1983: From Land Sharing to Household Ownership
Chapter 18 Preparing to build a new house
"Humph! My brother is the best!"
"That's right, don't even look at who's brother!"
"I haven't seen the stone arch bridge in our house. It's amazing. Come and see it!"
"Well, they just have to take a look and envy my brother's craftsmanship!"...
Wanjun and the other three little girls stood not far away with the big yellow dog. When they saw so many villagers, they all came to watch their own big water ditch and big stone bridge. Their hearts were extremely proud, and their little faces were raised high.
They had never felt so proud in their hearts.
The bustling crowd watched for more than an hour before dispersing in twos and threes.
The old village chief did not leave with the crowd. He walked up to Wang Qiang with a smile and asked, "Aqiang, will you build a new house next, or will you reclaim the land and repair the water conservancy first?"
"Build a new house?"
Wang Qiang never thought of this.
"yes!"
The old village chief was a little puzzled and asked, "You have such a great craftsmanship and great strength. Isn't it easy to build a big house?"
"You can make such a beautiful and sturdy stone arch bridge in a short period of time. The difficulty of building a new house is far worse than this."
"That's right!" Unintentionally awakened by the old village chief, Wang Qiang slapped his big head in annoyance and said to himself, "I'm shackled by my usual thinking, why can't I build a big villa by myself?"
"Who said that big bluestones can't be used to build big villas? Isn't the big castles in Europe all built with big stones?"
Big bluestone is one of the most suitable natural materials for building houses. The houses built with it are warm in winter and cool in summer, and there are no hazards such as those messy radiation.
Many buildings of the ancients were built with big bluestone.
"Also, that kind of big castle can be well preserved after hundreds of years. Compared with the big villa built with red bricks and concrete, it is not bad at all."
"I can completely build a castle-like villa with a combination of Chinese and Western styles, which is made of large bluestones."
In two months at most, the cold and severe winter will come, and now living in the adobe thatched cottage that leaks everywhere is simply suffering.
You must know that my sister and the others have suffered a lot in the cold winter in the past few years.
Now that he has a magical golden finger, he has become the top architect in the world, and he is the most comprehensive one.
Also has a super strong physique.
Since the family can now build a new house with their own hands, why should they let their sister and the others continue to suffer from the severe cold this winter?
Just to keep a low profile, is it really necessary?
It seems that even if you don't want to be high-profile, you have to be high-profile once.
With his current super physical fitness, even if it takes a month or two to build a big villa, there is still enough time to open up wasteland.
What's more, the official planting and breeding will not begin until March and April of the Gregorian calendar next year, which is completely in time.
Build a new home!
Next, build a castle-style mansion combining Chinese and Western!
It is very challenging for Wang Qiang to build a large villa that belongs to his own family.
However, when the construction is completed, it is absolutely super fulfilling.
The most important thing is that now, I have endless energy and unparalleled craftsmanship of carpenters and masons, and I have countless architectural knowledge in my mind.
There is no doubt that you can do it yourself, and it doesn't take too long.
"Yep!"
Wang Qiang said to the old village chief, "I plan to build a new house next."
"Then...Aqiang, do you need help from the villagers when you build a new house?"
The old village chief said, "If I need it, I still have some thin noodles. Dozens of strong men who know how to build houses can still be called at will."
This little guy is too surprising, and more and more surprises are given to him.
Therefore, in the opinion of the old village chief, if he is capable, he does not mind helping.
It can be regarded as a good relationship and ease the contradiction between Wang Qiang and the villagers.
Of course, the old village chief, who seemed to be selfless, but was actually unprofitable, thought so when he saw Wang Qiang's magic.
"Thank you, mayor."
Wang Qiang knew it well, but he didn't reach out to slap the smiling face. He thought for a moment and said, "The new house I want to build is very different from the new houses you usually build, so I don't need everyone to come and help. already."
He didn't intend to owe the villagers any favors at all, and simply cut off the old village chief's thoughts, "I plan to build three floors, the first floor is the warehouse, and the upper two floors are the place to live."
"For the three-story building of the new house, I plan to use large stones to build masonry, and part of the top floor is made of wood and bamboo for decoration."
"This method requires very skilled craftsmanship, and the villagers can't help much."
Wang Qiang told the truth, it was not a deliberate rejection of the old village chief's kindness.
In addition to parents and close relatives, even in this era, there will never be love for no reason.
Wang Qiang knew this very well, and he didn't want to get into trouble in the future.
"Little guy, you don't use adobe or bricks when you build a new house?" The old village chief was surprised.
"Forget it, I don't understand what you're talking about. I don't think anyone else in the village understands. I'll just wait to see your new house."
"Hey! Old man!"
He couldn't help sighing, "Aqiang, when your new house is built, remember to ask grandpa to come and have a drink."
He was a little bit taken aback, feeling a little out of step with the times.
Afterwards, he talked with Wang Qiang for a while, then turned around and walked away slowly.
"Village Chief, walk slowly."
Wang Qiang shouted at the back of the old village chief.
No matter what, this is someone's kindness. Even if Wang Qiang is helpless, he must appreciate it.
At the very least, it was thanks to him that his family was able to distribute fields to households smoothly.
"Brother, our family is going to build a new house?"
"Brother, when will you start building the big house?"
As soon as the village chief left, the two twin girls asked with shining eyes.
"Well, construction will start tomorrow."
Wang Qiang said with a smile, "Today I will go home first, get out the blueprint of the new house, and build it according to the drawing."
Building your own big villa, of course, has to be perfect.
Therefore, compared to the stone arch bridges previously built, much more thought was spent.
Therefore, it is necessary to draw a drawing first.
Moreover, not only the drawings must be done first, but also the wooden frames of the doors and windows must be built first.
In the 21st century, in addition to some doors and windows specially made by rich people, the aluminum alloy glass doors and windows used by ordinary people actually have many disadvantages.
What's more, in today's tea city, there is no processing of aluminum alloy doors and windows, and the doors and windows are made of high-quality wood, which is economical.
With his current super carpenter skills, the carefully crafted wooden doors and windows will surely make people's eyes shine.
The next situation, as Wang Qiang expected, the construction of the new house is very complicated.
The preparation work has not been completed, it took nearly twenty days!
Mining stones, felling trees up the mountain, processing stone and wood, building door and window frames, etc.
There was also a heavy rain during the period. Fortunately, Wang Qiang had prepared enough wood to make doors and windows a few days before the heavy rain, and treated it and put it in the house to dry in the shade.
This is also because there are many big trees on the back mountain, and there is no shortage of wood sources with good wood to be able to prepare smoothly.
After the rain stopped, he also specially used the smoking method to deal with the wood that was not dry, so as not to delay the construction period.
Since the end of summer this year, many materials in Tea City have been released from control, and they have begun to keep up with the pace of the times and prepare to vigorously develop the economy.
Tea City is a remote mountainous area, and many things are different from the outside world.
In the past, many things that required various tickets to be able to buy can now be bought without tickets.
In the past few days, he took the time to enter the mountain several times, knocked out and captured dozens of big bamboo rats, and went to the city to sell them for money.
With a few hundred dollars in hand, he bought back enough cement, lime, glazed tiles and other building materials to build his own house in batches, as well as many necessities of life.
There are many walk-behind tractors in the tea city. They are specially used for transportation. It costs three yuan for a trip. They can run anywhere within ten kilometers of the county.
There are many temples in the tea city, which often need to be repaired and renovated, and a lot of glazed tiles are needed. Therefore, there is also a glazed tile factory near the county seat of the tea city.
The decoration of the villa, the eaves and the top, are still decorated with glazed tiles, which are more beautiful.
Cement is even more convenient. A few years ago, Chacheng overhauled the reservoir, and for this purpose, a medium-sized cement plant was built near the county seat.
Therefore, the price of cement in Tea City is not expensive, the finished product reserves are large, and the purchase is also very convenient.
There is also river sand. Wang Qiang also went to the river two days ago to pick up a large pile, and made a pair of bamboo sieves for screening.
Although these building materials are not necessary for him, they can achieve better results when used in some key places.
Such as foundation, biogas digester, bonding of bluestone slabs, sewers and stucco of some wall joints, etc.
After another five days, he finally prepared all the materials, and even finished the frame of the doors and windows.
This is also because he used the smoking method to treat the wood.
If the wood is not dry, it will not work whether it is making furniture or building door and window frames.
No matter how good the craftsmanship is, but the materials are not good, you have to be blinded.
Especially in the case of self-built new houses, the quality cannot be false.
"Brother, the materials piled up near the front of our house, as well as all kinds of wood products in the house, have become hills. Why haven't you started building a new house?"
This morning, just after breakfast, the little girl Wanyu asked with her face raised.
Ever since my brother said he wanted to build a house, he has been mining all kinds of stones and doing carpentry every day, getting up early and working in the dark.
It has been almost a month, and the construction of the new house has not yet started, so she is a little anxious.
Fortunately, during this period of time, my brother often went to the mountains and rivers, and from time to time he brought back a big bamboo rat and a few big fish. He ate delicious and spicy food every day, and it was better than before during the Chinese New Year. It took her so long to ask questions.
"Silly girl!"
Wang Qiang knocked her little head angrily, "Before doing things, you must do all the preparatory work, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort!"
"How can building a new house be as simple as you think? The most time-consuming and energy-consuming thing is all kinds of preparations."
He explained, "Once the preparations are done and the materials are in place, it will be quick to build."
"All right!"
He looked at his three younger sisters and said loudly, "Everything is ready now, and the construction of the new house will officially start today."
After a while, Wang Qiang took his three younger sisters out of the courtyard and came to stand on the open space near his adobe thatched cottage.
He first carefully checked the lime line on the ground to see if there was anything unreasonable.
I have to say that my father's eyes were still very good before.
From the perspective of Wang Qiang, who is now regarded as the top architect on earth, the place where his hut is located is the most suitable area for building a house in this wasteland.
The location of the big villa, he put it on the edge of the original small courtyard.
After the big villa is built, it is a good choice to demolish the adobe thatched house and reclaim that piece of land into a vegetable field.
On the ground today, Wang Qiang used lime to draw a white line yesterday afternoon, and even the area of the biogas digester was marked.
Next to the new house, a large biogas tank must be built, and the biogas can be used for cooking and composting.
In the sealed environment of the biogas digester, the interior can be automatically sterilized at high temperature to produce good farmyard manure, and the discharged water will not pollute the environment.
everything's ready.
Everything is ready to start work.
