Transmigrating to an era, Zhou Ziwen became an educated youth sent to the countryside.
Possessing an AFK panel, he was already set to lie flat and win before even starting.
So what if h...
Zhou Ziwen, Li Lei and Uncle Liang soon arrived at the pig farm warehouse.
There was a faint smell in the warehouse, and the space seemed spacious but a little dim.
Zhou Ziwen walked with Uncle Liang Wu to the center of the warehouse and pointed to an empty area. "Uncle Wu, this is where we plan to place the incubation beds. We're initially planning to build ten. Do you think this space is enough?"
In fact, there is no need to use so many incubation beds. Zhou Ziwen did this to be prepared for any eventuality.
After all, he has set up the shelves for the chicken farm now, and these things can be used when the chicken farm expands in the future.
Uncle Liang looked around carefully, then asked, "Ziwen, what does the incubation bed you want look like? Tell me."
"The hatching bed is actually very simple. First of all, the size. I want a bed that is two meters long, one and a half meters wide, and about eighty centimeters high. This size ensures that a sufficient number of eggs can be placed in it, while also being easy for us to operate and manage."
Uncle Liang nodded as he listened. He took out a tape measure from his tool bag and marked the dimensions on the ground, muttering, "Two meters long, one and a half meters wide, and eighty centimeters high."
Zhou Ziwen continued, "The bed frame needs to be made of sturdy wood. After all, our incubation beds will be used for many years. Ideally, we'll use the old elm trees that were felled in the village last winter. This type of wood is hard and won't deform easily."
"No problem." Uncle Liang nodded.
"The gap under the bed can be a little bigger. We'll put an iron plate on top and heat it with a kerosene lamp..."
Zhou Ziwen explained his request in detail.
After listening to Zhou Ziwen's explanation, Uncle Liang Wu already had a rough plan in mind. He nodded confidently, "Ziwen, don't worry. I will make the incubation bed according to your requirements."
In fact, Zhou Ziwen’s requirements are very simple, as long as it is strong and durable.
This kind of small job is even easier for Uncle Liang.
Zhou Ziwen hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Wu. If you have any questions during the production process, please feel free to let us know."
"Haha, I'm also a member of the production team. If you have any problems, come to me."
Uncle Liang said with a smile.
Although he did not work in the production team, he would pay money every year to make up for the work points.
Only in this way can he get a share of food after the autumn harvest.
However, with his skills, he could earn more money by taking on jobs at home.
After Uncle Liang left, Zhou Ziwen returned to the warehouse next door to continue tinkering with the machine.
In fact, he has almost finished repairing these machines.
He repaired everything that could be repaired, and those that could not be repaired were either due to defective parts or technical issues.
His maintenance skills are only at level six now.
Although this level is already very high in real life, he can repair most things.
But tractors and crushers are not ordinary things.
The crusher is easy to deal with. It is now in the final stage. As long as the motor inside is modified, it can be completely repaired.
The key is the tractor. It is not easy to repair. There are many parts inside it, and various key components are seriously damaged. It cannot be repaired in a short time.
While Zhou Ziwen was fiddling with the machine, some villagers who were idle at home heard the notice and took action.
These people are basically older aunts, uncles and grandpas.
Due to various problems, they did not participate in the production team's work.
Some have to help take care of the children at home, some are sick and unable to work, and some are too old to do farm work.
When they heard the notice, they packed the chicken and duck eggs in their homes and sent them to the pig farm for hatching.
As they walked, they chatted. "I heard that this chicken farm was proposed by Zhou Zhiqing. He's really capable. His previous mushroom cultivation base and pig farm were both successful."
The neighbor nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I hope the chicken farm goes well this time. Maybe we can even share some eggs."
When they arrived at the pig farm, Li Lei led the members out and maintained order while receiving eggs.
Hearing the noisy sounds outside, Zhou Ziwen also put down his tools and came out to watch the fun.
Zhou Ziwen walked out of the warehouse and saw the villagers lining up and handing over chicken and duck eggs to Li Lei and other members in an orderly manner. He was very happy.
"Brother Li, what's the situation?" Zhou Ziwen walked up and asked.
Li Lei smiled and replied, "Ziwen, the reception is going smoothly. Everyone is very active and the number of eggs they brought is even greater than we expected."
Zhou Ziwen looked at the baskets and bags full of eggs and nodded with satisfaction.
He turned to the villagers and said, "Dear uncles and aunts, thank you for your hard work. We will incubate these eggs well. When the chicks hatch and the chicken farm develops, everyone will benefit."
The villagers responded one after another, their faces filled with expectant smiles. One woman said with a smile, "Ziwen, we all trust you. We are confident that you will do your job well. We will definitely succeed in running this chicken farm."
By now, everyone knows that it was Zhou Ziwen who proposed to set up this chicken farm.
If it were someone else, everyone might still worry about whether it could be done.
But when it comes to Zhou Ziwen, they are not worried at all.
In their hearts, Zhou Ziwen has been deified.
Not only is he handsome, but he is also very outstanding. Not only does he have rich knowledge and skills, but he is also dedicated to working for the welfare of the villagers and improving their living standards.
With all the achievements Zhou Ziwen has made, if he were in a more feudal place, he might be worshipped one day.
After listening to Zhou Ziwen's words, the villagers expressed their support and expectations.
Li Lei looked at Zhou Ziwen and said with emotion: "Ziwen, you are so popular! Everyone trusts you."
Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly and said, "This is all thanks to everyone's support and trust. I'm just doing my part."
After receiving the eggs, Li Lei and other members carefully moved the eggs into the renovated incubator.
Zhou Ziwen also followed in and helped to organize and place the eggs.
Because the hatching beds were not ready yet, they could only be temporarily placed in the warehouse.
However, in the absence of an incubation bed, they still found some straw, quilts and other insulating materials, and then placed the eggs neatly on them one by one.
"Brother Li, we need to quickly fix the iron plate of the incubation bed and the kerosene lamp for incubating eggs."
After putting the eggs away, Zhou Ziwen spoke.
"Yes, it's time to prepare early." Li Lei nodded. "I'll go talk to Uncle Wu right away. Let's get the kerosene lamp ready first. And if you have any requirements for the iron plate for the incubation bed, I'll ask the commune to help buy it."
It's hard for them to buy iron plates themselves, so it's best for the commune to provide them. (End of this chapter)
