Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 111 Prepare to Squat
He then went to Limin Supermarket to borrow an imported welding machine. The supermarket owner was quite considerate and lent it to him immediately when he knew he needed it.

I started preparing for work as soon as I got home. Today's workload is quite heavy.

First, I took out a large circle of thick iron wire from home. It would not be enough to just use iron sheets today, the excavator must be reinforced.

"Tiedan, cut the wire into 20cm straight strips. The more the better."

"it is good."

"Erhu, come with me to remove the door."

One side of the car door was deformed, so he used a cutting machine to cut the iron sheet around the buckle, and it took a lot of effort to remove the door.

The other door was still relatively intact and only needed to be repaired and painted, so it was not removed.

Then comes the sheet metal work on the front of the car. Nuts are welded one by one to the places where sheet metal is needed, and then the rope is passed through and started to be stretched to try to restore the iron sheet to its original position.

He doesn't care about the lines as long as they are not broken. He doesn't know how to deal with these things. If they are broken, it will be troublesome.

At this time, the third brother and the owner of Weimin Supermarket came over carrying glass.

"Dahe, thank you for your hard work." Another pack of cigarettes came in. Qin Dahe took the cigarette, nodded, and continued to work. This attitude made the two of them feel relieved.

Take out the wire that Tiedan had cut, as repairing the driver's seat is the most important thing.

The seat was also broken, so he took it apart and threw it on the ground. He would weld an iron bench later. This thing was not very sophisticated.

There was a big crack under the seat. It was a steel plate and he couldn't even remove it, so he could only repair it.

First, weld the gap with iron sheets. This time, weld continuously, three layers, to prevent it from cracking during work.

Then he took the wire and placed it horizontally, just like a doctor suturing a wound, to sew the iron sheet and steel plate together.

The working environment of an excavator is very harsh, and it often goes up and down hills. It must be sturdy, otherwise the driver's seat will fall apart, which is no joke.

These wires are made of wrought iron and are soft in texture. They are better than sheet iron in that they stretch when pulled instead of breaking.

More than fifty pieces of wrought iron wire were welded to the crack, and it would be difficult to break it unless it was hit by a telephone pole again.

Qin Dahe, who had entered the working state, only had work in his eyes and didn't even continue to greet the two of them.

"Erhu, the cutting machine."

"Ironhide."

"More iron sheets."

"Bring the wrenches and vises."

He kept giving orders and calmly carried out the repair work in an orderly manner.

The car door was first sheet metal-made and then welded with iron sheets. During the sheet metal-making process, I had to use a sledgehammer to smash it, and I did the whole process by myself.

After welding the iron sheet, use an angle grinder to grind it. If there are any uneven places, ask Erhu and others to get a bucket of putty powder and then fill it with putty powder.

The house has just been renovated, and there are still two buckets of putty powder that are unused.

Before painting, wrap the door frame with newspaper to prevent paint from contaminating other places.

After the paint was finished, everyone was stunned. The technique was really amazing. It looked like new.

At this time, the old carpenter and the silly boy also came over, and were stunned when they saw Qin Dahe getting into work mode.

After the car door is finished, it is time to fill in the front of the car. Use a hammer to knock off the nuts that have just been welded, then grind it, fill it with putty powder, and paint it.

There was no unnecessary movement throughout the process, and even the other door was simply repaired.

Halfway through his work, he suddenly remembered that Yanyan was going to work with him in his car today, and it was almost time for her to get off work.

"Just wait twenty minutes while I go pick someone up." He told her about how he had sent Yanyan to work today. It was already dark when the little girl walked back alone, and he was worried about her.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer, as long as it can be done by evening." The two people from Weimin Supermarket didn't mind.

"Sure, just wait until I get back to finish it."

As he said this, he hurriedly honked his tricycle and went to the grain station.

"Brother, why are you here just now?" Yanyan waited for a long time after get off work before she saw anyone, and it was almost dark.

"I was delayed today by something, but I will definitely not do that next time." Patting his chest, he told what happened today.

Yanyan took Qin Dahe's hand away angrily. It was covered in oil and was so dirty. She was sure he wouldn't pat his chest.

"Go back quickly if you have anything to do."

Qin Dahe chuckled, turned around and headed back.

When they arrived at the yard, it was already half past five. The couple had just returned from the fields and came over to join in the fun when they saw the excavator.

Yanyan said goodbye and went back. It was too late today, and if she didn’t go back, her family would worry about her.

The car was basically repaired. Qin Dahe crawled under the car to check it again. He found that everything underneath was intact and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Third brother, let's use the car first. When you have time, go to the county to check it out." Only then did he have time to put the cigarette in his mouth again and light it up by tilting his head.

"Cena, your skills are far better than Lao Huang's." The car was made to look brand new in just three hours.

With this kind of technology, the repair shops in town can't compare at all.

"Haha, regardless of anything else, I still admit that I'm the best at welding and cutting." He said proudly, and the others nodded. He was really awesome.

"Should I weld the bench for you or something?"

"I'll go get a soft stool and you help me weld it on. I can't stand the iron stool in winter." He was in a very good mood at the moment. After Qin Dahe cleaned up the car, it looked newer than before it was damaged.

The bench in the driver's seat must be fixed, otherwise it will be a disaster if it slips.

By the time the benches were finished and the glass installed, it was already six o'clock.

"No need to say anything else, just take the three hundred." After three hours, the owner of Weimin Supermarket paid three hundred yuan directly and also accepted the favor.

Qin Dahe was not polite either. If his technology was placed in his current factory, it would not be sold for less than a few hundred yuan.

Today, iron wire and putty powder alone cost dozens of yuan, and things like welding rods cost upwards of a hundred yuan.

"Third brother, these fifty pieces of wire are definitely enough. They won't break easily."

"Then can I not go to the county for an overhaul?" A repair in the county would cost at least several thousand yuan, and you would have to wait in line. For an excavator, time is money.

"How about this, when you're done, go check the wiring, and then I'll help you weld another layer of steel plate. That way it'll be safer."

There is no steel plate at home now. This kind of steel plate is too expensive and he can't bear to buy it for the tricycles.

The third brother went straight up to drive the car and tried it out. It was exactly the same as before, and even looked better than the previous car.

"Come to my house tonight for dinner and drinks, let's go."

Having said that, the father and son ignored the excavator and directly pulled the person away. Qin Dahe was a great help today.

"Wait a minute, I'll pack my things."

"Abao, you go ahead and I'll take care of the stuff." The mother smiled and waved her hand. Her son was in the spotlight again today.

My son made a big appearance today. There are people standing around the excavator, marveling at the fact that such a broken excavator was repaired in just one afternoon.

"With Dahe's skills, it's impossible to make less than 2,000 yuan a month in a large city."

"You still have to learn the skills, Ce." "Sister, does your Dahe still accept apprentices? My Liangzi has just graduated from junior high school and is ready to go out to work. It would be a good idea for him to learn welding at your house."

Upon hearing this, Mother Qin's face became even more proud. Her son had such skills that people were starting to want to send him as an apprentice.

"I can't make the decision on this. Dahe himself doesn't accept disciples. Erhu and the others have been friends since childhood and only did this together. If you meet them later, go ask them yourself."

"Is that so? Oh, if my Liangzi could have this skill, I would wake up laughing in my dreams." The woman who was speaking said regretfully.

From the tone of Qin's mother's voice, I knew that the apprenticeship would not succeed.

People in the countryside have to save their dignity, so how could they go up to someone and pester him?

The couple happily packed up their son's things, their mouths full of praise.

"The tuition fee of over 60,000 yuan is really worth it, Ce."

Little did they know that their son was still the same son, but his soul had traveled from more than 20 years later.

In his previous life, Qin Dahe spent a lot of effort to learn these skills. He relied on self-study for the first ten years and tried to please the master chefs in his own factory for the next ten years. Only then did he learn these skills.

Although he is the factory director, he often goes to the workshop to take the lead in work, otherwise it would not have been so easy to survive the three years of the epidemic.

During dinner, Qin Dahe took out all the money he had saved for the sports car and car repairs, and kept only 800 yuan for himself.

"So many?" I counted them. It was over nine hundred. "Did you keep any for yourself?"

"I've saved eight hundred, which is enough." He's made over a thousand in the past ten days. "By the way, Mom, when will you finish the work in the fields?"

"We only have this little land at home. It will probably take us two days to finish it."

"When I'm done with my work, I'll go get some corn to feed my crucian carp." The feed pellets at home had been used up long ago, so they had to use natural feed next.

Corn, tofu dregs and other things are nutritious and cheap, saving a lot of money compared to feed.

He doesn't have time to collect them now, so he can only wait until his father is free.

"Is collecting 500 kilograms enough?"

"It needs to be at least a thousand kilograms. The fish are growing fast now, so we need to feed them more." In autumn, crucian carp gain weight and have a big appetite.

The density of his pond is still small, so it doesn't matter if he feeds more.

In later generations, if you feed a little more crucian carp in the high-density crucian carp pond, the fish will immediately flip over.

He feeds corn by grinding it into corn crumbs, and then adds bran, gluten, tofu dregs and other things.

Gluten can not only be used to make bait, but also be added to feed. Its adhesiveness can bind small balls or granular feed together to prevent these powders from disintegrating and sinking to the bottom, polluting the water quality.

After dinner, the father and son went to Yuxi River to collect shrimp cages, which is also profitable.

"Dad, when are we going to go electrofishing?" Qin Dahe still wanted to go fishing. It would be boring to do welding every day.

I have to wait until the house is completely finished before I can go fishing. When I’m not busy, I’ll take people to Sancha River for a few rounds of fishing.

At the bottom of the dark slope, two people walked down one after the other along the path opened by his house.

"Don't worry, it's troublesome to build a big wooden boat, so don't delay your welding." Welding is more profitable than electric fishing.

"Most of the tricycles around here have been modified. There won't be any cars coming tomorrow."

"Let's talk about it later. Let's put down the shrimp cages first." The old man said impatiently and took ten shrimp cages to the side to put down the nets.

Qin Dahe knew there was no hope when he saw this. Oh! I'll call him over when the kid is not busy.

The wind was blowing so coldly that both the father and the son were reluctant to go into the water. They just stayed on the side and were too lazy to even dig a hole in the grass.

It hasn't rained during this period, so there must not be many river shrimps on the shore, but we have to cast the nets every once in a while, even if we can only make forty or fifty yuan, it's good.

Building a house at home is very expensive, and there is still a lot of money to spend on the wedding next year.

"Dad, how many nets did Xiao Xiang steal from you last time?"

"Five." The old man's face was dark. When his son was sick, he went fishing alone. He got ten shrimp cages, half of which were stolen.

Since he was not caught on the spot, he couldn't bully the weak and go to the house to make trouble.

"I'll call Waer, Erhu and the others to wait in Xu Village." Qin Dahe sneered.

Xiao Xiang's family does a lot of sneaky things in the surrounding area, but no one will stand up for them unless they beat someone up in front of everyone.

"Hit me five times in the face," the old man said bitterly.

Ten shrimp cages, he stole half of them. If he had only stolen one or two, he wouldn't have bothered to ask.

"give it to me."

At eight o'clock, four people in cotton jackets walked along the path beside the lake towards Xu Village.

There is no one on this road at night except San Ye, so no one can see it.

At this time, the wind began to blow, and the few people who went out in the middle of the night had to wear jackets to withstand the wind.

"Fuck, beat him up during the day. It's not like I haven't done it before."

I will definitely go to Xiao Xiang's house and wait for him to leave. It will be so cold that you will die if you don't move.

"We are all grown men now. If you beat someone up for no reason, you will be punished."

If you get caught beating someone, you won't be arrested by the police, but the branch secretary and others will definitely come to your house and scold you, which will be embarrassing.

Soon, the four of them arrived at the bamboo forest in front of Xiao Xiang's house. The wind was strong, so they had to find a place to shelter from the wind.

The bamboo forest was whistling in the wind, and no one noticed the four figures inside.

At this time, there were still many people walking around outside. Xiao Xiang's family lived by the big lake, so they had to wait for the opportunity.

"Dahe, what if he doesn't come out at night?"

"What should I do? Just leave it alone. This bastard is a night owl and never goes to bed early."

Another group of people came over and they were still talking about gambling.

"When will the treasure house open? It's already cold and those gamblers haven't come yet."

"Yeah, playing mahjong is not as fun as playing tricks."

"When the time comes, ask Qin Da to watch over the village entrance so we can have a good time. He was the one who notified us about the gambling crackdown last year."

Qin Dahe's expression was a little strange when he heard this. An old man still looking after a casino? Ce Na, it's really troublesome. No matter what, he can't let him do this this year.

If he gets caught, his son will never have a chance to take the civil service exam.

At the same time, he was also convinced that the old man had an astonishingly wide range of business, from car thieves and road robbers to casinos, as long as it could make money, he would get involved.

How could ordinary farmers dare to do such things, and those thugs in the county are not even worthy of carrying shoes.

By nine o'clock, several people were so cold that they couldn't stand it anymore and kept stretching their muscles inside.

At this time, a figure carrying a bucket was walking back from the other side of the lake. Qin Dahe was not sure if it was the target.

"Go wait at the intersection first, there's no one there now."

Everyone was feeling a little cold and couldn't stand it anymore, so they immediately followed him out after hearing what he said.
