Hello, 1983

In the winter morning, the mountains and forests are covered with snow everywhere, which is very peaceful.

woohoo-

Liu Qingshan snorted white air from his mouth and walked through the mountains and forests unhurriedly.

In fact, under the cover of white snow, there is no lack of vitality in the woods:

Chachacha, the occasional call of magpies could be heard from the tree.

The little squirrel poked its small head out of the tree hole, checked the movement, and then nimbly retracted, holding the big hazelnut in its small paws, enjoying the fruits of its labor.

Other animals are not so lucky, and have to run around to survive, so various marks are left on the snow.

There is snow arched by wild boars, and footprints left by various birds and beasts. In winter, it is not easy to survive.

But to survive in this harsh environment, their vitality is very tough.

Liu Qingshan ran like this, comprehending the unique charm of nature, and finally came to the front of the wooden house.

Li Tie Niu was already up, and under the guidance of the dumb grandfather, he was working hard.

Next to him was a yawning peak, who was bringing out the baskets one by one from the woodcut, drying the herbs inside.

There is also a small shed next to the wooden house. The little head of the fragrant deer peeked out of it and looked around curiously.

"When you have time tomorrow, take out the stock in your sachet!"

Liu Qingshan shouted, and Xiang Zhangzi immediately retracted his little head, making Liu Qingshan want to laugh.

"Little Senior Brother, you're back, it's time for us to practice." Li Tieniu rushed over and made a gesture with Liu Qingshan.

In the end, both of them were so tired that they lay on the snow, panting heavily, but it was the big bear who had watched the lively for a long time just now, slapped and slapped this, and slapped that.

The breakfast was settled here at Woodcut Leng. After they had eaten, it happened that Marshal Zhang also led a dozen strong men with shovels and picks.

"Qingshan, it's freezing, what are we going to plan for?" Zhang Dashuai asked with a dog-skin hat on his bald head.

In previous years, in this month, as soon as the snow fell, it was time for the cat Donger.

But now, they are basically not idle, and the various labor groups in the cooperative have a lot of work every day.

"Dig a few big trees and plant them in the wild vegetable factory." Liu Qingshan planned and moved a few beautiful pine trees to the gate of the wild vegetable factory.

In the late autumn, some small trees have been moved over, and they are basically little beauties with the thickness of their fists.

But for big trees, after transplanting, the survival rate is very low, so I didn't dare to do it at that time, so I just waited for winter.

"They are all planted in spring and autumn, but I have never heard of planting trees in winter." Everyone also felt fresh.

Liu Qingshan explained to them: "We are moving a big tree, and it must be done at this time. The tree is in a dormant period in winter, and the water and nutrients in the body are not easy to lose."

Everyone also nodded their heads. A few years ago, when winter came, they would also join the logging team organized by the forest farm to spend some pocket money, and they all understood this truth.

When they fell trees here,

The best season is winter, when the trees are restrained and the wood is the hardest.

Liu Qingshan continued: "When we are digging, we should bring a little more soil with old roots. When the next spring comes, the trees will wake up and they will be able to take root again."

There is also a saying in the countryside that when transplanting something, it is best to bring some soil from the original place, this is called old root soil, so as to avoid the soil and water after transplanting.

"Then let's do it, it's this winter, it's a little hard to plan." Zhang Dashuai waved his hand and all set off with Liu Qingshan.

"It's hard work everyone, but there's nothing we can do. Now, when it's freezing, we can bring a large pile of frozen soil." Liu Qingshan led the way. It is really not an easy task to transplant decades-old trees.

When passing by Xianrendong, Liu Qingshan shouted a few times.

The mountains were covered by heavy snow, and the fourth and fifth children could not communicate with the monkey group on time, so they entrusted the eldest brother to bring half a bag of rice grains to the monkey group.

After all, in this big winter, it is not easy for the monkeys to find food.

After shouting twice, there was no movement in the fairy cave. The dumb grandfather next to him smiled and gestured twice. Only then did Liu Qingshan understand:

"Moved away, where did they all move?"

"Of course the monkey moved to Huaguo Mountain. Let's go into the cave and see if there is any monkey wine." Zhang Dashuai was also a big wine bag, so he wanted to steal the wine.

As soon as Liu Qingshan saw it, he stopped him quickly, and then saw the master gesture a few more times.

Seeing Master's gesture of taking a bath, Liu Qingshan was immediately dumbfounded:

"Master, is it true or false, monkeys still like winter swimming?"

Winter swimming is also a major feature of their place. Thieves are exciting, but only a few people dare to try it. Are monkeys also looking for excitement?

The dumb grandfather couldn't explain this question, but Liu Qingshan had some guesses, and he felt it was necessary to confirm it in a few days.

Talking and laughing along the way, we soon reached the hillside with beautiful pines, which is not too far from the foot of the mountain.

Most of the oak trees have been cut down and turned into small saplings.

Even though the children in the village are small, it is quite remarkable that they can also plant trees into forests.

Occasionally, a few big trees grow among the small saplings, just like standing out from the crowd. These are relatively precious tree species that Liu Qingshan deliberately left at that time.

Among them, there are dozens of beautiful pine trees, big and small, standing upright in the white snow, still so elegant and beautiful.

"This tree is really beautiful!"

Zhang Dashuai couldn't help but praise, and then asked: "Qingshan, won't you move to death?"

Even he felt that it would be a pity if he was moved to death, which shows the charm of Meirenpine.

"It's fine." Liu Qingshan chose two not-so-small beauty pines, both with a diameter of about thirty centimeters at breast height.

As for the thicker ones, there is no machinery, it is all manual, they will definitely not be able to get it.

Around the big tree, a large circle of one and a half meters is drawn, which is what needs to be reserved, and then everyone starts to work.

First use a shovel to clean up the snow and leaves on the surface, and then start planing with a pick.

The ground was frozen solid, and the iron pick fell on it, and it was a small pit.

A few pickaxes in the same spot in a row can adze a hard clod.

The big iron pick was about to be held high above the head, and after several dozen strokes, both arms became sore.

At this time, you can see who is more powerful, and others have changed several times. Liu Qingshan and Li Tieniu are still easily swinging the big iron pick.

As the dirt pit continued to deepen, it slowly touched the root of the tree and cut it directly with an axe.

It took a full morning to completely dig out these two big trees.

A large tree with a length of more than ten meters has a large lump of soil underneath, and its roots are also frozen in the soil. This is the key to surviving in the spring of the coming year.

If it only carried a part of the roots, without this lump, it would definitely not be able to live by then.

This morning, everyone was exhausted and hungry.

Back at the woodcut, I had lunch, fried oil cakes, boiled sauerkraut soup, and a piece of pork belly that I killed a few days ago, which was served by the dumb grandpa.

To do this kind of heavy physical work, of course, you have to eat meat.

After eating and resting for a while, I went down the mountain to go home. In winter, the sky is short, and the sun goes down when I look for it. Obviously, it is impossible to transport the big tree up today.

The next day, Da Jiefang also dispatched, and drove to the foot of the mountain. Everyone took a few big sledges and took turns pulling them to the place where they worked yesterday.

Tie a rope to the root of the tree, put on a wooden pole, and work in groups of two. First, lift the big lump of soil at the root of the tree to the sledge.

"Master, you can quickly stand aside and call us. You can only partner with you unless you call Wu Dalang."

Seeing that Zhang Dashuai was still eager to try, Da Zhangluo kindly reminded him that he was too angry with Zhang Dashuai.

With everyone working together, this can be regarded as lifting the roots of the tree to the sledge, and then placing two sledges on the crown behind the tree, and slowly slipping down the hillside, finally reaching the front of the Great Liberation.

However, it is a bit difficult to get into the carriage. After a few tries, no one has that much effort.

"Little Senior Brother, let's come!"

Li Tie Niu also became ruthless, and together with Liu Qingshan, he carried the tree up to the part of the tree that was close to the root of the tree.

"Okay, good boy, you have the strength!"

Zhang Dashuai was also envious. He wanted to raise his slap and pat Li Tieniu on the shoulder, but unfortunately he couldn't reach him.

He didn't care, and continued: "Tie Niu, someday I have time to go to my uncle's house for dinner, my eldest girl is eighteen this year, and the dumplings she makes are delicious."

Um?

Everyone looked at Zhang Dashuai, and thought that this old man must have no good intentions. Could it be that he was looking at Li Tieniu?

In this way, two big trees were pulled to the gate of the wild vegetable factory. Two big pits have been dug here in advance. After clearing the snow inside, the trees can be planted in.

"Qingshan, did you really bring the tree down?" The head of the forestry station was also taken aback for a moment.

At the beginning, Liu Qingshan promised him to greet him when he moved the tree, and of course he had to keep his promise.

Everyone worked together to move the big dirt into the pit, then filled the surrounding with soil, and began to water according to Liu Qingshan's request, and finally the soil and ice were completely frozen into a large piece.

"Okay, so that there will be no air leakage. When Kaihua comes in the coming year, the water will seep in, and you will live!"

Liu Qingshan looked at these two slim beauty pines, and felt a sense of accomplishment. He felt that the grade of the wild vegetable factory had improved a lot at once.

The head of the forestry station pondered for a while, and also felt that if he transplanted it like this, he might really be able to live.

But after thinking about it again, he began to shake his head again: "Qingshan, your method is very good, but unfortunately it is too laborious, we can't do it, and we can't do it."

"That is to say, you Jiapigou, you have a lot of strong labor and a good heart, so you can get down from the mountain and replace it with someone else. You can only look at it. This method can't be promoted."

Liu Qingshan smiled and said, "It's alright. In a few years, if there are cranes and electric picks, it will save a lot of trouble."

"I hope so." The stationmaster went back to work with his hands behind his back. He felt that there was not much hope, so he would have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.

Others are eating lunch in the canteen of the wild vegetable factory. In December, the wild vegetable factory is basically in a state of shutdown, and will restart after the new year.

"Is there any movement on the opposite side?" Liu Qingshan looked at the sign of Jiajiakang opposite and asked the guard.

"It's probably going to be a yellow shop." The old guard replied cheerfully, with a bit of gloating.

Liu Qingshan also smiled and threw a cigarette for the old man. Just as he was about to enter the hospital, he saw a large car and a small car driving down the avenue.

When I got here, I turned north and drove to the gate of the Jiajiakang Wild Vegetable Factory. The car was screaming, and a large group of people came down.

A bad premonition suddenly emerged from Liu Qingshan's heart.
