Siheyuan: Originally I just wanted to be a little transparent

Chapter 47
Lin Shengli led the way on a bicycle, followed by a master riding a donkey backwards.

On the way back to the courtyard, Lin Shengli went to borrow two pipe wrenches and an electric drill for drilling holes while passing by the street.

In fact, all these tools and other tools are available in the steel rolling mill. He just needs to say hello and borrow them for use without any problem. But isn't the factory a holiday today? How can he borrow them without asking?

In that case, if someone sees you, someone will make irresponsible remarks, and maybe even accuse you of stealing collective property.

You must know that there are many people who work in the steel rolling mill living in the courtyard. Who knows if their ideological consciousness may be ridiculously high. If they see it, I will report you.

A group of neighbors watched Lin Shengli bring back such a large amount of iron lumps and were curious about what he wanted to do.

Lin Shengli asked the donkey rider to push the car directly to the backyard, and he began to unload the things on the car one by one.

Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiefang from the third uncle's house saw Lin Shengli moving things and ran over to help.

There wasn't too much stuff, so Lin Shengli, Master Donkey Riding, plus the two boys from the Yan family, quickly finished unloading it.

After unloading the things, Lin Shengli paid the shipping fee to the donkey rider and handed him a cigarette. The donkey rider smoked a cigarette and rode away on his donkey.

Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiefang, who helped unload the truck, also received a handful of candies from Lin Shengli as a reward.

Many neighbors around were standing aside to watch the excitement, not knowing what Lin Shengli was going to do with the things he brought back.

Except for the stove, which seemed familiar to them, everything else looked like a lump of iron.

It's no wonder these people are ignorant. Heating in this era has not yet become popular. They have never seen heaters in large units, let alone this kind of homemade heaters.

"Shengli, what are you doing? Why is this new stove you bought so weird, and what are these piles of iron lumps for?" Finally, someone who was curious couldn't help but ask, and it was us who asked this question. Ask about the third uncle’s package.

Hearing this, Lin Shengli looked at the third uncle and said, "Third uncle, this stove is a special stove for heating. Those big iron lumps you mentioned are radiators. I want to install a heater at home."

"Heating is used to keep warm in winter, it's almost like a fire wall."

Lin Shengli was afraid that everyone would not understand what heating was, so he explained it in vernacular.

Although Lin Shengli has explained it clearly enough, the neighbors in the courtyard still don't understand it. After all, they have never seen it or even heard about it.

The third uncle heard what Lin Shengli said and said thoughtfully: "I know the fire wall. The one is connected to the fire kang. As long as you are willing to burn coal, the house will be really warm."

"But yours looks like a big piece of iron and a pipe, so this can keep you warm?"

"Is this warmer than burning the stove directly in the house?"

Seeing that the third uncle kept asking questions, Lin Shengli could only say helplessly: "How should I put it? As for the effect, you will know after I install it, but I am sure it will be much warmer than burning the stove directly in the house." ."

The ordinary stoves used in every household now, not to mention the small furnace, still burn briquettes and briquettes. The combustion is not sufficient, how warm you expect it to be, and in winter, if the air in the home is not circulated, it is easy to be poisoned by soot. .

Compared with a heater that can maintain the temperature of the whole house, there is no comparison at all!
Although they still didn't understand what Lin Shengli was going to do, they became very excited when they heard that the heater Lin Shengli made was warmer than a stove.

They felt that what Lin Shengli, the youngest engineer in the steel rolling mill, could do was probably right.The third uncle also said with some expectation: "Okay, Shengli. As expected of an engineer at the steel rolling mill, there are many things that he can tinker with. Then when you finish it, let the third uncle see it!"

"If it's really warmer than a stove, then I'll have to take a closer look." The first man also joined in the fun at this time.

Other neighbors also talked about it, saying that what Lin Shengli made was really new, and they would also open their eyes after it was done.

Of course Lin Shengli would not object to everyone's request. This time when installing the heating, all the main accessories had provenance. He had issued a receipt when he bought things at the heating factory.

And this method of building an earth heater was something he learned from the books of later generations.

Don't think that there are heating factories that sell you various accessories and you will be able to assemble them successfully if you buy them.

At this time, most of the equipment in the heating factory was supplied to large units, and the operation methods and assembly techniques of the equipment were different from those used at home.

In fact, this is the same as you can buy old-fashioned routers now, but you don’t know how to build a network.

Lin Shengli put together this bunch of parts. He drew the drawings and made the list. Otherwise, even if he gave you a bunch of parts, you wouldn't know how to assemble them.

Besides, these accessories for earth heaters are not cheap. They cost Lin Shengli almost 200 yuan. How can ordinary people be willing to spend so much money on this? But people who have money and are willing to spend it don’t understand this!

Seeing that it was almost noon, Lin Shengli had to hurry up and work.

When everyone asked if they needed help, Lin Shengli decisively refused.

It's not that he is unsociable or anything, the main reason is that if they help, the speed of the installation will slow down. If you work with others, the remaining half of the day will definitely be busy.

If he does it himself, the things in the house can be moved in the blink of an eye, but it is much faster than everyone carrying it around.

In addition, the equipment for installing the heater is all ready-made, and the rest is as simple as building blocks. It can be done easily. Of course, this is only for Lin Shengli.

Moreover, at this time, most of the rooms in the courtyard houses had walls separated by wooden partitions or adobe partitions, and it was relatively easy to make holes.

Seeing that Lin Shengli didn't need help, everyone slowly dispersed as they stood here and couldn't figure out why.

Seeing that everyone was gone, Lin Shengli closed the doors and windows and began to work.

First, all the obstructive things in the house were put into the space, and then various hooks and brackets were nailed according to the drawings. Then holes were drilled in the wall to pass pipes, the radiators were hung, and assembled.

After a busy afternoon, at seven or eight o'clock in the evening, Lin Shengli finally completed the installation of the heating in his home.

I tidied up the room and rearranged the layout of the room to better utilize the heating effect.

Lin Shengli's layout for installing heating in the house this time is that there is no radiator in the kitchen of about 20 square meters in the outhouse, and the heating stove is placed here. In addition to heating, it can also be used to boil water for cooking. The kitchen It doesn't need to be too warm in there, a stove like this is enough.

As for the original stove at home, Lin Shengli put it in a corner of the kitchen for summer use.
