The meal lasted for more than an hour in the afternoon, and it was past 5 o'clock when I finished eating.

Li Wen handed the money and tickets to the village and pushed the production team's old bicycles back.

Along the way, the young people in the village were envious when they saw Li Wen pushing the bicycle, even though it was old.

"Wow, third brother, you have a bicycle."

Li Yong and Li Tao, who were playing at the door, saw Li Wen pushing the bicycle. They were so excited that they led a group of children and kept touching it.

"Brother, can I ride it?" Li Tao looked at the bicycle that was as tall as him and said longingly.

"Get out of here, you can't even hold up a bicycle, why are you still riding it? What if it breaks?" the second uncle came out of the door and cursed.

"Our family finally has something decent to do," the second uncle Li Dezhong patted the back seat of his bicycle and said with a smile.

"Let's go, let me carry it in," said the second uncle, carrying the bicycle in from outside the threshold.

"Brother, Awen pushed the production team's bicycle back. Look, it's super straight." The second uncle patted the bicycle seat and said excitedly.

For a moment, the whole family came forward to watch.

In the past, this bicycle could only be used by the production team leader and the old branch secretary, and no one else in the village would let it go. Of course, anyone with a wife could borrow it.

Every time they went to the commune or the county after a meeting and came back, the party secretary and the production team leader would wipe the car clean and hang it up.

So even though this bike has been used for several years and has been improved with quality improvements, it is still 70% to 80% new.

“It’s great that our family finally has a bicycle!”

The second aunt touched the back seat of the car and thought to herself, it would be so cool to take this bicycle to her parents' house.

The bicycles of this era are indeed on the same level as the Daben and Baolu of later generations. Anyone who can ride a bicycle is definitely the most handsome boy in the village.

"Yes, with this bicycle, it is much easier for the boys in our family to talk about getting married." Wang Chunmei looked at this Phoenix brand bicycle and was also very happy.

"It's a pity that I gave the new one to the village, otherwise it would have been better," Li Quan sighed at the side.

"You know what the heck, Awen did this move really well." The second uncle said, lifting Li Quan's butt.

"Well, Awen's change today is really great," his father Li Deyou also smiled and nodded.

"It doesn't matter whether it's new or old, as long as it's a bicycle, we'll make a profit," Li Wen said with a smile.

"Yes, as long as it is a bicycle, our family will make money," everyone said happily.

It was still an hour before dark, and the young and old men at home began to learn to ride bicycles in the yard. You helped me ride, and they had a great time.

"It's not difficult to learn how to ride a bicycle. You can learn it in a while," Li Quan said excitedly while sitting at the dinner table in the evening.

"Dad is practicing more at home these days and will take you to school in a few days," the second uncle said with a smile as he touched the heads of his two twin sons.

"Oh, let's go to school by bicycle," the little guys said happily, jumping around in the yard.

"Okay, calm down and go to bed as soon as possible after eating," the second aunt scolded softly while holding the rice tray and looking at her son playing in the yard.

After dinner, everyone who had been excited all afternoon went back to their rooms to rest.

Li Wen bolted the door and returned to space.

The corn was ripe again in the space. Li Wen chopped the straw into silage with a hatchet and stored it in a large vat. Then he moved out the hand-cranked corn thresher left by the landlord and started threshing the corn.

In half an hour, half a sack of corn kernels had been threshed. Li Wen had saved a bag of corn kernels and a bag of wheat over the past few months.

Li Wen looked at his gains in the past few months and felt full of accomplishment.

"That's right, that's right. It's a good harvest day again. I'll go to the county flour mill in a few days to grind all these into powder," Li Wen smiled and patted the sack.

I also picked all the ripe watermelons and large pumpkins in the yard and put them in the stable area of ​​the warehouse.

There are already dozens of large pumpkins stacked on the shelves, as well as a lot of watermelons. Li Wen is planning to take action when he goes to the county to grind flour in a few days.

Arriving at the front room, Li Wen carried a basket and collected all today's eggs and duck eggs.

The chickens he bought later have grown up and started laying eggs in the past two days. Li Wen has recently picked up hundreds of kilograms of eggs and stacked them in the warehouse.

I came to the second floor and started watering the fruits and vegetables on the platform with a water pipe, and then rinsed the goat pen.

The piggies in the hallway in the backyard were quite smart. They pooped in a corner. Li Wen shoveled the poop into the sewer and flushed it with water.

Strangely enough, this warehouse space is very magical.

Not to mention that water and electricity are unlimited, and sewers can be flushed at will. The land in the garden is like the soil in myths and legends, which can increase the growth rate of crops. The warehouse space also functions as a storage space, and time and space seem to have stopped.

Li Wen didn't understand, and he didn't bother to think about it anymore. Just let everything happen. It can't turn modern life into a fantasy world. ωωw..net

After settling everything in the space, Li Wen returned to the room and began to write a praise article for the acquisition station.

Until midnight, an article of more than 2,000 words, "The Situation Between Workers and Peasants, Fish and Water" was successfully completed.

When Li Wen woke up in the morning, he saw that his family had all gotten up extra early today.

The adults were practicing riding bicycles in the yard, while the children were running beside them, making playful sounds from time to time.

"Awen is up!" The second uncle took Li Tao around on his bicycle in the yard and stopped in front of Li Wen.

"Second uncle, your skills are good now. You can already lead people, and you can stop when you ask. You are an experienced driver," Li Wen smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay!"

"By the way, Awen, do you want to use the car today? If not, my second uncle will ride away. Your aunt said that she wants to go back to her parents' house. Riding a bicycle is faster, so I will give your aunt a ride," Li Dezhong said with a smile.

"I don't have to, second uncle, you can just ride," Li Wen said with a smile and waved his hand.

After breakfast, Li Wen wandered out of the door!

"Awen, what are you doing in Taoyuan? Do you want to eat peaches? There were a lot of unwanted peaches at the village committee yesterday's purchase station. You can go get them yourself," Uncle Jiu Li Decai, who was working in Taoyuan, said with a smile.

"Uncle Junli gave me a basket yesterday. No need, I just want to see if there are any peaches left in the peach orchard," Li Wen said with a smile.

"Also, how come there aren't any? The ones sold yesterday were all good ones, of average quality, and small ones. I didn't let anyone pick them. They were left hanging on the tree to grow for a few days," Li Decai said with a smile.

"Uncle Jiu, how many more are there?" Li Wen walked around the field and saw a few peaches hanging sporadically on some trees, and asked with a smile.

"There are always eight thousand catties, right? What's wrong? You asked me yesterday what happened to these bad peaches." Li Decai asked in confusion.

"Canned food, I want to use these average-quality peaches to make canned food," Li Wen said.

"What! Our peaches can be canned, is it true?" Li Decai said in shock.

"Why not? When our peaches are sold, most of the first-grade products are eaten by retail, and the second-grade products must be sold to factories and canned," Li Wen said calmly.

"It's really possible, but we don't know how to do it?" Li Decai said in surprise.

"Uncle, canning is very easy. Since there are so many peaches of average quality, we can make cans. Let's go to the village committee to find my fourth master and the others," Li Wen said with a smile.

"Zhong, since you are so confident, I will accompany you," Li Decai said, putting down the tools in his hands.

"Lao Jiu, why are you and Awen coming to the village committee together?" The old party secretary who was reading the newspaper looked up at the two and asked.

"Fourth Grandpa, it's like this," Li Wen told the old party secretary his plan.

After listening to Li Wen's explanation, Li Juncai lowered his head and thought for a while.

"Decai, go and call all the cadres of the village committee. Let's listen together. I think what Awen said should be tried." Li Juncai looked up at Li Decai and said.

After a while, several cadres from the village committee came to the office, and Li Wen told everyone his thoughts.

"I agree, you can give it a try! Awen is a smart kid, so he won't sell the remaining peaches. In the end, he will share them with the members. If we succeed, our village will sell peaches in the future. We will sell canned food directly. The village office

Factory," Li Junli said excitedly after hearing this.

Everyone nodded after hearing what Li Junli said.

"Awen, do you need any materials? You write a list to the village and I will go to the commune to apply?" Li Junli looked at Li Wen with eyes full of passion.

Li Wen knew that the production captain was a real person, and he was very excited.

"Fourth Grandpa, uncles and aunts, I know that everyone agrees that I can do canning, and I will have to bear a certain responsibility. But I will tell you a method. The success rate will be greatly improved, and everyone in the village will agree to try it. Li Wen stood up and laughed

road.

"The village first provides a few glass bottles and some rock sugar. Let's try to make a few cans first. This is quick and can be eaten tomorrow. Then we will let the results speak for themselves, which will be more intuitive," Li Wen confidently said.

"If that's the case, it would be better," everyone agreed.

"In this case, I will go to the village supply and marketing store to buy materials. Sister-in-law, you can help Awen. Let's do it now," Li Junli also worked vigorously and resolutely.

"First select a harder peach, scrape off the skin. Then soak it in salt water for five or six minutes. Don't soak it for too long, otherwise the sweetness of the fruit will be lost."

At this time, Li Wen was instructing the auntie how to make canned food in the village canteen.

"I bought it, twenty bottles, three pounds of rock sugar, Awen, you can take care of it," Li Junli said as he hurried into the village canteen.

"Okay, boil water to wash and disinfect these bottles," Li Wen directed several people to start making them.

"Look, take out the peaches that have been soaked for a few minutes and bottle them, then put rock sugar on top, pour in cold water, and finally put the lid on." Li Wen instructed.

"Is this the end?" Li Junli and his aunt Gao Aiqin asked.

"Not yet! Now add cold water to the pot, put the cans in and start boiling. After the water boils, lower the heat and cook for ten to fifteen minutes.

After a long wait, the time has finally come.

"It's time. Take it out, screw on the lid and put it upside down. When it cools down, it will be canned," Li Wen said with a smile as he looked at the results of several people.
Chapter completed!
