Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 123 Night Spear
"Good idea!" The father and son hit it off.

After carrying the materials on the cart, before lunch was ready, Su Mu and his father Mao sat on the kang in the wing room of the chicken farm, guarded the small kang table, took a pencil to write and draw on paper, and discussed again Some details that can be considered at present.

There were few trivial matters in winter, and Su Mu was also idle when he was idle, so he simply did what he said, and called the construction company directly in the afternoon.

The person in charge of the construction company was quite impressed with Huatanao.

When the racecourse was completed and the two parties handed over the work, they deliberately took a panoramic view of the racecourse from the hillside.The blue sky and white clouds reflect the green mountains and green waters in the distance. The European-style racecourse stands on the green grass, and the photos through a few low-hanging trees are simply beautiful!

Now on the success stories column of the construction company's website, this photo is the largest. Just because of the Huatanao racecourse, their website has several times more traffic.

When Su Mu called again to inquire about Waterwheel Mill, the person in charge naturally received him warmly, inquired carefully about Su Mu's needs, and then gave detailed answers.

In view of the fact that the construction company had no experience in building waterwheel mills, the person in charge thought for a moment and had to help with the design drawings, but the construction of the house required Su Mu to solve it by himself.

After all, there are relatively few waterwheel mills in China, and even if there are, they are mostly fancy shows made by some scenic spots to attract attention.If you want to build a practical waterwheel mill, there are many issues that need to be considered.The construction company can take over the work of horse farms, greenhouses, villas, etc. to build a beautiful and practical mill, but they can only find other foreign cases to carefully analyze and make design drawings.

Su Mu also said that it is understandable, that many construction companies have gone to build houses, but who would spend money to build a waterwheel mill in this day and age?
So it's normal to have no experience, but since the design should be done, the other party will naturally not rush to hand over the work.

Don't forget that the most intelligent people are the workers at the bottom!As long as there are similar design drawings, the men in the village who often deal with houses can come up with similar designs even after thinking about them.

The current task is to find out the location of the mill, and then describe your preliminary ideas to the construction company, so that they can start designing the drawings; find some good carpenters, think about getting good wood and prepare to build a waterwheel!
As for the worry about building a house in winter that will not be strong, the person in charge of the construction company gave good advice.

When building a house, choose good weather for construction; if there is permafrost on the ground surface, you must not use backfilling, and the foundation must be tamped and then tamped, don’t be afraid of time-consuming and labor-intensive work; warm and cold protection must be done well, and antifreeze should be added when decorating. As long as you are careful, it will not cause too much problem to the quality of the house.

After the preliminary negotiation, after lunch, Su Mu walked around the Peach Blossom River.

The shoal where Xia Jin and the others were taught to swim last time was the first destination. After arriving, I looked carefully. Although the terrain is relatively open, this shoal is full of sand, and there are many old trees nearby. If it is here It is estimated that a lot of big trees must be cut down to build the mill;

After pondering for a while, Su Mu continued to walk upstream. He wanted to build the waterwheel mill he imagined while keeping the original appearance of the Peach Blossom River as much as possible.

After another mile or so, even though the terrain was a little off, I finally found a very open area!

Moreover, the coast here is very suitable for building houses. If the waterwheel mill faces south, the house has a wide view, and you can vaguely see the pasture to the left; the right is close to the farm.

However, unlike Su Mu's original imagination, the mill needs to be built on the north bank of the river, which means that the idea of ​​placing the waterwheel behind the house fell through.

But then he considered a new plan. The gate of the mill was opened on the north side; the south side was designed as an open-air balcony, which happened to be in close contact with the Taohua River; Large houses can be built into water villas!

Thinking of this, Su Mu hurriedly took out a pen and paper to write down his thoughts; by the way, he took pictures of the site selection from all directions with his camera, and was going to send it to the person in charge of the construction company with his mobile phone.

By the time he returned home from Taohuahe, the father who had split up had already found a team with the help of the village head;

In addition, there are several carpenters at their disposal at any time;

The source of wood for making waterwheels has also been determined, because waterwheels have to deal with water all day long, so the choice of materials must be careful, otherwise the waterwheels that are finally made may rot within a few years.

The old carpenter in the village helped to come up with ideas, using light and hard elm as the central axis; fine and soft willow as the water blades; locust wood with the least performance change as the spokes and crowns of the waterwheel.

Considering the water flow at the selected site, the diameter of the water wheel should not be too large, otherwise the water flow will not move it.Fortunately, the water volume of the Taohua River will not decrease unless there is a severe drought, and there will be no major changes throughout the year. This saves a lot of trouble, and there is no need to consider the impact of the water level on the waterwheel.

Guarding the mountain, there are all kinds of wild trees everywhere on the nearby hillside.

There are three kinds of locust tree, willow tree and elm tree almost everywhere. The old carpenter spent most of his life tinkering with wood, imagined the approximate diameter of the waterwheel by himself, and saw the simple diagram drawn by Su Mu. The picture of the waterwheel found on the Internet roughly calculates how much wood should be used.

After discussing these trivial issues, everyone decided to go to the mountain to cut trees the next day!
The construction company agreed to help find the construction drawings of the waterwheel first. It will definitely take some time for them to design the mill. Taking advantage of the free time, it is appropriate to start making the waterwheel.

After dinner, listening to the north wind blowing outside, Su Mu lying in the warm bed was still thinking before going to sleep, as long as the waterwheel mill is completed, he should consider building a villa for himself...

In the middle of the night, a round of bright silver moon shines faintly on the earth outside the window.

The snow field, which was originally a plain white world, was illuminated brightly. Except for the occasional whirling north wind, the whole world seemed to have fallen into a peaceful sleep with this small mountain village.

"Bang bang bang!" In the silence, suddenly there were several piercing gunshots!

Su Mu jumped up from the bed vigilantly, and listened carefully, the sporadic gunshots that followed seemed to be coming from the south!

Probably because of the headwind, the gunfire sounded a little dull.But he realized immediately that the location of the gunshot was the pasture!
"Oops!" He jumped up, ignoring other clothes, so he had to put on a down jacket over his pajamas, kicked on snow boots indiscriminately, opened the door and went straight out!
