Chapter 29 Purchasing Drilling Rigs and Pumps
After choosing a few stores with good sales and high comprehensive credit, Sun Jie clicked on customer service.

After inquiring about delivery time, equipment related matters, etc., I placed an order.

In order to prevent unforeseen accidents, Sun Jie bought several at a time.

Basically, they are all diesel-powered drilling rigs, and there are nearly ten sets in total.

The drilling machines that Sun Jie bought are not very big, and the main body is not that big, about half the size of a car.

More are the supporting materials on the drilling rig, the drill bits for drilling, the connecting rods at the back and other things.

It's not drilling oil fields, the drilling rigs for ordinary water wells are really not that big.

On average, a set of equipment is only around [-], which Sun Jie can afford now.

At first I wanted to buy some water pumps, but I gave up after thinking about it. There was no electricity in the Ming Dynasty, so buying it was useless.

Without a stable power station, using diesel engines to generate electricity is just an empty talk that is taken for granted. Diesel is required every day, which will waste time and effort.

I also searched for "old-fashioned manual water pump" on the shopping website. In the past, when tap water was not connected to the countryside, this kind of water pump was basically used in the village.

This kind of pressurized water pump is far less efficient than the electric self-priming pump, but the structure is simple, practical and reliable, and it does not need electricity, so it became the standard configuration in rural areas of that era.

It would be best to apply this thing to the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, the shopping website is very powerful, and there are many merchants selling this kind of pump.

Sun Jie selected a few shops with high sales volume and high evaluation, and after asking some precautions, he bought a dozen more.

A dozen or so hand-operated water pumps are definitely not enough, but this thing is not a rare thing, and you can buy it later.

After placing the order and paying the money, Sun Jie walked out of the supermarket and closed the door.

Wandered around the market and bought some supplements.

It's just a temporary decision, so I can only temporarily buy some of these rotten street supplements in the market. When I have enough time on hand, I will hang around in the late Ming Dynasty to see if I can buy some century-old wild ginseng and the like. thing.

Sun Jie's hometown is not far from the city, about three or four hours' drive away.

He drove his own pickup truck with the purchased supplements in the compartment, and stepped out of the city with a kick of the accelerator.

A lot of time was wasted in the city, and there were a lot of traffic lights, so when I left the city, the speed quickly increased.

The number of traffic lights decreased, the roads began to widen, and the traffic volume on the streets was not as good as that in the urban area.

The pickup truck is driving on the asphalt road, because it is not a high speed, so the speed is not very fast.

The residential houses on both sides of the road passed by the car window, and Sun Jie was getting closer and closer to his hometown.

The sun finally set on the western mountain, and Sun Jie drove into the cement road trail.

Walking into the cement road path, it is even closer to home.

From time to time on the road, you can meet a few village buses. Seeing this kind of vehicle proves that you are almost home.

After turning a few corners and walking through several Yellow River canals, Sun Jie stopped in front of a bungalow with a yard.

home, here we are.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw my dad coming back from the field not far away.

He ran over in a hurry, but Dad didn't notice him yet, and walked forward on his own with a hoe on his shoulder.

I didn't expect my son to come back at this time, and there was no call in advance.

Sun Jie stood in front of his father and shouted, "Dad, didn't you see me?"

It was only after shouting like this that Father Sun, Sun Guoying, came to his senses.

He stopped, paused, and looked at Sun Jie in surprise.

The surprise didn't last long, and a smile soon surfaced on his face.

His eyes were full of light, he laughed and scolded: "You bastard, when did you come back? Why didn't you make a phone call before? This is a surprise?

Did you see your mother?Your mother has been nagging a few days ago, saying that she will call you to see when you will come back. She was talking about this yesterday, but she didn't expect you to come back today! "

Sun Jie took the hoe from Sun Guoying's hand and said with a smile, "I just got home and saw you before I went in.

I've been relatively free in the city these days, and I don't have much to do, so I'll come back and have a look! "

"Then why didn't you call before? You were so surprised!" Sun Guoying scolded with a smile.

"Hey, I did it on a whim, so I didn't call in advance. Besides, haven't I just come back?" Sun Jie laughed carelessly.

"Okay, okay, don't say this, go back first!"

Sun Guoying pushed open the door and walked in with Sun Jie.

Sun Jie casually leaned the hoe in his hand against the wall of the yard, and followed his father to the back room.

"Old lady, your son is back!"

Sun Guoying walked in the yard and yelled loudly, which could be heard in all neighborhoods.

"My son is back?"

Not long after the sound fell, Sun Jie's mother, Zhao Yaxiang, was wearing an apron and ran out in a hurry with flour in her hand.

Looking at Sun Jie who was following Sun Guoying, Zhao Yaxiang immediately smiled.

With the corners of his eyes raised, he trotted out and said with a smile on his face, "You kid, why don't you call ahead of time when you come back, really, come in!"

Zhao Yaxiang rubbed the flour on her apron, and quickly raised the curtain.

"Come on, why are you always like this? How can a son let his mother open the door curtain?" Sun Jie hurriedly opened the door curtain, pretending to complain.

"Hey, you said that, you are my son, what's wrong with me lifting the door curtain? It's only right and proper!" Zhao Yaxiang retorted, eyes full of doting.

No matter when, children are always the treasure in the eyes of parents.

Walking into the living room, Zhao Yaxiang looked at Sun Jie, and hurriedly said: "You two sit and talk first, and I will cook. I wanted to cook some noodles, but now I have to change it."

"Mom, noodles are fine. Your son is already tired of eating fish and meat outside all day long. Now you can eat some hand-rolled noodles! I have been thinking about this for a long time, and I have been craving it for a long time!"

Sun Jie hurriedly chased to the kitchen, stood at the door, and said with a smile.

Zhao Yaxiang smiled and said: "Really? Who still dislikes big fish and big meat? Besides, why don't I believe what you say!"

"I don't believe this. You have become rich. Didn't you transfer the money to your elder brother before? Now that you have money, it's just right to eat some big fish and meat!" Sun Jie said with a smile.

Hearing this, the smile on Zhao Yaxiang's face suddenly disappeared, and she said seriously: "Tell me honestly, how did you get that money?

I heard that the supermarket you listed and the nearby school were relocated, and there was no one there. How did you make money?
I also heard from your second uncle and aunt that you have paid back all the money you owed them?That's a lot, plus the money you gave us, tell me honestly, where did the money come from?
It's okay for people to be poor, if their luck is bad, they will always be unlucky and suffer in this life. As long as they walk the right way, as long as they walk upright and sit upright, even if they are poor, others can't find anything wrong with them.

You can't take those crooked ways because of money. Your father and I would rather you be poorer than do those things. "

"How could I do that kind of business? Don't you know who I am? With my courage, I'm not a crooked person!

As for how I got the money, it's your luck. I bought a handicraft for hundreds of dollars before, but I didn't expect it to be an antique. You sold it and made a lot of money! "Sun Jie patted himself on the chest and said vowedly.

Zhao Yaxiang didn't fully believe Sun Jie's words, how could such a pie-in-the-sky thing come across so easily?

After repeated questioning, Sun Jie kept saying the same thing, so he had no choice but to believe it.

But he kept telling Sun Jie to follow the right path and not to do those crooked things.

Sun Jie nodded again and again, repeatedly reassuring.

Back in the living room, I talked to my father for a while, then unloaded the supplements I bought from the car and carried them back.

There are quite a few of these things, a lot of bits and pieces.

Sun Guoying looked at these things piled up in the living room and repeatedly said it was a pity.

People of the older generation have this kind of thinking. They are still living a good life, have food and drink, and don’t worry about food and clothing. Why buy these things?Saving it there is better than anything else, and buying these things for nothing is just a waste of money.

What can Sun Jie do?He could only listen to Sun Guoying's scolding.

The rice was ready in no time, and the steaming hand-rolled noodles were sprinkled with a layer of oil and chilli, and served with garlic, that was a beauty!

Sun Jie sat in the living room, eating in a daze, comfortable and satisfied.

After eating two bowls of noodles, the tiredness on my body gradually eased.

He burped, drank another half bowl of noodle soup, and let out a long breath.

"It's comfortable! It has to be my mother!" Sun Jie lay on the somewhat worn-out sofa in the living room, stretching his waist with a contented expression.

What is happiness?At this moment, I am eating a bowl of hand-rolled noodles made by my mother with my father.

Lying on the sofa, without a human figure, like a paralyzed person.

Dad said a few times, Sun Jie just oh, and then moved casually.

It's been like this for so many years, if my father didn't tell me, Sun Jie would really not be used to it.

After Zhao Yaxiang cleaned up the dishes, the family of three sat in the living room, chatting about homework.

As we talked, we talked about Sun Jie's marriage.

"You're in your twenties, and you haven't seen anything lately? That elementary school classmate of yours has a second child!"

"It's not a big deal. In our village, everyone who grew up with him is basically married, and now he is the only one left!"

"Don't look too high, don't just look at the face, but look at whether you can live a life, and being able to live is a blessing."

"That's right, you can't be too ambitious, you have to be down-to-earth!"

Mom and Dad sang together, and a marriage urging drama unfolded.

Sun Jie faltered, not knowing how to answer.

Is it possible to tell them that your son is promising, able to travel through the late Ming Dynasty and modern times, and now you are planning to become king and hegemony, and what you are doing is earth-shattering, how can you be trapped by the love of your children?
If he said this, his parents would only think he was talking nonsense.

"Well, what about my second uncle?" Sun Jie hurriedly interrupted, his voice a little louder.

Sun Guoying said: "It's still the same. Your second uncle originally said that he wanted to change the car, but your younger brother graduated from college this year, and it is estimated that he will not change the car in a while. There is a high probability that he will save it to help his brother get a down payment for a house. .

Now in this world, without a car or a house, which girl would be with you?However, you don't have to worry, your parents don't have much ability, but they also saved you a lot of money. I didn't spend any of the money you gave last time.In addition, your mother and I have saved for so many years. Although it is not enough for the full amount, it is more than enough for a down payment!

By the way, how is your car loan payment going?This thing can't be bad, it will affect the mortgage in the future! "

Sun Jie hurriedly said: "Don't, don't. You two don't care about me. Those money is your pension money. I can't touch it. I can figure out my own affairs.

You don't need to worry about the car loan, I've already taken care of it.Don't worry about money anymore. "

Zhao Yaxiang became anxious all of a sudden, "You child, you can figure out your own affairs on your own. You have parents, and you are not an orphan. It is only natural for us to help you, and you are not allowed to say such things in the future!"

Sun Jie was speechless for a while, only feeling that there was something stuck in his chest.

"Let's not talk about that, how are the crops at home? Are they okay?"

Sun Jie hastily changed the subject again.

Sun Guoying said casually: "It's okay, the potatoes were only planted a few days ago, and there shouldn't be any problem with the rain this year, it should be about the same.

The wheat can be harvested in another one or two months, and this year there is no heavy wind and rain, which is not bad! "

Potatoes are generally planted in spring and autumn. In most cases, spring is selected in March and April, and autumn is planted in September and October.

The environmental climate in these two time periods is very suitable for potato germination and rooting, but the environmental climate in different regions is different, and the cultivation time is also different.

In Northwest China, farming is basically carried out in April and May.

Now it is the first ten days of May, which happens to be the time for potato cultivation.

Sun Jie's eyes lit up, and he said nonchalantly, "Is it difficult to grow potatoes? I haven't been on the ground for a long time, and I don't know how to grow potatoes better!"

Although he is an authentic rural person, Sun Guoying personally handles the detoxification and germination of potatoes. Sun Jie naturally does not know the rules and regulations of potato cultivation, but only knows a general idea.

"What's so difficult about growing potatoes? It's nothing more than detoxification and germination. Your father and I have been planting potatoes for so many years, not just to show you, you can do it with your eyes closed!" Sun Guoying said confidently.

This is the truth. After dealing with the land for half his life, Sun Guoying is a good hand at farming.

In the following time, Sun Jie made indirect remarks and kept clichéd from his father.

But time is limited, and not many can be set out.

The time passed by one minute and one second, and it was already eleven or twelve o'clock in the blink of an eye.

Back in his own house, Sun Jie took advantage of his memory to record all the points his father said.

This alone is not enough, the next morning just after dawn, Sun Jie followed his father to the field.

While doing farm work, he chatted with his father, asking around.

Sun Jie has been in school for so many years. Since he was in junior high school, his parents stopped letting him do farm work, and he had to focus on his studies.

I haven't been in contact with farm work for many years, and I have almost forgotten many things. Naturally, it will take some time to get familiar with it.

In the next few days, Sun Jie asked side-by-side questions during the day and recorded them at night.

If it wasn't for the news that the package had arrived, Sun Jie would have stayed for a few more days.

Well drilling rigs and pressurized water pumps are almost in place, and it is time to get them until the end of Ming Dynasty.

I simply packed up, left some money, and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he offered money to renovate the house, but his parents refused.

Judging from what they said, it is "except for parents, no one in the whole world expects you to be well. If the house is well repaired, people will be jealous", "Parents are old, no matter how good they live. It's useless." "Save money and spend it. After getting married, there will be places to spend money. We are getting older, and spending money will be wasted."

Some ordinary words made Sun Jie feel bad.
