In fact, what Fangyuan wants now is supplies, no matter what they are, of course, it would be better if they have tickets, but it is also the same as dry goods like this without tickets, because these things can be stored for a long time.
Even if he leaves in the future, the second sister can still eat. Of course, for a middle-aged woman, that is not enough.
"Comrade, can I change this?" Another woman came over with a basket and asked.
Fangyuan took a look and saw that there were mushrooms, fungus and pepper inside. He nodded and said, "You can change it, but yours is a bit missing, so I can only change it to a chicken."
"Okay, okay, I want a hen." The middle-aged woman nodded quickly.
"Well!" Fang Yuan took out a hen and handed it to her, then poured the contents of her basket into a sack.
At this time, Fangyuan didn’t have time to pick and choose, so they poured them all into one place. We’ll talk about it later when we get back!
"What can I exchange for this?" At this time, an old woman came over carrying a bamboo basket.
The bamboo basket was much larger than the basket. Fang Yuan lifted up a piece of cloth on it and looked at it, then asked: "Grandma, what do you want to change?"
"I want to change some money and then two chickens. Is that possible?"
Fangyuan took the bamboo basket from the old woman's hand, lifted it, and said, "I'll give you two chickens and four more yuan. What do you think?"
To be honest, this kind of dry food is not cheap. If you were in the imperial capital, a pound of dry goods would not be much cheaper than a pound of meat.
You must know that even during the Chinese New Year, each household only issues a small amount of dry goods coupons.
So Fangyuan didn't actually give anything more, or the price he gave was very reasonable, it was just based on the price in the Imperial Capital.
The main reason for this is that there is no shortage of chickens and rabbits in the surrounding area. If the chickens and rabbits in the static space storage room are taken out, the entire space may not be able to be filled.
So there is no need for him to set the price so high, especially when exchanging these dry goods.
Those who exchanged them were sold. Anyway, in about half an hour, Fangyuan exchanged or bought three large bags.
There is so much dry food, it is definitely enough to last for a long time.
At this time, there were more and more people in the small market.
There are those who buy and resell, those who come to buy things, and those who come to sell things.
At this time, Fangyuan also became lively.
Until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Fangyuan operated one bus in the morning and one in the afternoon every day. Whether it was tickets or other things, Fangyuan sold them for less.
Not only that, Fangyuan also sold some, which was enough to make up for the expenses of the past few days.
The bills and materials worth about two thousand yuan were enough for the second sister, so Fangyuan did not continue.
It's the Chinese New Year now, so it might be a little looser, but what if things get tighter after work? So Fangyuan can't cause any trouble.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the post and telecommunications office finally opened, and Fangyuan called home.
The eldest sister answered the call, but there was nothing we could do because he was originally calling the supply and marketing cooperative.
After knowing the situation at home from the eldest sister, Fangyuan has nothing to worry about.
The master is still at home and has not returned to the city, and judging from the eldest sister's tone, the master will continue to live there, which makes Fang Yuan feel relieved.
In this case, Fangyuan can finish this side before going back.
After making the call, Fangyuan rode his bicycle to the small market again. There were not that many people in the small market today, not even one-fifth of the previous days.
It seems that his guess was right! It was relatively loose during the Chinese New Year, but now that the Chinese New Year is over, it is probably a lot tighter, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many people.
Especially those people who engaged in scalping and reselling in the past, Fangyuan almost never saw them.
Yes! Most of the people in the small market now come to sell and buy things. To put it bluntly, they exchange things for things.
Of course, if you can't exchange, you can still trade. Seeing this, Fangyuan left immediately.
He didn't want to be recognized.
After leaving the small market, Fangyuan did not go back. Not only did she not go back, she also went to a small hotel and bought a room to stay.
Fangyuan had already told his second sister before he came out that he would be out for two or three days this time. As for what he was going out for, he didn't say.
Of course, before coming out, he filled up the water and prepared enough things for the second sister.
Besides, he was only out for three days, so there was no need to prepare anything, as long as he had enough water.
When they came to the room, Fangyuan closed the door and locked it.
Next, Fangyuan lay down on the bed and entered the space.
The reason why Fangyuan came out for a few days was to build something, something for digging wells.
Fangyuan had never been exposed to these, but he had seen others drilling wells, so he wanted to build a set of equipment for drilling wells.
Of course, it's a relatively simple one that uses manual labor. He wanted to build a machine. First, there was no machine, and second, he didn't know how to build one.
He had no choice but to use soil. Soon, he pulled out steel pipes one by one. The steel pipes were not very thick, only about three centimeters in diameter.
The reason why it is made so thin is because it will be lighter if it is thinner.
There is no way! You must know that this is a very deep attack, it takes a hundred meters.
In fact, the diameter of three centimeters is not that thin. One meter of such a pipe is one and a half kilograms.
Calculated based on one and a half kilograms, one hundred meters is one hundred and fifty kilograms. Even for adults, it is estimated that three or four people will be needed.
This is still talking about strong labor, and it is after eating a full meal. If a hungry person cannot stand firmly, you still expect him to be able to lift him up.
A total of 120 such pipes were made in a square circle. Each pipe was one meter long, with a turnbuckle about five centimeters long at each end.
So even excluding this, the pipe is still one meter long, one hundred and twenty pipes, which is one hundred and twenty meters. If there is a radius of one hundred meters, there is still no water.
After finishing the pipe, Fangyuan built a triangular bracket. This bracket was made of three five-meter-long thick steel pipes.
There is a pulley at the top, which is needed when digging a well.
After finishing these, Fangyuan made another solid drill bit. It is better to say it is an iron rod than a drill bit, and it has a round tip.
Of course, there is a turnbuckle at the other end so that it can be connected to those steel pipes.
After finishing these things, Fangyuan was very tired. After all, he had only seen this thing before, so he still had to try it when making it.
If it breaks, it will be troublesome. After all, it is not a whole, but connected section by section.
Therefore, even if it is Fangyuan, there is no guarantee that it will not break. In this case, it needs to be made stronger.
For this purpose, Fangyuan Guang spent two days conducting experiments in space. The combination of various metals finally allowed him to come up with a relatively hard alloy.
Conducting experiments in space cannot be too simple for Fangyuan, because everything is an idea.
The alloy finally produced, just a steel pipe, can support two tons of heavy impact.
Although it cannot be compared with the super alloys of later generations, in this era, this can definitely be regarded as one of the hardest alloys.
Moreover, during the experiment, Fangyuan also recorded it, and it seems that it can be handed over to the research institute for use in the future.
Originally he was supposed to be out for three days, but Fangyuan didn't go back until the fourth day.
Maybe he’s exhausted!
However, Fangyuan did not go back by bicycle this time, but drove a truck back.
A truck came to Zhaojiayu, which was definitely a first for this poor village.
Not to mention when you see who is driving the car.
Fangyuan couldn't help it! He could use his bicycle to carry those pipes back bit by bit, but what about the four- to five-meter-high frame!
Not to mention the bicycle, there was no way to get it back even with a jeep! So he could only use a truck.
Fangyuan drove the truck directly to the entrance of the two cave houses where he lived.
At this time, the whole village came out, and even some educated youth came running over.
When he saw Fangyuan getting out of the car, the old party secretary came up and asked: "Fangyuan, this truck is..."
"Old Party Secretary, I borrowed this from Lanzhou."
"From Lanzhou... or borrowed it?" The old party secretary looked at Fang Yuan in surprise.
Although he felt that Fangyuan was not an ordinary person, he never expected that Fangyuan was so extraordinary.
Even a truck can be borrowed. You must know that Fangyuan did not come from Lanzhou, but from the Imperial Capital.
"Yes, not only that, I also borrowed a set of well-drilling equipment to prepare a well in the village."
"What? You...you mean digging a well?" The old party secretary looked at Fang Yuan in surprise.
If he was surprised just now, he was shocked now. He never thought that Fangyuan had been out for the past few days to dig a well for the village.
If this is the case, then Zhao Jiayu will become famous, and he will become famous.
"Yes, you see, the equipment is in the car, but some people may be needed." Fang Yuan scratched his head and said.
"Fang Yuan, if you really want to build a well in the village, don't talk about people. I will agree to whatever you need."
Hearing what the old party secretary said, Fangyuan smiled and said, "Old party secretary, I don't need anything, I just need a few people. Of course, it's best if they are all strong laborers."
"No problem. How about I call everyone here and you can pick whatever you want?"
"That's a good feeling!"
The old party secretary was really vigorous and resolute. In less than ten minutes, he summoned all the strong laborers in the village together.
But when he saw these so-called strong laborers, Fangyuan frowned. These were also called strong laborers, and they were all sallow and thin.
Except for the old party secretary's son Shengli, who is a little better, the others really can't be called strong laborers.
"Fang Yuan, what's wrong?" Seeing Fan Yuan frowning, the old branch secretary asked.
"Old party secretary, I may need someone who is better at cooking."
"No problem. In this case, my daughter-in-law is good at cooking. I'll let her cook for you."
"Okay, here's my sister." ...
PS: Please give me a monthly ticket, thank you! Mmmah!
