Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

"What's up?"

Lin Heng looked at his father.

"Of course it's about building a house. I've discussed this with the village committee and got approval.

I asked someone to check the date again in the morning. There will be a Feng Shui master to check the direction of the house in the next two days. The official groundbreaking is scheduled for the eighth day of the lunar month, which is four days later. "

Father Lin paused and continued: "I heard that you chose the land to the west this morning?"

"Yes." Lin Heng nodded.

"Just think about it yourself." Father Lin nodded and said, "You and Brother You are both here, and we are now discussing how to build the house."

"How to build it and how big to build it now depends on the two of you. Each of you has about 400 square meters of land to build a house." Father Lin said.

"Dad, wait a moment."

After Lin Heng said this, he went into the bedroom to get a pen and paper and started drawing. A simple floor plan was quickly completed.

"This is the blueprint for my house. Just build it according to this."

Lin Heng handed the drawing to his father, and his eldest brother and third father also gathered around to watch.

“I don’t plan to build a large building, just one hundred square meters is enough, leaving a yard at the front and back.

The house is 12 meters wide and 8 meters deep, with three bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one storage room.

Just leave three bedrooms and a storage room on the second floor. "

Lin Heng explained his thoughts and planned to draw the facade later.

He wants to increase the area and number of windows. The rural mud houses have poor lighting.

"As expected of junior high school, the pictures are very beautiful and the design is good, but the area feels a bit small."

Third father Lin Xutao commented with recognition on his face.

"Just think about it." Lin's father also showed a little surprise. Lin Heng's house is indeed well designed.

Nowadays, when building a house in rural areas, there are no drawings at all. Lin Heng's casual depiction also looks very professional.

"It's not too small. I don't like it to be too big. The two floors are definitely enough for a family to live in." Lin Heng said.

"Lin Heng, you can draw one for me too. The front will be similar to yours, and I will add two side rooms in the backyard for storage and other things."

The eldest brother Lin Yue said with a smile.

"Brother, if you like the house to be bigger, just build a courtyard type house."

Lin Heng thought for a while and said, it is popular here to have a small yard no matter how big or small.

"What is the type of courtyard house?" Lin Yue didn't know much.

"I'll draw it for you. You'll know just by looking at it."

Lin Heng got another piece of paper and drew a courtyard-type house for his eldest brother.

"It's like what I said, it's too weird and it's not easy to build."

Lin Yue took a look and shook his head.

"Okay." Lin Heng didn't say much and drew what his elder brother requested.

"Well, this is very good, just follow this." The eldest brother Lin Yue nodded with satisfaction.

"Thank you, brother, it's different to have an educated person in the family." Lin Yue patted Lin Heng's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Little things." Lin Heng waved his hand: "I will need your help when building a house later."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Lin Yue patted his chest and said, taking the drawings and going out to tell his wife the good news.

Father Lin held his granddaughter in his arms and looked at the drawings.

Lin Heng started doing his own thing - making a good bamboo fishing rod.

He had seen a video of bamboo fishing rod making in his previous life and planned to imitate one himself.

I couldn't catch any fish today, mainly because my equipment was not good, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch any fish.

He decided to try his hand at making a two-meter-long small fishing rod first, and used a hatchet to chop down a bamboo that had grown for more than three years.

He had bamboo not far from his house. He cut it down to the thickness of his thumb, three meters long, and removed the particularly thin tip, which was about two meters long.

Carefully cut off the branches without damaging the trunk, and you have completed the first step.

Now it can only be regarded as a bamboo, not a fishing rod.

Then, Lin Heng got some charcoal from the stove (kitchen).

Bake the bent part of the bamboo on the charcoal until it becomes soft and straighten it, then put it in water to cool down, repeat this process until it is straightened.

"Are you making a fishing rod?" Third father Lin Xutao watched Lin Heng's movements and gathered around.

"Yeah, try making one yourself."

Lin Heng said while adjusting the fishing rod.

"I know a place with purple bamboo. I'll get it later. How about you make one for me too?"

The third father smiled and said that it was obvious that he was also interested in fishing.

"Zizhu? Madam, how are you doing? Third father, can you dig one or two for me to raise?"

Lin Heng looked surprised. Purple bamboo is very rare. It would be great to make fishing rods.

"No problem, I'll dig it out for you in a few days." Third Dad smiled, patted his chest and said?

"Well."

Lin Heng nodded and continued to straighten, with his third father helping.

Before eating, it was finally done. Lin Heng clamped the straightened fishing rod with wooden boards and put it in the yard to dry and shape.

"Wash your hands and eat."

By this time, the meal was ready, and Mother Lin asked Caiyun to clear the table.

When Lin Heng went out to use the toilet, he found that the quarrel outside was not over yet. Both parties' voices were hoarse and they were still unwilling to stop. This was how much hatred they had accumulated.

"Lin Heng!"

Just when Lin Heng turned around and was about to go back to the house, a shout came from the distance.

He turned around and saw that there were three young men coming, about the same age as him, and they were his friends.

I guess after not looking for them for so many days, they came to the door on their own.

"What have you been doing these days? Why don't you come to see us?" The leader was Zhao Hu, the son of the village chief, who was dressed fashionably.

He dyed his hair golden and had a fashionable "roman hairstyle" in this era, which was long and slightly curly, with sideburns and a beard, giving people a sense of freedom, romance and rebellion.

The remaining two were named Jin Hai and Liu Sheng, both of whom were dressed very simply. Liu Sheng was his childhood friend, and the two grew up together and had a good relationship.

Later, he and himself were cheated by Zhao Hu and others, and they lived a very difficult life in the second half of their lives.

"Yeah, what have you been doing these days? Yesterday I caught a black snake and asked you to drink with me, but I didn't find anyone when I came." Liu Sheng said with a smile.

"Stop talking, let's go quickly, let's go to the town to play cards and drink, and go to the city to play in two days." Zhao Hu said impatiently.

"Yes, Brother Zhao is treating us, pack up and leave quickly." Jin Hai said with a smile. Compared with the village where there is no electricity, the town and the city are too attractive to young people.

At this time, Xiulan, Caiyun and Lin's mother came out after hearing the noise. Xiulan looked at Lin Heng quietly with her bright eyes without saying a word.

"You go, I won't go." Lin Heng shook his head.

This made Zhao Hu frown: "Is there something?"

"Yes, I have to make money to support my family. I won't go anymore. You go." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"What the hell, how much money can you make from growing crops?" Zhao Hu was a little angry, "Hurry up, I'll take you to the city to make a lot of money, isn't it more than what you make from farming here? Don't waste your education, I really need your help."

Zhao Hu only has primary school education, and he still values ​​Lin Heng.

"No." Lin Heng shook his head. He actually thought about continuing to hang out with Zhao Hu, and then using the advantage of his rebirth to trick him hard and avenge his past life.

But he couldn't bear to be separated from his family, so he finally decided to give up doing this. Revenge was not as important as family.

And when he had money, it would be easy to take revenge and trick him, so there was no need to be so anxious.

"You will regret your decision today if you have no ambition." Zhao Hu glanced at Lin Heng and turned around and left with his men.

He thought that Lin Heng would not be able to hold on for half a month and would go to find him. It was impossible for a young man to stay in this mountain valley.

Jin Hai and Liu Sheng also looked at Lin Heng in surprise. Liu Sheng couldn't help but approach and asked, "Did something happen?"

"No." Lin Heng shook his head, glanced at his childhood friend, and reminded him, "Listen to my advice, it's better to be down-to-earth."

"It's okay, anyway, I'm not married yet, it's okay to play for a few years." Liu Sheng waved his hand indifferently and left.
