Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

Since the cylinder tile factory paid wages, the workers' enthusiasm for work has been significantly improved. Every one of them is working hard to death. After all, such a high-paying job is really hard to find even with a lantern. No one wants to lose it. This job can change their destiny.

Deng Shirong has been very busy recently. He has to be responsible for the food and drink of twenty or thirty people every day. This is not an easy task.

Of course, there were more than 20 young men and women helping with the work. The progress of building his house was also very gratifying. The foundation was dug in just two days. Because it took twenty-one to build the bricks, the young men were not idle and went up the mountain. Cut down pine trees, which are used to make beams.

In Shuangwang Realm, more than 95% of households use pine wood as beams.

In this day and age, paint is rarely used when building houses in rural areas. In order to prevent the beams from being bitten by insects, people use the traditional method passed down from their ancestors to soak the chopped beams in the river. The longer they are soaked. The better.

As early as two years ago, after his eldest son turned eighteen, Deng Shirong successively cut down a lot of pine wood and brought it back for soaking.

But at that time, I didn't expect that so many houses would be built at once, so the pine wood prepared was obviously a little short, so we had to let the young men go up the mountain to chop it down now.

Now that the pine wood has been cut down, the soaking time is not enough. Fortunately, Deng Shirong is not the only one in Naye Village to soak the beams in advance. Many people who plan to build new houses in a few years have also cut down the pine wood in advance and soaked it in advance.

Now that other people have no plans to build a house, Deng Shirong still has some respect for using the newly cut pine wood to replace it with the pine wood that others have soaked in advance.

Soon the time came to July 21st. After laying bricks and setting off firecrackers at 6:28 in the morning, the construction of Deng Shirong's house began.

And by this time, the summer vacation has passed without realizing it, and the sons will start school tomorrow.

In the evening, when the family gathered in the hall to chat after taking a bath, Deng Shirong took out a wad of money from his pocket, counted out twenty-five yuan, handed it to his second son and said, "Yunheng, here are your tuition fees and two dollars." Weeks of living expenses, you only have two semesters left in your high school career. I have told you everything that needs to be said. If you don’t get into college, you will have to come back and work hard. Only after you get into college can you live a good life. The life you want.”

Deng Yunheng took the money and said firmly: "Dad, I understand. I will work hard and will not let you down."

Deng Shirong nodded, counted out another ten dollars, handed it to his third son and said: "Xiao Song, you use this money to pay your tuition, and the extra money will be used as pocket money for you. You also have to start your junior high school education." In life, the two years of junior high school are very important and determine the path you will take in the future, so you must work hard.”

Schools in this era were not very standardized. For example, the school in Naye Village not only had a primary school, but also a junior high school. The junior high school was not abolished until a few years later.

The tuition of Naye School is not fixed. It may be a little more this semester and a little less next semester. This depends on the economic income of the school, because schools in this era have side jobs, and the school has specially set up a In the labor class, students are asked to work for the school, so that part of the tuition fee can be reduced.

Deng Yunsong took the money, nodded and said, "I know dad, I will study hard."

Deng Shirong counted two more eight-dollar bills, handed them to his fourth son and youngest son, and said, "It's the same for you two. I'm telling you now that you won't understand the future. Anyway, the rewards for the mid-term and final exams are I’ve already said that if you want money to buy snacks, study hard.”

Deng Yunhua and Deng Yunheng took the money and nodded together.

Deng Shirong thought for a while, counted out two more two yuan, handed it to his two daughters respectively and said: "Azhen, Azhu, this is pocket money for you. As a girl, you still need to have some money."

Deng Yunzhen and Deng Yunzhu both took the money with surprise on their faces, obviously not expecting their father to give them so much pocket money.

Deng Yunzhu was so excited that her face turned red.

Even the eighteen-year-old Deng Yunzhen couldn't hide the smile on her face. Even the red envelopes given by her father and other relatives during the Chinese New Year did not add up to more than two yuan. Now her father suddenly gave her two yuan. The pocket money was a big surprise to her.

Seeing the happy looks of his two daughters, Deng Shirong felt that the four yuan was really worth it. He smiled and said to his eldest daughter: "Azhen, Yunheng will go to school tomorrow. It's a waste of time to walk. Come with him." Go on a bicycle and send him to school. You can have a meal at the commune and then ride back by yourself."

As soon as these words came out, Deng Yunzhen and Deng Yunheng couldn't help but become happy.

Deng Yunzhen was happy because even though she had grown up, she had never been to Songshan Commune. Of course she wanted to see it.

Needless to say, Deng Yunheng is happy. He has been studying at Songshan High School for a year. The most annoying thing is walking to school carrying luggage and rice. This walk takes more than three hours, which is almost as long as others. It's hard work.

Now, he can ride a bicycle to school. Not only is it fast, but he doesn't have to carry so much stuff on his back. No wonder he is unhappy!

Next, the father and son chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

After lying back on the bed, Deng Shirong began to think about connecting others.

Now in the system space, the meat is consumed very quickly because there are too many people eating every day. Even if there are various fish, shrimps, eels, snails, frogs and other things to help support it, the meat is still consumed very quickly, and the house is really When construction began, nearly one-third of the pork belly was consumed.

If he has no more income and all the meat in the system space is consumed, he will have to spend real money to buy it, which is not cost-effective.

There are many young people of marriageable age in the village, but after Deng Shirong thought about it, none of these young people's marriages can compare with the marriage of Deng Changfu and Guan Yongying. Some have been quarreling for half their lives, and some have been quarreling for half their lives. Some were divorced when they were in their forties or fifties, and some were poor for decades even though they were not noisy or quarrelsome.

Naturally, Deng Shirong didn't want to help arrange such a marriage.

After thinking for a long time, he still had no clue. Deng Shirong understood that the resources on his hands were too few. There were only a few people available for matching. Such few resources were not enough for a matchmaker. It seemed that it was time to go to other brigades. I ran around and collected more information about marriageable men and women.

As for cooking for the workers, just leave it to the eldest daughter. After so many days of his teachings, the eldest daughter's cooking skills have become much better than before, although they are still far from being comparable to him as a father. But there are few people in the village who can compare with him.

The eldest daughter is in charge of the kitchen and has two or three people to help her. Deng Shirong only needs to prepare enough meat in advance every day to be freed from the kitchen.
