Chapter 191 Wheat Harvest Day 2
Chapter 191 Wheat Harvest Day 2
Bai Baoshan left early in the morning, and Qiao Yun asked her to go to school by herself.
It was not yet 6 o'clock when we arrived. It seemed... I was late and I didn't know when we got up.
The threshers, harvesters, and combine harvesters are all in motion.
Those who could come from the steel rolling mill also rushed over one after another. By 7 o'clock, there were 150 people there. Mainly because today was Monday, there were many things to deal with, so some small chores were enough.
Breakfast time at 8 o'clock.
Large noodles with minced meat in sour soup, a big bowl per person.
Some can have another half bowl.
After eating, he wiped his mouth, wiped his face with a towel, and ran to the field without even taking a break.
Nowadays, farmers take their crops seriously, regardless of whether they belong to them or not.
At half past eight, another school organized students to pick wheat.
As soon as Bai Baoshan started talking, I was like... why is Yan Bugui among them?
It seems that students from Hongxing Primary School have also come, and there are several others who came at the same time, making a total team of 270 people.
Yes, it’s embarrassing enough that the wheat in my factory didn’t arrive yesterday. If it doesn’t arrive today, I can only wait until autumn to harvest the corn.
Most of the children who came today are children of factory workers.
Everyone brought their own baskets and talked to the teacher who led the team. They found out that the wheat on this side of the river had been harvested. In one morning, they had all been pulled out, leaving only bare wheat fields.
Everyone lined up, picked up the trash over there, and then came back, and that was almost it. The other half had already been picked up yesterday.
Bai Baoshan went to see it and found it very clean.
When we got to the other side, this side was handed over to the teachers in charge from several schools to prevent the children from getting too tired or getting heatstroke.
He also asked the kitchen to push a cart with two buckets of mung bean and sour plum soup on it.
Not long after Bai Baoshan left, Yan Bugui came over and scooped a bowl of mung beans.
The staff in the soup kitchen were all grinning at this scene. Is this still a teacher?
Yan Bugui drank two bowls straight away, then, under the watchful eyes of the kitchen staff, he went to pick up wheat while touching his mouth.
But he just followed the students and walked around with his hands behind his back, without even bending down for a long time.
Bai Baoshan ran around and found that there were about 1650 acres of land here.
We harvested more than 800 acres yesterday, and half is left.
Manual threshing and combine harvesting are carried out simultaneously.
They got up at 5 o'clock in the morning and started working.
The remaining 600 acres are harvested by combine harvester and 200 acres are harvested manually.
It should be easy.
It takes about 12 to 14 hours.
Excluding the time needed for a break at noon, the harvest was almost finished by dark.
The combine harvester doesn't have to come tomorrow.
However, after unloading the harvester, the tractor still has to plow the land.
It doesn't need to be too deep, just scrape out the wheat roots.
Then the corn planter came on stage.
This will take about another two days.
The harvest was very intense, and it happened to be the time for wheat to be harvested in other places, so these tractors had to continue to go to other places.
All Bai Baoshan could say was that he had worked hard.
With the purchase order in hand, I asked someone to go to the supply and marketing cooperative and directly order 20 harvests.
What is produced in the capital is not what is produced in other places. The capital only recognizes the harvest produced in the capital, and does not know about other places.
This cigarette is available in every city, and each major cigarette factory has its own brand of Fengshou cigarette.
The cigarettes are not expensive, they are considered mid-range, 1 cents a box, 9 yuan a carton, 1 cartons is 9 yuan.
Fengshou brand cigarettes from Beijing Cigarette Factory
It was not expensive. Bai Baoshan asked Director Huang to approve a note, and Deputy Director Li stamped and signed it. Bai Baoshan didn't even have to buy it himself. The director's secretary just ran away with the note.
But when he came back, there were several more boxes of cigarettes in his bag.
8 boxes of Peony, 4 Daqianmen, and even Fengshou, there are two more.
After Bai Baoshan made some calculations, he knew how to distribute the cigarettes.
He took the bag and went to the combine harvester first. He got on the car. There were two masters, each with two boxes of peonies. When their eyes lit up, Bai Baoshan jumped out of the car.
Went to another one.
They were both very happy.
You can still see the motivation to work of those who have received benefits and those who have not.
Give 20 harvester masters two boxes of Daqianmen each, and the rest are good harvests.
Farmer brothers, one box each.
Although this cigarette only costs 1 cents, many people are reluctant to buy it.
They are all 9-point production, or economic cigarettes, and some smoke sunflowers.
With a cigarette in hand, the speed became noticeably faster.
There are also women who think it is too monotonous and start singing soprano. Their singing is definitely much better than those of current internet celebrities.
I took a few photos with my camera.
I looked at my watch. It was 11:40.
After waiting for a few minutes, someone came and told everyone to rest, pack up and prepare for lunch.
Just like yesterday, the women at the corner ran over first.
The man who wanted to take a shower ran away helplessly.
Dirty jokes are just for show, nothing serious, but if they are too dirty, no one can bear the consequences these days.
Today's meal was the same as yesterday's, large slices of meat, cabbage, stewed vermicelli, steamed buns, and rice. Some people who thought the food would change were suddenly happy.
I thought it was good enough to have meat yesterday, but I didn’t expect there would still be meat today.
Start queuing up as well.
As for the fact that Yan Bugui disliked the small size of the student's bowl and insisted on changing it for a bigger one, it was just a small episode and it's better not to talk about it.
Apart from this incident, the morning was a complete success.
Several old farmers calculated that if they started working after lunch in the afternoon, they would definitely finish before 6 o'clock.
Several old village heads discussed it together and said, what's the point of taking a rest? We haven't been home for two days. Who wouldn't miss home?
Although I wasn't very tired these two days, I still managed to replenish some energy.
The body has been stretched now, so I should be able to handle the sickle.
Every village also prepared pigs for this day.
I can't bear it without meat.
Several village chiefs discussed it and found Bai Baoshan to tell him the result.
A few more harvester drivers were called in.
The master of the combine harvester had nothing to say, just do it and get it done. The master of the harvester had nothing to say either, too, just do it and get it done. The sooner it’s done, the sooner it’s over.
All the main players had nothing to say, so it was settled. After dinner, we rested until 1 o'clock and then started working.
The villagers in each village will speak about it through their village heads and village representatives.
No opinions at all.
The villagers, who had just been chewing slowly and carelessly, immediately began to show off and just stuffed the food into their stomachs.
The women did not stop working. They put on their straw hats and went to the threshing floor. They turned on the electricity and the threshers started to rumble.
Well, since the women are so active, the men cannot fall behind. Everyone drank a bowl of mung bean soup, put on their hats, and rushed into the wheat field.
However, the students needed to rest, so Bai Baoshan asked them to start after 3 o'clock.
The sun was too hot at this time.
Since there were people watching here, Bai Baoshan certainly wouldn't stay here stupidly. He went back to the office, washed his face, pulled out the small bed and took a nap.
