"Ziwen, are you going to the mushroom base this afternoon? There's a batch of mushrooms there that are almost ripe."
Just as Zhou Ziwen was about to take a nap, Chen Shiying asked from the side.
"Then I'll go and take a look!" Zhou Ziwen nodded.
After a short lunch break, when it was almost time to go to work, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Shiying set off for the mushroom cultivation base together.
Along the way, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing, making people feel particularly comfortable.
After arriving at the base, the team members saw Zhou Ziwen coming and surrounded him.
"Team Leader, you're here. These mushrooms are growing really well. When do we start picking them?"
Liu Dawei, the team leader in charge of the second workshop, came over and asked.
Zhou Ziwen carefully observed the growth of the mushrooms and found that, as Chen Shiying had said, most of the mushrooms were mature, with full caps and bright colors.
"Let's do it tomorrow! Prepare the picking tools today, and then talk to Secretary Wu." Zhou Ziwen said.
He no longer cares about the mushroom cultivation base. Most of the time, he lets the team leaders take charge of it themselves, and then Chen Shiying is responsible for management.
As for himself, he is responsible for controlling the general direction.
"Okay, Team Leader."
After listening to Zhou Ziwen's instructions, Liu Dawei nodded and turned around to arrange the preparation of picking tools.
Zhou Ziwen looked around the base to make sure there were no other problems.
He was very satisfied when he saw that the mushrooms in other workshops were also growing well.
After staying at the mushroom cultivation base for a while, Zhou Ziwen went to the pig farm.
He stayed here for half a day and only came out when it was almost time to get off work.
Seeing that the pig farm was getting back on track, Zhou Ziwen felt like he had some free time.
Thinking of the news about the crusher that Wu Dagang had brought him before, he decided to go and take a look tomorrow.
After this period of idle time, his mechanical maintenance has reached level three.
Although level three is not very high, it means you are no longer completely ignorant in the maintenance industry.
At least he could tell whether a relatively simple device like a crusher could be repaired.
As long as it's not too badly damaged and there's a chance it can be repaired, he's not afraid.
What he was afraid of was that it would be so completely damaged that it couldn't even be repaired.
It is worth mentioning that when he delivered food in the morning, his stonemason had already reached the maximum level.
After reaching the maximum level, he put his mechanical manufacturing skills into idle mode.
Unlike mechanical maintenance, mechanical manufacturing is also a broad field, and just getting started requires a lot of proficiency.
【Mechanical Manufacturing Level 0】(9/500)
However, this skill is also very useful.
When he returns to the city in the future, he can open his own factory and contribute to the country's development.
Of course, while making contributions, he can also make money.
He is not alone now, he has a wife and a daughter.
He needs to think about his family's future, make more money and give them a better life.
After leaving the pig farm, Zhou Ziwen turned a corner and came to the village committee office.
"Ziwen, why are you here? Is it about the mushroom harvest?"
Seeing Zhou Ziwen coming to his house, Wu Dagang was a little curious.
Based on his understanding of Zhou Ziwen, if nothing was wrong, he would not come here at this time.
After all, it's almost time to get off work.
Zhou Ziwen smiled and shook his head. "Uncle Wu, I've already arranged the mushroom harvest and will start picking tomorrow. I came here to ask you about the crusher. Didn't you say there was news about the crusher last time? I want to go take a look tomorrow."
"Oh, yes, President Fu said last time that a machinery factory had two scrapped crushers." Wu Dagang nodded.
"Then should I go to the commune to find President Fu tomorrow?" Zhou Ziwen asked.
"Yes, we do need to go there. Not everyone can enter the machinery factory. You need someone to take you there. Even if no one takes you there, you still need a letter of recommendation from the commune."
Wu Dagang nodded and said, "We are going to harvest mushrooms tomorrow. After we finish harvesting, we can go and have a look together."
He was still a little worried about letting Zhou Ziwen go alone.
It’s not that I don’t trust Zhou Ziwen’s judgment, but I’m mainly afraid that he won’t be able to bargain.
According to his understanding, the two crushers were only worth scrap metal. If they could really be repaired, then they would have to be negotiated carefully.
Wu Dagang has lived a hard life and knows that every penny is hard-earned, so when it comes to buying equipment, he hopes to save as much as possible.
Zhou Ziwen also understood Wu Dagang's thoughts and nodded, saying, "Uncle Wu, let's wait until the mushrooms are harvested and go together. I'll take a look at the two crushers first. If they can be repaired, we can discuss the price."
"Okay." Wu Dagang nodded in agreement.
The next day, the team members of the mushroom cultivation base started picking mushrooms early.
Zhou Ziwen also came to the base and watched Chen Shiying directing the team members to pick mushrooms.
The team members were very skilled and quickly finished picking the ripe mushrooms. Looking at the baskets of fresh mushrooms, everyone's faces were filled with the joy of harvest.
This was not the first time they had harvested mushrooms.
The amount of mushrooms harvested this time was not a lot, but with the concerted efforts of the team members, they harvested 10,000 kilograms before noon. At this rate, the harvest will be completed in two or three days.
Of course, this was also because most of the members of the production team went to collective labor, and many people also went to grow mushrooms.
If there weren't so few people, the harvest would have been completed in one day.
"Ziwen, let's eat first! We'll set off after lunch."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Wu Dagang was not in a hurry to leave.
No matter how urgent it is, there is no need to rush this little time.
Man is iron and rice is steel. If you don’t eat for a meal, you will feel hungry.
Zhou Ziwen nodded, chatted with Wu Dagang for a few words, and then went home with Chen Shiying.
When I got home, Chen Qiaoyi was preparing lunch in the kitchen.
Little Yueyue was sitting in the stroller playing with the new toys Zhou Ziwen had made.
This little guy gets bored easily and loses interest in any toy after playing with it for a short time.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen has the maximum level of carpentry skills, so it is very simple to make these little gadgets.
When the little guy saw Zhou Ziwen coming back, he immediately stretched out his hands for a hug.
Zhou Ziwen smiled, picked up little Yueyue and kissed her little face.
After a while, lunch was ready and the family sat around the dining table, enjoying a warm lunch time.
After lunch, after a short rest, Zhou Ziwen, Wu Dagang and some villagers transported the freshly harvested mushrooms to the commune.
Everyone talked and laughed along the way, talking about the mushroom harvest.
"There are a lot of straw mushrooms this time. I think there are still many mushrooms that have not been harvested." Wu Dagang said with a happy smile.
"Well, it's estimated to be more than 40,000 kilograms!" Zhou Ziwen nodded.
With his top-level mushroom-growing skills, although he usually doesn't take care of things, he was the one who researched key things like the culture medium, and the team members only needed to configure them according to the recipe.
As his planting skills improved, he made great progress in mushroom cultivation.
The result is a significant increase in mushroom production. (End of this chapter)
