The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside
Chapter 185 In full swing
Today’s task is to harvest sorghum. The men are responsible for cutting and the women are responsible for tying up the cut sorghum.
Some are responsible for picking the bundled sorghum back, while others are responsible for beating out the sorghum in the drying field.
Tasks were assigned one by one, and the villagers acted independently under the leadership of their respective team leaders.
Zhou Ziwen and his mushroom team were assigned to the sorghum field, but before going to the sorghum field, they needed to go to the mushroom house to water and ventilate the mushrooms.
There wasn't much going on in the mushroom room. The ten members of the mushroom team completed the basic maintenance in just over half an hour.
When things were almost done here, Zhou Ziwen led his team members back to the production team. They first went to the warehouse to pick up tools such as sickles and burdens, and then came to the sorghum field to start their work.
Zhou Ziwen was not very familiar with these tasks. Fortunately, his team had familiar villagers and team members to help, and Zhou Ziwen and the others started working smoothly.
In the sorghum field, there is a large area of bright red sorghum, each one taller than a person. According to the villagers, there are two methods of harvesting sorghum: whole plant harvesting and ear harvesting.
In their village, the whole plant is generally harvested. Since these sorghum stalks have to be taken back anyway, it is better to harvest them all at once to save trouble.
In the sorghum field, the men Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Chaoyang were responsible for harvesting, while the women were responsible for tying up the sorghum they harvested and then letting others pick it back.
Next to their mushroom group, there were also many villagers working.
Seeing this enthusiastic look, Zhou Ziwen also became motivated.
Humans are social animals and are easily influenced by the group. This energetic spirit also infected Zhou Ziwen.
Zhou Ziwen had never cut sorghum, but after seeing other people's operations, he imitated them and quickly became proficient.
Bending over, Zhou Ziwen held the sorghum stalk in his hand and the sickle in his right hand, cutting into a nest.
After cutting a nest of sorghum stalks, Zhou Ziwen did not let go. He took the opportunity to hold the new sorghum stalks in his hand and waved the sickle in his hand again.
He continued like this, and when the sorghum stalk in his hand was full, he stood up and squared the sorghum stalk in his hand on the ground behind him.
Behind him, Chen Qiaoyi followed closely. At the same time, he bent down to collect the sorghum stalks he placed on the ground and tied them into small handfuls.
When a small handful of sorghum stalks had been collected, she would tie them together with the sorghum stalks collected by others into a bundle with hemp rope and let people pick them back.
Of course, girls are weak, so they cannot be used for binding work, which is done by the sorghum pickers.
Zhou Ziwen has super physical fitness and fast movements, which is especially suitable for cutting sorghum.
Compared with picking sorghum, cutting sorghum is more tiring work.
After all, cutting sorghum requires bending all the time, which is a test of waist strength.
People with weak waist strength will get backache after doing it for a while, and the feeling is very sore.
Here, Zhou Chaoyang wanted to show off his strength at the beginning, but after working for a while, he just started picking sorghum.
Zhou Ziwen worked so fast that Chen Qiaoyi could hardly keep up behind him.
"Sister, please come to my side to help. Yiyi can't keep up by herself."
Seeing how tired she was and sweating profusely, Zhou Ziwen felt very distressed and hurriedly called Chen Shiying over.
"Coming!" Chen Shiying agreed, tied up the sorghum in her hands, and ran over.
"Team leader, you are working so fast, we can't even keep up." The team members nearby were secretly stunned.
Although I had always heard that their team leader was very powerful, it was only after seeing him with my own eyes that I realized that the rumors in the village were not exaggerated.
Zhou Ziwen cut sorghum very quickly. He bent down, swung the sickle, grabbed another sorghum, and swung the sickle again. When the sorghum in his hand was full, he turned around and put it down, and then continued harvesting.
During the whole process, my waist would not straighten.
But other people are different. They will cut twice to straighten their waists, and then cut twice and straighten their waists again, otherwise their waists will not be able to withstand it.
As native villagers, they naturally have ways to save effort.
But it is different for the new educated youth who have just arrived in the countryside.
It was not a good time for them to come. They encountered the autumn harvest as soon as they arrived in the countryside, and they didn't even have an adaptation period.
After starting work, the villagers in the same team simply taught them some skills and asked them to follow them.
There are not many skills in these activities, and most of the time I still rely on my own physical strength.
It's okay for those old educated youths. After all, they have been in the countryside for a year or two and have experienced autumn harvests once or twice.
But for newly arrived educated youths and those who have just arrived for a month or two, these tasks are difficult.
Some educated youths were holding sickles, and after working for a while they couldn't stand it any longer.
My waist hurts, my back hurts, my whole body hurts.
In addition, the leaves of sorghum stalks were pricked on the body, and the skin on the hands was also cut with some small cuts. The sweat stained them, and the taste was so sour.
Some educated youths worked for a while and began to shout that they couldn't stand it anymore and needed to rest. As a result, they were scolded by their team leader.
Scolding them that they are not even as good as a woman, if they can't do it, they can apply to the Educated Youth Office to leave, but when they come to the countryside, they have to follow the arrangements.
Educated youths certainly know that it is useless to apply to the Educated Youth Office. Without special reasons, their applications will not be approved.
Of course, if you have connections or can get some proof of illness, that's still okay.
For example, some educated youth contracted tuberculosis in order to return to the city, and the Educated Youth Office let them go back.
But this disease is contagious to people. Even if they go back, they cannot return to a normal life. It is equivalent to social death and their whole life is almost ruined.
After being scolded by the team leader, some educated youths were not convinced and shouted that they could not do it and were unwilling to do it.
After hearing this, the squad leader came to the educated youth with a sullen face and said, "Listen, we are not begging you to work. If you are willing to do it, do it. If you don't want to, just get out. You lent the production team to you Once the food is returned, we won’t have to work anymore.”
As soon as this came out, the educated youth who had been unconvinced just now instantly became angry.
Return the grain to the production team? So what does he eat?
If you don't work, you won't get any points. He is an educated youth who just came to the countryside and knows nothing. If he doesn't work, will he starve to death?
After just briefly thinking about the consequences of not working, this educated youth gave up.
"Humph!"
Seeing the educated youth surrendering, the squad leader snorted coldly.
How dare a spoiled little thornhead dare to change the world?
Perhaps the squad leader was unlucky. He had just suppressed the educated youth who wanted to cause trouble, but another riot broke out on the other side.
This time it was a female educated youth who made the fuss.
This female educated youth was much smarter. She didn't say anything, she just squatted on the ground and cried.
Several other educated youths with her tried to persuade her, but to no avail.
Seeing this, the squad leader's face turned even darker.
"What are you doing? You don't want to do it, right? OK, I'll make it happen for you. You don't have to do it now, just return the grain that the production team advanced to you. Including you educated youths, whoever returns the grain will not have to work in the future. ”
The squad leader looked at the educated youth around him with a cold face.
