The little one's purse connects the two worlds, turning a desolate village into a paradise.

After lunch, Erzhu and Sanya took turns washing the dishes.

After everyone took a short rest, Ji Chuntao led Xinghua and Grandma Wang to Dr. Chen's courtyard to learn how to use the sewing machine.

Fang Tiesheng helped Ya Ya finish learning the second book of "King of Literacy" and also taught her pinyin again.

"Grandpa Fang, look, these characters all have pinyin! If I learn a few more pinyin, I can learn the whole 'King of Literacy' by myself!" Ya Ya pointed to a few vowels she recognized on the page, her eyes shining.

"Yes, from now on, our little girl won't need Grandpa Fang to teach her anymore; she can even be Grandpa's tutor."

"Don't worry, Grandpa Fang, I'll definitely teach you well!" Ya Ya patted her chest, full of confidence.

……

Xiong Bo held his brand-new toolbox with a look of pure delight.

This new toolbox has more stuff than the old one, including a large electric drill that the manual says can even drill through bricks and walls!

With this box, there are so many more things we can do.

Xiong Bo glanced at the various wires and pipes piled up in the yard, thought for a moment, and said to Qiao Chuan beside him, "Chuan girl, go and call the two new young men."

There are too many wires and pipes, and they're too heavy, so we have to use the available manpower. I heard those two young men are quite strong, but they look rather thin and bony; I don't know if that's true.

"OK."

Yan Erzhu and Yan Sanya had just followed Qiao Chuan into the courtyard and hadn't even had a chance to look around when the middle-aged man in the middle, carrying a large box, very familiarly assigned them tasks.

"Erzhu, take these two rolls of cable. Sanya, right? Take these two bundles of pipes over there. Chuanya, take the shovel and small parts. Come on, let's go to the bathroom in the back to get to work."

Erzhu and Sanya quickly responded.

The threads on the ground were all rolled into a large circle, looking quite heavy. Erzhu silently picked up one roll in each hand and casually slung it over his shoulder.

"Uh... Uncle, I can still take a little more. There are several more rolls on the ground. Do you want to take them with you?"

Sanya also waved the tube in her hand at Xiong Bo.

I don't know what material this pipe is made of. It looks solid but is hollow inside, and it doesn't feel very heavy when you pick it up.

"Uncle, I can still bring some."

Xiong Bo opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

There are several types of wires used for photovoltaic (PV) wiring. The main DC line coming from the PV panels has a thick oxygen-free copper core. There's also a dedicated grounding copper wire, used for grounding and lightning protection; it has a yellowish-green copper core. Finally, there are low-voltage control lines, with thinner cores, used to connect the inverter's signals.

There were many bundles of all kinds.

He was worried that the two young men would have trouble carrying it, so he specifically pointed to something that wasn't too heavy, especially Sanya, who looked like a child. Who would have thought...

This family is truly blessed with extraordinary talent.

"Uncle?"

"Oh my, you guys are really something. Alright, take as much of what's on the ground as you can!" Xiong Bo's eyes lit up, and he immediately gave the order without any hesitation.

Erzhu immediately got to work, with two bundles of cables hanging from each of his wrists and a pile of iron connectors and valve fittings in his arms. Sanya was not to be outdone, with rolls of plastic pipes stacked on her arms and two shovels in her hands, and she lifted them all up.

Now only Qiao Chuan was free, and could only collect the small tools that came with the sewing machine assembly, such as screwdrivers and utility knives.

"Walk!"

Seeing that the three of them had all taken their things, Xiong Bo called out to them.

Erzhu and Sanya followed Xiong Bo and Qiao Chuan blankly as they walked towards the backyard. From afar, they saw several eye-catching white-walled huts, completely different from ordinary mud-brick houses.

The brother and sister had never seen such a room before. The larger one looked big enough to fit a bed, but the smaller ones looked too small to even lie down in, and they had no idea what they were used for.

The two were filled with curiosity, but dared not ask any questions, silently carrying their belongings and keeping up with the pace. The further they went, the more novel objects they encountered. On the ground were black boards with small squares drawn on them, and strange lines of various colors extended from them. Following the lines, there were several strange square boxes with glowing symbols printed on them, which changed from time to time.

Erzhu and Sanya were so busy looking around that they kept wondering what these things were.

Is this still the Lotus Village they remember?

"Alright, you can put everything in the open space now, be gentle. Don't touch these wires and boxes over there, they're electrified. Touching them will result in something like what happened by the well last night—at best you'll faint, at worst… You two wait until my master has arranged the tasks before you start." Qiao Chuan instructed the two, deliberately emphasizing the serious consequences.

After saying that, he quickly and nimbly climbed up the hillside behind him.

The cement bases on the slope where the photovoltaic panels were to be installed had dried and hardened. She checked them over and over and nodded to Xiong Bo.

Xiong Bo, carrying his toolbox, huffed and puffed as he climbed the slope. He then waved to the brother and sister, "You two, bring the wire over here. Be careful not to step on it!"

Yan Erzhu tiptoed carefully; the feeling of being electrocuted was truly unpleasant, and he didn't want to experience it again.

When they reached the top of the slope, Xiong Bo had already opened his precious toolbox and was squatting on the ground picking out fixing screws. Seeing the two of them coming over, he looked up and said, "Put the wire on the ground and watch carefully. I'll show you how to do it."

As he spoke, he picked out a thread and a section of pipe.

"Start digging a trench from this location, about two hand widths deep. Then thread the cable through this white pipe and protect it. Watch carefully, thread the cable through the pipe from beginning to end like this, then put it in the trench and cover it with soil."

Erzhu and Sanya nodded repeatedly.

"Uncle, we understand now."

"My surname is Xiong. You can call me Uncle Xiong or Master Xiong. Feel free to ask me anything you don't understand."

"Okay, Master Xiong, I'm good at this physical work of digging ditches. I guarantee I'll dig them quickly and neatly!" Erzhu replied loudly.

After giving his instructions, Xiong Bo slid down the earthen embankment to the flat ground. He first had to completely disconnect the power to the solar panels, then disassemble the panels and reassemble them neatly onto the cement base on the slope.

Next to the original inverter control unit, Qiao Chuan used wood ash to create a square frame, which was the small power distribution room that was to be built next.

Master Xiong learned this professional term from a book.

In that area, electrical appliances cannot be exposed to water, so many people build a special room to house their machines.

Once the power distribution room is built, the cables will be buried along the trench, and electricity will be brought to every household in the village.
