Shanwa Small Rich Farmers
Chapter 78: Big Millstone
"Thinking about blinding you!" The director of the teacher looked at the lion with a big mouth and said with a smile: "Don't say that this thing is not worth a thousand yuan, even if it is worth a thousand yuan, I won't buy it. Three hundred, if you don’t sell it, I’ll go directly to Dawangzhuang and Litang Village, and I can buy a stone mill for a hundred yuan! I can find someone to transport the remaining two hundred to my home, believe it or not!”
As soon as Wen Xu entered the village office and arrived at Shi Shangzhen's office, he saw the little girl sitting behind the desk face to face with the fourth brother Wen Shijie, who seemed quite busy.
The office environment of the village office in Wenjia Village is really average, let me put it this way: crude!
The white ash painted on the old brick wall of more than ten years is a little yellow. There are a dozen pennants of various sizes hanging on the wall on the left hand side as soon as you enter the door. What kind of civilized unit, what is the fastest progress, etc., anyway, a useful one. No, it's all fake! A pennant of the spiritual level.
There are two old-fashioned desks facing each other against the wall. The paint on the desks is also that old black-red color, which is more earthy and earthy. White putty can still be seen on the corners of the desks. There are two sides of glass on it, and some photos are sandwiched in the glass. In short, it has a sense of the times.
There is a wooden two-meter-long chair on the other wall of the office. This guy probably has never seen many people under the age of 20. It is a thing made of long wooden strips. If you sit for a long time in summer , There is a streak of marks directly on the thigh. The only thing that could be sold in the office were the four filing cabinets facing the door, metal and dusty things.
Sitting in such a dilapidated office, Shi Shangzhen actually yelled at Wen Xu, asking Wen Xu for a thousand yuan for a broken plate!
"Why isn't such a big thing worth a thousand dollars!" Shi Shang said so truthfully, but he still looked at Wen Shijie with his eyes empty as he said it.
Wen Shijie smiled and shook his head.
"Eight hundred! It can't be lowered anymore, and I can't explain it to the village committee!" Shi Shangzhen saw it and dropped another three hundred yuan.
Wen Xu doesn't like this, it seems that there is something about the village committee! I have money but I can't be slaughtered like a pig by others. Although Shi Shang really thinks about the village and looks like a qualified village head in this matter, the price is too outrageous.
"Forget it, you can keep it for yourself, I'd better go to another village to buy it!" Wen Xu waved his hand and walked out of the office.
Seeing Wen Xu walk out of the door, Shi Shangzhen immediately asked Wen Shijie: "Isn't such a big stone worth a thousand dollars?"
"Director, that's not marble, millstone, do you know what a mill is for? It used to be used for flour grinding, but who uses it now? There are machines that are all used, and there are still people who want small mills. Such a big guy Whoever wants it, it will take up space!" Wen Shijie said.
Shi Shang really thought about it, if grinding this thing can only do this, it is really useless now, so he asked: "Is there any other villages?"
"I used to have this thing, but I really don't know it now, but it's really not difficult to find it!" Wen Shijie said.
Hearing what Wen Shijie said, Shi Shangzhen ran out again with a smile on his face: "Wen Xu! Can we talk about the price again? Why are you leaving!"
Wen Xu was amused by her: "Sell it for three hundred or not, and if I don't sell it, I'll leave. What's there to talk about? No one wants two stone mills that only take up space, and if you want a shelf or a pole, don't you want a pole?" Pole, how do you want me to talk about it!"
"Okay, okay, three hundred is three hundred, pay the money to accountant Wen, and then ask him to issue a receipt for you to get it!" Shi Shangzhen didn't talk about it now, and directly handed over the useless assets in the village Sold to Wen Xu.
Wen Xu had no choice but to turn back again, muttering as she walked: so much food for nothing, it's too slamming!
"What are you talking about?" I heard Wen Xu muttering, but I didn't hear what Wen Xu said clearly, but Shi Shang is really not stupid, even if he guesses, he can guess that it is not a good thing.
So asked.
"It's nothing! The weather is so nice today!" Wen Xu said, walking sideways in front of Shi Shangzhen, and arrived at Si Ge's table, took out 300 yuan from his pocket and put it on the table.
Wen Shijie opened the drawer, took out the receipt book and gave Wen Xu a receipt of 300 yuan, tore it off with a snap, and put the 300 yuan into his drawer with a smile.
"How are you living these days? You are so happy to receive three hundred yuan!" Wen Xu asked while looking at the fourth brother and Shi Shangzhen while holding the receipt.
Wen Shijie said: "There is not much money in the village, and it almost depends on the relief from the village. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat!"
"Is the money paid for renting the land used up so soon?" Wen Xu asked.
"Isn't it all put into the bridge repair fund?" Shi Shangzhen said, "It's still a long way off. Now I hope that our tea trees will gain a reputation as soon as possible, and we can make a contribution to the tea tree." The bank has borrowed money, and once a few bridges are built, the travel in our village will be greatly facilitated... ".
"Stop, I'm here to move the mill, I'm not here to listen to you talking about this." Wen Xin smiled and slipped out of the door when she heard that this man was about to look forward to her blueprint again.
When I arrived at the office next to me, before I could speak to the village committee member, he stood up with a smile: "Uncle Xu, come with me to get the mill." He stood up with the key in his hand.
Just like that, Wen Xu called a few nephews to get the millstone out of the warehouse of the village office, and along the way, found a matching livestock rack. Although it was dilapidated, it could still be used after repairing it.
The big stone mill is not small. The diameter of the grinding disc is about 80 centimeters, and it is more than 30 centimeters thick. The base is even bigger, measuring 120 centimeters, and the head is 15 centimeters thick. Now this kind of big stone mill is hard to find. What's even more rare is that the stone mill stripes are clear enough, and it can be aroused by installing the necessary wooden components. Of course, it is impossible for people to deal with this guy for a long time, and even if it is possible, there is no warmth. The mood treats itself like an animal, and it is necessary to buy an animal.
After the hard mill was made, it was necessary to rely on a tricycle to get home. A group of people worked together to roll the stone mill onto the tricycle, and transported it to the entrance of the warm courtyard twice.
"Uncle, if you use livestock, I advise you not to put the millstone in the yard, it's smelly!" Wen Guangsheng said to Wen Xu while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Afraid of Wen Xu's overthinking, Wen Guangsheng quickly explained: "Uncle, I'm not afraid of the effort, I'm afraid that you are not used to the smell of livestock in the yard!"
"Well, that makes sense!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Xu raised a finger, thinking that what he said made sense. Is there an animal grinding mill in my yard? The animal is not a person, so it naturally pulls when it wants to pull, and scatter when it wants to? It would be a strange thing if the smell in this courtyard can be refreshed after a long time!
Since it can't be placed in the yard, Wen Xu has to figure out where to put such a big millstone.
"Uncle, do you think this will work? Let's put the millstone over there." Wen Guangping stretched out his finger and passed the small wasteland of the small stone bridge: "The terrain over there is lower, no matter what kind of wind blows, the smell will not reach you If you put the millstone here and you buy some bricks, we will build you a simple small mill. If you are willing to spend money, our three brothers can give you the reinforced concrete Get it out".
Wen Xu felt that what the elder nephew said was right, that it would be more appropriate to place the millstone there, so he nodded and said, "Alright, let's transport these things there first, and I'll go to the brick and tile yard in town tomorrow to drag the bricks. By the way, I have to go to the town to ask Mr. Liu to come over and tidy up the things on the millstone."
The three elder brothers nodded after hearing Wen Xu's words and said: "Yes, don't look at this simple thing. A few wooden sticks are pinned together, one end is connected to the grinder and the other end is put on the back of the animal. If someone who doesn't know how to do it can give the animal Tired to death, it is estimated that only the third master Liu in the town can do this now. There were three famous masters before, and Mr. Xu and the others are gone now."
"In the future, I think there will be fewer and fewer people who can play with these things! If Mr. Liu's family hadn't changed their career to play with small stone mills, they probably wouldn't be doing this by now."
These words are a bit sad. Many old jobs in rural areas have lost their inheritance due to the development of the times and technological progress. For example, with tractors, buffaloes and cattle are useless. The number of them gradually decreased, and it was better in the mountains, but in the plains outside, who still raises those things now. Tractors are powerful, and they don't need to be taken care of, which is much easier to use than livestock.
Right now, Wen Xu is desperately relying on the space, thinking that it will be fine to get an animal to grind his white flour or something. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is completely full of food, and you still use a millstone to grind a bag of large white noodles for one or two dollars. If it is not sick, what is it?
"Okay, don't be sad, get these two guys over there, and tomorrow I will pull some bricks and you three can help me build a proper mill. How about the wages at one hundred and fifty a day? I will pay for the same eat," Wen Xu said.
"There is not much work, how can we collect money!"
"That's it, don't talk about it, I get paid for my work, and I'm not a rich landlord!"
When the three of them heard this, they immediately nodded and agreed, "Okay, do as you say!".
Just like that, the three of Wen Guangsheng took the millstone to the open space and placed it first.
The millstone was transported back, and Wen Xu returned to her yard. When she opened the door, she saw that the scum came back at some point, and almost stuck his head into the food bowl, chewing the food in the bowl. It's not the first time I've seen a scum with such a warm personality.
Let's put it this way, this guy has become the inspector of the whole village as soon as it's time to eat. He went through almost every house to find out what other people's houses eat, and then he went back to the courtyard unwillingly, eating The 'leftovers' from the last meal in the basin.
But in Wen Xu's view, the 'disease' of the scum has almost been cured!
