It was evening, and people who went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots came back one after another.

On this day, Li Shaoguo gained a lot and dug up a bag of winter bamboo shoots full of snakeskin bags, which made him feel all addicted to it.

After having supper with his elder brother and sister-in-law, Li Shaoan came to the Wang family.

The person who opened the door was Wang Changgui. When he saw that Li Shaoan was visiting, Wang Changgui showed excitement on his face and hurriedly pulled Li Shaoan into the house.

"Shaoan, why are you here? Have you eaten? Why don't you come again?"

"No, I've eaten it, I just came here to talk to Xiangxiu."

Wang Changgui heard that Li Shaoan was coming to find his daughter Xiangxiu, and his expression was a little disappointed. He thought that Shaoan was coming to talk to him all night, but he ended up looking for Xiangxiu.

Wang Xiangxiu, who was in the side room, heard the movement in the main room, opened the door and saw that it was Li Shaoan who came. She immediately said to Li Shaoan: "Don't stand stupidly outside, come in quickly."

Li Shaoan and Wang Changgui smiled, stepped over the door and opened to Wang Xiangxiu's room.

The two sat down and Wang Xiangxiu asked, "I didn't have time to say it during the day. What method of mechanized farming you are talking about?"

Li Shaoan said: "Agricultural technology is changing with each passing day. In the past, we had to rely on cattle to plow the fields, but now we don't have to rely on cattle to solve the problem by relying on machines."

With a creaking sound, the wooden door of the room was pushed open, and Wang Changgui's face appeared behind the door.

Wang Xiangxiu looked at Wang Changgui in confusion, "Dad, what are you doing?"

Wang Changgui walked in with a fruit plate in his hand and smiled, "I saw you two talking inside, so I thought of getting you some snacks and snacks for you, and chatting while eating."

Wang Xiangxiu looked at Wang Changgui in disbelief. The sun was coming out from the west. Her father would never do any housework at home. The job of bringing tea and water to guests was done by her mother or her sister-in-law. Why did Wang Changgui get started with it personally today?

"Shao'an, what's going on with mechanized farming you just mentioned?"

As expected, something abnormal will happen. Wang Changgui came in with a fruit plate, not suddenly wanted to work for his wife, but wanted to hear what Li Shaoan and his daughter Xiangxiu said.

Seeing him bringing a chair in his own hands and sitting around the table with Li Shaoan and Wang Xiangxiu, he had no intention of going out again when he came in.

What Li Shaoan said was not a secret. Wang Changgui wanted to find out the truth, so Li Shaoan told them openly.

"Uncle Changgui, what I mean by mechanized plowing is to use machines to replace cattle to plow the fields."

"What machine can still plow the fields?"

Wang Changgui is full of mist and he has never heard of using machines to plow the fields.

Li Shaoan explained: "Uncle Changgui, times are changing, and science and technology are also developing rapidly. In the past, people used ox to plow the fields, but now they have invented machines. With this thing, not only do they need to eat grass and don't get sick, but they can work day and night as long as they are given oil. It is much more efficient than the original ox plowing."

"Really, there is such a machine?"

"Uncle Changgui, think about the tricycle. Before the tricycle, did the village use cattle to pull the cart? The land plowing machine is similar to this. It is to leave the things that could only be done by oxen before to the machine."

By saying this with the example of tricycles and ox carts, Wang Changgui could immediately imagine the general situation of the plowing machine.

Wang Changgui is also a person who has used both ox carts and tricycles, so he knows more about the advantages of machines over cows. If there is really a plowing machine to plow the fields, then there is nothing wrong with cows.

"Where can I buy the thing you mentioned?"

"This is a new thing. There is no place to sell it in the county town, but there are agricultural machinery factories in the city."

"You mean you have to go to the city to buy this ploughing machine, right?"

"Yes, I have to get it back from the city."

Wang Changgui couldn't wait. He wanted Li Shaoan to take him to buy a plowing machine now. He wanted to see what that thing looked like.

Wang Xiangxiu was also the first time she heard about the concept of ploughing field machines. She felt it was as novel as her father and wanted to see what this thing looked like.

"Or what if we go to the city tomorrow?" Wang Changgui was dancing.

"Uncle Changgui, you are more anxious than me." Li Shaoan said with a smile.

It was Li Shaoan who contracted the village's fields, and Li Shaoan was responsible for the farming after the beginning of spring, but Wang Changgui seemed to be thinking about this matter more than Li Shaoan.

Wang Changgui laughed and said, "I am the village chief. There are always more snacks in the big and small things in the village. You have to contract all the more than 300 acres of land. It is still a big event in the whole village. Seeing that you have not made any noise yet, you said, how can I not be anxious?"

Wang Xiangxiu nodded from the side and said, "You don't know that you haven't returned to the village for a long time. My father walked to the ridge of the fields during the day and looked at the fields and worried."

Wang Changgui said, "That's not right. I'm just waiting for you to come back. I want to ask you clearly, but I've been looking forward to you."

Li Shaoan smiled and said, "How about this, wait a few more days."

"Why are you waiting for a few days? Without further ado, I'm worried that the farming season will pass." Wang Changgui said anxiously.

"Uncle Changgui, don't worry, you won't delay the farming season, mainly because I have something to deal with." Li Shaoan was worried about his elder brother Li Shaoguo's condition. The family had already finished the New Year in Tieshanwan, so he had to take his elder brother to the hospital for physical examination immediately.

"What's the matter? Can you help me?" Wang Changgui asked.

"About my elder brother, he is feeling a little uncomfortable recently, so I have to take him to the county for examination." Li Shaoan said, "However, in three days, we will meet in the county town in three days, and then we will go to the city's agricultural machinery factory together."

Wang Changgui slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, there's no problem, I'll just listen to you."

Wang Xiangxiu glanced at Wang Changgui and winked and said, "Dad, Li Shaoan has said everything he wants to say. Should you go out too? I still have company matters to tell Li Shaoan."

"Hehehe... your daughter... can't stand me and Shaoan for a few more words?" Wang Changgui smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, I'll go out and you two will talk, I won't bother you."

When he learned that Li Shaoan had already made up his plan, Wang Changgui finally let go of his heart and no longer had to worry about the fields in the village. He was thinking about going to the city in three days.

When Wang Changgui left, Wang Xiangxiu looked at Li Shaoan and asked, "The farming machine you said you wanted to buy must not be cheap."

Li Shaoan nodded and said, "It's really not cheap. When I went to the city last time, I asked about it. A tillage machine costs nearly a thousand yuan."

Wang Xiangxiu worried, "More than 300 acres of land, one tillage machine is not enough. Do you have that much money in your hands?"
