She took off the backpack and placed the things inside on the large desk one by one. These things were all things she had collected over the years or things she had obtained by accident.
There are nothing too precious, just things that cannot be left outside, and some things picked up in the mountains and buried in the soil.
She really didn't know whether it was valuable or not, but she just wanted to keep it like this. When the situation improved, she could use it for herself or try to exchange it for money.
She sorted out the things one by one. Some of the things she picked up from the mountains were dirty, so she would clean them up when she had time. The cleaning method was taught to her by the one-eyed grandfather, but she didn't have some tools yet, so she would go buy them together when there was a chance.
There are also wooden shelves. Starting tomorrow, she will put more wooden shelves in the vegetable cellar and the secret room on the bottom floor, so that she can store a lot of things.
Maybe Chen Ye has never owned anything and is a penniless person, so he especially likes to hoard things, such as these junks in front of him, which he doesn't know whether they have any value or not.
For example, when she sees plenty of food, she feels that she will not be hungry.
For example, hunting little by little for money, as if she wouldn't feel anxious if she had money in her pocket.
She wants to slowly accumulate wealth through her own efforts and become a 'rich' person.
The days are getting hotter day by day. Now we have to go to work in the morning before the sun rises and in the afternoon when the sun is about to set. It is really unbearable to be directly exposed to the scorching sun during the day.
It won't take long for a person to get sunburned, so they can only work in the fields when the sun is not so scorching. The weather in the Northeast is mostly cloudy and breezy, but the direct sunlight is even hotter than that in the South.
Chen Ye took advantage of his free time during the day to tidy up his cellar inside and out. Looking at the steps paved with homemade bricks, it is much safer than just putting a ladder there.
Every time she completed a handicraft, Chen Ye would feel a sense of satisfaction. This was in the 1960s. If it were in the future, she would definitely become a wilderness survival anchor.
All the things that are difficult to store at home are put into the cellar one by one. The outermost layer contains ordinary food, such as a small amount of grain, and some dried wild vegetables, dried mushrooms, etc.
She entered a small open door. This was the small house next to the stone wall, a few square meters in size. It contained some dried meat and bacon made from the game she had hunted, but of course the quantity was not much.
Then he kicked the stone wall with his foot, and an invisible door opened to one side. If this door had not been opened, even a person with the best eyesight would not have noticed that there was a door here.
When she first made this door, Chen Ye admired it for a long time. She wondered how such an exquisite thing could have been made by her hands. Suddenly, she felt that she was quite amazing.
After passing through this door, you will enter the underground level of the secret room, where there are extra food and meat, as well as some extra nutritional supplements.
Afraid that it would be too humid here to store things, Chen Ye also made two vents leading directly to the outside to make it dry. The shelves for placing things were also made very high so that all items did not have to be directly touching the ground.
She also got a lot of moisture-absorbing lime. She didn't use the remaining two floors where the previous owner lived, so she moved all the boxes there and planned to seal them up temporarily.
Only the top floor was used thoroughly by her, and she cleaned it most carefully. When she has nothing to do in the future, she plans to do what she likes there.
Clapping his hands, Chen Ye was very satisfied with his masterpiece. He closed the small door of the tight room, walked out of the cellar along the stairs, went to the shed at the back, took out a large sack and went to the front yard.
This place is close to the foot of the mountain, so the entire yard is not directly exposed to the sun. As the sun moves, there is always a shady spot in the yard.
However, Chen Ye still extended the eaves of her house by about 1.5 meters and made a place similar to a corridor. Even if it rains, she can hide under it without worrying about getting wet.
She put the sack in her hand on the ground, took out the toolbox and put it aside. Dashuang and Ershuang worked very hard for this toolbox, and their legs were almost broken from running, before they got her this box of relatively complete tools.
After dumping the wheels and frame out of the sack, careful observation revealed that although the outside looked rusty, the main materials inside were still very solid.
The cellar and secret room have been completed. Now it is time for her to stockpile things. If she wants to stockpile some things that are not available in the village and that she needs, she has to leave the village and go to the county town or the city.
Even if I had a bicycle, I couldn't bring back much each time, and it would waste a whole day or two every time I went out. It wasn't cost-effective no matter how I looked at it.
She planned to try to piece together a three-wheeled bicycle with a carriage on the back so that every time she had to go out to purchase supplies, she could bring back more supplies at one time.
This kind of handicraft was something she had never done before. She only had the theory but no practical experience. However, she was a patient person, especially when it came to the various handicrafts she liked. She would keep trying until she succeeded and never thought of giving up.
Four discarded wheels and a frame with two bent beams were pieced together bit by bit in Chen Ye's hands to form a complete vehicle. For a whole half month, Chen Ye did not leave the house except when he had to go to work.
After those people in the village who cared about her came to see her, they didn't come to disturb her again. The main reason was that the little girl was too focused and you felt embarrassed to talk to her and disturb her from working hard.
But no one was skeptical about whether she could make the three-wheeled bicycle she talked about. After all, if anyone could make a bicycle, would it still be a big thing?
Or is it a valuable item that is hard to come by and is considered one of the three great items?
Chen Ye didn't care whether these people believed she could do it or not. As long as she believed she could do it, that was enough.
Shuanzhu was worried about his sister. He didn't know how many times he came to see her every day. He was afraid that if he didn't come to keep an eye on her, his sister would starve to death because she was too engrossed in making things.
When he was tied to the gate, he saw a tricycle standing in the yard. His eyes widened. It was incredible that he could perform such a difficult movement with such small eyes.
"Sister, sister, sister, you really did it?" The voice was raised an octave, which showed how surprised Shuanzhu was.
Chen Ye was just figuring out what to put in the back compartment when he heard Shuanzhu's surprised voice: "Why didn't you come yesterday?"
