"The captain is so domineering!"
Zhou Ziwen was a little surprised to see the captain's actions, in which he treated the captain of Xiaobazi Village like a young wife.
"Haha, you'll get used to it. Our captain is no slouch."
"Yeah, back then, Captain Zhou was a fierce man who could fight 20 big men alone. What's a small village like that?"
Hearing Zhou Ziwen's sigh, the nearby villagers burst into laughter.
"So fierce?" Zhou Ziwen looked at the captain who had returned to the ox cart, his eyes filled with eagerness to try.
I don’t know if the captain can take his punch.
Thinking that he could punch with a force of two thousand pounds, Zhou Ziwen gave up the idea.
If he really threw that punch, I would probably kneel down and beg him not to die.
Pushing the cart, they moved slowly along the way. When the sun came out outside, they finally arrived at the commune's grain station.
However, at this time, there was already a long line outside the grain station.
There was a dense crowd of people.
Everyone was crowded and pushing each other, and the noise was almost enough to blow the roof off.
Zhou Ziwen discovered that there were very few livestock outside. People like those in Dabazi Village who had two cows were handsome wherever they went.
"It seems that Dabazi Village is really one of the richer villages nearby. The villagers didn't lie to me."
Zhou Ziwen held the cart and thought to himself.
He often chatted with his fellow villagers and knew some things about the nearby villages. Most of the time, they said that Dabazi Village was better. At that time, he didn't feel anything. After all, it was the countryside, and in his opinion, they were all the same. Even if it was better, it probably wouldn't be much better.
Who would have thought that there would be such a huge gap.
As soon as they arrived at the commune's grain station, they lined up under the arrangement of the team leader and Wu Dagang.
They had just lined up when some people from other villages came behind them.
At this time, Zhou Ziwen felt a little fortunate that the captain asked them to set off so early. If they had set off a little later, they might not have been able to finish the work today.
Zhou Ziwen was in the middle, talking to the villagers in the front and back rows while moving with the team.
The commune's grain station is about the same size as the village's threshing ground. It is surrounded by a high wall made of gray bricks, which are not common in rural areas but are often seen in the county town.
After waiting for almost an hour, it was finally the turn of Dabazi Village.
The grain will only be accepted after it has been inspected by grain inspectors and is found to be qualified.
If it fails to meet the standards, the grain inspector will ask you to take it back.
Wu Dagang seemed to know the grain inspector. After exchanging a cigarette, the two chatted and laughed while peeling and weighing the grain basket by basket.
After weighing, the grain can be stored.
However, when storing the grain, the villagers need to pour it in themselves.
Fortunately, this was the last task and the villagers were very active. After all the grain was stored in the warehouse, it was exactly twelve o'clock.
The team leader gathered everyone together and told them that they had half a day of free time in the afternoon. Those who wanted to stroll around the city could stay, and those who wanted to go back could leave with everyone.
Originally, Zhou Ziwen planned to buy a big iron pot, but his bicycle didn’t come, so he had to wait until next time.
In fact, the village's ox cart could help him pull the cart, but with so many people on it, he was afraid of being called a prodigal son.
After all, he had only bought the pot not long ago and hadn't even used it many times. Not to mention the villagers, even he himself knew that this behavior was a waste of money.
But he really couldn't bring himself to use the big iron pot to cook because it had been used to boil cow dung.
On the way back, Zhou Ziwen sat on the ox cart, and the cart was taken away by Uncle Jiang.
Some people also collected baskets and other things and took them back with other villagers.
After shaking all the way for more than an hour, they finally returned to the village.
After returning to the village, Zhou Ziwen walked towards the mushroom house.
After being busy for such a long day, he still had no time to eat lunch. He had to find the Chen sisters to get the key to their house and then cook for himself.
He had originally planned to go to the county town to eat, but just as he was about to go, Uncle Wu stopped him and asked him if he wanted to take a ox cart.
Since there was a free ride, of course he didn't want to walk back.
"Brother Zhou."
"Brother Zhou, you're back!"
…
As soon as he arrived at the mushroom house, the busy team members greeted him one by one.
"How is it? Nothing went wrong today, right?" Zhou Ziwen nodded to them one by one, then asked with a smile.
"No problem, these mushrooms are growing very well. Many villagers have come to see our mushrooms in the past few days!" Liu Dawei said with a smile.
"Tell them to be careful when watching and not to touch anything. Also, remember to ventilate the room after watching." Zhou Ziwen reminded.
In fact, it is best to cultivate mushrooms in a sterile environment, but now the mushrooms are almost mature, so it’s okay for the villagers to come and take a look.
After all, we are all from the same hometown, and it would not be nice not to let them see it.
Of course, if it is in the early stages of cultivation, you definitely cannot watch it.
It’s not that we are afraid of leaking any secrets, but there are too many bacteria on the human body. Mushrooms in the early stages of cultivation are very delicate and will fail if we are not careful.
"Brother Zhou, we didn't let them in, we just let them watch outside the window." Wang Dayou explained from the side.
"Okay, as long as you know the severity of the situation." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"Brother Ziwen, have you eaten?" After chatting with other team members, Chen Qiaoyi came over from the side.
"Not yet. I came here to get the key from you!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Then you should go back quickly. I'll give you the key." Hearing that Zhou Ziwen had not eaten yet, Chen Qiaoyi showed a distressed expression.
"Ziwen, there are steamed buns and vegetables at home. You can just go back and heat them up." Chen Shiying said from the side.
"Okay, I understand." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
He doesn't care at all whether there is food at home or not. He knows how to cook it himself, so he can just go home and prepare it slowly.
At the urging of the two sisters, Zhou Ziwen did not stay in the mushroom house for long. He said a few words to them and came out.
On the way home, he opened the gate of the Chen sisters' house. As soon as he entered, a little guy was wagging his tail and wrapped around his legs.
"Haha! Little guy, are you bored staying at home? I'll take you to find something delicious later." Zhou Ziwen rubbed Tayun's dog's head, ready to let it contribute to the family.

【Medical Skills Level 0 (268/500)】
【Dog Training Level 2 (6/200)】
【Cooking Level 4 (297/400)】
After a few days of idle time, all the skills on the panel have been improved, especially the dog training skill, which has been upgraded to level two.
At this level, he has also mastered the skill of dog training.
And today is the time to verify the effectiveness of training.
The dog has a very good nose, and he decided to take advantage of this to go to the sweet potato field and turn over the sweet potatoes.
Although the villagers had already searched the area two days ago, there must be some that were missed. With Tayun's sense of smell, I believe it can help find some that have slipped through the net. (End of this chapter)
