Gu Hanping's eyes were burning with intensity.
His gaze was so intense it could burn through Gu Yunyang.
Since Gu Yunyang had brought it up, he intended to do it for the other villagers as well.
However, he can build biogas digesters, and he can learn how to do it.
Now his mental strength has greatly increased, and his learning ability also seems to have improved.
Gu Yunyang had watched many videos of biogas digesters and was confident that he wouldn't make a mistake.
He nodded, but still reminded me, "I know how, but there are difficulties involved."
"What? You mean, as long as it's solvable, we can solve it?" Gu Hanping thought to himself, "When the brigade has electric lights, at least the lighting problem will be solved. By the way, the biogas digester for electricity shouldn't cost any more money, right?"
"It's true that you don't need to spend money. But the construction of a biogas digester requires a very good seal, which ordinary mud bricks and soil won't do. So you need a lot of blue bricks and cement. I've calculated that if it's not too big, and it's just a family's own toilet, it will cost about a hundred yuan."
"One hundred yuan?"
That's way too expensive.
But believe it or not, even if it's expensive, you might not be able to build it.
Cement is very expensive.
And without tickets, you can't get one.
This cement, not only now, but even after the reform and opening up, the country did not have enough technology or enough production capacity.
A large amount of cement needs to be imported.
The fact that many large cement plants in later generations were foreign-owned speaks volumes.
Moreover, many special types of cement still need to be imported in large quantities every year.
Gu Yunyang nodded: "Yes, one hundred yuan. If the biogas digester is not sealed properly, it can leak biogas, which is very dangerous."
Furthermore, it must not be exposed to open flames, as this could cause an explosion.
explode?
Gu Hanping's eyes widened, and at the same time, Hao Pingping came out and exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Yunyang laughed: "Of course, it's scientifically constructed with cement, so the sealing is sufficient, and there's no need to worry about these things."
Biogas digesters also have many benefits, the first being lighting, which should be sufficient for a household's electricity needs.
In addition, a pipeline can be drawn from the biogas digester to solve the problem of fire in the home, such as cooking and preparing food, and biogas can also be used.
Every now and then, the waste residue from the biogas digester becomes excellent fertilizer, supplementing the lack of chemical fertilizers in the fields.
Gu Yunyang also briefly explained the benefits of biogas digesters: "That's the gist of it. Whether or not to build one is up to the team leader to decide."
"If you need anything else, the team leader can get the rest himself. I'll guide you through the construction process."
After a pause, Gu Yunyang added, "By the way, does the brigade leader have any connections to buy bricks and tiles for my house?"
Gu Hanping replied without hesitation, "I'll think of a way, but if you want to build so many houses, plus the biogas digester you mentioned, not counting the cement, you'll probably have to spend at least four hundred yuan."
Four hundred yuan was quite a lot at that time.
Their whole family wouldn't get this much in a year.
Besides, where in the house is there no expense?
Every year, buying new clothes for the children, as well as other household expenses, adds up to a considerable amount.
Putting aside everything else, the kerosene used for lighting alone consumes a considerable amount every year.
It will definitely cost twenty or thirty yuan.
It's best to use it as little as possible, and only click on it when absolutely necessary.
The chicken butts in the house aren't even enough for this lighting.
"Four hundred yuan is no problem. Anyway, this is a top priority, and it's just a one-time investment. Once the house is built, the subsequent expenses will be less."
"Okay, I'll ask around for you first. I'll go and make the arrangements for you in a few days after the busy farming season is over."
