In the next few days, Zhou Ziwen's life fell into peace.
Every day when we go to work, we gather at the village threshing ground, and then take a walk outside, sometimes to the mushroom planting base, sometimes to the pig farm and chicken farm, to check the progress here.
Calculating the time, it has been more than three months since the pig farm was built and the Landrace pigs were raised.
Fed with biological feed, the Landrace pigs thrive, each one is fat and strong with shiny fur.
At this rate, it won’t be long before they can be marketed.
The chicken farm was built in May, which is two months ago.
In just two months, two batches of chicks have been hatched.
The first batch of chicks consisted of more than 3,000 chicks. After a month of growth and feeding with biological feed, their size had increased several times compared to when they were just hatched.
The original fluffy chick appearance has gradually faded, and tough feathers have begun to grow, becoming stronger and more robust.
In two months, the first batch of chicks will be able to lay eggs, and the village will have an additional source of income.
The second batch of chicks hatched a total of 4,000 chicks, 500 ducklings, and 200 geese. Although they have only been hatched for a few days, they are growing very fast. It is expected that under good breeding conditions, these chickens, ducks, and geese will grow up healthily and add new impetus to the village's breeding industry.
Zhou Ziwen was very satisfied with the results. Although he did not contribute much, without him, the pig farm and chicken farm would not have been possible.
If it weren't for him, Wu Dagang and the team leader would not dare to try such a project rashly.
In his spare time, he translated the information given to him by Li Guangwen at home.
The information this time is more difficult and time-consuming.
Although his English skills have reached level four and his understanding and application of English have made a qualitative leap, the large number of professional terms and complex sentence structures involved in this material still require him to spend a lot of time and energy to study.
Of course, as the translation work progresses, the proficiency of English skills also increases rapidly.
While hanging up the phone and performing actual operations, his English level was like a high-speed train, rushing forward continuously.
Every time you solve a complex sentence and accurately translate an unfamiliar professional term, the progress bar of your skill proficiency will grow visibly.
In just a few days, the proficiency increased by more than a hundred points.
Following this trend, it won’t be long before we can upgrade again.
…
That day, Zhou Ziwen was tired of translating, so he took little Yueyue out for a walk.
Little Yueyue is very active. As soon as she goes out, she dances with joy and babbles non-stop.
Her bright big eyes looked around curiously, full of novelty about everything around her.
Zhou Ziwen held her in his arms and walked on the village path. The breeze blew gently, bringing the scent of soil and crops from the fields.
Little Yueyue stretched out her little hands and tried to grab the wild flowers and grasses swaying in the wind by the roadside. Her naive look made Zhou Ziwen laugh.
When passing by the Youth League Home, he also found that construction was underway not far away. It was a house built by several educated youths in the Youth League Home.
They all came from well-off families. They felt that living in the Youth League Home was crowded and simple, and when they saw that Zhou Ziwen's family had built their own house, they also became interested.
But after just one look, Zhou Ziwen couldn't help but frown.
He found that the location where these educated youth built their houses was not very good.
According to his level 4 Feng Shui knowledge, which was about to be upgraded to level 5, that place was located in a low-lying area with few trees around, resulting in insufficient Yang energy and excessive Yin energy.
Living in such a place for a long time can easily make people physically weak, mentally depressed, and their fortunes will also be affected.
Zhou Ziwen frowned and thought to himself, this won’t do. If the house is built here, the educated youth will definitely encounter various problems in the future.
He hesitated for a moment, but decided to go forward and remind them.
As for whether they believe it or not, that is none of his business. He has done what he should do anyway.
Of course, reminders are one thing, but you can’t say outright that there’s something wrong with the feng shui.
After all, in this era, Feng Shui is feudal superstition.
He still needs to think carefully about how to say it specifically.
Holding little Yueyue, Zhou Ziwen prepared to go and see the place where they were building the house.
It was too far away and he didn't know the details.
Holding little Yueyue in his arms, Zhou Ziwen slowly approached the site where construction was underway.
The construction site was bustling with activity, with villagers each doing their part by carrying building materials and digging foundations.
Little Yueyue was attracted by the lively scene here. She waved her hands excitedly and muttered "Yeah".
Zhou Ziwen patted her back gently, comforting her while carefully observing the surrounding environment.
He found that not only was the terrain here low-lying, but the soil also seemed to be relatively loose, which posed a considerable hidden danger to the stability of the house's foundation.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen coming, the members greeted him one after another.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen coming, the members greeted him one after another.
"Ziwen, bring Yueyue out to play." Uncle Niu from the village said with a smile.
Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile: "Yes, Uncle Niu, you guys are working very hard."
Uncle Niu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "These educated youth want to finish building the house as soon as possible, so we have to work harder too."
At this time, several educated youth who were building houses also returned from work.
The first thing they did when they came back was to check on the construction progress of the house.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen, an educated youth named Chen Youqing asked enthusiastically, "Ziwen, why are you here?"
Zhou Ziwen smiled and said, "I took Yueyue out for a walk and came to see how your house is going."
Another educated youth named Liu Wei came up to Yueyue and made funny faces at her, saying, "Yueyue, you're becoming more and more adorable."
Little Yueyue was not shy and kept giggling at the educated youth.
Zhou Ziwen looked at the busy construction site and said to them, "I just took a look and felt that this place was not quite right."
"Look at this land, it's too low-lying. When the rainy season comes, rainwater will definitely accumulate here, and the house will easily get damp."
"Also, the soil here is quite soft, and the foundation may not be stable, which will pose a safety hazard to living there in the future."
After hearing Zhou Ziwen's words, the relaxed smiles on the faces of several educated youth gradually disappeared and solemn expressions appeared on their faces.
They began to take a serious look at their surroundings and realized the seriousness of the problem.
Chen Youqing frowned and said, "We really didn't pay attention to these problems before. We just wanted to build the house quickly. So what should we do now?"
Zhou Ziwen suggested, "I think you can choose another location. This place is really not suitable for building a house."
After hearing what Zhou Ziwen said, several educated youth looked at each other, at a loss for a moment.
At this time, Uncle Niu, who had been listening nearby, also spoke up: "Ziwen is right. When building a house in our countryside, we must have a solid foundation and high and open terrain."
"This place is really not good. If you really build a house here, you will be the ones who suffer in the future." (End of this chapter)
