Chapter 167
From the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the forest farm store has enriched all kinds of commodities.

Most of the New Year's goods can be bought from the store in the forest farm.

In addition, the unit distributes benefits during the Chinese New Year, so there are very few people in the forest farm who go to Songjianghe alone to buy new year's goods.

After all, it is not easy to go down, and food and accommodation are both problems.

The small train still runs every three days. It just left today, and the next time will be three days later on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

That's why Sheng Xiping asked, what are you going to do tomorrow?Could it be that the motorcycle card in the forest farm is going to go to work tomorrow?

If the motorcycle card goes down, it's okay for them to rub against the car.

"Let's get up early tomorrow, go through the forest to the Ma'anshan Forest Farm, and take a car there."

No, but Zhang Shuzhen gave such an answer.

Sheng Xiping opened his mouth, hesitated before speaking.

"Mom, from here to Ma'anshan Forest Farm, it's a little thirty miles away. The snow is quite deep at this time, isn't it? Let's walk in the snow, can we do it?"

From Qianchuan Forest Farm to Ma'anshan Forest Farm, there is a simple road in the forest, which is actually the former tractor road.

Ma'anshan Forest Farm is the first forest farm established after the establishment of Songjianghe Forestry Bureau. It was not called Ma'anshan Forest Farm back then, but Hongqi Forest Farm.

In [-], the Hongqi Forestry Farm opened the mountain to log, and eight sawers held curved saws to log. It is the oldest forestry farm in the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau.

When the Sheng family moved from Manjiang Forest Farm to Shuguang, it was Sheng Liancheng's apprentice who drove a tractor to Ma'anshan Forest Farm to pick them up, and then came through the forest from Ma'anshan Forest Farm.

Back then, construction was carried out at the same time as production, and felling was carried out at the same time as advancing deep into the Changbai Mountains.

Logging from Ma'anshan to this side, running tractors back and forth, formed a tractor road.

Later, although logging was stopped, forest management and forest fire protection had to be done frequently.

The tractor road in the mountains has been walked by people all the time, and a simple road has gradually formed.

The people in the two forest farms also communicate with each other through this simple road.

The snow is heavy this year, and the snow on the mountain can't wait to reach the thighs. On that road, the snow is probably quite deep.

"Never mind, never mind.

This year, the forest farm arranges tractors, and after every snowfall, they go to that road to run back and forth, so that they can walk. "

No, but Zhang Shuzhen said so.

The tractors used in forestry are all crawler-tracked ones, capable of climbing up and down hills.

Using a tractor to press the road after snow is really overkill.

Waiting for a few years, after forest transportation is changed to automobile transportation, there will be road scrapers on these roads in the forest whenever it snows in winter to push the snow away so as not to delay the driving of cars.

Having said that, Sheng Xiping was relieved.

The small train from Ma'anshan should leave before ten o'clock.

They walked from home early in the morning, less than thirty miles away, and two hours or so was enough.

This is the only way to do it. Why is the traffic in the forest area inconvenient?
It will be better when the road is repaired and cars can be connected.

At that time, you can buy a car and go anywhere conveniently.

"Well, that's the only way to go. For my marriage, my parents will suffer."

Parents can give everything for their children, but what can children do for their parents?

Originally, Sheng Xiping wanted to reach out to help chop the minced meat.

But Zhang Shuzhen felt sorry for her son who was exhausted from working on the mountain, and refused to use him, so she had to urge Sheng Xiping to go to Beikang to lie down and rest for a while.

Sheng Xiping is a young man, how can he lie on the kang during the day?
After thinking about it for a while, he simply led Sheng Xi'an, Sheng Xikang and the others to smash ice holes on the big river to catch fish with iron drills, nets, bait and so on.

There is no running water in Qianchuan Forest Farm, so people drink water from the big river no matter in winter or summer.

In winter, people make many ice holes on the river surface for the convenience of fetching water.

There are also children who are naughty and want to catch fish under the ice hole, but this also requires technical content.

When Sheng Xiping was young, he used a piece of steel wire, one end of which was ground to a point, and the other end was embedded in a thin wooden stick to make a simple drill.

At night, I lie on the edge of the ice hole and use a flashlight to shine under the water in the ice hole.

There are many big-headed fish in the river, and they will rush towards the light.

This kind of fish does not swim over, but clings to the bottom of the water, bouncing over, and stops moving when it reaches a place with light.

The color of the big-headed fish is quite similar to that of a stone. It sticks to the bottom of the water and does not move, so it is difficult to be noticed.

But Sheng Xiping had a sharp eye and could spot it, so he aimed at it with a chisel, stabbed it down suddenly, and poked the big-headed fish up.

You can also poke a half lunch box once, go home and fry it with miso, and eat it as a meal, it is delicious.

There are a lot of big-headed fish in the river, and they didn't take it seriously before.

After waiting for many years, I found out that the scientific name of this big-headed fish is Yalujiang sand pond channa, which is a small cold-water fish in Changbai Mountain. It is very nutritious and top-grade.

Sheng Xiping is now in his twenties, so naturally he can no longer catch big-headed fish like he did when he was a child, so his goal is Daman Bay upstream.

The water is deep there and there are big fish.

I'm going to Songjianghe tomorrow, and I don't know what the family has prepared.

He has been working in the mountains recently and has no chance to hunt. It would be nice if he could catch a few bigger fish and bring them to the Zhou family.

The location of this ice-breaking hole is also very important, and it must be chosen in a place with fish.

Some people say to lie down on the ice and see if there are any air bubbles underneath. If there are air bubbles, there are probably fish underneath.

But Sheng Xiping never used this method. He directly chose the position behind a big rock.

On the back of the stone, the water flow will be relatively static, which is the stable water area.

In winter, there is not enough oxygen underwater, and fish do not like to swim, so there are usually fish in places with stable water.

When they found the right place, they began to use iron chisels to beat the ice hard, gradually making a hole in the ice.

This job was not easy, the brothers spent a lot of effort, at least they smashed a small hole in the ice.

Then, Sheng Xiping took out a short self-made fishing rod, hung bait on the hook, and extended it to the water surface along the ice hole.

In winter, there is not enough oxygen under the water surface, so the fish don’t swim very much. When the ice surface is broken, the underwater fish will swim to the ice hole to breathe.

The bait Sheng Xiping used was made by him before, and it was sealed in a bottle. When he used it, he poured out some of it and mixed it with a little water to form a ball.

A fish swims to breathe, and suddenly finds something delicious, so why not take the bait?
The place Sheng Xiping chose was good, and after a short time when the hook was lowered, fishes bit the hook.

The brothers hurriedly dragged the fishing rod to pull up the fish from the bottom. Good guy, it turned out to be thin scales a foot long.

"Wow, what a big thin scale, brother, you are too powerful."

This kid Sheng Xitai also came, seeing the fish made Sheng Xitai very happy.

If there is fish, it means that there is delicious food.

In the past few months when the eldest brother was not at home, the family's living standard has dropped significantly, so Sheng Xitai likes the time when his brother is at home the most, because there is meat to eat from time to time.

Sheng Xiping picked the fish and threw it on the ice of the big river without putting it in a bucket.

At this time, it was twenty or thirty degrees below zero, and the fish jumped out of the water for a while at first, but gradually they stopped jumping, and after a while, they gradually froze.
