Luan Ying thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you just ask your brother-in-law to pick it up?"
"It doesn't sound reliable for a man to act as a matchmaker. I think it would be safer for you to do it."
"I'm busy making money now, so why would I care about two dollars for a chicken? How about this, let your brother-in-law be the agent there, and I'll go talk to you here later."
"Do you think Erman's family, Lanzhi's family and Xinghua's family will agree to their daughters marrying into Wahou?" This is the question that Wan Feng is worried about. In 1981, the order of parents was still very fatal.
"It's hard to say. If the living standards of those in the low-income areas improve, they will naturally have nothing to say."
"That's not a problem. After the depression, the average salary this year is almost 200. 500 next year will be no problem. It's not less than what people earn on the boats at the coast. But it's not easy to change people's mindsets all of a sudden."
"We'll talk about it when the time comes. They're still young anyway, so there's still time. Everything will be easier when the living standards improve."
What Luan Ying said made sense. We were busy the previous year, so there was still time to talk about it after the New Year.
Wan Feng went to the post office and mailed the letter. When he returned to the market, the couplets had almost been sold out.
Compared with the last Black Lagoon Market, the sales of couplets today doubled, and only more than 100 sets of the 700 couplets brought were left.
Including today's sales, he has sold one-fifth of his 10,000 sets of couplets.
The classmates gathered around Wan Feng to settle the accounts, just like they were dividing the spoils.
After dividing the spoils, they went home.
Among these students, the one with the highest income already has ten yuan, and the one with the lowest income has more than five yuan. They all compare themselves with each other about how much money they have now.
They don’t feel proud because they have more, nor do they feel discouraged because they have less. They are all harmonious and happy.
At this time, Xiao Jun spoke. He was the only one in the group who went to the village to sell couplets on the sixth and seventh days of the Lunar New Year when there was no market.
"I've sold a total of 57 sets of couplets in the past two days."
He just said this, and the others' eyes became hot.
The envy, jealousy and hatred that had not appeared just now suddenly appeared.
So Jiang Jun started to say that he also wanted to go to the village to sell couplets in the afternoon, and asked who was willing to join him.
Xu Bin was the first to sign up, followed by Yuan Yimin.
Tan Chun is naturally together with Tan Sheng, and together with Li who is also from Wohutun.
The rest of the students did not respond, saying they would wait and see the results of their battle before making a decision.
Since there is nothing else to do, just pack up and go home.
After the car arrived home, Wan Feng arranged for people to sort the couplets in the afternoon. The fish he bought were divided into two again. Half of them were kept by Luan Feng's family, and the other half was taken back and forth to her grandmother's house using the tractor.
What made Wan Feng depressed was that he was scolded by his grandma again.
"Ah! Why did you buy all these things? They don't cost any money!"
My uncle stood up in time and said, "Your grandson is filial to you and spends money to buy you good food, but you are still not satisfied. How shameless!"
Jiang Xue sat in front of the stove, lighting the fire, smiling but saying nothing. She probably agreed with her husband's opinion in her heart.
After saying that, Zhu Ping came to Wan Feng and said, "I think we should buy some clam hair too."
Wan Feng rolled his eyes and said, "I don't like it. If you want to buy it, go buy it yourself."
Zhu Ping was disappointed and left in anger.
After finishing his meal, Wan Feng drove to the Yongshi Commune Machinery Factory.
But what disappointed Wan Feng was that even the smallest electric motor was too big to be used as an induced draft fan. If it was used as an induced draft fan, the firewood burning here might be sucked out of the chimney.
Wan Feng had no idea how many induced draft fans, blowers, submersible pumps and other gadgets he had repaired in his previous life. At the very least, he had been a professional electrical appliance repairman for five or six years, and the structures of these things had long been deeply imprinted in his mind.
The structure of the induced draft fan consists of a rainproof cap, a frame, a body, a rotor, carbon brushes, a coil, a bearing, a base and a smoke exhaust fan.
The rotor and carbon brushes can be purchased at the Warrior Machinery Factory. You can buy copper wire for the coil and wrap it yourself. You can also make the rain cap frame base and exhaust fan yourself. The only thing that is a bit troublesome is the machine body.
Wan Feng bought rotor carbon brushes, copper wire and two small bearings at the machinery factory, and then drove to Gushan Machinery Factory.
Although the Warrior Commune Machinery Factory belongs to this commune, he has almost no connections here and knows no one, so he can only go to the Gushan Machinery Factory to make parts.
Xiao Dexiang and Wan Feng studied for more than an hour before drawing a simple blueprint. Xiao Dexiang then went to the lathe to turn out an entire body for Wan Feng.
While he was making the body of the machine, Wan Feng found some scraps of iron and used a hammer to knock out the rain cap and fan.
After the body car came out, Wan Feng took these things home. As long as he wound the coil, he could make a simple induced draft fan.
Coil winding is a relatively time-consuming task, and the process requirements are high but not complicated. Anyone with little education can produce high-quality motor windings as long as they are not idiots.
Because the tools were not convenient to use, Wan Feng took several hours to wind the coil.
I worked until Luan Feng's workshop stopped working at night, and finally I finished this thing.
After being connected to the power supply, the somewhat ugly induced draft fan began to hum.
Luan Feng, Jiang Min and Er Man were all confused and had no idea what Wan Feng was talking about.
As long as it can turn, it's fine.
Wan Feng installed the induced draft fan on the chimney of the fire wall that night, installed a power switch in the room and connected it with an electric wire.
Wan Feng didn't consider whether this was considered as unauthorized wiring. Anyway, Luan Jianshe was the team's electrician and he would be responsible for any problems.
Wan Feng didn't go to the Gushan market because he didn't need to drive a tractor. The students each took twenty sets of couplets and went to the market by themselves.
Yang Qilang and Zhu Ping went together. In addition to the pile of rags that Wan Feng gave him, Zhu Ping also brought twenty sets of couplets for the first time.
Yang Qilang told him that he sold twenty sets of couplets in half a day yesterday, which touched Zhu Ping.
Wan Feng was studying his simple induced draft fan at home.
The source of fire for the fire wall is a large brick stove, which burns chopped firewood. A pot can be placed on the stove lid to cook or heat rice.
The stove was lit and the draft fan was turned on, and the firewood in the stove burned with a humming sound like a running train.
Half an hour later, the fire wall was hot and the entire sewing workshop was warm.
Jiang Min sat against the fire wall and stretched comfortably.
"My heart is warmed, Feng'er. Your little monster is so powerful and can do everything. I'm tempted. Just give him to me."
Luan Feng curled her lips: "You have a city hukou, would you want him?"
"At worst, I can give up my urban household registration. I think it's a good deal to exchange it for a good man."
Wan Feng would never refuse such a good thing: "You can be the second wife!"
"Get lost, tell me how many mistresses you have."
Wan Feng started to count with his fingers: "One, two, three..."
