Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system

"Sister Lin, do you also think that I am very capable?" Meng Qianqian suddenly asked.

Lin Jiu was silent for a while, "People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. You just did what you thought was beneficial to you. It is human nature to pursue interests, as long as it does not violate the legal and moral bottom lines. "

[No, what does Lin Jiu mean by this? Does she think Meng Qianqian did it or not? ]

[Many people believe that Meng Qianqian’s termination of her contract with Su Ziyang resulted in poor resources for herself. Later, she lost some resources because of plastic surgery, and she thought Meng Qianqian did it herself. Lin Jiu's answer is that it comes down to the pursuit of interests. Just like in the early years, some college students gave up their good jobs in the city and went back to the countryside to farm in the mountains, and then lost all their money. Relatives don't understand, so they think it's a mistake. ]

[I kind of understand it. It’s about pursuing profits. If you get relative benefits, everyone will praise you as a successful person. But if you fail, you will be ridiculed and called a fraud. Right! ]

[In other words, Lin Jiu did not think that Meng Qianqian was guilty, but that Meng Qianqian failed in pursuing higher interests. ]

Lin Jiu ignored Meng Qianqian who was meditating on the side and took a sip of water before continuing to cut rice.

There are a total of ten acres of Chong'an tribute rice, and now only two acres are left unharvested. The village has left one acres for the program crew to record the program, and the remaining one acres are harvested by the villagers themselves, which is also a comparison.

Lin Jiu looked at the progress of the other people. On the female guests side, Lin Jiu and Meng Qianqian were faster, making Yan Bingbing faster. On the male guests side, except for Lu Kai, the speed was a little faster. , Lu Ming and Du Dongting are both slow.

Needless to say, Du Dongting, both Gu Dongting and Du Dongting, have lived the life of young masters since they were young, and they have never done such farm work. Lu Ming, on the other hand, was born after the 1995 generation. At that time, none of the better rural children had ever done farm work, let alone him who had been living in the countryside.

Lin Jiu cut the rice allocated to her, then turned around and called Yan Bingbing to cut it, and then Meng Qianqian.

"When you two are tired, go and rest for a while. I'll go to the male guest to cut." Lin Jiu said to the two of them.

"Well, you go over first, and we'll come over later." Meng Qianqian nodded.

Lin Jiu walked to the male guest and didn't say anything. Instead, she bent down and started cutting the rice. After Meng Qianqian and Yan Bingbing rested for a while, they also joined the rice cutting team.

"Boom boom boom."

The villagers cranked up the gasoline threshing machine, and the sound made Lu Ming look over there curiously.

"When I was a kid, one of my favorite things to do was to sit on the mixing bucket when harvesting rice. At first, when this kind of gasoline threshing machine didn't come out, it was the kind of hand-cranked threshing machine. I watched the adults They rocked it very interestingly, and we children followed the adults out of curiosity, wanting to touch it, but the adults couldn't drive them away."

There was a bit of nostalgia in Lu Kai's eyes.

"Also, I like to push and mix buckets with adults." Meng Qianqian continued.

[Haha, I didn’t expect that my brother and we had the same childhood. ]

"Sister Lin, Teacher Lu Kai and I are children from the countryside, so it's not surprising that we can do farm work. I'm a little curious about why you work so fast?"

"I also stayed in the countryside for a few years when I was young, and then returned to the city when I was in elementary school. A few years ago, I went to the mountains to teach and saw the villagers harvesting rice, and I also learned some from it."

When the program team saw Lin Jiu and the others had finished harvesting the rice, they appeared in front of them again.

[He's here, he's here, the show crew is here with props to cause trouble. ]

[Hand-cranked threshing machine, this kind of antique program set can also be found. ]

[To make everyone laugh, this threshing machine is an old antique from my family. It has been kept in the attic of my old house. I didn’t expect that it would be dug out. ]

"Congratulations to all our guests for harvesting the rice allocated to you. Each guest received ten work points. In addition, because the three female guests once again displayed the collective spirit of helping each other, the three female guests will be awarded an additional ten work points. .”

"Okay, now that the rice has been cut, the next step is to cut and thresh the rice. Originally, we were asked to beat the mixing bucket, but you are lucky. There is also a hand-operated threshing machine in the village, so you can make do with it. !”

"Let me try." After the threshing machine was set up, Lu Kai stepped forward and shook it, and the threshing machine made a mechanical sound.

"It hasn't been used for a long time. Let's add some oil to the axle and gear first, otherwise it will be difficult to shake." Lin Jiu walked to the branch secretary and asked for some gasoline and a grease gun.

I found a rag and wiped all parts of the threshing machine with gasoline, and then greased the axle.

This time Lu Kai shook it again, and the threshing machine was indeed much lighter.

At this time, the old farmers in the village came over to teach everyone how to thresh rice. After seeing that everyone had learned it, the old farmers stood aside and watched. If there were any that were not completely threshed, they picked them up and threshed them again.

[After watching it for so long, farmers are really working hard. ]

[A meal and porridge are hard to come by, please cherish the food. ]

[I feel ashamed for wasting food before. ]

The hand-operated threshing machine is a laborious job. Lin Jiu and the other six took turns shaking it. At about 6:30, the branch secretary finished threshing the grains and pushed the gasoline threshing machine to this side. The two machines worked at the same time. In half an hour, the whole acre of land was threshed.

Put all the rice into bags and put it on an independent cart. Everyone pushed and pulled the rice together and pushed it all back to the courtyard dam.

After returning to her residence, Lin Jiu slumped down on the bamboo chair. At this time, she didn't even think about moving.

"I'm so tired. I never thought farm work would be so tiring." Yan Bingbing beat her hands.

"Rub it first and take a hot bath at night, otherwise your hands will feel even worse tomorrow morning." Meng Qianqian rubbed Yan Bingbing's wrist.

"very sour."

"All the guests performed well. Today, the experience of rural life in the 1960s and 1970s is over. Now, I will announce your work points."

"The one with the most work points is Teacher Lin, who has fifty work points, Teacher Yan and Teacher Meng have forty points, and the other guests have thirty work points. Now, you can use your work points to exchange for ingredients and food."

Lin Jiu looked at the price list of food and ingredients. Chong'an tribute rice: 40 work points per catty, rice: 20 work points per catty, flour: 15 work points per catty, handmade noodles: 15 work points A handful of water-milled glutinous rice flour: fifteen working points per catty, red sweet potatoes, fifteen working points per catty, potatoes, five working points per catty. Farmhouse sausages cost twenty labor points per section. Eggs, ten labor points per pound...
