no, I will return the money to him when the team is liquidated at the end of the year!"

Si Ningning couldn't say anything, so he nodded with a smile and said "ah".

After the matter was finished, Si Ningning was about to walk over, but Zhao Hongbing stopped her again.

"What's the matter, Uncle, what else is there?"

Zhao Hongbing waved his hand, "Ham, it's not a big deal, that's right, Academician Liang has helped us a lot. Right now, our team's sideline business is on the way to construction. When it gets better later, when you go to the county to look for Academician Liang, Be sure to tell me first. Don't say anything else, we have received so many favors, why should we return a little bit of it?"

"Otherwise, I'll be embarrassed to bother you if I have something to do later!"

Si Ningning nodded, chuckled and said, "Oh, yes!"

Satisfied, Zhao Hongbing laughed along, "Hey, there's nothing else to do, Si Zhiqing, it's a rare day off, you should go back and rest too!"

"Oh, uncle, then I'll go back first."

"Hey!" Zhao Hongbing sent Si Ningning to the gate of the courtyard, "Slow down! Si Zhiqing."

"Got it, Uncle, let's go into the house! It's just this way, what do you want?"

"Good good..."

In addition to the alfalfa seeds that Luo Daqing sent, in order to ensure that the rabbits have something to eat, Zhao Hongbing called on the members of the team to reclaim land on the hillside in his spare time, collecting the wealthy and even surplus vegetable seeds from the team to expand the farming area. .

The vegetables grown are given priority to the members of the commune, and then consumed by the pigs and rabbit houses in the team.

After the beginning of winter, the life of the production team has basically returned to calm, and the sideline business is gradually getting on the right track. In the middle of the gap, the situation of the new house at Huo Lang's side has been completely completed. He kept in mind his promise to Si Ningning. Without telling Si Ningning, he went to the county and brought back a radio and sewing machine.

Those two-eyed things were carried into the team, but the sisters-in-law, daughter-in-law and young girls in the team were so envious, they all talked behind the scenes: Why didn't you know that Huo Lang's conditions were so good before?
If he knew this earlier, who would care about the two little ones of the Chen family?

When the golden bumps were picked up earlier, it's Si Ningning's turn now?

Si Ningning had heard some of these discussions, but she never took them to heart.

The world has never known it earlier, and even if it did, so what?

If it's possible for those girls and Huo Lang, what's the matter with her now?

And is Holland stupid?

He is not stupid.

Not only is he not stupid, but he is also not a person who will make do with it.

If he knew that a girl came here for his money and didn't treat him sincerely, as well as Hegu and Sanae, would he still choose, or would he care about that girl?

of course not.

So, what do people say?

The mouth grows on someone's body, if they want to say, can you still go up and cover your mouth?

Si Ningning didn't care about patronizing her, she just kept busy with herself and waited for the day when Huo Lang came to find her and made the promise himself.

Finally, there was a school holiday on Friday, and the children in the literacy class were almost picked up by the family members who came from all walks of life. Si Ningning returned to the educated youth spot half an hour earlier than usual, and was discussing with Jiang Yue to take the leave next Monday. Come back for routine mock exams to test the children's recent learning.

As soon as the matter was said, Sanae and Hegu's joyful shouts came from outside the door:
"Si Ningning! Come here!"

"Sister Ning, elder brother is looking for you, he is waiting for you on the back slope~"

Si Ningning's voice paused, as if he realized something, his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.

Seeing her suddenly not moving, Jiang Yue urged with a smile:
"Why are you standing there in a daze? I've come to look for you. It's the thing you've been looking forward to. Why don't you go and have a look?"

Si Ningning came back to his senses, gave Jiang Yue an embarrassed smile, put down the things at hand, and trotted out.

Yes!

After waiting for so long, this is coming to an end. If you have stage fright, you are too hopeless, right?

Si Ningning thought about it, hummed and laughed twice, and walked faster.

But when Si Ningning brought the two puppies to the small slope behind the educated youth spot, there was no sign of Huo Lang there.

Si Ningning lowered his crescent eyebrows slightly, and looked around blankly, looking for Huo Lang's figure.

He Gu and San Miao were also a little confused, frowning, scratching the back of their heads and looking left and right.

"Hey, where's the elder brother?"

"That's right, I came here with me just now." Sanae pursed her lips and gasped, feeling very puzzled.

In the end, He Gu was the first to grab Si Ningning's hand and shake it twice, then raised his head and said:

"Si Ningning, I didn't lie to you. The eldest brother really told us to call you just now. Really, if you don't believe me, you can ask San Miao."

Sanae nodded, "It's true, Sister Ning, the elder brother is very formal today, and he is also very brave, um... and very powerful!"

Sanae used all the idioms she had learned.

"Okay, okay, I trust you."

Even though he was a bit disappointed, he really didn't see Huo Lang's person at the moment. Si Ningning sighed slightly, touched the heads of the two little ones with one hand and comforted him: "Your eldest brother must be busy temporarily. Let's go and leave him alone. I'll go back to the educated youth spot to play for a while, and I'll go back later."

"Oh! That's great!"

He Gu couldn't wait for such an arrangement, he jumped three feet high, "Oh oh oh", he yelled happily.

Seeing that her second brother was happy, Sanae also laughed happily along with "giggling".

Si Ningning breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a small smile.

If, as Sanae said, Huo Lang is very formal today, then he should really want to tell her about marriage.

With such an important matter, it is impossible for Huo Lang to run away. It should be because there are other more important matters at the moment, right?
Forget it, just wait and see.

Let's talk about it when he comes back.

Si Ningning's throat twitched, and he glanced around again, finally yelled, and walked down the ramp with the two little ones.

Meanwhile, where has Holland gone?
On the mountainside path a hundred meters away from the production team, Huo Lang was walking beside Shan Mantang on the way to the county.

"What's going on? Didn't you say anything?"

Huo Lang bowed his eyebrows extremely low, and he could clearly feel that he was not in a good mood at this time, "Suddenly so anxious?"

Shan Mantang's legs were flying fast, and while walking quickly, he tilted his head and explained:
"Oh, Comrade Huo Lang, I don't know the specific situation. Anyway, it seems that a few leaders came from the north. The director in the building didn't reveal anything else. He just asked me to come pick you up and let you go there quickly."

"I think there should be something urgent, otherwise I wouldn't be so anxious!"

Huo Lang murmured silently in his heart: nonsense.

It's almost time for dinner in the countryside. If it's not an urgent matter, why don't you come here at this time?

Huo Lang let out a breath, and silently followed Shan Mantang. For some reason, he suddenly felt a heavy heart.
