While Song Yuangang and the people in the team were busy clearing the snow, Wang Dacheng was lying comfortably on his bed at home, sneering in his heart at them for being so idle that they had nothing to do.
He thought to himself: How heavy could the snow be? How could it possibly collapse the roof?
It's very cold now and the snow is falling heavily outside. As soon as I sweep the snow, another layer of it piles up. What's the point of sweeping it? Do I have to sweep it every day?
"Dacheng, I saw that the team leader seemed to be leading the team members to sweep the snow. Was that what you went to the meeting for? Then why didn't you go?" Wang Dacheng's wife came into the house from outside and said.
"Hmm." Wang Dacheng hummed, then said, "Why go there? Come sweep the snow with us. It's not like I think I'm living too comfortably. It's so cold, why should I go out and sweep the snow instead of staying indoors?"
Wang Dacheng's wife thought about it and didn't know what the point of sweeping the snow was at this time. Seeing that he was unwilling to go, she didn't say anything more.
Song Yuangang led his men to sweep all the way to the village head. After they were done, everyone hurried home. When they were walking back, they happened to pass by the old Song's house. Feng Guizhi saw them and called Song Yuangang into the house.
"Captain, please come in and rest for a while. It's snowing heavily outside. You can go back later."
Song Yuangang looked at himself covered in snow and decided not to refuse, so he stepped into the house.
Feng Guizhi patted the snow off his face with a cloth, then poured him a cup of hot water: "Drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."
Song Yuangang took the cup and held it in his hands to warm it. "Today we cleared all the snow in the brigade. It snowed so heavily that we probably have to clear it every day. However, no one in the brigade has any complaints. They even said that working out warms them up."
Feng Guizhi felt relieved after hearing this. If everyone was willing to cooperate, then Song Yuangang wouldn't be in such a difficult position. And if things continued like this, the roof collapse wouldn't have happened.
However, even if this problem is solved, there is still another hidden danger.
Song Yuangang added, "I'll go to the Yuejin Production Brigade this afternoon and talk to their team leader about this matter. I just don't know if the people in their team are willing to do it."
But after all, he and Gao Zhifu have some friendship. No matter what the final result is, at least he has to convey the message first.
Feng Guizhi nodded: "It's good to remind them, and let them decide the rest."
The tea in his hand has turned into warm water.
Yuangang put the drink on the table without drinking it and was about to get up and leave. At this time, Baoya, Yuanbao, Wenjie and Wenzhi ran into the room while discussing something.
"Grandma, do you know why your hands become warm when you rub them together?" Yuanbao ran into the house and asked Feng Guizhi loudly.
This really stumped Feng Guizhi. She only knew that this was the result, but she really couldn't explain why.
At this time, Wenjie behind him hurriedly said: "Milk, it's friction that generates heat! Our teacher said that if you rub your hands together like this, they will get warm!"
"This is just like what Yuanbao said before about making fire by rubbing two sticks together. It's all because of friction that heat is generated." Wenzhi also hurriedly added.
Feng Guizhi smiled and praised: "Your teacher is really amazing, he knows a lot and has taught you all well."
"Our teacher said that the temperature of water is constant, but the water in winter feels hot and the water in summer feels cold."
"Then how did your teacher explain it?" Feng Guizhi asked following his words.
"He said that because the temperature is low in winter, the water feels like it's getting hotter, but in fact the water temperature hasn't changed, it's the weather that has changed. But, but I still don't quite understand." Wenjie said, scratching his head.
Feng Guizhi smiled and said, "If you don't understand, ask your teacher when school starts."
Wenjie and Wenzhi both nodded and said, "Okay!"
Yuan Bao, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but say, "Third and Fourth Brother's teachers know so much. Are all teachers so amazing? I'm kind of itching to go to school. I want to know so much too." Turning around, he asked Bao Ya, "Little Sister Bao, do you want to go to school?"
Baoya blinked her big eyes, then nodded her head seriously: "Think~Teacher, that's great."
Listening to what Wenjie and Wenzhi said, although she still couldn't understand some of it, she felt that their teacher was very impressive. Moreover, her brothers were all in school, so she wanted to go to school with them.
"Third brother, fourth brother, did your teacher say anything else amazing? Tell us about it."
"There's more... let me think about it." Wenjie and Wenzhi scratched their heads and began to think.
Song Yuangang, who was about to leave, was just listening with a smile, but at this moment he was stunned and an idea came into his mind.
Teachers are indeed knowledgeable and cultured, but what about Xu Zhijin who lives in the cowshed in their team?
A teacher at a university in Kyoto...
After sitting there restlessly for a while, Song Yuangang stood up, said goodbye to Feng Guizhi and left. However, he had originally planned to go to the Yuejin Production Brigade in the afternoon, but now he changed his mind and went there directly after leaving Old Song's house in the heavy snow.
On the way, Song Yuangang frowned, thinking about the idea he had just had, and his heart was torn between two things.
The weather is too cold now. Some people in other teams have lost their lives because of this. He has been worried about this matter these days. Later, Wang Po was frozen unconscious, which made him even more worried.
He kept thinking about how to solve the problem, but he couldn't think of any solution.
But after listening to the conversation between Yuanbao Wenjie and the others, he couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in his heart. Could the university teacher in the cowshed who was transferred from Kyoto have a solution?
However, he also had some concerns in his heart, after all, Xu Zhijin's identity was quite sensitive.
Thinking this way all the way, Song Yuangang couldn't help but stop and take a few more glances at the cowshed in the divided area, then turned around and continued walking forward. It felt like not long after, Song Yuangang arrived at the Yuejin Production Brigade.
He found Gao Zhifu and told him about clearing the snow from the roof.
Gao Zhifu was a little confused when he first heard this, and didn't think that far ahead. But then he thought about it and felt that it was a potential danger, so he nodded in agreement. Looking at Song Yuangang covered in snow, he felt sincerely grateful:
"It must be a difficult journey. It's really hard for you to make this trip."
Song Yuangang waved his hand: "It's okay, I didn't do anything, it's all my responsibility."
It was lunchtime, so Gao Zhifu quickly invited him to eat at home: "Don't leave at noon, let's have a good drink together. I still have some wine left at home, which can warm you up in the winter."
"No, I won't stay. I will definitely have a drink with Captain Gao next time I have the chance." Song Yuangang was worried about something, so he didn't stay.
Gao Zhifu tried to persuade him for a long time, but seeing that he really had something to do, he finally gave up: "Okay, in that case, I won't keep you this time. You must come next time, and you can't refuse again."
Song Yuangang nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "Okay, I will definitely not be polite to you next time."
Then Song Yuangang left. The snow was still falling outside, and there was a bit of wind, which was very cold.
The wind blew over with snowflakes, and the icy faces of the people slowly lost consciousness.
Song Yuangang walked back on the snow, leaving a trail of footprints on the road.
It didn't take long for Song Yuangang to reach the bullpen again. He stood outside for a few seconds, then turned around and headed towards Xu Zhijin's residence.
"Are you in the house?" Song Yuangang said standing outside the door.
Xu Zhijin had just finished his meal when he heard Song Yuangang's voice outside. He quickly looked around his room, making sure it wouldn't cause any trouble for Zhao Rongsheng and the others before going over to open the door. However, due to the recent cold weather, his health had deteriorated considerably, and his movements were somewhat stiff and sluggish.
After opening the door, Xu Zhijin looked at Song Yuangang and asked, "Captain?"
"Can I come in?" Song Yuangang said as he patted the snow off his body.
Xu Zhijin stepped aside to let Song Yuangang in. Seeing that he was covered in snow, he wiped it off with his own clothes.
"How are you these past few days? Are you missing anything?"
Xu Zhijin shook his head: "Nothing is missing. Thank you for your concern, Captain."
The room fell silent. Song Yuangang picked up a few random topics and said a few simple words. Xu Zhijin noticed that he seemed to have something to say, but he did not take the initiative to ask.
Afterwards, Song Yuangang didn't want to waste any more time talking nonsense, so he told the purpose of his visit: "I came here this time because I want to ask you something."
Xu Zhijin was a little puzzled, not knowing what question he could ask him, but he still said, "Captain, please tell me."
Song Yuangang sighed, "The temperature has dropped recently, and it's been too cold. I heard that some teams have had accidents because of this, and even someone in our team fainted the day before yesterday. So I came here today to ask if you have any solutions."
Song Yuangang looked at Xu Zhijin with a sincere look: "If you know, I hope you can tell me. After all, it is a matter of life and death. If you have any difficulties, you can also tell me, and I will do my best to solve it for you. Of course, even if you can't think of a solution, it doesn't matter. I won't judge you for it."
Xu Zhijin didn't say anything. After listening, he lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Song Yuangang did not urge him, but waited quietly for his answer. However, although he had hope in his heart
But I also know that this hope is slim.
In such cold weather, they don't have very good conditions. How can they solve the problem of freezing? In cold weather, apart from wearing more clothes and warming themselves by the fire, there seems to be no other way.
After a while, Xu Zhijin looked up at Song Yuangang and said, "I do know a way to solve the problem of freezing in such cold weather."
Song Yuangang was delighted when he heard this and quickly asked, "Really? What's the solution?"
But Xu Zhijin frowned slightly: "However, it may be a little difficult to actually put it into practice."
Song Yuangang also frowned after hearing this. He didn't say anything and waited for Xu Zhijin to continue.
"There's a place in northern China where the weather is freezing cold. In winter, the temperature can drop to -30 degrees Celsius..."
Song Yuan was stunned when he heard this. The lowest temperature here was probably only -10 degrees Celsius. He thought this temperature was already very cold. It was hard to imagine how people could survive in -30 degrees Celsius.
Knowing that what Xu Zhijin was going to say next would be the main point, Song Yuangang unconsciously held his breath and waited for his next words.
