Chapter 76 Oil Pressing Workshop
"Where does the equipment for the oil shop come from? It's probably not cheap. How can our team have so much money?"

The two quickly came to their senses and asked the most important question.

"We don't need new machines. Isn't there an oil pressing factory in the city? Let's go there and see if there are any machines that have been eliminated. The price will definitely be much cheaper than the new machines."

There is an oil pressing plant in the city, which is quite large, but the oil extracted there is not only responsible for the supply of the city, but also for other nearby cities.

If such an oil pressing factory only supplies this city, it may not be able to supply it, let alone other cities. Although there are some small oil mills in some counties and towns, they are all old-fashioned oil mills. , the oil yield rate is certainly not comparable to that of an oil press, which also affects the local oil price to a certain extent.

If the struggle brigade can really get even the obsolete oil-pressing machines, not only will the pigs have food to eat, but the brigade and the linked communes will have projects to increase their income.

"I think we can give this a try. Do we need to say hello to the commune first, and then we can go look for the machine?"

As soon as the captain heard that there was a solution to the machine problem, he was eager to try it.

"No, let's go look for the machine ourselves first, and wait until the machine is finalized. If the price is affordable for our brigade, we will pay for it ourselves, and the commune will just hook it up."

Zhong Zhiran looked at Zhang Yougen with some admiration. He was indeed someone who always hangs out in the commune. He figured out what was best for his team so quickly.

"Why? Let me tell you first, if the commune supports it, it might be able to contribute part of the money. The left and right have to be linked to the commune, isn't it the same?"

In fact, no matter who pays the money, when the oil mill makes a profit, the part of the money spent on buying the machine will be returned from the profit, and it does not involve who loses or takes advantage.

"If we buy the machine with our own money, then our team will have the right to speak and decide. When the oil plant opens, will we use workers? So it is better for us to make the decision ourselves."

Zhang Yougen's words are quite true. If the commune really interferes, like this time in recruiting teachers for the opening of primary schools, the commune will evenly distribute the rain and dew, and all brigades will take care of it.

At the very least, there is a standard for being a teacher: exams, but if an oil factory is looking for workers, what is the screening method?Don’t mess around!
"As long as the three of us know about this, don't talk about it outside. We can discuss it after the spring planting is completed."

Zhong Zhiran nodded. Setting up a factory could be done as easily as possible. Even if she planted a seed in their hearts this time, it would take root and sprout sooner or later.

…………

Zhong Zhiran was not tired at all this spring sowing. Except for the first two days of teaching, Zhong Zhiran had to sit on the tractor to guide all the time. Later, Tian Zeyu took her place.

Luo Bin originally learned the fastest among the students, but who would have thought that Tian Zeyu was even better than Luo Bin. He already understood the principles of machinery, so he was even more comfortable in operating it.

In the afternoon, Zhong Zhiran was responsible for sitting under the big tree at the edge of the field and looking at the field with his eyes. This was considered work, and he was blatantly lazy, but no one was dissatisfied with being like this. Who knows how capable he is.

"Children, come here and drink some water. Let's rest for a while before we start again!"

Li Cuihong came to deliver water to Zhong Zhiran, and everyone else came along. Before anyone else came, Li Cuihong handed Zhong Zhiran a bowl of water.

Zhong Zhiran took the water, her thoughts still lingering on Li Cuihong's "children". She felt inexplicably that the twelve people including herself seemed to be monkeys in Huaguo Mountain...

After drinking a bowl of water, Zhong Zhiran reluctantly put those strange thoughts behind him. "Auntie, why are you here? Who is taking care of the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law?"

"This child is less than a month old. It's time for him to eat and sleep. Both of them can take care of her. I'll go back after I deliver the water to you."

Zhong Zhiran didn't know much about children, so he nodded after hearing what Li Cuihong said.

“Are you going to get a little vegetable patch in your yard this year?”

When Zhong Zhiran and others built their houses, they all divided a piece of land for their own use, which could be used to grow some vegetables.

"Yes, I will also grow some vegetables this year."

"Okay, then ask your elder brother to bring out your share when they move the vegetable seedlings."

After a brief chat with Li Cuihong, she went back. If she hadn't reminded him, Zhong Zhiran would have forgotten about Cai Yangzi.

There are all kinds of vegetables in her space, but there is really no comparison with the vegetables grown by farmers here.

Take persimmons as an example. The persimmons in the space look big and colorful, but they taste hard, unlike those grown in the garden, which are sandy when opened.

This is called foreign persimmon. In addition to the common red persimmon, there are also large yellow persimmons. There is also a kind of persimmon that is still yellow-green even after it is mature, so it is said that thieves will not steal it.

When she first went to the countryside, she ate a lot of vegetables from Li Cuihong's house. The only pity was that she came at an unlucky time. At that time, many of the vegetables had already been sold out and she had not had a chance to eat them.

At that time, Zhong Zhiran told Li Cuihong that he wanted to save some vegetable seeds for planting next year. It was then that he realized that vegetable seeds need to be planted first and then transplanted.

Transplanting vegetable seedlings is actually quite troublesome. The first step is to wipe out the mud. Then divide the mud into equal squares. The small vegetable seedlings need to be transplanted into these mud lumps one by one. Weeding and watering are careful. After taking care of the vegetable seedlings, you can pick them up together with the mud lumps below when they are big enough, and then plant them in the vegetable garden. This can greatly increase the survival rate of the vegetable seedlings.

Zhong Zhiran felt that he was really too busy, and the eggs on his kang were about to expire. When he went back to eat at noon, Zhong Zhiran vaguely heard that there seemed to be movement in the eggs, and he might go back from work in the afternoon. , the chicks will all be nagging.

Moreover, it is approaching the 28th of April on the lunar calendar. That is the day when I want to make soybean paste, and I don’t know if I can succeed.

In addition, Zhong Zhiran also needs to get a chicken cage, and then find time to dig out the vegetable garden on his private plot.

In one afternoon, the last piece of land of the Struggle Brigade was finally plowed. The work of plowing the land was also declared successfully completed. A trainee also learned how to use a tractor in just a few days. Although he drove alone to the town It's not possible to go to a crowded place like this, but it's still no problem if it's in an open place.

The teaching has come to an end for the time being, and I will wait until I have the opportunity to teach more in the future. It will only be a matter of time before I become proficient.
