The carriage stabilized, and Wan Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He was sweating profusely. If the carriage hadn't stopped and rolled back down this steep slope, it would have inevitably overturned. (Please search Baidu for the full version!)
The bricks that hit the truck were a small matter, but the three animals were probably dead too. If the truck owner hadn't dodged in time, he might have died with a smile on his face.
This is the big deal.
"Third Grandma, how much has your car carried?"
"Eight hundred yuan."
Oh my god, it’s such a steep slope and I have to pull 800 bricks.
"Didn't I tell you to not exceed six hundred? It's dangerous to take too much."
"Xiao Wan, we'll start pulling rice from the fields tomorrow, so we'll have to stop hauling your materials. I figured we'd be done with just pulling your bricks today."
"Third Grandma, please pull the bricks slowly. Safety must come first. If your brakes aren't sensitive enough, the carriage will flip over if it reverses... The consequences will be disastrous."
"If the big grasshopper hadn't fallen into the ditch, nothing would have happened."
Big grasshopper is the folk name for a walk-behind tractor.
"Let's get rid of this brick first. Don't stop here and look at it, feeling anxious. I'll hold the wheel in the back and you'll be in charge of turning it."
The carriage only has two wheels, and the advantage in this situation is that you can move forward by twisting the body of the carriage left and right to jam the wheels.
The coachman turned the carriage left and right, and Wan Feng squatted behind the wheels, holding a brick in one hand and plugging the left wheel first and then the right wheel.
The carriage was moved inch by inch towards the money. After working hard for a long time, it was finally brought to the surface.
Only then did he feel completely relieved.
I haven't been here for a few days. Is this how the carriage is transporting materials?
Just thinking about it makes me scared.
The carriage entered the yard to unload bricks, and Wan Feng came to the tractor that had fallen into the ditch.
The hand tractor was tilted in the ditch, and the driving wheel on the road was suspended off the ground.
Just now, when the carriage was moving backwards, it pulled the tractor back a meter and almost overturned it, so Jiang En's face was still pale.
Wan Feng and Jiang En put the dangling wheel back on the road.
"It's possible that this thing has three legs. If it's 22, you think it might slide into the ditch. Nephew, you have a good brain. Can't you change this thing into four wheels with a steering wheel?" Jiang En complained to Wan Feng.
Changing it to four wheels with a steering wheel? Wouldn't that make it a four-wheeled car?
Converting a walking tractor into a four-wheeled vehicle? That's a really creative idea!
Wan Feng took out a cigarette and threw it to Jiang En, then began to think about this problem.
Wan Feng was no stranger to the four-wheel tractor. He had tinkered with that thing countless times in his life. He could say without exaggeration that he could dismantle a four-wheel tractor into pieces and then reassemble it and drive it around in a day.
But I have never converted a hand-held vehicle into a four-wheeled one.
Adding a steering wheel and two steering wheels is not a big problem, but modifying the position of the engine, gearbox and drive wheels is difficult.
It seems feasible to design a frame, fix the engine and gearbox on the frame, still rely on belt drive, and then install drive wheels and steering wheels.
But how to solve the transmission relationship between the gearbox and the drive wheels?
Wan Feng thought for a long time until his head ached, and finally he slapped his head hard.
Am I stupid? I thought it would be better to design a four-wheeled vehicle instead of modifying this three-wheeled vehicle. I have seen many different types of four-wheeled vehicles in my life. It would be better to design a brand new four-wheeled vehicle than to modify this thing.
Four-wheeled vehicles had a peak period of about ten years in rural areas after 1986, and then began to be gradually replaced by three-wheeled vehicles. At that time, the number of various three-wheeled vehicles in rural areas was a terrifying number, and the most famous ones were Wuxing and Shifeng.
The most speechless thing is that around 2010, the hand tractors, which were rarely seen, became popular again in rural areas, and almost every household had one.
This is a huge market that dazzles all the peaks.
The engine can be bought ready-made, and the steering system is not a problem. The only problem is verifying the gearbox and rear axle.
Wan Feng knew exactly how these things worked. The only thing he had to do was to manufacture them and verify the rationality of their operation.
In rural terms, as long as this thing can be used and does not break down frequently, it can be put into production.
When other people are reborn, they play stocks, collect antiques, build fighter jets and warships. It is definitely impossible for a farmer like me to do all those things. So, can we build tractors and tricycles in the future?
This goal was not at all ambitious or lofty, but Wan Feng laughed.
Wan Feng helped Jiang En get out of the ditch, and then went to the brick factory. He wanted to talk to Zhang Hai about industrial construction issues.
"Let them go? Then who will help us build the factory and the building?" Zhang Hai asked in surprise.
"When I came here this afternoon, Xue Jianguo said that if things go wrong, the factory might not be completed until this time next year."
"It takes so long? This isn't a big project, why would it take so long?"
"If you go to their construction site and see how the workers work, you'll understand why it's taking so long. It's simply an African style. Uncle Zhang Hai, you should talk to Xue Jianguo. If they can't guarantee that the factory will be ready for use by March next year, we really need to get rid of them and form our own construction team to do it ourselves."
"Building a factory is fine, but we don't know how to build a building. If it collapses after it's built, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
"What's so great about building a building? I know how to build it."
"But we don't have that many people. We are even short of manpower right now."
That's a problem.
"Why don't we find a construction company to help us build it, but the prerequisite is that you go to the commune and get the construction funds for the factory and building. We can't just pay for it ourselves."
Zhang Hai began to scratch his head: "Is this okay? Will the secretary agree?"
"Give him the outline. You said this concerns the timing and direction of reform and opening up."
Zhang Hai was shocked: "How come there's a route problem?"
"The issue of policy direction has always existed. Some people are opposed to reform and opening up. Seeing that the wheel of history cannot be stopped, they will use some negative means to delay and procrastinate reform..."
"Okay, if you keep talking, my heart will tremble."
"Anyway, you can't scare people. You can say anything you want. Your goal is to get the wages back. Of course, all this is based on Xue Jianguo's non-cooperation. If he cooperated, nothing would happen."
"Okay, I'll talk to Xue Jianguo tomorrow. If they can't guarantee the progress of the project, we'll find someone to do it ourselves."
