Chapter 724: Spring Plowing Ended

After testing Wang An's family's rice transplanter, everyone tested Wang Li's rice transplanter as well.

Because the two rice transplanters used the same modification method and the walking tractors used as the driving force were also new, the test results were no different; in any case, everyone was very satisfied.

Immediately after, both rice transplanters started working together, and the speed of transplanting was staggering, simply ridiculously fast.

Three hours later, this paddy field, which was 15 acres in size, had all been transplanted.

However, at this moment, everyone was covered in black mud, and even their hair and heads were stained with a lot of mud and water.

It was just that this point was unavoidable.

Because when the walking tractor moved forward in the mud and water, the mud thrown up by the wheels would fly everywhere.

Whether it was the driver or the person standing on the rice transplanter organizing the rice seedlings, they were all covered in mud spots, and the person organizing the rice seedlings was always dealing with mud, so it would be abnormal not to be stained with mud and water.

Wang Daliang looked at the paddy field that had just been transplanted and said with excitement and emotion: "Machines are really too fast. I thought we would have to work on this field for three or four days."

Wang Dazhu replied with a smile:

"Yeah, who knew we'd finish in three hours, hahaha..."

At this moment, Liu Guilan was also very happy and said with a mix of criticism and praise:

"Don't say it, Xiao An, this lazybones who is lazy to death, really found a logic in his laziness. Look at these rice seedlings, how well they are transplanted, fast and good."

Shen Wei looked at Wang An secretly from time to time. Although she didn't say anything, the admiration and spring in her eyes had almost turned into something substantial.

In fact, this illicit relationship between Wang An and Shen Wei was not only noticed by Wang Dazhu and his wife, but also by Wang Daliang and his wife long ago.

Of course, it couldn't be excluded that everyone in Caoshan Tun had noticed it.

You must know that Shen Wei was an educated youth and had no kinship with Wang An's family; simply put, she was just a person from the same village.

And there were several widows like Shen Wei in the village, so why did Wang An's family only take care of Shen Wei? Most importantly, Shen Wei's family only had her as a strong laborer, and as for livestock, there was only a donkey that could barely be called a large animal. To be honest, with such conditions, it could be said that in any village, she would be an object people avoided.

The reason for this was that someone like Shen Wei was a bona fide burden.

But then again, although she was a burden, there was certainly no shortage of men who wanted to do something with her, but whether they could take responsibility after "finishing" was another matter.

So, although Shen Wei felt her gaze was very hidden, both Wang Dazhu and his wife and Wang Daliang and his wife had actually noticed it long ago.

It was just that Shen Wei was a smart woman; she never talked too much in front of others and just worked silently like a small transparent person.

It was precisely this smart approach of Shen Wei that made everyone unable to harbor any hostility toward her.

After a while, Wang Dazhu suddenly muttered to Wang Daliang:

"15 acres in 3 hours, that means 1 hour for two machines can transplant 5 acres, so one machine in 1 hour can do 2.5 acres?"

Wang Daliang thought for a moment and nodded: "Yeah, one vehicle can transplant 25 acres a day if things go well."

Wang Dazhu blinked and calculated:

"Then if we work a bit harder today, wouldn't our three families' 40-plus acres be finished?"

At this time, Wang An, who was checking the rice transplanter, suddenly interjected:

"We can't finish today. Father, the wire scraper you made got a bit deformed. If we keep working, the field will be missing seedlings. We have to go back and replace it."

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li immediately said: "Mine is the same. The hardness of this wire doesn't seem to be enough. Now these two gears are just catching the edge and are about to lose their grip."

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously gathered around, and everyone's face showed an anxious expression.

The main thing was that they had just tasted the efficiency and charm of the rice transplanter, but the rice transplanter had actually developed a problem.

Liu Guilan asked with a worried face:

"Dazhu, can this still be repaired?"

Wang Dazhu looked at the deformed wire and said with a frown:

"It's fine, it can be repaired. It won't delay the work in the afternoon, but we'll have to prepare a few more scrapers for transplanting in the future."

Bending the wire again, Wang Dazhu said helplessly: "Alright, let's go home and talk about it in the afternoon."

Just like that, having only transplanted this one field, and it wasn't even noon yet, everyone went home.

It must be admitted that this kind of mechanical part was simply not a problem that could be completely solved with a pair of pliers and a piece of wire.

Fortunately, the "synchronizer" that Wang Dazhu figured out could be replaced at any time, and the cost was just a piece of wire.

Two days later, with Wang Dazhu replacing several synchronizers, the three families' paddy fields were finally all transplanted.

Of course, the end of the paddy fields also marked the end of the three families' spring plowing.

The reason it was called barely finished was that the barren mountains and land contracted out by the village were currently in a state of temporary stagnation because everyone was busy with spring plowing.

Simply put, including the village cadres, everyone was busy planting their own population land and no one could attend to the contracting of barren mountains and land.

However, for Wang An's family, although spring plowing was over, they were even busier.

Because Wang An's family's new house was about to start construction! For the construction of the new house, the blueprints in Wang An's hands had been modified again and again, and he didn't know how many times they had been modified.

However, for Wang An at the moment, bringing the crawler tractor back was the top priority.

Because Wang An didn't intend to dig the foundation manually; he intended to use a bulldozer to push out a large pit directly.

Anyway, no matter what, a large pit had to be dug in advance; after all, the "earth dragon" (underground heating system) had to be dug in advance.

Early this morning, urged by Mu Xueqing, Wang An finished his meal, put a handful of candies in his pocket, and rode the sidecar to his father-in-law's house.

The main thing was that he had been very busy these days and hadn't given the scar removal medicine to Mu Xueli yet.

The key was that over the past few days, the scar on Wang Li's face had faded significantly, which proved that this scar removal prescription was indeed very effective.

Therefore, Mu Xueqing was thinking about her younger brother.

But this was human nature, and there was nothing wrong with it.

When Wang An arrived at his father-in-law's house, the happiest person was actually his sister-in-law, Mu Xueting.

Although her father-in-law's house was no longer what it used to be and could be said to have all kinds of delicious food, Mu Xueting just liked being fed by her brother-in-law.

Seeing Wang An for the first time, Mu Xueting dived directly into Wang An's arms.
